The capture of Arkansas Post.
Arkansas Post, which is reported in the Northern papers to have been captured by the Federal fleet and land forces, is on White river, about 100 miles from its mouth.
It is a square fort, with bastions, mounting four 52 pounders, smooth bore, and one 100 pound Parrott gun. It is not likely that the force of Confederates there approximated even 5,000 men, the lowest figure at which the Federal reports place the number of captured men — The fleet under Porter, which made the attack, was backed by a land force, under McClernand, which seems to have gotten in rear of the fort, as the Federals report that their loss--two hundred--was chiefly caused by the shell from their own gunboats.
The Post was attacked on the evening of the 10th and surrendered on the 11th.
The report says that the Confederates were out off from retreat on both sides of the river.

Progress of crime in Lynchburg.
The thieving and garroting in Lynchburg has become so open and flagrant that the citizens have determined to take the law into their own hands.
Some watches, stolen from Mr. James Weight, were found Sunday night in a place known as the "Washington Restaurant," by Marylanders, two of whom, Brown and Pearce, were arrested — On Monday afternoon a large crowd of the citizens assembled for the purpose of taking Brown out of prison and hanging him. After much persuasion the people relinquished their purpose, and determined to hold a public meeting to devise measures for the suppression of the garroting and other robberies which of late have become so frequent there.
