FROM GEN. CURTIS'S ARMY
A letter to the Republican, dated Helena,
August 14th, says : -The land, forces here
now, exclusive of titeele'a Division, at Claren
don, caunot be lees than 80,000. The forces
which Gen. Curtis led thiough his hamming
campaign are recuperated to a great degree.
That a movement of his army will soon take
place seems to be tbe general opinion.
"The fact that about twenty-five steamers
are here, and retained in government employ,
indicates a move down the river.
"(tenors' Curtis has retured, and his return
has increased the expectation of active move
ments soon.
"There are some wealthy rebel property hol
ders about Helena, not least of whom is Gen
eral Gideon Pillow. He owned three planta
tions in the vicinity, all of which, including
the chattels, have been confiscated. He at
tempted to avoid the law by making sham
sales, but it did not avail:.
" Several years ago, a northern man, named
H. P. Coolidge, went to Helena, comparatively
poor. When te rebellion broke out his pro
perty was estimated at one million of dollars.
The rebels burnt 2,000 bales of cotton for him,
and now he loses by confiscation 800 negroes.
The fi ne mansion of Gen. Hindm an is now oc
cupied as headquarters by Gen. Curtis. The
building, however, is covered with more mort
gages titan Hindma n ever could pay.
The sickness on the fleet is exceeding great.
On the Cincinnati ninety-three were on the sick
list, and take the fleet through, half their crews
down. Should this matter not mend, the gun
boats will not be able to co-operate very ener
getically with the land forces in the contain
plated movement upon Vicksburg . . In the
c.mps back of the bluffs much sickness pre
vails, which is attributed to the us e of the
spring water there abounding, said to be`lin
pregnated with copperas."

I=
Lieutenant Rded, of the ram Arkansas, has
furnished the Jackson dfuaissippian•tsefollowing
particulars of tun destruction or that craft.
The Arkansas left Vicksburg ou Sunday
morning. Lon, at 2 o'clock, for Baten Rouge.
When fifteen miles this die of that place, het
starboard engine broke down. . Repairs were
immediately commenced. At 4 o'clock Gen.
Breckiniidge opened upon the town. The Ar
kansas steamed five mites below Baton Rouge,
where she cleared for action. - At this point
the starboard engine again gave out, and sh.
drifted ashore on the Arkansas side, in sight ot
Baton Rouge. The crew were engaged all
nigbt in repairing, but on trial the engines
gave out entirely. Next morns *at 8 o'clock
the look out reported the Federal fleet coming
up. The Arkonses was mowed head down
stream, ready for. action.
At 9 o'clock the gunboat Essex came np and
opened fire. The Arkansas' engineer reported
the engine ready—steam was put on; and she
started down the river.and went 800 yards in
the direction of the Essex, when her larboard
engine suddenly stopped. The Essex at that
time was, pouring a hot fire into her. The Ar
kansas opened also, but only with her stern
gun. When the Essex was within 400 yards
of the Arkansas the latter's crew were order
ed ashore, the Essex continuing to flue upon
the deserted vessel. After deserting her the
torch was applied, and soon communicated to
the magazine, and she exploded. Lieut. Ste
phens was in command of the rebel ram, and
says,: but for the misfortune to- her engines,
which were built in Memphis, the Yankees
would have been driven from New Orleans in a
few days. .
A ECOEVEING ARTIOLE PROM THE RIOEXOND EX-
AMOR ON JEFF. DAVIS' ADIdINDTBATION.
The following article we cut from a copy of
the Richmond Examiner received yesterday :
'•One of the most important duties that will
devolve upon Congress at its approaching ses
sion will be to recruit the strength of our arm
ies. ,The executive branch of the government
'has depleted our armies and jeopardised onr
contest by an easy toleration of desertion and
straggling, which have reduced our military
force to an alarming extent. It has trifled
with the cause of the country'; it has ignored
the death penalty in our armies; it has neg
lected its discipline, winked at capital crimes,
emasculated the war, preached sickly send•
mentalism, and taught the country ,the ads
fortune of being saddled with a -government
that takes a monstrous and unnatural pride in
defying public sentiment, In treating the coun
sels of the people with insolence, and in snub
bing advice with the air of autocracy.
repair -as-beetle
can the mischief done the public service by •
weak and• impracticable executivi; to look to
the reduction of our forces in the field ; tilt
decay of military discipline ; the demoralize
lion of our armies, and the jeopardy in which
our cause has been put by a long coarse of
trifling conduct, childish pride of opinion, un
worthy obstinacy, official obtuseness, conceit,
defiance of public opinion, imperiousness and
despotic affectation on the part of those en
trusted with the execution of the war.
