Memphis has been Of more value to us

running regularly to Grenada and Panols.
In Virginia We hear of great deal of
fighting between small detachments, but
nothing affecting materially the fortunes
OF altering the position of either army.
We have not room for details. Two Of
the enemy's gunboats the "Satellite" and
"Reliance" were captured by q party Of
our marines at the mouth of the Kappa
hammock on the night of the 22nd.
Col. Quantrell burnt Lawrence, Kansas,
on the night of the 2lst killings0ver 100
citizens, the mayor, editors of both tho
newspapers, aud 80 negro soldiers. He
took money from the banks aud an i'm
mense amount Of plunder. If true it is
much to be regretted. ~
FALf OF LITTLE RoCK-We regret
to announce that Little Rock is in the
hands Of the enemy. Gen. Price with
brave but inadquate force was unable to
prevent it. they did not dare to attack
him 10 front, but went in large force to
Terry's Ferry about eight miles below the
city Here they threw over poutoon
bridge, planting batteries to protect it
against any force which could be sent to
oppose them. When Genl, Price became
apprised of the condition of affairs he
withdrew his army to this side of the river
and fell back from the city. We feel
sure that when the whole matter comes to
be Investigated it will be found that Genl.
Price acted with judgment and gallan-
try, and that his course saved the army
for the protection of South Arkansas. and
the good of the department.. To have lost
it would have lost the whole Of our State
st blow.
The enemy entered the city last Thurs.
day evening, shortly after our army had
retired. Genl. Fagan's brigade brought
up the rear. A sharp engagement took
place at Ayliff'e about IL miles this 81 de OF
the city between the enemy's cavalry and
our rear guard, and another at Thomp-
sons, by which the pursuit was checked
and our army enabled to retire in order
with its trains.
We are proud to learn that the artillery
company of our young friend Capt.
Chamb. Etter behaved with gallantry at
the Rock and has done noble service.
Our army is now at Rockport with .
portion back at the Saline. We can give
no idea of future movements.
The loss of Little Rock has been expect
ed, and is really matter of little impor-
tance as affecting the cause of the South.
There is no occasion for depression. but
much to rouse US to energy.

bombardmeut was kept up by the enem ,
during the days of the Goth aud 21st OF
last month, Fort Sumter was badly dam
aged, and the walls left iu q crumbling
condition with several of the guns dis.
mounted. No impression seems to have
been made on Ft. Wagner, and very few
lives were lost. The principal missives
used against Ft, Sumter, are 200 pound
bolts Of iron two feet long. UP to the 90,
1912 of these had struck the Fort. We
give few of the most imortant Dispatch
es, since that date.
Battery Wagner is firing briskly on
the enemy's advanced works, four hun
dred and fifty yards from our battery.
CHARLESTON, Aug. 22.-Five of the
enemy's land batteries kept up fire on
Sumter.
More gins were disabled
One casualty, and heavy FIRE on Bat
terry Wagner from the feet and land bat
teries; also on Gregg
The casualties at Wagner were one
officer and 4 privates.
Gilmer's demand for the surrender of
Sumter and Morris Island, with the
threat to shell Charleston in four hours
from delivery of paper at Wagner, was
signed and returned at ! o'clock this
morning. Bea uregard in his reply, char
ges inhumanity, and violation of the laws
of war and affirms that if the offense be
repeated he will employ stringent meas
ures of retaliation.
Up to this time the threat to she'll the
city has not been executed.
We have eastern papers as late as the
SOth, nothing further of importance from
Charleston. On the 29th, all was quiet
with only an occasional gun.
LATER.-General Churchill arrived in
town last night direct from across the
Mississippi. He brings the most cheering
news. All is hopeful on that side
Charleston was still holding out on the
3lst inst, aud there was the most deter
mined resolution on the part of citizens
and soldiers not to surrender until the
ely should be in ruins. Braggs army
was in splendid condition, and confident
of being able to defeat Rosencranz at the
proper time. Lees army occupied its old
position in Virginia. The enemy are
making 30 demonstrations from the Mis-.
sssippi eastward. The army in Arkansas
is thought to be small, and entirely made
quate to over-run the State if the citizens
are not willing to be subjugated- Shall
that be7 For Gods sake, for honor's, fol
manhood'a, for the cake of liberty and pos:
terity, rally to Price. Go at once and all
will be we'll. Our cause will, meantime,
be won in the East. Only keep the enc
