never too fastidious in this res

nor grape, nor mimic balls, could
make them give an inch.
Passing over many interesting
events, we will come to New
Years. We got up early in the
morning to the tune of whizzing
shells. 1t had rained all night
and we were wet as cats. Alter
thinking of all he old and young
folks at home, and wishing them
a happy New Year, we went a,
our old business of shooting reb-
els. There wasn't much done
this day, but it was the general
understanding tina: in the morn
ing a general attack would be
made. We lay down at night
firmly expecting this to be the
programme; but judge of oul
surprise when we were walked uF
about 10 O'Clock and ordered tc
evacuate the place. This was
done so secretly that the rebeI
picke:s never dreamed Of any
thing unusual. Our Regiment
was the last to leave the woods,
two companies being detailed tc
cut trees across the road.
We fell back to the boats,
steamed down the Yazoo and up
the Mississippi some Is miles
from Vicksburg. We are now
lying here. What is to be done
| know rot, neither do | care;
bet when it is done will let you
know. G.. II. BoNEBRAKE.

A rather comprehensive sum
mary Of Legislative proceeding.
for the last few days had beer
prepared for this No. but cannot
be got in the forms. The pro.
ceedings have not been SO very
important in any other way thar
as showing the temper and DE-.
termination of members.
The Democratic members
show disposition TO make the
most OF their numerical powers.
They have furnished liberal evi.
dence in the way of ills and reso-
lutions against the emancipation
policy of the President, and every
thing else having an anti-slavery
look about it, and for the en-
forcement of the 18th article of
the Constitution, the exclusion
of negroes and mulattoes, and
other measures of the same char
acter. The most important thing
done is the election Of u. S
Senators, OF which we give ac-
count. No action yet on contest
ed seals. We are glad the Gag.
ony" is over about the Senatorial
election, and think the RepuLli-
cans did right.

don't our Governor look after Us?
All the boys from our county are
doing well. J. Wright, of Capt.
Carriers Co. was wounded in the
forearm, by a guerrilla, pretty Sc
verely, but the wound being a
flesh wound think his arm can
be saved without difficulty.
The cotton trade, which was
so efectually ''dried up by the
guerrillas in the vicinity. has
again resumed its usual vigor,
and to-day the promenade above
the landing, is covered with bales
of the staple Of the South. Fires
are not so numerous as they
were; is,cs are at a discount.
The pick-pockets and rogues of
the whole country are here.

Near Vicksburg, Jan. 3. 1864
DEARToURNAL:-As we have
passed through some rather int.
resting scenes since | last ad-
dressed you, it may be interesting
to again hear from this part oil
the army.
We started from Memphis the
Goth of December, our Regiment
getting aboard the SAINT Gatv,
an old rlckety steamer long stree
condemned; nut she served us a
noble purpose, for, as we were
going down the river, the rebels
would always select the incest
