Ghastly spectacies Oh the Arkansas.
From parties who arrived YESTERDAY
from the neighbOrhood of the Perkins
Place, about eighteen miles down the
river, we learn the particulars OF one
OF the most CHASTITY and sickening spec-
tacles which we have eyer been called
upon TO publish.
Those of our readers who have ever
visited this locality will remember the
old graveyard which was situated a
short distance below Perkins Place,
and which for many years prior to the
war was the common cemetery of the
entire surrounding neighborhood. It
has been used for the same purpose
since that time, and was the receptacle
of about 500 bodies. The graveyard
contains about four acres, and the in
terments were SO numerous that the
entire space was well filled, and was
situated Immediately on the bank of
the river.
The recent rise in the Arkansas was
so great and the current so swift, that
it carried oil the whole cemetery and
its Wondering contents of humanity.
The river for miles was Utterly covered
with the floating remains of the dead.
The many old and ancient interments
as soon as the water struck them, erum-
bled into atoms, and were borne off on
the bosom of the river in unreclaima-
BILE particles. Those more recently
buried, and in Q moderate state of pres
eryation, floated off like SO many logs
and in many cases were rescued by the
the Inhabitants who towed them to the
shore.
When the terrible and sickly dis
aster became known the entire popu-
lation turned out to man, and BY ev-
cry means in their power, improvised
for the occasion, commenced the res.
cue Of the floating collins from surg
ing river. Some forty or fifty in ali,
had been rescued and deposited on
land. Representative Brown, Of Pulas-
XII, was present and assisted in the res.
cue OF many of the bodies. The shat
tered remains of some have been car
ried to the sea, never to be reclaimed.
Some OF the minor details, as related
to us, are too sickening for 9publica-
ton, and consequently refrain from
giving them to the public. 1t is suppos-
ed that not over one-third of the bod
les will ever be recovercd.-Little
Rock Republican.

LAVA BEDS, April 20.
A reconnaissance composed of Bat
teries X. & A., fourth artillery, and
company f., 18th Infantry, left camp
at 100 this morning, proceeding in the
direction known to lead to the present
Modoc stronghold. Capt. +. Thomas,
of the fourth artillery being in COM
mand. A dozen or so Warm Spring
Indians were expected to cooperate
ON Capt. Thomas left. The troops hay
ing formed line of skirmishers, adj
vanced without molestation until they
arrived at the foot Of the the bluff south
OF the Lava Beds, having, in the mean
while siynalled the camp that no Indi.
ans could be found. On reaching the
bluff the M0docs opened severe fire,
causing the troops to seek such shelter
as they could find in the crevices and
chasms. As usual the foe was unseen.
The first position become untenable,
owing to the fact that the Indians OBJ
tanned both cross and enfilading fire.
Up to present wiiting,7 p. m, only
two wounded could 60 to camp, as
nine wounded including L. L. Wright,
of 18th Infantry had sought shelter in

rescue, four companies being ordered
out, two cavalry from the camp and
two from Col. Masons.

wounded were forwarded, these latter
returning just now, without having

were intended.
