nce to me, the forts below New Orleans had been taken by the Louisiana troops. These events were known to readers of newspapers in Arkansas, but the only newspaper taken at the Auburn store was a Pine Bluff weekly, which, as I seldom saw it, I never imagined would contain any news of personal interest to me. It was not until March that I began dimly to comprehend that something was transpiring which would involve every individual. Dr. Goree, our neighbour planter, happened to meet Mr. W. H. Crawford, an ex-Representative of Georgia, at our store, and began discussing politics. Their determine accents and resolute gestures roused my curiosity, and I heard them say that the States of Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana others, had already formed a separate government, and one called Jeff Davis had been proclaimed President of a new government; and they wondered why Arkansas was slow to join the Confederates, etc., etc. This was news to me and when they unfolded their respective newspapers

p, and before it became engaged the veteran leader was mortally wounded. The command then devolved on General Williams, who left his division in the care of General Crawford, and the latter seized a piece of woods near by. Hooker had lost heavily; Doubleday's guns had silenced a Confederate battery; Ricketts was struggling againsumbers on his front; and the National line began to waver, when Hooker, in the van, was wounded and taken from the field. Sumner sent Sedgwick to the support of Crawford, and Gordon and Richardson and French bore down upon the Confederates more to the left. The Nationals now held position at the Dunker Church, and seemed aboutn, fell back to their original position. Sedgwick, twice wounded, was carried from the field, and the command of his division devolved on Gen. O. O. Howard. Generals Crawford and Dana were also wounded. Franklin was sent over to assist the hard-pressed Nationals. Forming on Howard's left, he sent Slocum with his division towards

he engagement at Fourche, the brave Maj. Samuel Corley, commanding Dobbin's regiment, was killed while fighting in gallant style. To that command it was an irreparable loss, and in his death the country was deprived of the services of one of its bravest and most devoted officers. To an unflinching courage was added a sincere piety, and in him was furnished as noble a specimen of the Christian soldier as any our cause can boast. In the same regiment, Lieut. W. H. Bowers was killed, Capt. W. H. Crawford and Lieut. David Morgan wounded. On the morning of September 6th, a lamentable tragedy occurred in the vicinity of the cavalry camp. Evading arrest, which had been attempted, the general then commanding the cavalry and his next in command met in personal encounter, by appointment, attended by friends, and the senior in rank fell at the first fire. Both were officers of experience, bred to arms, of handsome presence and distinguished address, and chivalrous lovers of their native

citizens of North Carolina who are at home will vote on the 4th of August. At General Hospital No. 24 the vote stood: for Vance,112 for Holden,6 in the Rowan (N. C.) Artillery, Lieut. W. W.

House of Commons--David Cobb, 21; John Dancey, 20; L. B. Farmer, 2. The whole vote of the North Carolinians in the hospitals of Richmond was furnished us by a courteous friend last night, and from it we learn that Gov. Vance received 867 votes and Holden 25. By reference to the telegraphic column it will be seen that Holden's vote in the vicinity of Petersburg is quite as discouraging to the "p
