 On the 18th ult., Gen. Churchill ordered Capt. Mutt, who is commanding Louisiana company of Cavalry, to take thirty men and q piece of arte rv and proceed to the Mississippi river, and to an nov the enemy as much as possible. The Captain planted his gun on the river ten miles below Mo- poleon The Blue Wing, one of the enemy's trans ports soon made her appearance. She was fired at six times, and hit three timeS-thc last shot com pletelv disabled her. She was then surrendered to Capt. Mutt, who brought her safely to this place. Her cargo consisted of ordnance stores, cotton, and dry goods. Ordnance Stores valued at one hundred thousand dollars. The U. s. mail and twelve prisoners, eleven prvates and one Lienten ant were also captured. Capt. Mutt deserves great credit for this daring exploit. We have had fine sport reading Yankee letters; they mostly written by wives to their husbands, and young wo- men to their sweet hearts. They were extremely yulg 1T, aud show an appalling state of morals ex- isting in the North. think that the enemy are becoming very tired ot the war, judging from the tone otthcir papers. Ifthey repUlsed at Vicks- burg. it will, 1 think, bring about a revolution in the North Western states. All of their papers ad- init terrible defeat in Virginia, but claim to have whipped Hindman badly in Arkansas.
 The enemy disregardng all rules of civilized wlrfarc, are committing the most unheard of out rlges on the citizens Of this state, who reside on the Mississippi river, such burning and robbng houses, stealing negroes and killing stock. Our military authorities ought to adopt some measure, that will stop these outrages. We stand greatly in need ofmore cavalry and artillery. Two regiments of cavalry with dozen pieces of artillery, station ed the Mississippi river, could prevent the enc my navigating it with their muskcts. Tine enemy have as yet made no demonstrations against this place, though we hourly expect to be visited by tieir black, prowhng demons.
 The fate of the Arkansas Valley-I might say the late of the state, depends on our abtyto hold valley is the granary of the State l have recent y travelled over the greater portion of your state, and l am confident if the enemy get possession of, and destroy the corn the Arkansas river, that the people of Arkansas will absolutely suffer for the want of bread. Our soldiers here in high spir- its, and anxious to meet the enemy. All have the utmost confidence in the courage and ability of Gen. Churchill We are prepared to give the en- emy a warm reception, should he have the rashness to vsitus. TEXAS.
