"I fear much from the

from North Carolina, that an
attempt will be made BY some
bad men to inaugurate move
ments which must be COD.
sidered as equivalent to aid
and comfort TO the enemy,
and which all patriots should
combine to put down at any
cost. You may count ON my
aid in every effort to spare
your State the scenes of civil

pardon me for suggesting
that my only source of dis

would rally around you oil

1t may not be generally known that an orr
ganization is in progress in this city, whose aim
and object is the advancement of the cause of
Temperance. The order of Good Tempars is
the one referred TO- 1t behooves each and ev>
cry friend of the cause who is not already mem
Der of the Order, to rally to its support
/ Never before in the history of this city, was
there greater need of united and energetic &C
ton on the part of those VINO have the best in,
terests of humanity at heart, and the promotion
of all that tends to elevate mankind. The field
is broad, and there is for all who wish to
take part in the CREST work.
| The mad attempts of traitors to destroy The best
of governments, resulting in one of the bloodiest
and most eauseless of civil wars the world has
ever witnessed has left open wide the door for the
un brdled revelry of all the worse passions OF
humanity. 1ntemperance has found d powerful
ally in war The temptations and evils tina go
with the army were never more active and dan"
gerous, than they are at the present time Friends
of the Cause, at home, have comparatively an
open field to work in. In saying this, we do not
wish to throw reproach ON the brave defenders OF
their cnuntrys flag Is it not apparent to ALL that
the opportunity fer advancing the Temperance
cause, in Kenosha, for obvious reasons, was new
er more opportune than it is at the present timel
All that lie necessary for success is for the Tens
perance people of the city TO thoroughly arouse
themselves, and take hold of the work in earnest
and whatever efforts made to advance the
cause in our midst, let them do all in their pow>
er to promoIe and encourage.
| When the rebellion is crushed, and peace shall
again prevail, king Alcohol with legions tenfold
stronger than when Sumters guns echoed the
opening of the great struggle, will marshal his
hosts TO battle, iercer than ever before at our
own doors. Let us, therefore, grid the armor
of Faith Hope and Charity, and with firm resolve
to conquer this great giant evil press forHa
the good work,
Friends of the Temperance Cause in Kenosha
will you come up to the rescue of your fellow
men2 Let your future efforts be your answer
If even ONE fallen one shall be reclaimed from
the fatal cup, we shall be more than repaid for
all our exertlons. But if we shall unite with
strong purpose, our success will be a triumph.

AN0TBHEEs VICTORY EN Ark
ANSAS


LITTLE Rock, ARK, April 5, 1864.-An
expedition under Colonel Clayton, consisting
Of about thousand infantry, three regiments
of cavalry, and six pieces of artillery, ~
pound howitzers, has reached Pine Bluff, after
an eventlnl raid down the Saline river, where
they encountered a force of rebels, 5000
strong. The first encounter took place near
BranchvilIe, where the rebels We're defeated
after a three hours fight. They retreated,
and our forces followed them up Reaching
Mount Elba, on the saline, next day, we
occupied that place without resistance the
Ietreating rebels not daring to make stand
there. Our forces We're here diyided-one
detachment crossing the river, and another re-
connoitering this side. 1t turned out that the
enemy had not crossed the river, but were
discovered some distance from Mount EIba,
with reintorcements, and advancing upon us.
We prepared to give them a warm reception
by eXtemporizing Notifications of logs, rails,
and cotton bales. The enemy came up
with terrific ''vigor" but were sent back by
our steady fire. Three times they charged
on rs, and each time they were repulsed
We had the advantage in position, and they
had at least double the men we had
Finally they gave way, after six hours of
VAIN effort to dIslodge us. We then rushed
out and charged upon them with tremendous
effect, scattering them in all directions In
this engagement and that at Branchville
we killed 81 Of them wounded and captured
over fifty.
IN the meantime our scouting party that
had been detached and sent across the river,
consisting of about one hundred men, mostly
colored troops, were equally as busy as we
on this side of the river. They returned to
MS at dark, after having marched fifty miles
down the other side Of the river, where they
came upon a rebel train of 80 army wagons
filled with supplies for the force that we so
teliingly repulsed. The train was under
an escort of 500 rebels. The entire train
was captured and destroyed by our men,
and the entire 500 taken prisoners. Over
a thousand horses and mules fell iuto our
hands
These achievements over, and the rebels
so scattered that ii was useless for US to try
to get any more fight out of them, our ex-
petition took up its line of return march,
ana have reached Pine Bluff in high feather.
Our loss was very slight The total rebel
loss is 81 killed, 400 wounded. and $50!
prisoners, besides their train, horses and
mules.
