nee »geay_on the other. The first fight Jof any ati ‘State, of Uruguay, January 22d, wherein tha Robert E, Lee; once Slaktde mtd . way to Europe, and is bound for New York . AGRICULTURAL ProspeeTs;—The late . rains have “given vegetation of all kinds a new start and the beneficial influénee seems’ to have been felt throughout the State. Not only lave schon fields been benefited, polo recast sina iaihew: ers will be sufficient té give grain a good start before the ground dries again. We should judge that large crops have been put in this season than ever before, and the prospect of plenteous harvests. consequent low prices during the next year ts excellent. The . ptime of the year has been peculiarly favorable for the cultivation of moun. thin lands, ond in many sections of the State the foot-hills have been fallowed and seeded . to their sdmmits. In this county a large amount of new land has been broken up and the grain crop will be larger than, ever before, while the hay produced will be enough to meet.the home demand. The last rainy weather is worth millione of dollars to the ““pédple of this Stafe. © : It is true that great dutbaigd bes been done peaches,and other fruit treea by the froste in the mountains, but it is probable that the Product in the valleys will be larger than ever before, while the abundance of grapes, apples and such fruits as bloom late will fully compensate fer the damage done the earlier Slooms. Should not another drop of rain fall, the people of the State can rest assured that the products of the earth will bo abundant this season; bat then there are indications that we will be favored with more rain. We have moist southerly winds . . and at times the watery'clouds seem to be ‘etmost ready’ to shed their rain, giving evidence that the dry season has not yet come. More Crries.Occuriep.—We have news of fhe occupation by the Union armies of Lynohburg, Virginia, and Montgomery and Selma, Alabama. Lynchburg, the principal city ia theinterior of Virginia, ‘is situated on the James river, and in 1856 contain. . ~ ed 10,000 inhabitants, It ig connected with Richmond by the James River Canal, and with Petersburg by the South Side Railroad. A railroad also extends to the Tennessee line “and there eonaects with the railroad system of that State. These lines of trade give the city great advantages, while the river affords immense water power. Montgomery was before the war one of the most flourishing Cities of the South-west. It is built upon'a high bluff, upon the left bank of the Alabama river, 340 above Mobile, and at the "head of navigation. The city is located in the vicinity of.one of the most productive cotton regions'in the State, and few cities are soamply provided with means of communication by river and railroad. It was the first capital of the Confederacy. Selma ‘fe an impertant point on the Alabama and paoing home. es Rellzoad, seventy miles from ‘Swan IN do @ Amnarca.—A warls vow ,going-on in South America between Brazil ou-the-one part, and the Republic of Pureonsequence took place at Paisandu, in the _Braxilians were victorious. Bat though Brazil is @ very large countty;: “containing 6,000,000. inhabitants, while. Paraguay ‘is . end contains but 400,000, itis said the caning is Tei prepared for war than the. Empire. The standing army of Brazil is Short of 25,000 men. Paraguay can call out , and has slready sent a force toinvade ee territory of Brazil, contigous ‘to her “own: ‘The war appears to be for possession “@Btbe mouths ofthe Paraguay and Urugaay, and can hardly fail to involve the Argéatine .

We have no doubt that some of the Jone. on are nasi mageuandam . where © he will @mbark. What a contrast he will see between the prosperous and hap» py condition of the North and the desolated homes and the starvation which he has been instrumental-in bringing upon his own State and the entire South: He leaves his country with the brand of a Judas upon him, and if his manhood is wot entirélyyoue-he ‘will be driven, by 1 remorse to follow the — of the traitor disciple. “He ‘will go.ab to be'‘tidiiged ‘by the “Johnny Bulls” and the “Johnny Crapeaus” of England and Franee, and it is hardly probable that he will ever again set-foot upon the territory: of the nation. whose: fing he attempted to dishonor. Though an able General, he wasa traitor to his country, andin the future Arnold and Lee will be associated on the pages of American history.: It id well that he has ‘sought a home beyond . the limita of the United States. te cecpceeta tates der: REBEL OrFicers Ca ars Ra & prise the General-in-Chief, three Lieutenant: Generals, seventy Major Generals, sixty-one Brigadier Generals. Among them are Anderson, Echols, Ewell (already prisoners, ) Finnegan, Heath, , Bushrod Johnson, Kershaw; ‘Longstreet, Mahone, McCauseland, Moseby and Ould. “The exchange. commissioners were Pemberton, Picket, Rosser, Sorrel and H. A. Wise. The number of men actually surrendered by Lee is from. twenty to twenty-two thousand. Within the past two weeks. over 20,000 prisoners have been sent away. from City Point. A large number is still there. . AN ABOLITIONIST.—The Democratic Press, ina recent leader, states that the new American flag has been placed above that.office. In speaking of the stars and stripes, Beriah says: ‘We veuerate it as a relic of past unity, glory and prosperity, ‘and earnestly vey. for the time when it agploIn triumph shall oo O'or the land of the free and the home of the brave. Three months ago the Press would-have considered such a seatiment abolitionism in. its most radical form. The idea of praying’ that America may become the “land of the free.” Berioh, that’s unconstitutional. EASTERN News.—It is reported that Johnson has surrendered his army upon the same terms as Lee, and that Kirby Smith is Texas. The Herald says that prominent rebels are soon expected tn Washington on busingss connected with: restoration. The Richmond Whig of: Monday says whatever may be the fate of the Constita. tional Amendment, it is certain a the: sun} rises that “slavery in Virginia is déaa”™’ Amelia county is full of scasionlaae soldiers A Rumok.—A man a just i in from Walker river, saya the Enterprise, whose name we .did not learn, stated onthe streets in Virginia city thattwo white men and one woman -were murdered a few days since on a ranch near Walker river, .
