the remaining three will soon be out. The
commentator which we bestowed upon the

there are few departments Of knowledge
whose principles are not discussed and rem

EE- We hear but little now from Beaure-
CARDS army at Oklahoma. The Mobile News
occasionally gets an inkling of news from
that quarter. The sanitary condition of our
army is much improved. 1t has better diet,
good water, an a beautiful country. Mean
time, the work of organization and discipline
is going on, ready for new movements, which
must depend largely upon those of the en-
envy. Gen. Pope, after following Beauregard
treated again with all haste, his men scat
tered through the country in wild confusion,
crying out for "waterl' and damning "such
a country" and Gen. Halleck for bringing
them into it.

A FIRE CoMPASY.--We have heretofore in
-advertently pretermitted any mention of the
organization of Fire Company in our city,
which has been in existence for several weeks
The company was organized by DR.. McKie,
Provost Marshal, in Ompliance with orders
from General Bragg, who sent good suction
Engine from Mobile, together with some hose;
the latter, however, is almost worthless.
The company will be compelled to purchase
n hose carriage, hose sparrers, uniform, &c:
also, to erect an engine house. In order to
render the Engine more efficient the compa-
ny will also be required to purchase Gal
lery Engine. 1t will require between two
and three thousand dollars-say twenty-five
hundred-to purchase al that is necessary
TO put the company in tip-top working trim.
OF this amount, the Board of Police have
already subscribed five hundred dollars, and
the Ladies Aid Society have contributed one
hundred dollars. The Engine itself having
been furnished by the Government-six humid
red dollars being already in hand, and the
work being thus in forward state, it is con-
fidently expected that the property-holders
of Canton will Subscribe the balance of the
requisite sem without delay, and place the
company at once in a condition to operate
effectively against the deyouring element, in
case we should be visited by FIRE.
The company has now between twenty and
thirty members, but desire to increase the
number to fifty or sixty.

FROM VICkSRURG,

From the Evening Citizen of Tuesday
we extract the following items relative tc
affairs at this beleaguered but brave little
city.
Hor WORK ExPECTED-Gen. Van Dorm
having determined to defend this place 1T
all hazards, and to fight the enemy as long
as there is a man left to fire a gun,
has ordered the removal Of the women and
children eight miles from the city.
From BELow.-It is reported in this city
by persons just Arrived from New Orleans.
that the Federals have feet Of thirty trans
ports coming up, with ten thousand troops,
for the purpose of landing and making a
flank movement upon this place. It IS be-
lieVed that these forces viii be landed at
Warrenton and simultaneous attack by the
land forces and the feet viii be made upon
our batteries. 1t is not unlikely that
movement of this kind may be on foot, from
the fact that the feet remains idle so long.
What their plans may be viii be developed
in day or two.

THE RAIN that we so auxiously and hope
fully looked for, and which was so fully prom
ised to US here on Monday and Tuesday last,
has not yet fallen upon our dusty streets,
parched gardens and furnishing fields.
The corn crops in this section are begin
ming to suffer seriously from the drought, and
should there not be general rain within the
next week, the promised crop in this county
will be curtailed thousands of bushels
The prospects for rain, however, are still
very good--as sultry weather and flying
clouds prevail.

pes, The New York Herald says that Sec
rotary Stanton has decided to release all the
Confederate surgeons now held at the North
as prisoners of war. The reason of this
course is that Gen. jackson released uncon-
ditionally Dr. Mitchell, of the lst Maryland
and DR.. Stone, of the ID Massachusetts, reg
iment, taken at Front Royal. During the
late battle at Winchester, May the 18th, ten
Federal surgeons were captured among the
other prisoners. They were released upon
the field by our surgeons, who afterwards
received the sanction of Gen. jackson &c
their act.
