Cuban Ema,rcipa,Ion.

Referring to the reported emancipation move
ment in Cuba, the New York Evsai,,g Pos
states that it was started several months ago and
took the form of a petition to the Captain Cen
eral. It learns from gentleman Of that city
who has extensive business connections in the
Island and who resided there at the time refer
red TO, that the petition, whcn he saw il, had
been signed by twenty three of the largest slave
holders IN Cuba, and was still circulating ],
appears, therefore, that the subject has been vel
considered; and there is ground Of hope tha.
the movement will prove finally successful. ?

A DIsssaeea PenasyIEanIa Asegimenl

In the recent battle Of the Deserted House near
Suffolk. Yirgipia, in which the lrspulsed rebels
under General Pryor we're driven back to the
Blackwater, most of Gen. sCorcorans regiments
were new and behaved we'll under their FIRST
serious fire. The l67 Pennsylvania, composed
of drafted men, proved an exception. A letter
from Suffolk, Jan. 3lst, To The New York Tines
thus describes the dastardly conduct Of the
18th:
"whcn ordered forward With the rest at
o'clock, they remained lying IN theroad, refused
to stir. Gen. Corcoran, on hearing this, rode up
to them, accompanied by Cct Spear. and called
for the Colonel. He was dangerously wounded
and did not reply. The Lieutenant Colonel

Morrow County COpperheads Resist.

Their Number.

Especial Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette
CINCINNATI, June 5.-Major Bierce de-
tails additional particulars relative to the
Morrow county insurgents
Ing MS duties near WIllIamsport, ten
men named Shade and Graham and,
asking them their names, ages, &C., they
said it was none of his business, using,
at the same time, numerous epithets, and
stated that there was a band in that
township which had sworn to shoot the
first enrolling officer who made his APP
pearance. Thinking they would soon
get over their opposition, the officer went
to another part of the township to per-
form his work, intending to call on these
men again. In the evening, while pass
ing the insurgents neighborhood, he was
twice fired upon by one of their number,
the balls coming very close to his head
He Immediately reported the affair to the
District Provost Marshal, who telegraph
ed to Colonel PARROT.
Ma jor Bierce took a squad of men and
made some arrests Graham and Slade
Were not arrested, as they had received,
through some source, notice of the ex-
petition, and so escaped. A brother OF
Graham was taken in his house without
difficulty, and brother of Slade was also
taken. He was found in field.
The party then proceeded four miles
east, and arrested man named Jackson,
who was found hid under bed. His
wife refused to open the door until the
Major threated to break it in. jackson
blew a horn to call his friends, but they
did not come. The three men have been
delivered over to the United States Mar
shall of the Northern District for trial by
the civil authorities
This is the first reported instance of
resistance to the enrolment, and the
Copperheads who contemplate anything
of that nature had better take warning,
for prompt and energetic measures will
be adopted by Provost Marshal General

BY LAST NIGHTS MAIL
FROM MURFREEsBORO.

MURFREEsBoRo, June ga letter to
the Chattanooga Rebel, of May 3lst, da-
ted Hoover Gap, May 9th, says:
"Gen. Breckenridge division has
been broken into pieces and scattered.
He and his staff, with one of the frag-
ments, have been sent to another field of
labor"
The, letter goes on to eulogize Brock
inridge and regrets the breaking up of
his command All this confirms our
former reports of his troops having gone
to Mississippi.
The Mobile Register, of May Goth,
says: ...
"Gen. Grant having made seven as
saults upon General Pemberton and
been bloodily repulsed in each, has gone
to digging This means regular siege
operations, and an attempt to starve the
garrison he can't whip Can he starve
out Vicksburg ?-not in a hurry, GER
tainly. 1t is well provisioned for six
months and half provisioned for double
that time. Grants possession or ony-
der's Bluff gives him large advantages in
the proposed siege, in shortening his
base and enabling him easily to obtain
supplies The interest of the situation
causes all eyes to be turned thither A
great battle, perhaps the decisive battle
of the war, will be fought within cannon
shot of Vicksburg
From the death-like quietude in Rose
Grams lines, it is presumed Grant has
been reinforced from the Tennessee
army. The Yankees will need great
numbers for the work before them, and
will send them. We shall want the
same, and they are gone and going
General Johnston is quietly raising
an army in Grants rear, and in short
time 100000 COnfederates will be ready
to dispute the sovereignty of the Lower
Mississippi, and if victorious, re-estab-
lish the freedom of Louisiana The
fate of empire hangs upon the struggle
in Mississippi"
The Chattanooga Rebel devotes its
leader to advocating, in all cases, the
: black flag for black men. An article on
Tennessee affairs says: con the fate Of
Vicksburg hangs the fate of Middle and
: East Tennessee. If we play eternal
smash with Grant-good bye to poor
Rosecrans; but if Grant gives Pember
ton his quietus, then farwell--a long
farwell to the proposed re-occupation Of
Nashville and Southern Kentucky.

FROM MURFREESBORO'.

MURFREEsBoRo, June 5.-Wm. A. Sell
kirk, convicted of the murder of Adam
Weaver, of Wilson county, suffered the
penalty of death to-day by hanging.
The murder of which he was found gull
ty was most diabolical affair, and was
justly expiated by: the death of the
criminal. The wagon containing the
convict and coffin was driven from the
prison through the town and was follow
ed by an immense concourse of citizens
and soldiers. The gallows were erected
in an open field about half mile from
town and was surrounded by at least ten
thousand spectators. The daughter and
son of the murdered man stood immedi-
ately in front.of the scaffold. The form
er asked the privilege of adjusting the
rope. 10
Reliable information has been reeeiv-
ed from Franklin to-day. @
The enemy was handsomely repulsef,
our forces capturing two hundred prison
