This is a very good number, with thof, variety than usual. Perhaps the best article is a illustrated one, upon “ das and Gas-making,”K. J. W. Watson, who never writes upon a.subjet. until he has fully mastered everything connect!; with it. In another illustrated paper, J. RiS" Browne Bhowß the Underground of a Polish S'«l- Mihe. Next month, using pencil as well as pe," Dir, Browne will commenoe his Tour in Among the fiction here, we would notice “ Love b- Mishap, 7 ' a too-brief sketch,* by E. H\ Hoise, am “A Man’s Life,” by Miss Chocsbro’. “My Firib Sermon” is from the pen of Arthur Tham&9,anj reads as if it were true. Benson J. tossing gtvls an account of the Stamp Act. Congress of 1761 “ Waiting for the Children,” a poem for Thank! giving; has natural tenderness, and is appropriate!]; illustrated. Of the serial tales, two (Miss Mulochfi “Mistress and Maid," and Miss Evans’ “R'| mola,”) are nearly ended. Mr. Trollope's “SinJi House at Allington ” is in his most agreeable mai ner easy atd sensible, without much imagination. “ The Editor’s Drawer” is racy as ever, bat vemr brief. _ ; .... j As there is a traditional skeleton in every hong!, so is there usnaliy at least one; indifferent article to every magazine. TnAhis month’s Atlantic ty it is on inexplicable story, entitled “ Mr. Ar tell.” In Harper is “ Eandom'Reoolleetipns a Life ” by Mr. J. H. Siddons, tiie elooutionijt,' amusing, but sometimes impossible . We can pt some of them by dates; Mr. Siddons candidly that he is now 58'yoars old, i. e. bornin 180 - j says, of the great Mrs. Siddons, the actress,jtl she played “ three or four times after her fom retirement from the, stage, benefit of tier younger brother Charles exUt ; in 1816, at the reqneBt of the Prinoesa Char^to ; and' Prince Leopold”. ;,ShaaotuaUy did'play, tf£ formally quitting the stage, .once for the benoStjf • the Theatrical Fnndyßonce At the request of it£ Princess, twice for the benefit of, her brofcJ Choxles; and ten nights, at Edinburgh, in 1815,Rr ;• the benefit of her brother Henry’s family. Me Reminiscent says that fie.saw her play twicojjdce in Lady Macbeth and onoe in Qii conlC athfjr lie, . the first time being, in 1816,’ before the PriwL • Charlotte; At this lastdate she played Lfidyisic beth, and performed only once more—namelyfat Covent Garden on the 9th June, 1819, for Chales Kemble’s benefit—in Lady Randolph, however, md not in Queen Katharine,. in which, on hispfn showing, Mr: J . ii. Siddons could not have [son ’ her, though he says he did. Of her penalise ’ appearance Mr. Siddons says “ The Pnncefsltmr-' lotto aDd her consort expressed themsolve3 deliit ed , and ■ grateful when the perfbrinance was o%r, and as I was standing by when her Royal HighiW spoke her thanks, X received, for .my own looking on; a -graeious smile. People must Ive ' under a monarchy to appreciate the charm cf a princely courtesy;” All this must be sheer in vention, for Thomas Campbell, in his Life of Ms.: Siddons, (Harper’s edition, 1834, p. 2*18,) stys, “ Her Highness was unfortunately preventedlby illness, from■ enjoying .the gratificaiiotifhe • Had bespohen,” and the Georgian Era, voI.JV., p. 393, also says, “ Unfortunately, sudden, ilbess prevented the Princess from uiiinessing her per formance." The royal complitncat -to.Mrs'lSid. ’ dons and the gracious smile to the magazine- Triter are, therefore, mero inventions. Mr, S. speaks of having seen Edmund Kean,.in his. early perform ances, (1813-14,) and -this forward child,- not!only, “ could not like Kean personally,” but“ observed that Sheridan and Lord Byron petted the , of their property a good deal.” Let who wll be lieve that a lad, only nine years old, could thiis get vis-a-vis with Sheridan and Byron f B&l says that, in 1815, Sheridan took hum to Drury. Lane Theatre, and introduped bim to Lord Byron, who , said something to him—a boy of eleven—about the “ dim; religions light” of the. saloon. :Is. thfe pro bable 1 “Forty years later,’the adds, “ I paid a visit to Lady Lovelace, ‘ Ada, sole daughter of my house and heart;’ ” Forty years later than.J«J4-- fj’iltfy viiiUible? Bho died ill fOoSj threQ years [before , the recorded date of the visit. In ‘-AugnstrxszO; Mr. Siddons says- Ue wae-*lt,Goduoed ' to Sir 'Walter Scott, “at the Sessions House,!’