AT the battle of Mil Spring, when
Gen. Carter (who isa dashing hero, no,
led alike for his BRAVERY and his piety)
had formed his brigsdeln batlle.Iinc, he
said to them, "now boys, keep cool, take
deliberate aim, and giss The rebels"-
While Gen. Ciret was thus pansing,
Gen Spears redoalST can speak the
balance, boys, giF5 81 particular hi

We soy got spsSss. Laalsinger
from Knox county, who. on that occe-
sion, became SO patdaicaIly enraged,
that he could no, wuitpr orders, when
the rebel lines were made visible, SO he
moved on to them, with bis old mlsket,
lonliog and frejng into them, as he
went. He is ono of six brothers, all in
the Union army.
Aljulant Gen. Trewitt, Of Gen, Spears
Staff, was previous TO ihe war, distin-
guishel member of the Cleveland bar,
and is brave and popular officer We
knew him in our boyhood (lmjliarly as
"Dan. TrcwiIt."

SON sons of the two immortal Tennes.
see patriots are viii this brigade. =
They are of good stock. and are brave
ard talented young pen.
The Tennessee boys, are violent
against those pseudo Democratic, rai'
tors at the North, who are staying at
home, trying to vote the government
down, and are doing verifying in their
cowarjly nights to tp'n our government
over into the hands ofthe rebels. 1t is
time, now, FOR those Tnilor.crats to know
that the loyal Tenness,eans dcspise them
as much as they do any of the rest of
jeff. Davis tools, ant that they don't
thank them for any tf their pretended
sympathy for them. They can easily
tell their friends from heir enemies.
They are now on th'ir way back to
East Tennessee, as weuuierstond We
warrant that after the, have been back
lrerc month, you cannot md IN all
that country, rebels hide that would
hold "shu,ks." Diem qaod semitic.
