At the time of the birth of Mr. Melville, his father owned a large number of fine horses, and as soon as his son's perceptions were sufficiently formed to enatle him to distinguish objects, he manifested an inherent loye and ad- miration for the noblest of animals—the horse.

In addition to Mr. Melville's superb heraeman- ship, he stands unrivalled in athletic and gym- pastic exercises. With his accomplished sons, who inherit the talent and daring of their father, he gives a beautiful illustration of cla: Froupings, graceful poses, and splendid tableaux, is success in this as in other branches of his spe: cialty is beyond comparison, and defies rivalry or imitation. 4s = No other artiste ever acquired such a proficiency in these characteristic displays.

BALTInoRE, Noy. »7.-The Annapolis cor- respondent of the Baltimore American tele- graphs this evening as follows: The steamer Hiram Livingstone and Wey- bosset have arrived with twelve hundred and forty-six paroled prisoners from Sayan- nah. The captain of the Hiram Livingstone re- ports that when he sailed on the 25th, the ex- change of prisoners ceased, Sherman having cut off the railroad leading to Sayannah, and had, it was thought, reached all the remainder of our men, as he was only about six hours march trom the stockades when the men who arrived at the Hiram Livingstone left there, though an effort was being made by the rebels to send our men to Florida. THE WAR IN TENNESSEE. Massing of Troops in Hood’s Front—Retr: grade Movement by the Enemy Antici- pated—Deaths by Violence at Nashville. NASHVILLE, Noy. 26.—Hood’s army, num- bering, prebably, forty thousand men, have been for several days fast concentrating south ot Columbia, Tennessee. Our forces, mean- time, haye evacuated Pulaski, Huntsville, and Decatur, which places are in rebel hands. In Hood’s front, near and about Columbia, are the Federal forces commanded by General Thomas. On the 2ith instant some severe skirmishing occurred, resulting in @ loss to the Federals of Torty-four killed and wounded. The rebel loss isestimated at two hundred and sixty-four; among the killed was one colonel. Large bodies of troops are being massed in Hood’s front. Some heavy fighting may be expecte din a few days. Communication by telegraph to Columbia has been interrupted since yesterday. Rumors were circulated of fighting yesterday, but no official advices of an engagement have been received. Hood’s demonstration on Tennessee has thus far been fruitless. A retrograde movement is confidently predicted by those who are well informed in army matters. Z Nashyiile is filled with thieves and murder- ers. About twenty deaths by violence have occurred within the last few days. A steady rain bas been fallingall day. The river is iwelve feet, and rising. THE ST. ALBANS KAIDERS. Important Proceedings—What has lately Transpired. Toronto, CO. W., Nov. 26.—The application of the St. Albans raiders to the Canadian Goy- ernment, to dispatch a messenger to Rich- mond to obtain evidence alleged to be material to their defence, has been rejected. It is un- derstood the Government considered the raid- ers to be undergoing examination upon eharges making them amenable to the extradition trea- ty, and that evidence procured at Richmond, while it might be very material if rebels were before the United States courts, is of little con. sequence at this stage of the proceedings. it has transpired that cannon and war ma- terial have been transhipped from Sarnia on a tug boat bound for Lexington, in the State of Michigan. It is thought probable that the Georgian took cannonon board when proceed- ing in the direction of Collingwood. FROM THE SOUTHWEST. Movements of Hood’s Army—Sharp Skir- mishing with our Forces. New York, Nov. 28.—A special dispatch to the Herald says: “NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 27,-10.20 Pp. m.— There has been smart skirmishing between Pulaski and Columbia tor some days.

Rumors preyail here, which, if verified, would be contraband that Hood's army was marchingon Wednesday against Pulaski. His force is said to consist of 30,000 men, one-third cavalry; and ten batteries of artillery, includ- ing reinforcements from Forrest and Dick Taylor. Hood will either fight at Columbia, or leaving Columbia to the left, march into East Tennesse and join Breckinridge. It fis possible a battle will be fought at Columbia to-day. ‘A Hebel Colonel was killed in a skirmish yesterday. A detachment of our cavalry were driven in within three miles of Columbia, when the Rebels were repulsed by our infan- try.