. Edin •burgh, and describes the. court, in which,; judges, people, advooates, &0., having departed,’ “Scott eat alone, writing;’ ’ Unfortunately for this Re collection, the Court of Sessions is always closed from the 12th July to the 12oh November, and in Scott’s Diary for 1826, (Lockhart’s Lifo of Scott, Boston edition, vol viii*, pp. 107-116) it is chroni cled that Sir Walter'Scott never once set foot in Edinburgh in August of that year. Consequently, Mr. Siddons’ conversation with Scott could not have taken place, and we discredit, from thisfalse assertion, his boasted subsequent visit to Abbots ford. no says that Lord Macaulay in the Edin, - burgh Review, (July 1835.) published a criticism on the “Life of Sir James Mackintosh,” by his son. It happens that the subject of the criticism was not the Life, (then unpublished.) but Mackin tosh’s History of tbo Pi-evolution ia Eaglaad in 1688. He says that Macaulay, in India, “ deter mined to pass his time in drawing ,hi 3 salary* and writir g for the Edinburgh Review.” But he wrote only two articles while in India: one on Mackintosh’s History, in 1835, the other upon Ba con,*in 1837. It is not pleasant thus to point out the worse than blunders, for some of them must bo untrue, of any writer, but whoever, through a respectable-perir cdical of widest circulation, is so careless, and un reliable, as we have found; Mr. Siddons to be, meets only with his desert when he is exposed, Mr. Siddons was in the Indian army, and did edit a daily newspaper in Calcutta, as he represents hero, and had great opportunities of, observing men and things in various parts of the world; but his “ Recollections” are too random” to be relied on.—ln oonsequence of. the increased cpstof paper, Messrs, Peterson havo raised the price of Harper from 15 to 20 cents. There really is no roason, ex cept absurd competition among booksellers, why the full prioe should-not be charged always. A gOod magazine is very cheap at 25 cents a number. « Mistress and Maid,” by Miss Moloch, author of “John Halifax, Gentleman,” one of tho best modern novels, is now published as No. 224 of that unequalled collection, Harpers’ Library of Select Novels.” Let no one he deterred by the commonplace character of the early part of this Btory from going through'the whole. Midway it improves very much, and winds'up admirably. The sins and reformation of Ascott Leaf pieted with' great ability, and the sketch of Peter Asoott, to whom money was’every thing, , is in fine keeping throughout, concluding, unexpectedly, but naturally, with showing him to have a heart.,. The death of Selina is touchingly related, hut the only women in the -book worth oaring- for are Hilary Leaf and Elizabeth Hand, the servant—the latter, so unpromising at first, matures into a true heroine. Another novel, worthy of perusal, but of a wholly different class, is 11 The Old and New ; or, Taste versus Fashion,” by Mrs. J. Sadlier, (wife of the New York Catholio publisher,) and more likely to • be generally read than some of.’her former excel-, lent books, inasmuch as it is. less sectarian. It portrays, with spirit and fidelity, the quasi fashionable life of Irish people who have risen to opulence by industry and enterprise. Some of the scenes are humorous, and fMrs. Sadiier, in her ap preciation and delineation of Irish character,much reminds us Edgeworth. - In Theodore Winthropis new. work, “ The Canoe and the Saddle,” a neat volume published' by Ticknor A Fields, are related his Adventures North and .South :, among the Northwestern rivers and forests; and upon the Isthmus of Panama, Like all hie other publications, they are posthumous: His ’ sketches of personal adventure are so vivid and faithful that we are in doubt whether his fact is not as good as his fiction.

