at every call of patriotism upon their
pocksts. Others still live too much in
the company Of Cppporheads, whose reb.

no important news to write now; but on
the 9th, the rebels undertook To blow up
one Of our forts. But they had not mined
far enough, their excavation only reaching
under our picket line. The rebels had
massed their forces at this point with the
intention Of breaking our line. At the mo-
ment OF the explosion, they leaped over
their works, when they saw they had not
injured the main fort in the least, and our
artillery and musketry opening on them,
they went back over their works. We be-

there will be some tall fighting or running,
Just as the rebels think best. If they stand
and fight, victory is surely ours; if they

are much pleased with the call for more
men, although l suppose it is making many

We have received news OF the death OF
