Lebanon Bora' -se. we had a good many bo gas war deSpatehda during the past week, all of which were manufac tured by the administration at Washington' to influence the corn ing elections. We shall no doubt continue to have them thick and fast for the next two or three weeks. The reported capture of Mobile -is without the slightest foundation oftruth, and so is the reported capture' of Early, in the Shenandoah. Valley. We caution our readers to be guarded against deception in regard, to anything that may aPtlehr from now to the election in relation to matters eon , nedted with ;our military opera tions.
