Cairo July 2l.-The dispatch boat, which ar
rived from Memphis on Saturday, brings the
following reported escape of the rebel gun-boat
Arkansas: The affair took place on the morn
ing of the 18th. That morning, in consequence
of reports brought by refugees that the Arkan-
sas was about to attempt to run the Federal feet
the gunboats Carondelet and Tyler aud the ram
Lancaster started up the Yazoo on reconnoitre
Eight miles from the mouth of the river, they
came suddenly upon the Arkansas, lying under
the bank AS our boats rounded the Bend"
she opened upon them with 66-pounders Our
gun-boats returned the fire and for a short time
fierce engagement ensued.
Finding that the channel of the river prevent
ed successfully maneuvreing, they gradually
dropped down towards the mouth the Arkansas
following closely. just as the latter was pass
ing over the bar the Oarondelet closed with her,
indending to board She succeeded in throw
ing grabble aboard and getting out plank,
when the Arkansas opened her steam pipe,
throwing hot water across the plank The Car
ondelet replied in the same manner. While
thus engaged both vessels grounded and the
shock separated them The Arkansas succeed
ed in getting of, the Carondelet remaining fast
for nearly an hour. The Arkansas Immediately
passed down the river, the Tyler preceding her
maintaining a running fight with her greatly
superior adversary,
None Of our gunboats with the fleet had steam
up, and the entire feet so scattered that but
few could fire at the Arkansas. AS she passed
without danger hitting our own boats as she ap-
preached such boats as could safely do so open
cd upon her but her plating resisted most Of
the shot. Solid shot from Farraguts gunboat
No. 6, struck her larboard bow, passing through
nnier the plating ripping it of for eonsidera-
bic distance What further damage done is not
a.certained. Injuries 10 our fleet Is light

all our strength and go on to victory, OF we must

whether the rebels will allow us eace even il

THE FAST.


We have carried on the war sixteen months.
We have spent $5O0000,0O0 and lost by dischar-
ges captures and deaths, 100000 men. These
millions and thousands are quickly read, but
what vast sacrifices, and sufferings are included
in them. These millions Of money and thou
sands of men ought to have sufiieed to put down
this rebellion. They would have sufficed, had
we been resolved from the first to use all the aids
we could obtain. If our policy had been to
weaken the enemy by all methods in our power,
woshould have destroyed them in six months.
But We had vast number of men of all parties
in the North, who indeed wanted the rebellion
put down, but they wanted it done in their way.
They wanted us to fight and win battles, but to
free the slave even Of a rebel--to accept the aid
sofa slave--oh no Hence orders from our Gen
erals excluding slaves from the camp and ex-
cluding all knowledge of the cnemy's doings
along with them; hence the insane folly of re-
turning slaves TO their masters, even rebel mas
-ters hence the slow and uncertain policy of the
Government; hence the fact that after sixteen
months Of warwe are farther from successful
termination than when we begun. For all this
we do not condemn the Government Iteannot
move faster or farther than the people move
When the people say that this rebellion must be
put down at any cost,--eyen IL IL frees every
slave, even if it arms every slave,-then the
Government can say this and not before. Mr..
Lincoln has been well said to be situated like O
man who drives fast horse in buggy, and
leads duh horse behind. He sliable between

animals. But stern necessity is teaching the
nation that al men, whether black orwhite who
win fight must fight, and that God viii not let
us put down this rebellion, and leave slavery, its
sole cause, untouched, perhaps even strengthen
ed and more firmly established.
