Enforced by about $50 men from Ceutralla,

RoLLA, Mo-, Aug. 8.-Mr. Burden, stage
proprietor, from Springfield, Monday noon,
furnishes the following items:
Gen. Lyon with his forces had fallen back
on Springfield, having reached there Mon
day evening, and was preparing for Wig
orous defense.
The rebels were advancing by four differ
eHt roads, and their advance was ascertain
ed to be from ten to fifteen miles distant.
Gen. Lyon had called in $500 Home
Guards from the country around SPRING
field
1t was expected that the enemy would
make an immediate attack. from the fact
that their eommisseriat was in miserable
condition, they being Obliged to depend on.
forced contributions for temporary supplies.
1t was generally remarked in Springfield
that Gen. Lyons was perfectly confident of
success, in case of an attack. He bad no
entertainments, but would depend upon his
spiennid artillery il the open field.
Fifty wagons, loaded with provision, had
reached him.
