) we would have a total of 18,500 rounds expended leaving a balance of 12,000 rounds, and, unless they were destroyed, they must certainly have been surrendered to Grant. To sustain my assertion, I would say that the brigades of Vaughn.

The quantity of ammunition in Vicksburg at the time of its Surrounded. "One of the garrison" writes to the Mobile Advertiser an account of the kind and quantity of ammunition in Vicksburg at the time of its surrender. His account is from "official documents." He says: On the morning of the 17th of May there was between 10,600 and 12,000 rounds of fixed ammunition in the ordnance depot, exclusive of that in the caissons and limbers of the guns, say 150 rounds each. There were. I think, about 140 guns along the line, which gives a total of between 30,000 and 33,000 rounds. There was not more than 300 rounds fired on an average per day, which would make 13.500 rounds altogether, then placing the amount of ammunition blown up by the enemy's shells at 5,000 rounds (a very extravagant est
ve making about 540,000 rounds, and a total of nearly one million rounds. The amount consumed, except when the enemy charged, was comparatively nothing, and the total number fired will not exceed 350,000, leaving a balance of 490,000. The amount of cape at the Ordnance Department was about 75,000 exclusive of those contained in the men's cap boxes, which very nearly corresponded with the cartridges. Added to these were the caps taken from the dead bodies of the enemy on the evening of the 25th May, which amounted to several thousand and each courier that arrived in from Johnston brought 20,000. The total amount of caps surrendered to the enemy was not under 200,000. There was a good deal of unfixed ammunition, and the magazines of the heavy batteries were well stocked. My information respecting the amount of ammunition was received from parties connected with the Ordnance Department, but whose, names I am compelled to with hold, unless with their permission I made further di

The remainder of Bragg a army went southward from that place, whither is not exactly known. Bragg himself is reported to have been called to Richmond. It is ascertained, however, that but from two to three thousand partly mounted cavalry are left in East Tennessee and Northern Alabama. owing to Morgan's expedition North. With the great numerical as cendancy thus gained by our cavalry, that remnant will soon be swept away, the rebel lines of communication placed at our mercy, and the road for raiding incursions to the heart of Alabama and Georgia opened.

"One of the garrison" writes to the Mobile Advertiser an account of the kind and quant
hunder last week upon the charge of writing a letter to his brother in the Confederate army persuading him to desert. The letter was gotten possession of by Lt. Wade, of the Danville Grays, who destroyed it just before going into action at Gettysburg to prevent its getting into the hands of the Yankees, in the event of his death. The Danville Appeal gives the following history of the case, as elicited in an examination before the Mayor of that city. From the testimony of Lt Wade and Mr. Henry P Moore, a private in the "Grays," it appears that sometime since the letter alluded to was written by a certain Adam Scharer, for some time past residing in Danville, and addressed to his brother, formerly a member of the "Grays." The latter advised the brother to desert to the enemy at the first opportunity and promised on the part of Adam Scharer that he (Adam) would shortly meet him in Baltimore, as he intended to go North. Now, the brother of Adam had been rather ahead of him, for wh
d the thing very adroitly. He in company with another member of his company, straggled off and went into a farm-house to get a meal. While there some Yankee troopers came up, and Scharer's brother managed to let them capture him though his comrade escaped and is now in Danville, where he gave the account of Scharer's performances, and declares that he also could have eluded capture if he had tried. We understand that Scharer, the brother of Adam, has since taken the oath of allegiance to Lincoln and is now in Yankee dom. Upon receiving the information conveyed to his Honor, that functionary ordered the immediate arrest of Adam Scharer, and caused him to appear before him. It was discovered in the investigation that Adam Scharer had been allowed exemption from military service on the ground of a foreign protection in the shape of a certificate from the Consul of the Bavarian Government at Norfolk, who declared him to be a citizen of that country. But it also appeared that this
ed by the recent advance, will be fully established, and other preparations, required by the peculiar character of the proposed future operations, completed, Gen. Rosecrans will recommence active work. The indications are that the whole army will be again in motion in the course of next week. The country may rest assured that the summer will not be allowed to pass without the redemption of East Tennessee. General Rosecrans's latest information from the enemy is to the effect that only Hardee's corps remain in Tennessee, upon a line of defences covering Chattanooga.

Now, the brother of Adam had been rather ahead of him, for when our army fell back from Suffolk Adam had been rather ahead of him, for when our army fell back from Suffolk he took that occasion to desert, and managed the thing very adroitly.
