April IA, says the news to-day from Brashear
City is of the utmost Importance. The enemy
evacuated his works at Centeryiae last night,
but his force will probably be captured entire,
as he is enclosed between Giovefss forces on tie
one side, and those of Emory and Weitzel on
the other. He is leaving his guns and ammu-
milton behind.
The steamer Diana, lately taken from the
U. s., certainly be Eecaptured, as the u.
S. sieamer Clifton has removed the distractions
in the river, and is rapidly approaching her.
The ram Queen of the West was captured
from the enemy, 10 Grand Lake, at 10 o'clock
this morning. Capt. Fuller, commander, and
all of her crew and officers, are now prisoners
at Berwick Ferry. The capture of the Queen
ofthe West is most important, and | consider
the whole affair as victory ofimmense acTan-
tagc to the Onion cause.

nE The American correspondent of the
London Spectator defines the Copperhead
as creature "relnarkable for its thick
beadedness, for its venom and for its treach-
ery." The political copperhead, says this
writer, is a more dangerous anemy by far
at this moment than the southern rattle
snake, who at least gives warning ere he
strikes.

A CoPPERnEAD THAwED oUr--The
Racine AdVocate contains the following:
NJ. NJ. Cothren got on the Racine and
Mississippi Railroad cars at Clinton juno
ton, one day last week, and soon tegan to
ephghten the passengers on the state of the
country. lie assured them that he was
elected Chief Justice by an overwhelming
vote, and took especial pains TO declare
that he sOds opposed TO the Taos Of Con
gress on the subject Of drafting, as well as
to the confsca.ion laws. and that he did
not believe in the constitutionality Of SOL
diers poting. His whole conversation
showed him to be a Copperhead of the
most malignant stripe, and when we take
into consideration the fact that he sup
posed he was about to take the posi-
ton of Chief Justice of this STATE, it shows
what an infamous disgrace the people have
barely escaped.

How TO JorN THE PARrs.-At dinner
party given in this city in the year l775,
4 gentleman of considerable notoriety as
wit, was asked: "Pray what is a Tory 7"
He replied. "A Tory is creature whose
head in England. while bis body is in
America, and I think the two parts ought
to be Joined by stretching the neck" We
have still persons among US not qnllk e this
description of the Tory. whose heads are
in Richmond while their bodies are in New
York; aud though we might not recon.
mend the old revolutionary wits plan o.
bringing the two par together BY stretch,
ing the intervening membranes, we should
certainly not object to seeing the body sent
where the head is.-Nslc York Evening
