WAR ITEMS

The gallant Brig. Gen Schupf who led
our forcas to the defeat of Zollcofrer's rebels,
is a Hungarian refugee, Of social and militia
ry distinction lie had been employed for
several years in the patent office at Washing
ton. When Mr.. Holt was transferred TO the
war department, he took SchepG with him.
An important survey in Virginia CHANGED to
be needed, and SchupH was intrusted with
it. This brought him under the eye of Gen.
Scott, and his military education and acquire
ments were for the first time brought 20 light.
Thenceforward his rise was sure He con-
tinued to be employed on important business
in the war department till educated officers
began to be demanded for our volunteers,
when he was appointed a bigidier general
and sent to protect the state Of his benelac-
tor from invasion.
Gen. Zollicofer, who has fallen in an in
glorous cause. for which he could have no
real sympathy, has been well known as
printer and editor, and a Union member of
Congress from Tennessee. When it became
evident that the rebellion would gain the up
per hand in Tennessee, he plunged into the
current, and has since been prominent rebel
In September last he was made a brigadicr
general, and sent into East Tennessee as COM
mandcr ia that department, where he did very
much to crush out or stiae the hitherto over
whelming Union sentiment lie had good
military capacity, and his death is a severe
loss to the rebels
There is little that is good to say Of the
late ex-president John Tyler. lie was born
in Virginia in 1890, and has been in public
life since the age Of 2l, as member Of Con-
gress, governor OF Virginia, vice president,

COFFEE RAISING IN ILLINoIs.-Illinois
seems to be semi-tropical State Besides
the culture Of sugar and cotton, the agricultur-
lists Of Illinois are turning their attention to
coffee which is said to have been grown there
successfully. George R, Hoffman, who resides
at bingham, on the Illinois Central Rail
road, receiveda few seeds ofcoffee. three years
SINCE from his son in Australia; these he
planted, and the past season produced two
bushels of ripe coffee, the quality of which is
said TO be excellent. He estimates the yield
at thirty bushels per acre. Thus far the plant
appears to be hardy, and promises to be pro-
ductiye. Saveral parties in bingham coun-
ty are parparing 20 enter on its culture. The
plant comes into bearing the second year, and
the third year it produces pretty fair crop.
With these facts before them, the State Agri-
cultural Society has offered premiums for llli-
nois grown coffee

STORY or A BRAVE OLD KENTUC-



a correspondent Of the Louisville Demo-
crat tells the story Of brave Kentuckian
named Andrew Jackson Cannon, who is do
ing loyal service in that state -" It seems
that Squire Carmen took a very active part
in favor Of the Union cause in Cumberland,
(his county Monroe and Metcilf counties
last summer and fall, captured some twenty
head Of contraband mules and several horses,
and had a hai d in bringing to a boat on Cum
bcrland river engaged in the contraband bu-
sincss-in a word, Squire Cannon was a ter
ror to the secesh generally in that locality,
rendering himself obnoxious TO their blood
thirsty procivites. Some ten or fifteen days
since Squire Carmen learned that his family
we're all down sick with the measles, and de-
termned TO visit them, cost what 1t might
So he obtained furlough from his gallant
colonel under protest that he (Garmon) would
never return to his regiment. The first or
second night after his arrival at home the
secesh, his old neighbors and relatives, TWEEN
ty-eight strong, armed cdp-d pie, visited his
house and raped at his door. The Squire
hailed them no answer. lie sprang out Of
bed, gathered his irons, and lighted a candle,
when he discovered three men ia his DINING
room, and fred at them They all scampor-
ed out of the house, one falling dead at the
door The captain then ordered him to come
out which he refused 20 do, and in turn in
vitcd them to come in and exchange bullets
there. This they declined to do, and imme-
diately opened fire on his house through the
doors aud windows, the Squire returning the
fire as fast az he could. This was kept up,
the Squire thinks about one hour. when his
assailants left, leaving three dead in the yard
and carrying of Ave mortaily wounded (since
dcad.) The Squire thea lighted up the
house, and his sick family came out from their
bidding places. Not whole pane of glass
remained IN seven windows. Three balls had

In the year 1885 this Jackson was one Of

above quoted has described him correctly

not have been characterized, while in college,

of the lights of the class Of $50. The re-

which we have quoted, does not overstate the

papers, and have been much admired. lie

his sound judgment and answering integrity
in regard to all affairs with which he had any

Council Of Baltimore, in answer to call

is list Of the expenses incurred by the city,
in the attack upon the soldiers passing
through lor the defence of the capital on the
10Th day of April last. One of the leading
charges is S7,720 for gums !" Halls rifles
were bought to the amount OF 5000, and
other rifles costing 1920, Besides this
there were charges for gun-carriages, pixies
and revolvers, most Of these arms now being
in all probability within the confederate lines.

REBEL MAIL CoMMUSIcATIoNs.-
Washington Republican states that the reb-
els in the lower counties of Maryland have re-
sorted to the following device for transmit
ting intelligence across the Potomac to their
friends in Virginia:
a large kite is made, and instead of pa
per, is covered with oiled silk, so as to rem
der it imperyious to water. The tail is form
ed by folding letters or newspapers together.
and tying them with loop knot-each letter,
or pc haps two letters together forming a
knob. When the tail is as heavy as the kite
can conveniently bear up under, cord long
eDough to reach about two-thirds the way
across the river is attached, and the kite rails
ed in the air. After the kite has exhausted
the string, or has reached sufficient height,
the cord is cut and the concern, gradually
descending, is borne by the breeze to the
Virginia shore, where the hobs are taken off
by those in waiting, and news for their SYM
palhizing friends in Maryland tied on in their
stead. With the FIRST favorable wind, back
comes the kite to the Maryland shore, and
rice versa.
By this means large numbers Of letters and
northern newspapers find their way into Nir-
ginia, and the communication between the
two shores remains constant and uninterrupt-
ed"
