A Handsome Affair.

The horse marines" have been at sorne Of
their old tricks. We learn fro u the Rich
mond Dispatch that on the Goth inst, COM
pany of partisan rangers, under the COM
msnd of Major Edgar Burroughs, attacked
the steamer j. B. White, on the Aibemarle
and Chesapeake canal, captured and burnt
her. together with dredging machine and
two lighters, which she was towing. This
steamer is the same vessel which was run out
from Norfolk to Fortress Monroe last year by
). Byers, the pilot, who gave information TO
the Federals that the evacuation of the city
was going on. She was on her way to Great
Shoals, and was captured at place called
Bethslgar. The crew and passengers were
taken off into swamp near by and paroled.
The steamer was valued at $4,000. Major
Burroughs also attacked the mail steamer
Fawn on the canal. but though heavy fire
was poured into her, she got by Lynch5aug

Some are in a state Of destitutior, sssirg to

property generally ruined. "A considerable

IAN lliinois Lieutenant, captured on the

| Democrats of Ohio--Yo on have been beaten:
by what means it ia idle now to inquire. Ii
Is enough that while tens of thousands of
soldiers were sent or kept within your State.
or held In active camp elsewhere to vote A.
gainst you, the Confederate enemy were
marching upon the capital of your country.
You were beaten; but a nobfer battle for
constitutional liberty and free, popular Go.
vernment, never was fought by any people,
And your uneonquerable frmness and cour-
age, even in the midst Of armed military force.
secured you these first of freemen's rights
free speech and a free sallot. The conspira.
cy Of the 18th Of May fell before you. Be not
discouraged; despair not of the Republic:
maintain your rights, stand firm to your posi-
ton; never yield up your principles or your
organizations; listen not to any one who
would have you lower your standard in the
hour Of defeat.
No meliowing of your opinions upon any
question, even Of policy, viii avail ANYTHING
to cnnclliate your political foes. They de-
mand nothing less than an absolute snrren.
der of yeur principles and your organization.
Moreover, it there be any hope for the Con-
stltution or liberty, it is in the Democratic
party alone, and your felow-citisens ia a lit.
Tie while longer will see it. Time and events
Will force It upon all, except those who profit
BY the eaamities of their country.
thank you, one and all, for your svmpa-
ihies and your SURFACES. Be assured that
hough in exile fer no offence bat my politi-
al opinions, and the free expression Of them

ind me ever steadfast in those opinions, and

Private Hotels.

Mike has made several important discoye-
| ries in his recent raid through the Southwest.
He says he has just found out what .'pri-
vate hotel" is. He has found several of them
in his travels, and they are truly very pecu-
liar institutions.
He says their bells and gongs make az
much chatter as if there was really sometbin.
on the table to call the public to, bat when
one gets there, he sees nothing but empty
plates. Presently the waiter will be seen dis
pensing different articles of provender-pret-
try generally to the military gentlemen with
stars and bars on their collars, and when YOU
ask them to give you "some O. that, what that
feller.s got," the. waiter will look at YOU lust
as a faro dealer does when he ssrakss down
your pile, locks as if he had ..chewed" yeu.
and innocently says:
THAT'S private, sir
Then you look around to see what else
might suit your taste, and Won see another
chap with eggs. You think, "eggs are CON.
mon enough. dear knows"
Well, give me some eggs. then"
DENIS private, toe, sir. De gemman fotch

Give me some potatoes, then; suppose
they're not private" / said, loud enough to
attract all the eyes around the table.
Yes, massa, dem's private, too-but kin
glib you some corn bread--an', an here's some
salt, an here's some corn bread"
''Give me some of that butter, YOU black

make any body feel who was paying eight
dollars a day for beard. -

Ihis capped the climax, and determined
to finish my meal with corn dodgers and salt

New Way to Increase the Army.

New Way to Increase the Army
The Chattanooga correspondent of the At
lanta Appeal says that rule has just been
my, which more than any other promises the
good result 10 long and effectually sought to
be accomplished by other means-namely
ed to one Of our Colonels, W. f. Gray, Of the
Hampton Legion, of South Carolina, and
through him Gen. Jenkins, his brigade COM
mander now commanding Hoods division, J
to devise a plan which has superseded the
necessity of ether legislation, filled .heir own
commands apprc ximately to the usual maxi
mum, and been productive of the best results.
The same system has been now adopted by
Gen. Bragg, and under date of October 10th,
he issues general order, of which the fol-
lowing is copy:
HEADo'Rs ARMY OF TENNESSEE,
Missionary Ridge, Oct, 16. 1868.
General Orders No. 1877.
In order to augment the strength of the ar
my, and to give to our brave soldiers an op
portunity to visit home and provide for their
families during the coming winter the follow
ing rule is adopted =
l. A furlough Of not exceeding forty days
will be granted to every non.commissioned
officer and private who secures recruit for
