Bonds Issued »r the Mimtary Board,
&c. — Up to the'5th inst., the Military Board
iiad issued $S*J1 JtrtU in bonds. This includes
an order returned to the Treasury for $200,
OOO. subject to the order of the Board—mak
ing the amount $61)1,000. Add to the last
amount $100 000, the amount expended in
specie, in making odd change and we have the
whole amount expended by the Board and
bonds issued, which makes an aggregate of
$itfl;000. This amount has been expended in
organizing sixteen Regiments, and money ad
vanced to McCulloch to sustain him in the
West.
We have been! a good deal of abuse of the
Military Board, hut so far as our knowledge
extends, it is unmerited, especially in refer
ence to their financial management. Whatever
may have been their short-coinings, it is cer
tain that their financial record is unassailable,
nml we opine that the tax-payors in future
years will bless them
The Confederate Government owes the State j
of Arkansas a heavy amount, and just as soon I
as the accounts can be arranged we will be ;
enabled to draw Confederate notes, which can
be used in paying current expenses, and we
trust in redeeming at least a portion of our
Bonds.
xv/ vri.iz i'H'i -..
kick your Arkansas bonds. They are in
finitely better than the Bank notes that are in
circulation, and just as good as Confederate
Notes or Bonds. The leeches who have been ;
shaving these bonds will be remembered. We
have a class of men who are ever ready to
live olF of the necessities and wants of the peo
ple. Let them beware ! Retribution will
assuredly overtake them.

gyThe Richmond Examiner understands
that orders have been sent from the War De
partment for the establishment of an armory
at Little Rock, Aikansas, with ample ma
chinery for the making and repairing of all
sorts of arms. An agent has been instructed
to purchase all the good arms that can be
procured, infantry, cavalry or ordnance.

fly The Richmond Whig of the 1st an
nounces that the Treasury Department has
succeeded, to some extent, in its eiForts to
obtain a supply of suitable paper for its
issue, and that in a few days notes printed on
this paper, from an improved design, will be
emited.

Five Dollars for a Newspaper.—Papers
appeard to be pretty expensive luxuries in
Texas. The Houston Telegraph says:
On Saturday we paid five dollars for a New
Orleans paper. On .Wedensday, beside our
New Orleans papers costing us two dollars
apiece, we paid four dollars for a New York
News of the 20th, and four dollars for a
Herald of the 22d.

Louisville, by the Federal commander, was

and the imprisonmentof its editor, Mr McKee.

Retribution.—The following paragraph
appeared in a late number of the Cincinnati
Enquirer, which ran the blockade success
fully, with the assistance of a “contraband.”
It is but a repetition of a tale now told daily
by northern journals i
The cheerful whiz of the machinery of the
cotton factory on Third street is hushed, and
the lights, which in the early portion of the
night shone forth from every casement, are no
more seen. The hum of the hundreds of girls,
as they swarmed from the industrial hive after
each busy day. is no more heard, and the life
of the establishment has deputed. The irre
pressible conclusion of a lack of cotton has
caused the lack of employment.
This simple narrative, remarks the New
Orleans Crescent, tells a comprehensive story.
In itself it would be nothing, but as it is an
illustration of numerous incidents, it becomes
worthy of consideration. Scores upon scores
of factories throughout the North have been
closed by the same cause to w hich the Cincin
nati Enquirer refers, and the suspension of the
balance is merely a question of time. In a
few weeks or months, just as the case may be,
all must stop operations, owing to two plain
.and unavoidable reasons. In the first place,
the supply of raw material from which to
fabricate will be cut off with an inexorable
hand; and in the second place, the best cus
tomers these factories have ever had have be
come implacable enemies. By their own inex
cusable conduct—because of their wantonness,
rapine and wickedness—are their manufactur
ing institutions brought to naught, and their
operative industry paralyzed! Their punish
ment is just, and cannot be gainsayed.
Arrival of arms from Europe.—The
Richmond Dispatch copies the following from
the Forsyth (Ga.) Journal, which that paper
very imprudently published. As “the cat is
let out of the wallet,” however, the readers
of the Des Arc Citizen have as much right to
see the animal as anybody else. Hence our
apology for circulating it, believing-that no'
further harm can coine of its republication:
Several days since an iron-clad steamer,
from Liverpool, with 6,500 rifles and 18 can
non, blankets, and clothing for soldies, landed

