An Old Acquaintance.

--We were glad to see James H. Tompkins, formerly of this city, and for many years a member of the "Blues," as First Lieutenant of one of the Tennessee companies. We expect to hear a good report of "Jim," as he knows how to perform his duty in the military. He has two brothers also in the service of the State: one as Captain, and the other as Sergeant; so it will be seen that it is a military family, especially as their father and relatives were for a long time members and officers of one of the oldest companies in the State.
