Negro Hiring for 1862. Wm. S. Phillips, General Agent and Collector, will continue to Hire out Negroes, Rent out Houses, Settele, and Collect Claims of every description appertaining to an Agency.

se communications. The stirring events at Bowling Green, freighted with the dusting of Kentucky, may soon draw me to a field affording ample scope and verge. I am kindly permitted, by a lady friend, to make the following extract from a private letter written by a soldier at Bowling Green; "Times with us have assumed quite a business air. Troops in large numbers are arriving daily, and going immediately on to the head of our army, which is at Green river. Within four miles of General Buell's forces a battle is imminent, and may be progressing at this moment. Our brigade has marching orders, but I do not know at what time we shall leave this place. Since we have been here, we have had plenty of drilling. We were temporarily placed with the Second Kentucky Regiment, under Colonel Hanson. While with him, we made a dash into the country about sixty miles through rain and mud, which I assure you took the wire edge off the boys. We were sadly disappointed at not meeting the

whom I enjoyed a long conversation, informs me that the Union element of East Tennessee has entirely disappeared, and the Government will have no further trouble with the traitors. The proclamation of Lead better has had the effect of crushing out the treason of that fertile and wealthy portion of the State. The recreants are hastening to take the oath of allegiance to the Confederacy. To use the expression of the old gentleman, "they are falling over each other to take the oath." Capt. Smith's company, of the 56th, had to-day an accession to its ranks, in the person of Burnett Trainer, a Marylander, who was in the battle of Manassas, was subsequently detailed for duty as a mechanic, and who is just now from the employment of Mr. Snyder, of Richmond. Among other excellent things connected with the 56th, there is a "Christian Association," numbering two hundred members. Capt. Harrison, who is a Presbyterian minister, is regarded as the foremost man in the association. On

tly in Richmond, where, when the regiment was ordered away, he was left to attend the sick. The association have passed resolutions of respect for his memory. The beautiful weather of the last three weeks, which all have enjoyed with equal wonder and delight, has given place to a cold rain, which puts blankets and overcoats in high request. The roads, rendered bad by even a slight shower in winter, may now be said to be impassable for army transportation; and the boys look each other in the face slyly, and sagaciously inquire, "How would you like a bit of a march to Pound Gap?" The answer is ready and "awfully." consoling: "Sir, we shall eat our eggs and oysters, and drink our 'tea' at Camp Robertson considerably in the future" Blessed be the king of the weather, it is now snowing! As this is the last letter that will appear from me until some of the holidays have passed, allow me to wish the public, and especially the "old folks at home," a merry Christmas !Occasional.

From Southwestern Virginia. the town of Abingdon — interesting extract of a letter from Bowling Green. Ky.--Disappearance of the Union element of East Tennessee, &c. [special correspondence of the Dispatch.] Camp Robertson, near Abingdon, December 23, 1861. Abingdon, while a most thriving and hospitable town, is devoid of those striking incidents and exciting war rumors which give interest and zest to one's correspondence. Hence the public must put up with the dryness of these communications. The stirring events at Bowling Green, freighted with the dusting of Kentucky, may soon draw me to a field affording ample scope and verge. I am kindly permitted, by a lady friend, to make the following extract from a private letter written by a soldier at Bowling Green; "Times with us have assumed quite a business air.