were not in sight. This is a new steamer,
incased in sheet iron an inch thick, and is now
the propety of the Confederate States. Our
informant saw the vessel himself, went on
deck, talked with the captain, who told him
that there were three or four more vessels of
the same sort on the way ; and as soon as the
steamers could be manned under the Confed
erate government, the blockade of Abraham
f, would be blown to the ‘four winds.’
•‘He said that the arrival of this vessel had
caused considerable activity among the mer
chants in sending oti'the coffee, tea, salt etc.,
to country merchants, while these articles
are at a very high figure. He heard the
opinion expressed by ‘-knowing ones” that in
less than forty days Rio coffee could be bought
in Savannah at 1cents. Large qualities
are stored in Cuba, awaiting the removel of
the blockade.
--
(j’3^”The London Review contains an arti
cle on the sinews of war in America from
which we extract the foilwing:
As for the -proposed loan, we need scarcely
say that the "attempt to introduce it into the
London maiket lias proved a failure. Mr. A.
Belmont, the New York agent of the house of
Rothschild, has finally taken his departure,
convinced of the hopelessness of persuading
the English public to lend themselves to the
speculation. The bonds of more than one of
the Northern States are not worth more in the
market of the world than the paper on which
they are printed. We tell these people em
phatically that any Englishman will deserve
to lose every farthing of his investment, if he
lend it to the North in this struggle. Our
Government wisely resolved to keep herself
out of the melee, if the unreasonable North
will not force us into strife by invading
grounds of offence and quarrel.
—
Uangkrous Fraud.— We copy the follow
ing from the Mobile Advertiser and Register.
Us remarks are equally applicable to New
Orleans :
It is our duly to warn those who use keros
ene lamps to be careful as to the the article
of oil which they purchase. The genuine oil
is becoming scarce, and to supply the demand
a most dangerous and criminal fraud is put in
practice. Highly inflammable and explosive
liuids are mixed with the oil, and those who
purchase such mixture expose their families
to great peril, for the kerosene proper being
known not to be explosive the bogus article is
handled without caution, and the risk of dis
astrous consequences is most imminent.
Moreover, the lamp not being constructed for
the use of ai: explosive fluid, places those
around it in constant danger while it is in use.
No one should purchase so-called kerosene
without submitting a sample to the test of fire.
Certain dealers in Mobile are now practicing
this criminal rascality, and the public should
beware.
-♦
Seward on the Suppression of the Lon
don Times.— A committee of federal citizens,
indignant at the article of the Loudon Times,
which alluded to the federal loan as worthless,
have written to William H. Seward, suggest
ing the suppression of the London Times in
America. Seward replies that the best wTay to
effect that object will be for the American
journals to shut down on the republication
of articles from the columns of that offensive
but influential sheet.
(The Richmond Examiner says it is un
derstood that the board of commissioners, to
determine claims for indemnity under the
sequestration act, will be speedily organized,
and with the special view of the continuation
of the appointees as members of the Confed
erate court of claims, to be organized undei
the permanent Constitution. Judge Scar
brough, of Virginia, is spoken of as having
been selected as president of the commission
The St. Louis Republican, after refer
ring to the result of the battle of Lexington
says:
Upon the whole, through stirring event:
i may be anticipated la Missouri, we feel ever]
] confidence in the result. The prospect of i
I speedy triumph over the invaders is by n<
means gloomy.
The abolition organ is easily comforted. Re
verses such as Oak Hill and Lexington iuu£
be exkilirating to our old friends.
Saltpeter in Arkansas.—On yesterday
we had the pleasure of a conversation with
Mr. William E- Jones, a citizen of Davidson
county, from whom we derived some interest
ing information of the saltpeter mines at the
head of White river, in Arkansas.
Mr. Jones stated that at that point there
are two mines capable, upon the introduction
of the proper amount of labor, of furnishing
five thousand pounds of saltpeter per day.
At present, operations are conducted in but
one of these mines, which supplies one thou
sand pounds per day. The niter earth is inex
haustible. and affords eight pounds of salt
peter to the bushel.
Mr. Jones and Mr. Robert C. Brinkfy, of
Memphis, who have purchased these caves,
are now engaged in the produciton of this
valuable mineral. They have a contract with
the Confederate government for five hundred
thousand pounds of saltpeter.
Mr. Jones thinks that within thirty days he
will be able to turn out from twenty to twenty
five hundred pounds of peter per day, provided
he can get the necessary numbers of laborers,
to procure which is the ooject of his mission
to this city.—[Nashville Banner.

