TIE DUTcHMAs ON GUARD.--A rich joke is re- lated, by of the return volunteers to this place, of Col Wynkoop and German, who is private in his regiment. It seems that at the time they were eneamped at BatonI nIRouge, near New Orleans, the Colonel had been informed that some of the sen tinels on guard, were in the habit of passing men over the lines after night fal and thereby dsobey ing the rules and regulations of camp. h order to test their fidelity. he disguised himself and at about i2 o'clock at night, made the adventure 10 the different posts. The first sentinel he met with. was the volunteer who relates the affair. and he. cognizing the Colonel. did not allow him to pass After trying several others, and meeting with no better success, he came up 10 an cid Dutchman, who, by the by, spoke very bad English, when the following occurred;

 .'l want 10 enter camp" said the Colonel

 "Vat am de pash vort!" responded the German.

 ''Gen. Jackson.'

 'Dat ish not de man."

 "Monterey."

 "Dat ishn't him too"

 "Well then, it is Washington

 "No. he am not de t,--an fl you can DO shay SheneIei Taylor. you can no pash here, by dsm't''

 Alter the pcor fellow had 'iet the cat out of the bag" the Colonel informed him of his bluader, and had him placed on guard twenty-iour hours longer, in order to prevent repetition of such mistakes .4atrdeiie Gazette.
