Arrest of a Notorious Character.—Sun. | dry of the Virginia newspapers have recent- ly noted the passage through this city of a notomous Abolition incendiary, calling himself Win. Hf. Uurlbart, for many years one of the editors of that despicable sheet, the New York Times. Hurlburt register ed himself while here as from Charleston, S. C., aud was evidently, from tis antece- dents, on a crusade devising new expedi- ents to please his Black Republican em- ployees, by misrepresenting the South in decrying ler institutious, as he had done in years past on both sides of the Atlantic for filthy fucre. The notice taken of the fellow caused the trail of the serpent to he watched, and he was flually overhauled in Atlantay Ga., aud imprisoned as a spy.— He arrived in Richmond, Sunday evening, in custody of five Southern patriots, who delivered him over to the authorities. [t, is to hoped that a mistaken leniency will not permit the turning loose of this man on the community again. Tf dealt with | according to his deserts, (as accorded by | all evidence on the subject.) he should no | doubt be speedily made to pay the penalty of his atmerous crimes by the forfeiture of his worthless existence. Jlurtburt claims to be a native of Souch Carolina, but the general suppositor is that she was from home the night he made lis entry into the world, The prisoner was specially in charge of W. 1S. Bassford, of Atlanta, who, on lis arrival | here, delivered bim to Gen, Davis, who } banded him over to the Gyvernor, who Vsent Him to jail. He will no doubt bave au examination to day. : 1 | | We Jearn that if Ifurlburt escapes jus: tice in Virginia, there is now a warrant) here for his arrest, issued by Judge Gil- i christ, of Charleston, 5.

Behold this ruin! Twas skull, Ouce of ethereal epirit full, ’'Y his narrow cell wus Lite’s retreat, This space was (hought’s mysterious seat. What beanteous visions filled this »put ! What dreams of pleasure long forgot! Nor Hope, nor Love, nor Joy, nor Fear, Have left one trace of record here. Beneath this mouldering canopy Once shone the bright and busy eye ; But etart not at the dismal void: If social Love the eye empinyed ; If with no lawless fire it gleamed, Bat through the dew of kindness beamed, That eye shall be forever bright When stara and sune are sunk in Night. Within this hollow cavern hang The ready, swift, and tuneful tongue. If Falsehood's honey it disdained, Aud where it could not pruise, was chained ; If bold in Virtue’s cause it spoke, Yet gentile Cuncord never broke ! This silent tongue shall plead for thee When Time unveils Eternity. Say did these fingere delve the mine? Or with its envied rubies shine ? To hew the rock, or weur the gem Can little now avail to them. Bat if the page of Truth they sought, Or comfort to the mourner brought, These hands a richer meed sha!! clam Than all wuit on wealth or fame. Avails it whether bare ur shod, These feet the paths of duty trod? If from the bowers of Euse they fled, To seek afflictions humble shed: If grandeur’s guilty bride they spurned, And home to Virtue’s cot returned, Theee feet with angels wings shall vie, And tread the paluce of the sky.

They address themselves har moniously and zealously to this enterprise, be- cause the usual supply of Bibles from the North is cut off by the inhuman violence and oppression of our e:ies, who are invading our borders, deseisiing our fi destroying our homes, vivlating our social and national rights, aud wag:ag a war of subjugae- tion against us. In consequence, multitudes of ovr noble soldiers cannot be presented with the Bible ag they go forth to encounter privation, danger, carnage and death. The poor man, whose sequestered home has heretofore been unvisited by the Bible Agent, inust Dow remain destitute of a voluine em- bracing the precious doctrines of salvation, for we have no ove to send him. Our Sab- bath Schools can no longer be supplied, and the innocent and bright-cyed children we love can receive from the land of parent or friend no copy of the Word of Life. Thos must nos continue. It canuct be borne. Every bear that loves its relatives, its fiends, its fellow- citizens, its country, or its God, revolts at the first thought of the blessed Bible bemg denied us. We should deeply appreciate the impor- tance of every soldier having a convenient copy. It will teach him bow to serve hie conntry, as well as his God. 1t wil arm him with superhuman power against the invader. It will make bim a magnanimous christian be- ro. It wilhinstil into his soul such feelin motives and principles as will marshall ¢ angels to his protection aud assistauce, and humbly and successtul court victory from the almighty hand of the God of batdes. It will prompt him to live nobly in peace or in war, and prepare him, if spared, to return to bie home and friends with au intluence far great er in degree, while it is ennobhng and sane ufying im its character. It will breathe peace upon his heart when amid tis Waals be dreame hot the sweet joys and friends of his distant |home, and will baoy bin with hope, aod i shield him with security when he faces the ‘battle and grapples with che loe. 1 he fatl in the struggle, it will pillow tis soul in the jbour of death, and wing it for its happy tlight to the Land of the Beautiful and Blest.

The letters gave (ull aecounta of our nuaibers, description of oar fortifications, of points pregnable— vo fact, an entire description of every thing available to the enemy. Among other things, they stated tat free speech was restricted here—that they dare not utter sentiments treasonable to the South, for fear of arrest; but that they held a “think- ing clab,” held meetings often and thought what they pleased. They also gave the names of the immortal 75 who voted agaimst the Ordinance of Secession, and urged an immediate attack upon Norfolk. The names of the writers were signed to them, which caused the arrest of one of them, named C. W. Bryan, who is now in the city jail, and wall be turned over, I un- derstand, to military authority.

The ordinance published in oor laat relating to the transfer of State troops to the Confederate Govern- nent, Was wot complete.

No ladies in any place are duing more for the soldiers than the ladies of Suffulk and vicinity. Many of the sol: diers will remember their kindness in af: ver life. Lieutensat Co!.

The cut from the hurse’s hoof was below the kuce pau, and was very deep, but for- tumatcly no bunes were broken. Two men, supposed to be deserters from some of the companies below, were seen yesterday making their way around Suf tolk and aiming for Petersburg. They stopped @ countryman aud obtained infor- mation as to how they might get by the sentinels. The countryman was frighten ed, and ran away as svon as he Sal Hol them. This is like almost every other commu nity in the South. There is a cunstant thirst in the public mind for something new. If the masses could have their way, they would start Beauregard to Washiug- ton and Magruder to Fortrese Mourve without an hour’s delay, so that something new might be brought out. Every body is tired of waiting for the cowardly Yan- kees to advance upon our furces. Our boys want to whip them and go home. Brock. Clearly Done.--Our readers (says the N. O, Bullet.o will r member that a few days ago the schooner Hope trom Guada- loupe, was captured off the bar by the U. S. man-of-war Brooklyn, aud a prize mas- ter and a crew of eight men placed aboard of her. Among the Hope's passengers was a French lady, who declared that she was anxious to reach New Orleans, and pro- vested, as a French subject, against her detention by the U.S. naval officers. So strong were her protestations that the prize master yickled, and sent her ashore in his boat, manned by his eight jolly tars.—— While the boat was ou the way, the Cap- tain of the hope cut bis cable, raised sail and put out to sea, with the prize master on board the Brouklyn baving in the mean- time gone some distance off after another vessel. A letter received here yesterday by ber owner announces the arrived of the Hope at Havana, the gallant Captaia being in @ great quandary as to what disposition be should make of his prisoner, the United States prize master. One Indian, One Kentuck—One In- dian, Two Ohio.—The sight of « compa- ny of hardy Kentuckians, on the Capitol Square last Wednesday evening, brought to our miud an incident of the war of 1812, illustrative of the Indian estimate of the comparative efficiency of Kentucky and Ohio troops on the field of battle. A Brit- ish officer ia the North western campaign related that their Indian allies had a great horror of Kentuckians, while they looked upon Ohioians as not very formidable. It was a common saying among them — * One Indian, one tcaeuete ote Tndian, tw6 Ohio—meuning that in their view, it took two Ohio men to inake one Kentuck- ian or one Indian. On a certain occasion, said the British officer, “ we determined to attack a party of Americans not far from us, im ao open field, and called upon the Indians to co-operate with us.

H. Seward, Abe Lincoln, Hannibal Hamlio, Charles Sumner, Henry Wilson, John P. Hale, &c.

Hence their superbuman efforts tocrush the South before the reaction takes place. But, they canvot evade their accountability to Gud and the people. If the war continues three years, the men we have named above will be fugitives in foreign countries. Insanity of Queen Victoria.—The Ga- zette de France says that ° Dr. Scroleiv has been sent for to London to attend a a consultation of French avd German phy- sicians on the state of the Queen’s health, which, it seems, is such as to give rise to uneasiness.” The following mysterious paragraph ap- pears, under the head of “latest news,” In the new jourual, Le Temps: “We learn from Berlin that the Prince and Princess Royal, with the little Prince don about the middle of July. It appears secure & salutary emotivn fur Queen Victo- ria—to change the current of her thoughts by their society. The rumors that circu- late about ber Majeaty’s condition are truly alarming, and awaken the most sincere sytopathy here. Her Majesty is only 42 years of age; her bodily bealth is perfeet- ly good, and it may be reasonably hoped that, under proper treatment, the moral toalady with which she is afflicted will soon disappear.” It would seem that the old ladies of the North are to be conipelled to contribute the funds that Lincoln tinds necessary to carry on bis raid against the South. There is talk in New York of the Government raising funds by securing, through Con- gress, the passage of a bul levying a tax upon tea of ten cents per pound; on cof- fee of three cents per pound, and on sugar of two and a half cents per pound. It is said a committee of New York merchants have recommended this tax to the Govern- nent, and the next Congress, it is believ- ed, will sanction it. The projectors of the scheme must have forgotten the particu- lars of a well authenticated event which oecurred once in Boston harbor. If the levy is atternpted we predict that it will soun be discovered, even in Boston, aboli- tionized as she is, that some of the descend- ants of those who participated in 1765, are still living! Let a note be made of this | N. BP. Willis publishes one of his silly, pied atthe North, descriptive of & visit which he lately made to Arlington, the residence of Gen, Lee, of the Confederate States, and the headquarters of McDowell, one of the Generals of the Lincoln vandals. Willis, in this lettee, publishes himself a greater knave than we ever thought him, poor as bas always been our opinion of his He acknowledges that he fore- ed his way into and prowled through the house of a gentleman, which General Me- Dowell, in occupation of the grounds, had declined even to enter—that he carefully inspected the furniture, and even the bed clothes of Gen. Lee’s family, and appro— priated a maouscript from his library, from which Willis now gives extracts for publi- cation. Tbe incident will tend to wWlus— trate what is meant at the North by a gen- tlemao. Willis, then, patron and model of elegant propriety, publicly acknowledg- es himself a prying intruder into a gentle- man’s household, and exults in a success— tnanhood. * Keatuck! Keetuck!

