ar papers, have been shipped to the North, yet, according to their own reports, some five thousand runaways yet remain within the Federal lines at Helena. Most of the officers, and many of the privates, have supplied themselves with servants of both sexes. Of the condition of affairs in the vicinity of Helena a gentleman recently from that point gives the Memphis (Federal) Bulletin a gloomy account. It is stated that the negroes, manufacture all sorts of lies about having worked at Fort Pillow, and thus obtain passes to go North. These remain upon their master's farms as long as they can get anything to eat, and instead of working they set themselves to stealing horses, mules, and cows; in fact, all sorts of stock are taken, and disposed of by them at astonishingly low prices. The overseers on the plantations have gone off, and the negroes are masters of the situation. This is the Northern coloring of affairs in that portion of Arkansas under control of the Federal army,

Howe, of the 1st Missouri regiment, informs us that on the 2d instant two regiments, one from Kentucky and the other from Indiana, rebelled at Rienzi, Miss, and started South with their arms. Four regiments of Wisconsin troops were sent to intercept them, when a fight ensued, lasting from Saturday morning until night. The Kentuckians and Indianians drove the Wisconsian regiments six miles in the direction of Corinth. At sundown the Federals were reinforced by two Illinois regiments, who came up in the rear of the rebels and compelled them to surrender. They were arrested and sent to Chicago. An eye witness who walked over the field says he counted 353 killed; and another, who spent more time, says he counted over 600 dead.--Jackson Mississippian, 25th. The reaction in New York.

ying off near the Louisiana shore, and it is also supposed that they have a land battery of two guns on shore near Mr. Burney's place. They kept up a vigorous bombardment for three hours, and averaged about one shell a minute. At first their aim was directed at our batteries, but afterwards they commenced throwing, their shells indiscriminately in every direction, nearly all falling short. Some came within a short distance of the city; some fell in the river, and some were seen to fall in DeSoto. Our batteries escaped injury, and nobody was hurt. Some old houses below the city were struck, but no serious damage done. The principal damage was the digging up of a patch of potatoes by the shells. A shell struck the residence of Mr. Victor F. Wilson, entering the northwest corner, and from thence to the cellar, where it exploded, tearing things to pieces generally, and coming out at the top of the building. We are informed that one of our citizens, a noncombatant, was wound

An officer from Sullivan's Island reports that one or more of the blockading fleet commenced shelling Fort Beauregard, Thursday evening, in retaliation, as is supposed, for the execution of Burger, which they could scarcely have failed to witness, as the prisoner was shot in an open space within sight of the fleet.
