VIM. Cullen Bryant gave the following
excellent advice to young man who offer
ed him an article for the Evening Post:
My young friend. I observe that you
have used several French expressions in
your article. think If yoa will study the
English language, that you will find it capa-
bic Of expressing all the ideas you may
have. have always found it so, and, in all
that have written, do not recall an in
stance when was tempted to use foreign
word, but that on searching | found bet
ter one in my own language.
A Doc REooGNiMNG A PoRrRAir or ITS
MISTRESS. young Partisan artist lately
painted portrait Of a duchess, with which
her friends were not sat SIZED, declaring that
it was totally unlike. The painter proposed
that the question: Of resemblance should be
left to little dog belonging to the duchess
which was agreed to. Accordingly, the
picture was sent to the hotel Of the lady
the next day, and large party assembled
to witness thu test. The dog was called in,
and no sooner did he see the portrait than
he licked it all over, and showed every de.
monstration Of joy. The triumph OF the
painter was complete, and all present insist
ed that the picture had been retouched dur
ing the night, which was actually 80, the
artist having rubbed it over with thin coat
Of lard.

els For my part, / have always entertain
ed a high regard for Gen. Butler. Indepen-
dent of his operations on the James during
the past year, he has rendered service to his
country second to no other General IN the

peared upon the military arena at the head
of Massachusetts, regiment, and quelllng
the open disaffection prevailing IN Annapo7
lis and Baltimore-for giving to the world
while in command at Fortress Monroe IN
1861 the term 'contraband' as applied TO
slaves, and which has since become a syno-
nvm for that species of property, and by Its
magic power has unlocked the iron bound
gates of oppression and bid the victims go
free-for teaching the rebellious citizens OF
New Orleans their duty, and organizing Or
der out of chaos in that city-and last, on
succeeding to the command of this depart
ment, for his having metamorphosed the ln-
habitants of Norfolk and Portsmouth from
disloyal rabbe into a law abiding people,
IS he entitled to the gratitude of the Amer
lean people. But his ambition Tor renown
impellcd him to accompany an expedition
almost against the express and positive or
ders of his Chief, and his failure to assault
the enemys work after having effected a
landing, (as was intended should be done, }
was ample cause, in a military point OF view,
for his removal and it now remains for the
DEVELOPMENTS of the future to vindlcate or
condemn the act. [ am not yet prepared
to give him final kick.
We have had no operations on the front,
of defensive or offensive character, tor a
considerable time, the rebel gunboat expe-
dition having occurred since the date OF this

ished, and reports have it that work upon 1t

Years day. The earth was not thrown out
as was expected but fell back in the canal,
and as it now remains exposes the working
parties to the fire of the enemy's sharp

Deserters from the rebel army and refu-
| gees continue to flock into our lines daily,
| and it is not uncommon to see squads OF
| half dozen and more passing our camp
each day A few days ago batch of thir-

We have increased the number OF our
guns from four to six, with men and horses
in proportion, which doubt not will render
the battery more effective.
The weather has been very disagreeable
here all winter. with only few bright days
to cheer Us with their genial comfort; yet,
notwithstanding the inclemency of the wealth

good-there being only two sick out OF one

A REMARKABLE PROPHECY.-Not long
ago was found at Toledo, in Spain, in a
monastery, paper containing the following
prophecy the far West, beyond the
ocean will rise nation which will be great
in power and wealth and Satan, in one OF
his walks to and fro in the earth, will OBJ
serve this nation, and determine to destroy
their happiness, will there send two mon
sters, one to the North and the other to the
South, and he will give them strawberries,
and they will eat them; and, after they
have eaten, they will feel great thirst, not
to be quenched with anything else but blood.
They will, therefore, cause the brother to
slay the brother the father to slay the son,
and the son the father, and they will drink
the blood of the slain, ard it will bring la
mentation and wailing throughout the land.
And, when the time is fulfilled, there will
rise a strong man in the North who will take
the monsters and bind them and draw them
into the sea, where it is the deepest, and
peace and happiness will again prevail
throughout. and the people will praise the
Lord.
It is said the monks in said monastery
maintain that this prophecy was written be-
fore the discovery of America by Christie
pher Columbus that Ferdinand and lsa-
bella were. in the main, induced by it to fit
out the ship for Columbus, and that the first
part of it is fulfilled in America, and that
the other part viii soon come to pass.

The Louisville Journal, Of January Goth

The Louisville Journal, of January Goth
records fresh instance of guerrilla barbarity
in that viciniy. A drove Of Government cat
tel guarded by eighty negro soldiers detailed
from various regiments, were being brought
from Camp Nelson to Louisville. The day
being cold and no danger apprehended, the
soldiers were allowed to straggle along care
lessly, while their officers stopped to warm
at various houses on the road. When in the
neighborhood of Simpsonville, fifteen guer-
illas, headed by the desperate Cotton, dashed
upon the negroes guarding the rear of the
cattle, and but two of the entire number es-
capped. They were taken completely by
surprise, and indiscriminately ly murdered by
the outlaws after surrendering. Thirty-fve
dead bodies were found lying in the road
and vicinity, and eight negroes were picked
up dangerously wounded. The officers were
loafng at a tavern when the massacre occur
ed, and escaped. The advance guard also
escaped.
