THE election returns show our popula'
ton greater than before the war. Tho
statistics collected BY Assessors, show
the value Of property to be greatly in
creased. Everything proves US as Q
people richer in money and property
with more soldiers, than when the wal
began. We are in much better con-
ditiou to crush the rebels than We were
the day they fired into Fort Sumter.

Reportsd Expedition under General
RosEeau.

NEW YORK, July 23.-The HeraLds
Nashville dispatch says: Gen. Rosseau
left Decatur, on the 10th, on an import
ant mission, it is said with force Of q
TOO we'll mounted and 1000 Of the com
mand armed with Spencer repeating rife.
The route to be taken is one that never
has been taken HERETOFORE during the war,
though it is nearly identicle with the
trace pursued by General Jackson in the
war with the Creek indians
The first point OF any importance on
their route is Blountsville; the next Azo-
vile, and two milea beyond Azoyille is
Cave river. He is then to move rapidly
npon the Taladaga and the nearest bridge
or ford over the Tallapoose river The
route between the two streams is to be
very rapidly pursued and bridges are to
be completely destroyed.
The passage Of the Tallapassa will in
ell probability be made at Tehopke, and
will bring the force to Daderyille Noun
tain. The roads viii carry into the rail
road at convenient points, when the
work Of destruction will begin. There
are eight bridges on the railroad be.
tween Montgomery and Opelaka 1t is
more than possible that numbers Of tun-
uels and bridges will be found in the
valley between Opelaka and Vest Point
There are two bridges over the Big Hol-
lowachee and Osonappeach Creek, near
Columbus On the other route are three
bridges over Wetumka Creek, and one
over Mill Creek. Returning after the
destruction Of these roads, Rosseau is to
move up the west side Of the Chattaboo-
chic, If the opportunity offers, and join
Sherman between Marietta andthe Chat
tahoochie river.
If this route is threatening be is TO
taxa straight for the Peninsula and take
vessels for New Orleans, aud thence to
Nashville again
by Richmond papers Of the 10th We
have the first reports Of Rousseau 8
works
A dispatch from Atlanta, dated the
18th, says telegraphic communication
with Montgomery was suspended last
night near Notasulaga The Interrupt
ton is supposed to be caused by a per.
ton Of the enemy reported to be at Tai
ladega on Saturday
No train arrived from West Point TO-
day
A special from Nashville 10 the Her
aid, dated the 3D. says The success
Of Sherman's movements in cutting the
eastern and Southern communication
from Atlanta leads to the belief that the
rebels nave been foiled in the attempt "a
escape, and that the operations at that
place have already been narrowed down
TO siege
Two large cavalry forces some time
since left the army at different points
and have, doubtless, ere this, cut tho
Macon and Columbus Railroad in sucl
a manner that If the enemy succeeds ii
leaving the city to go away, It must BE-
at loss OF much valuable property

The Word Cockney.

In the reign of Edward 1T, knight
held some land at Cukeuey, in Noting
hamshire, free Of rent during the reign
of the king, on condition of his shoeing
the kings palfry or saddle-horse on each
foot, with the kings nails and materials;
but if he famed it he was to give the
king another, worth four marks The
The Knight of Cukeuey attended at the
kings stables to perform his duty, when
one of the monarch's farriers offered to
instruct him how to do it; but in order
to save his purse he declined the offer :;
consequently, by his ignorance he laimed
the horse. This was repeated until
he had more marks to pay than the value
Of the land, BY which act of folly
the word Cukney became provervial
even at court, and stupid. untutored
citizen was called Cpckney knight,
which was changed to Cockney.
Dodgeville chronicle. [volume] (Dodgeville, Wis.) 1862-current, 1864-04-21

The docility and amazing instinct of
the Arab horse are shown to proceed
mainly from his constant association with
the family of his owner, sharing their
food, sleeping in their family tent, and
lastly from the early age atawhioh he is
broken in, which they say checks the dey7
elopment of the spleen, very important
point in the opinion of the Arabs: ,rr
At the age of eighteen to twenty
months the colt is mounted by child,
who takes him to, water. goes in search
Of grass or leads him to the. pasture
Not to hurt the bars he guides him with
a longe,, or tolerably soft mules bit. =
This exercise is good for them BOTH
The child grows up horseman, and the
colt acquires the habit Of carrying a
weight proportioned to his strength. He
learnsto walk, to fear nothing, aud it is
IN this manner, says the Arabs, that 1--WE
contrive never to have FESTIVE horses
For the first few days the bit is covered
with underdressed wool, partly with a
view not to hurt his bars, and partly to
allure him to docility by the saltish fla
vor, Of which he is so fond. When he
begins to cham the bit the task is near
ly accomplished. This preparatory ex-
ercise takes place morning and evening.
Thus sagaciously handled theyoung ami
NAL will DE ready to be mounted in the
early part of the Autumn, when he will
be less tormepted by the flies and heat.
Wealthy owners before they allow their
colt to be mounted by grown up man,
sometimes have him led up. and dowr
gently for a fortnight, with pack sad,
die on his back, supporting two baskets
filed with sand
When be is about thirty months old
the colt is taught not to break loose from
hisrider when the latter setsfoot to earth
and not even stir from the spot where
the bride has been passed over his head
and allowed to pass on the ground. Els
pecial care is taken in teaching this les
son, because it is one of great Importance
in Arab life.
