uary, 1862. New York Frank Leslie.
The January number of Frank Lesle's
Monthly Magazine fully sustans the reputation
won by its predecessors. Its copiously illustra-
ted articles, and the variety of excellent read
ing matter embracing tales poetry, biography
natural history &C., render it one OF the most
attractive monthles of its class. In addition
TO all these, the Gazette Of fashions regularly
chronicles the novelties in that department, with
appropriate suggestions in the matter OF pur-
chasing and making up the almost endless va
riety of articles which contribute to a lady's
wardrobe, thus enabling her to dispense largely
with the assistance of the fashionable modiste
The work table and the culinary department
also received n due share of attention.

THE MISSISSIPPI GUNBoATs.-A Cairo cor
respondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, under
date of the 24th says:
"An interesting target practice on the part of

Saturday. The object was to test the strength
of the gunboat's sides as plated. a target was
placed on each island above Mound City. The
Two gunhoats were stationed from it distance
of FIVE hundred and sixty yards. Only two
shots took any effect, although many hit it.
An eighty pound shell filled with sand, fl ON

were riveted. 1t merely made slight indention
and started the rivets but did not splinter the
wood behind the IRON solid 32-pounder
from the 81. Louis knocked out a riyet, but
did not penetrate. Many other heavy shots
struck, but made no impression. Those that
went over the target cut down cotton trte' Is

gunboats cannot be penetrated in the inside
unless through their portfolios. The rebels
of Columbus are in desperation, fearing an at
tack from our gunboats. They have sunk in
the channel, inst entering Columbus below heavy
scows and wharf boats loaded down with rocks.
They also have heavy chain cables stretched
across the river. They have left channel
enough for their gunboats to run through, but
il defeated submarine batteries are placed in
the deep part of the river, to be fred by gal
vanic batteries from their boats.

BURNsIDE's ExPEDITIoN.-The Washington
correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, says:
BURNsIDEs Expedition, which will probably
sail within the present week, will be followed
by the most important results. 1t is believed
here, in well informed circles that its successful
landing will be the signal for general advance.
But short time ago, Gen. MCCLELLAN in
quired of Gen. PORTER in what time he could
move. Being answered in twenty-four hours,
he rejoined that he "wshed the soldiers not to
be deluded into the belief that they were about
going into winter quarters, but to hold them
selves in readiness, as they would shortly move
forward" Since that time it has transpred
that orders have been given to move ria Deco
guam.
As the Burnside Expedition will probably as
cend the Rappahannock River, movement for
ward ria Occoquan, will compel the evacuation
of the rebel batteries on the Potomac and also
give us possession of the terminus of the Rich
mond railway, at Aqua Greek, and leave the
Confederaes at Manassas the choice of two
evils--o fall back on Richmond or he COM

Captain Samuel 7. Mitchell, OF the First Vir-

Mr. Thurlow Weed writes that he went out
Dec. 18th, by permission, to Pembroke Lodge
Richmond Park. the country residence of
Earl Russell, long so well known in America
as Lord John Russell, with whom he had an
interview Of an hour, relating, of course, to the
difficulties with this country. And though Mr..
Weed is not at liberty to give what was sand on
question as delicate as that now pending the
visit in other respects was an interesting one,
giving him, as il did, some knowledge of an
ennobed aud distinguished family. At the con-
clusion of his interview with the Earl. lunch
was announced, when they met lacy and Miss
Russell, with two sons (boys) and daughter
of eight years. Lunch (which, as Lord Byron
said of one of Mr.. Rogers Breakfasts, might

richer even in horticultural interest than in
embellishments or in views. Though moist
day, with an atmosphere to fit, yet in the opc-
nings her Ladyshp directed bis attention to
Hampton Court, Kew, Kingston, Windsor, &c.,
&C.. and to those localities made classic by the
reNdence of Pope, Horace Wolpole and other
literary celebrities. Passing a mound which
attracted his attention, her Ladyship drew him
to the point from which Henry VIII. stood
watching, through an avenue in the woods of
the Park, for a signal rocket to be fred from
the dome of ST. Pauls Church, announcing to
his wife numbering Majesty, that Anne Boleyn
was beheaded.

ton Of deafness for forty years, without any
cessation or change. son of this gentleman
Mr.. ID. +. Potter, labored hard under the
same maady, and his case was deemed heredi-
tary and therefore incurable. He was induced
however, to place himself under the treatment
of DIR. Lighthill, of this city, who completely
restored his hearing. The father followed the
example of the son, and the same good, but
more remarkable result ensu ID, and he now
hears as well as any one. This we regard as
an achievement of medical skill worthy Of COM

SPUNKY REBEL.-One of the prisoners
now at Fort Warren managed to escape about
the time they were sent here from Fort Lafay-
ett'. lie enlisted in the Navy under an as
sumed name in the hopes of being placed upon
vessel from which he could escape and Join
his friends at the South. Finding that his
chance of success in this project was small and
not wishing to serve against the Confederate
States, he revealed his true name, and the fact
that he had escaped from custody whereupon
was sent to Fort Warren. Col. Dimmick
had an interview with him, and told him that
he might have the same privileges as the other
prisoners, if he would give his parole of honor
not to attempt to escape again. The man
hesitated n moment and then frankly replied -
No, Colonel, cannot do it, il make the prom
Use | shall feel bound by it; hut really ! can
not consent to give up the right to escape il an
opportunity occurs" The Colonel told the
man that il he did not give his parole he should
put him where escape would he impossible but
he remained firm, and is now in close con-

Those official persons at Washington who
may hereafter extend public courtesies to DR..
Russell, correspondent of the London Times,
will forfeit all claim to courtesy from their own
countrymen. He has proved himself a gross
and wanton calumnator of our country, its
government, institutions and people, and de-
serves no higher position than the second table
in any genteman's dining room. The malig-
nifty of the creature is only equalled by his
mendacity, and he can only be rendered SEN
sible Of his impertinent intrusons and gross
insolence by the toe of boot or the complies
sion of his nasal organ between thumb and
finger.
