THE CASE OF ras REBEL SENATOR yooT1

We yesterday stated that Mrs. Henry S.
Foote, wife OF the rebel Senator Foote, of Ten
nessee, had reached Alexandria from rebel.
dom, and that her husband had teen seized BY
the rebels.
The first statement that reached here from
Alexandria concerning the affair was to the
effect that Mr.. Foots was arrested in Rich
mond, but afterwards 1t was learned that he
was seized in the vicinity OF Occoquan, while
endeavoring to make his escape with his wife
from the Confederacy.
1t appears that Mr.. and Mrs. Foote left
Richmond several days ago, for the purpose
of coming within our lines, and reached the
Occoquan on Thursday, but were unable to
cross. They took refuge in the house of Mr.
Eammell, near by, where they were shortly
afterwards overhauled by q squad Of rebel
cavalry, and taken prisoners. The rebels hay.
ing no means of conveyance for Mrs. Foote,
she was paroled to remain in the house, and
they started off with Mr.. Foote towards Dunn.
fries, since which time Mrs. F. has heard
nothing OF her husband, and of course cannot
state what disposition has been made of him.
The fact Of Mrs. Foote being at the residence
of Mr.. Hammell coming to the knowledge of
the military authorities at Alexandria, g. de.
tachment OF Union cavalry was sent ont a
portion Of which returned early yesterday
morning bringing Mrs. Foots as a prisoner, the
remainder going in pursuit Of the rebels for
the purpose of overtakins them II possible and
rescuing Senator Foote
Secretary Seward happening to be in Alex
andria yesterday afternoon, at the request of
Mrs. accompanied her to this city and es.
corted her to Wizards Hotel, where she still
remains, having engaged rooms.
Mrs. Foote is virtually prisoner, although
not under military surveillance.

CorTos RAISING IN. fLLIsoIs.--We clip
tho following from letter TO the Cairo
Democrat ofthe 10Th ults, written from Car
bondsle, Southern Illinois. We think the
estimated yield, Il bale snd half per acre,
will DO found rather large. Cotton was
raised in Southern Illinois last year with
considerable success and profit:
"Vincent, Of the lively little Non Era, u
and formerly Of the press of Cairo, is up to
his ears in business, he and his paper being
deservedly popular With the Carbondales
Under his guidance VISITED an extensive
cotton field this afternoon. 1t promise,
we'll, and will yield about one and hall
bales to the acre. Many Of the balls are al
ready nearly bursting, and will BIO ready
for the pickers within fortnight. 1t lis eB-
gimated that at least thRee thousand bales
will be shipped from this point the coming
fall.
"Crops OF all kinds promise we'll, though
tho culture Of grain has been, to great ex
tent, abandoned, in fayer of the more prof
,tablo cotton and tobacco. Of the latter
article it is said that m ore was shipped from
here last season than from all other points

MoLAssEs FROM INDISH Coma dis
covery has been made, according to re-
port in the St. Louis Dosocrat, ola way of
making molasses from maize or Indian
corn, the quality Of which is not inferior
to that extracted from the best cane, not
liable to fermentation, aad of good flavor
body, color and saccharinge properties. Tho
DemocyGt speaks Of the cheap rate at which
tho article can be furnished, and adds:
From one bushel of gsain three gallons
molasses can be extracted, at least. The
market value, therefore, iof the corn staple
Of our own fields will secide the quota
tons Of molasses, and pteclude the posi-
bility of these prime necs'ssaries from pre-
senting as has often besn the case, wide
difference ia prices. ln6eed, the farmer is
thus made the recipient of tho additional
advantage and profit Of raising his own
saccharne, aud saved tina trouble and eH-
ponse Of making an exchange of products
through commercial channels for the pur-
pose.