ScAREDl-The movements of the Confederates,
under Gen. Buckner, have given rise to a big
scarce on the other side of the Ohio, as may
be inferred from the following paragraphs
from the Evansville Journal of the 24th :
The city was fill I of rumors Saturday rela
tive to the occupation of Russellville and Hop
kinsville by Confederate troops. It was stated
that the forces under Pillow who lately threat
ened Paducah, were coming via Hopkinsville
to the Ohio river, with the intention of occu
pying Henderson.
"To YoeH Tents, O Israel!”—Men of
Evansville, the hour of speculation and dis
cussion is past. The tide of the rebellion
rolls toward your own firesides. Roger Han
son is on Green river with 2000 traitors and
six cannon; 2000 rebels are reported at Mor
ganfield, thirty-five miles distant. Henderson
is in danger; Evansville is threatened; not an
hour, not a moment is to be lost. He who
now stands back and refuses to bear arms in
defense of the city, richly deserves a coward’s
grave, __
Sufficiency of Pork in the South.—
The apprehensions of our people in regard
to the deficiency of bacon in the future are
not well founded, if we can rely upon the
statistics of the “hog crop” of the United
States, as given in the census report of 1850.
According to that report, the fact appears
(surprising, doubtless, to many of our readers)
that of the thirty millions three hundred
thousand hogs raised in all the States and
Teritories of the United States, the Southern
Satets, exclusive of Kentucky and Missouri,
produced fifteen millions eight hundred and
four thousand three hundred and fifty-three,
or considerably more than one-half! The
number of hogs in Kentucky is repored at
2,891 103, and in Missouri at 1,792 624. So
that, with Kentucky and Missouri, the South
ern States raise upward of twenty millions of
hogs, against ten millions in the Yankee
States.
--
{JSj^the following appears in the Fort
Brown (Texas) Flag of the 5th:
The news from Mexico is alarming. It is
now an admitted fact that the Mexican Con
gress has granted permission to the Lincolon
government to march hostile force through
Mexico to attack the exposed western frontier
of the Southern Confedeiacy. It is adrnited
that the consolation of four governors, which
was lately held at Guanajuato, had no friendly
object in view towards the south, for Messrs.
Doblado and Escandon fully understand the
necessarily aggressive policy of the southern
government. And it is also admitted that
Don Juan Nepomuceno Cortina is publicly en
listing Mexicans in the towns of Guerrero,
Camargo and Micr, for the purpose of making
another foray into the now comparatively de
fenseless counties between Cameron and
Webb.

