H All the valuable information re-
ceired By our troops in regard to the
movements of the enemy has been brought
by contrabands.
1t was contraband who came in full
tilt and warned Banks troops that the
enemy were at hand, just in time for them
to put themselves in order of battle and
thus saved them from complete surprise
and general massacre.
Banks will hardly send that contraband
back to bis rebel master as other Generals
of the army might have done.

A SINGLE GUINEA. - Bob Mitchell,
who was once in great prosperity, became
like great many other people-one OF
Sheridan's creditors in fact, Sheridan
owed Bob nearly three thousand pounds.
This drove him to great straits, and one
day, in his uncomfortable wanderings, he
called upon Sheridan. The conversation
turned upon his financial difficulties, but
not upon the principal cause Of them,
which was Sheridan's debt, but which he
contrived to keep out Of the talk. At last
Bob, in sort Of agony, exclaimed
~ have not guinea left, and, by
Heaven l don't know where to get one. -
Sheridan jumped up, and thrusting a
piece Of gold into his hand, exclaimed,
with tears in his eyes
!" 1t never shall be said that Bob Nil
chell wanted guinea while his friend
Sheridan had one to give him.

of the Secretary of War. Gen. sigel has
been basely treated ever since pro, slave

because he is a foreigner who has dis.
tinguished himself in the field, and is
true to the principles of Liberty and I'm
ion. The public will be astenished To
learn that he has been gougcd out of his
command, when his talents and services
are SO much needed at Corinth. His re-

and assigned to others, and on his reeov-

condemn this project, and charge those who ad-
