shals and their associates. Its provisions are,
that all actions against uarshals and other Of

If re may believe the rebel journals in
matter whtre they have really no inter
est to deceive, our gun boats and mortar boats
opened fire in the mississippi on april 18th.
The Inhabitants Of New Orleans had been
much alarmed some days before, and It WAS
to anrtase this panic, We suppose, that the
New Orleans De{fa Of the 10Th, three days
after the battle Of Pittsburg Landing and tic
surrender Of Island No. 10, reIoiced its read
ers by the announcement that General
GIast had applied to General Beaureglrd
for an armistlcc Of three days to bury the
dead, and had been refused; that the
Ce,federates had captured eighty pieces
Of our artillery and thirty thousand military
equipments; that General Sherman had been
killed by the guerilla Morgan's soldiers; and
that Island No: 10 bad not been and would not
be surrendered. This Is pretty good for one
paragraph. The writer might, however. have
added that Commodore Foote had cut his
tbroat in despair; that Mrs. Davis had re-
ceiyed company at the White House in Wash
ington, in accordance with her promise made
last year; that General Halleck lad taken the
overland route to California, with only two
sandwiches and hat box; and that Confede

the servants which they have been allowed to

Sandusky. They are, in respect to attendance,
to be required hereafter to do as is required BY

OF this rule, there WAS some hesitancy for =

Strange Escape of Two Confederate
officers to Toronto.

from the Toronto Leader, April 23-l
Two Confederate officers have just arrived
in Toronto, who made rather novel escape
from the hands Of the Northerners to Canada
It seemed they served at Fort Donelson-
fought well-and were captured. For some
time past they have been moved about from
one place to another, and were last being
cared for On the Columbus {Ohio) Railroad,
where, unexpectedly, they met with the
proper and what afterwards proved successful
means Of escape: In the cars they were
dressed in thcir Confederate uniform, when 4
couple Of kind and patriotic passengers
slipped plain dress oVercolts to them, and
gave them the whisper to put the new dog
gerry on, and hide as much as possible, their
military aspect. This WIS accomplished, when,
in few minutes, the person in charge Of tue
train came along, and 80 well Was the disguise
effected, took them for common people and
expressed surprise at their being therefor
getting, it Is left to be presumed, all about his
two officer prisoners. They were consequent,
u mnde to leave the train, and Of course
were right glad that fortune and circurn.
stances 50 greatly aided their flight. Soon
the two Confederates made tracks Tor Canada
and in due time reached Toroto. Their names
on the register book Of the Rosin House,
elaborated with the appcndagc Of &C. s. A.
attract much attention They express them
selves quite at home, and hare met with
t many manifestations Of Kindness and SYM
pathy, Of which it Is to be hoped they ar
deserving.

The War In New Meuco---How
F1erce1y they Fight.

In no portion of the Union have our troops
conlelded with greater bravery than in New
Mexico, but ON i6g to their location and COM
paratire insignifcance Of numbers, and the
public mind beirg engrosscd in scenes
nearer home, very little attention has
been given to the struggle of these brave
men, TO prevent the inroads of the rebels.
A little incident was narrated to us few
evenings EiDce by Judge uubbell, of Alber-
qucrque, that shows the ierceness with which
both parties tight. Although it may have
been in print, the particulars have not been
given with that minuteness to which so fierce
Tccontre is entitled. 4 company of one
hundred mounted Texans attacked a
force Of cighty-tiyc Of our men engaged in
guarding battery. The former went i'll,
as they boosted. with the determination OF
"c1caniuy out the id Yankees and showing
them another Bnl1 Run On smaller scaleH
At the first fire our men emptied fifty seven
saddles! The balance Of the TeSans, no way
discon certed, hastily dismounted, and with i
bowie knife strapped to cach mans wrist, and
q revolver in cacl hand, rushed upon the loyal
troops. The litter gave way not an inch, but
with bayonet fixed advanced TO the charge.
Then followed the most terrible haud- to hand
fight recorded in this war. Both parties fought
for life, and with determination unequallcd.
We know not how long the struggle lasted,
but when it ceased only .5aue Of the brave but
misguided Texans remained alive, and but
eight OF the Federal troops were left to boast
Of the victory they had SO terribly achieved.
