INCREDIBLE.

Would anybody believe there existed an
individual in this city SO deeply verdant as to
refuse specie 3 We can hardly conceive Of
such thing in these times; and yet it Is
true. The particulars Of the incident ws
arc about to relate came to us from one OF
our most reliable business men, and may bs
relied upon as strictly and literally true.

.p CALIFORNIA JoE.---Mr. Truman Head
whose exploits as a shar pshooter have attain.
ed him wide celebrity in the army, where he
Is known as California Joe, is now on his
way home to California, on furlough. His
right eye has become SO much impaired by
the use of the telescope rife, that a, brief
rest is necessary, He is one of Berdan's
sharpshooters, and during the campaign on
the Peninsula was constantly employed, us
ing his rifle with almost mathematical precis-
ion. His plan Of operations was TO take his
food with him in the morning, and seek a
favorable position, from which he would
shoot during the entire day, only ceasiRg at
night, after closing the existence Of the reb
els on whom he could draw bead. Recently.
while thus engaged, his rifle was struck by
a ball, which glanced and scraped his nose
and cheek, but doing him no further injury.
BY the advice Of physician, he has, for the
present, retired from active duty, having re-
ceived brief furlough, at the expiration of
which he will resume his services.

MOVEMENT OF TRooPs.-A gentleman at
Cairo informs US that between IS 700 and
10000 soldiers have passed dowr. the river
within the last two weeks Those going down
during last week went to Memphis and Hell,

1t is now understood that Gen. Sherman

that the report that the new troops now 90

IN its military selections and arrangements.
There are four Major Generals of the regular

ocrats, and Fremont. Republican, are retired
from command. Burnside, Major General of
Volunteers, the successor Of Mcclellan, is
democrat. Schenck, who is to have com.
mand in Wool's stead at Baltimore, and Nor.
ris, who temporarily holds the position arc
democrats. Dix, commander of the Depart
ment of Eastern Virginia, is democrat
Hunter, just ordered back to the Department
OF the South, is democrat Butler, who
commands the Department of Louisiana, is
democrat. Buell. recently removed from
the Cumberland Department, is a democrat,
and so also is Rosecrans his SUCCESSOR
Gen. McClernand, of the new Department of
Mississippi, Is democrat General Wright,
OF the Department of Kentucky and Ohio, is
democrat. Gen. Pope, of the DEPARTING
