"The times have been, ‘That when the brains were out the man would die, Ana there an end; but now, they rise again, With twenty mortal murders on.thelr crowns, And push us from our stools ”” So with the superstitions of sailors and sol- tiers. They have more lives than —, a The brains have been knocked out Colonel Russell falls dead in the cannonade ‘one many times, but here it comes Boa > ay th raters, pagent i ; @ sol was fhe wind of the balls. Nom sequitur, says the nD. @ wind of a cannon ball never hurts any- body, for many reasons, the first of which that there is no such a neyo The air displaced by the ball closes instantly behind it, but has no lateral effect. This is proved in various ways, but is placed beyond cavil or question by the common oc- currences in every severe cannonade. For instanoe, the dispatch just received from Fort Donelson says “a shot struck the Ppilot-house of the St. Louis, passi h it, between the pilot's legs, without injuring him.’ Wh: did not the wind of that ball at least bark shins? The fact is that military abounds in eases which prove that cannon balls pass in gracing contact with all of man’s body and never do the slightest harm, except on the parts actually struck. They have smashed clean through hats and helmets, razing the hair; they have cut off ears close to the skull, arms close to the side, one thigh close to the other, and yet the adjacent parts are left as sound as ever. An instance is given of a heavy shot striking a rank of marching men in the flank, takin; off the right leg of the first, of the third, an: of the afth man, of course between the legs of the others, and yet the left legs of the wounded men were uninjured, and the other men knew nothing abeut it. According to the wind theory, their legs should have been bad- ly injured. But how account for the death of men in ac- tion whose skins are unbroken, save by the wind theory? Easily, as thus: The vital internal organs Goat, as it were, in a yielding medium. Press your hand into the pit of a man’s stomach slowty, and you may bag orp the organ with- out any pain or injury; but plant a swift blow there with your fi ind you double the man up with pain; perhaps kill him ee but there will not be the slightest outward mark. Hence, in boxing, a blow belew the belt is in- deed foul Press hard upon a man’s left side, and the elasticity of the ribs, aided by the elastic car- tilages at each end, allows t depression to be made—consequently the heart and lungs to be yay aside; and yet every thing comes back to its place witheut pain or injury; but a swift blow over the same part witha club, ora fall from a house upon a hard substance, may fracture the ribs, drive the sharp, broken oints through the membranes, or even para- yee the heart and kill the man outright, without leaving a blemish on the skin. Standing once in the bow of a vessel, as she bore down upon a hostile battery, my eyes caught the first flash of a cannon, and quicker than one could wink twice the ball came crashing through the bulwarks, and smote down a comrade, before my ear caught the re- port, which he, alas! was too far gone to hear. Sani ea shot struck — full upon the 5; but being partly spent in a the wood, its foree was further bro! 4 bocy, and it fell to the deck with him. No blood was drawn, but the internal parts were so smashed that he was hardly got down the cockpit alive. Soldiers and sailors have other superstitions about spent balls. The old soldier loves to re- tail them to the recruit, upon whom he looks down as sophomores do upon freshmen, or as our regular officers do upon volinteers, and with as little reason, few of them ever having seen such herd fighting, for the Mexigan war was but @ sort of dress Spe inst a poor, weak enemy, in the wi of which there was less blood shed than in a Napoleonic skirmish The old soldier, I say, will tell you of the greenhorn, who, seeing a spent ball just moving on the ground, tried to stop it with his foot, but had it cut clean off, instanter. The fact 18, 8 cannon ball, partly spent, ricochets and rolls with just the same force as it bad been rolled by 2 man’s hand, no more. The force depends upon its weight and velocity of course. Mortal wounds, however, without bloodshed or breach of the skin, are not commonly made by spent balls, but those having great velocity, and according to my theory they should be more frequent by smooth bore than by rifled cannon. The balls rotate swiftly on the axis as fly, and in directions according to the force acting upon them as they leave the 5 Now take a 32-pound shot and hold it before &@ man’s thigh, on the outside, or before his ribs, in such wise that —— push it forward, and he stands firm, the ii will pass, by rea- son of his flesh yielding, one inch ; that is, b being pressed inwards one inch.

It seems that in February, 1860, Miss Catharine Brown, the daughter of a well-known d: it, was united to St. George Henry Hopkins, of Winchester, Va. The match was an uncongenial one, and the petitioner alleges that Hopkins treated her with marked neglect, indifference and cruelty. He finally forsook her in February last, and has since. it is believed, made allegiance to the Confederate Government. nainl: fora as to the discloyalty of Hopkins, by Chief L. C. Upon the ground, , Of his disloyalty, the petitioner asks ll and final divorce. She is corroborated Baker, of the jovernment Detective Police. The tion of Mrs. Hopkins is explicit as to details, and narrates many incompatibilities of disposit ion and sentiment. She says, for example, that ‘“‘on the 20th of December, 1860, we had adiscussion upon the speech of Thos. R. Cobb, of Ga. his secession views with such violence as to cause me great faintness and illness.

Mr Gregg re- cently arrived in this country, and having be- stowed much’thought for many years upon the subject of confating Catholicism, has held con- troversies from time to time with the clergy of that creed. His lectures since coming here have been mainly on the same subject, and Bishop , not wishing {ll-teeling engendered, espe- cially at this moment when both Catholics and Protestants are fighting side by side for the Union bas ordered a cessation of his course.

CAino, April 2.—A terrible storm, amounting to a tornado, occurred here this morning, which untoofed the St. Charles Hotel and demolished several rows of empty barracks.

Sr. Lovis, April 3.—A letter from Fort Union, New Mexico, dated March 18, says reinforce- ments have arrived there, and our force is now sufficient to defead that depot. At the latest ad- vices Colenel Canby was still shut up at Fort Craig, two hundred and fifty miles south of Fort Union, and that the Texans, 2.400 strong, were at Alboquerque, with twenty pieces of artillery, ~— about half way between Forts Union and Craig. Other accounts say that 1,800 Texans were ad- vancing on Fort Union. The Texans held Santa Fe, and had organized a provisional government, Gen Pebham being Governor. If a forward movement can be made without jeopardizing Fort Union, an effort will be made to relieve Colonel Canby, and reclaim Santa Fe and Albuquerque. it was reported that Colonel Canby had cap- tured a train of sixty wagons and 400 Texans. Communication between Santa Fe and Fort Union was cut off, but an advance would be made about the 224 cg the troops at Port Union, assisted by two small batteries, when it was expected com- munication with Fort Craig would be restored.
