ks, worth three dollars apiece, and got the people to loan their wagons to haul them to our army. At McMinville he also secured a quantity of saltpetre and sixty boxes of clothing. The services of such men are valuable, and deserve to be recorded. Beauregard's call for bills. The New Orleans True Delta publishes the following letter from Gen. Beauregard to the pastor of St. Patrick's Church, in that city: Jackson, Tenn., March 20, 1862. Dear Father: --Your favor of March 14th has just been received. The call which I made on the planters of the Mississippi Valley, to contribute the bells from their plantations to be cast into cannon, is being so promptly met that I am in hopes of being spared the necessity of depriving our churches of any of their sacred appendages. Our wives and children have been accustomed to the call, and would miss the tones of "the church-going bell." But if there is no alternative we must make the sacrifice; and should I need it

In the meantime, it is to be hoped that the new gunboats from your city will be of some service, and that finally, Beauregard and Bragg having routed Buell, Johnston may be enabled-to regain Nashville, and Forts Henry and Donelson, and Polk Columbus and Hickman. This done, the enemy's gunboats will have to cease theiession of this latter point and the two roads in his demonstrations on Memphis, he is now cutting a military road from the Tennessee, at Yellow creek, to Corinth. Buell's Nashville column has already pushed its advance as far as Columbia, Tenn., and will no doubt march so Yellow creek to support the Tennessee column, if necessary,tant, by a branch road, from the Charleston road. There is a splendid bridge over the Tennessee to Florence, which could be destroyed in case an effort was made. Buell's column of 60,000, or a portion of it, might also advance to Florence from Columbia, which is 68 miles; the distance from Tuscumbia to Nashville, via Columbia, by

capture and a Release. The Tallahassee Floridian, of the 22d ult., says: Col. D. P. Holland, who was some time since taken prisoner with eight men, by one of the Yankee blockading vessels of Fernandina, arrived in Tallahassee on Tuesday last, and left on Friday morning. It seems that after he had been decoyed on the enemy's vessel by their raising a French flag of distress, he was treated kindly by the commander, though his men were put in irons for a time. On the arrival of Commodore Dupont, Col. Holland, with his men, were sent on board his vessel, where they were well treated. Col. Holland was conducted into the Commodore's state room, who received him with courtesy, and after spreading a snack with wine and cigars, he told Col. Holland that he regretted his -able detention; that he did not wish to have any question about flags, and that he would send him ashore on a boat, which was done. It may be well to remark that the Yankee vessels did not pull down the French fl

must not omit mentioning an incident of some interest in connection with the bombardment of the Island. It so happened that the enemy, getting their boats in position early in the morning, detected a small white flag which was used as a — at Rucker's battery, and was, it might have been supposed, (so small was it,) discernible only to ourselves. Immediately they dispatched a little tug, like wise with a white flag, to our battery, on the supposition, the officer stated, that we wished to ce boats from Columbus. The enemy must have been more than astonished, after discovering from their boat the character of our battery, by no means so formidable in appearance as it proved to be, and especially after the gallant assurance of Capt. Rucker, added to Gen. Trudeau's, that he was ready for the contest. They must certainly have been perfectly astonished the next day, with three of their best gunboats devoted to the task, at their utter inability to demolish that single battery, whi

ragg having routed Buell, Johnston may be enabled-to regain Nashville, and Forts Henry and Donelson, and Polk Columbus and Hickman. This done, the enemy's gunboats will have to cease their bombardment of the island, or render themselves liable to be out off. As if they were apprehending something of this kind, the enemy have been moving the land forces which invested New Madrid to Hickman and Columbus, where they can be ready to advance either down the river against the island, or against Gen. Polk's army on the railroad. One thing seems certain, a heavy blow to one side or the other must soon be effected somewhere in Tennessee. Whatever the final issue at Island 10, Gen. Trudeau and our army there deserve the highest gratitude of the country for their success and determination thus far in holding that position against the superior appliances of the enemy for its bombardment. While alluding to Gen. Trudeau, I must not omit mentioning an incident of some interest in connection

S. B. B. The battle in Arkansas--another Federal account. We copy the following dispatch from a late number of the Missouri Republican: Springfield, Mo., March 11th. via Rolla, March 13.--A messenger arrived at 10 o'clock last night, bringing additional news of the battle. The engagement took place on Little Sugar creek, five miles this side of a stream of the same name, where the skirmish took place. On the march down, in anticipation of an attack on the South, Gen. Curtis ordered the trains to be drawn up on the north side, but unexpectedly the attack was commenced on the rear, north of our army, by 1,500 or 2,000 rebel cavalry.

General Siegel, with 800 men, protected the train for several hours, alternately retreating and stopping to hold the rebels in check, while the teams pushed backward to the main body of the army. While thus engaged Siegel was three times surrounded, but out his way through each time. The principal fighting on Thursday was done by Siegel in this way. On Friday, the engagement beSiegel in this way. On Friday, the engagement became general and continued so throughout the day. The officers behaved with much gallantry.
