The march from the Tennessee river to Clarhs-
Vile, on the Cumberland, was marked with
great decentralization. The wagon train was
loaded down with stores, Plundcr not worth
the hauling. and negro women and children.
The officers placed 10 restraint upon the
actions Of their men, and they were allowed
to straggle, pillagc burn and destroy. We
are informed that every house standing near
the line OF march was fired and burned 10 the
ground. \ guerrilla force hovcrcd upon the
rear and TANKS OF the brigade and proved q
great ANNOYANCE in the retreat. About forty
of the black soldiers were killed and wound

took no precautions 20 keep of the enemy
In the confused struggle, the soldiers were
bushwhacEcl by the enemy with the greatest
ease. The brigade consisted OF five rcgi-
mcuts. and vet the troops we're unable to pro-
tcct their train. y number o.! the wagons
were capturcrcd ard burned by the guerrillas.
Oar officers ordered the destruction of por-

estimated that the destruction Of private and

disposition among all his acgugintanccs to

so much transcribed the Psalnist's limit.
As his age increases, the wonder grows. II s
own memory becomes inEcm with advancing
years. till at last he honestly believes that be

be. Thus il ithappcns, that, unless some family

dignity Of u Methuarlai. without being one.
Cases where persons Tcach the age of 100

But bevoad that ose there hes misty realm

down eases ''about 100" but do not say how
much ebove. Figures which may not lie up

the editor OF the Quincy Herald sat up all
night TO look at the moon. There was ring
around it whose northern and southern eX-
trcmit;cs rivalled in colorS and tint the rain
bow, and there was. in addition, "a cross
shooting through the center of the moon each
way, east and west and north and south The
cross. in color, resemb!ed the milky way"
and was apparently fifteen degrees in length
each way The circle and cross remained
istinctly visible for an hour or more, or un-
til it was faded out By the gray dawn of
morning The Herald thinks this strange
phenomenon may mean peace. We hope so
but we are afraid it will turn out all moon
