Mississippi, river and its surround. ings must be an interesting subject to you all. Was. it not along itsoeurse that our Lieutenant General made himself famous.l. - And not he stelae, truly— for many, many others, whoml leavelto history to mortal ize, made its region, their scene of glory.

Guerillas only are lett to occa sionally tiro into - steambbats and then rush back into the woods. l i nt the places on the Mississippi (" cities " they are flatteringly styled by the South, erners) that have falloff into our hands have booome curiously altered. Let me tell you something about them, commencing at Cairo, Illinois, whore the Lower Blissiasippl and the Ohio rivers meet.: Cairo Wlll, iR time, become a place of Latch im portanCe. ,At present it Is a distressingly vile hole: small, always muddy (because it is shaped like a „begin, and every rain hoods it); a series of board walks as a substitute for pavement aeries of straggling huts for houses, ands Crowd of straggling gentlemen in search of their fortune for inhabitants. Let me sail away from Cairo in a little steamboat which has been my home for more than %year. The weather is pleasant, the shy blue, and the water bubbles amiably away iron:l...our prow, so that if I were a German, I might Bit there and think of some mystic legend of the old Friderland ; as it is, I thought of Pongee's " Undines" Passing Colurn hus, the first port below Cairo (a distance of twenty miles), we continue rapidly dawn theiriver, our boat being the fastest stern-wheeler on the Mississippi. A change in the scenery is now perceptible. The shores consist of different growths of cotton wood, Which springs up on every sand bank that is formed by the constant change of channel in the Father of Waters. Away stretch these monotonous shdres all the way down to Natchez, where they begin to im prove, and the sugar-houses and pleasantly-located plantations greet the eye until MI arrive at New Orleans. Memphis, Tennessee, is the next tols.ce, a distance of 250 miles from Cairo. It may really be called a city, and a pretty one at that. Its buildings are handsome, its streets Wean, and its appearance flourishing. General Dana, Commanding the mill. Lary dietriet of West Mississippi, nee his headgear. ters here. General A. L. Cheltain, an able officer, 113 in command of the colored troops In Tennessee, and has done much to make the negroes efficient as soldiers (an easy task, fox : they are remarkably apt), and also to banish the feeling against them, which Meted 16 powerfully , at first. At Memphis there is Fort Pickering, a large workmuch too large, I may add on the authority of an able officer.

Ninety mires from Memphis is Helena, the next post, where, G-ea.* N. B. Buford commands. You remember him at•Gettyeburg, do you not 1 He did well there, and he Is doing well at Helena, where his rule Is imUd but:firm, and the place has much Improved under hie regulations. Hero, as at nearly every point on the river, are colored troops. In deed, I cannot think I am wrong when I say the Miesikippr hi guarded admirably by them. Under proper ofileest, and, Indeed, even under incompe tents, they fight with a bravery and success which can leave no doubt of their efficiency. Let mt.. re - fer. you to thShattles before Nashville, where their valor impressed thit most stubborn disbeliever, and where, when t i ke black man and the white man gave up their llveo side by aide, the stretoher-bearers made 110 1118titotion, taking the negro as they would a vrhleb,knowing they were both brave soi -1 diere.

A party of men in the vicinity were seen running from the spot, and were fired upon by Col Johnson's son -In-law, but the murderers all escaped, and none, at last accounts, hattbeen captured. It is alleged that Col. Johnson, having teen instrumen tal in levying a greater number of conscripts for•his district than he should have done, he was thus sum marily dealt with.

The schooner Nary Miller, Captain G. X. Day ton, well and favorably known in Philadelphia as the Captain of the Highlander, went into Hatteras Inlet, on the etli instant.

Oi/ANGE OD OOMMAEDBRB Brigadier General George F. Shepley has been re moved by General Ord, and Brigadier General Gor don placed in his position. This gives great satis. faction to the friends of civil law, to whish Shepley has been bitterly opposed. A. mass meeting of citi zens will be held this evening to give expression to their opinion - In relation to civil law. His Brett• lousy Governor F. H. Plerpont will preside. The Governor arrived in Norfolk on Thursday evening last, and is busy with thd details necessary to a Um rough organization of the civil government. COTTON S.PBOULATOBE3 A singular circumstance connected with General Butler's cotton speculation has oome to light. It seems that the, chief of General Shoploy's staff, G. ILlJohnston, resigned several months since to enter, as Butler's chief agent, into the business of buying cotton from the rebels in North Carolina. He remand* * at this long enough to make over two hundred and fifty thousand dollars as his share, which he deposited in the First National Bank of Norfolk. A few days ago the military commission Instituted by General Grant to investigate the pro. teedings of General Butler relatlife to cotton, got wind of Mr. Tchnston. He heard that they would call, upon him soon, but not intending to be outdone by them do drew all his money from the bank and decamped in the Baltimore boat. They telegraphed to the authorities at Baltimore to arrest and sand him back to Noifolk, but the shrewd Johnston did ,not go on the boat farther than Fortress Monroe, where he took the Washington boat, and landed at Annapolis. No one knows his whereabouts, although he Is anxiodsly waited here. The commission has proven that Butler received two-fifthsof all cotton brought here, his brother-in-law ono -fifth, and middle-men, of which Johnston was one, two-fifths, the Government getting but one-half of that which was rightfully dud it. Yon , may expect even more astounding revelations than these. THE LATE MTIRDICE The murder of Mr. Boykin, to which I referred at length in my last letter, is still involved in mys• tery. No one knows anything about it, and despite the energies of the Oovernment detectives there has not been as yet the slightest trace by which any identification of the assassin may be found. A large reward has been offered by the citizens of Norfolk, which at the present writing amounts to nearly one thousand dollars. A subscription list has also been started for the benefit of the widow and children of the murdered man.

To the Editor of The Press: SIR : I propose that whenever and wherever 6116 oil is stored In any quantity the place of storage Shall be an excavation of sufficient capacity to hold the liquid and prevent It flowing over adjacent ground in case of fire. The recent report, in some or our scientific jour.. nals, of a ooal•oll Ora lo a drnggistra= cellar having been almost instantaneously subdued by proper (although in that ease accidental) chemical agents, suggests( the necessity of having such MOWS' at hand wherever eoal oil is stored. In France large flatbottomed Iron boaiSr or tasks have been introduoed upon the rivers to. hold lir flammable lignlds ; but should the contents take lire, the intense heat developed will doubtlest warjo and burst the aides of the venal, and suffer the burning fluid to spread over the Surface of the valor. G. j} Gaaittarrovrw, leebriLiM 11,1865. The correspondent of the London News Says : ' , Monsieur J. Bonifsoo, whose literary name X. B.

The 6.20 loan advanced yesterday selling at 110 K. State and City loans were unchanged.. Company bonds were moderately active at shont lest prices. tThe marked feature of the share list was the advance in Reading, which opened at about 543,” and sold up steadily bi 56X, at which it closed. Camden and Amboy sold at 145, a fruitier advance of 4 ; Borth Penn sylvania Railroad sold at 27,t.i. and Itinehill at 56% Bank stocks were Quiet, and there was little said in canal or cord stock a The oils were more active, the opening of the new public stock exchange (open board.) giving a new impetus to the buying and. selling of this description of stocks. Better Pekces in many instances were obtainedat the public board than at the regular board.
