JL BRUCE L ciX ' Augusta, Alio. 23, 1305—lm The Detroit Tribune publishes A lengthy account of the adventuresofLieut. Frank Graves, of the 61st ^New Y'ork-Infant ry, who.came to that city several week.- ago, iiini having a good supply oftlie “rhino.” ami but little common sense, put on what is com monly known as a “great many airs,’’ and who boasted that Miss Lenham, of the Varieties Theater, had accompanied him to an ice-cream saloon, Ac., Ac. The .story culminates in the Lieutenant getting down on his knees plead ing drunkeness, and receiving a sound cow- hiding. Miss Lenham plied the whip'*) rap idly that the number of blows is disputed, some baying counted over fifty and others as high its seventy-five. J^gf-Tbe forthcoming number of Harper's Magt’zine, says the N. Y. Post of the lGtb, will contain atv article on Jefferson Davis, ritten by Major General Jordan, the chief of skill'of General Beauregard. It is known that Beauregard anil Davis i+id not agree well ether; in this article General Jordan re veals some curious particulars of the jiitherto secret history of the war, and shows how often DaTis was the marplot, who; by his obstinacy, and his persistent adherence to his personal, friends and relatives, defeated the plans of Confederate generals. . General Jordan aims to show hy examples that Datfis was a man of narrow ideas, of no military genius or foresight, and wedded to petty de tails to the exclusion of large and compre hensive views; and that.he carried into the Confederacy and to Richmond with him all the hates and loves of the old regular army. We find the foregoing published in one-of our Georgia exchanges. Wc bf.ve known Gen. .fordan since the date when Gen. Beau regard took command in the west, and cannot accord to him that spirit *of impar. tialitv which should characterise the historian who undertakes to relath the differences be tween the two distinguished personages named. His statements should be received with due allowance for his predilections in favor of Gen. Beauregard. , In an address of Gen. Sickles at the opening of the institute at New York, he ypoke of the .'departments of the army as fol lows : It was in -the quartermaster’s department that most -wonderful examples of energy, precision, and force were displayed, for which there is no parallel in military history. “If," said the speaker, “trains of the army of the Potomac ulld been set in motion on a single road toward Richmond, the head of the col umn would have entered Richmond before the rear,was out of sight of tlic Capitol at Washington, in the quartermaster's and ordnance departments at Nashville, in the summer of 18(54, mbfe than fourteen thousand mechanics and laborers were employed in providin material for the armies operating in General Sherman’s depart rnent. The storehouses of the commissary of, subsistence at the post contained provisions for one hundred thousand men for eight months, or twenty-four millions of ra tions, besides,forage for fifty thousand hofSBi for an equal period—that is to sav, one hun dred and sixty-eight millions of pounds oats, corn, and: hay. These stores, besides vast numbers of troops and all, the sick and wounded, were transported over a single track railroad crossing many rivers and trestlework structures for more than three hundred miles through Tennessee and Georgia, a hostile country, in the face of constant attack; from an enterprising arid daring' enemy.’’ ’ ‘Til the Sulisistence Department, which supplied a million of soldiers with food and clothing; in the ordnance department, in which twenty million dollars of capital anil twenty thousand mechanics were employed in the manufacture of arms at one-fourth the cost of those import ed from foreign countries; in the medical de partment, with its stationary rind travelling hospitals, and tlic omnipresent co-operation of the sanitary commission, the same energy and vigilance werever at work.