Antidote for Intermittent Fever——Sub stitute for Quinine.—Dr. D. B. Phillips, late of the United States Navy, now of the Confederate States Navy, says: Ruw cord neal unsifted and ground administered in doses of a large table spounful six or eight times a day, or a tea made of fodder, is an admirable remedy in Intermittent Fever. The yellow corn 1s the better variety, and a drink made of @ tablespooaful of the meal stirred in a glass of water and takea frequently is not only a good remedy but a p.easant and refreshing beverage, which may be taken in all stages of the disease without the slightest evil effects. pi ih aay coe alan di dhe disselu- 4 tion of the Union.

A Southern Flag onthe Alleghany Mountains.—A Weautiful Southern flag was raised in the vicinity of the Alieghany Springs a few days since, under the auspices of some ladies from New Orleans and Memphis, who are visiting the Springs, the raising of which was done in a man- ner traly wonderful. The hishest pinnacle of the Atleghany Moun- tains was selected as the point for raising the flag, to which the ladies walked, a distance of two anda half miles; on reaching which, a tall pine, about one hundred feet high, was climbed by a negro, with an axe in his mouth, and the flay staff in one hand, to the topmost branch, to which the staff was attached, and the flag thrown to the reece, It now gally flutters in full view of the surrounding country for miles, and from the hotel at the Springs the “Stars and Bars” can be distinetly seen.

The expedition lett Clarksburg ou Satur- day eveuing,and warehing all wight,reach Westun on Sunday moruing,about five o'clock.The people were all asleep,but the fine band which accompanied the ex- pedition aruused the drowsy population by playing the Star Spangled Banner,Col. Tyler took possession of the place,and Capt.List went down aud demanded the money in the name of the State of Virgin- ia No resistance was made,and the gold was forked over.Some of the bank men thought the amonut ought to have been taken in currency,but Capt.List said he didu’t think so,and that was all of it.

Its faithfulness will be re- coguized by all, and acknowledged by every candid person : ‘It is a great mistake to suppose that a blood-hound is a courageous dog. The men who have plunged us into this war, who have hallooed on the people, are men that have wisely stayed at home. And a part of the plan to cover up their own want of courage, is to keep up the cry of war. The rebels in the South who planned the dissolution of the Union, who advocated it in Con- gress and in the newspapers and on the stump, are the men who have taken the field, while the Northern editors and Congressmen and Sena- tors who opposed compromise, who dragged us into it, at home, making contracts to supply army stores, and shouting “traitor” atevery man who venturrs to remind them of the evil they have brought on the country, or sugyest a remedy for it.” Running a Blockade.—The Wash - ington (N. ©.) Dispatch, of the 10th inst., says: The schooner Chas. Roberts, Capt. Fowler, arrived on Thursday last with a cargo of molasses. She had been to the West Indies and succese- fully ran the Lincoln blockade. She was chased, however, off the bar at Ocracoke and fired at. She gave up all as lost and lowered her flag.— The chasing steamer was sure of a prize. But when she came up, be- hold it was Capt. Crossan, of the N. Carolina Navy!

Northern usurper, (says the Nashville Un- ion,) that is calculated to open the eyes of all who have advocated neutrality in either of the Southern States. It is particularly udapted to the condition of Kentucky.— Many of the people of that State have ad- vocated strict neutrality between the North and the South, believing that they would be euabled to keep themselves free from the controversy, aad save their State from the horrors of war. The Legislature of the State adopted resolutions declaring that Keutucky would remain neutral in the contest, and would not permit the passage of troops over her soil trom either party. ‘The Governor, in accordance with these resulutions, issued a proclamation warning both parties from violating this ueatrality. Tuasmuch as all of Lincoln's acts were gross usurpations of power and clearly in derogation of the Constitution, Kentucky had a perfect right to assume this position, because any aile- giance sha owes to the Federal Govern- ment is under aod by virtue of the Consti- tution, and what is violated and disre- garded, she is at perfect liberty to refuse obedience to an unconstitutional authority. But it was a delusion to suppose that the usurper would respect this neu- trality. Assuming that, whilst a State re- mains in the Union, it is bound to obey all its edicts, no matter Low arbitrary or anconstitutional, be claims perfect allegi- ance and demauds the right to prosecute hostilities against the Southern States across Kentucky soil. He says that this neutral- trality is impossible and would “tie the hands of Unionists and feed the insurrec- tionists.” The objection to it, as thus stated, is that it will prevent Lincoln from carrying on a war of invasion against the States which lie beyond the neutral territory. He says it “recognizes no fidelity to the Constitu- tion, and no obligation to maintain the Union.” The truth is, that neutrality in this war simply brands Lincoln’s acts as usurpations, aud the Unioa which upholds them as a despotism. But his acts being usurpations, and his Union a despotism, neutrality to it is not enough. Armed hostility to it can alone save a State from its encroachments, and preserve tbe liberties and rights of the States and of the people. Lincoln will not recognize such neutrality. Nothing will do but abject obedience to his tyranny, and submission to his usurpations. Will Ken- tucky obey, like a slave, this last decree of the usurper? Will she oringe and crouch at his feet and be driven by his scourge into internecene war upon her Southern sisters ? Will she allow her soil to be made the the- atre of hostilities forced upon her unwil- lingly by this tyrant, without arousing her, ancient manhood and chivalry and resist- ing an unconstitutional tyranny, carried on under the mockery of upholding tree gov- ernment upon the earth? Will she adopt all of Lincolu’s sophisms, and approve his purjured acts, by which he has overturned the Constitution and would now make slaves of the whole South? The issue ts fairly made up by the usurper, and Ken tucky must now choose her course. It re- mains to be seen how she will act. Ler glory or her shame depends upon the te- sponse she may give. FROM PENSACOLA. A correspondent of the Mobile Register, under date of Pensacola, July 2d, has the following : “Gen. Bragg yesterday sent a note in charge of Assistant Inspector General Slaughter, with another officer, under a white flag, to Col. Brown, at Fort Pickens. They were met at the usual place of Jand- ing, and making known their mission, handed the note to the old colonel, who, with trembling hand, adjusted his specta- cles, Scanning the superscription—To Col. Harvey Brown, commanding at Fort Pickens,’—he insultingly returned the paper, and without form or ceremony left his guests, who, disgusted with his rude- ness, returned it, unopened, to General Bragg. What its contents were is not known, or at least publicly. Old Brown is very punctilious, and must be addressed as “Col. Harvey Brown, Commanding De- partment of Florida.” The old fellow puts on a good many airs about his “de- partment,” small as it is. “Gen. Wm. H. T. Walker, the hero of a hundred fields, visited the city to-day, He looks improved in health very much. He talks freely with bis friends, and you can see light in every expression of his soldier countenance. Randall, Lanier and Crump, and his per sonal friends aud brother officers in the old army.” The usual outrages committed by Lincoln’s Vandal thieves, wherever they have have found their way into the South, are being perpetrated in Martinsburg. All citizens suspect- ed of fidelity to the South are arres- ted and thrown into prison—their property taken for the use of the rogues—and that which cannot be appropriated to their own use, de- stroyed. A day of reckoning is in store for them.— Winechcster Vir. ginian. »> dine j y 5, | He dined with Capts. jinterred that that class of | | SALISBURY, N. C,: - ooo THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 18, 1861.

On Sunday and yesterday, rumors of a start- ling aud awful character were rife in our streets, Early Sunday morning, 1t somehow got noised about that some dread calamity had befallen our arms, but whether the dis- aster had occurred at Winchester or in the Northwest, newsmongers were unable to de- cide. At two o'clock on that day, passen- gers by the Central road brought information that sixteen hundred of our troops, under Lieut. Col. John Pegram, had been surprised | and cut to pieces, or overpowered, by an over- whelming force under Gen. McClellan. Du- ring Sunday evening, tuls news, together with some corroborating telegrams, which originated in Cincinnati, formed a staple of street talk, Some citizens were disposed to believe all, and more than they heard, whilst others, who had started out in the morning, believing all that was rumored, and fearing that the worse had yet to be told, concluded the day by believing nothing, having canvass- ed so many widely different reports as to have talked and listed themselves into a state of utter and universal incredulity. During yesterday forenoon, the same sub- ject occupied the minds and tongues of most of our citizens, though the number ofthe sceptical as to the truth of the bloodiest ru- mor had largely increased. Thus the day wore on, every man among us feeling more or less anxiety to hear the news to be brought by the 24 o'clock Ceutral cars. The train was more than an hour behind its usual time, and long before it arrived a great crowd had as- sembled about the depot. As the passenger alighted, they were im- mediately seized upon by friends and acquuin- tunces and the news demanded ; and although there were ut least a dozen men on the train, who had come directly from the vicinity of the battle, many citizens, after hearing the exposi- tion of some passengers who hud only come from Gordonsville, or some intermediate point, went home with wilder and more exaggerated accounts of the fight and of our loss than had yet been enacted. A gentleman directly from Beverly, who, from his high official position, must bave had every advantage of accurate information, gave | us substantially the following statement: | Lieutenant-Colonel Peygram, with three hun- | dred men, being in the neighborhood of Rich | Mountain, had been set upon by McClellan with | his whole force, amounting to at least twenty- five thousand ten. | Br : : 4 5 | For two hours the gallant little band under | signing lis seat in the State Conven- | Pegram succeeded in holding in check this overwhelming force of the enemy.

Scott sent two messengers forward to ascertain what was yolng on; the first was shot by our own men, andthe second, who was hot sent forward until after the enemy had surrounded Pegram, was shot by the Lincoln- es We learned from another source that the first messenger was very drunk, and that, on riding up in the rear of Pegram’s men, he an- nounced himself as a ‘'Yankee Colonel,” whereupon he was immediately shot. ‘This rumor we give for what it is worth.

