tedium of the life which this community is leading. It will not be many days, we very much suspect, before we shall have both. We think is scarcely within the range of possibility that things can remain much longer stationary at Vicksburg. Grant is said to have pushed his trenches fearfully near to our works, but as yet we are under no apprehensions. We remember Sebastopol. We remember that it was defended from the side on which it was attacked by earthworks hastily constructed, when t to rush, even with the grenadiers of the Imperial Guard, upon that " feu d' enfer" which be described so feelingly, and which, at that day, had never been equalled. Remembering all this, and taking into consideration the cautions disposition of Grant, we are not disposed to believe that he will attempt an assault until he shall have pushed his works close up to those of the besieged, and that will require time which may bring in its train a number of incidents to put a new face upon the state

The situation in Tennessee and Mississippi. Our Southwestern exchanges enlighten us a little on the state of things in Tennessee and Mississippi. In Tennessee both Rosecrans and Bragg are feeling each other's positions. Last week Hardee's corps went to within eight miles of Murfreesboro', and found that a strong body of the enemy had been thrown forward to meet them. Polk is also feeling Rosecrans's left. Whether Rosecrans has reinforced Grant or not, he still shows a very bold front, but if he will not come out of his fortifications there will be no fight. Gen. Joe Johnston has not been heard from, and it is stated that even his division commanders are not allowed to know his plans as yet. He has a large cavalry force, led by an experienced commander, and is able to watch the enemy closely. His forces hold the Yazoo river, near Yazoo city, and also the Southern railroad West of Jackson. Gen. Kirby Smith is not at Milliken's Bend, nor is he at Port Hudson. Hi

More Bragging. Gen. Grant is boasting of his ability to whip Joe Johnston. McClellan need to brag in the same style. His daily bulletins from the Chickahominy to Washington, announcing that he had driven Johnston to the wall, &c., are not yet forgotten. There was scarcely a day in the siege of Richmond that McClellan did not whip Johnston — on paper. The grim Confederate chief made no reply in words, and we observe that he is equally silent now. Grant might learn wisdom and modesty frothe siege of Richmond that McClellan did not whip Johnston — on paper. The grim Confederate chief made no reply in words, and we observe that he is equally silent now. Grant might learn wisdom and modesty from the fate of McClellan. He might take a lesson in dignity and manliness from the veteran whom he boasts that he can demolish, and who may in addition favor him, perhaps, with one or two lessons upon the art of war, as taught by a great master, which he will remember till his last hou
