The You've LKs.--The December
number closes the first volume of this
charming little periodical We do not
know of anything that has contributed
SO much towards instructing and in
teresting thousands of young people
during the past year, as this juvenile
monthly. The book is edited and the
contributions furnished by the best
writer's Cd our continent, and there
is an animation and spice about it
that never tries or loses its flavor. A
better Christmas gift than one years
subscription to the Young Folks can
not be devised. Papas and Mamas
will do we'll to bear this suggestion in
mind in making their Christmas ar
rangements.

From our own Correspondent. ]

New ORLEANS, April IL, 1865.
My Dear Journal:
/ hasten to send you by steamer Pey-
tonia, news of the capture of the last
rebel stronghold Of treason--Mobile.
The news will doubtless be telegraphed
to you from Cairo. Ihave just received
message from my Assistant in the 10th
Corps, which says that our brave boys
OF the "l6th" have marched with flying
colors, through the city Of Mobile.
If any portion CT the rebel army went
north, they viii fall an easy prey to the
troopers of Gen. Wilson, who are going
through Alabama like ausayalanche.
Nothing remains but Shreveport,
which will be attended to in due time
also send you New Orleans Times
with list of the promotions in the 10th
Army Corps. will write you of how
Mobile looks, when ! reach there. !
leave to-day on the Evansville packet
Taraseon, Capt. Jim. Lusk, who seems
to take naturally to salt water naviga
ton. Yours, G. X. d.

brave as the stars are bright of a clear
night, but there are others, who, equally
as brave and daring, deserve not only
mention but the thanks Of the whole ma
tion DO not discriminate, kind reader,
for there are Just as brave men in one
corps as in another. But TO you, who
have brothers, friends and relatives in
the Sixteenth Army Corps, ! wi say,
and thus utter the praises OF disinter-
ested spectators, they have conducted
themselves nobly bravely and gallantly.
Not to surprise the many friends and
relatives Of the individuals alluded to,
would mention that Capt Geo. w. Baker,
Of the old Groesbeck regiment, has been

GREAT REJOICING!

From a reliable source we learn that
Mobile had been occupied by our troops
last evening. -r.
1t seems that Gen. BAily started upon
reconnaissance toward the city, and
soon after returned to Spanish Fort, con-
veying the intelligence of its evacua,
ton, whereupon some of the light boats
of the fleet, in connection with some ei
Gen. Smiths command started out for
Mobile, and at six o'clock last evening
firing was going on around Mobile, and
the city, after very short resistance by
the enemy, surrendered to our gallant
boys in blue. no
There seems to be no doubt left as to
its authenticity. The boys in and
around Spanish Fort Forts Gaines and
Morgan, feel very much elated over th'
receipt Of the news Of the occupation o
this rebel stronghold. q 2 y
