The Des Arc weekly citizen., 1861-10-16

MARyLAND-A gentleman, who was re- gently in Maryland gives us a very interesting account of the state of feeling among the peo- ple. and of the horrible despotism of the Yam kee mercenaries. Arrests are nightly made of the most respectable citizens; and in large districts of country, men never sleep at home. They seek safety in the woods. Rogueries and outrages of all kinds are constantly per petrated. The negroes, almost without an ex- ception, are true to their masters, and have an intenser hate of the Yankees than even their mistresses have. Very often. through their vigilance, their masters have been enabled to escape the myrmidons of Lincoln.
 The wish, the prayer of the whole popula- tion, white and black, men, women and chil dren, is for the early coming of Jeff. Davis Army of Deiverance. When that day does arrive, it will witness such an uprisng-such an exterminating fury, as the world has Dever seen The New York Herald states that the Maryland population is so intensely rebellious that Confederate army could march from the Potomac to Baltimore without the fact be- ing made known to the Federal authorities by any of the inhabitants. Surely, such people, outraged and panting for liberty, have right to all our sympathies and to all the aid our arms can give them.-[ Richmond Whig, 18th.

Praying for a Dying Enemy

A correspondent of the New Orleans Cres- cent says:
 A most touching scene took place in the affair of Major Hoods already alluded to. Among those mortally wounded was a northern man : he was shot through both hips and had fallen on the road, where he was discovered by a Louisianian. He was suffering the most in- tense pain He begged for water, which was promptly given him, his head and shoulders were raised to render him more comfortable, and his face and forehead bathed in water. He urged the Louisianian to pray for him, who was forced to acknowledge his inability to pray. At that moment, one of the Meek
 enburg troopers came up, and the poor fellow urged his request again with great earnestness. The Virglnian knet at his side and asked the wounded man if he was a Christian and be- lleyec in the promise of Christ to save repent- ant sinners. He answered yes. The trooper then commenced prayer, fervid, pathetic and eloquent !; the soldier,s face lost all the traces of his recent suffering and became placid and benignant, and in his new born love for his enemy, attempted to encircle his neck with his arm, but only reached the shoulder, where 1t rested, and with his gaze riveted on the face of the prayerful trooper, he appeared to drink Tn the words of hope and consolation, the promises of Christ's mercy and salvation. which flowed from his lips Gas the parched earth drinketh up the rain ;''-and as the sol- emn amen died on the lips of the Christian soldier the dead mans hand re!apsed it's hold and fell to the ground, and his spirit took it's flight to unknown realms. The scene was solemn and impressive, and the group were all Tn Tn tears. The dying never weep, 'tis said. HaVing no implements with which to dig his grave, and expecting the return of the enemy ln iaIse Iorce, they left him, not, however, without arranging his dress, straightenipg his limbs, and crossing his hands on his chest. leaving evidences to the dead mans compan, Ions that his last moments had been adminis- tered to by humane and Christian men.
