(jy We are informed by Mr. Wm. Hope,
that the storm on last Saturday evening, done
considerable damage in the vicinity' of Rich
land Township. He reports the following
names and plantations as having been injured
e bv its ravages : Mr. McDonriel’s house, negro
| cabins, out houses and fences were all blown
uown ; Mr. Elienberg's and Dr. Chum’s
houses, negro cabins, out houses and fenses
were partially destroyed.
Personal—We were pleased to meet and
have a hearty shake-hands with Lyman B.
Gill, one of the Editors and proprietors of
the Jacksonport Herald, who passed down
on board the steamer Sam Hale last Monday,
on his way to Cincinnati, for the purpose of
refitting up their office, which was lost in the
late fire at that place. He looked well and
was in fine spirits. e.
Timely Warning.—The recent destructive
fire at Jacksonport should be a warning to
our town authorities, and no time should be
lost in one particular especially. We have
reference to the construction of a magazine or
I powder-house. There is scarce a business
house in Des Arc that does not keep on hand
from one to five kegs of powder, and two
warehouses arc said to keep in store from ten
to one hundred kegs. There is no security as
long as this is permitted. Will our town au
j thorities take hold of this matter?

A Card from Admiral Marin of the
Steamer Miramon and Marquez.
New Orleans March 31.—General
Marin, of the steamers Miramon and
Marquez, has published a card in the city
papers, signing himself Admiral of the
Mexican navy. He protests against the
capture of his steamers, and says that
neither the Saratoga, Indianola or Wave
showed their flags when they approached
him. He knew that the indiandla and
Wave belonged to Juarez, rt'nd supposed
that they were lowing armed boats to attack
him, and hence his attempt to escape.
Two shots were fired at him, which he re
turned, when he recognised the Saratoga,
and ordered the firing to cease. The at
tack was, however, continued with the
result already known. General Marin
says that he purchased the steamers at
Havana from merchants residing there,
by order of the Supreme Government of
Mexico. The steamers were to have
been nationalized on their reaching Mex
ico, incase they proved worthy.

thanks for full files of papers. We are also

(jyThe E. M. Ryland has left the White
river and Memphis trade and gone to St. Louis.
The White River business has nearly played
out.—Avalanche.
We find the above in the Little Rock “True
Democrat.” True, “the E. M. Ryland has
left the White river trade,” and report says
she cleared $10,000 before she left “the trade.”
As to “the White river business having nearly
played out,” we have only to reply that we
have two regular U. S. Mail packets, the
Sam. Hale and Fortune, to Napoleon} the
Gen’l. Pike and Admiral in the Memphis
trade } the Interchange in the Louisville trade,
and the Crescent and Iatan in the New Or
leans trade. The above are regular packets,
and are equal in every point of view to the
steamers that ply in Arkansas river. As to
the trade of the White river valley having
“nearly played out,” it is altogether a mis
take. Certain men about the State Capital
may use tnetr influence in roDDing us or oui
mail facililies towards Fort Smith, but they
can’t dry up the trade or the water of White
river.' Talk about a trade having “nearly
played out” that supports seven steamers.

/ Sinking in the Arkansas River of the
Arkansaw Tkavelek—Boat a Total Loss.
Mr. B. Frank Pierce, clerk of the 8. H.
Tucker, gives us the particulars of the sink
ing of the Arkansaw-Traveler, which oc
curred on the Arkansas river, near Marshall’s
Cut-off, fifteen miles below Pine Bluff, Thurs
day night. The Aikarisaw Tiaveler was
bound to Fort Smith from New Orleans,
having on board a cargo of salt, dry goods
and sugar. When approaching the cut-off
she struck a stump, which knocked a hole in
her bottom, and sunk her in a few moments.
She had severs I passengers, one of whom, a
Mr. William Pursley. of Dardanelle, jumped
overboard and was drowned She settled
down in water five feet over her main deck,
and soon after the accident her cabin floated
off, but not until all the other passengers bad
with their baggage, succeeded in reaching
the shore in safety. A portion of her cargo
will be saved in a damaged condition, while
200 barrels sugar and 800 sacks of salt, which
were stored in the hold, will prove a total
loss.
The Arkansaw Traveler was rather an old
boat, but bad recently been docked and re
paired. She was owned by Capt. James
Timms and Capt. Albert Thomas, her com
mander, and was valued at from $7000 to
$8000. Amount of insurance unknown.
Capt. Harry McComas, her clerk, came to
Napoleon on the Kale May and proceeded
thence to New Orleans, to consult the Under
writers in regard to the disposition to be
made of the damaged freight. In the mean
time Capt. Thomas remains by the wreck.
