Ramsey’s com- pany, Hughes’ Battalion, Confederate States cavalry, Vho was at home, was taken prisons er by thou. A Federal officer rode up 'to i house near w^ere tho corporal-was standing fo the midst of Im Yankee guard, and dismount ed from a splendid mare, and threw the reins on her neck, when,' as quick as lightning, the corporal mounted the mare and dashed through the Yankee lines and made his escape without a shot being fired at him. The corporal will do.—Memphis Appeal, ■ j> commanding this regiment is John Lofton, of Oglethorpe county, Georgia, one of the former Captains of this regiment, and who has risen to the position of colonelcy since the battle of Sharpsburg, and a position which he so justly merits. Every member of the regiment loves him. -He is a brave man and competent to discharge every duty, which his position re quires. The same can be said of the other Field Officers of thie regiment.

The Bight Smbit.—A gentleman of this coun ty wa? called upon by a speculator from a nighbor- ing city, a few days since, for the purpose of buying corn. “Got.any corn to sell?” asked the speculator, “Yep,” replied the farmer. “How much?” “Some 500 bushels.” Give you a dollar and a half for it.” "Can’t take it.” “Two dallars.” “No!” “How much will you take for it ?” “You can’t buy'it all, sir. There are in my neighbor hood numbers of families whose husbands,- sons, and fathers are in the army fighting for me, and you, sir. They need corn, and they shall have it at $1,25 per bushel, but you can’t get a grain at any peick.” Somebody left about that time with a flea in his ear. If all our farmers would act thus, speculation-in corn and b^con^vould soon be put down. Compared with it, legislation is no where.
