FORESTS SURRENDER.

This dashing rebel cavalry General and
guerrilla leader, of the Mississippi Valley.
has, it appears, surrendered with Dick
Taylor's army. It was much feared that
he would prove troublesome, and not sur
render his command with the armies of
the South. The character of the man was
such as to indicate different course from
what the telegraph informs US he has
taken. Years ago, he was a slave trader.
Then, for awhile. he followed the business
of a professional gambler on the Missis-
sippi river. Still later, he commanded a
boat on the Lower Mississippi. but spent
more time at the gambling-table than in his
Office. When the war broke out, he bore
the character Of a most reckless and des-
perate man and when he first entered the
Confsderats service, it was in the capacity
which he might be expected to choose,
that of a guerrilla of the darkest dye.
BE was reckless, daring and successful,
and rosa rapidly in rank. His control
over his men, too, was perfect-he was both
loved and feared by them. They always
received his praise, when they had per-
formed. successfully, any dangerous I'M
dertsking and he never hesitated to shoot
down or stab to the heart any Of his men
in whom be detected the least insubordi-

SRH REsELs.-Since the arch chief Of
rebeldom was taken in petticoatS, it seems
the she rebels in our midst are becoming
rather presumptive. During the service,
last Sabbath, at the Baptist Church. on
South B street, Virginia, and whilst the
Rev. Mr.. Briggs wa, returning thanks for
our recent victories, the congregation was
much annoyed by the contemplate de-
pertinent of two of the above named
creatures, who seemed anxious to show
their colors by laughing, talking, scowl-
ing, and grinning at each patriotic petition
that was offered for the success Of the Ma
tional cause. We would advise those two,
and all others Of their kind, that they and
their sentiments are well known in that
community, and in view Of the fate i'm
pending JEFF. Davis, to beware how they
show their teeth.
