The War News.


The news from the seat of war this week, is
favorable to the federal forces, although the
different dispatches somewhat conflicting.
From the mass of reports, mostly of an unreli-
able character, we make the following summary
of the most important army operations
The news from Mobile gives an account of the
surrender of Fort Morgan to Admiral Farragut.
The n Y Herald's Mobile correspondent sums
up the operations in that quarter, and says =
eve compelled the evacuation of Fort Powell,
surrender of Fort Gaines, and almost destroyed
and compelled the surrender of Fort Morgan,
heretofore considered the strongest Notifications
in the United States, taken l,5OO prisoners,
100 pieces of canon, vast quantity of small
arms and munitions of war, also provisions
enough to feed the garrison for six months
We have captured and have ready for use the
ram Tennessee, the strongest war vessel afoat,
also several other war vessels. We have penned
up three English Blockade runners. All this
cost the army one killed and ten wounded, the
loss Of the 1ecHmssh and part of her crew and a
very few casualties on another ship.
The news from Tennessee is to the effect that
a considerable body of cavalry under the rebel
Gen. Wheeler were marching in the direction of
Nashville. They had torn up and burned seve-
raj miles of the Nashville and Chattanooga
RdllfOaQ. Inc latest lnLelllg6uCG reports IudJ
Wheeler had captured the town of Franklin
General Rousseau (federaD is reported as being
in pursuit of Wheeler.
The news from Atlanta Georgia. is conflict
ing. Some of the dispatches state that Gene
ral Sherman had got possession of Atlanta,
while Others report that he has moved south
in order to compel Hood (the commander at At
lanta) to move out of his works and risk bat
tie with an inferior force Of young boys and
old men Unofficial reports state that battle
was fought near East Point between Sherman
and Hood, in which the rebel army was cut in
two with heavy loss, and in which Gen. Har-
dee was killed. This news needs confirmation.
The news from Grants army is rather en-
couraging than otherwise Considerable fighting
has been going on between the opposing forces,
Grant endeaYorng to get possession Of the
Weldon railroad and Lee trying to hold it. The
latest accounts state that Grant has possession
of several miles of the road. The design of
Grant appears to be- to get possession Of the
road in order to cut off supplies from the rebel
army. The fighting is reported to have been
severe with heavy losses on both sides-the
rebel loss the heaviest, being upwards Of 900
The rebel Gen. Early is still in the Shenan-
dOah valley, with headquarters at Bunker Hill,
between Martinsburg and Winchester He has
established telegraphic communication with
Richmond. His cavalry force is said to number
1000.
An Indian fight took place on the goth ult.,
on the plains near Knife river, between Gen.
Sullys command and 5000 Indians. The lat
ter were defeated with a loss of $50. Sully's
loss was killed and 20 or 80 wounded.

Who WOULDN'T BE A PRINTER p
Who wouldn't be a printer when printers
are frequently the favored recipients of
so many sweet things For instance, this
week Mr. Joseph Teel brought us in from
his farm a bucket full Of as sweet and deli
ciOus lot Of peaches as are ever
raised in any country. Mr.. Teol raised
some fifteen bushels of peaches this year.
Again, Mr. W. T. Wheeloek presented us
with musk-meon, weighing l6 IL pounds,
and a. number of onions, weighing a pound
each. TIL melon was of choice variety
and "sweeter than a peach" Also, MIR.
John Hancock laid upon our table water
melon (mountain sprout) which measured
two feet and two inches in length, and in
wardly it was luscious and all that a water
melon could be. And last, though not
least, Alr. Charles Toelner gave us couple
Of large, 'high-toned' water melons.
All the above gentlemen will please ac-
cept our heartfelt thanks for the presents.

PORK RAISING. .-Latterly, many per
sons in the county have started in with good
earnest to raise pork. We are glad to
chronicle the fact that some attention is be-
ing paid to this branch of business. The
''curing Of bacon for our own market, and
for the trade which will brighten up in the
mining camps above, will doubtless become
irregular business with our pecpe The
high prices Of fresh pork, lard and bacon
that now rule, should be sufficient induce
ment to farmers to enter uoon the business
on an extensive scale. Besides, something
will hereafter have to be done to guarantee
the consumption Of the great amount Of
gaain raised in the valley--a surplus Of
which may every year remain on hand
What is now required is an outlet for grain,
or some means whereby the surplus may be
consumed, and there is nothing in which an
equivalent can be found that will remuner-
ate more handsomely than the raising Of
pork aud preparing bacon properly, both for
the home market and to supply the demand
from abroad.

MoRE SPEcIMENs.-Mr Rockfelow pre-
sented us this week with some beautiful
specimens of quartz from the recently dis
covered lodges on Eagle creek They are
rich in gold and well calculated to give any
one prcdisposed to the mania yczept " quartz
on the brain an instantaneous attack. These
ledges are believed to be equally as rich as
the Rockfellow lodes and are owned by the
same company
Dir. H. Bledsoo has also placed in our
cabinet specimens from the new silver mines
Near idaho city. These lodges are proving
to be richer than at first reported -exceling
anything yet discovered in the Boise coun-
try. A city has already been laid out in
the vicinity of the mines.
Mr.. J. g. Smith presented us on Thurs
day piece of quartz, nicely dotted over
with gold, which he picked up on Dry
Greek, few miles from this city. From
the fact Of gold bearing quartz being found
there, it is reasonable to infer that there is
a lode running somewhere through the val
ley.
So soon as we get few more specimens,
which have been promised us, from Boise,
we will put them in case for exhibition to
the public, ''free gratis for nothing"

THE majority Of the immigrants now COM

PAYErTE DITcH.-A company of sur
veyors have recently been looking for prac-
tcable route for water ditch from the Pay
cite river into the Boise Basin. They re-
port that no line can be found oh which a
ditch capable of conveying $500 inches of
water can be constructed at less cost than
one and quarter millions of dollars. The
ditch will probably not be made, and miners
must content themselves with the slower pro-
cess of working out their diggings from the
water supplied by their small mountain
streams and the melting SHOWS in spring.
This will undoubtedly be the best for the
country in general for it will require many
years to work out the mines by the present
process, and at the same time amply remu-
nerate the miners, and furnish the while to
the farmers and manufacturers in the vicin-
ity market for their products.

A CRowD.-The city this week has pre-
sented lively and animated appearance.
Main street has been thronged each day
by strangers, mostly from the different min
ing camps, and as consequence quite a
''run" has been made on the hotel proprie-
tors for board and lodging. A goodly num-
Der of the miners now coming down propose
to winter in the city and valley. 1t has
been predicted by nearly every one that the
coming winter will be the s"liveliest' one
Walla Walla has ever seen, and the pros
pect now is that the prediction will be veri-
fed The accommodations for strangers,
both in the city and country, are now much
better than they have ever before been.
