GooD-A traitor. the other day
bought o. S. military coat at Aliens
store. in Oregon. Mo. Dsl. Garter, .
good Union boy. seeing the rascal with
it on. tore it of him. just after he had
purchased, and before be had time to ee,
warm in it. As some soft-she Union
men began to elevate their tails about it,
Capt. Thumma. to whose Company Dsl.
belongs, wrote down to Col. Severence,
the Commandent then at St. Joseph,
about it, stating that the so-called out
rsge was done under an order issued last
Summer. to the effect that ".ll persons
wearing o. 8. military uniforms, or any
part thereof. who did not belong to the
service. were liable to have the same t.
ken from tbem." and inquiring what
should be done with the cost. The reply
came that the coat should be returned to
Mr.. Allen. who was . loyal merchant,
and who had. no doubt. sold tho garment
innocently. So tho question was settled
that the traitor had no right to wear the
coat. This must have made some Of the
galvanized, weak-kneed Union msn. in
Oregon feel rather mean. There are Q
few of that stripe in that region who in.
variably sympsthiss with rebels on all
such occasions. Never mindl The 10y
81 people are 'spotting'' them. We arc
told that the Prophet. with whom Jim.
Fostsr lsft his mantle. takes high legal
ground in the matter.

Pike, from Memphis. brings dates to The
Sd. Gen. G. H. Morgan's successor j.
Gen. A. j. Smith.
The Vicksburg Wbig of last Friday
reported the capture of Port Hudson by
tho Union army. This is supposed to
have been designed as ruse. It is prob.
ably nearer the truth to say that the at
tack has not been made yet upon the
place.
Our forces at Vicksburg on Friday
were busy repairing the crevasses made
last summer, to save the camps from in
undstion.
The water in the old canal is now ful-
" six feet deep. but runs languidly.
Occasionally the enemy throw shell in.
