HEAD QUARTERS, PocAHoNTAs ARK,
 At Night, Nov. ,, 1861.

am just in receipt of reliable information that the enemy, in very large force, have come below their stronghold at Ironton, and are marching ra- pidly in this direction. The last report from my scouts, received this evening, is that seven thou sand (7000) of the enemy were within oo miles of Donphan, Chat is, s miles north of this place,) this morning. My force here, as you well know, is very small-altogether inadequate to resist snc cessfuly this overwhelming force ot the enemy, unless am speedily reinforced by every available citizen soldier within reach. l need, at once, all the help, in men and guns, can get.
 By virtue, therefore, of my authority as com mandng officer of the Upper District oi Arkansas, 1 call upon every officer of Militia and Volunteers, to assemble the forces of their respective com mands, without moments delay, arm them IS well as they can, and march them immediately to this place. for instant and active service.
 And not only call upon them thus, by virtue of my military authority. but l appeal to them as fellow citizens as well as fellow soldiers, by every consideration of manlness and patriotism, to rally to defend the soil of our State against the inva- sion of ruthless foe, and our homes and families from overwhelming ruin.
 The few of us that are here, will die alone, Tn holding the position to which we have been assign ed But if not reinforced and supported as l have required, we cannot hold it successfully and not on

position of military autocracy, in which the liberties of white men would be annihilated with out the slightest increase of the liberties of the blacks.
 The North may be assured of one thing, which is, that if the war lasts much longer and the South continue to win all the battles, the kingdoms and states of Europe-and Great Britain among the number-will be compelled to recognize the Southern Confederacy as dc facto Government. In our day, Governments cannot listen to debates upon the jure when the de tacto is before them, for if they did, they would be involved in a succession of wars.- The King of Italy is recognized by Eng land and France because his Kingdom is fact; and the .Southern Contederation dids fair to Dc acknoicleged on Me same principle.

Federal Tyranny at Paducah.

Paducah, Kentucky, is one of the strongest southern cities south of Mason and Dixon's line, but her unfortunate position, so close to the abolition rendezvous at Cairo and the tardy movements of those from whom her true men had right to expect support, has resulted in the occupation of the place by the federalists in force and consequently the citizens have been outraged an extent hitherto unparalleled in the history of civalized warfare. Driven from their homes-their property seized and destroyed, and every indignity offered that federal malignity can devise, the citizens of that portion of Kentucky should not only be protected, but prompt meas ures taken to drive out the vandals who are IT. oting upon the spells they have taken.
 Numbers of the citizens have left forthe South but none are permitted to pass the federal lines without taking the following oath:
 do swear that l will support and defend the constitution and government of the United States against all enemies, whether domestic or foreign, and that 1 will bear true faith, allegiance and loyalty to the same, any ordinance, resolution or law of any State notwithstanding and further, that 1 do this with full determination, pledge and purpose, without any mental reser vation or evasion whatsoever.
 At the bottom of the above oath is written, "Pickets will pass"
 The federal commander has issued the follow ing proclamation:
 HEADQUARTERS U. s. FORCES. ]
 PADUCAH, KY., Oct. 10, 1861. To All Whom it May Concern, Greeting:
 Since the undersigned assumed command of the troops at this place, his purpose has beento pursue such course as to show the inhabitants of this region that 1t was not the intention of the government to interfere with their comfort and well-being in any respect, not excepting those who are well known to sympathise with the people of the States in rebellion. The person and property of every one have been protected, and quiet and good order preserved. If any discomfort or annoyance has occurred, it has been incidental to Q state of war and from mili- tarY necessity.
 The undersigned hoped that such course would open the eyes of the population to the talsehoods industriously circulated by the leads CTS and politicians of the South, respecting the intentions Of the government in sending troops here. Perhaps 1t may have done some good, but the course taken by some of the inhabitants of this city, and by many in the neighborhood, satis- fes him that the conciliatory policy ceases to be virtue.
 He will accordingly take such measures as the circumstances call for and justify. What those may be, time will develop As one meas ure, he has forbidden the out posts to pass out any person without written permission from the headquarters, which will only be given to persons ofapproved loyalty to the government of the United States. Nor will goods in stores ot any description be permitted to pass out without the same pernition. C. F. SMITH. Brio ~(Ien GOmnandno

McCulloch's head quarters on Monday, 28th ult., send you all the information in regard to their movement that could obtain in the short time 1 remained in that section. On the 25th ult., Gen. McCulloch sent I50 men from Col. Greer's (Texas regiment) in the direction of Springfield, Missouri in search offede ral troops. On Monday night, 29th, about 10 o'clock, a courier from this scouting party came into Gen. McCulloch's camp for a surgeon to attend two men of the scouting party, who had been wounded under the following circumstances: The party had camped near Springfield and those two men went to house occupied by Confederate States man, and learned while there that there were about 400 federal troops in Springhed-while at this house they were informed on, when the tede- ras sent fifteen to surround the house and take the two men prisoners As soon as they discover ed they were betrayed and the house surrounded- one man sprung out of the window, when an officer said you are my prisoner The Texan drew his bowie knife and cut him down, then shot two or three of the federals and was himself shot in the hand, the ball lodging in the arm. The other Texan ln jumping from the window caught his spur in the window curtain and hung from the window until a
 
 to the ground and shot in the leg, he sprung to his feet and shot two three more of the federas, when the rest run off, and the Texans made their way back to the scouting party.
 On Monday morning Gen. McCulloch sent Col. Churchill's regiment forward on the Springfield road as far as Keetsville, Mo-, where they camped on Monday night.
 As to Gen. Prices army, learned there was about 20 000 men, well armed, but much in need ot clothing, blankets, shoes, etc. l was informed by an intelligent officer of Gen. Prices army, at Fay etteyile that l50 of Prce's army, out as a scout ing party, had fight with 600 federal troops, east of Springfield, and killed 40' and took over 100 prisoners and took them to Gen. Prices army The same officer informed me that there was a ouorum in the Missouri legislature on Sunday, the 27th ut. 1 have since learned that the ordinance of secession was passed on the next day.
 I met many families on the road getting out ot Missouri-there was some sickness among them Many old people, women and children, without any preparation for journey, had hurried off from their homes in fear of their lives from the attacks of the iayhawkers. The Missourians greatly exas- nerateda and declare they will drive the last union man from the State. The health of the troops hadimproved-l could not hear of any sickness in the camp.
 Yours truly, GILBERT KNAPP.
