A special to the Tribune, Washington

eral interviews with the President and
Secretary of War who have formally re-
newed tho proposition that he should re-
sumo command of the department Of the

An extract from u private letter dated
off Galveston, Jan. 10th, says that " the
blockading squadron off that place had
commenced bombarding the city, and
on Monday they would try to pass the
forts at the mouth of the harbor.'
A rumcr is current in HAVANA that
steamer, supposed TO be the Oreto, or
some other rebel vessel, had been chased
by several Union gunboats. The steam
err Creole, from New York, arrived nj

the United States gunboat Cayuga,
which vessel reported that the Cayuga
had observed steamer on fire aud three
other vessels were firing into her. The

A Band of Union.

Il is q noticeable feature in our history
as county that we are emphatically a
divided people; that, socially, there is but
little communication between northern
and southern portions thereof; that Grand
River save in the immediate vicinity of
its waters, seems dividing line, socially,
politically and commercially-the terrific
~ north of the river constituting one
distinct Representative District, the tor
ritory south of the river, another. Each
portion has its own trade, distinct and sep
arate from the other. In respect TO our
agricultural interests alone, and especially
the best interests Of the Society, estab-
iished in our midst for the promotion of
agriculture, the lack Of intercourse with
our Holland and ICELAND neighbors, in
the Colony" has operated seriously TO
its disadvantage. For, in no portion Of
our county has agriculture received more
careful attention than with the inhabt-
nnts Of those townships, aud their horses
and cattle are Of acknowledged superior
ity. One great cause of this interruption
Of communication and non-intercourse is
a lack Of passable roads, there being none
leading from the Colony to any point on
tho river east Of Grand Haven. But this
difficulty promises soon to be obviated
and neigbborly communication establish
cd. Our Representative, Mr.. Luther, has
introduced bill in the Legislature estab-
fishing State road from Lamont to Zee
land, by way Of Storr's Mill. We trust
The measure may meet the ready approx.
al OF that body--for we are assured that
great advantages in many respects will b
reaped therefrom. ~

IA SERIOUS AccIDEST.---An accident
that came near proving fatal to Mrs.
Hathaway, wife Of Judge Hathaway, Of
Nunica, occurred on Friday last. Mrs. H.,
10 company with Mrs. Putnam and her
little son, started on drive ofa few miles
with horse, belonging to Judge H., at
tached to cutter. They had scarcely
proceeded half mile when the horse
took fright, started of at full speed, up
setting tho cutter aud throwing Mrs. H.
violently against tree, injuring her head,
face and stomach TO such degree that
her death seemed imminent, Neither is
she yet considered out Of danger, though
little more comfortable. The bones OF
the upper portion of the face were sadly
shattered aud depressed; SO much so that
her features, if she recover, can scarcely
be expected to resume their natural shape.
Mrs. Putnam and her son escaped
comparatively harmless.

A letter from Fort Gaines, in Mobile harbor
dated the Sth instant, gives an account of the
sentence of death having been passed upon
spy. He is Captain of the 23d New York
regiment, came through our lines at Richmond,
Va, and has been spying ever since. He has
visited Charleston, Savannah, Chattanooga aad
A anta, as also nearly every prominent point
in the Confcdcracy. His last visit was to Mo-
bile, where his money gave ont, and he then
endeavored to procure position as substitute
in one of the companies stationed at Fort
Gaines, but the Colonel refused to accept him,
not believing him above the corscripton age
He then went over to Fort Morgan, where he
was taken as a substitute; about two weeks af-
ter, he left his post ard started for the Yam
KEGS. Pursuit was Immediately made, and our
men succeeded in catching him about six miles
from :he fort. Upon his person was found
plan of Forts Gaines and Morgan, giving the
strength of the forts and the number and size
of the guns. He was court martialed and SEN
fenced to death. The sentence has been APP
proved by the President, and he will be shot
on the 28th instant. After his capture, he
confessed being spy, and gave the number of
his regiment. The fact Of this man being
able to 60 at large for the time he evidently
was, admonishes us to be carefully of all stran-
vigilance was secured, dc zens Of spies would be
detected giving all the information that leads
to our reverses.

A correspondent of the Memphis Appeal,
writing from Morton, says that accounts from
the West of the Mississippi are very favorable
Kirby Smith is regarded as very proper man
for the command. They have confidence over
there that they can carry on this fight alone,
and are determined to do so, if necessary Ex-
tensive arrangements are being made to supply
themselves with implements and munitions of
war to any desired extent, either by home man
ufactnre, by legitimate importation through
Mexico, or by smuggling through the New
Mexican lines. Crops arc represented as be-
ing unprecedented in yicld-some bottom lands
promising eighty bushels to the acre. Stock
hogs are plenty, and well taken care of by the
farmers, who are feeding carefully, and with a
view Of avoiding hog cholera. The Iberia salt
works have been in our possession for two
months, and have been worked to the best ad-
vantage. Beef cattle are abundant and in
good condition. Take it all in all, the Trans
Mississippi department can take care of itself,
and will possibly sweep the Abolitiodists out
of Missouri before we of the Middle Depart
ment do as much for Kentucky. 1t is crafty
ing to know that there are no submission
there Like Tennessee, some of them have
tasted the sweets of Yankee rule, and will have
no more of it.

CHARLESTON, August 19.-The enemy's land
batteries kept pounding at Fort Sumter through
out yester 'ay, chiefly with their heavy Par
rott guns. There was comparatively little fir
ing against Fort Wagl err on which the enemy
can make no impression whatever. AMonitor
engaged Wagner y"st,rday afternoon, but was
soon driven off. No casualties occurred amongst
our troops yesterday. Last night was dark and
windy, and no firiug took place, but at daylight
this morning the encmy's Parrot guns re-
opened on Sumter, firing quite rapidly. 1t
still continues. Our James Island batteries are
replying brisky.
