From the Army Of the Frontier.

Brig. Gen. Blunt has sent q de-
spatch to Mai. Gen. Curtis stating
that the rebels fled from Fort Smith,
Ark, leaving 600 Of their sick and
wounded to take care of themselves,
and burning two of their steamboats,.
Gen. Blunt was in possession of Van
Buren, where he had burned four
steamers and large amount of stores
belonging to the rebels. As much Of
the sugar and other supplies was saw.
ed as Gen. Blunt had transportation
for. The entire telegraphic correspond
ence of Gen. HiDdman was taken. 1t
contains much valuable information,
and will be forwarded to the war De-
partment. The destitution of the
rebel army is most pitiable. Four
thousand of Hindman's army are
without shoes. The loss to the citi-
zens by the recent raid amounts to
over 100000. The rebels are dis
persing in every direction. It is re-
ported that the rebels have met with a
heavy loss at Arkadelphia, 55 miles
southwest of Little Rock.
While our forces have been opera
ting in Arkansas the hungry rebels
planned raid upon Springfield, No.,
for the purpose of Selling our stores
at that place. Our forces there con.
sisted of the Sd and 4th Michigan
cavalry, numbering together about
$50 efficient men. the 18th Iowa, 600
strong, and 1000 sick and GONZALES.
cent soldiers, about 600 of whom will
be able to assist in the defence.
The rebels were reported to be 5000
strong, under Generals Burbridge aud
Marmaduke, and had six pieces of ar
tillery. They opened upon the town
without giving notice to remove the
women and children.
II the rebels have the artillery re-
ported, fears are felt for the safety Of
the place, as there is million dollars
worth Of stores there. The ordnance
and ammunition is stored at Fort Ly-
on, into which the garrison can finally
retreat and defy any rebel assault, in
the opinion Of military officers famil-
TAR with the locality.
Gen. Brown, who is in command at
Springfield, telegraphed to Gen. Curtis
at St. Louis, that he had loopholed
the houses and was making vigor-
Gus resistance. He said:
Il am holding all the strong posi-
tions, and the enemy must fight as l
want him to. They are fighting for
bread"
DR.. Melcher, post surgeon ct Spring
field, sends the following, dated Janu-
airy 9th
Gen. Brown is badly wounded.
The enemy is in large force. They
took one Of our guns. but were repui-
sed at dark. Militia reinforcements
are coming in. Rebel prisoners say
Marmaduke is in command. We shalt
be reinforced Tonight"
