story, to quote prices in Jeff's dominions here
in the Union army we can beat the rebs all hol-
low even in that.
The weather to-day and yesterday, has been
remarkably fine. The sun shines clear and pleas
ant with scarcely cloud to intervene. A stiff
northwest wind has been blowing steadily, in reg.
ular April style. In Vermont ii would be con-
sldered excellent weather to make sugar, as we'll
as to dry the land and prepare it forsthe plow.
Here it is still quite cool, and sunny side is pref
cradle to shade for comfort. With this wealth
er Virginia mud must soon disappear. Some
thing besides mud will have to be our excuse for
remaining here much longer. There has been
some curious rumors afloat to account for our
not moving. in the first place Gen. Hooker had
broken bis leg, by being thrown from a horse,
and therefore could not be with the army. Then
1t was said that he ordered movement to be
made, but the President countermanded the or
der. Upon this it is said, Hooker resigned and
Fremont was now in command. They are all
about equally true, probably. But whether we
we move or stay, as the boys say it is all inside
of the three years"
Quite diSgraceful affair occurred the other
day with the 9th regiment which perhaps ought
to mention. Five or six from Co. Ie of that
regiment went out to house near the picket line,
where there were negro women, for pur-
poses too foul to mention. The guard sta
toned at the house was relieved, who reported
his suspicious Of something wrong at the nearest
picket reserve. A squad of pickets was immedi-
ately sent to arrest the guilty party. They sue
ceeded, but were fred upon and two of their
number hit. do not know the extent of the
injuries received. The affair will soon undergo an
investigation, and some think the death penalty
will be inflicted upon one or more of the culprits.

The. French .eccupation of Mexico
and its conversion into, AN Empire. pn.,
der the patronage and protection of the
Emperor Of the French, is the bitterest
pill, next 70 the accession of the South,
that the Uniied States has ever been

time portions of the American, Cont.

surhmarily knocked in the head by the
French occupation of Mexico. The
question now arises, what are the Uni

must either make war upon France,
which they swear they will as soon as
they have whipped tho Southern. Con
federacy, or. they must back down, as
they know how to do better than. any
other nation. Il will never do, even
could they conquer the South, TO have
France on. the Southern border, for the
diSatfeeled Southern population would
inevitably be affording every facility to
their French neighbor to extend his ter.
litory from the Rio Grande to the Po,
tomac. They would themselves, seek
French protection, and instead Of being
made to fight against France, as the
Washington dynasty ffatters itself,
would hold out such a prize to French
ambition as would bring half a million
French bayonets to their relief. If VIC
