We hare Irut little war news this week,
other than that in our telegraph columns.
All eyes are just now, and have been for
ten days past, in the diroction of Island
No. 10, where our Gun and Mortar
boats axe engaging the enemy, who are
strongly fortified, steady ana sausiac
tory progress has thus far been made,
and Commodore Focte feels confident of
being able to finally succeed in routing
the rebel force from this strong hold.
The reported capture of Yancy turns
out.tebe untrue.
; Death or Martin Stowell.
'. A correspondent of the St. Louis Dcm-
ocrat, writing from Ft. Henry, under
date of March 10, confirms the reported
death of Martin Stowell of this coun
ty. He says, speaking of the battle at
Paris, "We lost six men Sergeant Ma
jor .Martin Stowell, Sergeant D. H. Gea
ry; privates P. M. McGuire.J. J. War
ren and Dickison,"
' The same correspondent adds: "No
better or braver soldiers can be found in
the army than those from Nebraska.
They are men that have been inured to
trial and danger on the plains, and who
have suffered all the fatigues and priva
tions incident to western life."
Martin Stowell was a native of Warren
Mass:, where his wife and two children
are now sojourning. He has resided at
Peru in this county for four or five years
past, ne had some social characteris
tics which made him bitter enemies.
Yet all admitted him to have rather a
superior mind, bold, fearless aud un
finching in his course and advocacy of
anymeasure he espoused. He was strict
ly temperate, and an industrious, hard
working man, whose loyalty and bravery
were the .most iealous and daring. We
will guarantee that Martin Stowell fell
yvith his face lo the enemy and where the
battle raged fiercest. His bereaved fam
ily have the sympathies of this commu-
' ait jr. ; '
From the Nebraska First.
Just as going to press, we received a
lengthy letter from our valuable corres
pondent, "More Again," of the Nebraska
First, While it is a very interesting let
ter, it contains no news, and therefore
we leave it over until next week. The
Regiment on the 16th disembarked from
the steamer John Raine up the Tennes
see River, five miles distant from bavan
nah, at midnight, with three days ra
tions, which looks as though they were
going to. pitch into somebody.
. We have also an interesting letter
from Geo. Belden, of this place, which
we will publish next week.
Arrest on Charge or Treason.
. On Tuesday last, Deputy Sheriff R. F.
Barret, under process issued by Justice
C. W. Wheeler, of this place, arrested
Robt. Thompsok, on a charge of treason
against the United States. An examina
tion took place yesterday O. B. Hewett
.'for the prosecution, and E. W. Thomas
for the defense. The only point in law
attempted by the defense was, that of
jurisdiction.
Justice Wheeler held him to appear in
the U. S. District Court of Missouri,
where the offence was committed.
It was proven by Thompson's own con
fession, since his return, that he left this
place last fall, and joined with a number
t)f persons of Atchison county, Missouri,
who went into Price's rebel army, where
he remained until within a day or two
before the. battle of Pea Ridge. He
claims to have served out the time for
'ViirT rio nl!tr ot-rl n-JtV Atn ,-c- in
.. ifce condition, was discharged, and imme-
tliately returned to this place.
He is a son of Capt. Thompson, Post
Master in this city. On the fact of his
being in this ricinity being known, quite
an excitement prevailed ; also a diversity
of opinion as to the mode cf his disposal.
The counsels of order loving citizens
rerailing, no attempt was made in the
llrection of personal violence, and he was
arrested as above stated. Respect for
Capt. "Thompson, who is a good loy.il man,
recently resigning the position of Capt.
of Company "C," First Nebraska Regi
ment, on account of ill health, and his
family, went very far :n appeasing the
public feeling. The Captain, in addition ,
is entitled to credit for the course pur
sued by him in some respects. He im
mediately had his son take the oath cf
allegiance, and afterwards reported him
to Gen. Lean, at St. Joseph, and also
to Gen. Hunter. It is but just to Capt.
Thompson, that these facts be made pub
ic. All, so far as we know, sympathize
with him in his struggle between pater
nal affection and duty to his country.
Th3 notorious character of young
Thompson is such, however, that the
community hereabouts are unanimous in
thp belief that he should be .severely
chastised ; and in addition, that an exam
ple should and must be made in regard
to thos3 who aid the rebellion being
waged to overturn the Government.
The people of this county are determined
that it shall not become an asylum or
retreat for rebels. They will, however,
first resort to authority, either civil or
military, as they have always done here
tofore. This has, in many instauces,
been done to such an extent, that the ex
ercise of a desire for law and order,
forbearance and lenity, on the part of our
citizens, has been construedby ignorant
and evil disposed persons, into tender
footedness, fear, and semi-sympathy with
traitors.
Young Thompson was heard to express
himself, when the steamer left our wharf
with the Nebraska Regiment, last fall
uttering the most fearful and obscene
oaths that he hoped the boat would blow
up and destroy the whole Regiment; and
that if he ever met his father on the
battle field, he would shoot him the first
man! He left in a few days and joined
the rebel, army, where he has been" ever
since, receiving neither pay nor clothing.
Under such circumstances perhaps even
a South Carolina rebel would leave and
go home, if he could get away. Loyalty
thus brought about, we have but precious
little faith in.
We mistake the public sentiment in
this region, both in Nebraska and Mis
souri, if they permit rebels, who have
been in arras against the Government, to
return at pleasure, and settle down again
quietly in a community they have dis
traded, and well nigh ruined, by their
treason at least until the war is ended,
or they have passed through some ordeal ;
or in some manner suffered the penalty
of violated law and allegiance. Some
individuals we know are in the rebel
army, whose security, on returning, we
would not go, under any circumstances.
Since the above was m type, Major
Prince, by telegraph, ordered Thompson
to be delivered to Gen. Halleck, at St
Louis. Sheriff Coleman will take him
down on the Omaha.