In it are collected numer ous lyrios, many of which have already been’ in print, which: the reader is te suppose were read, during three evenings, to the Poet’s wife, at Cedar Croft, their home, and to one other auditor. The framework in wbioh these occasional lyrics are satis; very slight, but the opening and the connecting nar rative are admirablor-remioding ns, not merely in rythm but also inmanner and sentiment, oLTenny son’s more familiar compositions. Following the Poet’s Journal we find half a volume of other poems, - original and translated ; the opening one, entitled “ Passing the Syrens,” with its snatohes of ifong intermingled with the blank verse, is Tennysonian ' all over.

ARMY OF THE POTOMAC; Affairs at Falmouth—How we shall Cross' the Rappahannock—Treatment of Pri soners—Rebels Concentrating, <fcc. [Special Correspondence ot Ihe Press.] Headquarters Army of-the-Potokac; November 23,1862. : • The morning breaks brightly- after a cold night, and finds the army: still encamped at Falmouth, on; the opposite side of the Rappahannock from Frede ricksburg. The-tromcndous rain of Thursday and Thursday night has spoiled the roads, and the pon toon train, with .many other • trains, has been de tained; A general depression 1 was felt under the ' lowering sky of yesterday, and a certainty was felt that-we could not leave here for a fortnight, even with pleasant weather, so serious was the damage to rpadS'thraugh the rain of the day before. We may now hope for the better, and Bupply wagons, still fast in the mnd, ban soon be expected. A de lay in the constant arrival of supplies is a very se rioua matter to an army. Men are placed on half rations, and horses, deprived of hay, ravenously nibble at posts, at the barks of trees, or any foul 1 and muddy leaves or grass they may find under their feet,; , The thought entertained on arriving here, that ■ the. obmmariding'general might ford a brigade over to take possession- of Fredericksburg, has passed away. Tho stop was not necessary. We shall wait' for bridges to be laid over the river, and when that may be accomplished the bulk of the army will pro bably remain on this side, until ready to move om Richmond. If that place is to be taken by a coup de main, the undertaking will bo a terrific diffi culty from tho north, side; If by a regular siege, we have no siege guns or other preparations for the purpose. Wo are, therefore, yet in the dark as to plans. We shall doubtless act in conjunction with the ninny on the Peninsula; and trust that; the War Department is: making due provision, for success. It is earnestly to be hoped that the hos pital arrangements will be complete for tho coming fight, and that ample covering will be afforded to wounded; men. The pain of cold should’not be -superadded to the many miseries of wounds. - OUR TREATMENII-'OF PRISONERS. General Patrick, provost marshal of the army, is to .all appearance a kind-hearted man. His faoe indicates this, and he lectured the Bth Regulars, the provost gUMd imder his command, severely of late, for an outrage committed by several of their number in stealing the apples of a poor negro. By 'the bye, what infamy could be lower than affect ing to .despise a humble and unoffending black, for his color, and then robbing him, as many rascals in this army do! Geheral Patrick, as I said, is apparently a man of -ing upon atrooity. By mismanagement in regard ! to ratiraerthoy are sometimes as long as two'flags withouta morsel -tv vu.il,- an\L~u** * jM.<rfo,--fagw compelled to sleep in the open airj without any co vering beyoqd what they may themselves have pro vided- . _ , . - ’ Delinquents from our army, and prisoners from the otter, have usually at least a blanket, but un fortunate citizens of this State, who have been ar rested on suspicion, have seldom even an overcoat. Danners innocently riding alongfhe road, perhaps on business connected with their farms, or perhaps searching horses stolon by our army, havo been' arrested for being without a pass, when they had not the slightest idea that such a thing was re-, quired, Others have been seized at their’homes on charges of being spies, or of having at a distant past period given some sort of information to the enemy, which consisted only in answering ques-, lions asked by rebel officers passing through. Again, others have been arrested simply on a charge of being Secessionists, with, an idea that they might be doing something inimical to the Union. I know in Maryland a young Virginian of Union principles, who had fled this