They have taken Carroll station, Humbolit, Trenton, Kenton, and at last accounts were moving on Union City.

Wo have had not a little excitement here about the arrest of certain steamboats, alleged to have been en, gaged in contraband trading. It seems that the Speci gent of the Treasury Department at thie point, in ro- Sponse to Humorous apperi#, had granted to certain steamboats the privilege to take g oceries and provisions. on board and go down the Mississippi beyond Helena, and exchange them for cotton. The owners of the boas get permits for every articie, and, besides, @ revenue aid goes on every boat and s9ee' that’ not mach of any article 8 dealt out to any individual. The plin is a humane ono, and is designed for tho doubie object of relieving the suf- fering people and procuring cotton, It has wor! very well. The people along the river foel grs ! for the privilege of, trading, and do sil they can to faoititate i it seems, however, that Admiral Porter recoived an in- suiting message from an attache of a certain Board of Trade, and forthwith he deapatehed orders for the prrest of every boat found below Helena. Before bis ordur reached the trading fleet, however, Adams’ cavalry a gobbled up one of the bouts—the Lako Olty—near Loncordia, making prisoners of the erew and burning the boat. The people in the vicinity begged Adamg no? to interfere with tho bat the — eptreativw of even women wore disregarded, and the pevaliy was shortly after paid in the desirnetion by the gunboat’ Yenton of tho cxtire town of Concordia, together with ail the plantations near. Admiral Porter's order of arrest onmbraced some nine or ten steamboats; and, 23 most of them were owned here, there was no 3 little excitement ameng the owners. But before any v them had started for Cairo, wheve they were to de tried, im an admiralty court, Colonel Thomas H.
