This force is entirely in adequate lo the large demand, wo an: requested to suy. In Columbia and at every stalnm along the railroads in South Carolina, the la lies turn out n masse on tho arrival of a train, with bandages and food, to minister to Iho wounded.

Canhy is organizing nil expedition l!iiailli men. at New Or leans, for a deniouilratioii on Mobile and South Alabama. It ij deemed .proper that the cititens should be adv'ucd of this inlellijrence in order that they may niake their dispositions accordingly. The route of approach is not positively known, but it is surmised that l'ensaeuhi will bo the base, and Sherman's policy of cutting oil' Mobile by river from the inte rior will ho tho one pursued. While such is the of ficial intelligence, we doubt if liencral Canhy will be so rash as to undertake this programme serious ly. He may make a demonstration as a diversion ill favor of Sherman and in tlio hope that (iuner.il Johnson will weaken himself by detaching a force to covor South Alabama. In this he will bo mis taken. Ilis movement may have the effect of with holding reinforcements that otherwise might be Bent to him, but nolhiiig more, for there are tho men and tho means totako care "f (lencral Canhy and his whipped "Hanks troops, without culling on Uen. Johiidtcii. The inteIHgonce, however, should stimulate Gov. Watts to put into the licl.l tho Slate troop? at once, to reinforce tho veterans whoso duly it will bo to meet this expedition. lU'port of men Admitted into Hospital at l.i-illiy, (iu., July lltli, l( I.

From the following note, addressed to us by Major (Haas, It will bo aeon that there is a misjako in tho statement that Major Lowellyn, who was re cently captured at Jackson, was tliu Cheif Coiiiiuis, sary of (ieu.

John Morgan anil ('lay's llursCK. A gentleman from Lexington, Kentucky, relates an incident relative to (ion. John Morgan, which is certainly characteristic of him, whether it bo true or not. After hfl hud stolen the celebrated race horso " Skeodadlc," Mr. Clay started in pursuit with two lino animals, worth each, and of fered him both together, with iiOU, if ho would re turn Iho racer. "These will answer your purposo just as well said Mr. Clay, , (fen. Morgiin looked at tho horses carefully, and said t "Well, Mr. Clay, they will answer my purpose as well as Skecdadlo; and aa I am disposed to nc connnoduto you " Jlere Mr. Clay's countenance brightened.' "As I am disposed to accommodate you, I will partly comply with your request. " Mr. Clay was ti7.led. "I will partly comply with your rcipieot. I'll take these two horses, but I can't givo y1u the other. Mr. Clay was completely taken aback, but he was not allowed to get away that case: The sol diers toik tho six hundred dollars from him, and he was compelled lo leave fir homo on foot, with his pockets empty. Tho Wrong Nanio. A company waa drawn up in lino, and an officer began to call Iho roll. As ho proceeded he came lo tho iiiiuio of "F.beucicr Mead." JIo called il no answer though tho man supposed lo own it was a few steps bcforvhiin in the line. "Kbeneior Mead!" exclaimed tho officer in s. louder voice. Still no answer. "Kbeu-c-zer!" was again thundered forth from .1,.- ne.u.n ot iiiu uoiioaiii uinccr, yau louoer loan before. Thero ktill being nu answer, tho ofliccr stepped a pace or two forward "Is there any Mojid hero?" "My name is Moud," replied ono of tho men "Rascal!" continued the enraged officer, "why don't you answer when your numo ia called? I will cull it once more Ebcnttcr Mead!" There was still no answer. "Rascal, if you don't answer when I call you again, I'll have you court-martialed!" "Sir," replied tho man, "my name Is Eben, and not F.horiozcr Mead. Your narao, I believe, is Po tor Read. Now, would you answer if I should call you Pctoreezer Kcad?" 1 1 is unnecessary to stale that at the next call the officer gave Mr. Mead his true baptismal name. Epitomized Facts. Tho numbor of lunguages now spoken is 4, (fit. Tho number of men is about equal to the number of women. The average of human life is .'13 years Ono quarter die beforo the age of 7 ; one-half beforo Iho ago of 17. To every I, uno persons, only one reaches 100 years, and not moro than ono in 5110 will reach 80 years. Thore are on tho earth 1,000,000,000 inhabitants. Of these :t.V,X!,:t;i:i die every year, 01,824 die ovory day, 7, 7SII every hour, and 60 per minute, or ono evuj-y second. These lossos are about balanced by unequal number of births. Tho manicd are longer lived than single, and above all, thoso who observe a so ber and industrious conduct. Tall men live longer than short ones. Women have more chances of life, previous to the age of 50 years, than men, but fewer after. Tho number of marriages aro in the proportion 7ft to 100. Marriages are more frequent after the equinoxes, that is, during tho months of Junu and lloccmber. Those born in tho spring aro generally more robust than others, liirtha and deaths are more frequont by day than night. The number of men capableof bearing arms iaoue-fourth of tho population. " A friend who hai traveled through a portion of Alabama reeuutiy, is responsible for the following story : At a placo where passengers bad to change cars, tho attention of our informant and other passengers win directed to a tall woman, seated on a cross-tie, and sevon year old boy standing before her.
