Akdeew Joiixson. WASiiiNOToir, Feb. 2, 1860. IlKADqUARTEKS MlIJTARY DIVISION :i V ' OF THE Mississim, St. Louis, Mo., Dec. 22, 1805. General J. A: ItaKlitu, Chief of Staff. Waslr ington. D. C. UENEJiAi.: i nave just returnca irom a partial inspection of t)io Department of Ar kansas. It was my parpose to liave extend ed my visit Up to Fort Smith, but the Ar kaatas river was too low, and I limited it to Little Bock. The route usually traveled remains substantially as it was during the war, by way of Jute river to Duval's BlntT, and thence forty-eight miles of Railroad to Little Jlock. Tlio Arkansas river is at all seasons (00 precarious to be relied on, but on the White river, lying in the allincon of the Missis sippi, retains at all seasons of the year,, a depth of Trater of three and a lialf feets far up as Duval's Bluff. The railroad hence . to Little Rock is in good enough condition ior all present purposes, and has been re Btoretl to the possession of the company who built it, and is operated to the satisfaction of Ueneral itcynolus and las chief quarter' master. Colonel Noble. It.would contribute ranch to our military conveniences, as well as to the general in terests of the Mate of Arkansas, if , the rail road could be linishcd to Memphis. I saw N. C. Brinkley, of Memphis president of the railroad company, who Bcemed very anxious to finish it, liut said the company had lost so much by the i war that unless he could receive help from the Government, he icarcd he could not undertake it, I no road was once in operation from Memphis to Madison, on the St, Francis river, with a line bridge completed over thai stream, and at the time the federal army occupied .Memphis, in 180, he had a thousand tons of railroad iron on hand, Tua'dy to Ixs applied on the unfinished section between Madison and Duvall's JiluII, but thin iron was taken by us and carried away to Columbus, Ky.j and used in repairs on the Mobile and Ohio railroad, then in our military poHscssion from Columbus to Corinth. U10 costly bridge over the St. rrancis was burned by tlio rebel General Jlindman. ' Mr. Brinkley agreed, if wi could help him, to grade the road from Madison to, DdvaM'a Bluff, and to cut in the woods along the line the necessary number of ties ; ho would un dertake to purchase oa credit the necessary necessary to make a continuous railroad frem Mcinj)lus to Little Rock. General Reynolds has now at Helena three colored regiments, at Pine BluiTone, . and at Little Rock another. He could easily apiily the labor of two or more of mesa rejruncnis u 111c grauing 01 uie roaa and getting out the tics, and Mr. Brinkley agrees to pay for this labor in land, belong ing to the company, lying adjacent to the road. General Reynolds, commanding tho department, nnd Sprague, commissioner of freed men in Arkansas, approve heartily of tins plan, and I think wo aroinilucieiitly in terested in this road to encourage it by all means. Accordingly Iask that unlctaitbc proposed to muster out the colored regiments, that the "War Department "will sanction the plan so far as to authoriio General Reynolds to order the execution of the work during tho present winter and spring months. I found all the troops in Arkansas in good condition and well commanded, General Reynolds being admirably qualified and adapted to his command. General Sprague has also the respect of the civil authorities. The negroes in Arkansas can all find pro fitable and lucrative employment, and are protected in all their rights and property by tho, civil authorities.. I met no ono citizen or soldier who questioned or doubted that their freedom was as well assured in Arkan sas as in Ohio. Gov. Murphy told mo that necroes could acquire title to real estate or any kind of property, ana that the courts, both rederal nnd State, could and would protect hem. There was an universal expression of confi dence ia thc present condition of affairs, ex ccpt on tliCpart Of some former rebels, who thought the present test oath proscribed for them too stringent and severe. A convention of them convened, I know not how, was in session at Little Rock when I was there.' A committee from it waited on General Reynolds and myself, inviting us to attend. We agreed to go, provided no debate or procccdinga were in progress dur ing our visit. On our entrance to the hall, the President addressed us in language as loval and earnest as jxiwible, and asked our advice. I responded, and gave them the best advice I lcncw how, amounting tob stantially as follows : That political matters, since the conclusion of hostilities, had progressed and were still progressing as fast as they could expect. That I doubted if any action on their lart, as a convention of the State, would be regard ed as the act of Arkansas, but that any respectful representation of facta from them, in their individual capacities, in tlio nature of n petition to General Reynolds, to Presi dent Johnson, or the national Congress, would doubtless receive every possible con sideration. At the same lime I called their attention tiVtlio nnvprtv nf their conntn'. and how nincli ttollcr it would bo for them to irive their personal attention each o their own nJTairs, father than bother: themselves twith general matters of jiqlitics. After leaving Little Rock I lcarnwl that tho convention had adjourned, no that I hope things there will remain as quiet as before. 1 Indeed, so far as my observation goes, there is perfect satisfaction eltby all classes of the people except on tlio part of a very few who. arc looking to future combinations, involving the local and unimportant State affairs. 1 found cvcry where in tho South a largo number of our officer and soldiers looking out for employment and I doubt not that- during thb next year all the land which is cleared will be under cultivation, a large part of it under the direction of energetic young men, and that all branches of business in Arkiinsas will be stimulated by tho pres ence of a class of men which has not hereto fore'resided in that State. Single individuals now .travel unarmed from one part of the State to another, and (icn. -Revnolds is rarely called upon to n fiord military protection to any one, white or black.

