The white tape marks the line of excavation, the dark lanterns are “faced to the rear.’’ the muskets are carefully laia aside; the shovels are in hand, and each man silently . commences to dig. Nota word ie spoken; i not one spade clicks against another; each man first digs a hole large enough to cover himself; he then turns and digs to his right hand neighbor; then the ditch deepens and widens, and the parapet rises, Yet all is silent; the relief comes and the weary oner retire; the words and jests of the enemy are often plainly beard, while no noiee from our men disturbs the stillness, save the dull rattle of the earth as each epadeful is thrown to the top. At daylight, a long line of earthwortbe, affording complete protection to our men, greets the astonished eyes of our enemy, while the sbarpshooter’s bullets greet their ears. Frequently this work is done in open daylight, the sharpshooters and pickets keeping the enemy from annoying our men, TENNESSEE.—A recent writer, who has traveled through mach of Tennessee, says: “Tn the rural districts, Gov.

Nevada, May lst, 1802, our old California friend, Bailie Peyton, Ex-Gov. Campbell, Hon. W. B. Stokes,Hon. W. H. Polk and others, the measures taken by Gov. Johnson will result ina a return on the part of the people to their alThe secession element in Nashville is rapidly subsiding, and its violence heretofore may be accounted for by the fact that the promise of big pecuniary profite from the establishment of an extensive depot for the Confederate army dazzled the vision of the people aad lured them from the path of duty, and Nashville ie giadually eettling into a strong Union city. In the town of Shelby, which is the third in business and fourth in population in Tennessee, two-thirds of the people have been for the Union throughout all the dark and stormy days of the past year.” ARKANSAS.—A correspondent. of the Missouri Republican, who traveled with the Union army io Arkansas, writing from Salem, eays: Very few incidents occurred on the way, the people generally remaining quietly at home, and many of them showing signs of rejoicing at the deliverance they have experienced from rebel misrule and tyranny. Their condact in this respect is in marked contrast with that of the people of south. west Missouri, and there is evidently a better feeling towards the old Government of the k'ederal Union in Arkanevs than among the rebel portions of Missouri. Everywhere the opinion is prevalent that the Southern Confederacy is about to collapse and go under—many Secessionists themselves confeesing the same thing. All! at once, their conduct has become much more respectful towards Union men, and many seem anxious to renew old friendships, where, for months, there has been bitter alienation. Tae Scorpiox,.—Leslie’s Illustrated for May 24th bas an eloquent cartoon, It is a scorpion, whose bead isa cotton bale, and and whose tale isa flambeau. It is diving farther into the South; the Massachusetts men with bayonet io rest are after in hot haste. They areclosing in upon it and the tail begins to curl ite back, and the flambeau is approaching tbe cotton, while beneath it is written: The scorpion is one of the most stupid as well as one of the most venemous of insects, It cairies ite sting in ite tail—never biting, as is eapposed, by the vulgar. When ‘corit is usually etings itself to death—striking ite a sting into ite own head, which is the softest, and consequently the most vulnerable part of its body.—[{Cbild’s Book of Natural History, Tur OLp CompLarnt.—‘Custom House”’ appears to be a chronic disease in our political affairs, We all know what it was in days of yore, and loud complaints are now being made that the Custom House disease conspicuously appears to influence the action of the nvention on the 17th.

A gentleman, of Alabama, who bas long held a high position there, and who wasone of the Commissioners from that State to Texas, after the Secession of the former, writes a letter to a friend im Maripora county, in this State, from which the Gazette makes the following extract: T bad a long conversion with Yancey a few days ago about our prospects in ko. rope. He says that no European power will interfere to puta stop to the war as longas they think that the Confederate States will be able to maintain their independence; that although there may be much distress for want of cotton, that it would be cheaper to relieve the distress than to incur the expenses of the war that would result from their interference. He says that France and England are determined that the Union shall never be restored, but would prefer seeing the present war last as long as poeeible; because the longer the war continues and the more bitter the feelings engendered by it, the stronger will be the position of monarchy in Europe. He says that democracy has been growing in Europe ever since the formation of the United States Government; and had the Government been controlled by Beacon and justice, instead of fanaticism, in twenty years there would have been a complete revolution in Europe, and every monarchy overturned, with the exception of Russia. But that the present war bas nearly eradicated the democratic party in Europe, and monarchy is etronger now than it bas been for fifty years, If this war should continue a few years longer, the man who rhould advocate a Republic in Europe, would be deemed Insane. He says that they think that if they were to interfere and stop the war, it might be argued thatforeign interference broke up the Government, which otherwiee would have maintained itself : bat let it fall to pieces through its own rottenness, and movarchy is established for centuries to come. He tells me that he spoke with many statesmen in Europe who argued that a republican government could not succeed in either the Northern or Southern States, after the war, on account of the military spirit that would prevail, and the concentration of capital, which is always one of the results of war. A distinguished statesman in France argues that the United States Government bad been growing too powerful for the safety of other Governments, and that had not the present division taken place, European powers would have tried to curb her growth, for fear of her interference in European politics; but that now she was divided, she was no longer to be feared. But that it would be for England and France to eee that rhe was notre-united. I have not time to write furtber but will embrace the first oppartunity of writing again. Sewarp's Mexican Circu.ar my Evrore. —We published, a few days ago, the circular of Secretary Seward, sent to our foreign ministers, aguinst the establishent of a monarchy in Mexico, etc. This circular was addressed to all European Governments, and was first given to the public through the French papers. A Paris correspondent Bays: The appearance of the diplomatic circular written by Mr. Seward, under date of March 3d, bas produced a vivid sensation in Europe. This important ducument has of couree been translated into the various Janguages of the continent, and republiebed by all the infinential journals. There appears to be but one opinion on the eubject—viz: that it is the settled purpose of the United States to oppose the attempts of European powers to substitute a monarcbial for the republican form of government in Mexico, as well as the permanent occupation by foreign troops which such a change of regime would necessarily vi a It is remarked that the perfect courtasy of the language employed by the Secretary of State, dues not revent him from unequivocally manifestng the dissatisfaction of the United States at the events which bave already resulted from the European expedition to the Gulf. ee eee Jopiciovs pur Lingrat Hanoino,—For an . old man, General Scott’s head is wonderfully sound on the main questions. He Bays; “Davia will not be caught. He will probably escape through Texas into Mexico. To the more prominent traitors who may be taken. I would mete out a eyetem of judicious but liberal hanging.” A Destnapie Corrs To Jomw.—A New Orleans paper of March 29th, states thata company of 103 young girls, armed and equipped for the war, were to embark from that place. That would be a glorious company to command. Who would object to drilling them?
