Sharpsburg, December 13, 1861.
On the morning of the 11th instant heavy cannonading was heard in the vicinity of Dam No. 4, and about one o'clock P. M. a messenger arrived in haste for reinforcements, stating that the enemy had attacked the pickets and were endeavoring to demolish the Dam, by cannonading.
When the enemy were first seen they appeared to be out on a scouting expedition, and Major Hubler immediately sent twenty-five men to a lock about one mile above the Dam, and so soon as the enemy arrived at that point they commenced firing on our pickets.
They returned the fire, instantly killing four and wounding ten, three mortally.
The enemy then fell back to a house about one mile from the river, when the men remaining at the Dam commenced firing on the house, killing three and wounding several.
At this time the enemy retreated back to the woods, and after waiting some time, Capt. Williams, of Com

227. proclamation of Gov. Jackson. December 13, 1861.
Officers and Soldiers of the Missouri State Guard, and Fellow-Citizens:
In the month of June last, after having exhausted every honorable means of averting the calamities of civil war, I called upon the State for fifty thousand volunteers, to drive the ruthless bands of hired invaders from our soil.

Who is Opothleyoholo?--Some curiosity having been manifested as to the identity of this notorious Indian chief, The Fort Smith News, of the thirteenth December, 1861, answers the question as follows:
Opothleyoholo, who is now giving so much trouble, is an old man about eighty years of age, and is a leader among what is now termed the Upper Creeks.
His first appearance in a public capacity was about 1824 or 1825, soon after the murder, by the Creeks, of Gen. McIntosh, who was killed for making a treaty with the United States Opothleyoholo's name made its appearance about that time as the leader of the party opposed to the treaty.
He is an eloquent speaker, and wields a mighty influence over the Upper Creeks by his tongue.
The McIntosh party compose the Lower Creeks, and there exists still, between the two parties, the remains of the old national feud, and this may be the cause of the present attitude of Opothleyoholo and his followers.
Indians never forget injuries, and