In the ‘Treastiry oft of Secretary Chase to the Lincola Congress, chat the reqeipts for the Ips ing the 30th of June, were only $6, 246 33. This is at the p(@o byfenty-iwo nullious of dollars a year, Whilé the Ordi- nary appropriations made by the last Con- yess, Without reference to the condition of wats amounted to $65,887,890 34. ‘The war obliges the Secretary to ask fur so inuch more as to swell the expenses of the year to $318,519,581 89.’ Iv addition to ail this, if we understand rightly, should the army be igereased to £00,000 men, as recomanended’ by Lin- coln, there will be g160,000,000 more to be raised, besides the $318,000,000. Will sey get it? We shall see. The bankruptcy of @ man or a govern— ment that spends three times as mueh as is received, is plain enough; but when the expenditures reach fourteen times as much as the income—three huudred and eigh— wen millions against twenty-two millions —the creditors may well stand aghast. Aud then the money ig worse than wasted; itimight be wisely invested in the bottom of the sea, instead of in useless attempts to subjugate x people detertnined to be free. Secretary Chase feeds Congress upon ruch ilusions as the fullowing :— se: “Ttis hardly to be doubted, moreover, | that the great body of the citizens of the | States bow involved in the calamitics of insurrection will, ere long, become satistied that order, and peace, and security for all | rights of property, and for all personal aud | political rights ig the Union aud under | the constitution, are preferable to the dis— order, and conflict, and insecurity necessa- rily ingident to the attempts to subvert the | Government, break up the institutions, and | lestroy the nationality by force aud vio— When, under the influence of this reasouable conviction, the people of the | several States now constrained by the. criumiual folly of political partisans into ¥ civil war against the Union, shall in their | turn constrain these partisans to lovalty, tu law aud obedience to the Constitution, iis not unreasonable tu expect that, with arestored Union, will come vot merely renewed prosperity, but prosperity renewed in & degree and measure without parallel iu the past expenenuce of our country.” THC. The great body of citizens of the South: | ern States ave not particularly eacouraged ‘v hope for such security of rights of pro-. perty and of personal and pohucal rights, by the robberies daily perpetrated by our iuving Northern friends, and by the arrest | and imprisonment of our best citizens with- out and agaist the authority of the Con sutution apd laws. ‘The South means to wave order and peace and security, buat at will bave them by driving off the thieves aud striking dowu the oppressors. Look not therefore, ob Mr. Chase, for any *1e- newed prosperity” from this quarter, it will come. ‘The South is done with con tributing to the prosperity of the North; butts now engaged in rnoning the North tuto debts from which it will vever recove | er, aud in killing off a few of the thous— auds of villains that have infested wreal cities. their i In this alone we are doing | them an incidental good, for which we- presume they are at heart thankful. Chase's proposition to confiscate the property of those engaged in the cause of | the South, and to put the proceeds in his | Heasury, will not be pleasing to the army, whose officers and soldiers have evidentiy arrived at the conclusiun that such pro- , petty constituted their “pickings aod steal- yrs,” The following is bis sugyestion of Uacet DOD “Tt will not, perhaps, be thought out of place if the Secretary suggest’ here that the property of those engayed to dnsurrec: Nou,orin giving aid and comfort to the the insurgents, may properly be made to eoptribute to the expenditures, Uiide hee cessary by their criminal miscouduet, as a partof the punishinent due to the guilt ofinvolving the nation in the calamities of civil war, and thereby bringing distress Upon many jJunocent citizens.

He is a Virginian, and said to be an officer of uncommon ability, and regarded by General Lee with especial confidence. If the recent reverse which it is reported has befallen our arms under Gen. Garnett, should be confirmed, it may be attributed, in a great measure, to the disloyalty of Vir- ginians residing in that section. Not one in twenty can be trusted, and we fear when the truth of the misfortune reaches us, it will be seen that our defeat is due sulely to information given by traitors. It is uot to be believed that McClellan knew more about those mountain fastnesses and cattle paths than Gen, Garnett. Ignorant of the locality, McClellan could only obtain infor— mation from the residents thereabouts. — Receiving such knowledge from traitors, as he no doubt did, be found it an easy mat— ter to surround two entire Regiments of Confederates, and thus render them an easy capture. These traitors must be cleared out. The mountains and the forests of all that section will have to be scoured, and and the adherents of Carlile and Pierpont, cither imprisoned or exterminated, betore we can hope for success.

Romsey, Jnly 4th. | To the Kiilors of the Whig: On the morning of the 26th June, Mr. | Richard Ashby was stationed in charge of | ascouling party of aboul Gwenty men on Pattersou’s Creck, belonging to the corn- pany of Capt. Purucr Ashby, then rendez: | vousing at Camp Washington, six miles | below Romney on che South brauch of the | Potomac, a part of Col. MeDouald’s com- | mand. He received a letter from a citi | zen of Lampshire county, steting that with | Mr. Asiiby’s assistauce ata certain hour, | and place, a buterivus traitor could be ar- rested, Mr. Ashby once before advanta geous'y avin uscd the services of the in- formant, lestiated not to comply with: tas | request. Ou reiching tis bouse, lis sus- | picious were aroused by the evident alarin | of the tafurmant, who stated that he had | been arrested Chat tnorning by tour or five | Federal (rovps aud carried inte Maryland. but that le was afterwards released. He stated further that there were no Federal troops ia that neighborhood then, they haviuy all goue back to Cumberland, but thatat he would burry on be might overtake two or three strazelers then re turning. For this purpose Mr. Ashby se- parated lis command, sending twelve men to carry out the primary object of arrest ug the traitor, aud retaining eight for the purpose of cutiny off the stragylers above referred to. Atier following the route to Cumberland sufficiently long to see that he bad been decetved by bis informant and that something was wrong, he endeavored to form a conuection with his party of 12 below liim. . Bat, when distant from the others about ove mile, he beard the order yviven to an amabushed party of Federal troops to fire ; who having allowed him to pass, thereby effectually cut off lis retreat. Mr. Ashby thinks this party numbered 35 or 40. This attack was made along the track of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, which was Just here for the most outof rock, with no | means allowed of filing either to the night or left, for three quarters of a mile to a ra- vine spanned by a railroad cattle-guard about ten feet in depth, at which place be knew there was space enough to wheel his men and check the enemy’s advance, un- al he was joined by his party of 12 men theo below. Before reaching this point, at a sharp angle of the Railroad, he Lalted lis men and fired upon the enemy as they came up; ilis materially checked their advance, killiug one or more of them 5 at ter which he gave the order to wheel, up the ravine, at the cattle guard, where he purposed to make his stand. Several of his amen had not been over the ground be- fore and vot knowing where the ravine was, aud, Mr. Ashby being in the rear, they passed by the point at which he intended 19 wheel them keeping the track of the Railruad, and their borses except one fall- ug in the guard. Before they reached there, however, ome man by the enemy's tire had his horse disabled, and Mr, Ashby had with lim on!y one man; him he sent forward to check and bring back those who bad mistaken the order to wheel.— highting as he retreated, Mr. Ashby turn- el los borse and came in ander the cattle- yuard, when he found bis men fightug another party uf Federals who had been | ainbushed near by. Fighting desperately the mmen endeavored to cover their retreat | up the ravine. One of the men on toos did not reach the party of twelve below, who had oo officer with them, and turned them back, saying that all Mr. Ashby's command were killed. Mr. Ashby’s men did succeed in reaching the woods, having exhausted their fire, and thinks he was dead. | Dunnoy the fight Mr. Ashby bad cut one of them down, while he was in the act of bayoneting his comrade, and snapping the two remain ay caps on his repeater, he pros- trated another with the butt thereof who was aiming his gun at one of the Confed- *rates who was endeavoring to reach cov- "rin the woods. After which the whole "uty of the enemy was turned upon Mr. Ashby and he was necessarily overpower- ed, receiving several very severe wounds Over the head, one of which cleaved off bart of the skull just over the left eye, an- ' \ i taken place, which he presumed to lave lis spurs and harricd away, doubtless fear ing that the party below would be rein- forced and attack them. Thus ended Mr. Richard Ashbv’s fight. Capt. Turner Ashby with eleven men, during that morning visited Mr. Richard Ashby’s scouting station on Paiterson’s creek, fur the purpose of inspection, &e.— He found that his brother had gone out ob a scunt, and about one o'clock P. M., received inturmation that two parties of Federal troops had left Cumberland that inorning for the purpose of surprising and cutting off the scouting party of his broth: er. linperfectly armed as lis men were (not expecting any active service that day) he hurried on to thwart the design of the enemy, if possible, at the same time dis- patching a courrier to camp Washington with the order: that his men should join him as soon as possible. After moving on very rapidly for about enght miles, be painfully ascertained that he was behind them about ove hour, and thata fight had | been with lis brother and party. Kuow- ing tbe odds avaiyst him, the character of the ground, and the enemy's intention to: ambush tits brother, if possible, and fear ing that those neuwr and dear to him had echer been killed or captured, he burned forward determined to retrieve the day.— A heart less stout and brave than Capt. Asbby’s would have quailed before the | fearfal odds against him, for bere he learu- | ed that the enemy numbered sixty or se- venty. TPhis intormativa reached Capt | Asblby on the road down the ravine drains | ed by Dan’s Run, which, running under | the B. & OLR. I, through a culvert, | emptied into the Potomac opposite Kel- lev’s Island. On either side of this road, | after reaching tbe island, the enemy had | taken cover iu the drift wood and dense growth. As Capt. Asliby reached the cul- | vert he saw tracks leading both ways, as | well through as around the same. Lalt- ing bis men, alone this gallant man rode through the culvert in sight of the island ; at this time he was fired upon by the ene- my. Here he gave a whoop (and his boys say it was a terrible whoop) and ordered the charge through the river bere about | 35 or 40 yards wide. ‘This drew their fire, whilst Capt. Ashby’s orders to his men were to reserve theirs for close quarters, Upon reaching the island one of Capt. Ashby’s meu was wounded and another dismounted ; both returned to the Virgin- ia side. Capt. Ashby still advaneing, fired several rounds with revolvers.

The dying man drauk and died. IT make ho comment on this instance of moral heroism. After the last battle, a search was made for Mr. Richard Ashby, who was not found until 9 o'clock that mght, In- stifterable almost must have been his agony, as he was left by the enemy, with no one near him to give him so much eveo as a drop of water. When found, the first thing he did was faintly to ask for water. He was tenderly conveyed to a cabin, on the banks of Ian’s Creek, on the porch of which his wounds were dressed, for the first time—over six hours from the time he bad fallen. On the same porch, side by side with young Ashby, lay the only wounded man of the enemy our men were able to find. Ilis wounds were tenderly dressed by our surgeon, and ice to quench bis thirst, and morphine to allay Ins pain, were given him as to Mr. A.; albeit he leg. was supposed to have been the man who tator, published not tar from the scene of | | action. And it must not be forgotten that our brave boys bad no breastworks tu pro- | tect them, save an ordinary rail fence: | A portion of the Virginia Regiment un: | der the command of Col. Harper, with the artillery company of Capt.

