feat Of running past tie rebel batteries of

broadslde guns, making as much smoke as
possible, under cover of which the transports
should endeavor to pass unseen. \ warm.

In the New York Commercial Adrer-
tiser, of Saturday, we find an official state
ment of the strength of the army of the
Potomac. Only few days ago, news
paper publisher at Alexandria and petty
army officer were sentenced to imprison-
ment and hard labor for giving the num-
bers of division or corps Of the army.
The revelation comes in the shape of a
letter from the medical director of the
army to General Hooker, in which he
says:
The whole number of sick were, on the 2Sth
of March ultimo, ten thousand seven hundred
and seventy-seven. The corps exhibiting the
greatest ratio of sick are those in which there
Is the greatest number of new regiments.
Thus, the first corps having ratio OF 9O.O2
per 1000, has, according to the data in this
office, eighteen new and twentye-one old regi-
ments. The sixth corps, with ratio of 46. 10
per 1000, has only four new regiments and
thirty old ones. The ratio of sick for the
whole army is 67.64 per 1000.
It is an easy arithmetical feat to deduce
from the above data that the whole
strength of the army on the day named
was 159,2SS. 1t can scarcely be supposed
that General HOOKER intended to give the
enemy the roster of his army but on any
other hypothesis the publication is blum
der of the grossest kind-one which com
mitted by a subaltern, would justly be
punishable by death itself.

The WinnebagO Indians.

We learn that preparations are being
made to remove the Winnebago Indians
to their new reservation on the Missouri
river, and that they will probably be en-
barked in the course of a week or two.
The agent has fully explained to them the
intentions of the Government, and the
chiefs and old men readily acquiesce in all
the arrangements for their future DISPOSE
ton, but the young bloods are inclined to
be rebellious, and it is feared that it will be
necessary to use some force in capturing
and getting them on board the boats. It
is said they held council, from which the
"old fogies" were excluded, and passed
some belligerent resolutions, which will
probably be reconsidered in due time to
save them from encountering the military
force under Col. MILLER We congratu-
late the people of Blue Earth county on
the removal Of the greatest drawback they
have ever had to their peace and prosperi-
ty. The opening up of the Reservation to
white labor, will vostly enhance the
wealth Of the country, and the commercial
importance of Mankato.

Thrilling Incident.

The Lawrence (Mass.) Sentinel publishes
the following extract from letter received
from Mr.. James Evans Fallon, Third As
sistant Engineer on the steam sloop Mis-
sissippi, when she was destroyed at Port
Hudson, on the 18th Of March
would give you an account of the fight
at Port Hudson, but you will have read it
in the papers ere this reaches you. One
fact | will state-I was standing at my
station when shell burst beyond me, a
piece of it hit my sword and broke it short
or by the hilt, and it sent the hilt plump
into my stomach, which sat me down
alongside the bell pull (Which was against
all rules), and made me see more stars,
&c.
Shortly after was struck with splin-
ter, which broke one of my ribs, and made
me senseless to all outside, but I had all
my senses. | heard the order given to
take me below to the cockpit; then I
heard the Surgeon ask them why they
brought dead man down; then heard
the orders given to get all the wounded
out of the ship. There | was, laid out
duloHS CHe uedu lleH anu diIlputateQ limbs,
unable to let them know that was alive;
all the wounded were taken out, was
left; then they commenced to fire the
ship forward and aft. The man who had
been detailed to fire her forward passed by
me; l thrust out my hand and hit him on
the leg he stopped; l beckoned for him
to put his head down, and I whispered to
him that was not dead he took me up
in his arms and put me into boat, and
took me to the Essex; here l lay until
daylight, then l was put on board the
Richmond, there [ was made comfortable
by Mr.. Dove, Of Andover, Third Assistant
Engineer of the Richmond.
am still weak from my injuries, but
will soon be all right. l am doing duty
