Thompson, few miles below Friar's
Point, on. the river 1t was so situated
that it could not be defended by the par

partisans secured few Of the horses'and
mules, which were reported by Mr..
Thompson, but the balance, with all the
negroes, were taken of some weeks
since. Last week considerable force was
engaged in gathering the corn crop
from eight hundred to one thousand
acres-and in Strengthening the cattle and

BGA correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Inquirer, with the army of the Po-
tomac, relates the following extraordi-
nary-almost ineredible-case of the re-
covery of rebel soldier of the 10th Mis-
sissippi, named William Kidd, from a
wound that, apparently, would have
killed grizzly bear:
He received gun shot wound through
the face, and laid on the battle field Two
days and one night before he was picked
up. The ball, supposed to be a grape
shot, entered the right cheek bone and
came out Immediately opposite, fractur-
ing said bone, carrying away the upper
portion of the muscles Of the face on both
cheeks, the entire nose, the right eye, and
the superciliary ridge, and, also, the en-
tire bony casing of the eye. The upper
jan fell dorm OUer the IO,cer jar and
chin, learing has paIate and throat err
posed The rebel surgeons pronounced
this case hopeless; but under the medi-
cal skill of our surgeons the man is now
so far recovered as to walk the streets of
Sharpsburg to-day.

Dispatches from Columbus, o., where
General Wallace has for some time past
been "shelved" for his long and honora-

the command of the army at Corinth, re-
Gently under General Rosecrans, If so,
he will be in, Grants Department, but in
command, as Rosecrans was, of sepa-
rate army corps, which viii give him no
inconsiderable discretion in its manage

signed to division in McClernand's
new expedition to the Mississippi river,

Athentic, and we have little doubt that he

In a recent demonstration of the Sey-
mour Democracy of New York, which
corresponds exactly with the Bright De-
mocracy of this State, prominent and
houored leader, one Luke F. -Cozens,
made the following remark: " Hl
Let every one next Tuesday deposit
his ballot for Horatio Seymour. Elect
him, and they would elect statesman, a
Christian, patriot, beloved and honor
ed everywhere South, by God as well
as North. Cheers They would have
a statesman who would throw on the
South a CLEAN Of hope" ~
No comment is needed. The men
whose candidate is beloved and honor
ed by rebels armed TO destroy the Gov
eminent, and whose success would
throw a CLEAN of hope" on the rebel
cause, are no fit associates for loyal men.
Ten thousand volumes could not prove
more forcibly the infinite degradation to
which the success of such men must
drag the nation down. Happily the great
body of the party is not tainted with the
rottenness of these vile leaders and trait

Four hess8es, four eoGnns, each con-

arms reversed-a long train of carriages

Such was the spectacle presented to the
crowds Of citizens who lined the side
walks yesterday afternoon-such were
the funeral honors paid to four brave
and patriotic men who poured out their
lives on the bloody fields. of Antietam and
the Hatchie.
1t is fitting that such honors should be
] paid to the heroic dead-that brave men
should thus be borne to their last resting
place
Lieutenant E. E. Ballenger, Sergeant
Frank O'Byrn, Edwin Kennedy, of the
18th Indiana, who fell at Antietam, and
Lieut.. Spencer Webster Of the .25th Indi,
ana, who fell at the Hatchie! Such will
be the brief history that will point out to
future generations the spot where the
fallen heroes lie. To all it will be a
lesson, teaching the wickedness of trea-
son, and the worth of our country. And
all over this broad land, countless thou
sands of these silent but impressive
monitors will be found in the North and
in the South in the East and in the

THE GREEN RIVER COUNTRY. The |
Louisville journal in detailing the con-
dition Of the Green River country for the |
last year, and showing the ineficieney of
military authorities in defeating the plans
of the rebels says 21e --1- f13t- .
We make no complaints, for Colonel
Bruce will now have an adequate force
assigned to him, and General Rosecrans
perfectly comprehends the position of
the much neglected Green River coun-
try. The guerrillas must and will be
driven from the region, for men of nerve
and energy will be placed on their track
to hunt them down. When once the
country is clear of these large bands, the
gap through which they pass must be
closed, which can be done by establish
ing a post midway between Russelville
and GAINESVILLE, say ateAllensville on the
Memphis Branch road, and one. regiment
can hold in check all rebellion to the
Ohio river. Let this post be command
ed bya Kentuckian, who Will not have to
spend months in learning the geography
Of the country and the sort of men with
whom he will have to deal. Then loyalty
will be protected and treason punished as
they deterve Then the Green River
country will be re-opened to the arts of
peace, and its long suffering people will
again realize the blessings OF law aud or
der. ~| &E
We agree with the journal that Gen.
Rosecrans perfectly comprehends the
position of the. much neglected Green
River country" and think it very pro5a-
] Bile that he VIII take efficient steps to
free it from the dominion of. rebel horse
/ thieves. But why did not Gen. Buell.,
I who has had so'much to do in Kentucky,
comprehend the situation of the Green
RiEer-country and take efficient meas
ures to protect ita2ITNEU
We hope the Journal is beginning to
see that Gen. Buell., Notwithstanding his
magnificent abilities in organizing and
disciplining troops, lacked one essential
!, element OF great, general-energy in
execution.
We hardly agree with the Journal that
! the command of the post, the establish
