Federal Outrages on the River

Two or three days since . party of about thirty federals found their way down through the over flowed bottoms 10 the plantations ot Dr. Hardin and Mir. Felix Lanier, below Osceola, on the Ar kansas side. They came in skltfs and dugouts," and were well armed. Entering tho residence of Dr. Hardin they inquired for him. Fortunately he distant portion of the plantation, and being advised of the object of their vsit managed to secrete himself until they departed. 4 large number of his negroes were coa%ed off, and others betook themselves to the swamps, and have doubt
 less fallen into the hands of the marauders
 The federals searched the plantation for cotton, two or three hundred bales of which were found stored in shed, but they could not take il with them, it was leit unmolested. Mir. Lanier's plan. tation adjoining that of Mir. Hardin was next visited, but the report of the federals being in the neighborhood having reached him, he was better prepared for them. Hastily collecting his family and near all the negroes on the plantation, he re moved them to place of temporary safety, and during the day managed to have them conveyed down to Fort Pillow. The federals made diligent inquiries for Mir. Lanier of his overseers and others but learning nothing of him, soon left. Another plantation was also visited, and its proprietor whose name we have not obtained, arrested and carried off Mir. Lanier's plantation contained several hundred bales of cotton, which he burned after the departure of the tederas, fearing their return.
 Df' hdFulA hiSo dPpled tue totcH, Hot oHly 10 the cotton, but to his steam sawmll and cottongin, determined, with Mir. Lanier, that nothing which could be of any service to the federas should fall into their hands, His family was also removed across the river. These gentlemen occupy promi- nent positions in the neighborhood, and have been quite jealous in their devotion to the cause-fur- thering 1t in every way possible. For this they have been reported to the federas by some of the traitors who turk in every vicinity as fit subjects for arrest. Mir Lanier arrived in the city yester- day.-Memphs Argus.

Small rarties of men from North Missouri have succeeded, after many hair breadth escapes, in get ting through the enemy's lines and reaching here m their way to join Gen. Price. From them and from other sources we learn that guerilla war is rop;ne in some portions of Missouri and that the fed erals and tories have rest day or night portion oftbe Missouri State Guard remains under Parsons. They are poorly equipped and supplied with arnmu' niton buthave enough to enable them to kill suih~ cient nnmberof fedcrl!s to enable them to get good arms and suply of powder and lead McBride has force which varies from 2,0O0 to S,0OO men. When he needs large body to strike an effective blow, he can get them upon weeks notice Mis- sour; has been overrun but it is not conquered.- That portion which is most patriotic, is kept sub dued by the federal armies, but they only want an opportunity to rise. Sooner or later; next month or next year, our victorious armies will march through Kentucky and Missouri and when they do they will find friends ready to grasp the guns they may bring.

YANKEE OvERsEERs-The Yankee govern menthas appointed general overseer for South Carolina and the regions adjacent, empowered to appoint deputies, who shall take charge of the negroes they can kidnap, and go into the cultivation of cotton It is hard to say whether their impudence or their rascalty is the greater. But poor cuff is to be pitied. For of all bar barious devils upon negro give us Yankees They have long been proverbial through the South as the most cruel of task masters.

To Toro7oF,poSnENTs.-We have communications beore us: goo l. ld and indifferent, to the amount of several pack;, if not bu shels. Some of these ars O iu ,ects of importance and well written, but when we look at our half sheet and remember that we must keep space for news from the army and narratives of the events that trahsplrng daily, weare compelled to lay them aside. Ofsuch is the communication by our old friend Stephen Ray, which deserves place in print
 Mr. James B bee sends long article with request to publish it for three or four weeks ana aids, T think you can afford to publish this on free cost as can to pen it down, if you are true friend to the Southern Confeleracy." Mr. Bgbee submits to the slave holders that if they want poor men to fight their blttle5 they must see to 1t that the soldiers families are cared for in the absence of their protectors anI providers i'll the war. NIT. presents a system by which the governor ls 10 comm ssion and send man to each county and this mmist to go am 1ng the shareholders and get negroes and carry them to the farms of the soldiers and let them work to make crop. So far as tue planters sending negroes to make crop afor the famil es ab sent soldiers it is excel ent idea if they san send the overseer with them ifnot t i5 absurd. MT. By bees ilea of the governor commissioning men will not do. These fellows would not work for less than five dollars day and they would run up bill for expenses of not less than that. Elch would want a spun of horses and fine buggy and tha fist negroes he got he would make buggy drivers and b)dy servants of them.
 Mr. Blbae writes strongly and tells some start ting truths but we do not think their publication will do The rich men have it in their power to slve or destroy the country If they will plant corn and assure the soldiers that their tani lies shall not suffer- we will have men enough. Ii they are too stingy do this they will lose every thing. If the country is overun, the poor mer can take to the woods and hold the vandals at bay while the rich man and his negroes and cotton fields are ruined. A planter who does not see this would not believe though one should rise from the dead and it is fcIly to talk to him.
 "A soldier'' writing from Memphis, On the 3l inst, wants 10 know why Arkansas don't build gnr boats and offers $500 to start one. ToO late now We could not get the iron plates If it can bt done at all, the way would be to make up suth cient sum and have the boat built at New Orleans or yicksburg.
 N.T. M. sends us some lines which are very patriotic, slightly egotistical and "l do very veil if we had room.
 Mir Collier also sends us a song; very good, in- spirng and patriotic no doubt, but don't think it equal to the MarselIase hymn or Gen. Pike'S Dixie and so we respectfully decline"
 There arc host of others, which we have not space even to notice We have about half a mile of poetry of various styles and descriptions. Our Saline county friend, will see that he was right about the proper point Of defence but that it $ too latenow to publish his article.