ond Third Iowa cavalry, encountered,
near Salem, Ark,, about 1,000 rebels,
under Cols. Coleman, Woodsides and

Col. Woodsides and about 100 killed
and wounded, and a considerable num
ber of prisoners.
Our loss 25 killed and wounded.

Baltimore,' March 18.
The steamer Commodore arrived
this morning, direct from Burnside's
expedition, and reports the capture of
Newberu, N. C, the defeat of the
enemy, and the capture of a large
quantity of artillery, after a hard
fought battle.
Oar loss at Newbernis about ninety
killed and 400 wounded. Our men
displaied great bravery.
A bearer of dispatches from Gen.
Burnside left immediately for Wash
ington. It is reported that we took 800
prisoners. Some reports mako our
loss 50 or GO killed and 250 or 300
wounded.
The fight took place on Friday last.
There are rumors that one ot our
Brigadier Generals was killed, but
they are considered unreliable.
New York, March 19.
The following are the details of the
battle at Newburn :
Commodore Rown was in command
of the fleet of gunboats and had sun
ken vessels, torpedos and other rebel
obstructions to overcome, and has
surmounted all with but slight damage
to only two of his fifteen vessels.
Two brigs or Darks and nineteen
schooners were sunk by the rebels,
above two rebel batteries. The latter
were silenced, the sunken vessels
passed and our flag hoisted over the
silenced batteries as our force passed
along. This was on Saturday after
noon.
Sunday morning a heavy fog set in
but soon lifted, when our boats passed
up safely ; silenced Fort Thompson,
with its two heavy columbiads, then
Fort Ellis, with two guns captured,
after a pretty brisk fight, and th
rebels fled in a pahic, and our flag
waved over another fort. Only one
fort was left to be engaged, and New-
burn would be at the mercy of our
troops. This was r ort Lane, but the
rebels hayin enough of the boats off
ered little if any resistance.
The rebels fired a number of scows
filled with rosiu and turpentine, in
tending to float them down and burn
our gunboats, but they got stuck and
burnt away furiously. The gunboats
then sheiled the depot and track, but
our troops bad them crossed, and a
white flag was hoisted. Our navy did
not lose a man.
The operations on land were briefly
as follows :
Our troops landed twelve miles be
low Newburn, Gen. Renas' brigade in
advance, the troop3 being so anxious
to land that nearly every regiment
jumped into the water and waded
ashole, and the whole division was
ashore in les3 than two hours. After
marching two mile3 they found a de
serted rebel camp, with fires burning
ana not breaklasts untasted. A breast
work was only passed, and the division
bivouacked for the nit ! early in
the morning skirmishing commenced.
General Foster's Brigade, compris
ing the Massachusetts Twenty-third,
Twenty-fourth, Twenty-fifth, and 26th
regiments, with the Tenth Connecticut
iD reserve, were in line and engaged
a 20 gun battery of the enemy on their
left flank, who showered grapes, can-
nister and shell upon them, also heavy
musketry from their infantry. The
becond Brigade, comprising the lst
Massachusetts. 51st New York, 51st
Pennsylvania and Ninth New Jersey,
