The House, having a large Union MAORI

Kennou, our representatives, voted and

two reasons. let. Because it was right, and
I'd. Because if our soldiers should not &c,
home before the election, it would increase
our majority in this county at least five hun
dred and in the State many thousands.
Many of those who voted against the bill
were, however, probably honest and consci

were that our constitutions and organic law
contemplated that voting should be- done j

their gallant behavior:
Prom Arkansas we learn, through Rebel
papers, that considerable Union force was
in the neighborhood Of Scarcy, not far
North Of Little Rock and threatening to
move upon that place. On the contrary,
another report states that the Union troops
are rscrossing White River above Batesville
and rstreating toward Missouri.
Vicksburg papers publish what purports
70 be an order from Gen. Butler that any
woman who shall insult Union troops shall
b. regarded and treated as woman OF the

panied BY very bombastio paragraph from
Beauregard, expressly calculated to fire the
Southern heart. .......-

quarters that Beauregard very recently or
dered forward movement to bring ON
general battle, but suddenly countcrmande'

being thrsatened. by the appearance OF ou
gunboats at Vicksburg.
