Y CAPTURE OF THE QUEEN OF THE WEsT.-We
learn from Capt. James NJ Ellison, who ar
rived here Mondar evening from Prices army.
that the Yankee gunboat Queen of the West
had been captured on Red River, near Alex
andria, on the night of the 14th inst. This he
regards as certain. as he had corversed with
several persons who had been on board of her
after her capture. The Yankees threw cotton
bales overheard and all but about thirty, who
we're taken prisoners, succeeded in reaching
the Era No on them, which was lying short
distance below. The Confederates had gone
in pursuit of them en- another steamer The
Queen of the West was estlma ted to be worth a
million of dollars. Capt. Ellison also states
that another gunboat had succ eeded in passing
cur batteries at Vicksburg.
Capt. Ellison has our thanks for file of late
papers.

to say to our readers, and give place to the
letter of our correspondent, Sam. W. Williams.
Sam has written the clearest, most ineligible,
Murfreesboro' which we have yet seen. The
facts agree in the main with all other accounts,
and are doubtless as correct as i ever possible
to an actual partieipator in such scenes. 1t
requires time and the patient labor of the
closet to write correct military histories.

gg of Cincinnati
PUT IT THROUGH.
Loose not one single band,
Binding our Union grand,
Woe is on all the land
Fyou do.
CHoRus-Long as the rebels can,
We can fight, man TO man,
Traitors the war began,
Put it through.
Stop not for parley. when
Knaves fall on honest men:
Blow for blow give again.
Three for two,
Till the last foe is dead,
Or over all is spread
Proudly the white and red,
And the blue.
Law shall i'll triumph reign,
Order shall come again,
Courage and hope remain,
To the true.

Matters Fl Arkansas.

In tie north-west the federals have stolen, nds- criminately, rom both friend and foe everything they took liking to, whether they needed it not. They took every fowl, horse or mule they could find. They are administering the oath to every body, and claim to have subugated that portion of the State. few federals are in Craw ord county, and with them about 400 Pin Indians. The latter committed several murders, and there was great deal of alarm among the people, The federals have flooded that part of the State wi:h counter felt Confederate money. The main forces of Blount and Heron went up towards Missouri with the avowed intention of coming down the valley of White river. It is believed here that cavalry force of the enemy has occupied Bitesville, and that skirmishng was going on across White river. Marmaduke, if outnumbered will fall back until he is reinforced, but if he has anything like equal numbers will drive them back.
 A flag of truce boat left here for Helena, one day last week. and proceeded down the river to the cut of, where it was stopped by federal gunboat.- After whle another boat, the Conestoga, came up. The flag of truce boat was not permitted to go to Helena. part of the prisoners were taken on their boats land few refused to be taken The aboilionsts were very ceremonious and re- served and were evidently afraid that their plans or the number of their boats would be discovered. Some conversation took place between the officers of the boats. A Sam Houston, formerly a resident here and well known to river men, was pilot on one of the federal boats. He told some of our party that he intended to pay Little Rock visit and pilot tn; fleet there.
 At least one fourth of Blunt ard EIerronIs army has deserted, and if they pressed as Curtis was, mlny more will quit the service. The iayhawk- CTS in some localities continue to be troublesome. Several lots of prisoners of this class were brought here. last week, but we have not heard what dispo- sition made of them. They m " be treated as prisoners of war, but, in reality they are brgands. They order these things better in Texas.

How a Texas Girl Writes.

