cAxt sfAS wAtTos. KY, Sept "a, 1852.
ED1ToRs LEADER IL wrote you on the
morning Of Thursday, the 18th instant, at
which time we were preparing for an ad-
vance movement We did not get fairly
under way until toward evening, when we
found the whole brigade in motion, under
command of cur new Brigadier, General
Gilmore, the hero of Fort Pulaski, who, by
the way, is a native Of LOrain county,
Ohio. The brigade comprises the l0Sdl
the 1O4th Ohio, and the 18th and 22d Mich
igan, accompanied by battery of artil-
lery and a squadron of cavalry. What
other troops are with and near us, is not
for me to say, but let all be assured that
the army occupying northwestern Ken
tucky is capable of caring for itself Well,
we continued our march along the Lexing-
ton pike until Saturday night, when we
encamped beyond the town of Crittendeni
in Boone county. On Sunday morning
when we emerged from camp into the high
way we were profoundly astonishsd to see
the head of the column moving to the
northward. "This is a reconnaissance in
force, and now we return" was whisper
ed along the line, and a feeling of disap-
pointment settled upon the enthusiastic
army, so eager to go forward to meet the
foe.
Passing through the town of Crittenden,
where the evening before we had been
greeted with Union flags and joyous greet
ings, we now observed sad faces, and one
fair damsel sorrowfully said, "You were
more welcome yesterday" Others said,
"DOn't go back too far; the rebels viii
come again"
Onward moved the column until the
middle ofthe afternoon, when, having gone
twelve miles, and reached point thirteen
miles from Camp Mitchell, we bivOuacked
as we supposed, for the night. But here
we are still, and yesterday our tents and
camp equippage were brought US, and in
dieations now are that we are settled here
for q short time at least.
Colonel Easement is improving every
minute in drilling the regiment, and we
are beginning to feel very much like T cal
soldiers.
The health of the regiment is reasona-
bly, good, though a considerable number
are still suffering somewhat from our late
severe march.
Our camp is one and a half miles north
Of the village Of Walton, and sixteen miles
from Covington. Letters should be ad-
dressed to "1O3d Regiment, o. V. L, Gov
ington, Kentucky. To follow the regi-
ment."
Yours, d.

Cling gallantly against desperate odds, he
reached the ship, and was drawn up in
safety, but not before he had securely
lashed his fainting companion in the rope
that was thrown out to him. Deeds like
these 60 far to prove that Blondons is no
artificial courage"
HOW HE CANE TO CROSS NIAGARA.
At the completion Of an eight years en-
gagement, the Ravel family gave dinner
in Blondin's honor, and, elated by the tri-
butte paid to him, BlOndin, to use the ele-
CANT circumlocutiOn Of his biographer,
(says the Saturday Review INDUCED in
the pleasure of the table to an extent much
beyond his wont. Col to bed late, and,
perhaps-if one were to use plain English
-tipsy, Blondin dreamed dream which,
diyested Of the gorgeous coloring Of the
biographer, amounted to this-that he
crossed Niagara on a rope. The purpose
which suggested itself to him under the
influence of drink, he set himself soberly
and resolUtely to accomplish. We are told
that Blondon's hazardous vocation obliges
him to temperance, and that when he is
performing he drinks only a little ohoco-
nut IL ID Ouu AlIdb n44uh oAAouAh Ah'S
caused him to attempt that which absti-
nence was necessary to his achieving.
BLoNDoN IN ENGLAND.
Before Blondon went to England, he as
sociated himself with Mr.. Henry Coleman
as a business manager, who should negO-
tiate all engagements for him. Mr.. Cole
man made proposals to the Crystal Palace
Company, which were readily accepted.
One cautious director, indeed, remarked,
"But suppose ne was to fall?'' Fall "
echoed Mr.. Coleman; where from "
"Where from ?" repeated the other; ''why,
from the rope" "Blondin fall from the
ropel" exclaimed Coleman; "why, he
can't" 1t appears from this book, howev-
er, that through the awkwardness of an
assistant, Blondin did fall once, just as he
was stepping from his rope upon the plat
form. He saved himself by catching the
rope with his knee, and then got hold of
it with his hands.

The rebels are gathering a huge army

assembled, and are increasing their num-

their wants. That remains to be seen.

villains bowed down to our carbines, never
to plunder and pillage again this side of
Hades. Those carbines are wicked things
kill as far as you can see. This is the
unhealthy season. Chill fever, ague, and
sich like, are very prevalent; still, q
death in the regiment is one of the rarest
things imaginable. Recruits are arriving
every day from Wisconsin to fill up the

are here now, most of them waiting trans

One of the rebel prisoners, on being
taken to Washington, discovered his trusty
old slave Cesar among lot or fresh work
men for Uncle Sam, with big bundle on
his head. The ex-master aceosted him
with" Halo, you id black rascal !

recognizing his master as well as his own
peculiar situation, instantly unfolded an
extensive supply of ivories, and respond
ed-"Yes, massa, Tse come. When YOU

The telegraph announced on Thursday
that James Mason, of Ohio, was appoint
ed to the Consulship Of Rio Janeiro, y
made vacant by the resignation of Hon.
Richard C. Parsons 1t was generally
supposed, and believed, that this referred
to our esteemed felIow-citizen, James Ma
son, Esq, of this city. It turns out, how
ever, that the name was mis-speled, and
that it is the Hon. James Monroe, of Ober-
lin, who was appointed.
The many friends of Professor Munroe
will be rejoiced to hear of his being ap-
pointed to that important Office for a more
admirable selection could not have been
made. He has the advantage of being a
thorough scholar, finished gentleman, of
having cultivated mind of the highest
order, ripe experience as legislator,
and an extensive general knowledge of
the world; all tending to qualify him per-
fectly for his new position.
The only objection we have to the ap-
pointment of Prof Monroe, is that we
shall lose his valuable services in our Leg
Sslature But then that which will be our
loss, will be our cOuntry's gain. We con-
gratulate Secretary Seward for recommend
ing his appointment
If Mr.. Mason had been appointed, the
selection would have been equally as hap
py, for he is gentleman of the same stamp
ofProfessor Munroe. 1t is but justice to say
that Mr.. Mason was not an applicant for
that office.

The English press continue to speak of
the excitement produced among the cotton
manufacturers of the country, by the dis
eovery that jute can be spun, treated sue
cessfully, on cotton machinery, and an
swer the same purpose Of that staple
Thompson & Co, of Dundee, Scotland, have
effected this improvement Jute is a
6brOus material, described as grass it
grows in India, and is manufactured into
mats and carpets. In Dundee there are 70
mills engaged in spinning it. The raw
material, from India, has cost lis. per. cwt.,
but since the improvement the price Of it
has gone up fifty per cent. The fibre is
soft silky, and easily spun, but lacks
strength, and is liable to decay from damp
ness. 100000 worth of it is annually
exported to England, and the consumption
is estimated at 100000 bales, valued at
e20 each. 1t is made into bagging for cot
ton bales, and into coarse wrapping-paper.
The London Times says it has been used
in considerable quantities in the manufae-
ture of carpets for the American market,
and the carpets which are made of the ma
teriais are like shOddy clOth-good for
nothing.
