Presentation OF "a Magnificent Carr
,'iase and Pair to MRS. Governor
Yates

The Cincinnati Conamercidi has the fol-
lowing in regard to certain presents to
Mrs. Gov. Yates, about which the Chicago
papers have been making much ado:
1t is very well known that persons who
make costly presents to official parsonage are
unlikely to do so out of pure personal regard,
and, in ninety-nine cases out Of hundred, ex-
pect, through some official of semi-official
channel, to get their money back. 1t is a pity
Governor Yates had not sense enough to return
the ELEGANT six-seated phaeton," costing
nearly one thousand dollars" and pair of no.
BILE Kentucky bays" ''at cost of fifteen hum
dred dollars" and harness ''superb, that ''cost
one hundred and fifty dollars, total, two
thousand, six hundred and fifty dollars--to his
admirers" If those admirers are men whose
good opinion is desirable, they would have had
a great deal more respect for him on foot than
in the elegant" drawn by the ''noble," and so
on. Now the Governor will be obliged to
have couple of servants to take rides with
him; and it will be positively necessary they
should wear white gloves and coats, outglitter-
ing in buttons the breasts of field officers. A
severe case or two of public virtue in promin-
ent men just now would not have an unwhole-
some influence on human affairs.

VickSburI.

On the 14th of January, 1861, the fol-
lowing dispatch appeared in all the daily
newspapers:
JACKSON, Miss. January, -, 1S61.-Artillery
was ordered to Vicksburg this morning, by
Governor Pettus, to hail and bring to all pass
ing boats.
This was the beginning of rebel inter-
ference with the navigation of the Misss-
sippi River. The artillery sent from Jack
son consisted Of the Quitman Battery, and
had brilliant reception by the people of
Vicksburg, who were very anxious to have
their "rights,' and have at last got them.
On the night. Of the 18th of January, 1861,
the Quitman Battery attempted to fire On
the steamer A. o. Taylor, Captain COL
LIER, and were only prevented from doing
SO by their awkwardnes in getting the
printing OF their guns wet.

by this time may also have been seen. The In

tons. 1t was SO foggy and smoky at the time
that objects could only be distinctly seen for
about one-fourth of mile, and our men did not
think it safe to follow further, so they gather

More Cheering News.

After the surrender of Vicksburg, Gen.
SHERMAN moved against Gen. JOHNSON,
defeating him in general engagement,
and capturing 1900 prisoners.
Gen. BRAGG has retreated from Chat
tanooga to Administering up that great
strategic point without battle. ROSE
GRAMS has taken 1900 prisoners in his for
ward movement.
The news of the capture of Port Hudson,
which was given yesterday merely as a
rumor, is fully confirmed. The surrender
took place on the sth inst, and on the 9th
Gen. BANKS took possession. The rebels
lost 1000 men, thirty-fve field pieces,
twenty-five siege guns, and 10000 stand
of small arms. The principal obstacles to
the opening of the Mississippi are now re-
moved, but we fear it will be sometime be-
fore steamers will run from St. Louis to
New Orleans without danger of guerrilla
attacks. 1t looks very much as if the
heavy fighting at the West was about over,
and that we shall have to lend the East a
helping hand to finish up their part Of the
work.
Gen. LEE has finally succeeded in
making retreat across the Potomac. On
Saturday night, LEE withdrew from the
line of the Antietam and massed his whole
army on the neck of land opposite Falling
Water creek. This neck is surrounded on
three sides by the Potomac, thus etfectu-
ally protecting the tanks of the rebel army
and enabling them to proceed with the
work of crossing in comparative security.
Our cavalry overlook their rear guard, and
captured about 1000 prisoners, and killed
Gen. PETTIGREw, of South Carolina, dis
tinguished rebel officer who was wounded
and taken prisoner in the Peninsula cam
paign. We have endeavored to dissuade
our readers from indulging in anticipations
of "bagging the rebel army but the per-
sistency of the telegraph in holding out the
belief in the probability Of such an event,
will cause some disappointment.
We have the unexpected news of an
other attack on the rebel defences OF
Charleston. The point attacked was Nor
ris Island, just below Fort Sumter. The
capture of this Island will lead to the re.
duction Of Sumter by regular seige.
There are many interesting particu-
| lars of the riot in New York Our lates
dispatch announces that the riot was sub.
siding, and that plumber was the main
object of the mob. Five New York city
regiments have been ordered home, and
we presume the draft will be proceeded
with as if nothing had occurred to inter-
ruDt it.

The indications are that the govern
will demand, under the consumption law,
about four hundred thousand men. The
levy will be made by Congressional dis
tricts, instead of directly on the States,
as heretofore, and the number each dis
trict will have to raise by draft will not
vary much from two thousand, two hun

apportioned to each State east of the
Rocky Mountains, will be as follows:

Before Meade's and Grants splendid

"pedantic," West Pointers were "mar-

West Pointers "could not be trusted"
West Pointers "secretly sympathized with

CAIRO, May l4.-The very latest dates from
Gen Grants army are to Thu sday. At that
time it was eighteen miles from Grand Gulf en-
camped near the Big Black river. He had not
vet possession Of any part of the railroad between
Iicksburg and jackson. There is probably no
truth in the reported battle at Clinton.
Gen. Grant is receiving heavy reintorcements.
4 new overland route for troops and trains has
been made from Young's Point, to the river be-
low, which is only eight miles long, and greatly
expedites the forwarding of men and supplies.
Ten negro regiments have been formed, and
Gen. Thomas who is just from Memphis, thinks
that ten more can be formed.

CAIRO, May lathe troops all the way from
Memphis to Young's Point are going to reinforce

Judge Kellogg, who left Grant headquarters
on Thursday last, says the report of fight har-
ing taken place at Clinton is untrue.
Gen Grant will endeavor to cut the railroad
between Vicksburg and Jackson, and battle
expected in the vicinity of Black River Bridge.
The Jackson Appeal says that Bowen's loss at
Bayou Pierre was about one thousand, and that
the rebel killed and wounded were left on the
field
General Tracy, Lieut. Col Pettis and Major
luckerman, We're killed, and Col. Garnet and
MAJOR Harley severely wounded.
The Eicksburg correspondent of the Appeal
takes gloomy view of matters, and says that

people and the military
