ARKANSAS NEws.-In our extra last

Rock had fallen into the hands Of the
enemy. They succeeded in flarking

pontoon bridge across the river about 8
miles below the city, under cover of .
number Of batteries, which prevented the
small forces which could be spared for
that point, from offering any effective OPP
position Genl Price prudently withdrew
lii army from beyond the river and fell
back in good order, leaving the city to the
enemy. This movement will 10 doubt

IL If Gen. Price had risked a battle
at Little Rock and failed, the cousequen.
ces would have been terrible. The fate
Of all his army in the entrenchments be-
yond the river wouli have depended on
one frail pontoon bridge. The same
thing might have occurred as at Yazoo
river, when we lost SO many captured
The enemy would have found no further
opposition, and would to-day be in the
Red River valley. As it is, we hold still
all the rich country of South West Ar
kansas, and have an army left which ow
protects all our stores, may yet drive
back the enemy, and in the last resort
may unite with all the other forces in the
department for grand decisive battle.
No one doubts Gen. Prices courage as a
man. In making this movement, SO easily
misunderstood, and subjecting himself to
the censure of the unrefecting, content
to suffer passing cloud upon his own
fame for the public good, be has shown
moral courage entitled to still higher
admiration. Gen. Price is no rash man.
He acts advisedly, and in concert with
the commanding General of the Depart
ment. Patience is all he asks. Future
developments will vindicate the wisdom
Of the plan of defence instituted for the
Department. ---

Kr Editor: Agreeably to my published ap-
rointmcnts | addressed the citizens of Colnnl-
bia county nt Magnolia On Monday the Tth
inst. and learned unon reaching that place
that Dr. ". II. Mitchell agrcpably t1 n previDn
notice, had addressed them Cd tile Saturday
(thc 5th inst -) previous.
Aud On filing my appointment AZ ths place
fLew:syillcln lnn Wednesday tile 9th inst. learned
that Dr. Mitchell had spoken here on Monday
previous, the 7th inst, where Gen. RoTston
was in attendance. The object Of DIR. Mifchelis
speeches, a. | am informed, il To cheer up our
people, aud bring about "A vigorous union OF
sentiment and action for the advancement Of
our cause.
If Dr. Mitchell will refer to the Washington
Telegraph, lie will there find published list
Of my appointments Of at least A months
standing. And if he will meet me On NV days
az Paraclifta, Murfreesboro aud Arkadelphia.
and bring Gen. RoystOn with him, | will while
submitting my claims to the people for seat
~ thc next ~ >. Congress, unite my efforts
with his IN trying TO attain the objects Of his
travels. Ii j. thought by some that the pur-
pose Of DR. Mitchers appointments j. nm cleo
uone erlng scheme TO secure the re election Of
hIs friend the General. since his appointments
are always two days in advance Of mine at the
same place, and since the General makes his
appearance at the appointments, and makes
private speeches to groups Of his constituents
am unwilling that the efficacy Of cause 20
AL important n the one in which the Doctor
~ engaged should be in the least impaired by
excuses 30 fiimsy, but at the same time ptausi-
ole- And know of no method Of remedying
~ SO effectually a. to fall upon the plan which
! have proposed.
The audience which DR.. Mitchell addressed
at Magnolia Saturday, was very small in
comparison with the one which he would have
had by waiting until Monday, and think he
would find il much more to his interest to unite
with me IN bringing the people together at the
same time and place, than to make his ap-
pointmenis day or two in advance Of mine at
the same place.

Ia If the United States Government should
succeed in taking and holding the country on
the West bank of the Mississippi, they would
be obliged to colonize upon it all the emanci-
pated slaves. They would be nominally free,
but worked under sort of apprentice system.
The labor Of these negroes, under their hard
task masters, would be so cheap that the poor
men of the country would be driven out of en-
ployment by the competition, whilst they would
be subjected at the same time to the iutolera-
BILE humiliation of finding them selves rated
politically as upon the same level with the
negro. The enemy will make mighty effort
to be in position to claim this country in
peace, by right of possession, and by having
over it sort of organized civil government
This explaines their activity here, and all their
wheeding of the poor.
The poor of our country will thus be crush,
to the earth, aud find amongst thems selves an
aristocracy of Northern planters, working large
forces hired at nominal rates Their only
chance for the dignity Of freedom is in the
Confederacy.