The loss on our side | was ouly three killed and 8 or 9 wounded. As our gallant little force was so small as to be in danger of being flanked by the enemy, as they had such a very large force our men retreated slowly, firing with dea‘l- ly effect all the time. Ilere it will be seen that this gallant lit tle band, numbering only 380 men, had the courage to engage in deadly conflict a force of 9,000, the odds being largely over twenty to one in favor of the enemy. This exploit, we think, is unparalleld in history. Le The other day a British ship came into Mobile barbor nnder the Confederate flag.

This “happy ac- cord,” we vow perceive, stull exists in relation to American affairs, and will probably be used to counterbal- ance any inequalities touching the control of the affairs of Europe, Asia and Africa, as between England and ' France.

Now, to qui- et herdangerons neighbor across the Channel, England proposes to share with France the profits of our dis- mnmemberment, and Louis Napoleon, willing to makea catepaw of Englana promises for his own ulterior pur- poses, that some day the “ great En- ropean Powers will recognize the Repabtic of our Southern States. Now, what are wedo? We have an army of three hundred thousand wen in the field for the purpose of suppressing the Southern rebellion. We have pnt our Southern seaboard under a rigid blockade, from Nor- folk to the Mexican boundary. We have apparently every thing in rea- diness to form an overwhelming and crushing campaign. The Adminis- tration at Washington, we are assur- ed from Gay to day, will listen to no compromise antil this rebellion is crushed and diearmed. The armies of the Union are ready and impa- tient for action, and there is no more time to be lost. Mr. Lincoln must now proceed to fight or prepare for compromise. * England and France” may be waiting only for a pretext upon which to recognize our South- ern Republic; and when they begin to fall short in the article of cotton, we may expect to hear from them. For our part, looking to those fore- shadowed Eropeau complications, we think the time has arrived for defeating thein by a speedy reckon- ing with our rebels in the field ; or by falling back upon Seward’s grand American continental programme of annexation. We can anticipate and circumvent our European enemies by turning against them our Northern and Southern armies, now arrayed a@- gainst each other.

Desperate and Bloody Conflict--- The Confederates Gloriously Victorious---The Enemy Rout- od, and Pursaed to Alexandria! Particulars. Prrerspur¢, Monday, 1 o’clk ?. M, July 22, 1861. To the Editor of the Standard : The battle on Thursday last at Bull's Ran, near Manassas Junction, was a decid- ed victory for the Confederates. ‘The loss of the enemy was certainly one thousand ; our loss was inconsiderable. The fight was renewed on Sunday, the 21st, at avd bevond Manassas. It com- meneed at four o'clock, A. M., by the Con- federates, who discovered the enemy throw- ing up breastworks under pretence of bury- ing their dead. The Yankee forces were estimated at one hundred thousand, and that of the Southerners at sixty thousand, General Johnson had joined Gen. Beauregard with twenty thousaod, and Gen. Patterson had joined General McDowell, with thirty-five thousand men; and both participated on their respective sides in the battle. The Confederate army was commanded on the right by Gen. Beauregard, in the centre by the commanier-in-chief, Presi- dent Davis, and on the left by Gen. Jobn- son. The federal forces were commanded by Gens. Winfield Scott, McDowell, and Patterson. The fight became general about noon, and increased in violence until seven, P. M., when the enemy fled in wild despair. They were pursued by fifteen hundred cavalry, and followed to Alexandria. ‘They were overridden and cut down ina terri- ‘ble manner. ‘The loss on both sides is fearful, but not ascertained. Among the distinguished officers killed are Gen. Bee, of South Carolina, Gen, Kirby Smith, of Florida, and Col. Johnson, of Hampton’s Legion. Gen. McDowell, of the Yankee army, was mortally wounded. The particulars come in slowly, but itis agreed on all hands that the Confederate victory was brilliant, though dearly pur- chased. A. F.C. Other dispatches received in town state that Col. or Gen. Bartow, of Georgia, was killed ; and that the Confederate forces had captured Sherman’s battery of 22 guns. From the South Carolinian. LATER NEWS. Ricumonp, July 22.—The reports of the | killed and wounded last night were so un- | reliable, amidst the excitement and confu- | sion following the victory at Manassas, that | we refrained mentioning them, being fear- ful of giving causeless pain to many anx- ious hearts. Among the dead are Generals Bartow, | of Georgia, Bee, of South Carolina, and | Kirby Smith, of Florida. Lieut. Colonel | Johnson, of Hampton’s Legion, is also | killed. | General Beauregard and Staff are safe, | though the General had_ his horse shot , from under him. | Gen. Joseph E. Jolinsen commanded | the left, where the enemy made their fiere- | est attack. Gen. Beauregard commanded the right. President Davis reached the | field at noon, and took command of the | centre. When the left wing of our forces was the hardest pressed by the enemy, the centre disengaged a portion of the enemy’s force, and decided the fortunes of the day. No other reliable reports have been re- ceived, but are hourly expected. It is stated that the enemy was com-— | manded by Generals Scott, Patterson and | McDovvell, and it is reported that the lat- ter was seriously wounded. Lieut. Hood, of Capt. Crump’s compa- | vy, (of Augusta, Ga.,) arrived hero last evening, and says his company, and the regiment, which was supposed to bave been captured have arrived safely at Mon- terey. Young Pool, of Crump’s company, was very slightly hurt in the thigh. No- body else is known to be hurt. Passengers state that Gen. Wise won a decided victory in the Kanawha valley last | week, killing 150 of the enemy, and los ing but a few men himself. Nothing later received from Manassas up to 10 o'clock to-day. Ricnonn, July 22—10P.M.—A large public meeting was held this afternoon, at which a committee was appointed to go to Manassas and reeeive all the wounded able to be transported to Richmond.

Ricumonp, July 22.—President Davis sends official despatch to the Secretary of War, announcing a complete and decisive victory yesterday wear Manassas. ‘The enemy, after ten hours fighting, fled pre- ciptately in the direction of Leesburg and Centreville, pursued by our cavairy aod | light infantry, ull night put an end to the pursuit, The enemy left on the field a large quantity of stores, munitions, arws, e., and vast piles of the slain. Everywhere tu the direction of their flight, the dead bod- ies and wounded are scattered, and the neighboring farm-houses on the road are crowded with the wounded of the enemy. The Confederate furces immediately en- gaged were about 15,000, the Federalists are estimated at 35,000. This refers to the left wing, where the battle principally raged, and does not include the right wing and centre, which was only partially eh- gaged. ‘The entire Confederate forcy was about 40,000, aud the Federals neariy 80,000. ‘The enemy lost several batteries of field artillery, and one stand of regi- mental colors. No particulars of the dead and wound: ed on either side bave been received up to 1 o'clock this afternoon, THE SOUTHERN CONGRESS. Ricumonp, July 22.—Congress met at noon to-day, and was opened with prayer. The following despatch, dated Manassas, Sunday night, was read by the clerk : “To Gen. S. Cooper, Adjutant General: Night has closed upon a hard fought field. Our forces have won a glorious victory. The enemy was routed, and fled precipi tately, abandoning a very large amount of arms, munitions, knapsacks aud bagyage. The ground was strewn for miles with those killed, and the farm-houses and the grounds around were tilled with his woun- ded. The pursuit was continued along several routes towards Leesburg and Cen- treville, until darkness covered the fugi tives. We have captured several tield bat- teries and regimental stand of arms, and one United States flag. Many prisoners have been taken. ‘Too much praise can- not be bestowed, whether for the skill of the principal officers, or for the gallantry of all the troops. The battle was mainly fought on our left, several miles from our centre. Our, force was 15,000, and that of the enemy is estimated at 35,000.

Lovuisvitne, July 22.—The following news of tbe Confederate victory at Bull's Run creates the most intense excitement here, starting the public mind —the morn- ing papers having published despatches from Washington proclaiming a brilliant victory for the Federalists.

The Presbytery of Coucord met at Davidson College according to the Call, by circular letter, of the Moderator, and was constituted with prayer. ‘There were present during the meet- ing L7 Ministers and 15 Raling Elders. Rey. Messrs. 8. L. Watson, Win. Banks and J.S. Harris, of Bethel Presbytery, being pres- aut were invited to sit a8 corresponding nem- bers. Rev. J. I. Kirkputrick, D. D., presented a Jetter of disauiseion fram the Presbytery of Charlestou to thes Presbytery ; whereupon, uf- ter the usual examination, he was received as a member. A letter from the Rev. Robert H. Chapman, D. D., wis presented and read. A paper touching the action of the lite Gen- eral Assembly of the Presbvteriau Church was present |. and was taken up seriatim. aud be- tg amended, was unaniinously adopted, and is ae follows, Viz: Wuektas, tne late General Assembly of the Preabyterian Charch convened in Philadelphia, passed Kesolutions demandiag of all Wininters, and Churches to encourage. strengthen aud obey a Goverament now serking by unjust and anconstiiudoual means to destroy our liberties, pillage oar country, and desolate our homes and altars—and whereas we owe allegiance toa dif- ferent Goverument, for whose sufety and pros- whereas, we are thus forced by all that we hold dear on earth te seek a new organization iden- ufied as we believe with the interests of Reli- gion and Patrivtisny— therefore Resolreld, jst. That this Presbytery approves of the plan of holding a convention, composed of Deleyates from all the Presbyteries in tha Confederate States, to adopt mensures neces- sary to form a new General Assembly. Resolved 2d. That as mature deliberation und united action ure iinportant, we reyvard the regular Fall meetings of the different Preebyte- ares ag the most appropriate seasous for the ap- puintinent of such Delegates. Resolved, 3). That we approve of the nomi- nation made by the Orange Presbyterry, of Au- queta, Ga. as the place of meeting, and the we also approve of the ratio of representation aamed by such Fresbytery as fair and equal Resolved, 4th. To meet any contingency jority of the Presbyteries in the Confederate States determine to held a Convention before our regular Fall meeting of this Presbytery, our delegates uppomted to atiend the late General tion, to represent this Presbytery. [t was resolvea, That for the present, the Doinestic Missionaries of this Presbytery make their quarterly reports te the Chairman of the Committee of Domestic Missions, upon which, the said Chairman ghall iseue hisorder upon the Treasurer fur their quarterly payments, and these orders shall constitute the vouchers of the Treasurer. Resuleed, That our Churches be urged to erga Missions, aud that they forward the sane, D. D., at Columbia 5. C. In view of the Jow state of our funds for Do- meatic Missions and Edu’ ation, it was Resolved, That our Churches be urged to mestic Missions and Education, before the vext meeting of our Presbytery. (ltis hoped that special attention will be speedily given to thislast resolution, and that all eur Churches will send tothe next meeting of our Presbytery, contributions for Domestic Mis- fous and Education.)

