correspondent Of the Chicago Tribune
with the army in Arkansas, writes that on
reaching Lite Red river a farmer came into
the camp Of Gen. Osterhaus' division. and re-
ported that he had a quantity of corn ne would
like to sell TO the troops. Several wagons,
with an escort of twenty -five or thirty cavalry
and fifty infantry, were sent to get it, While
engaged in loading the wagons, and not
dreaming OF an enemy near, the soldiers
stacked their arms, aud those not at work
loading scattered about, and the cavalry got
some distance away. The consequence of
this lack OF vigilance was tragic and painful,
and is thus narrated
Suddenly the woods around were alive with seeesh

Who though taken by surprise sprang to their arms and
defended themselves well they could But the odds

as tho story may sound, more than fifty miles
