British steamer Trent, brought her to and re

their Secretaries, Is now about fifty six years OF
age. Consequently-as Jack Bunsby would say
-he was once younger than he is now. Though
every inch a sailor, and not often given TO the
melting mood, the blind god once succeeded In
sending one of bis shafts clear through his
rough sou'-wester, which found lodgment 10
his honest heart. The bow from which the
shaft was sped hung in the eyes of fair girl,
and straightway the jolly tar fell head over
ears in love. Represented bis suit with yixor.
The girl was "a lass who loved sailor"--and

considerably cut up BY being cut out, refused to

until he refused hia consent to bis daughters
marriage with the bold Charlie Wilkes, and
insisted on her giving her hand TO young Siidell,
which, after many proses!ations and the custo-

ESCAPE OF SOUTHERN MEN FROM LOUISVILLE. Be
tween four and five hundred men came down to Mem.
phs, on Thursday last, from Kentucky They are a
portion of the old State Guard of that State AMI
their purpose is to join Gen. Buckner Munfordsye
each man bringing gun with him, which he had care
fully concealed until the time of departure The enemy
got wind of their hegra South aud tried to cut them
off, bat without avail The celerty of their movements
doubtless saved them, they advanced in twenyour
hours tfytoMr miles, travelling night and day. The
fair and patriotic ladies of Kentucky our informant saws
greeted them with enthusiasm all along the line down
and upon their generous and bountifa offerings the gal
liant little band Of exes forced to depend for their
sustenance. They arrived safely at Gen. Buckner's
camp on Tuesday last
We learn further that the number of Federal troops
between Eizabethtown and Louisville is generally est%
mated at from ten to twelve thousand certainly not
more. Some few of them (mestly Germans) were well
drilled aid equipped, bat the greater number were
ragged recruits, totally without discipline
Gen, Buckner's force at MunfordsyilIe and Bowling
Green IS supposed to be between twelve and fifteen
thousand, and is rapidly increasing.
Oar informant says that the whole State of Kentuelv
IS in blaze OF excitement and the Staterchts men are
rushing to the defence of the South from every quarter
lhs statement is corroborated by our intelligence from
other sources and leads u.s. more than anything else to
hope for the speedy redemption of this downroddeu
people from the iron rule Of tyranny.
