ST. LOUIS, March 19. – Telegrams from Gen. Curtis state that
his loss in killed and wounded at the battle of Pea Ridge was about 1400. The enemy retreated entirely south of the Boston
Mountains. There are no more troops in
Northern Arkansas, except marauders and Pike’s Indians, who will kill and
plunder from all indiscriminately.
