Intercepted Correspondence.
The .National Intelligencer has pub-ho-Ji
Mr. lionjamin's letters to Messrs.
Mi' son and Slidell, veccntlinterceptcJ.
We see nothing in them to givo much
com fort, to the enemy. An allusion to
Karl :: -. ell's want of civility to Mr.
Mason, and Mr. Benjamin's suspicion
of French designs on Texan, are tho
only matters .,t interest. The ground
of Mr. Ji.'s suspicion i,that France in
tends to hold Mexico, and wants a
weak Power lot ween its new Colony
and the Confederate States; and also
wants an independent cotton supply,
which Texas, a Avealc nation and do
pendent on France, would afford.
Tho French Consul at Galveston has
been dismissed tho country for his
agency in tho matter though it is not
known that ho had the authority of his
Government. "
Interesting Re-capture.
At tho battlo of Fishing Creek, whero
our forces wero defeated under the
lamented Zollicoffer, our baggage fell
into tho enemy's hands. In the trunk
of a Confederate Captain, belonging to
the 15th Mississippi Kegiment. thoro
was a packago of letters received from
his sister in Mississippi at various
times. This trunk was taken also,
with its contents At tho battle of
Shiloh, on Sunday evening after tho
terrible route of tho Abolition army,
this captain of tho 15th rushed into a
Yankee tent, broke open an officers
trunk and iound the packago of letters
in question.

Quietness in Front.
Xothingof importance has transpired
in front, save and accept that of an oc
casional dash by our cavalry among
tho Abolitionists. Van J"orn has cer
tainly crossed tho Tennessee, and is
reported at Tullahoma. Our army oc
cupies its old position. Owe Division
of JRosccrans arm), is said to be this
' side of Murfrecsboro.
Eorcc Marines.
In tho absence of naval power, our
cavalry in Texas and Teunesseo aro
acting amphibiously "half horse, half
alligator" in capturing gun-boats and
transports. Gen. Wheeler, at last ac
counts, was on another raid at the wa
ter craft.
.-Explanatory. In our remarks to
correspondents in yesterday's issue, wo
professed to agree with a contributor
in his views about absentees from the
army, and mado it appear as if officers
were at this post without propor au
thority, which was not our intention.
Such mayor may not bo tho caso. We
don't know. But certainly wo did not
intend to reflect upon the vigilanco of
Col. R." M. Cox, tho Commandant hero.
He is as faithful and efficient in the
dischargo of his duties as an officer
could be.
Those who aro so unfortunate as to
bo the slaves of tobacco, can render the
slavery far more "plaisant" by chewing
that which is good. Such a luxury can
bo found at Torapleton's store. ' Those
of our office who love tho plant say it
is the best they have "chawed" since
the days of peace, low prices, and hon
esty. ' '
Tho now store' opened by W. C.Mun
sou will attract a brisk trade. Ho ad
vertises a good assortment of liouso-
r I MOfos-ulies, and wo know ho is of-
ft ii t hem at a vcrv moderate advanco
i! .'.,-4 of Mich iu Atlanta. Give
( !? .new stow a call.
J3T Northern editors and .Corres
pondents aro becoming inoro'un mOiv
bitter every day in their denunciation
of the ' Administrative policy of Abra
ham Lincoln. Tho ro action going
on is truly gratifying to every lov
er of freedom and States -Rights.
The New York Herald and Chicago
Times, besides many other loading
journals, aro oxemplifiying a hostil
ity to Abraham that shows very
clearly that their reflection aro being
tolerated by the great vox.populioi
tho United States at' least a majwity
of sober, thinking men who aro now
des'rous ot a cessation of hostilities
and a restoration of peace. Wo . will
preseut to our readers daily tho say
ings of those leading men, who have
heretofore advocated a vigorous prose
tution of tho war.
Tho anticipated recognition on
tho part of Franco'terribly alarms old
Bennett of tho New York Herald
He is fearful that Napoleon is going to
do something, and that, too, very quick.
