JTearal, and other Democratic papers, .in favor of still prosecuting the war ; the evident dis pondence manifested by Southern pa pers, and more than all, the great de cline in the premium on Gold, gives Union-men cause to expect favorable results during the Spring Campaign. It is not thought probable that there 'will be any battle soon at Vicksburg. It is probable the intention is to cut th that tplace, and compel them to surrender without a battle. The rebels, no doubt, havc sent a portion of their army from Fredericks burg to East Tennessee and Kentucky, .on account of. the scarcity of provis ions. Fears were entertained- that Kentucky was to be overrun, and that Lexington, Louisvilie and Cincinnati might soon be in danger. It -was thought their object wa3 to detract Federal troops "away from Vicksburg, Murfresborough and the Potomac But it now appears their object was only to make a raid for provisions.

I m reply to our remark that'Kansai will furnish enough lnen to make one or more com panies of the 'Nebraska Cavalry, says that if she doe so, it will only b? paying back a tithe of the men that Nebraska has furnished for Kansas repiments- Let's see. A tithe is the tenth part.- Two companies contain, about two hun dred men.' Well, 2,000 men from Ne braska in Kansas regiments, is J doing r;ght well. This is equal to two regi ments. We should like -to 'know --what two regiments they are. Mr. Advertis er, "arenVyou cassia' nor nothin ?' White Cloud Chief. . y Not much Brother Miller. If you will read our article you will find you mis quoted us. We said; '.. .. . j , ' "If the Nebraska 2d Caralry should get 20 or 30 men from Kansas, it will not be paing us back a tithe 'of the num ber of Nebraskians who enlisted in Kan sas Regiments. Ten times 20 are 200. -If -two hun dred is an exageration, it at least comes as near the truth as you da when you rjeak of two companies from Kansas in the Nebraska Cavalry. . . . - -'. We have not the means of ascertain ing the number of citizens-frciniNebras-ka in -Kansas - Regiments. ,We know, however, that in the Kansas 2(,Co.'G,' Captain Matthew, was enlisted at Brown ville, and a majority , were -citizens of Nemaha, Richarscn and !

THE KtW MINES. - ' """ " ' Already ' the . tide rof: emigration "has commenced to the-' new' gold rnines,- Beaver Ileiid is the J.uvor?te locality wi,th jhe people of Colorado, and with all. per jcns .aloug, the Overland lail-route. , -I hive tn'.kel with a number of returned .airee as to the'ex tho new mining localities of Oregon, Waihington, and Dacota is to follow the Toute'estubiished, and now traveled by the Overland-Stage Line,1 to Bridger, or Salt Lake; from thence. North to the', mines. The old route by Laramie, and the Sweet- Water, has been abandoned by the mail, line on account of the In dians. It is not considered safe to go the old route. Trqops will, doubt!es?,.o.nly be. stationed along the present route of the-. -Overland Stage Line,- who will afford ample and undoubted protection to em grants. Therefore" I would "advise all persons " going to the new mines to tatD the Cherokee Trail, being the safest and lest, and free from In'Jian troubles. , ' . INDIAN THErT. .

'comprehend ed, the beauty and benefits of creating -a military necessity." They .did not kill any' one. ' Capt.

A fierce conilict ensued,' in. which. .the Lieutenant was. severely wounded in the left arm, and. the Indian - killed. I Another com mand was despatched to the-battle ground immediately; coming "upon the'-enemy . forty-eight, hours subsequent to the en gagement, he.was "skclped." ' T STORMS Or WIND AND SNOW. . " Last of Feb.' we had a series of the most terrific storms of now and wind The. reinforcements ent to "fight Indi ans", at this place came' rear beiDg all lost in the storm of the 2Sth. Two men were frozen to death, dying in a .few minutes' .after '.having been brought into the fort, and about thirty ladly"used ip" ly. "Jack -Frost.'' :This detatchment "was commanded by Cel.

The storm may now sweep otfer their lonely graves, but their quiet ; slumbers cannot.be disturbed. They, "sleep that sleep which know no waking" until the dawning of the great resurrection morn, when the mountains, as well as, .the sea shall give up their dead. It is sad to die at home surround ed by loving friends and kindred, but oh, how sad io be thus snatched from earth to eternity ! but after life's last struggle, let u indulje the hope,' that they are where storms rage not, where death and pain ate never felt !" Though their bod ies are laid under the ground far from homey their spirits,' it is fondly hoped, are basking in the sunshine . of Heaven ! Their remains rest in one coffin and one grave at the foot of the Roj.ky Mount ains.'

Her entire bow was ?hot away, causing her to take water "O rapidly ihat she sunk immediately, turn ing a con;plete somersault as she went down. All the crew except, one escaped in small boats. The Switzerland was more fortunate, tut was finally disabled by. a 6i-pound ball penetrating her steam drum. . She floated down below the city, the batteries 'still keeping up firej strik ing hr repeatedly.
