We have some late and trustworthy Ix

I
uo news Heretofore published, of a person- ct
il difficulty having occurred between Major tl
Jenerals Hunter aDd Foster. The quarrel a
elated to precedence in rank, and concluIccJ
by General Foster informing General hi
Junter that sooner than fight under bin), a?
ie would fight against Itiffi; and suiting o!
he action with the word, General F. dealt m
i blow in the face of General JJ. Gene- ai
al JI. was not slow to assert h's bel- jr
gercnt rights, and replied by str king u
Jeneral F. on the head with a billet wood p
>f drawing blood propusely. Before hos'.ili u
les could bo resumed tlig combatants were u
eperated. Foster, after ordering the do ij
tarkation of his division on St. Helena |i
sland, left for Washington to have hie ^
'osirion defined. Meanwhile it is cttr-j' b

vby they connot be used for investment

being in the United Kingdom,
wund LliaL tlie Aiimiral was being directed^

when in the neighborhood of Saannah,
was cm pi tired by a Federal cruiser,
,nd Kdward McDonald, the plaintiff, anongst
others, was caj4urod and conveyed
o New York. For the owners, it was
onlendtd that they had no previcus

f blockade, and that they had wilfully
iolated 110 contract. Ultimately, after a

all told, the force will number three millions.
The enrollment is to bo mailp by ofllccifi

Heavy penalties are imposed for all resistance

of the bill bristly with provisions ensuring

it,continues, has put every dollar and every
drop of blood in its limits at the d'uposal
of J?tF. Davis ; if we are not prepared to

A MOMENT OF HORROR*
Wo are indebted to the Mobile Register
for the following:
For. twenty-thrco years, olcj Juke Willnrd
has cultiv.atfcd the soil of Baldwin courj*
ty, and drawn thoiqfrotn a support for self
and wife. He is childless. Not long ago
Juke left the bouse in reared of a missing
tow. II18 route led him through'an ord
worn out patch of clay land, of about six
aores in exi*."', ? the ccnter of which was
9 well, twppty fifb or thirty feet deep, that
at some tiroo, probably, I?a<l furnished the
inmates of ft dilapidated hoUBe near by
with water. Iu passit.g by this spot an
ill wind lifted Jake's "tile" frgm bis bead,
and maliciously wafted it to thp edge of
the well and in it tumbled.
Now Jake had always practiced the. virtue
of econqmy, and he immediately 8&t
about recovering t,l,e lost hat Uo ran to
the well, and finding it was dry at the bottom,
be uncoiled the rope which he had
j brought for the purposo of capturing the
I truant co\vt and after &evgr>?l attembta to
? I
! catch the hat with a noose, he concluded
' to save tiino by going down into the well
( himself. To accomplish this, he ronde fast
j one ^nd.of tlie rope !o a stump hard by,
j and was quickly p,n his yny down the
I well
! I is a f.ie!, of which Juke wn? no le?s
j oblivious than the reader thereof, that Ned
j Wells \\n$ in the dilapidated building
' aforesaid, and that ai,i old blind horse, with
J a bell on his neck, w\.o bad been turned
| out to die, was lazily crazing within a short
distance ol the well.
I The devil himself or $91^0 other wicked
j spirit put it into Ned's cranium to have ft
! little fun ; fco ho quhtly slipped up to the
1 horsp, and unbuckling the bell straps apj
proachod with slow measured '.'ting-ft-ling"
j the edge of the well.
t "(ji ? d dang that old blind horse 1" said
J Jalce, "lie's a comiu' this wauy^re, and
j ain't got no more sense lhan to fall in here.
I Whoa, Ball!' "
1 liuj. the continued apprpach of thp 't'"ga-ling"
?aid just as plainly as words that
' Ball would't ;,ivJioa." Besides Jak? w??
i at the bottom, resting, before trying to
i "shin'' it up the rope.
"Great Jerusalem!' said he, "the old
' cuss will be a top of me before I can soy i
' Jaek Robinson. Whoa! G?d dang you,
'' whoa!
Just then, Neil drew up to the edge of
! the well, and with his foot kicked cj little
, dirt, i to it.
"Oh ! Lord I'exc'aimed Jit^e, falling upi
on his kriee3 at the bottom, "I'm gone now
, whoa! Now I lay me down to sleep?

wasn't up to the top of it in short order;
