"The Combat Deepens.

Taking a thoughtful perusal Of our Ia
test telegraphic news, we are inclined TO
think that the son to Richmond F" has
commenced in earnest, and that our read
ers may look for astounding intelligence
from the Potomac within the next ten
days. But don't look for any moro Bull
Run affairs. Our opinion of events to
come is just this, that in accordance with
the quietly concocted and deep laid plans
of our military leaders, the rebellion is
Just on the eve Of receiving its death blow,
and that the last head of the hydra mon
star is TO be severed from its writhing
body, and at the ides of March, the gov
ernment will rejoice and the people shout
for JOY that the constitution and the laws
are once more established over anarchy
and confusion. Are We too sapguine p
Are we hoping too muchl What means
the advance of the Grand Army into
Virginia with power that all Rebeldom
is as Intellectual to stop as the puny arm
of men the advance of the mighty whirl-
wind.
What means the evacuation of Colum-
bus, so admirably fitted by nature for a
stronghold, and so strongly fortified by
the most effectual barriers that military
skill could devise3 What means the ter
rible CONSERVATION that has so suddenly
seized the foe throughout all their borders
that they melt away before our armies,
and that causes the knees of their leaders
to become weak and smite together like
those of Belshazzer of old when he was
weighed in the balance and found want
ing" and his kingdom snatched from
him? Is not similar destiny about to
visit treason, so long enthroncd as the rul-
ing element in so large portion Of our
fair domain9 Law and order are to as
sumo the throne, and but few days,
or weeks at most, will pass, we opiuc, be-
fore bonlires, Examinations, and the roar
of cannon will greet the auspicious event.

THE w AR.

Accounts from Cairo, both by the way
Of Chicago and ST. Louis, agree in the
statement that bright light as of con-
fagration was seen Sunday night in the
direction of Columbus, that leaves little
doubt that the town and everything in
hamable around it were consumed.
The Lynchburg Virginian says the
sick at Centrevile have been sent to the
rear, and the army placed under march
ing orders.
The gunboats Tyler and Lexington were
fired upon by rebel battery eight miles
above Savannah, on the Tennessee River,
few days since. The battery was soon
silenced, and party landed, but, meeting
superior force, retired to the boats.-
We lost one killed and three missing.
jeff. Thompson having marched out of
New Madrid to attack our forces, an ex-
pedition was sent out from Birds Point
that put him to route near Sykeston,
drove him into the swamps, and captured
six pieces of his artillery.
The President has designated Hon.
Andy Johnson rs Brigader General,
and he proceeds TO Tennessee to open a
military provisional government for Ten
nessee, until the reconstruction of the civil
government.
A dispatch was received from Como
dore Foote saying that Lieutenant Phelps
sent with flag Of truce to Columbus,
has returned and reports Columbus being
evacuated. He saw the rebels burning
their winter quarters, and removing the
heavy guns on the bluffs, but leaving
those in water batteries.
Gen. Buell. telegraphed to Gen. Nc
Clellan that the rebels had abandoned
Murfreesboro, and are in full retreat to-
wards the Tennessee River. Crossing
this river will place them in Alabama and
free Middle Tennessee Of every armed
rebe force.

a word in time.

The two companies last raised in this
place are now off for the war. Many of
them have left families dependent on them
for asupp0rt, and the probe lilities are they
will receive but little from the State in the
way of monthly bounty, as was expected
The failure Of the Legislature to provide
the means for meet'n g the payments, viii
compel them to wait at least until nearly
Spring before much can be expected.
Very many Of our citizens are both able
and willing to contribute towards the sup
port Of those in need Something should
be dore at once in the way Of providing
the means for rendering such assistance
as NAV be needed The families Of those
who have given themselves to the service
Of their country should not be left to want
FOR the necessaries Of life, neither should
they feel that they are burden upon the
community. \ subscription payable in
small monthly installment5 should be cir
culatad that the means may be at hand
when needed Let it be attended TO at
once, and let not the families of cur brave
volunteers want for such support as may
be necessary.
