OCTOBER,
Address of Gen Vraxton Bragg to his-
Army.
Hradq’rs, army of Tennessee, )
Winchester, Jnn. 8,1863. j
Soldiers oj the Army of Tennessee i
Your gailunt deeds have won the ad
miration of your Generals,- j'our' G'bV-
ernmont and your Country. For my
self I' thank you" ahd' am proud of you
—•for them I tondoryou the gratitude
and praiso you liavo so nobly won.
In a campaign of less than one month,
in the faco of winter, yourachievoraonts
have boon unparalleled. You havo
captured moro than ten thousand
prisoners; taken and preserved thirty
pieces of artillery and seven thousand
small arms, in addition to many thous
and destroyed. You hav£ besides cap
tured eight hundred wagons, loaded
chioflywith supplies, which have been
destroyed or brought safely to our lines,
and in pitched battles you have driven
tho enemy before you, inflicting a loss
at least three to one greater than you
have sustained.
In retiring to a stronger position
without molestation front a superior
force, you have left him a barren field
in which to bury his hosts of slain and
to rally and recuperate l>is shattered
ranks. Cut off from his government
hoth by vail and telegraph, and deprived
of supplies by the interruption of his
communications, wo shall yet teach him
li severe lesson for the rashness of pen
etrating a country so hostile to his
cause. Whilst theinfantry and urtillery
defy him in front, our invincible cavalry
will assail him in flank and rear until
we goad him to another advanco only
to meet anothor signal defeat.
Your General deplores, in common
with you, tho loss of your gallant com
rades. who lmvo fallen in our recent
conflicts. Let their memories be on
shrinod in your hearts, ns they will
over bo tenderly oherished by their
countrymen. Lot it be yours to avenge
their fate and proudly emulate their
deals. Remember that your face is to
the foe, and that on you rests tho de
fence of all that is dear to freemen.
Soldiers 1 tho proudest reflection of
your General’s life is to be known ns
tlio commandor ofnn army so bravo
and invincible ns you have proven. He
asks no higher boon than to lend such
men to victory. To siiaro their trluls,
and to stand or full with them will be
the crown of his ambition.

—Wo learn from undoubted authority
that a regular Mf-fo- between the Secre
tary of War and the G'onornl-in chief of
the United forces took place at the
Wav Department in Washington in
regular Heonan and Sayers stylo.
ThoGonoral-in chiof having made on
offensive demonstration towards, tlio
Socrotary, that rodouhtablo functionary
launched ail ink-stand, well aimod, a’t
tho head of tho General-in-chief, who,
duoking and dodging, escaped -the
blow, and immediately closed in upon
the Secretary. Horo eudod the first
round—time, less Ilian one miuute.
The General-in-Chief having quickly
closed in upon the Secretary and cut-off
retreat by a skillful meuccuvrc at his
shirt’collar, immediately began gouging
at the eyes of the . War Department,
nncl was about thrusting in a finger to
its full length when Lincoln cried foul
and threw down tho sponge, which was
immediately applied to quenching the
claret flow from the nose of the Secre
tary of War.— Richmond Enquirer, Jan.

