of durance. At that crisis I encon
tered him ; the stubborn sense he
evinced of being---not to compromise
the expression- a Laekgaurd, I never
saw exceeded in a human subject. A
flaring candle in a paper shade, stuck
in anmonglis periwinkles, showc-dhim
with his ragged harness broken and
his cart extensively shattered, twitch
ing and shaking his hanging head, a
picture of disgrace and obduracy, I
have seen boys taken to the statios
house who were ar like him as his
own brother.
CAPTUdE OF FEDERAL GUNS.
Day before yesterday the Federals
on the Mississippi river, above Fort
Pillow, became anxious to furnish
their friends on this side of the river
with a 13-inch mortar and a large
field peice. To carry out their wish
es, and for other purposes best known
to theniselves, they built a large raft
and put the guns upon it, and moved
it with sixteen men. It was then
worked across the river, and while
floating down the eastern bank was
captured by our pickets. The raft,
the muortar and the gnn, with theam
munition, will doubtless do good ser
vice for the independence of the Con
federacy hereafter. [Memphis Ava

Corinth is a towin of about 2,000