State, to avoid impressment in the Confederate service. As our army, approached his homo he thought it safe to visit his parents, but was arrested while with them, on suspicion of being a rebel soldier; and no asser tions of himself or family could save him from being carried Off somewhere . into Couch’s army corps, and there kept for a fortnight, in a chilled and starved condition, until it suited the officer, under he fell, to give him a hearing. I mothimoh his return, sick, attenuated, and with no reason the Union that had thus re ward ed him for fidelity. Every now and then, at long intervals, Gen. katrick eoneludes to give a hearing to prisoners under his control.,: Some are sent to Washington, and many are-released without the slightest proof being brought agai nstthem, carrying ) "perhaps,in their systems newly acquired diseases that will hurry them into their graves. On the eternal, drenching night of Thursday, while the command ing officer curled himself under four blankets, in his well-wafnied'Sibley tent, the unfortunate pri soners, thoroughly goakod during the day, had still to bear,-chilled to thefmarrow, the torrents of' twelve long, dreary hours' of darkness, and, as the" dawn of tardy, day arrived, a cold wind froze, their misrry: tq-a depth; which a -life of sun light couldLnot fathom. A little forethought would have suggested an old' uutenanted house noar by as a protection, but no hoed was given them, and they were left to shiver round their camp fires without sympathy. We can imagine an unfortu nate Virginian under such circumstances, arrested for he knows not what. His home and wife, his little girls, his blazing, log fire cheerily illumi nating the room, and throwing a bright light over the oounterpane of a well rounded feather bed all gong—and when to be again seen ? ‘And in stead of-fhem—this! I should be tempted to well curse a-, country that treated me thus. These words *of mine will be idly road. I ask 1 that they may notbe." .I ask that at least one person in au thority should order, an alteration, in this treat ment. If we take prisoners, we are bound to pre serve them from disease and death, although we : may half starve them. We should give them shelter and cover -their nakedness. They are'en titled, at least, to. warmth. A. visit' yesterday ; morning to the unfortunate men here spoken of ■ made the heart bleed. Had it been permissible to speak to them, I should have heard tales of un imagined sufferings. .■ One old man, I was told, had been vomiting blood, and could not live much longer under the treatment; others laid, prostrate and shivering under, the insufficient covering of a blanket; kindlylent by soldiers ; all wore wain and haggard, with eyes that sadly told what the voice was forbidden to utter. All these are minor mise ries, it may be said. We are in a state of war, and men 'cannot have all as they would wish. What'are these to wounds and death! Much! They are slow, and diabolic 1 torture, and could be stopped at a word. ..There is no necessity for it whatever. In no case should prisoners suffer such negleot'/and certainly not when. charges are un proved against them. FALMOUTH. This village of Falmouth is a sorry little spot. There are a few imposing houses on surrounding hills, owned by persons who have made money hero: by store-keeping and buying produoe from neigh- ■ boring farmers ; but tho pretty view of the Rap-, pahannook is seen chiefly from dirty hovels of de parted negroes or degraded operatives of a; option' factory long sings closed. A dingy old brick man. sion,’ with broken windows, tumble-down fences,. and a filthy yard, occasionally varies the scene with 'a white house of cleaner pretensions; but every ■ thing.betokens decay, shifriessness, and—slavery. Great gulches, washed by rains. enerSaoh on hUly ‘ streets,' and reduce their proportions to break-' neok narrowness; immense stones lie in road ways,' to trip unwary horses or jolt carriages; sidewalks' . scale high banks, whose width might puzzle a' -chamois or a tight-rope dancer. The mud is now ankle deep. No pavements, no macadamized - roads. Confound the. South ! .The miserable ebun-- • try, 88 it stands, is not worth fightiDg far. New l institutions only, and newbiood, can make it fit for . civilized beings. This village would make a ••Northern tojra oouncil tear- thoir 1 hair. Few in-.' .habitants -i are 'S met: Many houses are deserted.. The women stay withindoors. Soldiers alonewalk; .the streets, interspersed, at Jong-disiant street corners, with - a