Federal Reports from Arlansas.

We have the Memphis Bulletin, Of the 18Th
inst, which gives some particulars frOm ArkAn-
sas, derived from parties who claimed to have
left Little Rock on the l4th. The Bulletin
says:
The rebels have not only evseuatsd Little
Rock, but it is thought that they viii leave the
State altogether. OtheTs, however. think diffsr-
ently, and suppose that Smith and Price will re-
tire to ATksdelphia, and there make a stand
General StseleS forces have quietly occnpied
the rebel State capitol, capturing some heavy
cannon and considerable amount Of ordnance
stores. Lsrge numbers Of the rebels deserted

Rock" They have no idea of being
drsgged over the plains of Texss to Rght
fer homes and hresides which are
already ia the possession Of the Federal forces.
evidently believing that they eau much better
subserve the interest Of their families and the
country at large, by remaining at their homes
and with their families. When last heard from,
the rebel army under Price and Smith was at
Arkadelphia. This place is & considerable Little
village, situated on the west bank sf the Odsch-
ita river, about siXty-dve miles southwest of
Little Rock and contained when the war bsoks

cratic Gaias.
The failure of the telegraph to report the Yer
mont election, held q week ago, was q favorable
omen. The returns showed that the Demo-
cratic vote, since last year, has been qu1dru-
pied. This result is all the more signif can't
from the fact that the Republicans plseed or
their ticket for Lieutenant Governor "a loyal
Democrat" A Montpelier correspondent of the
New York Express says
Our election has besu held, and the Demo-
crst;c vote is quadrupied from that Of last year,
notwithstanding system Of broWbsating, bul-
| lying and intimidation unsqRaled even BY the
despotism Of the French Empire We shall
have a fair number Of men in the Legislature,
and they viii be more than Of average ehsrse-
| Ter and brains. Many Of our former leaders
have done all possible to prevent cur votes being
increased from last year, but in vain Il Is
more than four this year to one last We have
dons well-lully as well as we expected.
The coOscripion is Fery unpopular here, and
another draft would make the State Democratic
as Internally black as it is. Republicans vie
with Democrats in denouncing It There are
| four thousand seven hundred names down; and
out Of the number the Government got about
seven hundred men-sbout one hundred Of them
principals, poor devils, who could not raise lhres
hundred dellaTs, procure a substitute, nor get of
| by false swearing Do not believe that one
msn hiss gone who would by any possibility
| avoid it.
Since the above was in type we have received
returns by the Vermont ATgEs, from which It
appears that the Democratic gain since last year
| is ten thousand. Two straight Democratic sen
Et0Ts are gained, aud three senators chosen who
viii not act with the ulIss. There are also
very considerable gains in the house Of repre-
| sentativss.