We publish the following letter from fair correspondent in Texas, and commend it to tle consideration of the Texan soldiers, whose bra, very and patriotism no one doubts, but who become restless and uneasy in camps.
 Mr. EDITOR:
 It has been said here that soldiers in Arkans sas, from Texas, have become dissatisfied and have threatened to desert and that some have come home l hope their number Is inconsid- crabe and that the great body of the troops are firm and true. 1.-the appeal of a girl would be needed, would say to them: Dear friends, do not desert your post now. You have endured hardships and suffered for a long time, but en- dure it for a few mouths longer, and the victory will be yours. Think of the. horrors of suhju gation and the fate of southern women. Think sweethearts, and be firm. Here, in Fanain county, the women have not been idle, and the women o( Texas have spun, woven and made up clothing, besides contributing in every pos sib,e way to the comfort and welfare of the sol, diers. If instead of depending on spectators, who bling goods and sell them at i've hundred per cent, government would furnish us with thread, at fair price, We could make ample supplies of clothing. Since last summer have made l72 yards of cloth. auI if co,,d gtt thread would make as much mDre In ouc way and with our means we are fighting the great battle for liberty, and do not despond or grow inpatient for we know that in good time, God will give peace and. Independence. Let me ahjure you to remain firm and stay at your posts. have brother in Gen. Hindman's comman5, but know that he thinks too much of his noble father and mother to desert 1 would like to return with joy but, if he should desert, l would never want to See him again. I do not believe l have relative so lost to honor as to desert so glorious cause as ours in this, the most critical and trying time; Think, my frends, that the fate of those you 1ove the fate of civil and reli,ious freedom; the hope of the world and the glory of our beautiful country are in your hands. Be not recreants, but be men, brave men, true men, patient men and heroes.
 I hope, MT. F litor, you will publish this, and haply it may be the humble means of curbng the impatience of some in the army and inducing others to return.
 Respectfully,

LITTLE ROCK, FEBRUARY Il, 1855
M ,rtbern Accounts of the Capture of the


 The New York Herald blows considerably over the capture of the Post of Arkansas. It says they took seven thousand prisoners, nine cannon and immense supplies and ammunition. This is bare faced lying. They took 3,loo prisoners. and one third of them were sick, and they got badly frightened and left nearly every thing they captured-even left some Of thelr own tents standing. They did this glolous feat with 4. 900 men, a whole fleet of gun boats and ninety three transports. They got badly frightened and Jeff in the greatest hurry and confusion. They made uo use whatever Of their victory.
 The Herald speaks of it as the most impT tant success since the fall of Ft. Donelson. r. That is true, for they have had no other success. It speaks of it as |" an oasis in deser barren of any useful results'' That too is true. They have been whipped every where else, and would have been whipped there if the forces had been any where near equal As it is our men were overpowered by 10 or l2 times their numbers, aided by fleet of gun boats.
 The victory affords them no real qualification. It has not stopped an iota of the discontent at the North, not put off our recognition and in dependence day longer It has not even given them control of the Arkansas river.-- Their gun boats dare not come up. The cap ture of their gun boats in Cumberland river near Nashville, and on the Stone near Char leston, has proved them to be very vulnerable and by ID means safe in marrow crooked streams. l.

: It Is noted that southern papers are n

- It Is noted that southern papers are not furnished with lists of the killed and'wounded as the northern papers are. We publish all the lists sent to us, and some of them months after the battle has been fought. Our reason for this deficiency is to be found in the absence of communication. A battle may be fought in Virginia, or even in the neighborng State of Tennessee, and we not hear ot 1t ln two weeks. Another fortnight will elapse before we get particulars and month before any llst ot cas- ualties IS furnished. By this time public atten- tion Is turned to some other battle. We had made arrangements with our frien1s in each di- vision of the army to send us accounts of pat ties and lists of killed and woun iei, bat the want of mail facilities and, some instances, the orders prohibiting communlcauone Tor newSpa- pers being sent, have prevented us from receiV- ing them. We have no lists from several pat ties in which Arkansians and Texans were en. gagged, and if not contrary to rules, we would be plad if our friends in the various regiments who may see this will make ita point to furnish us list after each battle.
 - There ought to be an army register, or roll made for each Sate, gigi,5 the name or each soldier in t.e war, his company and regi> ment, and his fate. It could not well De com pleted until the close of the war, but the mate r;,Is could be collected now. The name and services of no soldier or officer ought to be permitted to go unrecorded. Our legislature ought to see to it. It would take a large volume to record the names ofthe forty or fifty thousand men from Arkansas and great deal of labor to make 1t.
