SAD AccIDENT.-Clarkston was the
scene of a sad disaster on the morning of
Saturday last, whereby well known cit-
zen, DR.. Horace Robinson, met with his
death. He started out that morning be-
fore daylight to hunt turkeys, and had
got into the woods, and was in the act of
calling them, when he was shot
by a young man who was also in the
woods hunting, and mistook the Doctors
hat for turkey. 1t was not quite light,
and the Doctor was crouched between a
stump and log, MS hat just visible over
the log, hence the mistake. An inquest
was held by Waldo r. Walt Esq, and
the young man acquitted ofall intent, &c.
by the jury.-Free Press.

LOUISVILLE, KY, March 20.-The

:. HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF THE PoTo-
MAC, March 20.-The Richmond E.r'
oniner of yesterday has an extraor-
binary leader, the tone Of which is
evidently intended to prepare the
public mind of the Sonth for serious
reverses on the line of the Kappa
hammock. 1t commences as follows:
"The active operations of the fed,
eral army under Hooker are now
commenced, and either decisive bat
tie or a retreat Of Gen. Lee must be
the speedy consequence. The latter
contingencies possible, but not prob
able, and another heavy struggle
over the line Of the Rappannock may
be safely anticipated"
After specializing upon the suppo-
sed plan Of Gen. Hooker, and the
strength and probability of the sue.
cess Of Lees forces, the Editor re-
marks:
eff, however, the Confederate force
is Dot sufficiently numerous to pre-
vent the completion of the maneu-
vre it is supposed that no course re-
mains ont to fall back upon some
point nearer Richmond and give the
enemy battle at greater distance
from his base.
There is nothing Of Importance
from the scene of active operations
in the field.

New YORK, March 23.-The steam :
err George Washington from New
Orleans, with dates to the 18th, arriv-
ed. The Era of the 18th mentions
a rumor that Port Hudson has been
evacuated, but is not credited.
The 1iribune's dispatch states that
Government has information eading
to the opinion that the rebel army
of the Rappnhannock are making
preparations to fall toward Richmond
probably to the defence Of that city.
The appreh tension Of the jeff. Davis
government is that an attack is in
tended by way Of James river This
backward movement is considered
necessary to thwart it. Refugees
confirm this theory and add that Lee S
force is much reduced by the with
drawal of Longstreet, the two Hills
and other rebel Generals with their
commands, who have gone to other
parts of the confederacy.
Paroled prisoners direct from Rich
mond state that actual want Of bread
and meat begins to press upon the
rebels.
Information has been received Of
the capture of cavalry picket guard
Of from 20 to 30 men stationed at
Occoquan by detachment ofStnart S
cavalry who came by way Of SIyck-
man $ Ford. Other detachments of
Stnart's force recently made their
appearance at several points.
The Times Washington dispatch
says, reliable Information has been
received here that the rebels are
abandoning the Rappahannock and
falling back upon their detences, in
the vicinity Of Richmond.
The War Department has received
rolls OF al regiments corr prising the
army ofthe Unitel States which show
the number of absentees or deserters
to be upwards of l25 900.

pending in the rebel Senate is one
for the confscation of the. lease, in
terest and stock owned by the Anne
ricah Telegraph Co., and other alien
enemies in the lines Of telegraph in
the Confederate States.
A leader in the Examiner says in
number and supplies we have not the
least professions to rival the North
This is not a cause Of regret, the
Southern army consists Of dlsc'plln-
ed and veteran troops.
The real number of the Confsder-
ate troops is unknown, but 100000
of such troops as are near Freder ckS-
burg are abundantly sufficient to de-
fend any country against the armies
of the world.
The destiny of the Cenfederacy is
completely staked on the struggle Of
the next three months. To obtain
complete success it is only neces-
sary to get together and keep togeth
err the officers and men who have
been trained and Injured to service
The telegram from Port Hudson
was read in the rebel Senate, and
caused lively sensation.
The Wing of the 18th mourns
over the reverses in the Southwest,
bnt suggests that q day may come
when Gen. Hooker will receive a
crushing blow, and every Union SOL
der will be needed to defend Wash

Our late raid on Cnlpepper was

PEELED to fall back.

Southern News.

WASHINGTON, March 2Oth.-Three
hundred and seventy released prison
ers arrived from Richmond to day
One of them, Mr.. Leeds of Cincin-
natl, New Orleans pilot, mentions
steady aud significant removal o!
the machinery for manufacturing or
dinance and small arms from Rich
mond to Northern Georgia. The re-
moval of ordinance stores in large
quantities has also been going on for
some time.
The possibility Of the transfer OF
the seat of war below Virginia is re-
cognized by the authorities at Rich
mond.
Upon the interesting point of the
duration of the war, Mr.. Leeds said
it might last six months after next
crop, but he thought it would be en-
ded with that crop.
If Ficksburg should be taken It
would end almost Immediately, for
the armies would be cut off from
their supply Of meat, which is in
Texas. He said that every pound OF
meat eaten in the Richmond prisons
came from there.
He mentioned a conversation be-
tween Gen. Winder and another otti-
GER, we'll authenticated, in which
Gen. Winder said it would be ended
by August.
Mr.. Leeds declares there is q gen
eral feeling among tho soldiers from
ali the Southern States favorable to
ending the war and returning to the
Union.
The prisons in the South are full
Of deserters awaiting trial by court
martial.
Military executions are so common
as to cease being commented upon.

Mob Law.

To-day the election to ratify the
Amended Constitution comes off; and
as many have tried to circulate re-
port that DO one would be permitted
to vote against it, we hope our citi-
zens will show that they are not be-
hind our Congressman, Brown, in
liherality, in permitting all to vote
He said on Monday, in his speech at
the Court House, "let all come out
and vote; If any oppose it let them
come up aud vote against it, like
men, We hope the friends Of the
New State will not resort to mob vi
olence, or anything calculated to
stir up bad feelings, and prevent any
from voting. We are satisfied that
it will carry in spite of its enemies.
We know that threats have been
made, and by men in Office !; those
whose sworn duty it is to enforce the
law, and preserve the peace, but we
have no idea that they will attempt
to enforce them. Some have even
thought fit to talk Of baptising, in
the waters Of the Mouongahela, our
press; but let them beware of raising
the wind lest they reap the whirl-
wind. We defy them, and dare them
to do their worst. We shall pursue
the "even tenor of our way" and
while we are battling for the gov
eminent and the restoration and pre-
servation of the Union with clear
conscience, we know the good sense
of our people will prevent any resort
to mob Law.

he surely must have been. None other than
such one could ever have stirred and mixed
and jumbled up such a horrible compound of

in diameter, and call it a seal. We have in
our day gobbled down much lobscouse, and
it staid on our stomach, so we can stand that
