The War.

W have further details OF the late bat
tie III Arkansas, which occurred on Little
Sugar Creek. The fight was exceedingly
severe and our troops conducted themsel-
yes with great credit. General SIGEL dis
played much ability in manoeuvring he
was three times surrounded and each time
cut lis way through the enemy's forces.

taken by the rebels in the memorable bat
tie At Wilson's Creek.
New Madrid has been captured by our
troops, after being evacuated by the enc,

Our troops have also taken Island No.
TO- after brisk fight. This island is sits
uated in the corner of that bend of the
Mississippi river which touches the border
Of Tennessee, a few miles farther up the
river than New Madrid, although nearly
southwest of that point. 1t is located
about two hundred AND City miles from
St. Louis, and nine hundred and fifty from
New Orleans. The elevation of the river
at this point is about two hundred feet
TIE average depth Of water at this point is
from ninety to ,one Lhundred feet, the
breadth Of the'strcam flom mainland to
mainland about nine hundred yards. The
currelt runs by the island moderately
fas: rate, and with the power Of the three
rivers Mississippi, Missouri and Ohio
combined. The island is near he SOUTH

bank Of the river, but that, a. this point,

course Of the river, south of Columbus, aud
about twenty six miles from Hickman. 1t

Rand Beats the Governor.

The Madison correspondent Of the Nils
waukee Neocs says the veto power does
not amount to much when "E. h" has a
bill to 90 through. He introduced one,
which passed both Houses, Incorporating
Singing Association in Aani,owoc coun
ty. The Governor vetoed it for the reason
;ha. it did not contain section expressing
the fact that, in the judgment Of the Leg
slature, the object sought could not be ac,
complshed under any general law, there
by conflicting with the Constitution.
This view of the constitutional law on
the subject, was not regarded by the Nom
bers as being very sound. By vote it
was decided tina! the Legislature had a
right to Judge for itself, and that the pass
age Of such bill is prma facle evidence
of the fact that the object could not be &C
complished under any genera law"

the 49:h Tennessee regiment, has been pre-
scn,ed TO Col MULLIGAN, asking him to
represent their case to the proper authori-

that they have been Iaboring under de-
ception as to the objects of the war and
the intentions of the federal government,
and they propose net only to take the oath
not to take up arms against the govern

without the aid of negroes, returning allie

the Detroit Free Press, are the glorious
fruits Of the resistance by the President,