Arrival vrom Europk —The friends of
Mr. Meredith Calhoun were agreeably sur
prised by his arival here, one day last week,
in good health and spirits, after an abence of
over twelve month’s in Pairs. He evaded es
pionage, and run the gauntlet of Northern
rebel hunters, by studiously ignoring the
English language after his arival in Canada,
and communicating with persons of the Eng
lish tongue through his French attendant, who
speaks English pretty well, and acted as his
i utp.rnrfifcp.r.
He brings intelligence of the rapid progress
of public opinion in favor of the recognition
of the Confederate government, especially
since our victory at Manassas. As he passed
through London, he says Mr. Yancey told him
he anticipated the breaking of the blockade by
England and France between the 15th of Oc
tober and the 15th November, at farthest, in
which opinion Mr. C., whose opportunities
for acquiring information were very favor
able, fully concurs.—[Huntsville (Ala,) Dem
ocrat.

Gov. Moore’s Proclamation.—We direct
the attention of our readers to the proclama
tion of Gov. Moore, which will be found in
another column. It will be seen that he has
wisely forbidden the bringing to the city of a
single bale of cotton, and it will also be seen
that Gen. Twiggs, the commander of the Con
federate forces of thi3 department, will co
operate with the Governor in preventing cot
ton being brought here. We sincerely hope
that neither the Governer nor the general will
be called upon for any futher exercise of
authority in the matter, as our steamboatmen
and planters must know that the bringing
of cotton here at this time endangers most im
portant interests.— [N. O. Crescent.
ay a young lady inquired the other day
of a sailor why a ship was always called she.
“Because,” replied the sailor, “the rigging al
ways costs more than the hull.”
New Cannon.—Two new guns of very
heavy calibre equal in all respects to the
Armstrong, have been presented to the State
by a patriotic firm of this city. Arrangement
have been made to give them a prominent pos
ition, where they will extend a cordial wel
come at any moment to visitors disposed to
test their power and witness some interestieg
experiments in gunnery practice.-[Charleston
Courier.
Sequestration.—The Charleston Courier,
of the 1st. states that in the two previous days
within which the receivers had got fairly tc
work, over one hundred cases, amounting at
; least to $200,000 of alien enemies, property
^ have been brought before them. In one case
, the property of a non-resident, now at th<
North, will be to the amount of $75,000 it
- real estate, and negroes. In another, the sun
t of $20,000, invested in a plantation and ne
groes, will be added to the receivers’ funds.
The Journey ok Life.—The following
excellent rules, from the papers of Dr. West,
are thrown together as general way-marks in
the journey of life s
Never ridicule sacred things, or what others
may esteem as such, however absurd they may
appear to you. Never resent a supposed in
jury till you know the views and motives of
the author of it. On no occasion relate it.
Always take the part of an absent person who
is censured in a company, so far as truth and
propriety will allow. Never think worse of
another on account of his differing in politi
cal and religious subjects. Never dispute with
a man who is more than seventy years of age,
nor with any enthusiast. Do not jest eo as to
wound the feelings of another. Say as little
as possible of yourself and of those who are
near to you. Never court the favor of the
rich, by flattering either their vanities or their
vices.

and Bulletin heroes in the world. Fremont
is congratulating the men, whom McCulloch
whipped so terribly, on their grand exploit,
and tells them they may put “Springfield” on
their banners as a memorial. Tyler, who was
the first man to run at Cross Lanes, writes to
his government of. the brilliant affair at that

At West Point, White county, on the 7th
inst., Anna Elizabeth, daughter of James
W. and Lucy C. Burney, aged 14 months.
Farewell, little Anna. Thou hast gone, but
thy sweet face will not be forgotten. Too
pure for earth, thy Heavenly Father called
thee hence, to shine around the throne of “the
King Eternal, immortal, invisible, the only
wise and true God.” Sweet cherub, it was
hard to let her go, but Christ has said, “suffer
little children to come unto me, and forbid
them not, for of such is the Kingdom of Hea*
ven.” We should bow in humble submission
to the will of Heaven, even when our dearest
idols are taken from us, for our Father in
Heaven “worketh after the counsel of his
own will,” and most assuredly “he doeth all
things well.”
