That Torpedo

that exploded at Deep Bottom last ween, a little too soon to entirely demolish a Yankee gunboat, had the effect of hurrying overboard and into eternity several of the hirelings of Lincoln's horde. Since then six bodies have floated ashore and been buried by our forces. The next fleet will probably fare worse without traveling so far.
