Parson BrowxLow.—The following is the latest intelligence which we have from the reduubtable, parson, as contained in the St. Louir correspondent of the Atta: The Parson’s adventures are not finished yet, Inthe Confederate Covrt at Kuoxville,on the 291b ult., a nolle prosegut was entered in the case of Parson Brownlow, on the ground that having surrendered bimself voluntarily, oa condition that the Government would agree to convey bim out of East Tennessee, and protect bis exit. The faith of the Government being pledged, his discharge wae ordered. The Knoxville Register remarks ov the arrest as follows: “Whether Brownluw was well enough to leave the jail last night, or what has be. come of him, we have not learned; though we understand it was the intention of the commander of the post here to bold bim uoder arrest, with a view to his safe conduct beyond the lines, where he may be able to co-operate with Johnson and Mayoard The release was by the Court authorities, Immediately upon his discharge Brownlow was te arrested by Col. Monrarrat, Military Commander, and remanded to custody. MysTenious Proverpines IN THE BSouTH. —From all we can Jearn by our correepondents and from the regular budgets of news, a movement of some description threatening the peace of Sonora from the American boundary is being actively pushed forward, by parties connected with the disunion movement in Arizona and New Mexico, We koow tbat Vao Dorn, Baylor and others, bave been very quiet in their proeeedings for some time past, and secreey on the part of such restless and disorganizing spirits indicates mischief ahead. That a scheme is afoot for the seizure of Guaymas by the rorces of which this expedition is composed, there can be no question, and that it is in some manner connected with the scheme of conquest embraced in the origina) plao of the seceders, it does not require much re flection to fee) assared of, Enough has been ascertained by General Wright, the present commander of the Federal forces on the Pacific coast, to convince him that sucha eh is under full headway, and to justify im ia making application to the governing authorities for permission to occupy Guaymas to prevent its seizure by Southern people.—[{Herald and Mirror, Smvcuian Deatu.—On the 14th inst., at Plat’s ranch, in this county, a young man named Wm. E. Summers, nephew of Capt. Summers, of the steamboat Swallow, aged 23 yeare, died under very singular circumstances. He wasa young mat of excellent habits, and in the full enjoyment of good health. Afler partaking of a hearty meal, he left tbe bouse in company with another young man, and proceeded to cut some wood near the dwelling. He proposed to hiscomrade to carry in while he cut some of the fael. Upoo the young man taking an armfull into the bouse avd returning, be found Summers npon the ground with bis head resting upon his band, and bis elbow supportiug the same from the ground. Upon being asked asto what was the matter, be remark: d, incoberently, “tbat ox bow,’’ He was carried into the bouse and soon expired. He bad been engaged in driving cattle during the day. aud may have been injured by a blow of some nature, but notbing could be discovered to account for the cause of his death.—[ Marysville Express, Tue Sarrretae Surpty.—The Newark Mercury says: Large quantities of nitrate of soda, or South American saltpetre, av it ie called, are obtained in Chili and Peru, and this may be easily converted into the parest of ealtpetre, as it was daring the Russian wat, wheo the markets of that country were supplied with saltpetre thas manufactured in this country, and sbipped to Russia by way of Hamburg. Saltpetre can also be obtained in the United States from the limestone caves that abound in Kentucky and otber gections, This was almost our only source of eopply doriog our last wer with Englaod. which cut us off from our dependence upon ber lodian possessions, Earth yielding 15 per cent. of nitre is said to be found near Nasbville, Tenn., in quantities sufficient to supply the entire country. An Exopeuext.—The wife of William Blackstone, of Portland, Oregon, eloped with a man in bisemploy, named Edward Moore, a short time since. The injured base band publishes a card, of a colamn io length in the Advertiser, in which he sets forth bis grievances, stating that bis wife took nearly all the household goes except the stove, aod but for its we ght would probably have taken that also. disconsolate husband endeavors to console bimeelf with the reflection that the said wife has been constant in her endeavors to “kick up a fuss.”’ NUMBER Cie dition of the Rebel Ariny. According to the statements of late Southera papers the rebel army ntithberr about 260,000 hen. Of these, some 80,000 are twelve months’ men whose term of enlistment will expire in the course of'a month or two, avd ateording to rebel authority, they refuse, almost toa ian, to re-enliat. The Richmond Bxaminer, of January 2, drawsa gloomy pictore of affairs in rebeldom, aod io regard to the condition of the army, eaysi The present condition of dur artiy ie a cause of severe and painful anxiety, Demoralization is creeping in, from tbe intane aud reckless neglect of the Government to sustain and to cultivate the spirit of out soldiery. There is too mach drunkenness among the officers on the Potomac, add too mueh vacant idling among the men. We are informed as a positive fact that in the major ity of the army on the Potomat, the practice of regimental drills bas fallen into complete disuse, * * * What can be predicted but utter demoraligation for an army whose condition js that of tens of thousands of men living in utter idleness, groveling in their tents, with no octupation bot what is afforded by the greasy pack of cards that is the inevitable inmate of every tent, or the yellow covered novel, whose wretched and perbaps filthy entertaintnent has more than once gone the rounds of the ag ay 3 e cannot shut our eyes to the fact, that the army is becoming a name of terror and dread to the minds of our citizens, The newspapers are still filled with advertisements of bonuses fur ‘substitutes,’ although the War Department has adopted a rule restricting the number of substitutions to one in each company. The rates paid for substitutes are enormous. We are informed that they average from $200 to $250; and we have been told of a recent instance where $1,500 was paid for the prompt procurement of a substitote to take the place of a private suddenly constrained to leave the army. Evidences stare us in the face of the unwillingness of men to accept the life of famine, dirt aod vacant idleness fh the army. Richmond is filled with soldiers who bave come out of the bospitale, or who have got here on rome pretense or other, applying for discharges and striving and wriggling in all sorts of ways to get oat of the army. It was but a few days ago that a soldier, discharged from one of the bospitals here, committed suicide rather than be constrained to return to the army. There is no unwillingness aniong our young men to serve thelr country. There are thousands who would willingly go with their lives on their slevees to battle with the enemy, and to attest a devoted and courageous patriotism, but who dread to betake themselves to the wretehed, half fed life of dirt, vacancy and idleness in campe. This is the restraint upon volunteering. * .* * © © Why was it that when oor roldicre were daily dying by hundreds, the Government did not show the common humanity of the small measures of instituting a medical commission to examibe the camps and if possible, check the progress and rayages of dieeage. The Richmond Examiner, of January 4th, referring to the army, save: Doomed to inaction, and rotting on straw we have lost more by disease than a dozen victories bave cost; and we have lost the national reputation we enjoyed for dash and elan, Unless there is a promise,fand one to be relied on, of a total change In thie policy of the great Canctator, we shall have no more volunteers after the expiration of the present term. f Accipexts In Sierra.—The La Porte Messenger of the 15th,’ gives accounts of three accidents which.occurred ia that vicinity last week: Jake Keifer,a German, while runing @ car io a mining tunnel at Second Ravine, had bis teeth knocked out and skal! fractared by the car bouncing from the track. He wilt recover, Joba Haas, coasting on snow shoes, struck ona fence, dislocating bis kuee, fracturing both bones of the leg and displacing the kneepau. This was at Newark. At Port Wine, on the 9th, a loaded car, running down an incline, struck Mr, Van Burea Wilson io the back, killing him almost instant, From THe Orner Sipe.—The Sonora en has a letter from an old resident of Tuolumpe county, now at Victoria, V. L, who conclades a letter about the Cariboo mines as follows: The placer itself is limited, pto: visions and other necessaries at outrageous prices; no new discoveries have been made since the last of July. August aod September are the only two which prospecting or work can be ‘and this season without result. M ie, that the whole affair is a speculation of traders, tavern-keepers and he through emition, expect to get labor; a new 58 and nothing more! ‘

