Bel"A Mr. Akin, living in the Forks of
Carpenters men very severely wounded,
at the house of said Akin, on Friday night
last. The particulars Of the affair, as we
learn, are about as follows: A scout of
some II or Ii men from the above company,
stationed at this place, proceeded to Akin 8
house, in search OF his son, who has for
some time been sinking service. Two of
the party-Mr. Vardeman and Mr.. 4. Ed
wards, went into the house, and after some
conversation the balance of the party went
10 another house, to search it, leaving Var
deman in the room with Akin and Edwards
at the door to guard it. A few moments
afterwards Akin seized n gun in the room,
and attempted to raise iton Edwards; Var
deman intertered and attempted to wrench
the gun from Akin; and in the struggle
guns, and fell to the floor. Akin then drew
knife, and cut Vardemah several times.
They rose from the floor still clnched, and
V. was forced back upon or fell upon bed.
Edwards by this time, attempted to inter-
fere, and as he was making towards them
Akin struck at and inflicted a very ugly
wound upon him with the knife which felled
him TO the floor Akin then turned upon
vardeman again, who was weak from loss
of blood, and commenced cutting him again.
The balance of the party by this time came
running back to the house; the door having
been shut, they could not gain admttance,
but one Of the number put his pistol through
q loop-hole in the wall, and shot Akin, the
ball passing entirely through his body.
Other shots were fired at him, and Varde-
man and Edwards rescued. Akin died on
the following day. Our informant states
that Vardeman could have killed the old
man at his first attempt 10 raise his gun,
but preferred to disarm him, and in that
attempt he was overpowered and wounded.
Both MIR. V. and Mr.. E. are very severely
wounded, and are suffering much. They
we're brought to the hospital on Sunday last,
and from thence taken to the residence of
Mr.. Greenville Smith, in this place, where
they are receiving all the attention that
can be bestowed on them.

FEDERAL MOVEMENTS. The best and most
reliable information we can gather cohcer-

State, says theI Washington Ark. telegraph
1--WE have nothing Official is as follows
force consisting Of about 2UOJ Infantry
800 cavalry, and II pieces OF artillery,
came out from Pine Bluff and crossed the
Saline at Mt. Elba. These are reported to
have returned 10 Pine Bluff, taking their
pontoon back.
Another force came out from Gaines Land
ing. This was estimated at about 4OoO,
oil cavalry without artilleey or wagons.
They had 600 pack mules, rations for only
four days, and $50 rounds of ammunition 20
the man. On the evening of the LIST they
were crossing Bayou Bartholomew at Pop
lar Bluff and Hollowy's Ferry, and gave out
their destination was Monroe. They had
n hard time in crossing the bottom, and
we're obliged TO leave large number of
their horses and pack mules, broken down.
Such force, without artillery or wagons,
can be title else than raid. There is not
the slightest fear of their occupying this

sB-The battle of Fort Fisher seems to have bee

no The battle OF Fort Fisher seems TO have been
Of the stubborniy esisted fights OF The war.
From the accounts published in the Northern papers,
infer that the slaughter was most terrible among
the Yankees, and the fort did succumb until every
gun dismounted and the fort reduced almost 10
perfect wreck, What loss in killed and wounded
we have not been able to learn. The Yankees
claim to have captured from 1000 TO $500 men. The
first named number ia probably correct. The defen-
ders Of Fort Fisher, though they were compelled to
surrender deserve the applause of their countrymen
for tho heroic defence made by them; the battle of
Fort Fisher will be classed among the most stubborn
delences of the age and well may its defenders be
content with their work when thcy contemplate the
immense destruction of life that IL cost the Yanhers,
and the powerful feet, and weight of metal that was
brought to bear upon them.

Every where we hear of the country being
