FROM ARKANsAs.-The army of the south
west, marching on Little Rock under General
Curtis, has Just been reorganized-three divis-
ions instead of four constituting the new ar
rangement as follows:
First division, Brig. Gen. Frederick N.
Steele.
Second division, Brig, Gen Eugene A.
Carr.
Third division, Brig. Gen. p J. Osterhaus.
Gov. Rector of Arkansas, on the 9TH inst.
issued long proclamation, calling out 1900
men to protect the state from the federal adj
vance, and to serve twelve months. The
proclamation is a remarkably rich document
in the strong expressions so current in south
ern manitestocs. In it the governor intim-
ates the sloughing off from the dead carcass
of the confederate states, for which treason
able sentiment his proclamation is denounced
by the Arkansas State Gazette as a ''com-
pound of usurpation, treason and trash"
That paper directs attention to the produc-
ton ''lS a curiosity" We quote a single par
agraph =
''Untoward events have placed her (Arkan-
sas) beyond the pale of protection; much inn
paired, though not incapable Of resistance,
she will strike a blow for liberty, and continue
to be free; if left to her fate she will carve Il
new destiny rather than be subjugated. 1t
was for liberty she struck, and not for subor-
dination to any created secondary power
north or south Her best friends are her nat
ural allies, nearest at home, who will pulsate
when she bleeds, whose utmost hope is not be-
yond her existence. If the arteries of the
confederate heart do not permeate beyond the
east bank Of the Mississippi, let southern Mis-
sourians, Arkansans, Texans and the great
west know it and prepare for the future. Ar
kansas lost, abandoned, subiugated, is. not
Arkansas as she entered the confederate gov
ernment. Nor will she remain Arkansas a
confederate state, desolated as Il Wilderness
her children fleeing from the wrath to come,
will build them new ark and launch it on
new waters, seeking haven somewhere, of
equality, safety and rest. Be of good cheer,
my countrymen, there is still balm in Gilead,
the good Samaritan will be found Strike
now and ever for your homes and liberty,
against all men who invade the one or dis
pute the other. The despotic power of the
north, which seeks now to crush you, con-
tains in its own creation ripe seeds for its ear

Major General Hunter.

From the Portland (Me) Courier.
The writer of the following communication
is well acquainted with Gen. Hunter and the
condition Of the country in the region of his
command -
Major General Hunter, or "Black Dave"
the name he is known by among soldiers,
whose recent proclamation is creating so much
stir among politicians and the people, is about
the last man to be suspected of abolition
views. Southern born, his military life has
been spent on the frontier and in the south.
and during our Kansas troubles he did not
have the reputation of being very strong adj
vocate for its admission as a free state.
In personal appearance, he is small in size,
and as his ''soubriquet" denotes, very dark
complexion, about sixty years of age. vet his
hair is black and straight as an Indians. with
out gray line in it, thin black mustaschc.
compressed lips, short decided step, elastic
and springy, -and you have the characteris-
ties Of the commander-n-chief of the de-
partment of the south,-under the left ear.
extending from the jaw to the back of the
neck, is fiery red mark, as though traced
by live coal, caused by bullet at the battle
of Bull Run and which came in rather close
proximity to his iugular; in the same battle
he was also wounded in the leg, from which
he bled so freely that he sank exhausted on

the field, and was found in a lifeIess condition
by Lieut.. Stockton, who brought him off in
the retire atOf that dav.
The appointment of General Hunter as
commander in chief of the department of the
south was supposed to be made to relieve the
somewhat unfavorable feeling produced by the
course Of General Sherman in the treatment
Of ''contrabands" at Port Royal and vicinity.
1t was charged on Gen. Sherman that his care
of the ''contraband' was greater than for the
soldier, and that the soldiers had to do a great
deal of work for the negro, which he should
have done for himself-to secure even his.
the negroes own personal comfort and clean
illness.
On the arrival of Gen. Hunter all this was
changed, the negroes were organized into
gangs with white overseers, and made to
work steadily every day, on board the ships.
on the wharf. Under the directions and press
ure of an overseer they performed a fair
amount of work
The organization of the blacks into COM
panies would no doubt relieve our soldiers
from much hard work under a hot sun, and
especially relieve them from the malarious
districts, which it is almost sure death for white
men to occupy, and the impression seemed to
be after the arrival of Gen. Hunter that the
contraband had got to work and the soldier be
renewed, and have no doubt that the organic
alton of the blacks now going on at Port Roy
al Is to relieve our soldiers of much of the
haFd work they have hitherto performed.

THE PRESIDENTS PRocLAMATIoN.-Th
benefcent, parental character of our govern
ment is thus made still more euident and re-
bellion deprived of all excuse. But we must
be permitted to say that there has, in our
Judgment, been quite enough of mildness and
tenderness in dealing with this rebellion alike
with respect to such of the rebels as have fall
en- into our hands and the dealing with them
and their property, the services of their slaves
included. 1t is about time to show the insur-
gents that our government has both the will
and the power to punish crimes of such turpi-
tude as theirs; that confiscation is not to be
all on their side; that rebellion itself is an
enormous wrong, for which no penalties are
too severe; and that barbarians and savages,
such as many of the rebels have proved them
selves to be, are not forever to be coaxed, bun
must and shall be coerced into good behavior.

WHY YORKTOWN WAS EvACUATED.-We
learn that Gen. Johnston fell back from York
town because he discovered that Gen. Nc
Clellan did not mean to fight him fairly, but
to protract the issue by regular approaches
and siege operations Gen. Johnston could
not afford to waste so much time and strength
of his army by awaiting their mole-like opera
tons. 1t was difficult to supply this army at
Yorktown, and his men were being worn out
in the trenches. lie preferred making Il stand
where Mcclellan would be compelled to come
after him and give him a manly fight. 1t is
believed that if the Union Napoleon had at
tackled Johnston in his peninsula lines the
Yankee army would have been annihiated.
Gen. Johnston is at the head of a powerful
army-equal to that of Corinth. We believe
the Union numbers are over-rated at both
points.
Worcester daily spy. [volume] (Worcester [Mass.]) 1850-1888, 1862-05-22

THE amount of debts due at the south to
northern men at the time of the outbreak of
the rebellion, which were coniscated and col
lected by the rebel government with relent-
less severity, is estimated at three hundred
million dollars. With this vast amount of
northern capital their wicked and pertidious
war upon the government was carried on for
many months. Yet in the face of this fact
our advocates of lenitive treatment of the
rebels denounce every scheme of confisca-
ton which has been devised, and stand with
their shields, not face to the foe as true pa
triots should, but against the friends of the
Union who endeayor to use all just means to
destroy his power. The time is coming, how
ever, and is very near, when every man who
stands between the government and the rebel
lion for any cause will be regarded as an en-
envy and will share his fate.
