LUMBERINo.-Lumbermen are prepar-
ing for heavy winters work, securing
and getting on supplies, so as TO be ready
to drive ahead vigorously so soon as win
ter fairly sets in. There is now every
indication of the largest numbering oper-
ations in both Sauilac and Huron coun.
ties that have been carriad on for years,
judging from the notes of preparation that
reach us from every quarter. The only
drawback seems to be lack of hands,
and the large wages being offered will
undoubtedly do considerable towards
bringing in supply.-Sanilac Je6erso-
aian.

AMERICAN AUToMATA-The St. Paul
(Minn) Pioneer says that gentleman of
that city has produced after three and a
half years of close application, some of the
most wonderful automata the world has
ever seen. They consist of six figures,
full size Of life, three of each sex dressed
in the fashion, and so closely resembling
living persons as to deceive all but the
closest observers. These figures each ap-
pear on the stage each with a harpeon
(whatever that may be,) and at sign
made by the leader, they salute the aud
ience aud commence playing. They per-
form a large number of melodies keeping
perfect time and producing full harmony.

Dcseztcrs say TINT the rebels have LETT our

Lco's Increment toward Fredericksburg WAS
to cover his retreat, the intention Of which IL
to movo south by way of Gordousyille. This
belief seems to be confirmed By cavalry re.
conno!ssance .as far as Cu1pepper, whore no
enemy was found. Tho rebel army Is without
doubt "badly domorallzed" and thinned by
dcscrtion. Those competent to Judge catl-
mate It's strength st not moro thnn 10000. It
Is weakened by tho reinforcencnts. sent to
Charleston and numerous descrtlons. Con"
ecr,ptlon Is being vigorously enforced in that
portion Of EMtcrn Virginia lying south and

Tho negroes arc being sont further south,

Immediately oil our coEps along the Eives

remained until morning. when the enemy had

fully less, and tho great American liberty

A NICuT OF HORROR.

veil and disclose to us q scene Of horror |
and carnage which can only find its par
sIlel in the butcheries Of the Sioux or the |
1nassacres Of the French revolution An |

most at q time when his Department Is
threatened by the mercilcss foe, QuantreL
The threats were public ones, aud yet,
this man Ewing, unworthy tho name OF

defense, and returns to find the beau
1iiul and thrifty town Of Lawrence,
smouldering heap Of ruins, and one hun
d1cd ant rightly Of her citizens butchered
in cold blu 4. He finds that 1t Is time to
bcstir himself and accordingly goes
through tho empty form Of d1spatch1ng
troops efter tho rctrcating enemies when
they hare safely crossed the border and
gone to their homes to resume their occu-
1,ations as good Union menl
The heart sickens at tho few details
d this terrible calamity which have
flashed oycr tho wires from far-
uG suffering Kansas, her wounds
bleeding afrcsh In the sacred causo OF
liberty. What pen can depict tho horrors
OF that midnight nssau1tf a beautiful
city wrapped in flames; 1cnds incarnato
rushing through the streets and shooting
down unarmcd citizens, pursuing them to
Their homes, and butchcring them with
wives and mothers clinging to them and
begging for mercy; hurting them into
wells and cistcrns; casting them into the
gccthing flames; zobbing, plundcring and
pillaeing, until, satlatcd with thcir hcllisf
