THE FUNNY CORNER
A YOISG LADY'S
sOL.IL.OQ, Y.
Uselessly, aimluBsly drtniiis through life,
Wht was I barn for? " For somebody's wife,'
I Ma told by my mother. Well, that being true,
"Somebody" keeps himself strangely from view ; :
And if nought but marriage will settle my fate, j
I believe I shall dia in an unsettled state.
For though I'm not ugly pray what woman is f !
Yoa might And a morelwautifnl phii ;
And then, as tor temper and manners, 'tis plain
He wb seeks for perfection will seek here in Tain ;
Nay, in spite of these drawbacks, my heart is per
verse, And I should not fl grateful, "for better or
worse," "
To take the first booby that graciously came
And fTered those treasures, nil home and his
' name.
I think, then, my chances of marriage are small ;
But why shonld I think of such chances at all ?
My brothers are, all of them, yoanger than I,
Tat they thrive in the world, and why not let me
try?
I know that in business I'm not an adept.
Because from such matters moat strictly I'm
kept;
But -tnis is the question that puzzles my mind
Why am 1 not trained up to work of some kind ?
Uselessly, aimlessly drifting throngh life,
Why should I wait to be " Somebody's wife ? "
-
An Incident. Gen. w! P. Benton,
who is now at home in this city, recruit
ing his health, which has been considera
bly shattered by constant service and ex
posure in the field, is, we are happy to
say, gradually getting better, although
yet suffering from camp diarrhoea. He
is anxious to join his gallant brigade,
and we hope he may soon be enabled to
do so, but not until he is "entirely well.
He gave us an incident that occurred
during the series of brilliant victories at
tending Gen. Grant's army in its circuit
from Port Gibson to the taking of Vicks
burg, that is worth preserving. On one
occasion a German Lieutenant rode np
to where Gen. Grant and his staff were
during the engagement, and inquired
for "Sheneral Useless Grant." o one
at first seemed to pay any attention to
him. when he again repeated his demand
to see Grant, and the General told him
he answered to that name, and requested
him to make known his wants-
" Well, Sheneral Useless Grant (giving
him the military 'salute,) I makes mine
report to you. I peloids to the pattery,
and de reps dey comes unt tnves ns
away and takes the guns.'' il Well, '
gays Gen. Grant, " you spiked the guns,
of course.'' '' Why, Shenerel," exclaim
ed the Lieutenant, " you don't dinks dat
we schpikes dem fine, beaatiful bieces,
ant schpoils dem?'' "Well, what did
you do then?" Asked the General.
" Why, Sbenrrsl. we shust coomes up
mit a Indiana rechmend, and sharped
de rebs, got ter guns pack, unt I coomes
nnt makes mine reports. Ah, we no
scbpike dose peautiful bieces."
The General received the report with
freat satisfaction, and commended the
,ietenit for his bravery, who rode
proudly back to his comrades, having ex
ecuted his important commission of re
porting to " Sheneral Useless Grant.

How the Ohio Election was Received
fat Chattanooga.
Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial
Chattaxoooa, Oct 16, 1863.
The newa of Vallandigham's defeat,
when announced to the Ohio troops,
caused a good deal of genuine, hearty
cheering, such as I have heard after the
reading of an official dispatch on dress
parade, proclaiming a signal victory for
our troops. The noise attracted the at
tention of the rebel pickets on our front,
and many of them inquired what it all
meant. The following conversation
ftebel "Say, lahl, wrUr s 'an that
noise about?"
TTijnn 'i-Tha Jiava are eheejinsr for
whipped."
Rebel " How do you know Vallan
digham aint elected? Your telegraph's
cut, aint it? "
Union " I don't know about that.
Rosey says Brough's elected."
Rebel Rosey' s a d d liar, I guess.
But is Brough elected, honest?"
Union " Yes he is, honest. "
Rebel (vociferously) "Officer of the
guard, No 6."
The officer of the guard made his ap
pearance very shortly, and asked what
was wanted. The rebel picket replied,
" Brough's elected, and Vallandigham is
whipped like helL You'd better send
word to General Bragg."
The pickets were told to find out how
the election went, if they could, and send
word to headquarters

TLp steady though gentle rain that
has fallen since Thursday night, has in
spired new hopes on thr1 part of steam
hoattnen, and there i.s srreut anxiety to
learn whether or not th: rain is general
and extends far up the river. The river
here had risen nine inbea up to four
o clot-k last evening. l)nr own impres
sion is that the rain is general, and that
it i.s the commencement of u " big thing"
in that line.
