EFFECT OF CoNFIsCATING THE Ne
GRoEs.--A Memphis letter referring to
the campaign in Arkansas says:
" Nothing has so efectually shorn the
rebels of strength as depriving them of
their negroes All the labor of the
camps and Notifications was done by the
swarthy sons of toll, and without these the
burden was thrown upon the soldiery,
never, even in times of peace, either ac-
castomed or Injured to manual labor.
When it became necessity, they shrank
from it, not only because physically I'M
equal to the task, but because it degraded
them, as they said, to the level of negroes,
and rather than submit to the degradation
they throw down their arms and desert.
Many of these deserters flock to the I'm
ion standard and enroll themselves in
Curtis army, two full regiments of which
is entirely made up of Arkansas trav.

A WONDERFUL INvENTIoN.-In the
Zollverein Department of the Interna-
tional Exhibition has just been placed
wonderful piece of mechanism, only a few
days from Hanover. All our readers
know the difficulty of awakening early in
order to catch a morning train. Here is
a piece of mechanism which will not only
ring gentle alarm to rouse light sleep
ers, but it will at the same time strike a
light for lamp and another to boil cup
of coffee. If the first alarm be not enough
a louder one will follow sufficiently sonor-
GUS to awaken the dead. If even this
should prove insufficient, the mechanism
will, after a short interval, pull off the
night cap, if the sleeper wears one and
in the almost impossible case of a contin-
ued slumber after all this, the machine, as
if disguised at such laziness, will tilt the
sleeper out on the floor. In fact, the
mechanism does everything almost but
shout the hour in the sleeper's ear. Al
extraordinary amount of ingenuity has
been expended upon this combination Of
clockwork, and springs, and luciters, and
levers.

about doing the same thing, and after

Brownlow's speech, Gen Cass was called

high character and standingRn Louisville, il
