BATESVILLE, ARK., March 22, 1864.

SIR: I have the honor to make the following report: In obedience to your letter of instructions bearing date March 15, 1864, I divided my command immediately after crossing White River and sent 100 men, under command of Captain Collier, directing him to move by way of Fair View Point, on Little Red River, which order he executed. I moved with the other 100 down White River; went into Camp Livingston, in Oil Trough Bottom, 8 miles west of Jacksonport. From this point, on the morning of the 17th instant, I moved south to Grand Glaize, in White County, a distance of 12 miles; from Grand Glaize I moved southwest in the direction of West Point. Seven miles from Grand Glaize, at one William Plant's, I captured a mail from the Southern army. The letters were dated March 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, and were written at Camp Sumpter, 9 miles from Little Red River. No official information, however, of importance would be obtained, and they being more of a matrimonial character then otherwise, I returned them to Mr. Plant,
