Scene ut the Sanitary Fair i'll 81.
Louis.

The Missouri RepuJlicdqs gives a
well executed wood cut illustration
representing scene on (which it com
1nents as follows:
In this. instance we think it will
be acknowledged that Mackwitz has
done full justice to the memorable
scene in the Sanitary Fair at ST.: Lou
is, when two negroes We're introduced
at one of the tables in the Luczede
Cye Saloon, and young ladies' Of the
highest responsibility were required
to furnish them with refreshments.
AS will berccollected, there was some
sensation at the time among I'LL class
es ofwhite people, and quite strcnu-
o1ls effort was madcto keep the scene
out Of the newspapers, lest it should
damage the prospects Of the Fair.-
The press took different view of mat
ter, and commented upon the outra-
ges as it deserved, and as the people
justified. Since then the skill of the
artist has ben called into requisition,
and the engraving herewith present
eel gives it with a fidelity which will
be acknowledged by almost every
one. If things so on as they have
commenced, these scenes, though ex-
ceedingly repulsive in this instance,
will have to be endured, for there
seems to be no limit to tile f;,naticism

News via Washington.

WASHINGTON, Jan. give have authori-
ty for saying that the statement in several
Northern journals that General Butler had
succeeded in affecting an exchange of all
our paroled prisoners captured previous to
September 1st 1863, is incorrect.
A letter from a general officer at Knox
vile received here, says the rebels are
gathering together all their energies, pre-
paratory to a grand raid through Tennessee
and Kentucky, to get horses and supplies
If they are unsuccessful in Kentucky the
writer says they may be tempted to cross
the Ohio.
Gen. Halleck having replied in the mega
tive to Secretary Chase's inquiry as to
whether there would be danger of supplies
reaching the rebels if trade restrictions
were removed from the States of Kentucky
and Missouri, Mr.. Chase has prescribed and
the President has sanctioned regulations
opening those States to unrestricted com
mercial intercourse. They same policy will
soon be followed in Delaware and Mary
land.

Destitution in the Rebel Army.

New YORK, Jan. pa special to the
Herald from the Army of the Potomic 26th,
says: had long interview to-day with
an officer of high military rank in the Ar
my of the Potomac, who has had oppor-
tunities for frequent conversations with de-
serters from the rebels. He does not believe
any part of Lees army has been sent out of
Virginia. lie does believe there has been a
fight among the rebels on the south side of
the Rapidan, that there is a general distrust
of the fidelity of rebel pickets, that the SOL
dicrs in Lees army are anxious to grasp at
the earliest period the olive branch of peace
held out to them by the amnesty proclama-
ton, take tho oath of allegiance and become
again good cit zens, that there is actual des-
titution in the rebel army, that their supply
of rations is very short, and it is with the
greatest difficulty that enough reaches the
army to make even the small daily issue
that is furnished. Supply forageis so short
that cavalry horses are cared for very poor
ly, and nearly all picketing is done by rebel
infantry, the object being to keep their
horses in condition for service when the
spring campaign opens.

NASHVILLE Jan. 27.-Later information
from Gen. Dodge, at Pulaski, Tenn, under
date of 2Gth. says: The enemy crossed the
Tennessee river last night, attacked Athens,
and were defeated, and are now trying to
get back. The troops at Athens had mostly
gone to Florence to attack Johnston's forces
crossing there, and Col. Harrison, with six
hundred rebels and two pieces Of artillery,
took advantage of their absence. Still later
advlces say that Dodge was badly whipped.
Johnston is at Florence. In all probability
the raid is at an end.

From the Army Of the Potomac.

ARMY OF THE PoToMAC, Jan. 2.-It was
two Mississippi regiments that opened the
ball Saturday last by attempting to fight
their way out of the rebel lines for the pIlr-
po e Of taking the oath of allegiance to
the United States. Unfortunately they did
not succeed, though they made brilliant
attack upon the troops that were ordered
to resist their progress. 1t is expected that
full information will reach here shortly by
which some idea may be formed of the
losses on both sides.
From twenty-five to forty deserters came
into the picket lines of the I'd corps daily
and as many to the 3D. corps, notwithstand-
ing four skirmish lines have been thrown
out by the rebels to prevent it.
A construction train of the military rail-
road was attacked this evening by guerril-
las at Gravel switch, about one and hall
miles from Alexandria. Twelve shots were
fired. Gen. Shlough Immediately despatch
ed squadron of men in pursuit.