We canalready see a melancholy tecklessness on this subject; and a disposition on the part of Charch members to find au apol- ogy inour national troubles, to trample the fourth commandment in the dust. ‘The Pres- Svterian Church bas long hud a reputation for ber strict observance of the Sabbath, “sa flint, in her officers und mombera, against {his Sabbath desecration, —thatis coming upon Os hke a flood. lv times of trouble like the present, when there ig ao much aaid and done for and about She State, the Charch isin imminent danger of being neglected.

South Carolina bad seven regiments, in- cluding the Haapton Legion, on the bat- tle ground near Mauassas on Sunday last. The 2d Regiment, commanded by Col. Kershnw, was in the hottest of the fight. Col. Cush, of the 8th Regiment, was with Col. Kershaw, and these two regiments brigaded together. Col. Jenkins’ South Carolian Regiment was in Gen, dunes’ Brigade, and was situ-. ated some distance to the right of the general line, near where the railway cross- es Bull Rup. They were not in the fight until late in the afternoon, when thay made an uusuccessful attempt to storm the bat- tery on the extreine left of the enemy’s line. In that gallant charge they suffered considerably, but the particulars of the killed and wounded are pot yet ascertained. | J have not yet been able to obtain de- tailed reports uf the killed and wounded ‘in any of the South Carolina regiments ip Hampton's Legion.

Just be ore sundown, and when the right wing of the enemy gave way, they i were ordered to charge the batteries in their front, which order they executed in gallant style, led by Gen, Bonbam in per- | ‘yon.

On Sunday. morning, the 21st, iastant,. (says the Wilmington Journal.) a boat with a flag of truce, aud containing seven peraons, came ashore near Fort Caswell. The seven persons were Ligutevant Lyach, one midshipman and five sailora.—all be- longing. to the Federal steamer Daylight, commanded by Gapt Leek wood; now off the mouth of the Cape Fear River. . The object of the visit was to give the Com- mandant of Fort Caswell, (Col. Iversen,) official notice of the fagt that our port. in in a state of avtual blockade. If we are nos mugh mistaken, the Day- light is 9 little evckra:hnop of a thing that evinwenced running between New York and Morehead City. She is but a shell. side-whegled at shat, and a goed sound shot from 4 rifled canon, sueh as the Uncle Ben could carry, would open “daylight” through her. We must get the thing up here to go a fishing in. We want Lock- wood to maul rails, Capt. DeLagnel.—There is the faintest hope that this gallant officer is still Hving. A dispatch from Lonisville, 18th, says, — “ Among the wounded were Capt. Delayuel [DeLagnel] and his Ist Lieutenant. Capt Delaquel escaped to his camp, but was afterwards carried off as a prisoner.

A generous foe would have respected such bravery as be exhib- ited and preferred to take him prisoner rather than to kill him. - .0ee - The Comet.— This celestial visitor is stl! visible. It was first observed at W ashing ton on the 30th of June, when it was re- warded “as an auroral beam.” On the 2nd of July its tail extended to a distance of 80 or 85 degrees. Prof. Bond, of the Cambridge University, pronounces this comet to be different from that of 1264 and 1556, or avy other whose return bas been anticipated. Its train, he says, extends over 106 degrees. Its name is therefore yet to be given. Meanwhile, his cometship ismoving tail foremost between the great and Little bear constellations, with prodi- gious velocity.— Richmond Dispatch. poe se -— The Confederate Loan will be nearly twice as large as that asked tor.

The sum total of thease two States, are confident, will reach thir- ty million dollars—averaging the Cotton crop at fifty dollare a bale. Prisoners.—The 656 Martiosburg prisoners arrived at Richmond on Saturday, in excellent spirits, and one of them, an Irishman, indulged in many lond oathe at the expense ot old Lineoln, and expressed his readiness to “fight against him like h—l and d—n” oe The Privateer Sumter.—A letter from Elavana, 10th inst., received at Boston, says that the Sumter had cap- tured 8 prizes, and sent them all ip- to Cienfuegos except one which was burnt at sea. Privateer Oaptures.—N. Y. pa- pers of the 13th inst., say that the city was atartled by the news of the capture of five yankee vessels off Cape Hatteras by the privateer Jeff Davis. Five revenue cutters and a -gun boat bad eailed in pursuit of her.

Northern accounts from Iinois, of the 17th instant, state that a rebel! ion had broken ont in Washington county, in Illinois.

They much resemble the large size wagons used by the Adan’s Express Company, but are covered, On each wagon was marked “To Richmond,” and in each one was a iarve quantity of provisions. Itis thought by many that we have secured provisions enough to feed an ariny of 100,000 men for six months. The ixty odd pieces of splendid cannon which we took from the enemy, you have already mentioned T believe. A’ solcher informs me that they are all arranged in the form of a semi-circle, fronting General Beaureyard’s headquarters, and that the viciuity more resembles an armoury than a suldier’s quarters.

THE VICTORY At BULL RUN | North Carolina Pully in the Fight. Seman aHiatlary taen,.and..s- lenced by the 6th Regiment of N. Carolinn State Troope. This Regimeut aH day in the Battle and then iq the Chase! After several days of painful anxiety in regard to our North Carolina Troops, we are glad to be able to relieve that anxiety, by the following authenti¢ account receiv- ed on Saturday evening last from a brave officer of the late Col. Fisber’s Regiment. It will be seen that no regiment on the closely contested field of Bull Run did bet- ter service (han the brave 6th regiment of | State troops. Many will be glad to read Capt. York’s letter giving an account of the wounded in his company. Their preservation is providential, Our correspendent says : BATTLE OF MANASSAS. The battle commenced in the morning with heavy canuonading on the right and centre, both sides maintaining their posi- tions. The dull booming of the cannon was distinctly heard by us as we were dis- embarkiug from the cars, and as soon as that was done, our regiment was formed and moved off in quick time, notwithstand- ing our weary march from Winchester, aod though tired and apparently exhaust- ed, yet the terrible cannonading in the cen- tre and on the right, nerved every arin, brightenened every eye, and quickened ev- wry step. On we went through the dust that rose in clouds, uati! we reached a point when we filed to the left and tu a spring, where our canteens were filled with fresh water by companies, and as each coimpa- py received its water, were marched to the shade, and allowed to lie down and rest. After the watering operation was finished, we proceeded and were halted under cov- er of ahill in rear of one of our batteries, aud ordered to load and rest, and imme- diately we loaded and laid our weary limbs | upon the yrass and many fell into a doze, » notwithstanding the battle was raging around us; but men who had not slept for | three nights on a forced march, could sleep any where. ‘This was about 7 o'clock, and the sun shone brightly, and the cannona- ding became more intense, dense clouds of smoke rose from the opposite hills, the | earth shook with the awful thunder, and continued to wax hotter and hotter, when almost instantaneously the men cried out, ; “Col. Fisher we're ready.” He replied “I know that.” Suddenly his clear voice 1) rany out “* Attention ! shouldered his tusket, and at the com- mand “ Forward march,” we moved brisk- ly up the hill and formed a line of battle in rear of one of our batteries, where we could see distinetly the columns of smoke rising up from the enetuies’ batteries on the opposite hills, while the balls were whist- ling around us. Suddenly we shifted po- sition further to the left in a road running by a thick wood, and still the balls were whistling over us. A slug from a rifled cannon passed through our ranks, but there was no wavering, but intent on the at- tack, you could read on every brow the stern resolve to conquer or die. Here we »lood resting on our arms with the wound- ed lying around us, and ever and anon some one would breathe bis last; when azain rang the clarion voice, and led by vir gallant Colonel we filed through the dese tangled undergrowth, and sped on- ward untill we strack a ravine which led directly up to Sherman’s battery, and were halted with two right flank companies un- der Capts, Freeland and York, within 40 yards of the guns and a regiment of the U.S, Army supporting them, when the command of fire was given, when we Si- need the battery at the first fire. Capts. Nirkland and Avery led their men around ‘le point of woods and charged the batte- 'y and drove every man from the pie- “es. About this time, some officer cried nt to cease firing, that we were firing in- ‘0 our own men. Exposed to a raking fire from the ene- 'ny, and fired into by our friends, Col. Fish- er ordered us to tretreat, which was done 1n some disorder, owing to the cry that we Were firing into friends. And it was bere se 28 PRR AS Dy ? an — 7 i ad i ‘lind: the’ galfant Ool.

No more gal- lant spirits strode over that field, than Lt. Lightfoot and Maj. Webb. The remain- der of the regiment, under different officers, fell in with other regiments and fought to the last. No regiment behaved with more bravery and gallantry than the N. Carolina 6th Infantry, on that memorable field. Led up into the hottest of the fight, within a few yards of a battery that was raking ourarmy, they delivered their the with the deadliest precision. Our loss was. about 60 killed and wounded. Among the | officers, our gallant Col. Fisber fell early fin the attack. Lt. Col. Lightfoot was | wounded in the calf of the leg, but never stopped although ou foot, as were all var field officers. Capt. Avery was shot in the | leg, but like a brave man as he is, never ‘left the field. Lt. W. P.

Avery and Mangum, marched right up to it with ceived a galling fire from the lett, when they were ordered to cease firing and fall back. Maj. Webb was resting on one of the pieces, facing the fire, and our men re- treated in good order, all the while deliv- ering their fire. THE FINAL RESULT. About sunset, the enemy were charged _ by our army, and put in disorder, and ran alry and artillery, for several miles, untl darkness stopped them. Our regiment aod Maj. Webb. | THE SPOILS. | “To the victors belong the spoils,” and | in this case they were enermous. Sixty but two, a large amount of small arms, a church full of knapsacks, blankets, ammu- nition, haversacks, dc., with which our men are abundantly supplied. THE PRISONERS. Some twelve or fifteen hundred prison- | ers were taken, and a large number of of- | ficers. They were sent off to Richmond “yesterday, and there was a long train of | them, a coach filled with tbe tive looking | Yankee officers that will not lead men | | against the Southsoon again, | THE LOSS, Our loss was considerable, though I do | ' not know how many we had killed and ' wounded—though very considerable, for, it could not have been otherwise, fighting from sunrise until dark. Though our boss is vot near as great as we at first supposed. {The loss of the enemy is enormous, for ‘they received our deadly shots with a | bravery worthier of a better cause. THE FIELD AFIER THE BATTLE, I visited the field after the battle, and it was indeed a sickening, heart rending sight. | The enemy lay piled ap in heaps, and ‘horses strewn all along. I counted forty horses in a distance of fifty yards. Around | | Sherman’s batteries where our Regiment | fired, every horse and cannoneer was killed | and lay in one indiscriminate heap. All | over the battle field were strewed the dead and dying. Some had placed their arms under their heads as they went to their last sleep. and fists clenched as they wrestled in the agonies of death ; others wore the calm, | placid smile which should grace the face of a soldier dying in a glorious cause. In the little clump of cedars, the wounded | had crawled and died, and lay there in ghastly heaps. Our dead were buried with honors due them, and our wounded removed to differ- j The re- | | port that Ma).