lack-lustre, middle-aged citizen, With his hands in bis pockets; A cadaverous youth of nineteen, wi h a strong slave-State accent, is the only semblanoo of a young man I have yet teen. He is a clerk in the only flour mill of the place, and’ spits tobacco juice as if his wh-ole in ternal organization was composed of it—soul and all. Falmouth' and; Fredericksburg have both- lost trade by the construction of the GordonsviUe asd’ Alexandria Railroad. Much produce, formerly coming to them, now goes to the lat er place. THE EBBK6 ARMY CONCENTRATING*. As day advances we find that twenty ; thousand’ men i Bongstreet, have been coileotiDg on the' opposite shore sinoe our arrival, and their numbers' are increasing. .We hear, moreover; of their ap proaching our rear. Thiß mishap-hits been cimsei bythe non-arrival of bridge trains from’ Washing ton, whioH Burnside had a positive promise of re ceiving by the time he arrived'here,-four days ago; He could then immediately have Crossed. ’ A summons to "surrender Frederioksburg by Burnside this motning was answered bya polite re ply from the mayor that tho military authorities had taken power from his hands; As soon us the bridges arrive the army will erbss under cover of opens; and'thV shades of death are hovering' ovur- un»oy- eyo»-~-. Whether we shaU'fnrther wait tiR the railroad’be tween this point and A’oquia orook is' repaired is yet to be seen. The enemy either hope to baffle our advance opon Richmond a defeat, or delay us by a fight, which will necessitate reorganization 4 and recuptraticn. I hope postal communications in the rear will not be out off. Otrr headquarters post office is still continued under Mr. W; By Hazlitt, assisted by Mr. J, E. Cooley, both of Pittsburg, and works very smoothly. .'-N;-! GENERAL' SICJEI’S STAFF: In the- printed list of General Sigel’s staff' the name of Major George Eappner, chief of engineers, was omitted. The following orders have been published: ' HbADQOIKTEKS EtEVKNtu COBPS, AbmV OFTa*- PoiOMio, Gainesville, VAi Nov At. 1862.-.

' Assistant Adjutant General: THE FRUITS OF DELAT. To day completes a week that- wo havo boen op- ' posite Fredericksburg, without having had the means of passing the Rappahannock. Pontoon bridges that should have arrived last Monday eve ning, to facilitate immediate crossing, were delayed at Washington, and the enemy, from an insignifi- cant brigade, has swelled during our delay to the dimensions of a large army, under Lee and Long street. One pontoon bridge arrived last evening, for the use of infantry and cavalry. Ano'her, of : heavier construction, for artillery and baggage, is expected to-day, and, in case of its arrival, both will be thrown over to night. The cannon of the enemy will open to prevent the proceeding, and the thunders of artillery will echo to the young moon, and mock Its gentle smile by infernal hor- the MANNER IN which: a BATTLE MAT BE BROUGHT ON. A severe test is before us. Muoh depends upon the strength of our artillery to silence that of the enemy, and facilitate the. completion of the bridges, and if a passage be effeoted a hard fight will doubt less ensue. The enemy have not oongregated in forco 'td run away without a battle, An engage ment, either successful or otherwise, will delay our march, and winter will, in the meantime, fast grow upon usi creating nightly suffering to the men, who, in them Blight shelter-tents, with but a blanket and overcoat, are poorly provided against cold. Many men are still even : without these, and share the covering at night of hospitable comrades. Many, also, are yet without good; shoes. The Quarter master General’s department has evidently much to attend to, for much oonnebted with supplies is still neglected. OUR BATTERIES AM, INSPECTED! General Hnnt. chief of artillery, is occupied to inteliigent young aid, Captain Brownson, son of the well-known thinker, Orestes A. Brownson, who has -Bibo a son'iiTHi'e -K-oenlars as a lieutenant. Both of those gentlemen are o( m_ siderable powers of thought, cultivation, anef'en-- lightenment. Military men are rarely either literary or philosophic, and these young officers form an agreeable oasis in the desert of whisky and. common-plaoe composing an army. My re marks are not sweeping; I make exceptions, and bright ones—but such i 3 the rule. THE SUPFERIXO OF THE PEOPLE OF FREDERICKS BURG AND VICINITX. There is much suffering in Fredericksburg,-as ; also on this side of the river, at Falmouth. The richer families tied for Richmond on our approach, ■ but those of straitened means