The departure of Mason aud Slidell from
Fort Warren was conducted as quietly as
possible. The garrison, with the exception
of the guards on duty, were kept from the
side of the fort where the prisoners quar-
ters are, and there we're but few persons
upon the wharf when they embarked. The
other political prisoners, as they bade them
coed by, congratulated them on their re-
lease. Mr.. Mason went off in good humor
Indeed he has recently been in good spirits
and has borne his imprisonment with the
air of philosopher.
Mr.. Slidell was some what sulky, and not
at all pleased at going in such an unosten-
tatious manner, and in such vessel. He
evidently expected that steamer would
come here especially for them. Part of his
ill-nature may be owing to his health which
has not been good for some weeks, keeping
him pretty close to his room, although he
has not called for medical aid.
The tug Starlight, with the four rebels,
reached Provincetown little before five P.
NJ, and Immediately proceeded TO the Eng
lish sloop ofwar Riaaldo, and transferred
her passengers. Commodore Hudson, who
was in charge of the arrangements, went
with them on board the English war vessel,
and remained on board for about fifteen
minutes, when he returned to the tug.
At about elk P. NJ. the RiRaldo got under
way, and proceeded on her voyage In
about two hours afterward a violent gale
commenced, and blew all night at Province
town with almost the violence of hurri
cane, but as the wind was off shore, probably
the safety of the vessel was not endangered

lCorrespoudence Of the 81. Louis Republican,
CAIRO, January 2.-Winter has come upon
us at last After long season of pleasant
weather, such as is seldom known even In
this climate, we have a cold, raw and blus-
tering day, with indication of snow. 1t finds
our troops, however, comfortably encamped,
in spacious and convenient barracks, we'll
clothed and equipped, and enjoying remark
ably good health. Now is the time for the
knitters of socks and mittens to ply tleir
fingers nimbly, and those who can not knit
should lose no time in learning. They can
not make too many of these comforts, for
although our brave soldiers are willing to
endure any hardship, yet their health must
be cared for TO render them capable of en-
durance.
We have still to wait for our forward
movement" and there are no indications as
yet that it will be made speedily. The differ
ent regiments are improving daily in drill
and discipline, and while there is no finer
body of men in the world, they are almost
equal to regulars in the most essential requi-
sites of a soldier. The greater part Of them
have stood FIRE, and are anxious to try it
again.
The gunboat feet is all here, and the boats
are being rapidly completed, and have nearly
all received their armaments. Two OF them
are in service now, and all ought to he ready

laid up here, awaiting their iron pots aud
projecties, which are daily expected from
the East When this powerful flotilla goes
down the river, it seems inevitable that CO.
lumbus must fall. No batteries that can
possibly I've erected can stand the tremen-
dous fire of such host of long. range guns
and mortars, served as they will be by brave
and experienced gunners. The rebels may
prste as they please of the supposed impreg
inability of Columbus, and call it 1.-THE Ma
nassas of the West" but the terrible storm
of shot and shell that is in preparation for
them must surely drive them out of that
hot bed of Secession. A very considerable
land force will be necessary to assist in the
movement and it is a serious question with
some where the men are to come from; but
| it is to be presumed that General Halleck
understands all about that 1t will be a
grand and glorious sight when we do move
All the troops in this district, at Cape
Girardesu, Birds Point, Camp Holt Cairo
and Paducah, have been mustered for pay
and the regiments will receive their money
as fast ss it can be dealed out.
Captain G. w. Graham, Commodore o

by Captain W. J. Kountz, also an experienced

the removal of Captain Graham, and the new
appointment was probably made on persona

The BattIe of Mount Zion.

