sea- The Richmond Enquirer endeavors
to conceal its chagrin at MeClellan's escs re
to the protection of the gunboats, by ridi-
culing the officers and men composing the
army of the Potomac. 1t relates the fol-
lowing incident which is good one, if it
does come from a rebel source: aA
When the remnant of the army reached
the river, a Federal army officer, meeting a
naval, in the delirium of his delight threw
his arms around him and exclaimed, ''there
ought to be gunboat in each mans fami
! ~" So deep is their attachment to the
gunboats that, we're all of them ordered
from the river, the army would 'skedad-
die F" out of Virginia the first dark night.
They regard Oolumbiad with veneration,
whiIee tour-mile shooting UNDERGROUND
| rife gun is idolzed. Mcclellan will have
to carry gunboat with every regiment
before he can make them leave the river.
The Enquirer evidently bias wholesome
dread of Yankee ingenuity and energy, as
the following paragraph from the same arli-
Gle clearly demonstrates: = e..lsl s1s
The Federais having had success in canal
| working around Island No. 10 and else
where on the Mississippi, have been serious
ly considering the feasibility of a deep ditch
for gunboa,s around Drary's Bluff. As ri
diculous as this may appear TO some of our
readers, we know that at one time, and that
not very recent, it was discussed by Federal
engineers. The complete aud perfect barri-
i cade, impossible to the smallest craft, which
no. extends across the river at Drury' s
| Bluff, would have to be removed under the
deadliest FIRE fsom field artillery and sharp
shooters, even after the slencing of our bat
teries by the gunboats-,his the Federals
will understand, aud they may seek to ditch
Drury Bluff out of existence, and Richmond
| into ashes. a-s...... ..--aixy -.t.-..sr
T. Our army, neither digs nor drills one half
as much as the Yankees, and yet the spade
aud the pick contributed as much to the de-
tense of Richmond as the musket and the
cannon. Our impatient people must see that
General Lees elaborate earthworks enabled
him to remove from the enemy's front that
large portion of his army that fell upon 4
rear, and won the victories which relieved
Richmond. We must again dig. dig, dig,

popular.

ficials, come sweeping and ruslling into the
room like an army. bent on taking bat

not any of the air of petitioners in this bevy
of females. A hasly glance at the faces of
this new group, recalls very wildly some
OF the faces occasionally seen on the plat
form at Woman's Rights Convention. A
friend whispers in our ears that several of
them are Yankee school ma'ams, who have
turned fire-eaters, and can now devour more
blazing sulphur than The great Robert
Houdiu himself. The spokeswoman tells
the Governor very CURLY that they wish to
call on the Parson whom he has sent to the
Penitentiary, and carry him something TO
eat; it is three o'clock, and the poor. man
has not had a mouthful to eat since dinnerl

the existence of this rebel Onderdonk, and

Johns0m's Paroles OisreSA'~o
The following dispatch ftom Gen. Boyle's
settles the controversy as to the effect, or
legal obligation, of the paroles administered
by the highway man johnson. They are to
be regarded % the oath administered by
any other rosber,and considered in no other
way. If q footpad stops gentleman on
his way home, some dark night, demands
his money or his life, and after robbing
him, administers an oath that he will not
, appear as, witness against him in any
court of justice, the oath would be inst as
obligatory as those administered by John.
son. No court of Justice, however, would
pay any attention to such an oath. It's re-
eognition would be the offering Of premi-
um for assassination and theft. Our streets
and highways would swarm with thieves
just as the roads of Kentucky now swarm
with guerrillas. No life would be safe,
and property would become worthless.
l, General Boyle, very properly, we think,
refuses to recognize the pretended commits
sion of Johnson, who has already placed
himself without the pale of civilized war
iare He is a thief and murderer. His
cowardly moss troopers waylay and shoot
gentlemen whom they outbumber ten
to one, or they attack and plumber defense
less hospitals of sick soldiers. But
they dare not meet an equal number of
men in an open, manly fight. They are
nice birds, to be issuing paroles of honor,
the least spark of which has long since
been extinguished in their deprayed and
savage souls. - fsa' $50 ~ .lsts

his return to his regiment, and at the re-

We copy this General Order for the ben

We have received another long letter
from Mr.. 8. B. Johnson, relative to the eff
feet of the oath administered by man of

and its publication of little interest to the
general reader. Mr.. johnson will find an
answer to some of his scruples, perhaps in
the dispatch Of General Boyle to Surgeon

Articles Most Wanted For Our Wound

Deet. Whitney Of GAINESVILLE, who is
now on duty at the Mound City Hospital,
writes that the following articles are most
needed in taking care of the sick and
wounded soldiers.
Shirts-made of coarse bleached cotton
cloth open in front, tied with tape, in
stead of buttons wide sleeves with hem
and string to gather the sleeve about the
wrist, instead of wristband.
Drawers-naade large, with hem and
string at the TOP, instead of waistband.--
Hem and tape around the ankles, to draw
together.
Dressing gowns--made of cheap calico
Slippers-manafactured from pieces O
carpet, are needed for the convalescent-
| Wooden or cotton socks.
Sheets for single beds, pillows and pill
low slips.
Any cid, worn, soft cotton or linen cloth
to be torn up and used as occasion may re

Dried fruits, ofany kind. Currant jellies
are used largely for acidulated drinks.
Bandages should be used in pre-
pairing bandages. They should be rolled

A Chance for Poets.
In Milwaukee, hogs and cows are per-
mitted by the city g dads to roam the
streets at all hours of the day and night,
and commit depredations such as they on
ly can commit 10 the obstruction of shade
trees, uprooting of sidewalks, &c. &c. &c.
At the recent election for Mayor, the dem
ocratic candidate who was questioned up
on the subject gave it as his opinion that
hogs and COWS have the same rights in
the streets as men and women" and as be
was elected in the face and eyes of such
declaration majority of the people of that
city we presume are of the same way of
thinking. Caleb Wall has therefore conclu-
ded to immortalize the mayor, and himself
at the same time, by invoking the muses.
and offering, in the Milwaukee Sentinel,
the following prizes:
For first best poem on hogs and cows
running at large. and having all the priv
Hedges of the sidewalk; one heavy set Of
silver-plated teaspoons.
Second best poem for same; one silver

First best poem Why cows and hogs
should not run at large and destroy trees,
gardens, &C. and mutiate the sidewalks !:
one set of super ilver-plated dessert forks.
Second best poem for same; copy of
the life of Ethan Allen.
We propose to do something of the kind
here but have no time this week to ar
range the programme and decide as to ex-
actly the proper way to get at it. We
content ourselves for the present with sim
