To Major Gen. Curtis:
have the honor to report that on the
evening of the Goth l received informa-
ton of o party of rebels running up
Mangua Creek, making towards a point
eight miles east of this place, and en-
route to join a rebel force in the South
west. l Immediately took l05 men of
the Tenth Illinois Cavalry and started
at FIVE PM to intercept them. / came
on their pickets about halfpast eight
o clock, drove them in, and attacked the
main force, about 200 strong, killing 4
and wounding many, as l afterwards
understood, and capturing q prisoners,
among them one captain, who informs
me that Col. Dorsey was in command.
We likewise captured lot of horses,
saddles, shot-guns, muskets, and rifles.
My loss was l killed and l wounded.
This party was organized by Rucker
and Hughes, who sign themselves majors
in the rebel army. They scattered in
every direction through the mountains,
large portion returning in the same
direction they came; but they were so
completely surprised that they never
tried to collect together again. The
largest trail could find in one party
was ten. / followed it for fifty miles
next day, when they likewise scattered
in every direction; and l ordered Capt
Mahan, of State militia, to gather them
in. They are completely disorganized.
am, General, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
JAMES STUART,
Lt-Col 10th Ill Cav, comdg.

November, the "Hallelujah Chorus" chanted
by eight hundred and fifty sturdy fellows,

strangers; but in spite of the fine shelter the
typhoid was soon busy in their ranks. and
when they went down with Casey's division
they were only seven hundred and fift!
strong; one-eighth died of disease. While
on the peninsula they lived on hard biscuit
and water for five weeks, owing to the lneffi
cheney or rascality of some one, so that wher
they took up the double quick for Williams
burg the men fell on the road and died from
sheer exhaustion. At the battle of Fair Oak
they numbered, fit for duty, only one hun

largely from her immense wealth, in order to
relieve the necessities of her emigrant coun-
trymen; and, had she never returned to
France to repossess herself Of treasures she
had buried at the foot of tree in her park
at Luciennes, she might have died natural
death.
In her absence at London she wore mourn
ing for Louis XIV, and that was crime E.
nough in the eyes of the Jacobin committees.
While she was abroad, Zamore, young ne
gro, had charge of the French abode of Mad
anne DuBarry, and, Notwithstanding all the
care she had bestowed upon him in infancy,
he betrayed her to revolutionary committee
of Luciennes. DuBarry, says Lamartine,
"had brought up this child through woman
ish caprice, as one rears domestic animal.
She caused herself to be painted at the side
of this black, to resemble in her portraits, by
the contrast of countenance and color, the
Venetian courtesans of Titan" She con-
ceived for this negro the tenderness of a
mother; but Zamore was intoxicated with
the ideas of the revolution, and he betrayed
his benefactress. She was accused and con-
demned, and her fall was regarded by the
people with the utmost delight. STEPPED
themselves in crime more heinous than that
of this victim of their fury, she was, never.
theless, exhibited to them as stain upon the

fold amidst the yells of the populace. She
had reached the age of IS, but her beauty
was unimpaired. She was dressed in white
and her black hail, cut behind the head by
scissors of the executioner, left her marble
neck exposed. She was in the brilliancy o
mature life, and tears flowed necessarily from
her eyes upon her bosom. But the remorse

A Cool NEBMoNTER.-Some wears since.
as Narnum Lockwood was digging limestone
at Cayendish Falls, VT, near the southern
brink of the river, by springing hard upon
his iron bar he lost his balance and was
thrown over the precipice into the whirlinp
eddy, fifty-six feet below. His companions,
rushing to the brink, beheld him butfetiug
with the high swelling waves, which ever and
anon would engulf him in spite of his fran
tic efforts to escape. At last he succeeded
in securing hold upon a jutting rock, by
which he drew himself from the water in an
almost exhausted state. Hewas beyond the
reach of his companions, who, solicitous for
ms welfare, but unable to descend into the
deep abyss to he lip him, made earnest inquir-
les whether he was much injured by the fall.
Looking up, and intently feeling in his pock-
cts, while the water ran in torrents from his
drenched person, he replied: "The fall didn't
hurt me, but I'm darned fraid I've lost nv
jack-knife." From this circumstance the
place is called Narnum's Point.-I. d. Ha-

But DO not you desire the restoration of
"The Union as it Was?" we are asked. We
answer that we are for "The Union as it Was
II 1t cannot be improved, but We greatly pre-
ter the Union as it ought to be. For in
stance:
|. We prefer the Union so reconstructed
that blameless and belVed president elect
may travel through any and every state on
his way to the capital without mourning the
peril of assassination, and without being COM
PEELED to anticipate and choose darkness for
any portion Of his journey.
II. We prefer Union wherein the for
mally chosen and duly accredited representa-
tives of state, proceeding to another state
to test there the legality of imprisoning its
citizens unaccused and unsuspected of crime,
may not be hunted out of that other state
like loathsome criminal, and compelled to
abandon his mission to save his life.
III. We prefer Union wherein every up
right, inofensive citizen unsuspected of
crime, may safely count on the protection of
the Law and its ministers in every portion Of
our country, and only be subjected to deten-
ton or injury through the quiet and peaceful
operation Of the laws.
~. We prefer Union in which Sena.
tor of the United States shall not be subject.
ed to ruffianly assault and beating on the
floor of the Senate for words void of person
atty conscientiously spoken in debate.
'. We prefer Union wherein every in
nocent man shall be entitled to receive the
wages of his own labor, and not see his wife
and children sold away from him when Meth
er he nor they are accused Of any wrong.
vi. We prefer Union wherein the prai
ses of Freedom shall not be shouted by mel
who stiAe by violence the expression of any
sentiment which condemns their iniquities
and who make it a crime to teach young
children to read and write.
In short, while we desire and struggle
for the restoration at all events, we prefe
that it should be thoroughly Union of free
