The pursuit lasted for twenty miles, and was | not abandoned until four o'clock P. M., when | it became useless and impossible for it to be | continued longer. The horses were worn out, having had no forage for four days and hav- | ing marched 230 miles since October 28, and 500 with the present week. No losses were sustained by our side. Four Indians are known to have been ‘killed. How many more is not ascertained, but at | least twenty must have been slain. The bloody state of ‘the field attests that the In- | dians dragged off rapidly a number of their | wounded comrades. Colonel» Redmond, Price’s battalion, Eighth cavalry, and Major ©. E. Compton’s command (Sixth cavalry) were at remote supporting distances, left and rear, as also was General Davidson, with the | Tenth cavalry. Captain C. D.

Sensational Stories from Washington Denied — Profound Peace and no Arrests. Litrtz Rook, Ark., Nov. 16, 1874, The despatches from Washington reporting large assemblages of the adherents of Smith and hun- dreds of arrests by Garland are not true.

No action has been taken on the proclamation of Smith, received by the President Saturday.

Telegrams from republicans received here to- day irom various parts of Arkansas represent that Smith’s adherents continue arming and show | determination to maintain their position. Smith’s government will be organized either at Helena or Pine Bluff, where the republican element largely preponderates. The Gariand government has made at least a hundred arrests thus clud. ing the editors of the Republican newspaper, on a charge of treason to the State. THE ELRCTION of members of the Legislature under the Garland government, at woich bo republicans voted, took place October 13, and the election under the Smith government, in accordance with the old consti- tution, at Which no democrats voted, took place early in November. ‘The President and Attorney General had a con- ference to-day on Arkansas affairs, SENSATIONAL ACCOUNTS, The following despatch was received here to- night by Senator Dorsey irom oe aes Cooper, Secretary or the Republican State Central Com- mittee OF Arkansas :— Lrrrix Roox, Ark., Nov. 16, 1874.
