Capture of Arkansas Post,
HEAVY LOSS OP THE REBELS.
Our Loss 'Trifling.
CAlitO, Jan. 16.—The ram Switzer
land arrived here last evening from
the squadron. She brings news of the
taking of Arkansas Post on the Ark
ansas river, one hundred miles from
the mouth, by the land and naval for
ces under JieClernand and Porter.—
The surrender occurred on Sunday,
with all the guns, stores, and ammu
nition.
The full particulars have not been
received. The-rebel loss is said to
have been 550 killed and wounded,
and from 5.000 to 7,000 prisoners.—
These results may be modified by ful
ler and more authentic accounts.
NEWS CONFIRMATORY OF THE
VICTORY.
CAIRO, Jan.l7.—The steamer Rain
Storm, which left Arkansas Post on
Monday, arrived here to-day, and con
firms the capture of that post. The
attack was made on Friday evening
by the gunboats, the land force de
barking two miles below, and march
ing to the rear of the fortifications.—
The rebels had erected earthworks
over an extent of two miles below the
main fort, from which they were shell
ed ; not, however, before they had
done some damage to the gunboats.—
Three balls entered the port hole of
the Lexington, killing four men.
The main post, which is represent
ed as being very strong, surrendered
on Sunday. The officers of the Storm
say that six regiments were captured
in the works, and that at daylight on
Monday. two Texan regiments, not
knowing the place had surrendered,
came in to reiufbrc•e the garrison and
were also captured. Nettrly all the
ammunition taken by the rebels from
the steamer Blue Wing, some days
since, was re-captured. A reconnois
sauce sent up the river, had not re
turned at the time the Storm left.—
Our loss is not so heavy as at first rep
resented.
NEW YORK, Jan. 17.—A special dis
patelt to the /fervid, dated Cairo, 10,
says: " The fighting commenced at
Arkansas Post on the evening of the
10th inst., and on the 11th, the garri
son, seven thousand in number, surren
dered unconditionally. Our loss is re
ported at 200, mostly on board our
gunboats.
The rebel fort mounted nine guns,
and contained an immense amount of
munitions of war.
The rebels were cut off from retreat
on both sides of the river.

Carter's Raid and its Results.
Gen. Rosecrans is reported to credit
his success against the rebels, in his
well-fought battles around Murfrees
boro, in a great degree to the timely
co operation of General Carter, who
conducted . a successful raid against
the East Tennessee mid Virginia rail
road, and cut off reinforcements from
Virginia to Bragg's army. It, will
still further enhance the interest of
the event, if the blood of murdered
Unionists in East Tennessee, swung
from ignominious gibbets in sight of
the bridges once beore destroyed by
them in behalf of a free Government,
has now been avenged by a loyal East
Tennessean, who has helped to crush
a rebel army in the superabundance
of his vengeance.
Gen. Carter has returned from his
successful cavalry raid upon the ono
. my's lines of communication into East
Tennessee, which, in brilliancy and
practical results, far surpasses any
thin ever achieved by the rebel Stu
art. It appehrs that General Carter,
with a thousand cavalrymen, (Penn
sylvanians and Ohioans,) left London,
or rather Richmond, Ky., en the 21st
of December; that he marched thro'
Boutheastern Kentucky and through
the Southwest corner of Virginia Into
East Tennessee, and fell upon the
East Tennessee and Virginia Railroad
where it crosses the Holston River, a
few miles within the State of Tennes
see, and burned the important railroad
bridge there, and also that he fought
two brisk skirmishes, and killed,
wounded and captured over 500 reb
els, beside capturing 700 stand of
arms, and a huge amount of rebel
stores; and that, after thus doing his
work, and chastising the rebels, he re
tarred to Kentucky with a loss of but
ten men.
The distance traversed by these
bold riders, from the point of starting
in Kentucky to the point of action in
Tennessee, was over two hundred
miles, through a mountainous coun
try, affording few passable roads and
only the most scanty supplies. The
destruction of rebel bridges, property,
&e, must have been a vast damage to
the rebel cause in Tennessee; but all
advantages to us sink had Insignifi
cance when we think of the vast el
feet upon the battle raging at ilfurz
freesboro, breaking the hearts of the
rebel herds and gaining a glorious vic
tory to the Union cause.
We arc inclined to think this expe
dition of General Carter will prove
the most extensive, well ordered and
successful achievement of the kind
that the war has produced. Even the
Richmond Examiner says that " the
raid is certainly a most daring one,
and argues an audacity in the enemy
(the Unionists) which thee• were not
supposed to possess."

Fturnxn LEWIS :-111 writing to you
at this time, I do not know Whether
my letter will be welcome or not, but
under the supposition that some °in - 1y
friends may like to hear something of
my whereabouts and what we have
been doing, I will run the risk.
1 joined the command on the 11lb
of December, 1862, and on the morn
ing of the 12th we broke camp and
moved on Fredericksburg. We laid
in bivouac opposite the city until Sat
urday evening, the 13th, when we
crossed on pontoon bridges and moved
rapidly through the city to the front,
to storm one of the rebel batteries
which had been dealing destruction to
the brave Volunteers all day long.—
We met a Volunteer Brigade retreat
ing into the city, and had to file off to
the Eight to let them pass. By the
time they had passed, it was getting
too dark for any movement, and we
were filed off into a flat, marshy field,
and there laid until about 11 o'clock,
P. M , when we moved tip to within
100 yards of the enemy's rifle pits, and
there laid under shadow of a bank all
day Sunday and' until 12 o'clock at
night, when we moved into the city.
AU day Sunday the enemy's fire from
sharpshooters was incessant, and we
lost two or three men. ft was on this
day and in plain sight, that I saw Lt.
Benedict (nephew of A. W. Benedict,)
fall, being shot by a 'Mississippi Rifle
man. On Monday we laid all day in
the city, with shells dropping around
us pretty- often and livening us up. I
think there were upwards of 5,000
troops in the city on Monday, and if
the rebels had opened on us, we would
have suffered severely. On Tuesday,
A. M., about 8 o'clock, we crossed the
river; being the last to cross, covering
the retreat of the whole' army. We
bivouacked on this side ()film river un
til Wednesday, A. M., when we return
ed to this our old camp, and here we
arc on the top of a bill exposed to the
wind from all quarters. The wood is
nearly all cut off for miles around us,
and we have to lend two or three miles
for wood to cook with and keep warm.
We are having a very severe snap of
cold weather now, and arc suffering iu
proportion.
To-day our corps, under command
of Gen. Meade was reviewed by Gen.
Burnside and made a very fine ap
pearance. About 15,000 men were
under arms. Our little division of
Regulars only numbers about 3,000
men, but they are good and in fine
condition, or Gen. Burnside would not
have chosen us to cover the evacua
tion of Fredericksburg.
We have been very quiet since re
turning to this camp, and we do not
anticipate any immediate movement.
It would astonish some of you livers
in houses to be set down in our midst,
and see how we shift to keep out the
weather. I can't tell you how, for it
would take too much time of yours
and space of mine, but you should see
to appreciate.
With kind regards to you and all
my friends in IL, I must close.
Truly, yours,