[From the Richmond Whig, Nov. 25.) Georgia is now the interesting military field of the Confederacy, Sherman having discarded ¢aution, and boldly advanced into the interior. We would that, without giving infermation to the Yankees, who are now dependent upon uthern sources for information as to his movements, we could tell eur readers where he is and how he is faring. It suffices to » however, that there is nothing in the situation to cause even the least hopeful Confederate to fear that the campaign, as now taken in that quarter, will not resuls most advantageousty to our cause. Instead of applying the torch to certain coveted citles in @ empire State of the South, we indulge in the confident hope that Sherman will soon have to exhaust both Ris military skill and unquestioned energy im making good the re- treat of the remnant of bis defeated army. Latest from Georgia. Just before going to press we learned that the War Department had received information from Georgia of an eminently encouraging character. We refrain from making a more definite statement of the news as it has reeched us, but we are warranted in assuring onr read- ers that the official advices from Georgia are as fayorable as we could expect. Georgia. [From the Richmond Sentinel, Nov. 25.} ‘The intelligence trom Georgia yesterday was very agreeable,ana hene grew more buoyant that Sherman will suiter severely for Bis aa- dacity. A portion of his forces is understood to have been very heavily repulsed in attempt- ing to cross the stream. We forbear particu- jars of names and localities. Let our troops opposed to Sherman adopt sleepless activity for their motto. Let them harrass him with attacks and with alarms. Harrass him by day and harrass him by night. Let them destroy supplies before him, and let them block his roads, and resist his march at every practica- ble point. All this may be done independence of heavier operations which we shall doubtless be able to direct against him. Break in upon his array, and there will soon beagrand hunt, free for everybody, and in which we hope everybody will join. There is no confirma- tion of the report of the burning of Milledge- ville. From G a. From the Richmond Dispatch, Noy. 25.) e are still without any official information concerning Shermao’s movements in Georgia; but we are not entirely without some authen- tic advices on the subject. Sherman was yes=- terday still west of the Oconee river, one of the tributartes of the Altamaha, which runs south through the eastern centre of the State of Geor- gia. Milledgeville 1s situated on the east banic of this stream. Itis believed that the enemy has been to Milledgeville, though we are pretty well assured that no official information of the fact has been received at the War Department. In the only brush we hear of our troops hay~ ing with the enemy, they haye been entirely successful. This affair occurred near Jonesboro, where the Central Georgia Railroad, running trom Macon to Savannah, crosses the Oconee river. A considerable body of the enemy’s cavairy attempted to cross te the east bank of the Oconee on Wednesday morning, but were met by our troops and driven back. The situation in Georgia is regarded in official circles as de- cidedly encouraging. There is one factin the campaign which we think should give much ground for hope; that is the slow progress made by Sherman. He is now in his fifteenth day from Atlanta, and has yet marched only about 75 miles, and has notreached one point of strategic smpor tance. Perhaps he does not now, as when he started out on the expedition, feel himself positively master of the situation. We shall bear more from him in the next day or two. The Richmond Enquirer closes a review ot 8n editorial in the New York Tribune on Sher~ man’s movement, wherein a hopeful view was. taken of the situation in Georgia with the fot- lowing sentence:—‘Confidentially, and not to go beyond Mr. Greeley’s ear, we will tell him that Sherman is not in Macon nor Augusta. The Exchange of Prisoners. The exchange of prisoners goes on well;3,200 Confederates have been delivered, and Capt. Hatch is now engaged in the delivery of Yan- kees in return. Arrangements have been madeto exchange a large number ot prisoners at Mobile, and it is probable that the exchange will soon be re- sumed on the James river, as the arrangements made at Savannah and Mobile were only atthe suggestion of Commissioner Ould, in order to obviate the necessity of so much overland inch shotin one bour is now on the Boston Exchan, travel on the part of the Yankee prisoners. From East Tennessee. wee the Richmond Sentinel, Nov. 25.} e had a very pleasing rumor (says the Bristol Register of the 2d) trom below last night, that Breckinridge and Vaughan again have the Yankees surrounded at Strawberry Plains. There was an engagement on Friday last, in which the negro regiments are said to have suffered severely, three nundred being reported killed. We have not been able to Jearn authentically the particulars, and are ielined to think the report only the fancy of a “reliable gentleman.” The latest information from Knoxville is that Gillem has his head- quarters at the Fair Grounds, and that thereis no prospect of bis receiving immediate rein« torcements. Lee's Advice Desired on Arming Slaves. {From the Richmond Dispatcn ( Editoriat) Nov. 25.) The President, in his message, has alread broached certain military propositions, whic he considers of great importance. Now there is no doubt that General Lee agrees with the President on these subjects. Now if General Lee should be called in, being the man who is toexecute what the President advises, there is no doubt his advice would carry immense Weight with it. The great military question now before Congress, is the recommendation of the President to employ forty thousand slaves in certain epee as Iaborers in our armies, thereby releasing nearly the sam@ number of fighting men. This we consider to be absolutely necessary in the present state of affairs. If Congress feel any doubt, let them. call in General Lee and abide by what he says, and let it be done at once, Pertions of minermactl® Army Reinfercing ood.

The Rebel Prospect in Middle Teunessee not Loeking Flattering. iFrom Mon teomery, Mail, Nov. 6.] We are kept so much in the dark in regara to army movements that we know nothing of them until itis too late tobe called news. I hardly know what to think of the prospect of going to Middle Tennessee. Sometimes it looks auntie flattering, and then again becomes very joomy. e Large quantities of hard tack and bacon are being brought to Tuscumbia, the transporta- tion, already quite limited, ‘being in re~ duced—the usual precursor to a move.
