A Yarrow Escape The army correeqioiulorit pd Ihe Canton (Mips?.) Csiizeti gives the folloH'ing narrative of ih*- manner in which a Confederate eol ilier in Mississippi recently escaped the clutches of the Yankees: While ti welling upon the. sdhjoct of ladies and the purifying influence of ladies society, I will take occasion to mention, tor the ben efu of the fastidious, an adventure ot two nice and accomplished >OIIOO- ladies, to* jgeflici will. :i young gentleman well versed in gallantry. i\oi long since mon cher M., ot this brig ule, w hile in the vicinity ot Federal encampments, took occasion to put up for the night at the house of :m old ac quaintance, where lie had ott* n called to enjoy a peasant rt-past vviih the young la* tlies. During the night, the Federals, learn i.ig his wheicabouts, ajiprtfeched the house creating a bluster cvei y where save in our young hero’s apartment. He .soundly slept and conlintted to.-leup as if on “downy beds of roses,’ unconscious of approach ing d-itige , tint if the young ladies, panic stiicken on his account rushed en dishabille info his room and awoke him liom h:s si uni bore. But the Federate had advano. and too far for him to mak* his rscape in the front, and there was no window or door in the rear How then wan his escape to be effected? Reader, the young ladies iustiluted a plan unprecedented in flic history of military op erations. When the old iady discovered he could not escape hy ruuinug, she rushed io, crying,‘‘gills ! we unist do something— the Fedn *ls are already io ihe paotnge.’ No sooner eaid than done. The young ladies leaped in bed with our young hero, one on each side, completely concealing his hea*i, and thereby causing the search ofthe FeJeials to tie iruiiless They looked into every nook and under every bed in the house, no' excepting the onejnecupied by the hero, but the young Confederate scout was nouheieto be found. How much bet ter than lo have suffered him murdered or imprisoned lor years in a felon's cell. So we say; but the niytdeiv to us is, why they did not think of looking in the bed as welt as under it. r>A* Insolvent State -4- Pennsylvania owe-, says the Charleston Memory, which (taper has carefully compiled the statement, §605,000,000 By her mvn valuation ihe State is worth §596, 0t 10,0*00.

Soldiers of the Armies of the Confedcr&te States■ In the long and bloody war in which your sourtry is engaged,*you Lave achieved many noble triumphs. You have won glorious victo iien over >our vastly more numerous hosts. You have ofieei fully borne privations and toil to which you were unused. You havo readily submitted to restraints upon your individual wiil, that the citizen might better perform his duty to the State as a .soldier. To all these you have lately added another triumph, the noblest ot human conquests —a vi tory over yourselves. As the time drew near when you who first entered tbo service might well have been expou nd to claim relief fromy»ur arduous labors and ro.toratieu to tho endearments of home, you have heeded only the call ot your suffering Coun try.

[London Paper. From Florida.- We have no laier news to report since the dispatch to Gen Beauregard at Charles ton, announcing that the advance of the Orientjf had been checked. That was dated Thursday evening, and appeared in our morning edition. A dispatch dated yesterday afternoon, and received here last night, from the tele graphic operator at Lake City, states the en my had advanced within two miles of that place, and that lighting w.-<s then going on. General Finnegan's dispatch, relerred to above, was probably sent at a later hour. As nothing has been received this forenoon, we inter that the i uemy have not renewed the tight. Bui little apprehension is felt here for the results of the expedition. Ample arrange ments have been made 10 prevent any ex tended advance into the heart of the coun tiy, and the chiel fear is lest they should, by some well contrived plan, or oversight on the part ot our leaders, succeed in ma king their eecape and getting back to their bouts at Jacksonville. The whole expedi tion should he brought to sorrow, and will be but tor ihft very worst sort of manage ment on our part. —[Savannah Republican, t3ih. Diplomacy with France - A Hitch with France. A telegram from Washington to the New York World, of the 2d inst., says : It is rumored in high cllicial circles here that we aro upon the eve of u war with France, ow ing to the singular diplomacy of Mr. Reward touching Iho questions growing out of tue buil« ding ot Confederate ratlin in France. It will be remembered that Mr. Seward assumed a very bold tone toward the English Government altor he discovered that the Britinh Cabinet had de termined 10 detain Laird’s rams and kocp the peace with this country. His high-sounding dis patches were all written af.’er the change of pol icy in the English Cabinet was definitely under stood. Emboldened by his bloodless victories on paper, it is understood here that ho assumed a similar tone toward the French Government, touching the Florida and the escaped steamer it.ipl'iibannock, and al.-o with regard to tho rams whica wero known to bo building in Franco for tho rebel Government. His position was eo in cautiously belligerent that he has received a re ply from D.ouyu do L’huys which has put the Administration in a cruel predicament. The United States must cither abandon its pretensions or g i to war to maintain them. This, it is sta ir and, is the nnly interpretation which can be put ou the reply ot the French minister. Ilonco the panic in the gold luaikui, the call for hvo hun dred thousand mao, and the. orders which have been sent to various naval station,, to lit out the iron-clnds instanter. Another telegram says : It is now alleged that the trouble between France and tho Unit and Slates relates in somo way to the special tmb assy which Mr. Wm. M. Evarbi had been sent- on to that couutry. Astor his services in iho rstu dispute in England, it is known that ho was instructed to demand of Franco tho surrender ot the belligerent rights it accorded to iho Soutuein rebels. Whether tho demand, tor wh tiover course of action, wuß based iu a toil peremptory lone, or whatever may bo tho trouble, it is curtain ihat there is somo serious difliculty with tho French Cabinet, so much so as to alarm all save Mr. Seward himself.
