shown on yesterday a private letter from an
intelligent army officer, giving us an idea
of the situatiou, which shows that we are
not so well prepared as we should be- He

themselves Immediately. The heavy guns, toe.
require an additional force, and officers are now
in the city authorized to give as much as one
hundred dollars bounty for them, so soon as they
are sworn into service. Has the time come, We
ask, when men shall be called for in vain, to de-
fend their liberties and their property The fate
of Memphis and the Mississippi valley depends
on our power to hold our position absye If
the fearful tale Of disaster is ever told It must
not be said that it was for want of men. Let
patriots rush forth, therefore, and fill up the va

TIKI C0vFRDERATE PRISONERS
TAKEN Al DONELsON.

Oa Yesterday we received the following note,
making a query Of much interest TO the friends
Of the captured prisoners at Fort Donelson:
HERNANDO, Miss, March 3, 1862
EDITORS APPEAL: As is well-knowu to the
public, hundreds of citizens Of North Missis-
sippi. taken at Fort Dones0n, are now confined
In the euemy's prisons at Alton, Springfield, Chi
csgo and Indianapolis. 1t is the wish Of the
friends and relatives of many of these men, TO
send them as soon as possible, money, clothing
letters, etc, and if you know Of mesns by which
il can be done, you viii perform an act Of hu-
manity by giving II the widest publicity Just
now. and If no such channel now exists, so
soon as it shall be opened le5 US know it through
your columns. ii. II. CHALMERS.
The only manner ia. which this enterprise can
be accomplished we think. is through the in
strumeutslity of our military authorities. If
Mr. CHALMERS viii correspond with General
JOHNSTON or General PILLOW, at Huntsville,
Alabama, we feel safe IN the assertion that they
win make some arrangement by which all nee
essary articles, money, etc, can be conveyed to
the prisoners under a dag Of truce, by way Of
Nashville aud Louisville. So soon as that az
rBngemeut is perfected, we win publish it to the
country with pleasure.
