A RAT TALE.-A small, half Scotch, half English
terrier, weighing fifteen pounds fox color, and seri.
ously inclined, which belonged TO the editor Of the
Savannah Republican, while in the Office Of a cotton
merchant, smet rat, and soon forced the "yarmint
from his hiding place. In desperate haste to avoid
bite, the rat made for the first opening, which was
the office window (through which goods are hosted)
looking over the bluff, four stories high or about
sixty ieet rom the ground. The rat made the leap,
and after him went the terrier needless of the conse
quences. They both reached the ground side by side
at the same instant having just missed aighting
big negro's Uranium. Ere the rat could recover
from the effects of the jump, he felt himself In the
jaws OF the terrier with his spinal bones considerably
dslocated. The terrier did not at all hurt by
such tremendous leap, and be is now more assduo1s
than ever 10 his pursuit Of rat tails.

WASHINGTON, April 8, 1858.

FROM FoRr KEARNY.-Mr Alexander Constant
arrived in this city yesterday morning, direct from
Fort kearny which place he left on the Both nltmo.
He brings no news of importance. Nothing later
from the army in Utah had been received there at the
time of his leaving than received here several days
ago. Brigham Young had notified COL Johnston to
leave the Territory by the 10th of March, and in case
of his refusing to comply with the order. that the
Saints would assemble en- masse, and annihilate him
and his little band of soldiers. Brigham very mag
unanimously offered him provisions and other necessa-
ries that he might possibly be in need OF to last him
to the States
Mr.. Constant met one hundred and sxtythree
wagons freighted with Government supplies for Col
Johnston, on the lst instant the Little Blue. The
train was accompanied by four full companies of
troops.
The Indians are all peaeeable at this time but as
soon as there grass sufficient for their ponies to
snbsist upon, forays from the different tribes will un.
doubtedly be made into the country of their neigh
bors for the purpose of stealing horses. The snow
was two feet deep at the Fort during the winter and
remained on the ground about six weeks.

FRIDAY MORNING, APRIL le, 1858.
Talk on 'chasee--Cotton.


We give below Communication on the intermin-
able question Of the extent of the cotton crop. Our
correspondent makes good show. There is no dis
putting the fact that Red Yazoo and Arkansas rivers
have been in good navigation nearly the entire
son-much more so than for many years past. There
is very little cotton the banks Of those rivers held
for higher prices The greatest quantity to come to
market is from Memphis, ycksburg and in the vcin.
ity Of Natcbez 1t is reported that there are between
forty and aity thousand bales in and around Mem
phis- This quantity may be there, and it may not.
The talk is, there is probability Of buyers and
sellers coming to terms for the present, unless there
are different adyices from the other side In the
meantime, we concede to our correspondent " veri-
tas" hearing, and would extend our remarks II we
had room:

ing facts TO the public There continued ysry material
Increase in receipts recently which suppose
they had under-rstinated the crop Of 1857.

HIGH WATER IN BAYOU LAFoURoHE. The As
sumption Pioneer, of Saturday last, says:
Our bayou has risen to such height that from 6
to inches more rise would prove destructive to
many places of our levees, which are at present put
to such test as has not occurred for many years
since. Fortunately the timely and attentive over.
hauling and repairing of the levees in our parish
have till now prevented crevasse.
We learn that break took place at Col. Braggis
in Lafourche parish, but has been stopped without
doing any damage.
p S. Since last night the Lafourche has been
receding. Early this morning we hear of crevasse
at the lower line of our parish in front of the planta-
tion of F. A. Tete, E-q. Although large force is
employed to stop it, the water is still rushing in at
furious rate. hore in our next.
