THR YANKEE CAPITAL SAFE-Emerson Etheridge
the renegade West Tennesseean, has been sighted by
the Yankee Government, and has become very strong
in his opposition to it in consequence. In series of
letters written to the Chicago Times be attempts to
show the people how they humbugged. The satri-
Cal rascal gets off the following the safety of the
Capital >.
At present. however the capital is sale and the army
is safe This amazng statement is made by the Admin
straon organs and the people expected to be ubi
liant over the fact. Safe! Shameful, huiiating con-
fession. Safe from what? Safe from capture by the
rebels, whom we have been fighting for nearly three
years Safe from capture by the rebels whose ports
We have blockadded whom We have deprived of mails
and medicines whose back bones We have broken
more than dozen times; whom We have ridiculed
as ragged, starving and dirty; to whom at first
refused to accord the rights of begerents with whom
for long time refused to exchange prisoners whose
privateersmen we loudly boosted would hang as pi-
rates Safe from the capture of the rebels whose mill
tary power, as Mr.. Seward lately assured the world
was broken and entirely exhausted Safe from the cap
ture by the rebels to conquer whom we are now coad
upon to raise the pu number of three hundred thous
and more men, in addition to the seventeen hundred
thousand whom these Pesky rebss have already kept
ctveyemployed!-Safe! safe indeed oh shame where
the blush? Will We conquer the rebas at this rate
Besides, how aFe we going to emencipate, conhcate,
smalgamate, by remaining safe " in our cap

severed Of tn, fraternity gathered together
and proceeded to the residence of the old
gentlemeu, and by way of retaliation,
commenced calling him charcoal" sab

asking him to come out The old man
endured this patiently for some time, and
at last concluding that foibearance had
ceased to be virtue, went out and thrash
ed The young man soundly. His CON-
panlons, when they saw the old man lay
hoid on him. thinking no doubt that dis.
cretion was the better part. made off and
left him to receive what he so richly de-
served. We trust he has learned a lesson
he will not soon forget, and if the thrash

ADDITIONAL OF THE CAVALRYFIGHT

MAsHIEGT0N, June -.
This reconnaissance by our cavalry, has
solved the mystery of the location of Lee
and Ewell. From this source it is also
ascertained that Longstreet was on We'd
nesday at Union, LOudon County, in the
Bull Run Valley.
Advices from below, says A. P. Hills
advance guard, consisting of Hampton's
Legion, was advancing toward Dumfries,
and that one regiment had made its ap-
pearance at Stafford C. II. Combining
these facts, intelligent officers draw the
conclusion that Lee is advancing upon the
Army of the Potomac in three columns.
His right under Hill, by the way Of 0cca-
duan and the Wolfe Run Shoals his CEN
ter under Ewell, by way of ThrOughfare
Gap, and his left under Longstreet, by
way Of Leesburg. Such disposition has
been made Of cur army by Gen Hooker,
that no surprise can possibly take place.
A few hours will probably develope furth-
er movements and intentions on the part
Of Lees forces which are said to be up
ward of 10000 strong.
! Scattering reports of guns were heard
in the direction of Aldie, and were renew
1 ed at intervals this morning, nothing Il
as yet heard of the result.
The following were among the killed
and wounded in the recent cavalry fight
ct Aldie Va,
! W. J. Carpenter, arm; VIM, Akens, leg
Bailey D. Leefer, confusion; Sergeant Bos
! quin, shoulder; Sergeant G. Il. Stone, leg
Henry Leopold, severely in the head; W
D. Warren, hip; sergt., Man, injured BY
a horse falling on him T. Osborn, foot.

A New Breed of sheep.

Mr.. Horace P. Cannon, of Twinsburg, is
making some experiments in sheep breed
ing, by which he hopes to produce breed
Of native sheep that will prove desirable
accession to the WOOL growing interests Of
the State. Selecting, about five years ago,
9 pair of good conditioned black sheep, he
has bred them q" in and in until now he
hss an eve three years old a buck from
her two years old, and a second eve, from
the two, one year old. For the first time,
they were sheared two weeks ago, ten
days after being washed. The wool from
thethree year old eve (three years growth)
measured eighteen inches in length that
from the buck two years GROWTH the
same, and that from the yearliDg eve, nine
Inches; showing, as we think, (though not
an expert in that line) a very decided i'm
provement in quality from the one to the
other. The three heeces weighing thirty
six pounds, yielding thirteen, sixteen and
sevenlpounds, respectively according to age.
