The EEEMT's PLAN II REGARD TO SA-
yANNAH.-A New York paper Of the 39th U.5i
in giving some late news from Port Royal, says,
1t IS understood that the plan Of cnDt-ring 81
courses leading into the Savannah river has been
abandoned, for the reason that Fort Jackson,
whick lies between our batteries and the city,
cannot be safely attacked with the small boats
which can be got through tie passes. 1t is
deemed absolutely essential that the larger craft
should assist in the fight when all the prepara-
tions have been made
Meanwhile our forces are not idle There IS
reason to believe that an important work, which
he's been long tune in progress, is on the eve Of
aceomF Flshment. We are not at liberty to give
details.

BOYS IN BATTLE.-The Memphis cores
pondent Of tho Richmond Disyqtck thus alludes
to the conduct OF the boys in our army at the
battle of Shiloh
Great surprise was manifested by the prison.
ers at the number of boys and small men in our
army, and one Of them remarked that 4" for little
fellows they fought like the ID" Somebody
asked him what ne thought Of the battle general
ly. Well" said he, " if you'd stuck to us three
hours more Abe Lincoln might have called his
roll in h-ll, and he wOuldn't have found one of
rs missing
Speaking of boys, it Is aot less tue than re
markable that large proportion Of She army is
composed of such material And thoy make the
best soldiers. They fight with Uim and daring,
and, what Is better shIl, never know when they
are whipped One young Kentucky lad Of fl
teen, whom remember, fought sll day in ed
vance Of his regiment, aud never Tetreated
Taking his position behind trees, and creeping
from bush to bush, he kept up steady fire from
his rife, until he had expended forty Cartridges
and then robbed the body Of Yankee for a fresh
supply. His clothes were absolutely cut to
pieces, and yet, with the exception Of a slight
scratch on the arm, he escaped without a wound.

FASHIONABLE HOURs IN EUROPE.-A Paris
letter in one Of the late European papers, the
London Globe, dated on the 9TH of April, says
For the present every one here belonging to
the upper masses seem to be bent upon pursuing
round Of dissipation too fatiguing to be socis-
bic. The Countess Persigny has brought in,
by giving her last ball at midnight a fashion in
a fair way Of being widely adopted, as well as
one that will make the sOeiability of the bril-
liant world more life-consuming than it ever has
been SOirees now commence long after ten,
private concerts at about seven, and balls at
twelve When they end may easily be inferred
from the time Of their beginning. The wearing
effects of such unnatural hours on the eonstitu-
ton are warded off by the ladies, and, indeed
often by gentlemen, in a manner so ingenious
that it deserves to be recorded. Dinners are
ordered half an hour earlier than they are usu-
ally served, and instead eff being finished at
haltpast seven or eight, are over at seven and
half-past seven, SO that persons Of quality can
go to bed and have a long sleep before they
dress to 60 out at midnight"

as possible.
Gen. Roane is looked for here hour
ly. McCleilan's whole army has
surrendered to Gen. Lee.
Have the cavalry forwarded as soon
as possible, little delay, and all is lost
to US, and you. Should they get
here, they will proceed to your place
without delay. Yours
&. II. MORRISON
