FROM TENNESSEE, ALABAMA, DC.

+ RON TENNESSEE, ALABAMA, &c.
The rebels appear unusually active in
the south west. and if rebel reports are to
be believed, we have met with some trifling
reverses in that quarter. The present de-
monstrations appear to be chiefly aimed
at Gen. Buells corps, which is in Northern
Alabama. Bragg is known to have large
force. is believed to be moving towards
Buell., and the secessionists in Memphis
express confidence that he will achieve a
victory. At the same time, Memphis has
had one or two scares from reports that
Bragg was moving on that city, and n
city, and on Sunday he was reported but
8 miles of. Scouting parties, however,
soon ascertained this to'be false alarm,
and the belief is confirmed that Bragg is
after Buell.
Polk is said to be on his way to Pulaski.
which is on the Nashville and Decatur
Railway, with 10000 men.
Price is left in command in Mississippi
Preston King has been in North Ala
bama some time, with lO, 900 men, and he
is probably joined by Polk.
All communication between Memphis
and Corinth, except by way of Cairo, is cut
off by the guerillas. as we'll as between,
Corinth and Buell. Communication how
ever, is kept open between Buell. and
Nashville, where Gen. NelsonFs establish
ed with his division.
Gen. Curtis and Com. Davis are at Cairo,
to be in telegraph communication with
Halleck and consult as to future move
ments of the fleet and Gen. Curtis column.
The Ilth Ill Regiment is also at Cairo,
and Col Ransom has taken command of
that post in the absense of Gen. Strong.
Gen. Curtis appears to be in bad odor,
and there are reports that he will be re
moved from his command

FROM CHARLESTON, &c.

Since the abandonment of the expedi-
ton by Gen. Hunter against Charleston,
that Gen. appears to be wholly absorbed
with the business of drilling his negro re.
giment. The rebels at Charleston feel SO
easy about him that they have sent nine
to Richmond, while they are finishing two
iron steamers like the Merrimac to destroy
the blockaders. Several vessels from Eng
land having run the blockade with rebel
supplies, our feet in that quarter has been
largely augmented. The Nashville is cor
nered in Daboy Sound, with the Paul
Jones and Keystone watching her.
The rebels are also said to have nearly
completed formidable iron clad steamer
at Savannah, with which they say they will
clear out the river.

The same night another large force was
pushed forward to Malvern Hill, driving
away several rebel regiments posted there,
and repossessing that position. The
country in the neighborhood was closely
recommended, to within 10 miles of Rich

FROM GEN. PoPE's Army.

Gen. Popes head quarters and the main
part of his army appear to be at Sperry.
Vile, some % miles north of Gordonsville.
He is daily sending out scouts through
the country, but they encounter no euemy
in force north Of Gordonsville. At the
latter place, however, and at Standard
vile, the rebels are reported to be in large
force, and make no secret of declaring
their intention first to whip Gen. Pope.
and then fall on Mcclellan, or, as others
say, rush into Maryland, Gen. P. is daily
arres.ing numbers of the residents and
compelling them either TO take the oath
or migrate. Large numbers ofcontrabands
aresalso falling into his hands. The rebels
appear to have wholly abandoned the
Shenandoah Valley.

cases of remarkable escape from living
burial are related as having occurred sub
sequent to the battle of Fair Oaks. The
body of D colonel was found on the field
and brou ghtin. Arrangement were made
for embalming it. The process includes
tho use of galvanism. The shock was
given. To the establishment of all the
colonel rose and walked forth. The other
case was also that of colonel who was
found dead on the field. In Difference to
his rank he was brought to the hospital
and laid among the dead. His friends
prepared to give him decent burial, and
were about to carry the body ont, when
the colonel rolled over, and in tones more
like those of man drunk than dead,

THE INJURY TO MNING.-It was not in the
valleys only that the recent great storm did
injury to the people. The gold mining opera
tions in the middle and northern counties were
vastly and ruinOusy affected the ditch men
were generally subjected to greater losses than
they had ever before sustained, and every
description of mining claims was rendered capa-
BILE of yielding but little more than detrment to
their workers. Hitherto the rainy season brought
blessings to the miners in its first storms, and we
oil said that the unpeasantness of long rains
could be gratefully endured inasmuch as they
would benefit the miners, upon whose toll and
success depended the various successes of the
State. Hitherto the first, and even all, of the
winter storms threatened and slightly injured
low country property. This year the rains and
SHOWS of the mountains suddenly combined to
pour a terrible flood over and into the mines
But who knows but that the extraordinary tur-
moil of waters may have been a good means OF
turning miners to the discovery and development
of the mines which will ufuse into them more
