LITTLE ROCK, ARK, April O.
I ussS TO wonder, while over IN your STATE,
/ wbsn reading the letters of TranslTssissippi
I correspondents. that their lcttcrs contained So
! little news cf interest Now / zee the reason
/ wky It was SO. How could one tell Of any thing
I nse oy interesting Wbaa nothing Of tie kind
| ever happened here. Life over here, sir, IS IS
monotonous and wesris9me as the report Of 81
/ sudit0r Of pubic accounts, 81 q lecture on tbs
res torasioB of the jews. Nobody has a fight,
nobo6y gets killed nobody gets mad and cuts
up generally, our newspapers never have auy
/ reWs. Ell Our telegraph communications are
three weeks old when tbeEget 70 Os, sni thsn
! they sre generally Brought in BY some returned
! dsssrter fetching in tha limb upon which the
said message had stopped to rest 8 few days
! bafors proceeding further O. but this is AT.
( kansas To those Of ycur readers who have
! been here, this is e sufficient resgen for every
fhinv being cut Of 6K. Te be suTo We have re-
/ p0rts here of some kind, and enough Of them
Every day 10 hear of a Ctory By Lee, or
! Johnston. OF Tavlor ia Louisiana, o. Msrmaduke
! in Missouri, O. at YicksbuTg, or s8mashcre; We
alsa heaT plenty al news from LiDoolu, oad
/ Eur0ps, end left. Davis, and the N0rihsra Ds-
! mccrscy, q pleTed-5ut Institution 30 eTsrybo6y
{ but "PTthon,n JEdgs Tucker and some folks
/ here in Rackensack,) aud-and-in fact every
/ thing from the rise end fan is the price of Leu
isigna ruEa up to the late ne rs Of or recagui-
{ ton By France OF EnEland Gust received by

Wei, 1ir. Eiiter, some ef ~ have bad o nice
tine sinca our arrival here beng APTa Jossed
III tell Ycu how e WAS. Yea remember when
! Gen Price left JaeEss1 fer ihis side Of ths Big
/ Muddy, I've, us & Co. IN p3rticula-l and the
newspapers thought azd said tbst the General
vss going to q feId where big enorgy snd gs-
4 uius would BE untrlmsisd. That he was going
to take position worthy of his experiences and
I sbiltF as e general. aHd q bright day was pre-
I diased foT Arksps7F asd Museum. The In
