One of the Richmond papers pointed out the resemblance between the Yankees and the Chinese. The Mongolians do not exhibit half the io, at winning 8 battle with heavy odds in their favor than do their semi caucasian broth CTS on tGis side of the water. As a specimen of the hyperbolic in conduct and description, we give the account of the taking of Port Royal, written by a Correspondent to the Philadelphia Press.
 After the fight, great deal of curiosity occur red as 10 who should first plant foot on the rebel soil There were many suspicious at treachery, and the fist boats crew to land looked distrust- fully about them, as if expecting to be fired upon by some concealed foe.
 Wl,an inc sentiment became general that the rebals had deserted their posts, soldiers and sea
 men thronged upon the island, and amid the great est cheering, yelling auQ firing, the rebel ban rer was hauled down. Those who had bawied themselves hoarse before continued to demonstrate their toy by screaming until they had no voices at all; and it is exceedng y questionable whether, Ill the whole fleet, there was any one who could give an ordinary rerimental order. There was Tn fact, very little order about the whole transaction 1t was no uncommon sight 10 see private shaping his Major Justify on the back. A number oi pri- yates i:unroyised or the spot game Of leap frog, and some hundreds of men were falling into each others arms, and weeping, laughing and shouting by turns.
 What strange set they are! The taking of sand fort or two with a force greater than it took to capture the fortress of San Juan at Vera Cruz, is made the occasion of hysterical demonstrations that John Chinaman would view with disgust We verify believe that if the Yankees could win decisive victory, some of them would fairly die for joy.
 The following is from the Richmond Exami- ner:
 SALT srscuLAroRs.-It is quite manifest that spectators in salt are about losing largely on the oirdec quantities from which they thought to dou- ble the ample lortu&es they had already accumu- lated in this community. Salt is being exported from Drake's works, Arkansas, at three dollars per sack. Salt is being obtained at Abingdon

FROM THE WEsT.-From the Fort Smith News, we learn that the small pox was abating there. There were but fonr cases in town, and they were not dangerous.
 The News learns from an officer in Col. Stand Waite regiment, that in the skirmish with the iayhawker4 in the neutral land, they killed five and hung three Of the miScreants.
 The telegraph from this point to Fort Smith is now completed about twenty-five or thirty miles, We see from letter of Wm. Morrison to Judge Wheeler, that he has succeeded in getting from 75 to 100 miles of wire in Mo, from the Old Missouri and western line. This will enable MT. Montgomery to complete his line to Ft. Smith,
 The Van Buren Press gives list of Gen. McCulloch's staff, with general orders relative to going into winter quarters We will pub fish these as soon as we have room.

WAR RoNDs. ETC, FOR 1AxFs.-By an act of the legislature war bonds and treasury warrants of this State and confederate notes are made re- ceiyable in full for State taxes, but not for coun ty taxes, the county courts of the several coun- ties being the proper legal authority to make them receivable for the latter We hope the county courts will act promptly in this matter aud make our war bonds, treasury warrants and confederate notes receivable also fer county taxes. We urge it as an act of justice as well as patriotic duty and believe the courts will not fail to take such action in all the counties.

Letters from Hon. E. W. Johnson.
RICHMOND, Nov. 27th, 1861.

