b UNION MEN MUnDEEED.-We learn
that two or three days ago, several vii
lains late from Prices army were arrested
on the Nodaway. east of Oregon. and
were being conducted to St. Joseph.
On the road halt was made, and the
guard put their guns out of their hands,
when by some means the prisoners got
hold of them, knocked one of the guard
down, shot another dead, and MORALLY
wounded the third, and made their es-
cape. They are still at large. The Un-
ion man who was killed, we understand.
was named Bowers and one of the pris-
oners (perhaps two) was Bramble.
So goes. Secessionists are compelled
to take the oath. and give bond; and al
most daily are Union men murdered
either shot down in open daylight. or
"assassinated from some secret hiding
place." When will the fact be realized
and duly appreciated, that the only rene.
dies for treason are hemp and lead

Preparing for the Battle.

CAIRO. March %.
Advices by boat that arrived this
morning, state that the rebel force at
Corinth is being rapidly increased. There
is direct railroad communication with
Richmond. and troops are continually ar
irving.
Intelligence by deserters and spies state
the enemy to be 10. 900 strong. To meet
so formidable body. our Generals have
moved more slowly than at first sntici-
pated.
A German deserter from Corinth. states
that Beauregarc was there. and that he
was lame. from injuries lately received.
Among the regiments there. was one
armed entirely with pixies; another carried
battle axes. The flag of the latter was a
dark field. with large tree upon it,
branded, "Abolitionists' Government"
A parsonage representing Lincoln was in
the top. and the ba,tle-axe regiment at
the root. choping the tree down.
The rebels are confident they have made
Corinth impregnable. A parade ground
and place for healthy recreation of troops,
is being formed by Gen. Grants com.
mand at Pittsburgh.
Advices from New Madrid. this morn
ing, state that the rebels have erected
heavy batteries on the shore opposite, to
prevent any attempt at crossing over BY
Gen. Pope's command. to get in their
rear. They were occupying all the high
ground on the Kentucky shore. but it is
thought they can be dislodged, when it is
wished.

The Cambridge followed the Nashville,

the hope Of getting her into fight, but

ture generally. Since the beginning oI
the year more than 10000 copies have
been added to its circulation-a result q,
once highly-satisfactory to its conductors
and gratifying to the lovers of literature.
The conductors of the Atlantic accept
this fact, as we'll as the unanim Gus verdict
of the press for three months past, as an
assurance that their magazine has reached
q point of excellence which it has never
before attained. They will not. however,
pause in their efforts on this account, but
will constantly strive to advance the
standard already established. To this
end they will go on in the same path
which has lately been followed, and
through which the Atlantic has been led
to such general acceptance. The same
thoughtful and patriotic political papers,
from the best prose writers. will continue
to lend power and dignity to its pages;
and favorite poets will evolve from the
ever-shifting phases of cur national affairs
the lessons of the hour. The two great
serial features which have SO firmly fixed
public attentioa--Professor Agassiz' s pop.
ular expositions of the science of Natural
History, and James Russell Lowell's
"Bigelow Pspers"- be continued each
month.
Still other features of extraordinary in.
terest have been provided for the forth
coming numbers. and the conductors will
always seek to present in the pages of the
Atlantic the best and freshest thought up-

BAD ON SIaNs.-Kansas is death on
old established weather signs The theo
ry Of the first three days of December
governing the succeeding three months,
was used up several years ago. The sup
position that thunder at the beginning Of
Winter. presaged an open Winter, was
finished up by the experience of the past
Winter. The Winter Just closed has ru-
ined the Ground Hogs reputation; and
now. to cap the climax, the favorite be-
lief that If March comes in like lion, it
will 60 out like lamb. and rice rersa. is
scattered to the winds. The first day of
the past month was windy. drizzly.
snowy, slsety. and disagreeable general
ly. and the last day was precisely the
same. II the thing were tried, we should
not be surprised if the school-boy theory
of the cause producing "a sty on the
eye would likewise prove q failure in
Kansas. Won't some one try it, and
report to Us the result of his investiga-
tions.
