Some of the Monitors crew have gone
tn New York from Washington, where
their vessel is lying up for repairs. They
give a very fair account Of the cruise and
while expressing a desire that they could
be in a less tight place than the lower deck
during an engagement, they deny that it
is impossible to breathe" there, as has been
stated. They also say that there is moth
ing serious the matter with the Monitor
nothing, in fact, which connot be remedied
in short time.
The United States steam frigate Roanoke,
one Of the two frigates Of that class in the
Navy, is now nearly ready for active ser
vice, and will probably be reported for her
officers and men before the 10th of Novem-
Der. The Roanoke is covered from stem
to stern with iron armor put on in the best
manner. She will be the most formidable
AZ all our mail vessels, except perhaps,
the Puritan, Dictator and Dunderberg, and
can bring q force against an opposing caaft
equal TO that Of two or three Monitors. The
floor is now being laid and will soon be
completed The ordnance authorities are
preparing her guns, the calibre Of which
it is not deemed advisable to publish. The
Roanoke and the Ironsides are the tive iron
clad frigates at present in the Navy.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 10.
The depreciation Of paper money is in
conveniently felt by the Government in its
transactions, including the difference Of
exchange, to pay the navy and civil ex-
penses, at points distant from where our
United States notes can be made available.
From the same cause many contractors
will be involved in heavy losses, if not in
bankruptcy, owing to the largely increas-
ed prices of articles which they have obli-
gated themselves to furnish. They will, it
Is said, apply to Congress for relief.
The subject of always having a large
and efficient reserve corps is popular in
military eiBeles, and among the sugges-
tions is one that it shall be placed under
she military GoyernOrship of the District
Of Columbia, in connection with the re-
construction and organization of the troops
constantly arriving here from the saveral
States.

An army correspondent Of the Buffalo
Express writes:

An army correspondent of the Buffalo
Express writes:
"You all remember Farina, the funam-
bulist. Well, last spring Farina was at
Washington. He had originated an army
bridge, constructed of ropes, on the Blon-
din type. won't describe it in detail, but
it was single cable on which was single
plank, and had rope hand-rail on each
side, all guyed to steady it. Farina built
many funambulistic and erial castles on
his invention It was exhibited to some
one from the War Department and favor
ably reported upon. But Farina sug-
gested and added improvements, and ac-
complished the attendance of Old Abe,
General Scott, members Of the Cabinet, q
number Of other dignitaries, and bevy
of lady spectators Farina was in his
glory, all smiles and politeness, and san
guine of success. The rope bridge was
strung over the canal at a considerable
height from the green and filthy water.
Troops were in attendance detailed to test
the contriyance. They began moving in
single file, and quite o squad had crossed,
the bridge was crowded with them, when,
horror Of horrors, the bridge suddenly
capsized, spiIling the poor fellows down
into the slime Some hung on a moment
and then dropped down among their com
panions. The cry Of alarm was soon dis
covered to be groundless, for the men be-
gan creeping on shore, woefully muddy
and bedraggled.
Farina at first looked on dumbfounded,
"but" said he, in narrating the adven-
ture, I saw that that was the death of my
army bridge; SO let out the laugh that
was bursting me. Old Abe looked at me
moment and then he laughed; the gal
liant old General, Cabinet ministers, and
ladies followed, and there was an execu-
tive chorus. Nothing was said about the
bridge by any of US. The inspecting
party went home, and did not press the
bridge matter any further" Farina ad-
ded, with sigh, but the bridge was a
good one for all that"

GEN. RoUssEAU.-One who was in the
Perryville battle has given us a glowing
description of the bearing of Gen. Rousseau
upon the field. Gen RS corps, it is we'll
known, bore the brunt of the terrible fight
ing of the bloody day, and the eyes of our
informant were fixed upon the General
when occupying position where the bull
lets were hurtling all around him like a
horizontal hail-storm, ne raised his good
beaver upon the point Of his sword and
waved it with q ringing hurrah as an en-
couragment TO his brave and enthusiastic
followers, thus making himself most con-
spicuous mark for the rebel troops. All
expected, each moment, to see his tall and
manly form go down amid the general car
mage, but he received no wound that di-
verted his thoughts for even one moment
from the battle.-LoiisUiIl Journal.

''0ne word about salt and salt-works.
A very intelligent officer remarked to me
yesterday that nothing could have been
easier than to have destroyed all the salt
and works. It could have been done with
out any hurry, by just sending a company
of cavalry down a little in advance Of US,
say the afternoon Of the day before, who
could in a few hours have completed the
work Of destruction. will never get over
my amazement at Colonel Lightburn Civ
ing no orders to destroy these works. The
whole South is being supplied now from
this quarter, and greater aid and comfort
TO the enemy could not have been given.
