General Me. iflIan and the Approaching Move.
ment. OF the Army.
The following extract from a letter re-
ceived thi, morning by one of our prom.
nent citizens, comes fom a responsible
source, and hints at certain movements
said to be impending
Washington, Jan. IL, 1862.
My DEAR SIR, The
night of the rebellion has passed, and the
dawn is about breaking Before the pres
ent month has gone these things will sure
~ conc to pass Hallcck, with the great
ilotilla and an army of 100000 strong
sill sweep like an avalanche down the
mississippi where they will be Joined by
General Batter i'll New Orleans and Mo-
pile. Gen. Buell, with nearly or quite
the same force will march into tennessee,
capture Nashville, and cooperate with the
Union forces in manner and direction it
would not be polite now to point out.
Gems. Rosecrans and Kelly will advance
from Western Virginia, and do their share
in harmony with the general plan. Gems
Banks and Stone will move in conjunction
with the rest from the Upper Potomac.
Gen. Burnside will do his appointed work
in Virginia. Gen. Sherman will explain
by dce,,s. not words. his inaction. Gen.
! Mex 'leilan will force the rats from their
holes at Manassas. attack them at three
points at once, anl will fulfill his modest
! pledge that the war will be short but
desperate" | do not give you more than
the general outline of these simultaneous
movements he details of the grand
plan of this camp ign will startle the
world. and vindicate Gen. MeClellan's
high reputation for military strategy
he men and supplies are now for the
Hioe tihio neatly icduN. luz ucIdy .,
caused maiuly by . rcd-tape" and imbe.
cile fossils, i'll and out of the departments.
and by thieveing contractors aud material
men, will be accounted for. and the blame
placed where 1T belongs.
A premature movement would have de-
ranged the plan of the whole campaign,
which is 80 perfect that success IS certain.
: A bad move untimcly made might
have hazarded thegame. The impending
mate is close at hand, in limited num-
Der Of forced moves. The loss OF place
here or there. the defeat OF one or another
division Of the army, cannot affect or pro-
long the result. The ordinations are so
perfect that failure is impossible.

BAD FOR PArrERsoS-We beg to call tho
duct Of Dir. Patterson, the Supervisor of
streets. We have noticed frequently, and
they say such is his general practice-that
instead of baton, cane, or some such SYM
Dol of authority. he carries a shovel or
spade, and is forever roking around, dig
ging. shoveling dirt, and doing work which
the city pays him for experimenting labo-
rers to do. The other evening, during the
shower, and even after the whistle had
blown. he was seen clearing out cutters
and opening water ducts, regardless of
rain and hail. Such conduct is wholly
without precedent il this city ano amounts
to an innovation on old established usage.

ACCIDENTALLY DRowNED.-An interesting

New CUSTOMER AT THE BANK-A stump
tail COW being driven along Madison street
the other day by butcher, rushed into
the City Bank; but was promptly thrust
out The incident gave rise to sundry
remarks
An officer of the Bank said she was
thrust out because she was ,tumptaa.
An Irishman remarked that she evi.
IDENTIFY ran in because she was Other
(the Teller)
A bystander thought she was bad
institution about bank, because, from
certain indications, he judged she was
inclined to over issue.
Another thought it was miracle she
escaped with her hide on.

Recruiting.

The business of recruIng in this city,
which had commenced under such en-.
couraging auspices, has nearly collapsed
since the adjournment of the Board of
Supervisors on Wednesday. We speak
within bounds when we say that at least a
couple of hundred men, in this city and
vicinity, stood ready to put down their
names as volunteers, the moment the Su.
pervisors should decide in favor of voting
bounty. But that Board, for reasons
having decided rot to vote bounty, the re-
cruiting business fell dead as a hammer,
and we fear some of the Offices will be
closed
There are, however, still chances enough
for those who are very anxious to 60, and
get the large bounties offered.
We presume if the company which Mr..
NJ. Osman and others commenced recruit.
ing under such favorable auspices, should
fill up at once, it will be readily accepted
at any of the rendezvous, if the project Of
home regiment must be abandoned; or,
if the boys are after the largest bounty,
Chicago will take them fast enough.
A bill posted about the street announces
that G. B. King, Esq, Postmaster. will re-
ceive recruits for the Board of Trade regi-
ment of Chicago. Mr.. X. is not accepting
recruits with the purpose Of joining the
regiment himself; he is merely giving the
use of Lis name as agent to forward re-
cruits to Chicago. Unquestionably, all
who give him their names will receive the
large bounty offered in that city.
And then, as to all who desire to volun-
teer, it is needless to saw, this is probably
the last chance they will have to get even
the bounty offered by the government
Undoubtedly the men raised by all those
persons who have been commissioned by
Gov. Yates to raise recruits, will be accep-
ted on reporting at any OF the appointed
rendezvous This will be the case until
those persons are notified to discontinue
recruiting. But if the government has
decided on the draft, this notice can be
delayed but few days longer, and then
the volunteer business is done for. Then
instead of 800 bounty and $l3 a month,
the only alternative will be to go or sweat.
and the only wages will be $ll month
and no bounty.

Horse THIEVES ABoUr.-The stealing of
lot Of harness from the stable of MrJohn
Cox (see his advertisement in another col

horses had been about they would have
gone with the harness. 1t would be well
for owners of horses to keep one eye open.

The RIGHT TALk.-It was stated in the
meeting the other night by Q. C. Gray
that Mr.. John Manley, hardware merchant
in this city, had offered to his two only
available clerks to give them bounty Of
$50 each and to continue their pay during
their absence if they would volunteer

Ottawa equally patriotic. Pass in their

On last Saturday J. West called At our
Office and left BASKET of eggs with his
compliments. "Thinks to myself, thinks

egg in the house for week and couldn't
get any, but how did he come to be 80 op-

he hid known we. wanted eggs but then
10. West always does the right thing at

That evening lady friend called and
as We went into the room where she wait

~ thought maybe you'd like some eggs
for breakfast and brought you a pocket
FULL" We held cur apron ~onde ring how
she too, could have thought Of our want
ing eggs. Then such a pocket full as she
turned out. But what coincidence, for
both to think of bringing Us the very
thing We had wanted!
On the next morning the Post Master
inquired if W. had received any eggs
yet He too knew We had wanted some
and 80 the mystery thickene1, but then We
concluded that probably the P. NJ. had
intended inviting himself up to dinner
had slipped into the pantry when We we're
out to sec what the prospect was and had
thus learned the state of our larder but
that same day Mr.. Fowler arrived from .
