r Mumford, the New Orleans martyr. The late freshet in Roanoke river, N. C., was very heavy and destructive. Apprehensions are felt of severe losses in crops, cattle, &c., in Halifax and Northampton counties. The Cincinnati Commercial calls the New York Tribune's information regarding Unionism in Texas, "a cock and bull story." It is stated that Col. Graves, of the 8th Michigan regiment, was killed in the recent fight at Secessionville, S. C. Ample and well-arranged measures should be taken in season to procure a supply of fresh fruit and preserved vegetables for the use of our army. Mis. Mary C.

Ferguson has placed a guard around the bank, and swears that he will clean out the whole concern — books, money, bills of exchange, and all included."