<6F*Whon Gon. Johnson arrived at
Chattanooga, Tenn., a party of persons
Vehemently called him out for a speech.
At last ho appeared,’ anil told them
he" would muoh perfer to see them
iW the army,” This speech was to tho
point,' and one of the best speeches
that has beqn made or published dur
ing this war.
IQrMany enquiries are made for the
olrcumstances which gavo John Van
Buren the appellation of "Prince John.’'
It was an old piece of partyism twenty
five yoai-s ago. Martin Van .Buren was
Prosidont, and n candidate for re-elec
tion, and John went on a visit to Eng
land. Tho Queen (then a very young
lady) paid him a good deal of attention,
and oven, "as tho story runs” danced a
measure with him. From this arose
the title of "Prince John,” whioh has
stuok to him over since. It is more
appropriate than most nicknames, ho
cause John is a. “priime” in more sense
than one.
#6F“"Ma,” said a littlo boy, “tho
blockade stops everything—why don’!
it stop babies from coming ? ” Tho re
S wob not given. It might have
n like that of the old lady of North
Carolina, when, she couldn’t got.nny
more tea. “Well, bless the Lord, they
han’t blockndo snssifrax 1 ”
Enteiii’risf, of thf. E. T. & Ga, Rail*
road.—Wo lonrn that tho enterprising
officers of tho E. T. & Ga. Railroad got
an oiVgino ahd four oars across the bed
of tho Ilolston rivor, at tho burnt bridge
at Union, so that the freight and pas
sengers can now bo transported between
the two destroyed bridges. In fact,
transportation over the whole lino is
going oil again'with but little interrup
tion, thanks to tho onorgy of its officers
—one of whom wislios lo notify Yan
kee maraudors, that they left their
work incomplete when. they' failed to
knock tho bottom out of the Holston.
Such a feat as running a train of cars
across tho bed of a river through the
water, lias not, wo believe, -over boforo
been accomplished.—Lynchburg Rep.
most singular discovery has
boon made on the French coast, near
the mouth of the Garonne. A town
has boon discovered buried in the sand
and a church has already been extract
ed from tho sand. It original plan
shows it to havo been built towards
the close of tho Roman Empire, but
changes mado in it had given it the
appearenco of an odifice of mixed style,
and which tho Gothio architecture
has usurped tho place of tho Roman
Its original paintings, >'ts admirable,
sculptured choir, and Roman capitals
are adoruod with profuso ornamnots,
which are atracting numbers of vis
itors. This temple is all that remans
of those cities] described by Pliny and
Strabo. Tho Gulf of Gascony abounds
in ruins of these ancient cities. It has
been 1,500 years since Novigamns, tho
old capital of Modoc, whioh was a cele-
lnatnd city when the Romans were
masters of Gaul, was buried under the
ocean. Of all that tract of territory,
tho Rooh du Cordouan alone is visible.
Tho romsins of Roman roads, tho site
of Jupitor’s temple, the vestiges of the
Spanish Moors, and the read Elonoro
'do Ctnyenno, has been rescued from
tho sana in ’ tho neighborhood of tho
long buried oity of Soulao. Nowhere
have tho ocean been gronter than ou
tho const of Gascony. *,
IIow to Make the Best Coffee.—An
accomplished housekeeper gives us the
following receipt for making the best
article of coffee that can be. used : Take
coflco grains and pop-corn, of each an
equal quantity.--Roast the same togeth
er. The corn will all pop out, and
what remains will be the gonuine una
dulterated article. Grind and proceed
in the-ordinory way of making, and
you havo a drink of whioh a prince'
would partake with pleasure.
t&‘ Wo tako the following Roms
from the Chattanooga Rebel:
Negroes are selling in' this section
of the State, says the Athens Post, at
from sixteen hundred to two thousand
dollars a piece, and notwithstanding
tho enormous prioe, largo numbers are
purchased in Virginia and brought to
this region and re-sold to tho farmers.
Wo are gratified to learn that Oen.
Ewell, whom wo reported the other
day as having mot with an ncoident,
by whioh his wounded limb was bvo-
ken, has entirely recovered, and now
enjoys his usual good health. His
brother, Gon. Ewell, ol' this ciiy, has
received a dispatch to this effect.
MUST Experiments recently mado in
England prove that paper pasteboard
bettor resists shot from cannon than
hard teak wood. Two targets wore
constructed with one inch plate iren—
the one backed by fourteen inches-in
thickness of teak wood, the other
backed by the same thickness of paste
board. They wore fired at with n Whit
worth 0-poundor, using elongated _ shot
iuches in length and 2£ in diame
ter, and tho penetration was found to
be twice as groat in the timber-backed
target that it was in tho paper one.
The targets wore then fired at througq
a 12 pounder, and with like results.
The resistance of pasloboard to shot
has attracted so muoh attention on.tho
other side of the Atlantic that further
experiments ore to be mado with it.
A Heavy Slate Contract.—Col. Jas.

Slate quarry in Polk county, passed
through this city, on last evening to

Government oontract of $80,000, for

The Two Years Men in the .Yaukf.e

next April or May. Tho first thirty-
oiglit regiments from the State of New
York will go out of sorvico in May, and
among theso, it is said, aro some of the

Arkansas and 1st Georgia regulars, Gen.
E. MoLaw’s brigade, .and Beechman’s

PersonAL.-~.Tho Richmond Enquirer
says : “Mrs. Crittenden, sister of Hon.
J. J. Crittenden, of the United States,
came through the lines at Fredericks
burg, and reached Richmond yester

represents the feeling in New York

A Noble Band, of Negroes.—Dr. J

tv, three miles from Kinston. On '.the

idence of their master, a. distance of
