General Morgam's Appearance.

We have just got back from the Morgan
race, and had the satisfaction of being in the
chase yesterday when he was caught. Every
body has something to say or enquire about the
great guerrilla chief We have been asked
thousand and one times what kind of man
Morgan is, and how he looks. We would say
for the relief of all concerned, he has neither
hoofs nor horns, but like Lincoln's maui he is
a mere man. He informed me that his age is
thirty-three years, though his present appear
ance would indicate forty. l presume he told
me the truth. His careworn countenance at
this time is not a proper index of his age.
His stature is six feet; weighs about one hun
dred and ninety pounds; shoulders square and
broad; body straight; head common size; small
feet for man OF his size; small graish eyes,
with rather deep and numerous wrinkles at the
corner of each in the skin, with an expression
of mirthfuness. Whiskers and moustache
black, dark auburn hair, slightly curled at the
end; fair completely red face; good looking,
soft, pleasant musical voice, agreeable manners
&c; in short, ladies' man. He was dressed,
when captured, with black soft, slouch, broad
brimmed hat, gray roundabout. gray pants,
fine kipskin boots pants inside his boot legs
He was not dressed different from private sol.

A New Canidase for Congress.

The Chattanooga Rebel publishes the sub.
joined card from Hon. John Happy: TO my
te,low citizens of Tennessee:
AT the earnest and most frantic solicitations
of two friends. with whom have Just taken q
small drink, have consented to allow my
name to 60 before the public as candidate to
represent the 18th Congressional District of
Tennessee in the next Confederate Congress.
NY claims for civil preferment are mutitu-
dinous, in military point Of view. 1 have
been in every famous retreat in this war, from
Fishing Creek to Lavcrgne. AS retreating
constitutes one of the chief strategic features
Of this war, fatter myself {since nobody else
docs) that l am as expert on backward move
ment as double bug. have served heroi-
cally in the quartcrmaster's department ever
since the war began-and would do it still to
the close. if the authorities would abstain from

hands of your subordinate at Fort Wagner, for