To those .who are ex pecting rents for property seized and used by Federal authority in the Southern States, tho following abstract of a decision given by the Quartermaster General, and approved by the Secretary of ar, may not be unin teresting: No rents will be paid for buildinirs used by the Government in any city, cap- turea uy icacrai troops, where the place was not surrendered, but was occupied by reason of its evacuation by the enemy. All prop erty in such cities will be coasidercd as a prize of war, and the Quartermaster General declines to pay rent for buildings in such cities, which Jiavc been occupied py sick or wounded soldiers of the captured army. Alter the active operations of war are over, and peace has been restored to the dis trict, the Government' will doubtless triveun the property, which it docs not confiscate. ana pay rent irom me time ol restoration - - ..... . .. of peace and civil authority. Claims for the destruction of property, fences, crops, &c, in hostile places, by Federal troops. arc placed on the same footinc as claims for rent .of buildings in captured towns. AH these will be left for the consideration of Congress, to bo finally disposed of under such general legislation as may be enacted. The appropriations for tho Quartermaster ueneral s Jjcnartmcnt are said to be too lim ited to provide for such claims, and it will be useless lor persons to make application for their payment. Cohctcss is tho only source from which such payment can be ol- laineu. This decision, as we understand, applies to ail such properly, whether belonging to loyal or disloyal parties.

Speech, of IO nls A'npolcon. New York. Teb. 7. The following is a portion of Napoleon's speech to the Corps Legislatif.'Jan. 2Jd: As in preceding years, I will examine with you the principal questions which interest our coun try abroad. Peace seems assured everywhere, for everywhere the means aro sought for amicably settling difficulties, in place of ending them with sword and musket The meetini? of Enirlish and French fleets in the same ports has shown that the relations formed on tho field of battle have not been weakened. .Thcy have only cemented tho agreement of the two countries. In regard t giving any intervention it is best to cpntinuo to obscrvo a policy of neutrality, which, without preventing tho United States at the time irom being displeased or dissatisfied, leaves us ne vertheless, strangers to tho question in which wo are centered, though not directly engaged. Italy, recognized by almost all tho powers of Europe, has strengthened its unity by inaugurat ing its capital in the center of tho Peninsula. Wo count upon tho scrupulous execution of the trial of the 15th September upon tho indispcnsablo maintenance of the power of tho Holy Father. As I expressed the hope last year, that our ex pedition to Mexico was Approaching its termina tion, I am coming to on understanding with Max imilian to fix tho timo for the rccal of our troopf, without compromising French interests, which wo have been defending. North America, issuing victoriously from a for midable strugglo, has re-established tho Union and has proclaimed the abolition of slavery, France, which forgets no noble page of her his tory, offers up her sincere wishes for tho prosperity of tho great American Republic, and for tho main tenance of tho amicable relations which have at ways existed between the two governments. The excitement produced in tho United States by the presence of our troops in Mexico, 'will be pacified by tho frankness of our declaration. Th American people will comprehend that our expe- ditioivto which wo invited them, was not opposed to their interests. Fire nt Jollct, Illinois. Cnic.iao, Feb. 7.
