Memphis Daily Appeal, CS 16 July, 1862
Latest from White River.

The Memphis Bulletin of the 13th gives a statement of affairs on the White river, in Arkansas, which shows-notwithstanding the Federal origin of the account-that our friends are active west of the Mississippi. That paper says:
***

The Era brings intelligence of a sharp skirmish which took place on Sunday last at Grand Prairie, about four miles back of Aberdeen.

A scouting party of about one hundred and seventy-five men, from the 8th and 24th Indiana regiments, under command of Col. Spisely, of the 24th regiment, were attacked by a force of about four hundred rebel cavalry under Capt Wheat.

A sharp fight ensued for some time until the rebels drew off, having lost 84 men killed and wounded and taken prisoners, among them one lieutenant, who, with the rest of the wounded and prisoners, was brought upon the Golden Era.

The Federal loss was one killed, two seriously wounded and several slightly. The names of these, so far as they can be ascertained, will be published in our issue of to-morrow morning.
