range of my artillery. On reaching the open field on their right, just alluded to, I discovered the entire division of Gen. Frost advanced to the edge of the timber, and about two hundred yards distant. They opened on us a fierce fire from Enfield r line of battle could not have numbered over twelve hundred, and with this force we engaged, as we afterward learned, General Frost's whole division, two Arkansas regiments, etc., and with the aid of the batteries above named, his final reenforcementy-five thousand strong, under the command of Hindman, a Major-General in their service — with Marmaduke, Parsons, Roane, Frost, Shoup, Fagan, and others as brigadiers — were preparing to march upon him from a point midway between Van Buren and Cane of great resources. Not all of his half a dozen or more brigadiers united — though Marmaduke and Roane, and Parsons and Frost are of the number (and were here in the battle)--could have gotten together, and kept together, an army of men such as he<
ordered into position to the rear, which terminated its part in the engagement. The following is a list of casualties: Co. A, First Lieut. C. C. Hart, Commanding. Killed--First Lieut. C. C. Hart; privates Albert McFarland and John M. Waggoner. Wounded--Sergeants Jas. J. Mattocks, severely; Sheldon Crooks, slightly; Corporal Philip A. Bowers, privates Julius A. Cutler, C. A. Bennett, Hiram C. Kesser, Geo. A. Clark, Edward Pfouts, (wounded and missing,) C. K. Smith, all severely; Albert Frost, Milo Ritchie, Wm. Shirey, Adolphus Flint, Asbury Hewitt, all slightly. Missing--Privates John Little and Addison Lincoln. Total killed, three; wounded, fourteen; missing, three. Number engaged, commanding officers, two; enlisted men, forty-five. Co. B, Lieut. E. A. Ford, Commanding. Killed--Private Wm. Burke. Wounded--First Lieut. E. A. Ford, severely; privates J. Burke, J. B. Johnson, G. B. Patterson, all severely; Sergeant C. F. Judd, Corporal H. Belden, both slightly; pr
ight must have been complete entirely. From citizens of Van Buren I learned the following market prices of articles, to wit: For one barrel of common whisky, eight hundred dollars, or a good house and lot; one pound of coffee, two dollars; one sack of salt, two hundred dollars; one pair of coarse boots, forty dollars; if a little larger than common size, sixty dollars. Coffee, salt and tea commanded the highest prices, and would even dig up gold instead of confederate currency. Wheat or rye, instead of Rio coffee, and spice-wood tea, are principally used. The ladies now hunt up their oldest dresses, and make them do even for Sunday attire. Butternut colors are the prevailing colors in Dixie. Yours, H. J. St. P. S.--In my last report, I forgot to add Henry W. Williams, to the St. Louis rebels in Hindman's army. He is Quartermaster in Frost's division, and as Mother Famer says, looks careworn and old. Louis Kretschmar, son of Clerk Kretschmar, is also in the same army.
