a Pay master CANDLES Away a guar.
ter of "a niliiOn-Arre>ts among the
mbie rs Excitement an Sporting
Circles-A Large Part of In Spoil
Il ccOyered.

Mr. Isaac y. Cook. formerly of Marietta,
Ohio, and ~latterly a Paymaster in the United
States service. some time since fell into the
hands of gamblers. and Su 'tained considerable
losses. The story Is the usual one-that he then
entered upon the desperate enterprise OF making
things even. and of course hls losses grew heavier
rs he proceeded, until they amounted to nearly a
quarter of a million: the sum being largely above
two hundred thousand.
The fact of Major Cooks dedication becom
ing known TO the military authorities, the most
energetic efforts were made To recover the lost
money.
Mai. Cook. it appears. had been a conscientious
book keeper, and had kept an exact account OF
all his losses. This enabled the government 10
get after the right parties.
Arrests were made simultaneously ut Cairo.
SPRINGFIELD. Columbus. Chicago. Cleveland and
Louisville. the principal gamblers beng picked
no in each caSe. Their diamond rings. gold
watches and ready money has been possessed,
and 4 lumber OF the inStitut ons where the I'll

thnrity About seventy thousand dollars were
recov cred from parties arrested at Cairo
On the ISt, a large company OF the sporting
fraternity lett ON the mail boat Tor Louisville,
under arrest. IL seems reasonable 10 conclude
that the Government will not. in the end. he Tive
loser.for any heavy amount. and it i possible ey-
ery dollar NAV be recovered
Tile gamblers consider themselves an i'll used
ser vi individuals. bat they knew. when winning
money from Major Cook. thAt il was not his
money, but that they were robbins the Govern
ment. and SOM OF them pursued him in his
travels TIE gambling house OF Whaley. In this
city. l. reported 10 have taken near one hundred
thousand dollars OF the missing money. Tn
houses of Lewis and Corey are also in the
scrape. aud represented OF the trip 10 Louisville

The Psvmaster WAS not "a green one He was
some EARS ago. a steambnatman m the Ohio
trade Ailerwarl he was an agent OF the Man
eta road in this city. and il i now said that ther,
we're rumors of a defalcation on hs part at thar
time. These facts have been known 10 u +
several days. and the publication of the circum
stances has been deferred that the Government
might have all the advantages IN levying upon
the spoilers. The ease has. however. beer
talked over for three days, and was Yesterday
nearly a. well known in the city as If il had beer
ventilated in the newspapers. The authorities die
not wish a total suppression Of the matter. and j
is well to tell such tales without adjournment fo
the moral that they paint.

such position that every hand that es-
says to feel the staff is winged, you can
well understand that there is sharp
shooting.
The night after the first assault, Blair's
division formerly Dave Stuart's, were
continuously and carefully moving their
dead and wounded from the field. Sud
denly a large fire was kindled on the
rebel parapet, and an officer inquired
what our men were doing. Being in
formed, he replied. We built This fire
to take your wounded out Of the ditch
drive your ambulances up, and you will
not be molested." Our wouaded and
dead were all removed, the rebels keep
ing up the light. JACK.

that Jackson, Miss, and Vicksburg were
both in possession Of the federal troops.
II this proves to be true, Mobile must
soon surrender, and the war will hereaf
ter be confined to the Eastern Confed-
eracy. The rebels will probably make
an effort TO crush Rosecrans, but | pre-
sumo he will receive sufficient number
of reinforcements to enable him to hold
his position. IL they fail in that, the

May oath, 1868.

In THE REAR or VIcKsBURG,l
May 24th, 1863.
General Grants army is in the rear OF
Vicksburg, in most excellent military
position, the lines extending from the
upper water batteries, on Walnut Hills,
above Vicksburg, around to the heights
above Warrenton and below Wick, burg.
| The average distance of our main force
from the city is two miles. Our line OF
skirmishers, howe ser, is quite up to the
rebel entrenchments-a few yards gen
orally measuring the distance between
sharpshooters and the rebel earihworks.
A detailed account of all the opera
tons, including the battles and marches
by which the position has been attained
would be too long for your columns. A
brief resume must answer
A three months campaign in the
front, with the attempts to reach and
carry the enemy's right through Yazoo
Pass and Steele's Bayou, having demon.
strated that the flank could not be turn
ed in that way-lhe battle Of Chckasaw
Bayou having shown that single col
umn could not reach Vicksburg by a
front attack on Walnut Hills, Haines'
and Spyder's Bluffs proving altogether
too strong for the naval fodlla, and all
the canal projects failing, after immense
labor, il was determined TO attempt the
movement which has so far proved sue
cessful. The history of modern warfare
furnishes few that equal it in boldness
and audacity of conception, and, so far,
in brilliant, tr umphan' execution.
While the 18th Army Corps (Sher.
