nce the beginning of the war. Two thirds of our nitre beds lie in that region, and a large proportion of the coal which supplies our foundries. It abounds in the necessaries of life. It is one of the strongest countries in the world, so full of lofty mountains, that it has been called, not unaptly, the Switzerland of America. As the possession of Switzerland opens the door to the invasion of Italy, Germany, and France, so the possession of East Tennessee gives easy access to Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, and Alabama. The Yankees have great reason to rejoice over their conquest. It was achieved almost without shedding a drop of blood. Scarce a sprig of cypress is intertwined with Rosecrans's wreath of laurel. He had but to ask and he received; he had but to knock and it was opened. Everything gave way before him. The strongest positions yielded to his demand.

She is originally from North Carolina, was purchased by us in Richmond, and lived with one of us a short time at Madison Court House. She was apprehended and made her escape from Mr. Thomas Martin's, on the Orange and Alexandria Railroad, near Covesville, Albemarle county, last week, and is doubtless making her way towards Gordonsville or Richmond, or the Yankee lines. $50 will be given for her apprehension and delivery to us, or $30 if secured in jail so that we get her. Address Madison Court-House or Howardsville. Z R Lewis, D J Harisook, A R Blakey. se 8--10t*