You can possibly imagine my first teelings, though they were Yan kees, when I looked in upon them—some shot through the head, some with legs and arms broken, some through the stomach, and in fact all over; and hear their moan- ings and their groanings, and I thought “ds this war !” They, (the Yankees,) almost to a man, say if they had known bow things were down here with us, they never would have come. They say if they can get well, they will never come again unless to fight for us. Among the things which we have cap- ‘tured are 30,000 bandcuffs—think of that ——to manacle us with. These have been brought into camp, together with ail their arms aud munitions. The property in all taken from the en emy is estimated at one million and a half of dollars. From what I bave seen, it 1s doubtless so. The scoundrels got our password, our uniform, and had a Secession flag at the head of their ranks when they made their first deadly fire, that raked us the worst of all. The mails taken from the enemy and the letters written to their friends, show that they expected no trouble in taking us. It is curious to read their letters—in fact funny. John Daniel, noble, gallant boy, though shot down twice, rallied and fought like a man. He was sbot the third and fourth time, but fought the battle through, and /and is now doing well—very well. All, all fought like men and heroes. the Lincolnites. The Lynchdarg Republican of ‘Thursday last says: | From a friend who reached here last evening just from Manassas, we learn that a citizen of Alexandria had succeeded in gettieg to General Beauregard’s headquarters.

Washington city is represented as a perfect bedlam, and it is said that the soldiers have got to fighting amoung themsel ves. FROM LOUISVILLE, K Y. LOUISVILLE, July 25. Via Fortress Monroe, we learn that im- | portant movem®@nts from Old Point bave ' been postponed in consequence of the sad land unfortunate news of the Federal de- | feat. ‘ A Schooner from Norfolk heavily laden, probably with cannon, for Richmond, ran the blockade at Newport News, got up the James River, and only six shots were fired at hen ton, and there seemed to be a gener- sess ye your souls.” Let us beware of los. | ing confidence in the God to whom we | have committed our cause, because the battle seems to be at times disastrous to | our armies. Every war has its alterations | of victory aad failure. Perhaps it, is well | that even a vood cause go not farward too | smoothly and easily. Self-confidence, pre- | sumption, boasting and prayerlessness are | verv apt to attend uninterrupted success. | Let us examine our hearts and see how far we have been trusting in arm of flesh. It, is also well to consider that we are some- | what liable, perhaps, to a sort of self-right- | ecoushess as a people just now. Our cause is so obviously just, and the efforts of our | adversaries so palpably wicked, that we | may settle down into the potion that the | ffoly Ruler of all things will prevent us | from suffering. But while the cause is; good, are we personally holy? Do we | need uo discipline of chastisement? Is there no idol in the tent of Israel? Hum- bly and reverently we engaged, afew weeks ago, in fasting and prayer, and laid our interests before the God of nations, but do we tmaintain this ypirit? It is the privilege of the child of God to say, * My heart is fixed, [ will not fear evil | tidings.” Christian faith ougbt to keep | us fireu under reverses, and grateful in time | of victory. The mind stayed on God will | not be flushed with a self-vaunting pride | in times of triumph, nor debased with des- | pair in the hour of misfortune, Let us show ourselves ready for the wiil of God | —be it what it may. The entire land is open to the eyes of Him in whom we trust and uothing of good or evil can befall it without His permission, Are we sincerely willing that God manage this war as seem- eth good in His sight? And while it is our bounden duty to give our best ener: | gies to promote the end that seems right | to us, it is also our duty to avoid murmur- | ing if the methods of Divine Providence | are in apparent conflict with our plans.— | The end we desire we doubt not in this war will be achieved. But many things | in the process of reaching it which we wight call, in our ignorance, evil, may ve good, while if our immediate plans in some instances were successful, ulti- “Unwholesome weeds take root with precious | flowers.” and evils may be involved in seeming suc- cesses sometimes. The enemy who par- tially succeeds against a good cause may | thereby only the more surely be led to conduet that shall result in his overthrow, | “ Our indiscretion sometiines serve as well,” while our wisdom is but foolishness with God.

They can- net be carried, under our laws, as merchan- dise to supply subscribers or the regular trade, except through the mails or by ex- press or other chartered companies, on the payment of the regular rates of postage. The object of our legislation was to de- clare what should be mailable matter, and to require postage to be paid on such mat- ter, so as to secure a sufficiency of revenue to render the Post-Office Department self- supporting. If the law beso construed as to allow the transmission and delivery of papers by express companies or others, to subscribers or dealers at points other than the place of publication, at a cost less than the regular rates of postage, it will at once be seen that the Departinent would Jose much of its revenues; and publishers, availing themselves of such modes of trans- mission, would secure such an advantage over others sending their papers by mail as to injure the circulation of the latter or drive them to the same means of transinis- sion. And the result would be that the express companies would become the rivals of the Post-Oftice Dpartment, and deprive it of a large amount of its ley itimate rev- enues, and to that extent defeat the object had in view by Congress of making the Department self sustainiug. This reason— ing does not apply, however, to books of a nermanent character, other than periodicals sent in Loxes or packages to merchants and dealers. Very respectfully yours, (Signed) JOHN H.

Are we also spiritually prepared to suffer? That some of us sball lose our loved ones in battle or on the march, is unquestionable. We must be ready to en- dure the hour of affliction. Before the rights of the South shall be admitted and our independence acknowledged, we shall have to lay many of our young and aoble on the altar of ourcountry. This is asad task and a great trial to Christian faith, and yet by the grace of God we will say, ) Let us cultivate the spirit of self-denial—endure | hardness as good soldiers, and be ready to enter the “furnace of fire” at the bidding ot the Ail-wise and merciful God.

The propusition of Mr. Caskig, of Rich- mond, in the Banker’s Convention, that all the Banks of the Confederate States shall reccive each others notes as currency, and that each institution shall limit the amount of ils issues to its capital stock, strikes us ay one of the most iuportant thal has been made in that Convention. It is certain that such a tueasure would be producuve of more convenience and advantage te the public thau almost any that could be de vised. We are not prepared to say what trouble the measure would occasion lo the Banks themselves, proposition provides that all balances arts- ig between them shall be liquidated 1 ‘Treasury uotes, we do vol apprehend that the theouvenience could be very great.

But the cost of the exchanye is charged of course to the publie, avd amounts to an iutmedse suin of mouey. While the public loses this heavy “shave,” the Bauks do not gain iis ers, who devote themselves to the business of dealing in uncurrent notes.

At 10 45, Gen. Schenck led his column, headed by the First and Second Ohio and New York, within a few bundred feet of a masked battery of six guos, They waited ull our men got up cluse, and then open- | vd ou them, finny i rapid succession,— feu men were kilied and wounded, beloug- ng to the New York Second Regimeut, and also four iu the Second Ohio Regi: ment, by the premature discharge of our own muskets iu their bands. A retreat was ordered, aud our men fell) back.— peheuck tailed to rally his coluinn in any order. The Olno aud New York men scattered through the woods in pursuit of avelter and Water.

About 3 o'clock p.m. their batteries opet- ed on us; every ball was well fired ; the first fell am front of the battenes, and the yext one took off the heads of two men, a few yards below us. Orders wiven for the men to he down, and let the were now palls pass over, and just as the order was ! viven, avother one swept over our heads, and ploughed the fields a few steps in our Our battery did pvt fire a gun.— Lhe enemy Were not to be seen, owing lo Jense woods between thera aud us, Our heavy siege gun was lying to the right, disabled by the carnage being broken downs the balls flew faster and faster, and Leal. the batteries were apparently being brought | ClOsery About 4 p.m., a report from man to man that General Cameron's brother, Co- tonel of the Seventy ninth, was shot thro’ the breast by a cannon bali, and instantly killed, Lieut. Col. Elliott, of the Seventy-ninth, rode toward his regiment, having been af- ter reinforcements, when a cannon ball cut . . | lis horse’s head off, aud threw him dowa, | bruising him) so that he could bardly es- | cape. All the stragylers now commenced oy run toward Centerville, and the cassions, abulanees and suttlens’ wagons were order: ed to be taken back at once toward Cen- terville. The batteries were ordered around to cover our retreat, and keep the rebels fromm cutting us from Centerville, which was: about three miles in our rear, and where ve had about four or five thousand of a) reserve force the batteries wheeled off | “id took up the road, and were retreating in gaod order, when, about half a mile out, © oue of the gan catriages was upset : rs ’ evn A portion of Sherman’s and Carlisle’s were left in the road-side, the gunners cut- | ung the traces and running their borses. Vins put the infantry ina perfect panic ; (hey broke ranks iudiscritminately and com- enced to run—knapsacks, haversacks, tus, cartridge boxes, hats and everything , solu throwu ia all directions. The meu were parched for water, and were falling every direcuon, Officers were equally pane stricken with the privates, aud in vaitr we endeavored to stop the retreat. Charles Ogden, George he Smith, Sher- it Harper, Russell Errett, of Pittsburg, heoryed our men rot to retrext, and plead: 1 with tears for them to go back and get ‘ol. Cameron’s body, we took muskets ind threatened to shoot down if they did bot; but we might as well have plead with ‘he winds to cease blowing. The clouds o dust were now perfectly suffocating. — The enemy appeared 10 sight, firing their Suns, the balls raining upon us thick. Kinerging from the valley, we saw the re- porter of the World, with the standard of the Massachusetts Fifth, waving it over him, and pleading for the men to rally around him; but it was in vain: the heeded him not. Ap officer asked the prt- We called | vil-ge of riding behind him. It was gran- ‘ted, and before they had yonea 100 yards, | a shot from the thicket struck the officer in | .

