Rebel protection.

The Louisville Journal publishes two
captured rebel letters taken at PEGRAMs
defeat. One of them addressed to the
editor Of the Knoxville Register is very
interesting:

CAMP 4rn EAST Tenn. CAVALRY

NEAR NASHVILLE, April Goth, 1856
Eiior Of the Nashville Union:
Another scout has just arrived at my
camp from East Tennessee, with some 80
recruits for our regiment. In coming
through Powells Mountain, ia Hancock
county, his party was fred on by the
rebels. One man named JAMES T. HUFF
was severely wounded in the neck and
right shoulder, and had to be left at a
rebel house for treatment. Some eight
or ten were perhaps captured, whilst the
others made tracks for the United States.
They have laid aside their Dixie clothes,
and put on the "Union blue" and are
now ready to noun and HE away to the
hills Of East Tennessee, TO return the fire
of the cowardly bushwhackers.
A few more arrivals, and we will be
ready to take the field along with Co.

nothing for their country, and will not
do so without Offices, will stand aside

HOW LOYAL TENNEssEEANs LOOK.
u. f. Taylor, writing to the Chicago Jour
nal from the army of the Cumberland, says:
Parties of loyal Tennesseeans are coming
in almost daily and offering their sturdy blows
and strong hearts for the old flag | saw a
strange looking party the other day, one hun
dred and fifty strong, attired in butternut and
shirt sleeves, mounted upon horses of every
tint and action, from blue to calico, and from
limp to lope-Rosnante was there and the
steed of DR.. Syntax, and so, for that matter,
were Sancho Panza and ''the knight of the
sorrowful countenance." Equipped with flint
locks, squirrel guns, and the old Queens arm
they looked as if they had ridden right out
of a dead and gone age, bravey down into our
own. They proved to be men from Middle
Tennessee, who had travelled, like the no.
mades, long night, to ''fall in" to the feder-
al line.

due by the Western railroad, according to the
above estimate, which is made up from the

1t is not intended by these statements to
detract in any way from the value OF the
Western railroad 1t is well-managed COM

Boston and Worcester. They are both profit

debt, while the other owes large debt, chief
ly payable in currency which is every day
growing more valuable, in comparison with the
money in which their receipts are collected.
The net profits of the Western railroad,
upon the whole investment for the ten years,
1852 to 1862, averaged $500 per cent.
The larger profits have arisen from the fact
that by the assistance of the state guaranty
they were enabled to borrow money at 5 per
cent, and now the state may justly claim its
part Of the profit. The Boston and Worces-
ter nave paid large dividends upon its whole
stock; paid all its debts, including one half
million dollars; made extensive purchases of
land and improvements to the road, and has a
large surplus on hand loaned to the United
States.
