cause the imprisonment of his own father-in-law; will be remembered by our boys, and a day of reckoning will yet surely come. The negroes whom the Yankees have enticed or forced from their comfortable homes and taken to Knoxville are reported to be in a starving condition. The women and children, being wholly abandoned, are wandering about, begging from house to house to obtain a mouthful of bread, to the annoyance of the citizens and to the great distrust of the old negroes of the city. The display of Yankee bunting is one of the most noticeable features of the place. The Stars and Stripes float over the old bank and ry corner, and Baxter, Dickinson, et id omne genits, roll up their eyes in reverential adoration at the "old flag," as they did in the day when Andy Knott bid the ladies to salute their country's rag, the day when Trigg was non est, and when Fleming was mosed, and the old flag came down with a run and was safely stowed away in Barry & McDaniel's cake shop.

Broad Rock Races. --The two-mile-heat poststake, between Ward, Green and McDaniel, is expected to come off at 2 o'clock to-day if the weather is favorable, and will prove interesting to the lovers of the sports of the turf. Lady Blessington, the winner of the mile-heat stake, is the favorite in betting circles, and, from her handsome performances at her debut, is regarded as invincible at short distances. If she is fully herself to-day, she may win; but her competitors are good ones, and will give her work to-day. To-morrow the big match between Oakland and Conductor will be decided.--Each horse has his favorites, and large sums are already staked on the result.

Both horses are liberally backed by their friends, and each party is sanguine of winning.
