From Fort Smith --- Maj. Bradford, from Fort Smith, passed this
place on Sunday the 11th inst. on his way to Kentucky. He informed us,
that on hearing of the late outrage committed by the Osages on a party
of licensed hunters, on Red River, Col. Arbuckle, commanding officer at
Fort Smith, dispatched Maj. Cummins to the Osage village, to ascertain
the cause of the aggression, and to demand that the authors of it should
be given up for punishment. The results of the mission was, that the
Osage Chiefs agreed to meet Col. Arbuckle at Fort Smith, some time this
month, to endeavor to settle the existing difficulties.
No retaliatory measures, it is presumed, will be adopted by Col.
Arbuckle, until he shall receive orders from the War Department.
We understand that Major Wm. Bradford has resigned his commission in the
Army.
Edward Duvall, Esq. who succeeds Col. Brearly, as Superintendent of
Indian Affairs for the Cherokee Nation on the Arkansas, has arrived at
the Post of Arkansas, with his family, and may be expected here in a few
days.

Distressing Calamity --- Last week we received the unpleasant
intelligence,
that an uncommonly high and sudden rise of White River, and some of its
tributary streams, took place during the early part of this month, which
has been particularly destructive and disastrous in its effects, on the
property of the citizens of that section of our Territory. The water, we
have
been informed, rose in some places from 10 to 15 feet higher than it has
ever been known before. A great number of plantations have been
inundated
and laid waste --- and the fences and in some instances the houses
entirely
swept off, together with corn, fodder, &c. &c. The number of cattle, and
stock of every description, which has been drowned, is almost
incredible,
in some instances persons owning large stocks, have lost nearly the
whole,
and few have escaped without some loss.
In this general calamity, we regret to learn that the flourishing little
town of
Batesville has not escaped. It has been nearly inundated. At the tavern
house of Charles Kelly, Esq. that water rose so as to cover the first
floor and
the family were obliged to retire to the second story for safety. At.
Col.
Boswell's store, the water was up to the top of his counter; and a small
warehouse in which he had a considerable quantity of peltries, &c. was
carried entirely off by the current, together with its contents. Col.
B's loss
we understand, is at the least calculation, from two to three thousand
dollars.

In consequence of the unusual high stage of White River, there was
no
crossing at either of the ferries in the neighborhood of Batesville,
during
near two weeks previous to the 15th inst. This accounts for the failure
of the mail from that quarter.

Road to Point Chicot - A subscription was started some weeks since,
to raise funds to defray the expense of marking and cutting out a bridle
road to the Fountain Prairie, which is about 25 miles west of Point
Chicot. About $100 were made up, principally by the citizens of this
place and vicinity, and Gen. Edmund Hogan was employed to perform the
work.
Gen. Hogan returned with his party, on Friday last, having, after a most
laborious and disagreeable trip of near four weeks, explored, and
marked, out a good bridle - way from this place to Fountain Prairie, the
distance of which he estimates at about 100 miles.
A road is now wanting from the Fountain Prairie to Mississippi, a
distance of only about 25 miles, to complete a direct communication
between this place and the seat of justice of Chicot County. This road
will presume will be immediate cut out by the citizens of that county;
and we hope it will not be long after it is completed, before we shall
have a mail route established on that road.