DEEP RIVER COAL.—As the | coal of the Deep River region is now about to be brought into notice, It the head, and he reeled off. Mr. Sted-|it is worth, that after our army were vic- may not he inappropriate to make man wrappe »standard, and gz -! tori re dete ] ank ice one i i pped up the standard, and gallop- | torious, we were defeated by a flank move-| gone explanations concerning if, and ‘ed about a mile aliead, and afterwards suc i ceeded ip tallying a large force. Our friends had now all left, and the | troops were flying, and at the cry that the cavalry were riding them down and butch- ering all, we started for Centreville. In the edge of the woods, we noticed Mr, Villard, of the New York Herald, trying ; | to pacity the men, telling them it was only a panic. He was tnounted, but could not | take any passengers. Our thirst was now | painful, the dust filling our nostrils ull we could scarcely get breath. Finding no bead-way could be made on foot, and be- ing liable to be shot or hewn down mo- mnentarily, we made for a horse we heard ; rushing through the woods, and caught him; he bad a shot throueh him in the flank, | aud was bleeding profusely, and had no | saddle or bridle. We mounted him, and clinging to his mane, made for the road again leading to Ceutreville. { \ \ | Here the road was strewn with wrecks re wayuns, provisions, muskets, blankets, ammunition, and everything the men could divest. themselves of. ‘The ground was full. he fields in all directiuns were full. The fire of the enemy was keptup in the | rear. Part of Sherman's battery breaking | down, the men cut the traces and fled.--- | We should Judge that ten thousand guns jand rifles were lost on the way, while the | exited buxes, bayonets, sabre bayonets \ About a | vile from Centreville, an attempt was made fto rally them, but with little success. A | few thousand were stopped, but many with- lout weapons, On the high hill-top at Centreville, a column of infantry was seen, with their gleaming bavonets, ; and swords were innumerable. On the top the artillery were also drawn up, prepared to fire. The Garibaldians, Einstein's and Blenk- er’s regiments, were drawn up at the foot of the till, and escaping men ordered to fall in. Loud cheering was done and the rallying cry given, but it was of little or no use—men had no officers when they did halt, and so they kept on retreating.— 1 Water! water!” was the cry. | y. “Give me | | water, or [ll sink,” was heard from all i sides. Nota drop was to be had fit to | drink, The wells were all drained, and | the clouds of dust filled the air at every | point. We gotin the rear of a negro hut, and there secured water thick with filth, | but it was the best to be had. A number of buildings were used for hospitals, and on every side cries were made for surgeons, All the inhabitants nearly had fled from Centreville, expecting it to be stormed by | j the rebels. Guards were stationed at the few wells not dry, to allow no water ex— | ‘cept to the wounded and sick. A house | ou the top of the hill had been burnt the | previous night, and what few men eould | be induced to work were engaged in throw- ing up an embankment, some eight feet | thick, out of the ruins and of dirt; it was | ‘about two hundred feet square. Orders | | were now circulated for the men to gather | Pat their last camping ground, around Cen- i trevilles it was heeded by some, but oth- ers neglected it, and kept up the stampede. No provisions were to be had, and the men were all hungry, having had nothing to eat since two o'clock a. m., and but little orno water, Atsix and a half o’clock p. w., when we started for Washington, the troops were coming in, and no one of any coolness or self possession supposed our forces would retreat from Centreville. | The firing of the enemy was kept upon our rear with artillery, and their cavalry rode through and through, cutting and slashing with perfect tiendishness. We heard of numbers of the most infamous aud damning acts ever committed by sav- age wibes. Our wounded and dead are nearly allon the battle-field, in the bands of the enemy; such as could crawl or walk were trying to get away, and such pitable spectacles were seen as nade our heart sick ; but we could not help them; the few ambulances were off early with the wounded, and never returned, ~ We saw a vumber lying on the roadside, with medicine chests and started bandages. The immense baggage train, consisting of some six hundred or a thousand wagons, lined the road for a mile and a half on the Warrenton road toward Buall Run, two miles back of Centreville, When the panic started, the wagons tried to fall back on Centreville, but a number were upset and broken down; the drivers would imme- diately leave them and escape on the hore- es. Others would throw out their load of provisions and stores, and fill up with sol- diers and muskets; the body of the lug: | ment of troops brought up from Manassas | Junction, and who attacked Schenck’s and Tyler's unprotected rear. Had this been amply Pe and reinforcements turn ed back the flank movement, we could have kept up our advantage, and drove them 6 the Junction, although they out- numbered us, and had ‘every advantage arising from choosing their position and fortifying themselves, and their thorough knowledge of the country and its moun- tainous character giving them every na tural advantage, : Col. Miles were sent with despatches ‘from Gen. Scott, while he was tying in| | Centreville, in the hottest of the fight, for Gen. McDowell, which he had orders to deliver immediately. He atonee, without making any attempt to do so, said if Gen. Scott wanted to get his head blown off let hin earry them himself; he would not do | so, aud they never went. We left Centreville with) the cheering | pews that General Manstield, with arullery and an immense force, was coming up to turn the rebels back. Abuut a mile East ‘of Centreville we met the First New Jer- sey, with their Colonel riding at their bead, and his staff, pleading for the men to re: i ftrh sis drummer corps were playing \ Yankee Doodle,” and their colors were flyin; the men keptcheering all the time, aud urying one another to return; they out with their forced ‘Touey were were nearly worn mareh from Vienna.

A Northern Congressman at the Bat- tle of Bulls Run.—Mr, Richardson, a member of Congress from Illinois, who was . atthe fight at Bull's Run, has written a letter to the Baltimore Sun, giving an ac count of the affair, He says that the ac tion was commenced by General Tyler, of Connecticut, at balt past one o'clock, on Thursday—tbat the Michigan, Maine and ' Wisconsin regiments stood their ground bravely, while the New York Twelfeh and Massachusetts regiments run with all their might, throwing away their arms, knap- sacks, and, in fact, everything that impe- ded their progress. The men say that their officers lack courage, and were the first to “take the back. track.” that the only regiment who could be relved on in their greatest emergency were com posed of foreagners—the New York 69th (Irish) and the 79th (Scoteh.) The writer gives it as bis opinion that Manassas cannot be taken with 50.000 , men in two months, and that the North has been greatly deceived not only in the numbers and discipline of the Southern. | ers, but in their fighting qualities — rush- ing, as they did, into battle with a shout, which rose above the rour of the cannon, whilst their artillery was served in unsur- passed style. One ball fell directly amidst , a group of Congressinen, amongst whom was Owen Lovejoy, which caused a ludic rous scampering and dodging behind trees very unbecoming the dignitaries, One re- markable feature which impressed iself on the minds of the Congressmen during their route to the scene of action, was the ab- sence of all the male population capable of bearing arms. ‘The few whom they saw were decrepit old inen and women, whose eves fairly flashed fire at the sight of the Yankee soldiers.

At Ore Iill, ten miles North of Deep River, a furnace is being put up, and will be at work in about two weeks. The ore at this place is very snperior, and was used during the revolution.

[ Fuyetteville Observer. CAPTURE OF A BRIG AND CARGO. We learn that the brig Jno. Welsh, bonnd from Trinidad de Cuba, for Falmouth, Eng., for orders, was cap- tured by the privateer Jeff Davis, off the banks of Newfoundland, on the 16th of July, with a cargo con- sisting of 273 hhds., 54 tierces and 28 barneis Muscovado sugar, and 436 boxes clarified do. She was placed in possession of a prize crew, who took her into a Southern port. The Captain and prize crew arrived here this morning, and will, we learn, wake arrangements for the disposal of her cargo. The Captain states that the Jeff Davis came out of Charleston on the 28th of June and ran the block- | ade, and had, previous to the cap- ture of the Jolin Welsh, boarded two other eessels, one of which proved to bea vessel from Maryland, but had instructions, it appears, from if met by a privateer. The other was a Yankee craft, which bad pre- vious to her being boarded, changed her paper, bat as there is bo decely- | ing the boysof the Jeff Davis she Was taken, and a prize crew placed on board.

Apart from the distressing an¢ gloomy aspect it would give to our streets and to our churches, amid the great cause for rejoicing whiel the Almighty has vouchsafed to us by a victory almost unparalelled there is another very strong reason for not adopting the habiliments o mourning. Many famihes who have lost a dear relative cannot well af ford in these times to incur the ex pense of nourning suits, at the great ly increased cost of them, even i. possible to obtain them at any price. The heart may feel as deeply as tho’ it beat under a colored vestment. Another consideration may very properiy be suggested, in the fae: that the loss of a father, ason, a hue: band ora brother, however poignan: the sorrow it may carry tothe hearts of the bereaved, is, under the cir- cumstances of the preseut war, D+ cause for that bitterness of mourn- ing which attends the ordinary dis- pensations of providence, becanse the gloom is brightened by the glo- ry in the discharge of the holiest ob- ligation of duty. Anprew Jonnson.—This notori- ous traitor, who now misrepresents ‘Tennessee in the Rutnp Congress, made a speech a few days since on the joint resolution to approve and confirm certain acts of Lincoxn, for suppressing insurrection and rebell- ion. . In the course of his remarks, as we find them reported in a North ern paper, he contended that Linconn had a perfect right to violate the Constitution, for the laws of the ijand, (Yankee land,) were not regar- ded by the South.

His postoffice is unknown, and there fore no steps can be taken in regard to his remains. Any information respecting him, can be obtained by addressing Dr. O. F. Covon of this city.

