ficulties the character of which only those can conceive who have passed over them. The present rain will probably double these. One of the roads along the river is rendered unsafe by the bushwhackers firing from the South bank. It was natural for the enemy to attempt to cut the long thread of railroads — over three hundred miles--that alone connects us with the North, by dint of cavalry raids. It is to be hoped that our cavalry will prevent the mischief contemplated by the bands of Wheeler and Forrest, now again loose in Middle Tennessee and Southern Kentucky. If they should succeed in breaking our railroad connections for any considerable length of time, a retrograde movement by our forces cannot be avoided. Whatever the future may have in store for us it is obvious that the rebels are masters of the situation — at least so far as the power to shape it is with them. That they have improved the time of quietude elapsed since the battles to repair damages and gather add

As the jailors of Hanover and Louisa declined receiving him on account of the condition of their jails, I have kept him near me. His hair is nearly straight; says he belongs to Wm Watts, and reports his name Jack. If the owner will pay the cost of this advertisement, and prove his title to the boy, he will be delivered up.

From Charleston. Charleston, Oct. 28. --The fire on Sumter from Gregg, Wagner, and three monitors, has been incessant since 10 o'clock this morning. The monitors drew off at seven this evening, but Gregg and Wagner are still firing rapidly from 300 pound Parrot guns.--Six hundred and seventy-nine shots have been fired at Sumter, eighty-eight of which have missed. They were nearly all directed at the sea face. No damage of consequence to the fort, but the sea wall is pretty well batteries kept up a regular fire on Morris Island. One gun at battery Gregg is reported to have been silenced last night by a shot from Moultrie.

The renegade Southrons. We have already referred to the fact that Gen. Thomas, the successor of Rosecrans, is a native of Southampton, Virginia. Commodore Farragut, who captured New Orleans, is a Tennessean, and Admiral Dahlgren, who has been trying to capture Charleston, is another degenerate son of the South. In truth, from Winfield Scott down, some of the bravest and most efficient officers in both branches of the Yankee service are native-born Southern men, who have deliberately preferred the wages of iniquity to the service of their country. There is no compromise between the enormity of such conduct and the crime of the Yankees. Upon the latter there rest no obligations of common birthplace, common associations, and kindred blood. Those kites and vultures were not hatched from the eagles' eggs. They were not warmed into life in Southern nests, nor borne upon Southern pinions in their first flights from the native eyrie. But the Southern renegade is "bone of our b

--We make the following extract, says the Bangor (Me.) Whig, from the letter of a young man in China, formerly residing here, to a relative in this city: Shanghai, Sunday, June 28. I must tell you about a second edition of Bull Run that we had here last spring. Shortly after I got back from Japan the commander of the Imperial army sent a force out to take a rebel city, about thirty miles from Shanghai, and I, like a fool, volunteered my services, expecting to see some fun and get some loot. We had about eight hundred Chinese soldiers, but the officers were all English and American. --It took us nearly two days to march thirty miles overnglo-Saxon race over the long tailed inhabitants of this Celestial Empire was seen. In fifteen minutes the Chinese soldiers were half a mile astern. I got into Shanghai that night in about the same state that our father Adam was before his wife made him that first pair of pants.--Now, you needn't write and advise me to try it ag
