EVACUATION OF KNoxv1LLE-The town OF
Knoxville, Tenn, was evacuated by ohr troops
on Monday, and on Tuesday was occupied by
the Yankee forces under Burnside The Yam
KEGS came in SO soon after the evacuation that
they captured two or three trains or cars which
had been left there by our troops.
We hear nothing Of the locality to which
Gen. Buckner's command retreated 1t is SUD-
posed that the Burning Of a bridge on the East
Tennessee and Virginia Railroad prevented
she removal of the cars noticed above as being
captured. This feat was doubtless performed
by the tories with which East Tennessee
abounds.--Riehmond Dispatch

A Lock of Hair.

Only a lock of hair, tied with a silken string,
Carefully kept for years, like a misers pile Of
gold;
IjttIes 20 prize in the keeping OF such simple
thing,
But for a darling head long lost in the days of
old.
only lock of hair. An, well, il were better 20
have.
Evenon little tress safe from thu poilers hand,
Than, with he light Of her love down IN the dark
ling grave,
Lonely to wander around desolate, weary land.
only lock OF hair. Yet something to LOOK at, and
kiss
Something 70 keep in mind what never can be
again:
Something to tell Of days unshadowed by anguish
like this:
Something to bring soft thoughts to a sadden ed
and dreary brain.

ONCE UPON A TIME.a

There never was a ssdder diFge
FOR rninstreIs narp or poets Thyme,
Than those few words wherein we IN erge
A dead past Once upon time
In win years bring their healing balm,
Their kind forg etfulness, in vain
That whisper breaks the seeming Gains,
And bids the old ind throb again
It's charm the buried past recalls
A shadow, silent and su bllne,
Across the present sunshine falls
At those words-s' Once upon time
So memory gifts with holy powers
A faded yiolet's perfume faint,
Rendering a sithered spray OF flowers
Precious as relics OF a saint

ResOtred, That the warmest thanks Of the loyal

brave and devoted soldiers who have rallied the
defence OF the old flag: and nobly and persist emily
fought the battles of the country, and met and
yanquished on so many fields the hosts of rebellion
seeking 20 destroy our national life, and that we
pledge ourselves, before Heaven, to sustain them,
by filing up their thinned ranks in the expe-
ditious manner, until the end Of this rebellion shall
come, and peace be restored to the land.
We have thus shown the spirit of the two
Conventions Let the soldiers, and the friends
of the soldiers, judge which ticket is WORTH

The Point Pleasant (W. Va.) Herald
says the good people of that place were
considerably excited on last Sunday night,
by the report that the rebel cavalry were
only three miles back of Buffalo, and were
four huHded strong. On Monday morning,
Col. Smith called out three companies of
the militia to repel an attack. The militia
were kept out until Tuesday evening, when
Col. Smith, despairing of having chance
to engage the enemy, dismissed them. We
have nothing reliable, only that the enemy
engaged Capt. Young's company at Hurri-
Can Bridge and killed two of his men,
The Captain being outnumbered, retrsatcd
safely to Charleston.

A DREADFUL TRAeEDY.-A few days

demeanor in Shelbyvills, Ind, and put in
Jail. The next morning they We're discov-
cred lying on the floor Of the cell, with
tbeir threats cut from ear to ear-the work
of q maniac scho 0as confined in the same
cell! The names of the boys were Shock
d Icy and Haven, aged about l6y years each.
On Saturday last mob mot before the
jail and demanded the insane man for sum
mary execution! They finally got hold Of
him, tied rope around his neck, and hung
him up, but some humane citizens interfered
Immediately, and cut him down in time to
prevent murder. The jailor or whoever
confined the boys is the guilty man, and as
much a mailman as the maniac himself.

worth pound of cure, as the saying goes
An Investigation into the causes of the nu
merous confagrations shows how great a
matter little fire klndleth, and should be
q sufficient warning against carelessness. A
shovel full-of ashes in wooden vessel, a
foul chimney, broken stove, the neglect
to place brick or zinc under stove, few
matches left exposed, may be the means oil
destruction of q building or block. In
these days, when roaring fire in the CRATE

aINrEREsr1Ne DECISIONS. Under the

change days: Provost Marshal General has
decided that tho status of person and his
liabilities under the act of March Sd. 1868
] AsaAsctsd by his age and marriage, for the
two years covered by the present enroll
msnt, are determined by bis age on July
1st, 1868. Where there is one son in the
first, and two or more in the second class,
subject to draft, the latter are within the
meaning of the 4th provision of the I'd Sec
lion of the act as stable to draft" which
. reads as follows: "Whsre there are two or
more soma Of aged or infrm parents, subject
q to draft, the father, (or if he be dead, the
mother may elect which shall be exempt"
"a These decisions are certainly Interesting
{ but how is q body to understand what they
msan7 They doubtless contain world OF
meaning, but how can it be got at? Per-
ahsp, those who can answer the following
question may be able to "wool' the above.

KEEP THEM WARM.-A distinguished
medical gentleman says that diseases of the
chest are early contracted by exposure to
the cold without sufficient clothing, The
greater portion of children from one to tif-
teen months old, who die in winter, are
killed by the cold, or diseases resulting
from the cold. Wollen flannel is recon-
mended as the best clothing to be worn
next the skin in our variable eli npte, at
least for nine months in the year. If par
ents would preserve the health AMI lives Of
their little ones, they should keep them
warmly clad, especially about the chest and
feet. Wooden socks should be adopted, for
cold feet are almost always the cause Of
catching cold.