RICHMOND, N0v Aitn, Iooi.
 R. II. JOHNSON: On my arrival here, found that the Indian territories had been declared separate military department, and the command of it assigned to Brigadier Gen. Pike, and so soon as his engagements will allow him to leave here, be will take charge of it. Also Maj. Geo. V. Clarke, made depot quartermaster at Fort Smith, to provide supplies, and material of war, for the armies of that region generally.
 The Indian treaties will be before Congress in a few days, when I will endeavor to hasten action as rapidly as possible.
 The States of Missouri and Kansas with Ar kansas, Louisiana and Texas, are to constitute one great military division, with Major Gen. Heath as the commander-in chief The var h Kentucky has assumed proportions that will re- quire the constant personal supervision of its able commander Gen. Johnston.
 The President has the highest confidence Tn Gen. Heath, and this fact will secure to him the confidence aud earnest and cheerful support ot all our State, and all of his department. It is indeed huge war in which we are engaged, and with the next spring we should be prepared for all the mighty efforts which can be inspired by 'he bitter modification of such and so many unexpected defeats, and by the malice, rage and madness of our Yankee enemies. They lose all the unjust profits they have enjoyed at our ex- pense so long, and which have made them rich and powerful to no other purpose than to render them heartless and cruel to us, and ourselves contemptible in their eyes. They are astound cd at their failures, and still continue to destroy their generals at each new defeat, as though it were their incom mpetency and not the great strength and herosm of the men of the South Oar independence is secure. They will be whipped out of their conceit, and we will have, l trust, shaken hands with them forever, as false hearted brethren and a treacherous enemy.
 We feel confident of our speedy recognition by England and France. This will greatly alter our relations with the world-strengthen our arms and promote our supplies, and must speed fly open our ports and markets to the world we will then soon enjoy peace and happiness, independence and prosperity, and may God be thanked for these his special great and good gifts.
 l will write you again soon.
 Your brother, R. W. JOHNSON.

~~~THE FIRsT C0YrEDRATE EEGINENT.-Maj James B. Johnson has been authorized to in- crease his battalion Of eight companies b. the addition of two more, SO as to raise 1t to full regiment. l. will then be called and known as the ' First Conttderate Regiment" It is Gen. Sidney Johnstons desire to raise Confedcrate army for the war, and Maj. ohnson' will be oue of the regiments composing it. The term of service will be "tor and dariag 0ae 'rar," with the privilege of an honorable discharge at the end of three years should the war cont ne longer.
 Any companies desiring to go in for the war, and join Maj. Johnson's regiment will be inform ed how to obtain transportation by communica- ting with the editor of this paper.
 We trust that the necessary companies will be raised at once. Arkansas has but two regi- ments and one battalion of men in the army fo, nte acar-Gen. Hindman's regiment, now under Col. Scaife, of Phillips county, Col. Rust's re- giment, now in Virginia, and Mai Jas. B. Johnson's battalion If Maj. Johnson can fH out his battalion So as to raise 1t 10 a regiment, within reasonable time, 1t will be the first. and entitled to the post of honor, in Gen. Johnston s army in Kentucky.

We. the undersigned, would state, that,

We, the undersigned, would state, that agreeably to the request, conveyed Tn the above, we have had an interview with Rev. Mir. Mulkey, (the gentleman referred ,o,) and 80 fara we could form an opinion as to the merits of the system, briefly presented by Mir. M., would report favor ably.
 In particular, we would commend the series of spelling books, and believe that their introduction into our schools would be productive of much good.
 Not the least recommendation of these books Is, that they are exclusively the pro- ductions of Southern intellect and muscle. We would advise that some merchant of Little Rock procure 2 supply.

Esy~ Our terms hereafter will be, in advance as lnllowS:


 as follows:
 Tt0o d0lldrs per GnJaat1n in spsc'e, or Tico dollars and ffty cents ln paper money
 We are forced to this by the great enhance ment in the price of printing paper and the great depreciation in the value of all kinds 0! paper money. It is necessity with us to keep up our paper Our receipts from job work and advertising having long since almost entirely ceased-we have to rely solely upon the sub scriptions to the paper to keep it agoing The public printing, owing to the reduction in prices made at the last session of the General Assembly, the great increase ia the cost of pa per and labor, and the deprecated currency we receive from the treasury, has become an ex- pense to us instead of profit.
 Under these circumstances we are compelled, when our subscribers pay us i'll paper money, to demand two dollars and fifty cents as the price of our paper.
 Our club rates will be suspended until after the war

Col. T. J. CurncHI1L.-We have had the pleasure this week of welcoming once more in our i.:idst this gentleman, who is on visit to his family and friends in this city, for the first time since ue has been engaged in the military service of the Confederate States. We rejoice to find him in the enjoymentof of excellent health looking none the worse for his services on the tented field. Col Churchill's regiment partici- pated actively and g4llantly in the bloody strug- gle at O>h Hills, and contributed much to the achieys nents of our arms upon that momora- bc field.

We see in different exchanges allusions to the war flag of the Southern Confederacy, which is now waving over the camps on the Potomac, bat no description oft. The reason for it's use is that the 'stars and bars" so nearly resemble the stars and stripes" that 1t is difficult to distinguish them. We gather from an inciden- tai allusion to it in the correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch that the emblem is the Southern cross. We suppose t is number of white stars arranged in the form of a cross, on a solid ground.

 ing and the affair passed of creditably. The tableanx. exceptthat of"Co,umJus and the egg" were well selected and represented. The fair performers acquitted themselves gracefully and charmingly. One of the pleasing features of the evening was the appearance of that master of the violin, Professor Arlow Farmin, who exc cuted some beautiful pieces upon that instru- ment with grace and precision that won him deserved applause.
 The ladies and gentlemen concerned in this exhibition will receive the thanks and prayers of many brave soldier for their exertons in his behalf They deserve all praise.

ADAMS BATrERY.-The artillery company encamped near the arsenal in this city, and commanded by Capt. J. J. Gaines, have given their battery the above name in honor of our es teemed fellow townsman Capt John D. Adams. This is 8 fine company, and we predict that when opportunity offers it will honor the name it has taken, and add still brighter lustre to the name of Arkansas.

pGg~ We have about three thousand dollars in Arkansas War Bonds, and Treasury notes which we wish to exchange for Confederate Louisiana, or Tennessee money. The Arkan~ sas money pays debts, taxes and purchases lands, besides, bearing interest at 8 per cent, and our only reason for wishing to make the ex~ change is that we cannot buy paper with it in other States. tf

TIE VoTE OF ARKANSAS roE PRESIDENT AND VICE PREsIDEHT.-Th vote Of tbis State for Jefferson Davis for President, and Alexander II. Stephens for Vice President, was cast on Tuesday of last week in tae manner prescribed by lar. Three of tho electors chosen, Messrs. Hampton, Grinstei aud Bevins were in atten- dance, and The other three, Messrs. Cross, Wal ker and Mansfield were absent. Judge Cross being misiAlormed in regard to the day for the meeting Of the electors, arrived too late to take part in their action. Coy. Rector appointed Messrz. .. P. Bertrand, g. H. Tucker and s.

The appoiutmeat of all three Of these gentle men, though patriotic and devoted to the South, from amongst ,ho5e formerly known as the Uni ion party and the ignoring entirely of the claims of tbe secession or southern rights party, cyea- ted much surprise and no little comment about here.
