Another flag of Truck. The Confederate News, of the 5th inst., says: About three o'clock P. M. yesterday, a Federal steamer came in sight above town with the white flag afloat. As usual, curiosity was on tiptoe. Multitudes crowded the wharf, the eminences, and even the housetops. The Yazoo, haut 150 good fellows who had been made prisoners at Camp Jackson, who by the unremitting exertions of Gen. Frost have at last been enabled to set their foot on Dixie's Land. From East Tennessee. The Columbus (Ky.) Confederate News, of the 5th inst, says: As we expected, the information last night fails utterly of any confirmation of the report of an outbreak of Unionists in East Tennessee. The reported attack at Morristown was a canard. Everything in that region is quiet; insurr

ound to this port, supposing there was no blockade, which want of information will be unfortunate for her owners, as she will no doubt be seized. From Fort Holt, Ky--two Lincolnites killed. From the Columbus (Ky.) Confederate News, of the 6th inst., we take the following: We have just received additional news that it has been admitted at Camp Holl that two men were killed by the firing from one of our gun-boats, "Gen. Polk," last Sunday. It is said to have been occasioned by a plug bomb, which fell inside the fort and exploded. Old Harvey brown dead. The Montgomery Mail, of the 6th instant, says: There has been a rumor upon our streets several days that Col. Brown, of Fort Pickens, has died of a wound received in the late fight below Pensacola. Passengers up from that city this morning, say the report is firmly believed, but not positively known to be true. Rich Scenes Occurring among the Lincoln soldiery.

From the South. The following comprises the most interesting items which our latest Southern exchanges contained: Latest from Fort Royal--more Burning of cotton. From the Charleston Courier, of the 9th instant, we extract the following: We learn from a friend that on Wednesday night a mounted detachment of the Beaufort Artillery, under their Captain, amounting to twenty-two men, passed over to the island, visited Beaufort, whose utter desolation and abandonment was relieved only by the presence of one light and the barking of a dog.--There were no signs of the enemy, either on land or on water. Our men then proceeded to the work of destruction. The chief object of the expedition was to destroy the crops of cotton and provisions on Paris Island, which being near to the enemy was crowded by the negroes who had flocked there to escape from the control of their owners. Owing to the absence of boats, this object was but partially effected. A canoe, holding three

Passengers up from that city this morning, say the report is firmly believed, but not positively known to be true. Rich Scenes Occurring among the Lincoln soldiery. The following article which we take from the Columbus (Ky.) Confederate News, of the 14th inst., shows with what prominence the negro question figures in the Lincoln movements in Kentucky: There is at Fort Holt a regiment commanded by Col. Cook, and another commanded by Col. Johnson,--the former Abolition, the latter Southern Illinoisan, and nearly honest enough to belong to the Southern army. It fell out a few days since that a runaway slave was pursued into the camp by a Union man, with an order from Gen. Grant for his surrender. Notice being had of this, the fellow was

The Bowling Green correspondent of the Nashville Union writes, under date of the 4th instant, as follows: Information of an official character has reached here that Gen. Zollicoffer, with a large force, has retired from Cumberland Gap and is at Burksville, on the North bank of Cumberland river, about one hundred and twenty my horses and some other valuables, took the crew prisoners, and set fire to and burned the boat. This information we derive from a gentleman from the other side of the river, and who knows. Another gun-boat. The Confederate News, of the 4th inst., says: There is a large, black, ugly looking customer lying at anchor opposite our wharf, in just about the same place in which the Northern gun-boat A. O. Tyler lay on the 1st September. This boat is a novelty to us. She looks for al

It will next excuse and then defend Jennison, the Jayhawker, for stealing Missourians' negroes: Thirty-eight negroes arrived in Leavenworth on Sunday, the 17th, having been freed by Jennison, and a great number went to Lawrence. Millions of dollars worth of this kind of property are now running about in Kansas. Leavenworth is crowded with them, and Lawrence has a larger number. The prisoners confined at Newport Barracks. The Louisville Journal says: TheLawrence has a larger number. The prisoners confined at Newport Barracks. The Louisville Journal says: The prisoners confined at Newport Barracks, Ky., recently captured at Piketon, have made a proposition to enlist as soldiers in the United States army.

Geo. B. Crittenden has assumed command of the remaining forces at Cumberland Gap, numbering, in addition to late reinforcements, a larger army than that of the late commandant. The statement as to the whereabouts of Gen. Zollicoffer will, it is believed, be found correct, as gentlemen direct from Barren county report his pickets as having advanced thirty miles from Banksville. A reliable citizen of Hardin county, who left Elizabethtown last Saturday, reports the larger portion of Gen. Buell's army, numbering full thirty thousand men, at Camp Nevin, near Nolin; where they are making extensive preparations for wintering. The railroad bridge over Nolin creek, lately destroyed by Southern-Rights citizens of Kentucky, and afterwards rebuilt under direction of Gen. Roussean, was washed away last Friday, the creek, owing to the recent heavy rains, having swollen to an unusual height. It is reported that 4,000 Federalists are at Upton Staten, distant about ten miles from Green

d to drive every Union man from his home before he commenced the same work of the devil in the Blue Grass region: Prestonsburg, Oct. 21, 1861. Henry M. Rust Dear Sir: --I am in receipt of your of yesterday. The army we are rallying here is intended to defend the mountains. We shall sweep the mountains of every foe before we move forward. The right mode for the mountain people to defend their homes is to come in at once and bring their guns. I received instructions from Richmond yesterday to muster in for twelve months. Get up a force at once; a force strong enough to defend Pike county. I want a force at Pikesville immediately. I will muster them there for twelve months. Attend to this at once; no time is to be lost. Don't rest a moment until it is done. Yours, truly, John S. Williams. Victory of death. The following are the concluding pages of the inaugural address of Gov. Brown, of Georgia. The Governor but gives expression to the unal

different course. Another flag of Truck. The Confederate News, of the 5th inst., says: About three o'clock P. M. yesterday, a Federal steamer came in sight above town with the white flag afloat. As usual, curiosity was on tiptoe. Multitudes crowded the wharf, the eminences, and even the housetops. The Yazoo, having a portion of the staff of Gen. Pillow and perhaps other officers, went up to the flag. On her return she brought with her about 150 good fellows who had been made prisoners at Camp Jackson, who by the unremitting exertions of Gen. Frost have at last been enabled to set their foot on Dixie's Land. From East Tennessee. The Columbus (Ky.) Confederate News, of the 5th inst, says: As we expected, the information last night fails utterly of any confirmation of the report of an outbreak of Unionists in East Tennessee. The reported attack at Morristown was a canard. Everything in that region is quiet; insurrection is effectually quelled.

thorized in saying that there is no force at Paducah, such as would indicate an advance movement from that quarter. If the half that is told us of the demoralization of the army there, resulting from the known rupture between Gens. Smith and Payne be true, they will have enough to do to take care of themselves. Gen. Smith and Payne are at open enmity, and their friends, instead of hoping or endeavoring to heal the breach, are engaged in widening it by letters containing matter of crimPayne are at open enmity, and their friends, instead of hoping or endeavoring to heal the breach, are engaged in widening it by letters containing matter of crimination and recrimination, as bitter as hate itself. Jeff. Thompson Turns up again — he Captures another steamer. This indefatigable patriot is never idle, and whenever we hear from him, we find that his energies have been successful in advancing the cause of the South. From the Confederate News, of Columbus, Ky., Dec. 4, we take the following paragraph: A few days since Gen. Thompson, by a stratagem, captured the steamer Empress, on her trip from St. Louis to Cairo. Jeff only
