"capt. Hatch" late Copperhead AIayor
Of Cincinnati, is trying 10 swindle that city
out ofs6 ESQ, which he claims as due to him
as fees for issuing that number Of licenses
from his office. Nothing stands between him
and the money but an Ordinance which pro-
yldes that the Mayor shall receive IS 900 per
annun, and no other fee, emolument or per-
quisitc whatever. This s'Capt Hatch'' is one
ofthe most utter scamps located within the
borders Of Cincinnati. During his admins
tra'ion as Mayor, that city was continually
disgzaced By his conduct. At one time, while
drunk, in lager beer gsrdcn, he assaulted 4
citizen, got badly whipped, and then he had
the citizen arrested, brought before one Of his
minions, and heavily fined for whipping the
Mayor. lie deserves aposition inside the rob

PREsESTAT1oS.-The pzlyates and nom
commissioned officers Of the 14th Illinois
volunteers, stationed at Memphis, on the 11th
inst. presented their brigade commander,
Gen. 'estch, with 4 splendid sword and pair
Of spurs, valued at about $500. The pre-
sentation speech was made by Sergeant L.
Worcester, Of Whitehall, in this State, and
the General made an elegant and fitting re-
sponse. The whole performance was Of q
deeply interesting, and, We may add, novel
character. It is nearly the only instance on
record where the privates Of . single regi-
meut have thus testified their appreciation Of
thei1 brigade commander.

like several of her predecessors Of uncnyia-

and retrograde in Russian policy. She is the
sister Of the Kipg Of PRUSSIA, and governs
him as entirely as she does her husband, die

From the Mobile News
The warm days Of spring arc rapidly ripen
imp the plans of g military camyaign on the
gTandest scale. The enemy il everywhere in me-
ton, moving aud marshsling his troops for some
great effort Fooled ct Charleston and Vichs-
burg, there appears TO be bus Que field upon
which he can strike with hopes Of success, and
ing immense forces in Middle Tenues- -ee for the
purpose of overwhelming Gen Bragg and brush
ing from his path sll obstacles TO rapid inva-
sion of Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi. The
Yankee papers had before informed Us that the
policy Of Rosecrsns was to await the results of
operations on the Mississippi and after Yieks-
burg and Port Hudson should hevs fallen. and
with them the possession Of tbas great river end
its valley, he would be prsPaged io move in cen
junction with the forces of General Grant, then
engaged in the West. But Rosecrans can no
longer wsit for The reduction Of Yieksburg
VicksbuTg stands and ths Yankee programme
must be altered 20 rae5t the view Of the case.
There is little doubt that Lincoln is pouring in
heavy reinforcements upon Tennessee, and that
taere is the chosen field for the next great battle
He win fnd the rebels ready at that point as
well as st Chsrleetsu sud on the Mississippi
Meantime, the Yankee papers revive rumoTs
of an invasion of Maryland We infer feOm
this that Hooker's forces have been somewhat
reduced to strengthen Bosecrsus, and hence the
apprehension about Maryland, The Yankees
have persisleHtly maintained for weeks past that
q large portion Of Lees army, under Longstreet
and Jackson, has been dispatched for the in7s-
sion of Kentucky, endit is known that Burnside
with at least one army corps from tho grand
army of The Potomac has kesn sent to meet the
movement. 1t may be that they have over
reached themselves by abundant caution and
action on false informatiou, and while they are
running to tho West to cover Kentucky they
may have left the Potomac line weekly defended
Events may soon occur TO cause countermarch
from Kentucky 70 Washington, What is GER
tain, is that Gen. Lee does not mean to allow
lighting Joe Hooker to remain IN idieHess and
rust bis arms in Virginia If he doesn't stack
Lee, Lee viii beat him up IN his quarters, and
test tie quality Of bis g fighting soubriques
Meantime the Conioderstes are armed at all
points, and stand resdy for she shock with the
best and brsvost troops that ever stood in hsr-
ness. May the God Of battles be with them in