find difficulty in procuring food at the enormous rates current. Nearly all able-bodied inon havo been either en ticed or forced into the rebel army, and their wives have much trouble In supporting the”chil dren in their charge. At simple sewing they can earn but twenty- five cents a day, but a number employ themselves in hand-weaving at their homes, and earn rather more. Since non-intercourße with the loyal States, materials for clothing haifer irely been procurable from thence, and only at .very high' prices. ’ Ha'ncl-weaviDg has, therefore, again become profitable, and a feminine vocation of last century has returned. GEN. BURNSIDE’S HEADQUARTERS CHANGED. General Burnside changed his headquarters yes terday to a point three miles below Falmouth. The surrounding estates are very large, and de serted by their owners. Overseers remain in charge, and these are often impressed. by. the rebels. One I met with bad been wounded at Antietam and procured his discharge; another has hidden himself, caoh time the enemy has appeared here, and escaped. He is employed by a person named Ring, who has lost all his negroes exoept two by a fancy for freedom and wages on their part. r - A SLAVE-STATE CUSTOM AND ITS ATTENDANT barbarisms.' This overseer keeps six dogs, for work that two might perform. This is a frequent Slave-State cus tom, and is in keeping, with the general waste and shiftleesness. A- dog will eat as much as a pig;. The first is usually useless, and thelast profitable. I . find in the overseer’s house a dog to run after sheep, another to chase chickens outof the garden, another to growl at new-comers, two over fed little brutes, with starting eyes, that are utterly worthless, and a sixth to hunt rabbits, but useless for partridges.. Another virtue, .however,?he> {possesses, which the overseer expatiates on with commendation. He is a bloodhound, and is “ good en ketohin’ “I should think a negro oould easily, put a knife into a bloodhound; and settle him,” said I. “He wont let him git near enough,” was the answer. “He stands still and barks, till tho men come up, and then, if the negro wont give himself up, he’s shot in the legs, and lamed so as he can’t run.” ,‘And this, aocording to Virginia law ?” said-. I. “ Yes,” said ho!! A BATTLE HOBBIT EXPECTED. This will reach you, doubtless, after the telegraph will have announced the stirring.newa of a battle, and my words will read tamely,beside the momen tous details of victory or defeat. THE GUNBOATS: CANNOT REACH FREDERICKS . BURG. A ride to day to Belie Plain, a level region on Potomao oreek, reveals terrible roads, and the past delay of wagons is not surprising, either from there or Aoquia oreek, four miles to the north. At both of these points steamers: arrive from. Washington with Supplies,-and, in-ease of the very distant pos-' sibility of a. retreat, both would secure safety to' the army by meana.of gunboats how.in their, neighi-, borhoed. Ten of these able coadjutors are said to. have arrived in the Rappahannock to-day, but cannot reach Erederioksburg.' They will pay, their, respects to the rebels at'a locality, somewhere be low, in case they should present themselves. N.

Cairo, Nov. 21.—1 n the vicinity of Holly Springs im portaut movements are in piogress, although 'superficial observers report quietness and prospects of eoutinanl In action. They explain the non- possession of Hotly Spring* by onr forces by saying it would be impolitic for General Giant to push his advance so far in front of. the-army. So far the reason is good, bat there is a deeper meaning in the belt at Legrange.- Gen. Bragg, wirti fifteen thdn send men. joined Gen. Pemberton last Saturday noan. and immediately took possession of the Springs It waa the intelligence of theapproaeb of this reinforcement-an doubt, that caused the Union General to beware of ■ liesty following np of the rebelretreat .' i ’ A few companies only were in the city when Brags arrived, and (hey immediately removed to EndeonviLe, about sesyen'miles west. The rebels soon began to pre pare for defence, and the latest account is, the -pickets at the opposing armies are but a few miles apart The puns of the opposing army is said to be this i Bragg is to en tice Grant into an engagement ; then Pemberton and Price are to perform fleck movements, when Gun Grant, not being able to withstand it, is to be ceptured—“horse, foot, and dragoons.”' This is, a part of the grand scheme, referred to some time sgo, of capturing Memphis, occu pying Tennessee, and driving ns out ot the dontaweat.

