current among the prominent secession of this city and is founded on private communications received larly from the Trans-Mississippi Department of rebeldom. While the country was in expectancy and anxiety concerning the movements of General Sherman in Georgia, a rebel courier was captured near Morganzia Louisiana, with a duplicate of an order, signed by. General Cooper, Adjutant-General of the South, ordering Kirby Smith to immediately transfer twenty thousand men to the command of Dick Taylor, at Meridian, Mississippi. The order was a duplicate, marked "Duplicate No. 3," and is now on file in the War Department. The information was kept secret, but was transmitted to headquarters in this city for the guidance of General Rosecrans. It was dated Richmond, November 22. The order was peremptory; but had never been obeyed, and never will be, because the troops under Kirby Smith were merely enlisted for service west of the Mississippi — a fact which transpired in the course of a
of the Mobile Register, writing from Tupelo, Mississippi, on the 19th, gives some intelligence about affairs in the Army of Tennessee. He says: "I telegraphed you that General Hood had been relieved at his own request, and that Lieutenant General Dick Taylor would assume command. The latter arrived here upon a special train last night, and will doubtless enter upon his duties as commander-in-chief to day. "The army, rank and file, seem to be perfectly indifferent as to any change which may be made that does not bring back to them their pride and idol — Joseph E. Johnston. "I do not, by this, mean to reflect for a moment upon the military capacity and genius of General Taylor--I am only echoing a still small voice which comes up from the innermost depths of the army, and will not be bushed. "The news of General Hood's retirement from command having spread through the army, though not officially announced, drew together quite a crowd last night while he was being
reasons, prominent among which was a consideration for their health, who suddenly discovered that it was decidedly more healthy at home. The coming campaign in Tennessee. A letter from Nashville gives the following about the expected movements of troops in Tennessee: Although the main army operations are at a perfect stand-still for the present, I think that, the roads and weather permitting, offensive movements against the enemy will soon be inaugurated.--What little force Dick Taylor may have at his command will prove a very slight barrier to the progress of events, and Selma, Montgomery, Mobile, and all important points in the Southwest--in fact, the whole Southwest will, before a great while, be under Union control. With the present forces under Generals Thomas and Canby, and in the absence of extra-ordinary and egregious blundering, such a consummation can hardly be long deferred. The Trans-Mississippi rebel opposition will be of very small moment when once the m
War Department. On the 4th of February, 1865, the entire available force of the Confederacy was 152,000 men. They were distributed as follows: Lee's army64,000 Bragg, including Hoke's division9,000 Beauregard and Hardee22,000 Dick Taylor, D. H. Hill and Howell Cobb7,000 West of Mississippi50,000 total152,000 the 22,000 under Beauregard and Hardee includes the late army of Hood and all the forces which evacuated Savannah and Charleston. The 9,000 of Bragg includes all the garrison of Wilmington. These 31,000 men constitute the bulk of the army now under Johnston in North Carolina, with such additions as have lately been made. The 7,000 under Taylor, Hill and Cobb, are, or were, scattered through Georgia, Alabama and Mississippi, part of them constituting the present garrison of Mobile. of Hood's army the following is a correct numerical statement: Entered Tennessee47,000 Came out17,500 Net loss of the campaign29,500 In East Tennessee and

These causes are permanent, and must always have an active existence. The majesty of the National power has been exhibited in the coura
multitude of routed, beaten, discomfited men, whose valor has almost atoned for the sins of rebellion!" "Our gallant grey brothers are even now clamoring around Washington," &c. "So with the Generals of the Rebellion. The greatest of them all is now a teacher of mathematics in a university. Sherman's great antagonists are in the express and railroad business. The once-dreaded Beauregard will sell you a ticket from New Orleans to Jackson; and, if you want to send a couple of hams to a friend in Richmond, Joe Johnston, once commander of great armies, will carry them. The man whose works Grant moved upon at Donelson edits an indifferent newspaper in New Orleans, while the Commander of the Rebel cavalry at Corinth is his local reporter. Marshall practices law in New Orleans; Forrest is running a saw-mill; Dick Taylor is now having a good time in New York; Roger A. Pryor is a daily practitioner at our courts; and so with the rest of this bold, vindictive and ambitious race of men."
nks in Louisiana and Alabama, which could be easily identified, he furnished a description of them. It was his custom to take a list of his notes every night. The next morning, on going to the banking-house of Messrs. William B. Isaacs & Co., Mr. Taylor was in the act of examining some Louisiana notes offered for sale by the prisoner, which, on being shown to him, he identified one of the notes as one that had been stolen from him. The prisoner was detained while he could go for an officer. He afterwards left the house, and was pursued down Main street to Seventeenth, with great cries of "catch the thief"; and as he was crossing the canal bridge he was stopped by two men and taken into custody. Mr. Taylor testified that on Tuesday morning, on his arrival at his place of business, (Messrs. Isaacs & Co.'s,) he heard of the robbery of Mr. Weith. Soon after this, the prisoner came in and offered for sale some money of a description like that lost by Mr. Weith. --While examining th

An interesting Sunday School meeting. --One of the most delightful hours of the Christmas to us was that spent on Monday at the anniversary meeting of the Leigh Street Baptist Sunday School. Rev. W. H. Williams made his annual report, and was re-elected Superintendent — a better appointment could not have been made. The other old officers, E. C. Gordon, E. S. Turpin and — Porter, were also reelected. Rev. Drs. Jeter, Taylor, Burrows and Price delivered addresses, which we have never heard excelled on any similar occasion. The school is in a prosperous condition, and growing rapidly in interest and numbers. The pastor (Rev. Mr. Dickinson) expressed the hope that before the next anniversary it would number seven hundred and fifty scholar