"Whom tho gxls would destroy thoy
first mako mad." Bonnet is dreadful
ly a armad, and fears that lostruction
of all Abolitiondom is certain. God
grant that he may soon exclaim, to
gether with his adherents :
Plunged in a gulf of dark d spnir,
Wo wretched fanatics lay,
"Without onu cheering beam of hopo,
Or spark of glimmering day !
Some follow who had on a heavy car
go of the "over-joyful," yesterda-, ac
cidehtly allowed "old mother earth" to
riso up and strike him on tho hoadin a
most unearthly manner, and brought
him down full length on her snow-covered
bosom. After several vain at
tempts ho succeeded in pulling up by
the snow which he cursed for being ho
rotten, and staggering t ) a pile of wood
cli,so by, wanted to know ''what in the
h II open space was blockaded for!"
'Twasa blockade and blockhead affair,
and conducted with spirit.
JCST Oi l winter is again with us,
with a severity of weather, rain, snow,
and ice. Yesterday was quite a raw
day. Its freaks make those in adver
sity feel awful and n.elancholy. How
truthfully can they exclaim with the
bard :
"Adversity ; cold frosts will soon bo o'er s
It neralils brighter days: the joyous spring
Is craiiu-d on uie winter's icy breast,
And comes flushed in beauty."
Some one has prcsonted tho
editor, of tho Tallahassa Sentinel a
"bran now hat," and thereupon the
lucky oditor goes into ecstasies. ' Wo
hope no one will bo so rash as to pre
sent either of tho editors of the Bullo
tin with a hat these times, for hats cost
twenty dollars apiece, and wo would
bo compelled to roturn any such ex
travagant present. ,
We were somewhat amusod the oth
er day at two little boys telegraphing
with a clothosline. Boy No. 1 callod
Louisville. Boy No. 2 answered and
wantod to know if ho was all right, or'
was ho Morgan's operator. Satisfied
on this point, boy No. 2 stated that.
Richmond had been taken. No. 1 for.
got himself, givo No. 2 tho lie,' and
broke up tho mimic telegraphic confab.
Our Grapevine. The latest per bur
Grapevine is that Gen. Van Born has
crossed Tennncsseo' river 'with 4000
cavalry. Also, that fighting is going
on at Frodericksburg. Wo prognosti
cate that the Confederates .will, as
usual, come off victorious. . . , !-..-

tf tin Confederate prisoner- "who was taken
at tho battlo of Jturfretfcborp and sent td
Nashvillo by Kosocrans. Wo had tho plcas
uro of forming his acquaintance yesterday
evening and hearing his report in regard to
bis escape from the enemy. Lt B. had been
closely, guarded, by A sentinel up to the . 1 4th
of this tnonthj when a favorablo opportunity
was presented for him to make good his es
cape, which ho did by knocking down ' the
sentinel, then donned himself in citizen's
dress, made a few hasty ' observations, passod
the Abolition pickets and arrived here a few
days ago in good health and pirits.
During the Lieutenant's slay among tho
Abolitionists ho conversed with many of the
most intelligent officers and privates, and they
oppressed to him the belief and hopo that tho
war would soon bo brought to arioso. Many
of tho Yankees boldly assort that they aro not
fighting to free tho negroes, but for tho restor
ation of tho Union, In reforeneo to the but
tle of Murfroesboro soino claim a victory,
whilst othors, who aro moro truthful, wickedly
assert that "a few more such victories wiO
send them all to h 11!" .
"Lt. J3. says that bo counted no less than COO
ambulances filled with tho wounded, and tho
city is -crowded with the wounded ono vast
hospital ! There aro in "tho city also about
80UU negroes. Wo congratulate tho gentle
man in being . again rustored to his friends,
and to his command and his brave and gal
lant hero, Gen. John C. Brecklnrklgo.