HINDMAN- GOING INTO "WINTER QUARTERS. St. Louts, Mo., November £3. The latest news from the Southwest represents the rebels quiet In that quarter. Gen Hindmau had retired to Fort Smith, and was preparing to go into winter quarters at that point. It is not thought that toe will at tempt to come northward again for the present. Tho Federal army of the frontier has retired to SprlogieW, Missouri, thnß placing nearly two hundred milee between the two hostile forces. The whole of Northwestern Arkansas 1 and Southwestern -Missouri has been com pletely eaten otU, eotbatnelther army can occupy it.' It will be next to impossible for another campaign to bo conducted there until another year shall bring a supply of forage for draught animals. WHAT THE MILITIA GAN B®. . It is under contemplation “ in high official circles ”, to ’ order out the militia of Missouri to held the various post* along the Arkansas border. This'will release fifteen or twenty thousand volunteers from garrison duty, and ren der them available for the field; Tho plan of leaving this work to be done by. the State militia was advised in your columns some weeks since, and found a warm approval ft omall tbe officers and soldiers who would thus hava opportunity of getting outside the; State. - Springfield, Houeton, Kolia, Pilot Knob, and several interior towns are held by volunteers from the various Western and Northwestern Slates, who are anxious to be brought to the front wherever the enemy can be found. It ia proba ble that-the above- mentioned plan will be carrie'd into effect during the present week. ■ GEN. CURTIS* ARMY. At General Onrtis’ headquarters yesterday, nows win reteived direct from Little Bock. The rebels hare a force ot about six thousand at that point, with thru* thousand at Cotton Plant, east of White river. At Ar kansas Post, sixty miles above the mouth of the Arkansas river, and on the last bluff on that stream before the Mis sissippi river is reached, is a force variously estimated from six to nine thousand strong. The rebels have de termined to make a stand there, to prevent the naviga tion of the Arkansas river. In a few weeks the Arkan sas will be high enough to navigate with tight-draught boats, as far up aB Little Bock. This contingency the rebels are now preparing against. THE .ARKANSAS RIVER. The lower part of the Arkansas is exceedingly tortu ; ens, and at the point where the rebels are now stationing themselves the stream "makes a wide sweep around the hue of a bold bluff. The rebels hava taken tho gun* from; the wreck .of the gunboat Poncbartraln, and are mounting them so as to command tho river. They have flitcen hundred negroes at work throwing'up fortifica tions, and they are cutting a road through the timber south of the Arkansas river, in the direction of the Washita. The troopß at Arkansas Post are .pretty well aimed, and have a goodly supply of ammunition, but they are suffering for clothing and commissary stores. - =J- • THE. OLDEST SETTLEMENT. : Arkansas Post is the eldeet settlement In the State, and was for a long time the frontier tracing establishment north of Mew Orleans and.west of the Mississippi. It was too far south to receive any: trade of importance from the trappeis and hunters of tbe tar West, and was speedily outstripped by the more enterprising and better located merchants of St. Louis and the Missouri river. Before civilization bad extended to. Little Bock, the Post of Art anss 1 was a location of considerable Importance. 'With the settlement of the conntiy to the nest, It di minished in interest and value, and of late yearg little has been beard of it , ' ANvUNEOHNDEB EEPOKT. There is no foundation for the story telegraphed from Cairo that Holmes is crossing his forces from Arkansas to the east hank of the Mississippi to reinforce Gen. Pemberton. It is the decision ot the Confederate leaders in Arkansas that their State must be made to stand be tween Texas and tbe Federal forces. They have decided for the present to act on - the defensive, and oppese any movement into northeastern Tex»B or Northern Loui siana. By obstructing’ the Arkansas’river they could prevent our making use of its navigable waters to reach Little Bock or (any other’point where we could operate against their more ; southern neighbors. They have . gathered'nearly all the supplies to be.found in the coun try between White river and ; Little Bock, and have costumed all on the lines of travel. If our army should attempt's march into the, interior of Ar kansas it would be much hindered for want of food for its boraee end mules. .■> . ‘ REBELS. USING THE MISSISSIPPI. . , It is represented that the rebels are now running boats from Port Hudson, Louisiana, to Lake Providence, • few miles below Napoleon, Arkansas, a distance of,nearly four hundred miles. With, the exception of the capture of the Fairplay; they, have been undisturbed in the navi gahen of this portion of the Mississippi. The boats are bringing arms and other munitions ef war from Vicks burg tb Lake Providence, for the use of the rebels in Ar kansas. Onr gunboats ought not to be lying idle at Cairo and HelebarwMle they have such excellent opportunities of capturing more prizes. ' ' • GEH. BQtEOB&NS’ GAIIIIAHTBY.—W- D.
