From Missouri and Kentucky. Concentration of the Confederate troops — St. Louis threatened — Fremont in danger — the Federals fortifying Elizabethtown, &c. Memphis, Oct. 4. --Col. Harden is at Columbus with his command. Gen. Jeff. Thompson's force is now at New Madrid, bound to St. Louis, for the purpose of joining Gen. Fierce and General McCulloch. Gen Clarke is moving hence in the same direction, with 20 cannon. Gen.Fremont's safety is endangered, and 8,000 of his troops have moved Paducah-ward from Columbus. The Kentuckians are redeeming Kentucky and predict that the Southern winter quarters will be at St. Louis, Louisville, Washington and Baltimore. Nashville, Oct. 4.--A gentleman who arrived this evening, from Eastern Kentucky, says the Federals, 4,000 strong, advanced from Camp Dick Robinson to Big hill, 60 miles nearer the Tennessee line, with the view of fortifying themselves so as to prevent Zollicoffer's march into Kentucky.

Both in the West and North a resort to drafting men from the militia has been proposed, and should the war be long protracted, will probably be adopted. The experience of the war of 1812 showed that men paid as substitutes for dr to be unusually large for the season, and a demand for breadstuffs in France may arise, in consequence of the partial failure of the harvest there. Tobacco is to bear good prices the coming year. The tobacco growers of Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri, and some other non-seceded States, may find a good market for their staple. War expenditures. "Ion" again writes: The war expenditures are now stated, upon Government authority, to be eight and a half millions a week. The naval p
