CouLps't GAS HIA.-A countryman
bought one Of those little colored balloon
balls, rs little Tommy would think SO much
Of it .or a play thing. But he didn' I
want the thing flying around in the way,
and so he proposed TO let the ar out and
blow it up when he got home. The re-
monstrance and remark of friend that
it was filed with gas. which caused it to
rise as it did, were unavailing-" he
wasn't to be gased in that way" We
strongly suspect that when he comes to
blow it up again little Tommy won't have
to hold it down with string, and Tom
my s daddy will believe there is some
thing ia gas after all.

Banks Expedition to Assist in Opening
the Mississippi.

A portion OF the vessels and troops attached
to General Banks expedition, on arriving at
New Orleans, proceeded Immediately up the
Mississippi and recaptured Baton Rouge. Tie
small rebel force thire retrpatsd on the appear
anee Of our troop. The rshels have fortified
Port Hudson, above Baton Rouge, and n severe
engagrmeRt lie expected there. Alter taking this
point the force ilproceed up the river even
60 far as FcksburT, against which an attrck
will probably be made in connection with
Admiral Porters feet and General Sherman's
expedition. Thus the movement for opening
the Mississippi is fairly iuaug rated.
From NJ mpbis we learn that a heavy Fed
eral force had assembled the Mississippi river
from New Orleans, the naval portion OF the
expedition bring under Admiral Faragut.
Port Hudson, which had been fortified by the
rebels, is said to have fallen int our hands,
and the feet had reached Il point twelve miles
below Vicksburg. This reported advance Is
confirmed by the Ficksburg Wing, Of the 20th
instant
A correspondent Of the New York Times,
accompanying the Banks expedition, says.
..It is 10 be hoped the authorities are fully
alive to the dinfculties we have to encounter in
this region. Incredible as it may seeIn-whiie
New York was in total Ignorance, and nobody
even on board of the North Star knew posi-.
lively where our destination was-the people
OF Baton Rouge have, for the last tAree scssks,
been constdnay Expecting tsith q large iand and
ndrdl force. The result il that Port Hudson
{miles up the liver from New Orieans) has
already become oris fast becoming as difi cult a
place as Vicksburg to take; and the troops they
have already concentrated there are variousiy
estimated at from ten to fifteen thousand men.
