From the Citizen, 18th.
Col. Carrot of the Goth Alabama regiment,
was killed on the lines early yesterday morn
ing. Col. q. was one Of the most distin.
gui5hed lawyers of his State, true patriot
ana a gallant soldier. His loss will be Sc
gerely felt and his place hard to Gil.
lNcENDIARY SHELLs.-The enemy has been
throwing great number Of incendiary shells
into the city, which have thus far proved
ineffective In destroying any property
IheSe shells contain a small tin tube, about
the size OF an ounce vial, which appears to
be filled with some equitable fluid, and i.
wrapt around on the out side with several
layers of paper Upon the bursting of the
shell the top of the tube is blown off and
the fluid ignted, When it falls upon tho
ground it burns witlI3a blue Pickering blaze
some ten minutes, and seems to burn wish
intense heat.
We are Informed that the negroes who
are collected at Warrenton are being organ.
lied into regiments by the Yankees. Our
army will in all probability have to confront
some of these negro regiments in the field
Of battle before the siege of VickSburg /,
raised. The negroes will find that it iss
dangerous business to so soldering for tho
Yankees
