THE FEDERALs IN ARKANSAS AGAiN.-We had hoped that we were rid of the federAs, but it ap- pears that they are in the yallies of the White and BIacl, rivers, in considerable force.
 These vallies are the richest farming portions of our State abouning in corn, wheat and other grains and having numerous large mills. These are in tde pos. .es-ion of the enemy. Their num- bers were reported here a from eight thirty thous and. and 1t was believed, by many, that they were advancing upon this place.
 The trath viii be found to be that the great body of Curtis army has gone to Tennessee, leav- ing me eight or ten thousand above Us. This force, being starved out in Missouri, has venured into the rich vales of Arkansas to procure food. There is nothing to induce them to come here.- The few.bales of cotton we are assured will be burnt as soon as the doodles set their faces Little Backward. Beyond the public stores necessary for the hospitals, there are no stores here.
 We are told that the Yankees have refraned from stealing as a general thing in the counties they occupy. They often do this when first com ing into country to lull the people into secu- rty and to induce them to let their property re- main.

BURNING Corros MT. Carer, ef Franklin countv, writes us an excellent letter concerning the burning of cotton on the upper Arkansas. There is not great deal of it, but enough perhaps 10 induce the federals to visit that country and steal necroes and wagons to haul it of. We agree with Mir. Carter that it should be burnt, and suggest to him that the ba es balk cotton, be weighed in the presence of witnesses and piled ready f the torch. This should be done at once. And tho fact of it's heinz done would to more 70 keep the doodles away than a small army.
 We trust that the fedcrals may not he abo to s,et hale of cotton from Arkansas.

The following special order WAS ssned by Gen. Curtis on the 26th, dated headquarters of the army of the Southwest:
 Charley Morton, Hamilton Kennads, and Aexar- der Davis colored men, formerly slaves employed in the rebel service and taken contraband of war; are hereby confscated and not being needed in the pub lie service are permitted to pass the pskets Of ths command northward, without let or hndrance, and are forever emaneipeted from the service of the mas ters who allowed them aid in efforts to break uP the government and laws of our country.
 Here is federal commander assuming the right to emancipate slaves, at the same time he declares that he does not come to disturb any relation Of master or slave, and will respect private property Lincoln sends message to his Congress advising them to assume payment for slaves where the leg slatures of the border States will provide for their emancipation, an, the federal Congress coincide with the Baboon. By so doing they admit that the federal Congress has not the power but thatt lies in the several States. If that be 50, then the act of Curtis is in violation of law and without force, If Curtis has thisrght then the civil authority IS subordinate to the military

County Levy, 1852,

IN compliance with the provision Of Section
/ of Article 90 Of the Code of Public
General Laws of Maryland, the following
statement of the levy for 1862, to meet the
current expenses of the County for that year,
is herewith submitted aud published by the
direction of the County Commissioners of
Allegany County: .geH- sElE
The whole levy amounts to the aggregate
sum of S35, 754 90, for the payment of which
forty cents in each hundred dollars, upon the
assessed property in said County, were levied,
which assessment amounts to IS ,938,7l0 fer
the present year, exceeding that of the last
year S373,77G. The assessment stands alta
higher figure now thar at any previo:s time
since the general assessment of 1862. This
large increase is the result of much pains aud
labor on the part of the Commissioners in
putting upon the County books property and
persons heretofore unasscsscl. 1t is proper
to state that S5S 900 Of the above was re-
turned by the late Collector. 1t will be seen
that State and County tax of S2,429 will
be thus secured not before realized.
The per ccntage for 1862 exceeds that OF
the previous year six cents in the hundred
dollars for tie County tax. This increase is
owing to the insufficient levies of 1861, and
particularly those for the roads, which IN
connection with several freshets within the
last nine months have rendered extraordinary
levies for that purpose absolutely necessary.
The amount appropriated at the late session
for the roads amounts to 7,430; for 1861 it
was only $2,s47; 81, 500 were levied for the
use Of the City Of Cumberland in accordance
with long established usage, but this levy
WAS withheld from the city for the last year
or two. Had tho latter levy been refused,
and that for the roads been kept at the
amount Of last year, the per centage for the
County tax would have been less than "a
cents in the hundred dollars-which was the
levy for the year 1861.
The present levy for the State tax is TWEEN
ty-fvu cents in the hundred dollars. 1t was
put at that rate by the act of 1862, chapter
1876.
