Another Battle in Contemplation.—
Late advices from Richmond represent that
an order had been issued requiring all absent
officers attached to the army of the Potomac
to be at their posts on the 28th ult. The same
advices intimate that President Davis was
only waiting for the adjournment of Congress
to take command in person of the army of the
Potomac and lead it in its forward operations.
Congress adjourned last Saturday night. These
tilings seem to indicate a vigorous movement
very shortly.
Death of Levin Harrison and Alex
ander McIntosh.—We learn from a gentle
man who left Springfield on the 29tli, that
Levin Harrison and Alex. McIntosh both died
from the effects of their wounds received in
the battle of the 10th, near Springfield. Thus
have passed away two of the noblest spirits to
be found in the ranks of the Dos Arc Raii
•'•So sleep the brave, who sink to rest,
With all their country’s honors blest.”

The Late Battle Near Springfielp—
t The Wounded. &c.—Wo had determined to
await Gen. McCulloch’s official report of
this battle before expressing an opinion in
reference to his beinc; taken bv surprise —
But llie evidence is already sufficient to con
vict him of unwarranted negligence in refer
once to his pickets and sentries. He may
^attempt to screen himself by laying the blame
upon Churchiil and other Colonels, but it will
avail him nothing. It was the duty of him
self *nd staff to see that their subordinates
done their duty, and that the guard, when
•called in at 12 o’clok at niirht, was replaced
and a surprise thereby avoided. But we
shall advert to this matter more fully hereaf
ter, and demonstrate who is most to blame
for the shocking less of life, especially in
Col. Churchill’s regiment.
We arc pained to learn that the wounded,
especially those belonging to Col. Churchill's
regiment, have been most shockingly and in
humanly neglected. The Hutch who were
wounded, were generally placed upon beds in
Springfield, while the Arkarisians and Mis
sourians were generally placed upon the hard
floors with only a blanket to lay upon. Poor
McIntosh, whose death vve record to-day,
undoubtedly died from neglect and inatten
tion. The Hutch wounded were furnished
with proper nourishment, while our wounded
hud to put u]) with improper diet. These
things being true, how can McCulloch or
Churchill ever dare look in the face the
fathers and mothers of the dead and wounded.
I £3^" The Memphis Avalanche of Saturday
last contains the following. The account of
Fremont’s body-guard going over to Gen.
Hardee, we are afraid is ‘-too good to be true.”
We conversed last evening with Mr. Jas.
Roland, an old river mag, and well-known in
this section, who has iust accomplished a sue
cost-ful Secession uuivement from St. Louis,
list inform* us Diatom Saturday last Fremont’s
body-guard, composed entirely of boatmen,
and all picked men, left the city last Saturday
for pu pose of drilling. They were expected
back next day, but up to Wednesday last they
had not arrived, and it was believed that they
preferred to execute their manoeuvres under
Gen. Haidee, and they had succeeded in join
Iinghitn. They were splendidly armed and
mounted, and as no other method of ‘•evacua
ting” that Lincola-govemed city presented it
self, they chose to desert. The authorities
wore unwilling to admit the fact of th« deser
tion, but they at once proceeded to arrest such
hleamboatmen as had been fearless enough to
express their attachment to the South. Tnese,
in large numbers, were confined in slave pens,
IS and devote themselves to praying for the speedy
arrival of Ben. McCulloch, Pillow and Har
dee to release them. Among those known in
this section and imprisoned are Pilot Robert
Clark and Mr. Mr. Robert McDonald. They
are in Lynch’s yard, and Mr. Roland saw and
m conversed with them this week. ‘‘Uncle Jim”
Bays they examined his trunks previous to his
departure, but let him oil' very easy—only
robbing him of a few shirts and docket-hand
kerchiefs.

Camp Ford, near Des Arc,
Sept. 3, 18(51. N
Mr. F.ditor:—I deem it my duty to inform
yon, and the country at large, through your
valuable paper, of the l^nd and hospitable
treatment which the 10th Regiment, and its
officers, have i eceived during their march from
the place where it was organised.
At Springfield, where the Regiinentwas or
ganised, the ladies did all they could in the
way of sewing, making soldiers clothes and
tents, for the use of the Regiment. After we
left Springfield, we were marched to Camp
Merrick, in the extreme eastern part of Con
way county, at which place the ladies and
citizens generally, were no less devoted to the
interests, w'ants and comforts of the soldiers.
After leaving Camp Merrick, we marched
by way of Austin to this place, and our march
was one continued roadside ovation. Tile
march of a Ciesar or Napolebn was never
more triumphal than ours. The ladies would
come out at every house and cross-road to give
ms their smiles, and they brought bouquets
and flowers of the sweetest fragrance. Fruit
•f tlie rarest and richest quality, to distribute
among the men, and also, buckets of cool fresh
water to relieve the thirst of the soldiers in
their dusty march.
The ladies and citizens of Austin and vicin
ity are especially due the gratitude and heart
felt thanks of (he whole Regiment. Yvhile
there we received nice vegetables, fruits, mel
ons and cakes that were adorned with roses
and evergreens, and whose flavor would have
tempted the most delicate appetite in the
world. Our on hip was visited thereby the
fair oner, in person, who brought everything
they could think of that would relieve the
hunger and comfort the condition of the sol
dier, and when we left, then they gave us their
smiles and tears, while their hearts, like an
gels, were praying for all ttie success and wel
fare that could attend the soldier.
The ladies of Des Arc also deserve our sin
cere thanks—they gave us a cordial welcome,
ana nave visnea our camp, ana tneir swe.et
words and chewing smiles will long be re
membered by the Regiment. Who could not
tight to defend such women, such principles
and such a country as we have.
Yours, &c., AN OFFICER.
Camp Meeting.—There will be a Camp
Meeting at New Prospect, near the residence
of Renj. Blakeney, Prairie county, Ark.,
commencing on Thursday before the third
Sabbath in September next. A number of
persons have agreed to tent, atr.l all others who
can are invited to tent. Protisions will be
