From the Southwest

Tupelo, Oct. 8.
--(Special to Advertiser and Register.)--All the sick and wounded are being sent over the Mississippi Central Railroad. It will be some days before lists can be obtained.

Fears are entertained that the enemy may make a demonstration on the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, but it is doubtful.

The Memphis Bulletin, of the 7th, says Rosecrans telegraphs the loss on the Federal side as being severe, particularly in officers, but no comparison with that of the enemy.

The guerrillas captured a freight train near Bethel Station loaded with commissary stores.

Parties from Memphis say there are only 1,500 troops remaining there, the balance having gone to Jackson, Tenn.