The Mobile Register and Ai5eTtissr Of the
llth inst, in speaking Of tho rev press assOci-
alton, says:
The satisfactory state Of the press corraspoE-
denes is due to the life and energy infused into
the system by our new press a5sociatioa. Il is
bat one month to-day siuee tho organization
was completed and began its labors, with the
results we have already stated. Among tho in
eidents, unseen By the public eye, connected
with these laboTs, is the fact that the veteran
President Of the association, Df. II " Gibbes,
of the SOiiibs Car0liaiaR, went to Charleston,
and, rolling up his sleeves, set himself 70 work
as press correspondent, thus giving example
and encouragement to his younger employees.
La connection with this subject we may state
that Mr.. J. s. Thrasher, tie general sUperin-
tendent Of the association, has Just returned
from visit to the field of active events ia Mis-
sissippi, which he has covered with net work
Of correspondents Here he met tho indsiati-
gable president of the southwestern telegraph
company, with whom he concluded arrange
ments for the transmission of news over this
line, which places the press Of Mississippi, Lou
isisna and Tennessee on the same favorable
footing that's held in regard to telegraph ar
rangemonts by the press Of the other States OF
the ConfedeTaeY, and we learn from him that he
Is much pleased with tho fair and liberal spirit
with which Mr.. Van Horne, the president Of the

such results IS those before US, after q month

The atlantic Tele.rnnl,.

ihe Atlantic telegraph prcject-now in the
fuil tide OF prosperity-seems destined to sn
early realization. The circular and prospectus
Of the company. under the senction Of Cyrus "
Field, Of New York, set forth its prospects in
terms which are very inviting 60 capitalists and
hattering to our hopes for the eonsumaation so
long deferred. 1t is estimated that ihs prof IS
OF business to be transacted through the cable
viii enable the company to pay eighteen per
cent. interest 10 stockholders aud also to lay
eight additional cables within the next seven
years, without calling for more capital. The
line would thus consist, in 1870, of nine cables,
each OF which will do its separate work. When
this extensive machinery is IN operation, the
amount OF business done must be immense, and
the profits proportional Il is stated that tho
California overland telegraph hiss already paid
Tor iseit. II this IS true, the pecunafy pros
poets of the Atlantic telegraph are brilliant
The chances for profit Of course rest upon the
question OF feasibility. There are dsts, h0w-
ever, which seem to settle the question, so far
as it can be settled beforehand Msssrs. Glass
Elliott u Co, Of London, the great msnufae-
tuTeTs of submarine cable, submit G statement
OF Inc various cables laid by them, which
anonnt IN the aggregate to three thousand zine
nuncr5d and twentY-nine miles, all of WHICH is
now IN working order, except a short line on
the English coast, which was taken 10 on ac-
count OF the interiersncs Of ships anchors
One Of their cables, connecting Malta and Alex
andria, is one thousand five hundred ard thirty
i've miles long, or nearly as long as the Atlantic
cable. lt has been working year, in the most
Satisfactory manner Some Of their cables lie
in fifteen hundred fathoms, or mile aud three
quarters depth Of wster
The history Of submarine telegrapbiug is con
tanned IN the brief and unpyetentious record of
Messrs Glass, Elliott & Co. They commenced
eight years sgo to lay telagraphie cables. aud
within that tins have spannsd the inland ssz5
of Europe with 10 less than thirty cables
They connect England with Ffancs, Holland,
Denmark and the Isle of Mar; France With
Algiers; Italy with Corsica and Sardinia; Egypt
with Spain; India with Ceylon; Sweden with
Denmark; besides many points Of lesser note,
which complete 8 network of communication
that bids defiance to all the obstacles Of sDace.
They are now connecting EGgland with Iadia
by series Of submarine cables and overland
telegraph lines, which will reach nearly half
around the world. Nearly foGf thoasaad miles
Of their submarine telegraph Is now operating
in the bottom Of the sea- and if their assertion
nsy be believed, no cable laid outside Of an
shorage ground has ever cost a shilling for re-
pairs. With these results accomplished ia 50
short space of time what may We not expect
u the future Chicago Times
