Portrait If Jeff ThOmpson.

Capt Israel Gibbons, late of the edltorl- al corps of the New Orleans Crescent, Tn letter from Columbus, Kentucky, gives the following striking sketch of " the Great Missouri Swamp Fox"
 The great Missouri Swamp Fox, the Marion of this revolution you must know l mean Gen. M Jeff. Thompson-was in town to-day. cannot say he ls in town: like the Hibernians' flea, he seems to be here, there, and everywhere all at once. As he stepped leisurely over some barrels on the landing, would not have known him but for the inevitable white handled bowie knife, which he carries as no other man carries knife-stuck perpendicularly in his belt on the middle of his back; for he now wears 8 genteel regulation uniform, befitting general. His old slouch white hat and feather, bob-tailed coat, short pants and rough boots, which made him look more like cattle drover than 8 gen eral, and in which he did his earlier deeds of daring, have been laid aside, and now he has really military look. Let me pie ture this man to you.
 Imagine tall, lean, lank, wiry looking customer, at least six feet high and as slender as pair of tongs; thin, long head, with very long nose; what you would call hatchet face; thick yellow hair, combed back of his ears and bobbed off short, displaying a very long and thin neck; face healthy and ruddy, without vestige of beard or mustache; some 30 or 35 years of age; light blue eyes with friendly and benevolent expression; placid, well shap- ed mouth, with a half smile always play ing about the corners; little stoop-should- cred; slightly bandy legged from much rid ing on horseback; easy and graceful in his movements, as well on foot as in the sad dle; mild voiced and unassuming. in a crowd; full of rough soldier language in his talk to all; his manner and tone of voice the same to all, from maj general down to 8 negro; imagine such a person as this, say, and you will have a pretty cor rect idea of the famous Jeff ThompsOn.- He is about the last person you would take for Jeff Thompson, after forming your idea from what you had heard of him. He IS perpetuaIly full of fun, he never gets to talking without setting all around him to laughing; it is believed, indeed, that he fights chiefly for the fun of it. The camp is full of Jeff Thompson's jokes, or rather the odd dialogues he has had with friends and enemies.

TIE MUD HoIE CAIRo-DEcLIEE or Bus NESS. Erc.-The Cairo correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat has the following concerning the great mud hole of the West:
 Cairo, at the present writing, is looking very Cqro-ish. That is to say it is very dis agreeable and disconsolate generally. do not know whether 1t always rains in Caro, but as I never happened to bb here when the flood gates of Heaven were not opened upon it, and as, moreover, save when the proceedings are varied by hail storm, 1t has done little else but rain during the larger portion of my present sojomn, am forced to the conclusion that such is the case. But be this as it may, the Egyptian capital is just now in that peculiarly soft anu elegant condition, as to in every way render 1t worthy of the not very enviable reputation which l believe it unfortunately has secured to itself, over the length and breadth of Uncle Sam's dominions Caro Is not, however, except in regal:l to its mud, (which is unchangeabe) the Cario Of old times. when-as the grand centre of the steamboat trade of the West-its levees were throngeu WitH ilCoIhillS anu oi' SOillS steamers, and it's warehouses anu wharfboats were grooming with the accommodating pro ducts of North, South, East and Vest The palatial steamers of those days have given way to the not remarkably elegant looking gunboat, and big guns, gun carri- ages and army stores have taken the place of corn, wheat, hemp, iron, sugar and mo lasess. The three peninsuias of the triad of States now lying under my eyes are dotted with the tents of armed men, while but a little distance down the broad stream up which l steamed but few short months ago, from pIeasent sojourn in Dixie's Land, are now a hundred hostile cannon, with thousands of desperate and deluded men behind them, bidding defiance to any craft bearing alolt the flag under which they were born and reared,

MEssRs. MASON, SLIDELL ,AND MORE HEAD.-The Boston 'FIraveler," of the 4th inst, speaking of the prisoners in Fort Warren says:
 Slidell and Mason have icomfortable quarters, which they share with their sec retaries. As they have purchased various articles for their convenience, not provided by the government, and as the prospect IS that they are likely to remain; here some time, their money has been judlclouSly used.
 Mr. Mason who wore an air of non- chalance on Sunday, when taken to the fort, has apparently found tfe place less agreeable than he anticipated Perhaps the climate does not agree wit; him, or 1t may be that he means to be exclusive, but 1t is remarked among the prisoners that he keeps himself very close to his room. He appears sad and not in very good humor. On the other hand Slidell is tightening up, and is more cheerful. He ventured out of doors in the storm yesterday, but he is of northern birth, and thus the climate may not effect him so much as others.

 Another Fight with Opothleyholo-Kill-
 ed and Wounded of the Enemy near
 5o0-our Loss Twenty Killed-Sixty
 wounded-Only B Seriously. - We learn from Maj. Clark, of Texas, direct from the camp of Col. Cooper, that battle took place on the 9th on Bushy Greek, near the Verdigris river, about 180 miles from this place, between the forces under Col. Cooper, and the enemy's under Opothleyholo, estimated at 1000 or 5000, Col. Cooper had only about 1900 men, The enemy attacked Col. Cooper alout Il o'clock, and the fight continued all day un- til sun down. Col Simms' Texas regi- ment, that were in the fight fought with great bravery, and the Choctaws, Chicka- saws and Creeks, fought like tigers, in fact, the battle was one of the hardest fought battles that has taken place in the country
 The enemy followed Col. Cooper several miles and attacked him with great fury Col. C. drove them back to the woods, a distance of two miles. A large number ot Cherolkees were with Opothleyholo, like wise about 150 Seminoles. Col Drew with his men, who remained with him, fought well, and did good service. The Choctaws took about 250 scalps and the Chickasaws nearly 50, The Creeks did not scalp any because the enemy was theil own people.
 A white man; by the name of Eli Smith was taken, who had gone over to the ene- my, was tlied by court martial and shot He was deserter from Texas regiment Other deserters were taken and dealt with i in the same manner.
 Col Cooper behaved with the greatest coolness and bravery. We understand that he has called on Col. Mcintosh fol assistance, and it is to be hoped that he will furnish it with promptness. If aid is not sent, we will be likely to have terrible times on this frontier.

 Mr. Morehead, of Kentucky, IS less bit ter in his denunciation of Yankees" than heretofore, and now appears in his original character, as fine old Kentucky gentle man. Marshall Kane, of Baltimore, still sports his long boots and smoking cap MT. Faulkner, of Virginia, as heretofore, remains quiet, taking his confinement with the air of philosopher.