Parson BrowxLow.—The following is the latest intelligence which we have from the reduubtable, parson, as contained in the St. Louir correspondent of the Atta: The Parson’s adventures are not finished yet, Inthe Confederate Covrt at Kuoxville,on the 291b ult., a nolle prosegut was entered in the case of Parson Brownlow, on the ground that having surrendered bimself voluntarily, oa condition that the Government would agree to convey bim out of East Tennessee, and protect bis exit. The faith of the Government being pledged, his discharge wae ordered. The Knoxville Register remarks ov the arrest as follows: “Whether Brownluw was well enough to leave the jail last night, or what has be. come of him, we have not learned; though we understand it was the intention of the commander of the post here to bold bim uoder arrest, with a view to his safe conduct beyond the lines, where he may be able to co-operate with Johnson and Mayoard The release was by the Court authorities, Immediately upon his discharge Brownlow was te arrested by Col. Monrarrat, Military Commander, and remanded to custody. MysTenious Proverpines IN THE BSouTH. —From all we can Jearn by our correepondents and from the regular budgets of news, a movement of some description threatening the peace of Sonora from the American boundary is being actively pushed forward, by parties connected with the disunion movement in Arizona and New Mexico, We koow tbat Vao Dorn, Baylor and others, bave been very quiet in their proeeedings for some time past, and secreey on the part of such restless and disorganizing spirits indicates mischief ahead. That a scheme is afoot for the seizure of Guaymas by the rorces of which this expedition is composed, there can be no question, and that it is in some manner connected with the scheme of conquest embraced in the origina) plao of the seceders, it does not require much re flection to fee) assared of, Enough has been ascertained by General Wright, the present commander of the Federal forces on the Pacific coast, to convince him that sucha eh is under full headway, and to justify im ia making application to the governing authorities for permission to occupy Guaymas to prevent its seizure by Southern people.—[{Herald and Mirror, Smvcuian Deatu.—On the 14th inst., at Plat’s ranch, in this county, a young man named Wm. E. Summers, nephew of Capt. Summers, of the steamboat Swallow, aged 23 yeare, died under very singular circumstances. He wasa young mat of excellent habits, and in the full enjoyment of good health. Afler partaking of a hearty meal, he left tbe bouse in company with another young man, and proceeded to cut some wood near the dwelling. He proposed to hiscomrade to carry in while he cut some of the fael. Upoo the young man taking an armfull into the bouse avd returning, be found Summers npon the ground with bis head resting upon his band, and bis elbow supportiug the same from the ground. Upon being asked asto what was the matter, be remark: d, incoberently, “tbat ox bow,’’ He was carried into the bouse and soon expired. He bad been engaged in driving cattle during the day. aud may have been injured by a blow of some nature, but notbing could be discovered to account for the cause of his death.—[ Marysville Express, Tue Sarrretae Surpty.—The Newark Mercury says: Large quantities of nitrate of soda, or South American saltpetre, av it ie called, are obtained in Chili and Peru, and this may be easily converted into the parest of ealtpetre, as it was daring the Russian wat, wheo the markets of that country were supplied with saltpetre thas manufactured in this country, and sbipped to Russia by way of Hamburg. Saltpetre can also be obtained in the United States from the limestone caves that abound in Kentucky and otber gections, This was almost our only source of eopply doriog our last wer with Englaod. which cut us off from our dependence upon ber lodian possessions, Earth yielding 15 per cent. of nitre is said to be found near Nasbville, Tenn., in quantities sufficient to supply the entire country. An Exopeuext.—The wife of William Blackstone, of Portland, Oregon, eloped with a man in bisemploy, named Edward Moore, a short time since. The injured base band publishes a card, of a colamn io length in the Advertiser, in which he sets forth bis grievances, stating that bis wife took nearly all the household goes except the stove, aod but for its we ght would probably have taken that also. disconsolate husband endeavors to console bimeelf with the reflection that the said wife has been constant in her endeavors to “kick up a fuss.”’ NUMBER Cie dition of the Rebel Ariny. According to the statements of late Southera papers the rebel army ntithberr about 260,000 hen. Of these, some 80,000 are twelve months’ men whose term of enlistment will expire in the course of'a month or two, avd ateording to rebel authority, they refuse, almost toa ian, to re-enliat. The Richmond Bxaminer, of January 2, drawsa gloomy pictore of affairs in rebeldom, aod io regard to the condition of the army, eaysi The present condition of dur artiy ie a cause of severe and painful anxiety, Demoralization is creeping in, from tbe intane aud reckless neglect of the Government to sustain and to cultivate the spirit of out soldiery. There is too mach drunkenness among the officers on the Potomac, add too mueh vacant idling among the men. We are informed as a positive fact that in the major ity of the army on the Potomat, the practice of regimental drills bas fallen into complete disuse, * * * What can be predicted but utter demoraligation for an army whose condition js that of tens of thousands of men living in utter idleness, groveling in their tents, with no octupation bot what is afforded by the greasy pack of cards that is the inevitable inmate of every tent, or the yellow covered novel, whose wretched and perbaps filthy entertaintnent has more than once gone the rounds of the ag ay 3 e cannot shut our eyes to the fact, that the army is becoming a name of terror and dread to the minds of our citizens, The newspapers are still filled with advertisements of bonuses fur ‘substitutes,’ although the War Department has adopted a rule restricting the number of substitutions to one in each company. The rates paid for substitutes are enormous. We are informed that they average from $200 to $250; and we have been told of a recent instance where $1,500 was paid for the prompt procurement of a substitote to take the place of a private suddenly constrained to leave the army. Evidences stare us in the face of the unwillingness of men to accept the life of famine, dirt aod vacant idleness fh the army. Richmond is filled with soldiers who bave come out of the bospitale, or who have got here on rome pretense or other, applying for discharges and striving and wriggling in all sorts of ways to get oat of the army. It was but a few days ago that a soldier, discharged from one of the bospitals here, committed suicide rather than be constrained to return to the army. There is no unwillingness aniong our young men to serve thelr country. There are thousands who would willingly go with their lives on their slevees to battle with the enemy, and to attest a devoted and courageous patriotism, but who dread to betake themselves to the wretehed, half fed life of dirt, vacancy and idleness in campe. This is the restraint upon volunteering. * .* * © © Why was it that when oor roldicre were daily dying by hundreds, the Government did not show the common humanity of the small measures of instituting a medical commission to examibe the camps and if possible, check the progress and rayages of dieeage. The Richmond Examiner, of January 4th, referring to the army, save: Doomed to inaction, and rotting on straw we have lost more by disease than a dozen victories bave cost; and we have lost the national reputation we enjoyed for dash and elan, Unless there is a promise,fand one to be relied on, of a total change In thie policy of the great Canctator, we shall have no more volunteers after the expiration of the present term. f Accipexts In Sierra.—The La Porte Messenger of the 15th,’ gives accounts of three accidents which.occurred ia that vicinity last week: Jake Keifer,a German, while runing @ car io a mining tunnel at Second Ravine, had bis teeth knocked out and skal! fractared by the car bouncing from the track. He wilt recover, Joba Haas, coasting on snow shoes, struck ona fence, dislocating bis kuee, fracturing both bones of the leg and displacing the kneepau. This was at Newark. At Port Wine, on the 9th, a loaded car, running down an incline, struck Mr, Van Burea Wilson io the back, killing him almost instant, From THe Orner Sipe.—The Sonora en has a letter from an old resident of Tuolumpe county, now at Victoria, V. L, who conclades a letter about the Cariboo mines as follows: The placer itself is limited, pto: visions and other necessaries at outrageous prices; no new discoveries have been made since the last of July. August aod September are the only two which prospecting or work can be ‘and this season without result. M ie, that the whole affair is a speculation of traders, tavern-keepers and he through emition, expect to get labor; a new 58 and nothing more! ‘
