New THEATRE.--The Seven Sisters
will be repeated again at the New Thea
ire tonight This spectacle is produced
msgniiicently; the scenery, decorations,
mechanism,an all the paraphernalia be-
ing superb. Miss Lofty Hough, Miss
Sprague, Miss Carrie Navarro, MIR. Lef-
ingwell, Mr.. Wight, and indeed the
whole company, combine 10 give it eff
feet Miss Sprague is stranger amongst
us, but she will soon have host of adj
mirers and friends. Miss Carrie Ma
vArre not only acts well her part, but is
an admirable vocalist, and adds greatly
to the charms of the piece by her sing-
ing The ZouAve Drill is very fine, whilst
the closing tableaux is exceedingly
grand and imposing.
We would suggest to the managers
that il might be advantageous to their
interests if they would not sell more
tickets for seats in that portion of their
house denominated the orchestra, than il
will hold; and that when gentlemen are
assigned seats in it. they be secured
against the annoyance of imperlinent
ushers.

Morris Shinn, Michael Lathrop and James
Oasey--haVe lately reached our lines from
Chattanooga, which point they left on the
4th ult, at 8 o'clock in the evening. They
took their arms and equipments with
them. They first tried to join Rose
crans's army, but found the rebel pickets
too thick, They then struck for De-
cAtur, and walked three nights through
the country infested with Roddy's mep.
While eating dinner, on the route, they
were arrested by three of Roddy's men,
but after having q hand TO hand fight
they succeeded in driving them off
These men on reporting at our lines stated
that the utmost restitution and dlssatis-
faction exist in Bragg's army. They
state also that men are deserving by
scores, and that Brsgg's army was in
readiness to fall back TO Atlanta on the
approach of Rosecrans.
These parties further report that three
men of Gen. Rosecrans's body. guard of
the 10th Ohio cavalry, taken in late ac-
ton, near Franklin, were hung-One on a
charge of stealing from citizens of the
COnfsderacy, while in Confederate uni
form the others on a charge of being
spies. John Keho of Cincinnati, Ohio,
was one of the men hung.
Two railroad men-NAthan Peck and
Richard Pollard-who left Meridian on
the 10th, report that Johnston's army
was much scattered, and that he was en-
deavoring to concentrate, but for what
purpose was unknown.
A gentleman who witnessed a dress
parade of the LIST Alabama regiment of
Africans at Corinth, on Friday, states
that it far excelled all that he had ever
conceived the negro was capable Of The
regiment numbers $50 men, and they are
said TO be the best sort of soldiers for
guard duty. Our friend was in ecstacies
over the efficiency of the corps, aud really
seemed to think that the LIST Alabama
had demonstrated, beyond all question,
the propriety ofeulisting African soldiers.

New method Of catching rats--This is

REMARKS.
Fighting against appalling odds, and
against an army strongly reinforced by
the flower OF the rebel troops, from every
part of the Confederacy, the Army of the
Cumberland has added magnificently to
its former laurels. The whole military
strength of the rebels has been aimed at
General Rosecrans, with the purpose not
merely to drive him back or defeat
him, but to annihilate him. Thus
far the attempt has signally failed, and
as Burnside's army was expected to enter
the field to-day if the fight should be
renewed, we may reasonably expect one
of the greatest victories of the war to be
achieved by the National forces. We
have full confidence in the pluck and
endurance of our troops although they
have to contend with desperate men,
struggling in the last great effort.

HThe important topic Of the week
has been the Presidents Message,
Which was delivered to Congress on
wednesdss. fhe 9th mss. No doca-
msnt Of the kind has yet been issued
which will be more closely scanned or
widely resd. We have no room this
week eves fora few extracts from the
main portion Of the Message. The pro-
clamstion accompanying il, We give in
full.
The whole is written in that quaint
style peculiar to President Lincoln, but
which bears the impress Of sober. hon.
est truth. As such, it will be well
received by the loyal people Of the
United States, whilst the fierce howl Of
rage from the rebels, and the vindic-
tive and malignant assaults OF the cop
perheads Of the North. only prove how
completely its force tells home upon
their cause. His offers Of amnesty te
the poor deluded masses Of the rebel
States, will meet the approval Of every
honest man. no less than his decided
views relative to the exclusion of the
leaders In this wicked and merciless
war. from any benefits thereof. Let us
wait patiently for the results. The
Emancipation Proclamation is silently
doing its work. although 1t was re-
ceived with derision BY the rebels and
their friends. The proclamation jus,
i.sued will in due time effect the pur-
pose for which is was designed. Mean.
