The Chicago Tribune states that there is
good understanding between Gen'ls Hun.
tor and Lane, and that the Government and
General Lane have expressly deferred to
General Hunter Ms to whether ho would
tnke tho commend. Tho Tribune says:
In this connection it is proper TO say that
General Lane, when in this city, was asked
as 10 the probability Of General Hunters
taking command, and replied: that there
was work enough for both, indeed, too much
for one; and that he should prefer to be re-
lieved Of the thousand-aud. .one details that
must dcvolye upon the senior officer in or
der 10 devote himself more wholly to his
own command. He said there was the
most perfect accord between Geu. Hunter
aud himself aud that whether Gen. Hunter
took tho field or remained at Leavenwortb,
be had no doubt they would work harmoni-
onsly together for the success Of the expo.
dition. The fact therefore that Gen. Hun
Ter is to take command, seconded by such
officers as Lane, Jennison aud four others
like them, is encouraging Of the result.

Jack Scroggins, n negro slave, who gave
some valuable information to the Federal
troops when they secured the country in
the vicinity Of Port Tobacco, was subse-
quontly given up TO his master, man
named Samuel Cox, by an officer of the
Federal army Cox tied the poor fellow
to his horse and rode home--a distance Of
eleven miles--at a rapid rate. He then
called his overseer and another man to his
assistance, lasbed Scroggns to tree and
Aogged him to death the three taking
turns at the whip for three hours Cox is
full-blooded sccessionist, and previous to
the approach of the Federal troops had
raised company Of cavalry, with which
he intended to join the rebel army. The
command dispersed when the Federals ap-
preached, and the intelligence given by
the slave had reference to a large quantity
of arms and ammunition secreted in Cox's
house, and in an adjoining marshall Of
which were found and taken possession Of
by our troops. He received the "constitu-
tional" reward for his services, and what
patriot can object?

The New York Tribune gives the follow
ing delectable information:
1t is crebibly reported that Mr.. Henri Wikot
is about to proceed to Europe on confidential
mission of diplomatic nature from President
Lincoln and Mr.. Secretary Seward. He was
repeatedly employed on such service by Mr..
Buchanan and Gen. Cass, on one occasion hav-
ing even been sent to China as the bearer of inn
portant dispatches for the Court Pekin, which
could not be entrusted to the ordinary channels
of communication.
Wikof is disreputabe adventurer, who
some years since pursued an English woman
of property over Europe, and finally attempt
ed TO abduct her into Italy, for which he
was imprisoned. He aferward wrote a
book entitled my Courtsbip." He is an
attache or protoge ofthe N. Y. Herald, and
tho nation was robbed to pension him in
Buchanan's administration. His engage
ment by this administration would be about
as reputable as TO make the Herald the
family journal, aud domesticate the Bennett
family at tho White House. Cin. Gazette.