T Brown, Esq., lately cashier of the First Nation al Bankot Madison, Wisconsin, was in Spring- field, Illinois, a day or two ago, conferring with the blinkers and State officers. We un derstand the project was favorably, entertain- e*l,.am!, that some of the,Springfield bnnkera took stock in the enterprise.. At the recent State fair held :it the Chicago trotting park, a ypung iiuni lin'd occasion to set up a hitching post on the grounds, and in digging about twelve inches down ,canto plump upon the hack bone of a cat iisli; arid thinks be can fisli with, a spade anywhere upon the premises, with almost a certainty of success. He further says, in praise of the lo- arez had fled to El Paso from Chihuahria; but from the tenor of the same advices it does not follow that the fortunes of the Lib- rals are irretrievably destroyed. However that may be, it is-certain that there is no change in the policy heretofore pursued by our government in relation to Mexican affairs. The reduction of the voluntary military force is progressing rapidly. The total num ber of froops mustered out under orders from the War Department, dated Wugnst 14, was twenty-nine thousand. Of this number six thousand were men serving in the middle lepartment, eight thousand in Washington, five thousand in Kentucky, eight thousand in North Carolina, aud two thousand in Missis- ppi. Orders, dated the 10th of the present month, direct the mustering out of another large body of troops, which will number, about forty thousand, twenty -thousand of whom are colored troops raised in the north ern States. The general land office is enforcing strict compliance with the regulations requiring prompt deposits of public moneys by all the receivers of the United States land offices, so that balances may be settled up by the end of. the first month (30tli inst.,) of the fiscal year. Since the -close of the war, the business <lf the Uriited States patent office has gradually increased. For the week ending September 12, one hundred and twenty-six patents were issued from the office, and one hundred and thirty-two will he issued for the week ending on the 19th inst. • Travelers’ may now go hy rail from New York to Columbus, Georgia. The trip occu pies' five days and costs sixty-six dollars By steam from New York to Savannah and thence hy rail, the fare is seventy-three dol lars, and the time occupied is eight"days. A Polish agent is now in Virginia looking for a location in which to settle'a party of Polish migrants in that State. The nett earnings of the Richmond and Danville railroad from the seventeenth day of June to the tliirfy-first day of August, a period of seventy-six days, over all expendi tures, were within a small fraction of sixty- nine thousand dollars. There jvas a collection taken up last Sun day throughout the. dibcese of the Archbish op of Baltimore for the relief of the Southern orphans am} widows who have been beggared by the disasters of the late war. The Arch bishop says in his appeal to his people, “it is no longer a question of who was right or who was wrong'; the issue of arms has settled that point; It is a question of charity with the Christian, of humanity with the philanthro pist, and of old family and social ties with many Marylanders." An English tourist, amazed at the unfinish ed condition of affaire in Washington, says: “ At one end of a street y ou may purchase the last new novel; at the other end you may possibly encounter a rattle-snake.” The son of a cabinet officer has been ar rested for disprclerly conduct in Detroit. With some other high-binders, he got on a lark and insulted two ladies in the hotel. The police took-him and his friends into custody. Dwight Todd, of Betlilem, the young man who was bitten l»y a red adder, was found insensible, and on a piece »{ slate by his side the words, “bitten by a snake;—drank seven glasses of cider brandy.” A correspondent says he is recovering. Maximilian’s spies assume to have discov ered a conspiracy against the emperor’s life in the city of Mexico, and on the 24th ultimo some thirty suspected persons were surround ed .in their houses at night, and are now con fined .in the fortress of LTlloa, at Vera Cruz. J. C, Bates hap been appointed direct tax commissioner for the district of the State of Georgia. jf Capt. J. B. Jones, of the nineteenth United States infantry, arrived in Washington city, on Monday last, from Augusta, Ga., by the way of New York, bringing with him about 1,100 pounds of.gold and silver bullion, with a small amount of coin, of the aggregate value of perhaps $200,000. This wealth was recovered by the treasury agent, and is said to be a part of the spoil captured from Jeffer son Davis. Captain Jones has delivered the money to the treasury of the United States. ’ The number-of Major and Brigadier Gen erals still in the government service, unem ployed, is something over a hundred, not- witlistiutding the large number mustered out recently. . The secretary of war has issued instruc tions to the commanding general of the de partment of North Carolina, Virginia' Flori da, Texas, Louisiana and Arkansas, directing them to immediately muster out of service all organizations of colored troops which were enlisted in the Northern States. Tlic board of controllers of the public schools of Philadelphia, have passed a reso lution to introduce calisthenics mid light gym nastics into the schools. Grand Master Dupuy has appointed W. II.