If our armies had been kept whole, if deem ,
Lions had been punished with the exemplary
sentence of death, and if the great virtue of
military discipline had not been abused by the
most shameful excesses, there would be no need
now of exhortations of Oungress to strengthen
our armies and to increase their numbers by
new acts of legislation.
The fact is, that Congress and the Isgisla
tures of the different litates have exhausted
themselves in ri - spldt of unimpeachable zeal
and devotion to retain& our armies ; the re
commendation of the Executive to raise troops
uy conscription was responded to instantly ; in
Virginia alone the militia have been called out
four or five times, and in other States the army
has been swollen beyond the quota required
limn them by troops raised for local service,
partizan warfare and special exigencies. Nut
withstanding this ready end active disposition
on the part of tue Confederate Congress and th.
Mate Legislatures, to keep up the stre.igth of
.ur armies, and the recent levies made under
tueir auth..rity, the numbers of our troops in
the field have decreased through the neglect of
discipline, the-indifference of our military com
manders, and the action of the Executive
branch of the Government, which, so far from
nurturing our armies and encouraging the mar
dal spirit of the country, has demoralized
them, relaxed the ordinary - rules of discipline,
and ampened the ardor of oar troops by de
lay, inaction and uncertainty of purpose.-
11 will be for Congress to adopt some new
measure to recruit the numerical strength of
our army, and -to act in the important and vital
exigency that is upon us with decision and
vigor. We see no alternative but to enlarge
the termi of the Conscription law—to extend
its operations' to persons between the ages of
eighteen and forty-five or fifty, instead of mak
ing the latter term thirty-five, as at first remora-,
mended by the President. This necessity will
be unwelcome ; it may be that it will involve a
serious reduction in the producing power of the
country and its capacity to sustain the armies
raised for its defence. But the necessity, its in
convenience' and its dangers, will have been
forced upon the country by the acts of a weak,
opinionated and headstrong Executive. It will
be useless for Congress to indulge in recrimina
tions on the subject; the public will under
stand and appreciate the necessity in which it
acts; and the legislative body of the nation
will consult the highest inculcations of duty in
considering the paramount an vital necessity
of the country in preference tdiFvery other in
terest or concern.
It is in this sense that Congress will be call
ed upon to extend the provisions of the Con
scription law, and to do it withoat weak hesi
tation, without attention to selfish clamor,
without punctilio, in the spirit of plain, urgent
and patriotic duty. We want more troops.
If the issue of this contest is more valuable
then any other interest in the country, we
must have them at any cost. While the North
is swelling its armies ours are being reduced by
desertion 'and straggling; these offences are
rapidly increasing through the shameful toler
ation of them by the Commander in-chief of
our' armies and his obsequious subalterns.—
this inverse proportion in the strength of the
Northern and Southern armies, would, if un
interrupted, soon bring the contest W. a close.
Congress must act with promptness and deci
sion ; the ravages and gays in armies must
be supplied with new trot's. lilt is miming,
to secure the fortunes of this contest, to make
new drafts on our people they can 'endure It ;
for what is there of inconvenience, privation,
or hardships that is not preferable to the hor
rors of subjugation.
While our army suffers from the flux of de
serters and stragglers,
the North is redoubling'
its exertions to crush us. If these exertions
are not to be encountered by any newArdoili
the administration of President Davis, it they
are at to be checked by any aggressive move
meal, any new essay of policy, or any d. par
lure from the habits of the back track,loon
grass will be the only power the country -can
look to to meet the growing and . thrtuidable
preparations of the North. It will do so in the
most practical and useful way by enlarging the
conscription law to the utmost limits, antic put
dug, without delay, the whole available-mili
tary force of the South in the field
From the editorial article of the Dispatch we
take the following extract :
We have a painful recollection of Manassas,
of the period of listlessness and Inaction which
followed that great triumph. and of the almost
fatal consequences to which it led.
