ing tone prevails in regard to the future, while business in every place is completely prostrated.--Dixie, in some quarters, is evidently getting somewhat tired of the job of whipping the Yankees. A letter dated Pittsboro', Miss., Jan. 30, and addressed to "Dr. Darrah, Fort Henry, Col. Drake's regiment," has the following important items of information: F. G. Enochs got home from Jackson, and brings very bad news concerning the condition of our Southern Confederacy. He says Col. Blithe was sent down to Jackson by Gen. Polk to inform the Legislature of the condition they were in, and their danger at Columbus, in order that the Legislature might inform the people of Mississippi. Generally they (rebels at Columbus) could not give the people information of their condition through the papers, because they would give it to the North. They have only 12,000 men at Columbus, and they have a force of about 110,000 to contend against. In a few days there will be a call for 20,0

There are several comfortable log and temporary board houses in the fort, and these are now occupied by Gen. Grant, his staff, and body guard. Private correspondence found here, from Georgia and others of the extreme Southern States, indicate that the greatest consternation exists there in consequence of the defeat and death of Zollicoffer. Writers from several points state, to their friends at the fort, that companies, and, in one or two cases, regiments, were cut completely to pieces; but in almost every instance they lay the blame on Gen. Crittenden, who, they say, was drunk, and led the army on purpose to betray it to the Nationals.

Davis and Freedom. In fact, the magnitude or their love is only equalled by one single thing, and that is their contempt — yea, their utter loathing — for the Yankees. In these letters the Northerners are all Yankees; they are nasty Yankees; they are dirty Yankees; cowardly Yankees; infernal Yankees; d — d Yankees — in short, every kind of Yankees that the dictionary of abuse, and Billingsgate affords a cognomen for. How many of these letters chuckle over the approach of these hated Yankees
