the most convenient. For the last forty hours it has been raining steadily. Teamsters who came in this morning report the road over the mountains as very bad indeed. Portions of the river and railroad between this place and Bridgeport are in the hands of the rebels, who must be cleaned out before our position is a pleasant one. As to its safety, there is but little or no question. So far as conveniences are concerned, we have forgotten all about them. Miscellaneous.

Rosecrans did not believe his own tale, his men did not believe it, the world at large treated it with contempt, and the powers at Washington have shown that they knew it to be a lie by cutting off his head.

They were carried to Cincinnati, and from thence he and twenty-eight of his officers were selected and carried to Columbus, Ohio, where they were shaved and their hair cut very close by a negro convict.--They were then marched to the bath room and scrubbed, and from there to their cells, where they were locked up. The Federal papers published, with great delight, a minute account of the whole proceedings. Seven days afterwards forty-two more of General Morgan's officers were conveyed from Johnson's Island to the penitentiary and subjected to the same indignities. I have seen Colonel D.
