Rebellion Record: a Diary of American Events: Poetry and Incidents., Volume 5. (ed. Frank Moore)

An Effusion from Jeff Thompson.--Missouri produces not only warriors, but poets, and indeed a combination of both, as witness the following from the pen of Mr. Jeff Thompson--the veritable General Jeff, who, at the head of a company of Bush-wackers, has been firing into unarmed steamboats, and picking up stray travellers in South-west Missouri for the past six months, winning from rebel journals the soubriquets of the Swamp Fox, and the Marion of the Southern revolution. It is entitled HomMr. Jeff Thompson--the veritable General Jeff, who, at the head of a company of Bush-wackers, has been firing into unarmed steamboats, and picking up stray travellers in South-west Missouri for the past six months, winning from rebel journals the soubriquets of the Swamp Fox, and the Marion of the Southern revolution. It is entitled Home again, and appears in that whilom decorous newspaper, the New-Orleans Picayune: My dear wife waits my coming, My children lisp my name, And kind friends bid me welcome To my own home again. My father's grave lies on the hill, My boys sleep in the vale; I love each rock and murmuring rill, Each mountain, hill, and dale. Home again!

Incident of the naval fight.--Lieut. Worden was in the pilot-house of the Monitor when the Merrimac directed a whole broadside at it, and received his injuries from the minute fragments of shells and the powder which were driven through the look-out holes. He was stunned by the concussion, and carried away. On recovering, he asked: Have I saved the Minnesota? The reply was: Yes, and whipped the Merrimac. To which he answered: Then I don't care what becomes of me. --Philadelphia North American.

Wilmington, N. C., March 28.--It seems that the Lincolnites at Newbern, having made themselves at home in Mr. Bennington's office, and free with his property, are now publishing the Progress semi-weekly. Our pickets have captured some of the Yankee pickets, and have thus obtained a sight of the precious document.

The editor announces that as soon as he can get some decent paper from New-York, he will publish the Progress daily; but with what he has now, he must confine himself to a semi-weekly.
