And scarce as good as ours at Castle Thunder.

To wing'thy muse in spite of homely diet;
It may have been the dash of Erie's foam,

'Twr.s something?for thy witty rhymes assure ns
That, thou didst live no whit too near Arotnrus.
But knowing, as'wc do, that thou art free,
We'll meet ihe Yankees with a heavy wager
That they were fleeced when we exchanged for the<

However Prentice rate Ihec in his Journal,
Wthold thee, Asa, worth at least a Colonel.
But curb the jest, while fortune deigns to smile,
And lei our musing fancy follow rather
The longing for the fragrant flowery aisles ;
Where bends the yearning father,
Eager to press.. with fatherly embraces,
The babes avho dream, perhaps, of his caresses.
An ! he hr.s sterner trials yet to bravo
Than vpas his lot within the moated prison.
To weap?if that were all?above the grave
Of her whose life has risen
Unto a climax, and has reached supernal

liar regular day. She proceeded on her course j

\ The Pkosi'kct of a General Battle.?
Your readers need not expect a general, battle
for several days, and perhaps weeks to come:
The enemy is still f;tr in tlio rear, and it 'will
tike him a Jong time to mass his strength north
f Chattanooga. There will, be .no battle dpon
this side.* The naviire"of thife^oonhtry doeS'ndt"
admit of (leneral Sherman following Ilood.?
lie has no supplies to make such, a move, and
no tran>p'>rtion. lie will, therefore, in his re
treat, he obliged to follow the railroad, and to
repair it as he goes. This will allow \ to <>porate
upon the N.ish\i!!e and Chattanooga
ih'.*id, with our whole army. including General
l-'orrest, who is known to he in a position to
unite his three with General Hood. We will
i have lime amply sidlicient to rest our troops,
; to take position, to entrench, and then fall upon
the. enemy as they descend, wearv, from the
