EHThe a. Jefferson Grays9 is tue name
of company of volunteers just raised in
our sister city Of Madison for the war, COM
posed almost entirely of clerks in stores,
who have been given leaves of absence by
their employers for this purpose. Why
can not such a company be raised in New
Albany? There is plenty of good fighting
material to be found behind the counters OF
our merchants. Such company, or one
composed of young mechanics and clerks
could be filed by tomorrow night, and I
should be.-N a. Ledger. 80
Sure enough Aud why Is Evansville
not represented by such company2 The
young men ofIndianapolis have filled three
or four companies under the last call, and
yet the young men of Evansville-the store
clerks and bank clerks, and yoang me
chanics-are still waiting for the draft. W.
really hope the draft may catch some o
them, and that they will be placed unde

Psom Green River.


Our forces at Henderson have done but
kttls towards extermiuaing the bands OF
guerrillas which have infested that and the
adjoining counties. The scamps are still at
large, committing their depredations-steal-
ing horses and plundering stores. On
Tuesday last baud of the thieves visited
the residences of man named Robert Glib
son, in the vicinity of Curdsville, and took
a horse belonging to Mr.. Sbafer. From
there they went to Hebbardsville and took
all the shot and ammunition in the store OF
Mr.. Hatchett; also pair of pants and
four pairs boots. The shot and powder, we
are informed, was purchased in our city
last week. Some of our patriotic mer-
chants, never having received any warning
as to the consequences OF sending smmu-
milton into that part of Kentucky, sold
merely to keep up his assortment.
The same night they rausacked the
neighborhood in the vicinity of Hebbards-
vile, and took ell of the good horses they
could find. The horse of our informant was
stolen, among others. Over 80 horses were
taken from the Hebbardsville precinct
alone.
The excitement is very great throughout
that part of the country and the guerrilla:
are recruiting with great success. Foui
young men from the Curdsville neighbour
hood, named respectively, Bob. Hagan
Alves Willingham, and two by the name o
Reed had joined the guerrillas. Also anoth
err by the name of Joe Freels. We fur
| nish their names for the benefit of Col
Shackelford's new regiment.
On Tuesday night there were 80 guerril
las at Ed. Hagan's and John Freels. Tn
same night they took two horses from Dir
B n. Hicks. This makes four horses Mr.
Hicks has been compelled to contribute t
these rascals.
There was an extraordinary display c
cavalry on Thursday opposite ocr city {
catch q poor niger. We should lik
very much to hear of the same force dis
playing the same energy in following an
killing the guerrillas infesting the region
bordering on Green river. A more iovit
20 = not within our knowledge. tn
gusrrillas are well supplied with horses, an
thanks to the foresight of some N 90. ~,
mess men, are amply provided with ammu
milton. They will, no doubt show fgt
when pursued and thus afford an excelien
opportunity for display of gallantry o
the part of the Union forces.

RGWe understand that COL Shackle-
ford who, it was said a. few days ago, had
more Kentuckiaus rendered for his regi-
ment than he knew what to do with, is re-
ceiving companies from Indiana. Captain
Root, of Warrick County, has raised COM
pany in that county, and been ordered into
camp at Henderson. We don't like this az
all. IfKentucky is to be defended by In
diana soldiers, let them be recognized as
Indianians, and join Indiana regiments. We
have one company from this county in the
25th Kentucky, and another 10 the I'd Ken
lucky regiments, for which our State gets
no credit at all. These regiments are al
ways regarded and spoken of as composed
entirely of Kentuckians.

order of the President about absent officers
and soldiers, notice is hereby given that all
soldiers who have furloughs from any OF
the hospitals at Evansville or Mt. Vernon,
or from the (uow broken up) hospitals of
Henderson, Newburg, Terre Haute, or Vim

of 1.-THE above named hospitals without leave,
or at the time of the raid of the rebel thief
johnson were scattered through the coun-
try, must report within ten days from this
date, IN person, to the Medical Director at
Evansville, or they will be considered as
deserters, be liable to arrest and lose all
the r pay. This affords the last opportunity
for all men absent from the hospitals of
this section, and scattered about the coun-
try, to return. Mayors, Chiefs of Police,
Sherifs, Postmasters and Justices of the
Peace, are authorized by the order of the
President to assist in this matter, and it is
hoped they will report to the Medical Dr.
rector all instances in their neigh borhood
OF cosodrds who are skulkiDg about the
country, too faint-hesrted to meet the enc

different counties in Middle Tennessee to Nashville,
and many of them sent to Kentucky. But taking
negroes ncensed Kenuckans, and it is said an or

A STeRY ABOUT RETIER-A story is told C, nGern
ing Gen. Butler which Il not calculated to prove bis
confidence n the safety oil the secession element by
which he is surrounded Some time ago Gen. Butler,
finding that it was almost impossible for him to devote
to his wife the care TO which she is entitled resolved to
part with her apd send her homeward The day ct de-
parture arrived ard he went with his wife and children
on the boat on which they were to embark Unfortu-
nately the water high and the boat OF difficult ac
cess. The plank thrown over the water between the
deck and the shore formed acute angle, and Bcndn
himself would have found it difficult to maintain his
equilibrium upon it.. But Gen. Butler, confident that
MS centre of gravity sufficiently ponderous to
him against all accidents, ventured bravey 1pon
the sleepy road.
Hardly had he walked two steps, however, than his
feet glided along and down he went, measuring the
plank with all his length, and producing at the same
time noise something similar to that of old kettle
His servants to his assistance and he was up
again. When it had been asceftained that the General
was unhurt inquiries made concerniHg the sound
of metal heard az the time of his fall. 1t not long
before the mystery YVES solved The clothes of the
General having been torn in his perous descent people
saw protrudng underneath bis coat one large breast
plate reaching from his neck down to his thigh This
was the object which bad produced the noise. 1t
ascertaned after that the General wears this kind
of armor since his arrival in New Orleans, and that be
never goes out without it.

ONE OF PoPEs OFFICERS ARRESTED FOR GRAND
LARcENY-One Of P0pe's officers was left behind yes
ter day when the others dispersed in the direction of
Yankeed0m rather was brought back after getting
some distance on his way. His name is William s.
Atwood and his rank that of Major in the lst regi-
ment of Michigan volunteers. His detention was
caused by order of Gen. Winder to that effect a
charge grand larceny having been entered against At
wood 1t appears that while Atwood's regiment was
prowing in the vicinity Of Mount Vernon, he and q
number Of his comrades proceeded to depredate On the
premises by virtue of their belonging to the family of
Col. Jno A. Washington, a "rebe," and in pursuance
of Popes proclamation. Atwood selected bis share
of the puuder the celebrated picture of George Wash
ngton painted by Stuart, and which for eighty odd
years had been hanging in the venerable mansion un-
disturbed.
lie caused it to be shipped to his Northern home as
prize, and doubtless felt very few twnges OF con
science while performing the act of spoation and sa
crilege. We believe the complaint which caused his
detention was entered by member OF Col. Wash.
ingtons family. Moj. Atwood offered the option
of ransomiDg himself by producing the picture, bat
giving satisfactory that it would be done
he was brought back. We understand that the gov
erDneut will hold on to him till the picture is restored
When exchanged, therefore, he will be given as en-
equivalent to Gtn. Washngtons portrait. The Yam
KEGS profess great veneration for Washington but
never imagined it vas intense as to embrace the
stealing of his likeness especially from Mt Vernon,
place sacred in the eyes OF the world.