engaged them on the right, and the
General of the Third Brigade took
position in front.
The first brigade bore the brunt of
the battle, and the Twenty fourth
Massachusetts soon had Major Steven-
and Lieutenant Horton wounded, and
the Twenty third Massachusetts lost
Lieutenant Cononel Merritt by a can
non ball. carrying away one side of his
body. The Tenth Connecticut were
ordered to support the Twenty-seventh
Massachusetts, which had suffered se
verely.
' The third brigade, together with the
second, executed a flank movement
and the order to charge beyonets was
given. A hand to hand fight ensued,
of a most desperate character, when
our troops drove the rebels out at th
point of the bayonet, charging them
out of sight. The rebels took posses
sion of a railroad train and flee from
Newbern, burning the bridges, the
Washington House, and some private
dwellings, and a number of whisky and
turpentine distilleries. Slaves had
commenced pillaging, but were stoped
A number of Unionists were found m
the city.
New York, March 19.
A special dispatch to the Tribune
states that further confirmation of pre
vious statements touching barbarities
practiced by the rebels upon the bodies
of Union soldiers burned upon the
battlefield of Bull Bun, have been re
ceived. The Lieutenant Colonel of
the Third New Jersey Regiment, the
first regiment of infantry to enter
Manassas, has in his possession a skull
which he found hangins over a table
in a rebel hut, inscribed with these
words, "Sic Semper Tyrannis" and
the rebel coat of arms. He satisffed
himself, also, that they used skulls for
ladles, and made pipes of the bones of
our slaughtered men.

A special to the tribune fro mC'ro
says a report is current this morning
from Sykeston, that Jeff. Thompson
was marching upon Cape Giradeau,
pressing men and horses into the con.
federate service. A skirmish has
taken place between the Union forces
and his advance. Three of the enemy
were killed and wounded. Reinforce

A gentlemen who has been a con
tractor at Memphisj left ihere on
Thursday and arrived here last even

disappeared from Memphis on the
second day after one .to which the
Legislature adjourned. Harris has
not been heard from since. He is
supposed to be at Corinth, Miss. The
Legislature had adjourned and gone,
no one knew where. The subject of
burning the city in case evacuation
was necessary, was still discussed.
There had been no impression of
Union citizens into Confederate ser
vice, except for guard duty, until
since the fall of Fort Donelson.

Hundreds are picked up in the streets

to the waters edge, leaving nothing
exposed except armaments, which
consist of nine Dahlgren guns, which
were built for the protection of Mem
phis. Hollin's ram had abo been sent up
to Island No. 10.
Union men are leaving Memphis in
great numbers, leaving property to
the Confederates, glad to escape with
their lives. Quarrels in the streets
were of frequent occurrance between
Union men and secessionists. Shots
were hourly exchanged. The rebels
are greatly in need of Iron, and have
offered $20,000 to any artisan that
will discover the process of making
malleable iron.
