The deserters coming within our lines are
very numerous, the number ranging from
twelve to fifty day, all of whom tell the
most doleful stories of the hardships they
had to endure, the scarcity ofprovisons, &c. !,
and predict that the end of the rebellion is
near at hand.

STABBING AFFAIR--An unfortunate rem
conter took place at Pennville, this county,
on the evening of the 10th January, between
f. w. Brooks and Addison Weaver, IN
which Brooks stabbed W eaver in the side
with knife inhicting a serious wound. 1t
seems this unfortunate affair grew out of
some difficulty relative to a pair of boots
which Weaver had left with Brooks to be
mended. We forbear making any comments,
as it likely the matter will be Investigated
by the legal authorities.

there is much wrangling and division among
the rebel leaders, and that there is much
jealousy and watchfulness. of each other,

The New York Times editorially says that
the present campaign began by Sherman is
the finishing campaign of the rebellion. 1t
thinks it makes no difference whether the
troops now coming from the West reinforce
Terry, Sherman or Grant, and hopes to see
the present movement carried to a speedy,
successful termination. Mr.. Blair, it hopes,
will remain quiet, as the only way to bring
about peace is the Obstruction of Lee S army.

Two FIzzLEs.-Profsssor Lyman made a
grand fzzle last evening, at his entertain
msnt, having only $50 house-not half his
expenses. This was fzzle No. l.
He also made another fzzle in attempting
with the aid of E. D. Sweeney, to get his lit
tie audience of 80 or 40 persons to censure
the ARGUS for not working for Professor Ly
man free of charge. Those composing the au
disnce very sensibly and decidedly snubbed
him and Sweeney both for attempting to get
them to interfere with Professor Lyman's
unpaid bills. That was fzzle No. 2.
We have Professor Lymsn's sOritten order
for every thing done by US to get him house,
when he was here before and unless he pays
his bills he will hear from us again in not
very complimentary terms.
