The most extraordinary instance Of in
tercepting dispatches and deceiving gene
rails and operators was performed By G. 4
Ellsworth, telegraphic operator, attached
to Col. Morgan's band Of gucrillas, during
Morgan's recent astonishing raid through
Kentucky. The feats performed BY this
operator are going the rounds Of the South
ern papers. On his return to Knoxville
Ellsworth made an official report Of his
tricks. The whole thing is so rich and ras-
caly that we can not refrain from inserting
the "report" entire. Whatever the reader
may think Of the performances of the
<General Military Superintendent c. S. A.

not avoid laughing heartily. Some Of our
