Col. Hindman’s company of Arkansas volunteers, six hundred in number, with Col. Hindman in command, arrived in this city on the Morrison on Sunday. They will remain here until the whole regiment is collected together, when they will proceed to Virginia. The Arkansas volunteers have a splendid silk flag, presented by President Davis’ Lady. The volunteers are a fine looking spirited body of men, and where they are called to action they will make their mark.
