We.extract the following from q letter in the
Baton Rouge Advocate, from Capt. Taylor, one of
the editors Of that paper': z7.' s-s , .~ssa"l
,5. 49, p 29sfs15 CAMP BucksER, Dec 2s 1861.
:. Dear Advocate-Wh hen wrote my last, fully
expected that our regiment Wonld be on Green
river this in front Of the enemy, but the powers
that be have otherwise ordered, Our present
camp is located four miles from Bowling Green,
our men doing heavy picket duty and policing the
town besides, muchte their disgust apd indigna-
ton. This part Of the performance was not "put
down on the bills,H they say: we came here to
-fghtfor our country, and not to patrol a village
in search Of petty offenders against martial law.
Col. Seott's command has been assigned ao'G Gen..
Bnckner, after whom our camp is named: Capt
Williams Company left this morning for RUSSELL
vile, ac.ing ss escort to Gen. B. They took four
days' rations, whichI suppose indicates the dura-
ton of their stay. Capt. Williams has SO far re-
covered from his recent wound as to 60 about on
horseback His many friends will, no doubt, be
gratifed to hear such cheering news. t7%H@
The rumors from our lines near Green river are
so?loose and conflicting that they wi'l2not bear
repetition. The enemy have not advanced, and it
looks as though they don't intend to-. Persons,
purporting to have been near their camp, report
that they had jolly big " drunk" up there on
Christmas, when they guzzled down many bump:
ers to their own success over the "rebels," !" and
winding up with our annhi.a ion in some grand
imaginary battle which is yet to come off.
Reports to the Northern papers say that large
numbers Of the Kentuckians in the Federal ser
vice are mutinying and deserting, on account Of
Lincoln's late message and Cameron's report, re-
commencing emancipation. Hope the deserters
will all he caught and shot fer what business dif
the base wfetehez ever have III such service
The measles continue to affect our regiment
Yesterday morning prvates Hill, Sullivan and l.
Stevens, of Company B, were sent to cur private
hospital in town. All doing well. -
Aleck Huntstock, while on picket this morning
came near capturing Gen. Breckinridge. The
General was coming into town, had no pass moi
the countersign, and bad to come to a halt until
Sergeant Brooks arrived. The General compro
missed by writing himself pass and then pro
ceeded on his journey. Mrs. Breckinridge, the
estmable and accomplished lady of the General
has also arrived at Bowling Green from Lincoln
dom: 1t will be recollected that when her hus
band had to flee his home to escape the vulgal
despots clutches, Mrs. B. had to remain behind
Don't know whether she was conducted through
the Yankee lines or whether she ''ran the block,
ade." When halted by our pickets though she
told the boys that not of them would relish the
killing of a Yankee more than herself. f'

SAYING MEAT WITHOUT, Or WITH BUT LITTLE
SALT-Among the numerous divces which this
war has forced our people to resort to for supply
ing in part, at least, the privations onsequent
upon it, we notice one for obvatng the deficiency
OF salt 1t is with which all the old settlers Of
Texas are quite familiar, namely to dry our meat
as substitute for packing it down in salt. The
Mexicans of Texas have for many years past, per-
haps from the first settlement of the country been
in the habit Of cutting their meat into thin pieces
strips and drying it in the sum- more for the pur-
pose of rendering it more convenient to carry on
pose of saving salt. But both objects are equally
save meat by sun drying on account of the fre-
account Of the diminished heat Of the sun in the
wntermonths. The article which has called our
attention to this subject, recommends that the
meat, whether beef or pork, shall be cut in small
pieces and the bones generally taken ont when it
should be dried over wood coal fire, not over fire
made OF wood, because the vapor from the wood
fire connteracts the heat aud prevents the meat
from drying. The meat should be placed snff-
ciently high above the fire to prevent It from cook
ing, and should be rubbed over with little salt.
The writer of the article says the meat may be i'm
proved by smoking first in the usual way but it
must afterwards be placed the coal fire to dry
out the moisture. He processes to have tried it
with uniform success. The meat saved in this way
may not be quite as palatabe to some, but is per-
fectly sweet and nutricious. The question is not
how meat can be made most palatable, but how 1t
can be saved at all in the absence of sufcentsaft
to pack it. Galveston News

Beauty Of Bacon's Youth.

He won love and deserved to win it, for
even in the flush of life he had none Of the
vices Of young men. II weak on the score
of dress and pomp-ifhe dotted like girl on
flowers, on scents, on the trappings Of q
horse he neither drank, nor gained, nor
ran loose IN love. Though armed with the
most winning ways, and the most glazing
lip in London, no husbands peace was ever
hurt by him, no woman's fame ever drag
ged by him into the mire. He sought no
victories like those of Blount. He brought
no shame like Raleigh to the cheek Of one
who loved him more than her own name.--
No Lady Rich, as in Sidney's case, ever
B.ushed when he was nanlsd."
His life was pure as that Of Milton, or
that of the Penses, he lived in court where
gallantry was in vogue, and beauty bought
and sold. How then with all these claims
on love and help, did he not win his way to
place? He sought it never man with
more haste and zeal, for his brain beat with
victorious consciousness of power he hung
cred to rule mankind:and his blood had that
fiery strength which glows into white heat
at an opposing blast. This question must
be tried. Why, while men, with far lower
claims that have got posts and honor, solicit
torships, secretaryships, embassies, did this
man come to pass the ripe age Of forty-six
without gaining power or place Can it
have been because he was not servile and
corrupt? Ifso, logic is life, and moral
theories sham.

THE HEROES OF THE NORTH.
BY WALTER ANoNYx.


Meath Bunkers glory circled crown
The claris n waileth loud;
And Columbia's Eagle woopeth down
From his eyrie in the cloud.
On Lexington's historic plain,
The warning note is heard,
And the pu lse, which long had slumbering lain
To its ancient throb Is stirred.
Old Concord's shaft is bracing now
To meet the deadly shock.
And prayer-ke doth the record show
On Plymouths sacred rock.
The spectre gun of oiden time
The rank and file awakes,
And booming comes the thrilling chime
Re-echoing from the lakes.
We need no tap of conscript drum
To fill our ranks to-day,
For sordid hirelings hither come
To des secrate the fray.
They gather in from far and wide,
The farmer drops his fail,
The scholar throws his book aside,
The fisher furls his sail.
The holy man his pulpit yields,
And, at his country's word,
Girded with Christian armor, wi elds
Gideon's anolnted sword.
From every class, from every trade,
The cry Is still 1--WE come!"
While the widowed wife and weeping main
Keep prayerfal fast at home.
where'er o 'er hill side, vale or glen.
The Stars and Stripes appear,
You may list to the hurried tramp Of men
And the shout of the Volunteer.
Upon our 'scutcheon not one bolt,
No cancer in the field
The glorious past must be forgot
Before the North can yield.
Then here's to the heroes Of the North,
rhe gallant, patriot band;
Who pouring their hearts red fountain forth
To redeem their Native Land
