Interesting and Courteous COrrespOn-
dence.
The following correspondence. which
passed between Com. Porter of the Feds
eral gunboat Essex, and Captain Miller of
the Confederate steamer Grampus, is en-
phatic on the part of Porter, to say the
least, if it is not quite up to the Chester,
field style of correspondence
PORTER TO MILLER.
Come out here you cowardly rebels. and
show your gunboats. PORTER.
MILLER's REPLY.
MARINE HEADQUARTERS,
COLUMBUS, KY, Jan. l3, 1862.
Commander Porter, on United States gunboat
Essex:
SiR-The iron.clad steamer Grampus will
meet the Essex at any point and time your
honor may appoint, and show you that the
power is in our hands. An early reply will be
agreeable to Your obedient servant,
MARSH j. MILLER,
Captain Commanding C. S. l. C. Steamer
Grampus,
CAPT. PoRTER's REJO1NDER.
UNITED STATES GUNBoAT ESSEX,
VIM. D. PORTER, Commanding,
FORT JEFFERSON, Saturday. Jan. Is, 1922
To the traitor Marsh Miller, commanding a
rebel gunb0at called the Grampus:
Commander Porter has already thrashed
your gunboat fleet shelled and slenced your
rebel batteries at the Iron Banks !; chased your
miserable co,cardiy self dozen behind Columbus !;
but, if you desire to meet the Essex, show
yourself any morning in Prenty's Bend, and
you shall then meet with traitors fate--if
you have the courage to stand.
God and our country ''rebels offend both"
(Signed) PORTER.

The month just closed has disappointed
the weatherwise, and those who place any
trust in their predictions. 1t was given
out on the long established authority of the
muskrats and the Indians, that we were to
have mild winter. December kept the
promise to the sense but January broke it
to the hope: The truth is, it is popular
mistake which will last as long as the world,
probably, to suppose that it has been given
to man, or beast, or bird, to know the fu.
ture of the weather by any omen, or instinct,
and especially the weather of Minnesota.
The barometer, and certain signs, may inI
dictate the weather of to-day or tomorrow,
knowledge enough for those who know not
what day may bring forth, and who are
taught to ask daily for " daily Bread" The
following results were obtained from the
