The Great Campaign.

A correspondent with Bragg's army
says: The situation in Tennessee and
Kentucky promises campaign which, for
magnitude of field operations, for a dis
play of generalship, and for strategical
combinations, only Napoleon the Great
has offered parallel to it in modern
times. It will be campaign in which
Lee in Virginia, Johnston in Mississippi,
our cavalry in the Federal rear, our adj
vance line at Bristol, Tennessee, and this
army, each will participate and play an
important part, while on the other hand,
the Federals will have no less than four or
five different bases of operations from
which they will, in due time, command
the grand game of conquest. -

One Reason Why ROsecrans was
Removed.

When Stanton, the Secretary of War,
made his late trip from Washington to
Louisville, the following incident took
place at night, on one of the Indiana rail-
roads. The train on which Stanton was
travelling was switched off to allow another
to pass. The secretary was indignant at
the delay, and slipped out into the mud,
which exasperated him more, and taking
the conductor by the breast, he shook him
and demanded his reasons for stopping.
The western man didn't understand that
way of asking question, so he drew
a heavy wire-bound lamp and threatened
to demolish the secretary if he did not let
20. One of Stanton's clerks stepped up
and informed the conductor that the great
man be used 50 unceremoniously was the
Secretary of War, expecting him to sink
into the ground after such an announce
ment. But the conductor replied that he
didn't care fig who he was! A tall, big
boned Hoosier brakesman, hearing the
contention, and fearing his chief, the con-
ductor, would need help, stepped up and
said:

The widow of President Taylor is rep
resented as having arrived at Bermuda in
a vessel which had run the blockade. It
would be interesting to know whether she
is violent secessionist, like her son, Gen
Dick Taylor. President Taylor was sup
posed, by the Northern Wings who voted
for him, to be really in favor of free-soil
principles, and his action while President
was in harmony with such belief. Horace
Mann always considered his death great
national calamity, and we remember hear
ing him say, in conversation, that Taylor,
had he lived, would have settled the terri
torial question to the satisfaction of those
opposed to the extension of slavery. There
can be no doubt that, if he had been in Bu-
chanans place, he would have put down
the insurrection with a strong hand, before
it had assumed the gigantic proportions
with which it confronted President Lincoln.
The rebels boast of pike with which
some of the Alabamians are armed, and
think it will strike terror to the Yankees.
The Alabama pike consists of keen two
edged steel blade, like large bowie-knife
blade, near a foot and half long, with a
sickle-lke hook, very sharp, bending back
from near the socket. This is intended for
cutting the brides of cavalrymen, or pull
ing them off their horses, or catching hold
of the enemy when they are running away,
This head is mounted on staff eight feet

Hon. Chauncey NJ. Abbott, of Niles
Cayuga county, N. Y, died suddenly of
neuralgia on Wednesday morning last He
was active at the polls on election day, and
his illness resulted from over-exertion and

Mr.. Abbott represented the Second Assem-

Twenty fifth Senatorial District, composed

OPINIONS OF AN HONEST OLD BARKEEPER
60" Taste is various. Thus, there are
those who are for the Union of brandy and
water with, but not without, sugar-those
for it without but not with-those for it
with or without, but prefer it with, and
those for it with or without, but prefer it
without. It thus becomes question not
of two sides merely, but of at least four
sides, even among the bibulous, saying
nothing of teetotallers, who oppose the
whole thing altogether. Confidence dies
and universal suspicion reigns. There is
no comfort in bar-tending."
Gov. Andrews proclamation appoint
ing Thursday, November 26, as the day
of thanksgiving in Massachusetts,, contains
this passage:
Blending the temper Of forgiveness with an
unfinching integrity of purpose; weeping with
the bereaved who mourn the beauty of our
Israel slain upon our high places; but catching
the sublime spirit of those who have sealed
their testimony with their blood may we fail
not to implore on this, our annual festival,
strength from above to exercise ourselves also
in every heroic virtue for the vindication of
right and the overthrow of wrong.
Governor Andrew, in his late mos
sage to the Massachusetts, legislature,
speaks Of Col. Robt. G. Show who fell at
Fort Wagner, at the head of the Fifty
fourth Massachusetts colored regiment, as
6 the gallant vounp American whose spot-
less life, swhose chivalric character, and
whose heroic death there is no marble
white enough to commemorate.

A sober turn; our household songs
Are heavy with nations griefs and wrongs;

Of the brave hearts that never more shall beat,
The eyes that smile no more, the unreturning
feet" a-

A Millionaire Rebel Beggar.

The ravages of war are well illustrated by
the case of a Southern man living in the neigh.
borbood of Snyder's Bluffs, who lately apple

plantations, and was estimated TO be worth

rilla raid, he had instructed his field hands in
the use Of musket for several days previous
to the battle. When the action took place tho
plantation negroes wers rnarshaied under his
charge and stimulated to daring, deeds. One

dispatched the rebel Col. Joe. Phillips, the
commanding officer of the enemy, and having
obtained hssword. Gen. Emory observed to
tho Sergeant tha. he could not remain detailed
upon plantation that such men were needed
in the field. He gave him permission to retain
the captured sword, aud ordered him TO report
