Daring Robberfes.

Five aimed soldiers entered the house OF
Mr.. Walter Warren, 4 miles west Of this place,
on Tuesday night last, and but for the escape
of Mr.. Warren from the house. BY jumping
from AZ. upper window, which excited the fears
Of the robbers, general pillage only would
have satisfied them. The robbers entered one
end Of the house, and Mr.aWarren, who is in
delicate health, ran up stairs. They then
entered the room occupied by him and his sis
tiers, and made known their purpose. They
got $25 in silver and about the same amount
of Confederate Treasury Notes, when by
some means finding that Mr.. Warren had
escaped, they become alarmed, and fed from
the house. 81
Would it not be we'll for. the citizens of the
county to form themselves into companies,
and ferret outsthe gangs Of these rascals.--
They are infesting almost every gkborhood,
and as the military authorities seem power
less to restrain, or, Indifferent upon the sub
ject, let the people determine to rid them
selves Of. the depredaters, and, ifscomman
dents will do nothing to relieve the co1nty,
let the people assume the controlof their own
affairs and defend themselves.
And. on the same night, in this place, be-
tween the hours Of s and 8 o'caock at night,
tho Tailor Shop of Mr.. John +. Cardwell
was entered BY robbers. and ABOUT sixteen
hundred dollars of ready made clothing and
goods. were stolen. The loss falls very hea-
vily upon Mr.. Cardwell

The PaintviiIe Disaster.

1t is but proper to state, that Gen. Hodge
was not in command Of his brigade at the
time Of its unfortunate surprise near Paint
vile. The Brigade, we believe, vas under
the command of Coils. johnson and Clay, as
gallant and as vigilant officers as any in the
service. The surprise was not for want Of
vigilance and energy on their Part, but was
occasioned by the wsrn out condition Of the
men and horses, who had been without rest
for several days and nights.
Col. Clay who was badly wounded and
captured, has not, it is said, lostan eye, as
was at Hrst reported. Altho' the Yankees
claim to have captured 100 besides killing
and wounding as many more, our loss did not
exceed so, all told.

COME ierate victories won in Trans MISSISSIPPI
pi. There is no longer any doubt that glori.
Gus results have been achieved forsus in that
quarter. thanks to Smith, Taylor, Price and
their gallant comrades iifarms. A correspond
,ent of the Mobile Advertiser writing from
Clinton, La, says there we're battles on the
9Th, 9th and 10th, all resulting in Confederate
trinmphs The third day he says the enemy
were severely handled and Gen. Dudly killed.
The correspondent adds:
81 am satisfied from private accounts re-
ceived here. that they have been severely
whipped. Even with all the disguise in their
own despatehesthis fact will appear very COM
elusive"
He also gives the following: :
"A gentleman resident of this place, who
left Shreveport about the It'll inst, and just
arrived, reports that Gen. Smith had concen-
trated his forces at Mansfield, between e, 600,
and Is. 900, and prepared to meet Banks. He:
also brings us good news from Arkansas. A