Philadelphia Inquirer.] The famous guerilla chief was visible on the streets of Richmond yesterday. Some body h:i described Mosby a-; a handsome man in personal appearance, hut he is noth ing of the sort. Of ordinary higlit, his build *is good enough, but his face is common-place anil his light brown hair worn unkempt, adds nothing lo its attractiveness. Mosby’s fea tures and expression would impress' you as those of a man resolute and cunning, not captuously honest nor viciously cruel, and I suspect that in the stories of his cruelty he has been somewhat belied. His business in Richmond is to regain pos session of some tobacco lie claims, and I was sorry to hear him remark that it is all he bus in the world, for I know that he will not get it, and he owe3 the Inquirer for a horse and divers othef articles, taken from me V>y some of his band last summer, and I imagine -our chance lor restitution to be small. In another sense it was pleasant to hear him admit- his poverty, for if lie told the truth, it shows that he was graciously swindled at the first divis ion of the spoils on the breaking up of his command; and further, it controverts the un comfortable axiom concerning honor among thieves. When the life of John Singleton Mosby comes to be written, it will show a succession of startling personal adventures unsurpassed" by those of any partisan chief on record.— That Mosby was always hanging on the out skirts of our armies, cutting off our trains, capturing our stragglers, and harrassing us in every possible way, the people generally know; but they do not know that he went in and out of our camps at his pleasure, and was never once detected. It is said (and undoubt edly truly) that while Burnside, lay opposite Fredericksburg, in tlie winter of 1862, Mosby dined with him, in the character of a Union farmer from across the river, and gathered, with his shrewd cunning, from the general table talk, much valuable information, with which he regained the rebel lines without molestation. One of the best things told of trim occur red that same winter and in the same neigh borhood. Burnside, that winter, was literally badgered by Mosby. He seemed ubiquitous, and at last it became dangerous to go from camp at all, as the least ramble was sure to result in capture by Mosby. At last Burnside became wearied out, and determined to cap ture the partisan, arid to this'end sent detach ments of cavalry to scour the country thor oughly, anil bring him in dead or alive. One day, one of these detachments, led by a lieutenant colonel, was going up the Dumfries road, when, from a house in sight'of the Fed eral lines, a man emerged, dressed in the uniform of a Federal captain, and attended by one orderly dressed in our cavalry blt}e. At the gate were two horses marked U. S. and furnished with regulation sa'ddle and bridle, and mounting, the captain rode up and accosted the colonel, who was still march ing up the road. The colonel informed his new. companion that ho was in search of this Mosby, and asked if he had heard anything of him. » Tlic captain had heard and knew to a cer tainty that an hour before Mosby had been at Jones’s, four miles up the road. Visions of promotion and newspaper paragraphs dancing before him, the colonel ordered him “ trot march," w T hile the captain, with his orderly, dashed across a field to a farm house to get some milk, he said, before returning to camp. Arrived at Jones’s, the colonel found that Mosby had indeed been there, but also found that he had departed in the direction of Burnside’s camps. Back the colonel beat in haste, making inquiries every where, but finding no trace. Arrived again at the house from whichs the communicative captain had appeared, the woman accosted him, and this colloquy ensued: Woman: Kumel, who was that ere Yank capting met ye here as ye was gwine tother way ? Colonel: I don’t know his name, but he belonged to a Massachusetts regiment. Woman: Yeas, well kneow ain’t you sold that air was John Mosby. Colonel: H—! And he rode back to camp and said noth ing whatever about his morning’s work, ex cept to report that he had not captured-him] Some of his men did, however, and that story floated about the army during the rest of 'the war. Many such things as this' are told of Mos by, and his power for mischief was so sens! bly felt in the Valley last summer and au tumn, that Phil. Sheridan used to swear at him in his most hearty style. Mosby riow is ■a citizen of the United States no better-and no worse than the thousands of other Vir ginians who have laid down their arms.

Six years ago a lady in Norwich, Conn., planted three peach stones in a box. Only one of them came up, but now from the three branches of the tree she lias'gathered three different varieties of peaches. A youth fifteen years old residing near Ma rion, Aim, drank three glasses of buttermilk, ate three watermelons, and a basket ot peach es; on tlie same day he dinod heavily, and died in the afterno#n. A Tae-ping chief Mo-Wang was recently caught, taken to the execution ground in Canton, tiad to a cross, aud slowly cut to pieces, the flesh above his eyes and cheeks being first removed, then strips of flesh cut from his body, and finally his heart cut out, and the head was then severed from the life less body.

