WNCHELL.-" For nearly forty years Mr..
Winchell has been known to the American
public as humorist and wit. Thousands Of
the present and past generations owe to him
happy hours-respite from trouble, sureease
Of sorrow. His wit and merriment that were
wont to set the table on a roar" brought
with them always pleasure to others, as well as
profit to himself. Quicker than the flash of
his wit the summons came, and where now
are all his gibes, his iests. Alas, poor
Yorickl As dead as Garrick, he. Of most
kindly heart was Winchell. With all his
love Of fun and humOr, he was open as day
to melting charity. He gave freely. His
peculiar talent was made repeatedly to do
good service in the cause of humanity. He
has given thousands Of exhibitions His Last
,oas for the benefit Of his oolntry's soldiers.
That sentence well winds up his history

via CAIRO, Feb. %.
1t has rained necessarily four days.
The sufferings of the troops therefrOm are
very great. All works on the canal are
suspended until this morning. The canal
is fully begun on scale sufficiently ex-
tensive to float any transport. It will
necessarily take some time to complete it.
Forces are still engaged at Lake Provi-
denee in cutting a channel from the river
to the Lake, and clearing bayous leading
from the lake.
A large force has been engaged some time
in opening the old YaEoo Pass, from the
Mississippi below Helena, to COldwater,
fourteen miles. Transports already run
in a part Of the way. The enemy, dis
covering this attempt at turning their
works on the YaEoo at Hainesi Bluffs have
been busy telling immense trees across the
pass in every direction. The labor Of re-
moving them reLards our progress. Still
the work progresses. The success of the
project is confidently predicted. River
