ond expedition was sent to Carrots plan
tation. where Booth was found, on Sat
urday, and returned yesterday, bringing
in the paroled prisoner Jet. who took
Booth and Harold to CARROTS, and a
number of others. 1t appears that Jett
Booth to Garrett as rebel
soldier named Boyd; and wanted him
taken care of by Garrett for few days,
when he would be taken away. These
facts Garrett has in vain endeavored TO
prevail on Jett to certify to.
The same correspondent says there are
twenty-one, and perhaps twenty-three
persons concerned in the assassination,
who will certainly suffer tho death pen

A CORRESPONDENT Of the New York
Tribune, writing of the recent review of
SHERMAN's army. thus speaks of the Goth
Corps, the boys who went through the
fire with General Hooker from Lookout
Mountain to Atlanta:
"On Saturday the Goth Army Corps,
the old command Of "6ghting Joe Hook
err and General Williams, and now under
General Mower, had its review This
corps is composed Of vigorous young
men, and surprised many by its size,
after its long and arduous career. They
marched without knapsacks, and bad the
consequent advantage Of freer motion. 1t
was claimed by many that this corps
made the finest appearance of any that
preceded it, but as comparisons are in
vidious 1 omit them. They certainly
commanded general admiration. There
was scarcely regimental or any other
standard carried in the line that had not
been riddled into strings during the fierce
and bloody battles in which they have
fought. All honor TO the old Goth
Corps"

were taken from us by rebel officers. was so
fortunate as to be small, and none of them could
wear my boots or coat. 4 was politely request
ed to take them off, but they were too small
| We were prisoners days, and received every
indignity which they could heap Upon us. On
two occasions while we were prisoners, the reo.
els placed us under The fire Of our own men, and
we lost twomen wounded in this way On the
4th morning Of our captivity, the rebel column
came to sudden halt. I, being very tired,
laid down and Immediately went to sleep, (this
was about o'clock in the mornng,) l did not
awake until nearly noon, and then saw that
there had been some change Of programme The
rebels who had formerly treated us so cruelty.
seemed to ohaye suddenly grown very kind. The
Captain who had charge of US, and who had the
day before called us impudent raseals and id
Yankees, came up to me and said that he could
place his hand on his heart and as a christian
gentleman, could say that he had never Gill
treated" prisoner, at the same time he request
ed my autograph.
1t soon leaked out that arrangements were in
progress for u capitulaton. When the rumors
became certaintes, we were about as happy a
crowd as ever was seen. We jumped, shouted,
ran, hugged each other, and committed all sorts
of absurdites
The same afternoon we were delivered to our
authorities, but had no idea we We're to be con
sidered paroed prisoners, until the next day,
when werecaived an order to that effect We had
rather a rough time coming up the Bay, but
we are here now safe and sound, and the pros
pect is that our soldering days are about over.
We feel rather chagrined to think that we
were captured just at the time the rebellion was
to receive its death blow We had undergone
all the privations and had done more than our
share of of the fighting and just as we were to
witness the result of our labors, we were sacrif
ced. The l23d has received the highest praise
for their bravery on the field and Gen. Ord says
if every man of us had been killed at High
Bridge, he would have considered the advanta-
ges gained as cheaply bought.
We expect to leave for Columbus on Friday,
and will probably get home some time during
next week. ELMER.

THE profits of cotton growing have be-


TAE profits of cotton growing have be-
come so enormous, that it is said the
whole valley of the Nile has been convert
ed into one vast cotton plantation. In
place of producing bread d-stufs for the
with vast surplus for eX-
portation, the inhabitants are now sup
ported with grain from Asia. The rebellion
in America has thus revolutionized the
industrial pursuits Of the East. While the
cotton fields Of the West have been con
verted into corn fields, the lice and wheat
fields of the Orient have become as fertile
in the great Southern staple as the sea
islands of South Carolina. With the
suppression of the rebellion, there will be
a return to the cultivation of cotton, and
the oheapness and abundance Of its pro-
duction will probably arrest the culIiva-
ton of it in Egypt.