This conduct of Artemus Ward reminds us of our revolution ary forefathers. Be true to Yourselves, Georgians ! From the Federal Union.] If we ever could give anybody advice, we feel perfectly unthorized to do so now. We are so well convinced,in our own minds, that the approaching State convention can save or ruin the people of Georgia, that wc would spare no effort—up labor—to impress the people with the impotence of sending men to the convention who are prepared to ac cept and recognize the situation, in all its as- . pccts. If our representatives in the conven tion will do as Mississippi's representatives have done—acknoledge tiiat slavery is dead, as an institution—and go not one inch be yond the limit of their plain duties—all will lie welL President Johnson will say, well done Georgia, and all the friends of the South, at the North, will echo, well done Georgia! But if we send broken down politicians, and wooden-headed men—or men that- would like to hear their own voices in the State capi- tol—then we will have trouble, and the radi cals at the North will shout in the ears of pres ident Johnson—there now, didn't «« tell you >*> f the rebels are ripe for another revolution f If there is anything-that would make us want to go to Brazil, it would be to find the Geor- f ia convention composed of men who were isposed to make an issue over a dead ques tion. Pedple of Georgia, be true to yourselves. Stand by the-presidentjand help hiim to figSt the radicals—for, as sure as you are bom, if he fails before the wave of radicalism, you are destined to drink the bitter cup of negro equality Biu\ miscegnation. How can you stand by the president ? Accept his policy of recon struction, without any whys or wherefores. Vote for men to represent you in theconvention whose principal object is, to get you back into the Union, not to keep you out. Leave State policy questions to tlie legislature, and bend all ye ir energies to the most direct and expe ditious method of bringing the State of Geor gia back to her position in the Union.

Spied., of Cincinnati, of $20,000, and one from Mr. Ward H. Lammon, of Washington City, at $50,000. The mill, which-was built during Sherman’s campaign, cost the govern ment about $300,000, and is furnished with machinery of the most approved pattern. It is not believed that the government will part with it (it the low price offered.—Gazette. A Curious Vine.—A curious vine, says the Nevada Transcript, has recently been found in some of tlie gardens in that vicinity: It is a parasite, and readily attaches itself to other plants. The vine is about half the size of an angle worm, is of a light color, and appears very tender, but it is almost impossible to kill it. One of these vines has fastened itself upon Judge Bclden’s potato tops, and it climbs from one plant to another without difficulty. If broken into pieces and thrown upon the plants, it soon winds itself around the stems, inserts its feeder** into the plant, and shoots out its tendrils in every direction, losing none of its vitality by tlie rough treat ment We are informed that many vines of the same kind grow up along the Yuba. - However this may be, the creeping parasite will furnish interesting study for the botanist. The Tomb and Burying-qrouml of Abra- . ham Lincoln. From the Illinois State Journal.] We had the opportunity, a few days since, of exantining the plan and drawings made by L. D.

The mausoleum, if built in accord* ance with the. plan furnished by Mr. Cleve land, will be a beautiful structure, and is to be placed a short distance from the proposed monument. In size, it: will be twenty and The Cholera in Constantinople—Re ports from. United States Consuls.—The State department- is in receipt of intelligence from the United States Consul stationed at Constantinople, dated August 14, in which he says; “I had hoped to be able to report some abatement in the ravages of the cholera, which has been unusually malignant here for more than a month,causing an unprecedented panic among the inhabitants of this place and vicinity. It is estimated that the victims of this direful scourge already number twenty thousand, the number of deaths in a single day having reached one thousand. It is said that probably two hundred thousand of the terror-stricken inhabitants have left the city. Business has been almost entirely suspended, and many places of business are closed. The Mussulman population night ly perambulate the streets, chanting hymns and prayei s for the abating of tlie scourge. Among the Greek population the fright has almost resulted in a famine, the bakers re fusing to make bread, the butchers to kill meat, and the grocers to sell provisions.— The panic among the masses is out of all pro portion to the danger.” The United States Consul stationed at Leg horn informs the State department, under date of August 25, that the cholera, which has prevailed to an alarming degree for the past few months in Egypt, -and some eastern portions of Italy, has not yet reached Leg horn, and says it lias not yet broken out in the western part of Italy, except at Malta.— The Consul says that in Ancona, and other places on the Adriatic, where it prevails, it is very fatal. Of those attacked, more than half die. The Cabinet.—The Washington corres pondent of the Philadelphia ledger, in a late letter, says: “The time is not distant when there will be an entire reconstruction of the cabinet.