A correspondent of the st. Louis Demo.
crdt, writing from Sturgeon, on the 10th
ult., gives many particulars of the battle at
Mount Zion, in Boone County, on the 2Sth.
General Prentiss' force numbered six hun
dred men, and that of the rebels about eight
hundred. The latter were completely
routed, with the loss of their entire camp.
The loss of the rebels is stated at fifteen
killed and seventy wounded, twenty-seven
prisoners forty guns and sixty horses and
mules. The Union loss was three killed,
two mortally wounded, and thirty more or
less severely. The enemy were encamped
in the edge of wood, upon a hill, difficult
of approach, with every advantage in their
favor.
Captain Boyds rifemen were ordered to
bring the enemy into action, and although a
perfect storm of lead swept around them,
they stood their ground and fought obstin-
ately, as long as a rebel remained in sight.
About two hundred and fifty men partici-
pated in the engagement and their courage
GUS style of fighting was highly compliment
ted by General Prentiss. The officers for the
most part showed GOODNESS and courage, and
managed their respective commands with
skill and effect.
The command returned to their camp al

SECESSION RAGs.-The London Times has
become positively ridiculous in its rawlings
against our Government. In its issue of the
10th ult. it quotes description of the opera
tions of the 'stone feet" and adds:
If this be true-aud we believe the fact Of
the attempt is established-it is an act of
hostility to the whole human race. People
who would do an act like this would pluck
the sun out of the heavens to pnt their ene-
mics in darkness, or dry up the rivers, that
no grass might grow on the soil where they
bad been offended, Yet such men ask for
our sympathes, and there are a scattered
few among us who are not ashamed to iden-
,i'y themselves and their doipgs!
In the same article it also says that our
Government, sin the agony of its disappoint-
ment and its rage, is evidently about to make
an attempt to spread massacre through the
unprotected dwellings of their estranged
b1ethern." 1t does not believe the scheme
will succeed, but still it luxuriates in its
vilifcation as follows;
1t seems that, after exciting these black
men to work out this unmanly revenge, the
North does not propose to endure their pres
ence. Mr.. Lincoln, like one of the despots
of the Old World, undertakes to transport the
whole race, slave snd free, to so ne territory
which 10 white man desires, but which Mr..
Lincoln will buy for them, that he may never
more behold a sable face.

A correspondent of the Journal Of CON-
merce writes from Washington on the 3Oth
ultimo, that he has good authority for be.
lieving that there is very strong Union
feeling developing in Central North Caro-
lima; that there was constant expectation
that it would break out in a counter revo.
luton, and from the names mentioned there
is every reason to have confidence that if a
sufficient force could be landed at Beaufort
and Wilmington, to take those places and
advance upon the railroads leading from
thence to the interior, with a preceding
proclamation that if North Carolina would
lay down her arms she should De received
with frauernal regard, and sufficient force
furnished to sustain her from side attacks,
in thirty days she would be back in the
Union, and the weight of the Confederacy
on either side would break the backbone of
the insurrection.

Corn is drug in the msrket-pork is no
better, and it costs as much to raise wheat
as one can get for it. To Offset the former
we advise our farmer friends to plant more
sparingly of corn, and turn their attention
more extensively to the culture of sugar cane,
and the manufacture of molasses and sirup
therefrom. II the present war lasts twelve
months longer, and there is no prospect of
its being closed within that time, sugar will
be an article of value. As it is now, pound
of the poorest sugar is worth as much or
more than q bushel of corn, and it costs
more to raise that bushel of corn in actual
money than it is worth in market. If q
farmers family consumes four hundred
pounds of sugar in a year, it takes about six
hundred bushels of corn at the present rates
to pay for it. But with one-tenth part OF
the land and one-tenth part of the labor and
expense, he can produce all the sweeteniog
he can use in his family for the year, and,
by cultivating the same extent of ground in
sugar cane, be can raise not only enough for
his own family, but enough more to buy the
balance of his family groceries, for sorghum
sirup or sugar will sell, and the day is COM
ing right along when it will be just as much
a staple article at our groceries as New Or
leans sugar or Java coffee. We can but re-
iterate the advice to plant more of sugar
cane and less of corn. Indeed, it must be
done.-DaVenport Lotod) Democrat.

10 some parts of France and Italy hogs are
regularly trained to hunt for truffies, sort
OF mushroom of delicate flavor and highly
priced, found beneath the surface of the
ground. When hog scents truffie he ex-
presses his salts action by grunt, then digs
up the ground with his snout, seizes the
truffle carefully and carries it to his master,
who gives him handful of grain as a re-
ward. And it is we'll known fact that in
the midland counties of England some intel
lgept breeds of hogs have been trained to
hunt tor partridges, wood-cocks and other
game, and have manifested the valuable
qualities of thoroughbred and segacious
