Since your last advices matters have pursued their usual Youtine, and nothing startling bas transpired to presk the dull_ monotony of camp life, with the exception of @ move on the part of this division of the army again to the front and a slight extension of our lines into Rebeldom. ‘The advance is now within eight miles of the village of Franklin, and our cavalry pickets are stationed about four miles from that place. The rebel pickets are continually passing through that place, reoonnoitering our move- ments, uttcring the mast tremendous boasts, and commit ting, if wocan believe the reports of contrabands,the ‘most outrageous impositions upon the people, many of ‘whom are suspected of Union sentiments, and assisting the rebel sympathizers in running off their stock and ne- groes to Texas. There is no doubt that thousands have had their property thus removed, and undoybtedly there ‘are from two to three hundred thousand nogroes from this State and Arkansas mow in that State, Yemoved to prevent them from being lost their owners. An carly occupation of Texas would ‘unearth all these; and as they could not be removed any further west, and certainly not in any other direction, they would instantly be avallablefor use. Ap:op0s of this, there are several negro regimontal organizitions—con- sisting of colonels, Heutonants colonels, majors, captains ‘and lieutenants—whose men are stifl in the peaceful pos- session of their owners or empioyers, but who will ‘bo organized as soon as the country can be occupied and the negroes brought within the Union lines. As matte:s now stond, it would oppoar as though along time will elapse bofore the ambition of these valiant officers to lead their b'ack cohorts on to victory or death can be gratified, as the able-bodied negroes have been pretty ‘we'l cleaned out of the country. They will have to re. strain their martial ardor until a portion of Texss is oc- cupied, and by that time it would seem that an ad- dition to the Army of tho Gulf would be entirely un- ecessary, and their services would be of far more value in their legitimate capacity—doveloping the resources. of this magvificent country, now lying deserted and over- grown with noxious weeds, and fast relapsing into its original state. This may attract the attention of the au- thorities, and a step may with oaso be then taken which will do more to bring this country back to the Uniun, thoroughly cured of the mania of secession, than the re- cruiting of every able-bodied nogro in the Union could accomplish. REPORTA AND RUMORS, Tateiligent contrabands ana refugees continue to come ‘withia the lines, bringing, as usual, various reports, some f which are probably correct, while many are of the most absurd character. There is one peculiarity in those Yefugees which is particularly noticeable, and is a par- tial evidence of their honesty of intention. In speaking of some man in the neighborhood who is at present away, either with the rebels in arms or in'‘Texas arranging for ‘the security of nis property, the most conflicting ro- ports will be given by different parties. Of ono of the par- ‘ty particularily, a wealthy man in the neighborhood, ‘who had loft and taken off all bis negroes and ‘stock, the refugees and residents gave the most contradictory re- Ports. With ove he was the greatest rebel in the country, acting as a spy, guide, or in any other capacity required; ‘vindictive and cruel to his servants; particularly hostile ‘to any suspected of the least leaning towards Unionism, end, withal, a dangerous, bad man. With another he was quite the reverse—a Union man, who was fearful of losing his property, and temporarily Femoved it; good to the poor, distributing corn ‘and meat to those who were suffering; exemplary and firm in his daily waik; kind to his servants, hospitable ‘to all, and to ail intents one of nature’s noblemen. Look- fing at these roy orts in a cursory light, ove would be apt ‘to suppose one or the other must be a fabrication, and ‘tho only question would be which is the trueand which the false. But the reports were undoubtedly both cor. vact. only that the parties making them had been placed io different positions and saw with entirely different op- ties the phases of their neighbor's character.

Final preparations for the advance are still ander pro- gress, and the prospect is fair that at an carly day they ‘will be completed, and the army pushed forward rapidly and effectively to ite ultimate destination.
