Dreadful Accident on White River-37
 ofLemoYnes Regiment Drowned

!. We clip the following from the Mem phis Avalanche We shall endeavor to get if possible for shis issue, the. names of the drowned men. It is heart-rending and dis 1 astrous. We are anxieusyto get full par ticaiars:
 '.Mr. B. w. Payne, the gentlemanly clerk of the Cambridge, arrived in the city last evening from the wreck of that steam CT, and furnished us the following particu- lars as to its destruction; and the number of lives lost:
 The Cambridge had been to Jacksonport with cargo, and was on her way back to this city with little or no freight, when Col. Lemoyne with 2G0 men, hailed her some six miles above Des Arc, pressed her into their service, put his men upon her and started her back to Jaoksonpolt.
 That was on Saturday, and the boat pro- ceeded up the river The wind rose high on Sunday morning, and 1t was with great difficulty that the pilot could keep her off the banks of the river. Captain Williams, of the Cambridge, desired to tic her up, but Col. Lemoyne would not permit him, and she steamed on mp the river, until two P. NJ. When two miles above Dudleys Dread, and twentv-five miles below Grand Glaize, 8 North wind carried her with such force against oyress log on the river bank as to burst large hole in her side, and she commenced rolling as the water rushed into her, and sank in five minutes after she struck the log. The soldiers were panic stricken, and quite number of them jump ed oyerboaId and were drownded Among the number was Maj, Spivey, clever gen tleman.
 The cries of those drowning men for help, we are informed, were pitcous in the extreme. They had, unfortunately jump ed off of the boat on the wrong side--and as the Cambridge sank, she passed over the men who had jumped from her, and settled down near saudbar, with about ten inches of her hurricane deck out of the water. Five of her crew and 37 soldiers were drowned, making F lives lost. One man, passenger, pulled off his boots and rcoat, took bis wife in his arms and swan with her to the shore.
 The steamer Tucker, commanded by Capt. Grey-came up and took the balance of Col. Le,noynes $ men on board, and they have ere this reached Jacksonport.
 The Cambridge is total loss She was worth 57000, and the Government will most assuredly remunerate Capt. Williams for her.

New Mexico and Nevada have furnished the smallest in number each of them sending L. GOO men, Little Rhode Island has sent forth the greatest number in proportion to her size, for she has furnished four batteries of artillery and three regiments of Infantry, making 5,s99'men Wisconsin, Michigan Rhode Island, and Ohio have furnished the most hardy and robust men, the first Min nesota regiment being the most splendid body of physical soldiers in the whole vol unteer service. This immense.foree of vol nnteerS consists of 88O engineers, 59 rep- iments of cavalry, 6 regiments and 10 bat teries of artillery, 55S regiments of infantry A recent addition to this force consists of one regiment of lancers Of ,200 men and two batteries of marine artiilery-number- ing in toto d42 237 men, composing the volunteer forces.
