Thompson’s address to bis arm at Jack- sonport was in the following words : j’tUoic-viti:en , <, who hum limn mi/ I vllownol- diera—It id proper that we should oinhraoo this opportunity to haro one moro family talk before wc uro scattered to our several homos, most pro bably not to moot nguiu on earth, and most cer tainly not to meet ns wo have heretofore met: and possibly you may not bo allowed to moot in such numbers as would make you dangorou.-; thoreforo, I havo called you together that I may advise you as to your status and proper courso to pursue for tho future. It is usoloss uow to criminuto or re criminate, but tho fact is evident that as an inde pendent ratioo, wo aro budly whipped, und the fault and blumo rests upon oursolvcs, for had wo boon more ohediont and industrious wo would have smeecdod. You have now assembled to be paroled, in con formity with my agreement and order, and 1 hope you aro ootoplying with tho spirit of my order, and aro acting in good f • ith; tor unless you arc doiog so, tho object wo aro so desirous to attain will ho mis*ed, and instead of pcaco aud quiet wo will still havo petty feuds, murders, hou-o burnings, aud troubles that will bo worse than open war. Lei each mail determine when lie leaves this place, that he will go to Ins home, there lo remain and work night and day to repair the duniagu that hus been done by the war, and never go oil his farm except to go to null; and. if there uro private quarrels between himseif and the neigh bors, he hud better pack up and hunt another neighborhood; a»d if not williug to submit to the laws of the United States, he hud better leave the country. You must reincrabre now that you have no rights,aml can only claim such us may be given to you hy tho conquerors, and the loss you say about politics, until you have become naturalized, the better for you. The Yankees have won the negro, und we must let them dispose of him us they pleuse. When your opinion or udvico is asked you can quietly give it, mil do not volunteer either. We have fought 4 long and bloody years tor our rights aud have lost, und now we Caiiuot get by simply talking what we have failed to win with our urms, and the mutter was talked over forty years belorethe lighting begun. All who cannot or will not he submissive should leave the United Suites as soon as pos sible, and I presume that many young men will go. I am sure there will be no hindrance, for the Government should he glad to get rid of all who are not disposed to he peaceable. To the Missourians who are present 1 would speak plainly, and advise them not to think of returning to .Missouri unless they have a clean record. There are many who have been fair, honest and chivalrous soldiers, who can have no charges against them, except the one of be ing true to the South ; there are many others who have forgotten the laws of God, the laws of man and the laws of war, and they, of course, cannot expect to live in Missouri in peace. Then there arc others who, though tlity have been honest soldiers, had determined in their hearts to have private revenge at the end of the war, had wc succeeded, and some who Imvo said that the Uniou men must leave if they won. Each of you know to which of these classes you belong, and you must “do as you would he done hy," and act accordingly. I’orri'st’ii Version «(' (lie Furl Pillow JIassacre. A coricspondent ol 7he „Y.m Orlums Trn, /'•■i/o describes a ievent interview with the Rebel Gen. Forrest, at Meridian, Miss.

The writer asked, after some preliminary questions: "Now that you have time, General, do you think you will put upon paper the truo account ot the Fort Pillow allair "Well," said lie, “the Yankees ought to know; they sent down their best men to investigate the affair." ‘‘But are we to believe their report, Goneral V" “Yes, if we are to believe unythiug a nigger says.