We cannot believe that our authorities will
permit a repetition of the torper which then
invaded them, when they reflect upon the dis
asters of the last winter. A victory unimprov
ed, is, in almost all cases, equal to a signal
defeat.. In some casts it is even worse. In all,
it inevitably leads to disaster by a rule which
is always' working, and never knows rest for a
moment. Let us not, for God's sake and for
our own,
fall into the error of last year. Six
months afforded the enemy the ample time to
recover from the demoralizing effects of Manas
sas. In six months from that battle he had on
foot 700,000 men and an innumerable fleet. In
less than that, if he is now suffered to go on
recruiting without interruption, he will be more
formidable than he ever has been.
Already the same cry begins to be ratted that
we heard repeated so often last year. We hear
continually of intervention as we heard then.
Political arithmeticians are again at work to
sum up the indebtedness of the North, and
prove the Yankees utterly bankrupt. Short
sighted mortals persuade themselves now, as
they did then, that they can get no more re
cruits. All this is fallacious. If trusted too
far, it will become ruinously mischevious.—
There is no probability of any intervention, so
far as we can see. The Yankee Government
will be enabled to exact what sums-they want,
so long as the war continues to be as popular
as it is, for the Yankee nation knows that sep
aration from the South is ruin to them. The
800,000 asked for by Lincoln, will be raised
before our newspapers shall have done-discus
sing the possibility of raising them. Our hopes
lie in the stout hearts and ready hands of our
young men. These are the only hopes that
have never failed us, and they are the only
ones in which we ought ever to confide. Ali
others are fallacious, and lead only to disaster.
LANE FROM NEW ORLEANS

the--following intereating items of Informa

Tatiti . J'MV:CVVi - Oeaont-rilatair
AILOat TE COTTON FAOTOUS.
From the moment that Ganglia Butler's
Order No 66 became known yesterday, mulct.
lug some one hundred and ninety individuals,
corporations and mercantile firms in the snug
tittle sum of three hundred and forty odd
thousand dolts's, for the purpose of providing
employment and food fur the stiffening poor of
Lois city, the flags of Carondolet street became
the scene of unwonted action.
For the first time those many months, the
habitue's of la Grand Rua were awakened from
their ancient, snake like legarthy. Sleek old
gentleman, whose stomachs are extended with
turtle, and who sport ivory headed canes and
wear on their noses two eyed glasses rimmed
with gold, came out of their umbrageous
seclusions from Prytania street, Coliseum
Place, and other rural portions of the Garden
District, to condole witu each other upon the
now once more animated flags.
At au early hour yesterday morning, knots
of these aldermauic looking gentry, with white
vests and stiffened shirt colors, had collected
in the vicinity of Col. Baler's Coiner, for the
purpose of discussing the merits of die order—
of that order No. bb, which was destined to
disturb the equilibrium of many a cash balance
and to cause unwilling fingers to diva into tne
depth or plethortic vockets long undisturbed
uy the prying digits of their uoctous owners.
It was refreshing to Ountemplata the miaow
tul Visages of this inners' crowd. Sunni of
them had been taxed hundreds, and some to the
tune Ot thOtthands, but alt alike bore the Solemn
aspects of unresisting muttons /Id silently to
slaughter. They had mode their money easy,
to be sure, but parting with it was like pulling
teeth. Some to these men ate worth IS million
or so • a few, perhaps , as lance as ten willluus4,
in real estate, stocks, 'bunds and ex e et.tatious
and others again are known as poor raw, toler
ably will to do, worth only hum three to five
hundred thousand dollars a piece.
tor these to be taxed as high as a hundred
dollars out of the little saving which they had
laid up, by means of two and a half per cent.
fur advancing ou cotton °too, and two and a
half per cent. commissions, and yet other per
°outages for brokerage and stealage ' seemed
rather hard, at least to them. No woods coat
they growled. Jacob Baker's last growl at the
latest. hit of the Della was as nothing in depth
and intensity to that which welled up from the
little cavernous offices and rolled along the
great mart of Carondelet street, on the occa
sion to which - we refer.
But, gentlemen, lamentations won't do. ,The
poor mug t be employed and fed, and you tituot
disgorge. It will never do to be said that while
ou lay back in your cushioned divans, tasting
turtle and sipping the wine cup, dressed in fine
linen and rolling in lordly cartiages, that gaunt
hunger stalk in the once busy streets and pover
ty flouted its rags under your aristocratic noses
for the want of the privilege to work I Launch
out, then, the needful, you favored ones of the
higher walksi of trade, and let the 'boor have
work.
This slight phlebotomizing of your patriotic
