and his merits known TO comparatively few, they
were none the less strongly developed. He was an
old citizen Through all the years Of his residence
among he has been known publicly an industrious
honorable and liberal merchant To those who en-
joyed a more ultimate acquaintance with the dc
ceased his excellent qualities OF head aud heart
we're better known Socially he was one OF the most
agreeable compartment and his well stored mind was
always the source Of abundant entertainment 90 bis

kind and afectionate, To all public and private
charities he was among the most liberal contributors

CAIRO, June 6-Three distinct shocks of
an earthquake were felt here to-day, IL was
also felt at several different points near, and
as far as Urbana. No damage was done as
far as ascertained.
There is set some doubt that the feet have
passed Fort Randolph, where the rebels, il is
said, have taken the guns which we're remov.
ed from the fort above. They left five or six
guns Before leaving they destroyed the
barracks, camp equipage, gun carriages, aud
military stores as they could not be trans
ported. They also burned the eaffnn Of
which the breastwogks were made. The 10

Forty.sxth Indiana regiment
Col. Fitch, who now occupies the works
which are said to be OF great strength il pro
perly manned-could have successfully re-
sisted large force.
The rebels, after leaving the fort, destroyed
the pontoon bridge which they bad made
some weeks since over Hatchee river.
When the De Sofa, which last arrived from
the f4et lett the fort, the gunboats had
passed the fort and gone down the river.
1t is reported that the rebels have evac.
uated Fort Randolph. II this is the case
there is nothing to prevent the feet from ar
irving at Memphis to-day.
The Memphis Avalanche, of the I'd inst,
says that large part of the army at Cor
inth we're sent to Richmond and are now
opposed to the Yankees there.

Two deserters just in report General Joe

General G. w. Smith is now in command.
Other information corroborates this: also
that the rebel loss is estimated at 10, 900 kill
ed, wounded, and missing.
No material change has occurred in the
enemy's position.
A contraband who left Richmond yester-
day says the city lie 10 a terrible state of con-
fusion. No troops were in the city except
those doing guard duty. There are no signs
Of evacuation, but on the contrary, every
thing shows an intention to make a deter
mined resistance.
The house tops in Richmond were crowded
on Sunday. the people expecting our troops
would b. driven into the Chickahominy, but
when they saw the rebels run, the greatest
CONSERVATION prevailed.
1t is rumored that Magruder has become
disguised, and intends resigning.
Information has been received that there
are no rebel troops between the RappahaH-
mock and the Army of the Potomac.

We have received several numbers of a
little sheet, called the Seventh Brigade
Journal, printed at Columbia by the prin-
ter soldiers of the Wisconsin and Penn
sylvania Regiments of the Seventh Bril-
gade in that town. 1t is we'll gotten up,
and shows that these boys know how 10
use all sorts of shooting sticks" We
copy some interesting items from its
pages:
Several days previous to the meeting
held here on Monday, the grapevine y
line did a heavy business. Dispatches
were sent out all through the country,
from the office in Columbia, warning the
people not to come in to the meeting, as
the "Federals" had a trap set for them
II was the intention of the Yankees to
let them come into the town with
out pass, and not TO allow one to pass
out until he had taken the oath of allie
glance. And, besides, they had received
information to the effect that there would
be an attack on the town during that
day by their men.
The telegraph wire between here and
Pulaski has been cut three or four times
within the past three days. 1t was pro-
badly done by some of the secesh inhab-
itants on the line. These despicable
wire cutters and bridge burners should
be punished without mercy.
Our pickets out On the Pulaski dirt
road were fred upon, and driven in, on
Sunday night last. The pickets, caval-
rymen, were out about four miles from
town, and they heard the horses as they
came up, and heard the command of the
enemy given to halt A minute after
four men came up on foot and fired on
our men, when they came in and gave
the alarm. A force was sent out there,
but nothing was seen.

Another victim to disease contracted
in this unnatural war is announced this
morning under our obituary head. HEN
RY CLAY, the grandson Of him who was
more beloved in this country than any
man except GEoRaE WAsHEGToN, and
the son of him who gave up his life on
the field Of Buena Vista in maintaining
the honor of his country, died yesterday
Of typhoid fever contracted in the camp,
where he had served with distinguished
zeal and gallantry as an aide 10 General
r. w. JOHNSON, in putting down the in
surrection, which bold, bad men, under
the guise of patriotism, have forced upon
portion of the American people. With
all the noble impulses of his immediate
progenitors, and deeply imbued with that
patriotic devotion TO Che Union which
was their distinguishing Characteristic,
he drew his maiden sword when the
effort was first made TO force Kentucky
into the secession ranks. Disdaining the
circean lures and uninaueuced by the
specious sophistries which were thrown
around him TO dazzle his judgment, he
saw clearly the path Of duty, and, with
all the vigor Of his young and ardent
soul, he entered upon its performance.
His was not a soldiers death upon the
battlefield, but his epitaph will be as
proud a one as if he had died beneath
the folds of his country's flag and amid
the shock of arms. When the sad tidings
came from the far off plains of Buena
Vista that told the fate of beloved son,
the Sage of Ashland was alive to hear
the intelligence and receive the sympa-
thies of sorrowing friends, while the
knowledge that his child had died the
death of patriot brought consolation to
his aged heart. In the far off "undis-
covered country" where he now learns of
the death of his grandson, martyr to
the hottest cause in which man has ever
drawn a sword, how will his spirit cling
TO the golden memory that another of his
descendants has indicated the honor of
his nation at the expense of his life.
Glorious grandsire, chivalric son and
gallant grandchild, how fitted to bear the
same name and that the name Of HENRY
CLAY! Let us thank God that amid
treachery and deceit and madness there
has been no speck upon that loved name,
and that Kentucky and the world can
still speak it with pride and reverence.

Some days ago Mr.. MORRIS HUSKY
got a permit from Provost Marshal, Col.
MATTHEWS, to take $500 worth of Dry
Goods to DeKalb county on taking the
oath and giving bond. His teams were
so heavily loaded that it excited the sus-
picions of the picket, who overhauled the
load and found double the quantity of
goods for which the permit was granted,
together with a considerable quantity of
drugs, amounting perhaps to $500 or more.
The contraband dealer will suffer for his
conduct.

Delaware.

Senator BAYARD, of this State, has for
some time been suspected of sympathiz-
ing strongly with the rebel party. In a
speech the other day he made this con-
fession, which is a notable one for one OF
his views.
In the State of Delaware / admit that
slavery does not exist as available source
of property. admit unhesitatingly that
if tomorrow we could substitute for the
negro population of Delaware, slave and
free, the same number of white men, or
half the same number of white men, and
get rid Of the inferior race, our wealth
would be quadrupled.
