CORRESPONDENCE | o Carrollton. \ ; s g | Times are rather dull, and news lis scarce. Crops are good, egpecially the corn crop. The battle between Gen, Farmer and Gen. Green’s forces will be decided this week. There will perhaps be some skirmishing ou the ottposts left for next week; but the main fight will teiminate at 12 o’clock Saturday; Ihad a dream last night. I dreamed that I went to Buchanan and’ saw the stern Judge on his seat; Meß~=~and Judge H——rwith their log ic, And Col. B===with his No. 10 feet; ‘There were present young Mercier and Edwards, And Robinson, limbs of the law, And Ivy—the Mayor, and Clenierits; And Gus with his ponderbis paw. Col. G—mn with a face liké a hatchet, Showed at once that ¢ was adrmed for the fight. But the man who was most to be dreaded Was the one who was nearest all Wright. T dreanied that I saw a fine Judge, (How rediculous sure it would be,) Make an elegant speech of an hour, For the pitiful sumos a V. Imight bave dreamed more, but my slumbers Were broken by the sound of the bell, And the things that took pliace in Buc hanan, | I’ve promised I never would tell. G.W.M. Moody’s Cross Roads.
