The report that the I1th army Corps were At

that they would make an effort to gain the eroad
sometime during tho night. Up toa late lotr

communication remained unbrokon.

to have been heard oil day in the direction OF

Col. Shaw and Cant. Dean

Two or three young soldiers of MASiGArrT's
Brigade, Gen. STEPHEN D. LEES Corps, who
have been on ahying visit to their homes in our
town, informed US thatas they passed through
Franklin, on the retreat from Nashville, they
found COL. T. P. SHAW of the 19th,. and Capt
II. r. DEAN, Inspector on Cen. MASIGAuLr's
taff, doing well and slowly, but surely, recover
ing from their fearful wounds received at Frank;
lin. Col SHAW WAS not dead, as has been re.
.partedsand beiie~ed; nor had Capt. DEAN lost
his right arm. Both these universally popular
and beloved officers are of course supposed to be
in the hands Of the enemy, as they were too
severely wounded, and IN too critical condition,
to be removed from Franklin.

and shining characters,ice-his wonderful and
subtle acquaintance with the weakness Of human
nature, his admirable and pitiless icourging Of
the vain falsehoods and frivolous conveutienali-
ties of fashionable society, his thoroughly un-
affected and manly sympathy with the weak and
Iowly, and his superb mastery over the English
language. His books will do to read OIL Sunday,
for they all contain very many sermons hotter

DIVIDE, OF. DJE.-This incident is related

while tho armies OF Meade ard Lee were
staring at each other across The rivulet known
as Mine Run, when moments aypearedto be
hours. and hours days, so near st nand seem.
ed to be the deadly strife, n solitary sheep
walk leisurcly along the run on the rebel
side. A rebel vidcttc fired aud killed the
sheep, and, dropping lis gun, advanced to
remove the prize. In. an inatact; he vas Gov
cred by gun in the hands of:a Union vi
dette, who said, a'Divide il the word. or you
are dead johnny" This proposition was
assen,ed to, and there, between the two
skirmish lines, Mr.. Rebel skinned the sheep,
took one half end. moved back with it to hi,
post; when his challenger, in turn, dropped
his gun, crossed the run, got the other half
of the sheep and again resumed the duties
of bis post, amidst TIC cheers Of his .com-
rades, who expected to help him eat it OF
the hundreds of hostile men .arrayed against
each other on either bank Of that run, not
one dared to violate the truce intuitively
agreed upon by those two soldiers.