The rise here continues, and a great
number of sand hammocks have disap
peared since Thursday morning, and we
hope by Monday to be able to announce
that the bar in front of the city has
prettv generally disappeared. Indeed
the pattering of the rain, as we write,
gladdens our heart so that, were we a
poet, as are our brethren of the New Al
bany Ledger and Louisville Journal, we
would doubtless break forth into poetry,
but as " we isn't," we forbear.
The first fruita of the rise, slight as it
is, may be seen in the large list of arri
vals and departures, which we record
this morning.
It looked like old times to see nearly
a dozen steamers crowding our landing
at once, again. These, we presume, are
but the forerunners of the good time
coming.
The neat and swift Colossus, com
manded by the courteous and affable
Capt. Cox, with those popular clerks,
Banksmith and Dick Cox, in the office,
and Dr. Green in charge of the mail, en
tered her appearance yesterday morn
ing at 9 o'clock, to the great delectation
of many passengers and shippers, who
had been waiting and watching for sev
eral days- After reiurning from Hen-
-eon she took a large lot of flour fr.ora
o'clock for Louisville.
The J. T. McCombs, unable to cross
the bar at French Island, returned to
Louisville from that point.
There was no arrival from below up
to a late hour yesterday evening, and the
strong probability is that all the Cairo
packets have been drawn into the male
strom of the Government impressment.
If so, the people along the river should
not complain, as Gen. Grant has a vast
army that must be fed, and while the
Tennessee and Cumberland are up, it is
proper that every effort should be made
to throw forward sufficient supplies
to last nntill the spring floods come
Push forward the reinforcements!
Capt Hall's wharf-boat has been rest
ing on the sandy bed of the river for
some time, and now that the waters are
increasing and his wind-mill refuses to
operate, it becomes a question of some
solicitude whether it can be pumped out
by hand.
From the officers of the Colossus we
learn that they met the rain about It)
o'clock Thursday night near French
Island, and most of river men believe
we shall have a two foot rise independ
ent thereof.
Our handsome friend, Capt J. T. Fos
ter, has entered the Piketon in the
Green River trade as a regular semi
weekly packet. He will make sure con
nections, and promptly reship freight for
all points above Rumsey. Passengers
and shippers would do well to make a
note of it
Among the transports at the land-ng
yesterday was the Ella Faber, one of the
nicest stern-wheelerB on the river. She
was recently purchased by Capt. Tom
Gilmore for $18,000. He commands her
in person, and has just cause to be proud
of his new eraft. She is only about 10
months old.
The Missousi Democrat of yesterday
saya:
" Steamboatmen were cheered yester
day morning with the fact that the river
had rigen one and three-quarter inches,
which we trust is an earnest of several
feet additional. And again, a vast
amount of rain on Wednesday night, the
shower falling continually, and even ves
terday during daylight, there was very
little cessation in the aqueous supply.
" Latest news from the Missouri show
that river to be improving from Boon
ville down, with 27 inches at the Gascon
ade, and 30 inches at the mouth. For
all that, we have not renounced all hope
of a rise in the Missouri, as likewise the
Illinois and Upper Mississippi.
The Illinois nad been stationary for
some time, when the last boat was'in it
Mr. Hunter, pilot of the Lasalle, reports
30 inches through to Paoria. Nnthino-
has been heard for some time from the
! Illinois between Peoria and Lasalle.
; A Cairo dispatch to yesterday's St.
Louis Democrat says:
f The little Paducah and Cairo packet,
1 Mttie Cook, is the only boat on which
, freight can be shipped beyond Cairo,
j She took up to-day, for Paducah, 138
I bags cottee, 18 hogsheads and 60 barrels
I sugar, 33 barrels molasses, 50 kegs soda,
75 kits mackerel, and about ten tons
, miscellaneous freight
From this we would infer that the May
Duke has been " pressed." She may,
i however, arrive to-day. Thursday night
J was too dark and foggy to run.
The Upper Mississippi below Keokuk
has been improved but little, but has
swelled some above, all the way to -St.
Paul.
The Tenneseee river is reported to
have risen in the vicinity of Eastport
some eleven feet, and is still rising fast.
There have been heavy rains in that sec
tion, and boats with cannon, and boats
with cargoes, are now navigating the
Tennessee a3 well as the Cumberland.