A REVIEW OF THE PAST, The annexed article which we clip from the Louisville (Ky.) Courier of the 3d of July, reviews the past so minutely yet briefly, but ‘ucidly, we beg leave to direct to it the special attention of the reader, With mingled feelings of joy and sorrow, with mingled smiles and tears, we read the accounts that have reached us of the first great battle fought in the second war of Inde- pendence. Our heart sinks within us as we think of the field of carnage and blood, of the thou- sands of brave fellows stiff and stark where they fell, of the widely scattered homes where there is mouruing and weeping and wailing for loved ones now still in death; and in an- guish of spirit we curse the madness and wick- edness and obstinacy and stubborn prid? and upholy ambition of the President and his Cabinet and Supporters, who have thrust this war on us, and brought sorrow and suffering and ruin on the land, and humiliaticn and dis- grace ou the American character, rather than to surrender one ioto of power they claimed to possess, or agree to acknowledge and re- spect the constitutional mghts of the minority. This war was not of the seeking of the South —it was madly and wickedly thrust upon the Confederate States by the Administration and its friends—it was the legitiinate and inevita- ble result of the “hair-brained and ruinous bglicy ” adopted by Mr. Lincoln, and sustain- ed and upheld by “the enemies of the coun- try,” who directed him; and upon his head and upon their heads will rest die responsibil- ity, and against them will the blood of the slaughtered thousands who sleep the sleep of death at Manassas, cry out forever. At the date of Mr. Lincoln's inauguration, he found commissioners from the Confederate States Government awaiting his accession to power, to propose negotiations for a peaceful solution of the questions in controversy be- tween the sections. At the request of the Secretary of State, they delayed a formal communication until the 12th of March, when Messrs. Forsythe and Crawford addressed a letter to Mr. Seward, in which they said: “With a view to aspeedy adjnstment of all ents = apenas = ee = aoe rulers, may convince them of the impossibili- ty of subjugating free peoples, and may lead ee to Yecognize the independence of the new Republic, and so to restore peace to our unhappy country. AMBULANCES. An ambulance 18 a moving hospital at- tached to any army for the purpose of rendering immediate assistance tu sick or wounded soldiers, the reader to have a description of the It will perhaps interest the battle of Manassas : The body is fifty inches, wide, and is di- vided into Lwo cumparuvents, each one en- tered by means of a door at the rear, The driver sits outside, entirely away froin the sufferer, and is protected from inclement weather by an adjustable calash top. The ambulance has four steel springs resting on the flexible hickory shafts, and the bed on which the patient lies is also supported by four other steel springs, to which are at- tached small wheels tu facilitate the move- ment in and out of a wounded soldier, without his rising, The bed and mattress is a decidedly ingenious arrangement, and should be seen to be fully understoud. Kither end can be raised at any elevation desirable, made into a good pillow in an Instant, A small trap-door in the centre of the bed, worked by means of a spring and bolt, affords a convenience to the sut ferer that can easity be appreciated.

States overtures for the opening of negotia-- tions, assuring the yovernment of the United States that the President, Congress and people of the Confederate States earnestly desire a peace- ful solution of these great questions, This overture for a peaceful settlement was indignantly and scorntully rejected. ‘The Com- missioners themselves were denied even the courtesy of an official interview. Aud fur- ther attempts thiongh Judge Campbell to open up negotiations for a peaceful settlement fail- ed. About that time, but a little later, Mr. Ste- phens, the Vice President of the Confederate States, in a public speech, which was publish- ed in the North and in the South said: Our object is peace, nut only with the North, but with the world. All matters: re- lating to the pablic property, public liabilities of the Union when we were members of it, | we are ready and willing to adjust and settle, upon the principles of right, equality and good faith.” In his message to Congress on the 23th of April, President Davis reiterated these sent- ments, saying: “We protest solemnly, iu the face of man- kind, that we desire peace at any sacrifice, save of honor, “To independence we seck nO Conquest, Lo aggrandizement, vo cessiou of any kind troc the States with which we have lately confed- erated. All we ask is to be let alone—that those who never held power over us shall not now attempt onr subjugation by arins. Tis we will, we must resist, to the direst extremi- | ty. “The moment that this pretension is abund oned, the sword will drop from our grasp, and we shull be ready to enter into treaties of ami- | ty and commerce that cunnot but be mutually beneficial.” But the efforts of Southern statesmen to se- cure a peaceable adjustinent of the difficulties between the sections were in vain:—the au- thorities at Washington were determined to subjugate the South unless they would submit to the government built up at Washington | instead of the comstitutional Republic of their fathers. Seventy-five thousand first, and the tens of other thousands, of soldiers, were call- ed into the field, and the dovs of war were | turned loose to ravuge the country and lay waste whole States if it should prove necessa- ry to crush out what they persisted in termiug a rebellion. The Confederate States had no alternative: —they could not be slaves; they must fight, They saw the storm; and prepured to meet ering for their invasion; and they made ready to repulse them. They could have taken Washington City within twenty days after the proclamation of war was issued by Mr. Lincoln; but they preferred to act only on the defensive. The Administration prepared for the inva- sion of Virginia with great deliberation. ‘Tne largest and best equipped army ever seen in America was got ready. They chose their own point of attack. They selected their own time to fizht. The result is seen in our telegraphic columns this morning. The yrand army which was to march to Richmond without halting is no more! The sons of the South, fighting not for spoil, nor for gain, nor for conquest, rallied around their chosen leaders in defense of their proper ty, their homes, their wives and little ones, their honor, their God-given rights as Ameri- | cans, and their liberties, and the great God who ruleth and guideth in all things smote their enemies before them and blessed them with a great victory.

Proposed Increase of the Army.—lIt is understood in official circles that the Secre- tary of War the Hon.L.Pope Walker, has reccommended to Covgress ap addi- tion to the Southern Army of about three hundred and fifty regiments,or such a num- ber as,added to the force already organ- ized,will make an agyregrate of five hun- died and sixty regiments,Estimating each regiment at a thousand men,this would give a force of five hundred and sixty thous- and men,rauk aod tile.The white popu- lation of the Confederate States being in round numbers,five mntiion six hundred ‘thousand souls,the proposed army would amount to just leu per cent,of the whole, or one soldier to every ten white people. We have the practicable demonstration in various parts of Virgiuia,of the perfect feasibility of sparing ten per cent.of the white population tor the war,Richmond Peters- Pittsylvania,Albernarle,Augusta,Tazewell Washington,Patrick,Aimberst,and as many as a down others in the State,have exceded this ratio.Exceptin the disaffect- ed region of the Northwest,there is not a county in Virginia that either has not furnished,or will not furnish by volunteer- ing,the full amoant of this quota to the |Contedrrate ranks.——Archmond Anqutrer, FROM GEN,WISE'S COMMAND, A bearer of despatches for the War De- partment from Gen Wise's command,in the Kanawha Valley reports that Gen Wise had evacuated Charleston six hours in advance of its occupation by Gen.Cox, with between fifteen and twenty Uousand Federal troops.Our force numbered about 3,000 men,and retreated tn good order, |saving all its stores,equippage and ord- nance.Gen,Wise fell back in the direc- tion of Lewisburg,burning the bridge over |in the despot’s face Charleston Meretry. the Gauley river,He had undoubtedly made guod his retreat,and eluded the pur- Phe enemy.He will occupy one “lt shall be discharged forthwith,to the |of the strong mountain passesa few miles nd that they may epter such newwie beyond the river whore he will await the iia Provided further,that the Gov,ab errival of reinfdlcements.-Lywehburg Re- ‘2\0 tender sueh volunteers by regiments|prdlicen. |before God. ‘God in pious ejaculation;let the fartner Confederacy inay join,w'thout inconven-| ietice,and doubtless with the Receptance of Grod exhibit in a mannerthe most beaud ful and sublime,the troly Christian char-| acter of our courtey !The following is the | propos:tion referred to: Prayer Proprosep.—A distinguished | Profissor in one of our Universities pro-| poses,through a Geuryia paper,that at set apart for praver by each individual in the Confederate States,or iu Stutes,whieh | sy inpathize with the Southern Confederacy, There may be no meeting for praver at, any particular place,but let each one for| hiuself wherever be tay be at one o'clock | spend a httle while in suppheation to the | Almighty,Let the merchant retire for a tomenut from his counting-room or if this be not possible let him lift up bis heart to stop his plough in the furrow;let the| inechanic stay his hand from labor¢let the physician pause a moment on his mission let the student rest from his toil;let the mother lay ber babe in the cradle;let the busy house-wife saspend her domestic cares; let every man,whatever bis cating or pur- suits,suspend them;let all business halt, and the whole land be still,In that mo- ment of quiet,in very tid day wheo still- ness is 80 unusual,when it will be then all | the more impressive let every praying soul | remember his country and its defenders It would be best,if possible,| to retire for the moment,to some private |place,and on bended knees give oral ut.| terance to the desires of the heart.But if| this cannot be done,the silent prarer may| 1 be sent up to God as we walk the street,| or pursue ourjourney or even iv the midst,chase and sale in the larve bitics of| of the whirl and din of business life.Thus | shall every heart be engaged,und every| ‘soul come to the rescue;thus shall all the| devout of the land be brought near each | ‘not permitted to return home,an order other,for “Though sundered far,by faith they meet, Around one common mercy seat.”:| INSURORDINATION AMONG THE Fepenat!

C.,complain of the bad conduct of this Lieutenant at that place while oo bis way to Raleigh in charge of seme Northern prisoners.The proceedings of a public meeting are published in the Journal,from which we learn that when the Rev.Mr. Maynard and Mr.J.B.Winston,of Frank- linton,entered the car at that place tur the purpose,we suppose,of seeing the prison- ers,Lieut.Todd ordered them off.In response lo a remark of Rev.Mr,Maynard that he was very deaf and did not lear the order at first or he would have gotten off the platform,Todd stepped up to him, and after a few words bad passed,struck Mr.Maynard in the face.When told by bystanders that Mr.Maynard was a Minis- ter of the Gospel and a true Southern man, Todd said he did not believe it and did not care a damn,and otherwise behaved badly.The resolutions passed by the citi- zeus of Frauklinton say that Lieut,Todd’s conduct was outrageous,profane and cow- ardly,and the fact that he is a brother-in- Jaw of Abe Lincoln justifies them in regard: ing him with suspicion,A yn was or- dered to be forwarded to the Secretary of War and all Southern newspapers were requested to publish.—:Char.Demoerat. ing is from the Lewes (Del.)correspon— dence of the Philadelphia Enquirer,July 26th.We now have the reason why the Federal Congress made an appropriation to arm the “loyal”citizens of Delaware: The Secessionists are very violent bere just now.A number of excursionists from Dover,calling themselves the “Peace Par- ty,”came ashore yesterday beaded by Mr. Ridgely,the Secretary of State.Early in the day Ridgely cheered lustily for Jeff. Vavis,Beauregard &Co.,entreating others of our citizens to fall in with his crew. They remained on shore all day,Ridgley ja the meantime,becoming beastily intox- ieated. The citizens net and quelled the traitors for atime,but last night,after being rein- forced,they again assembled on the bank of the creck,and yelled like savages for the Confederate States. FROM RICHMOND. The State department (says the Richmond Kraminer of the 3d inst.)has,we under- stand,bern maturing,for some time past, a code of martime Law,or the suggestions | for one,to be acted upon by Congress.—| As the basis for a code of this nature,the | action of Congress’has already,we believe,| by a distinct resolution in its secret sesion,| adopted a construction of the treaty of Paris | which is both explanatory and intended as | the text for future legislation. We have reason to believe that Congress on yesterday,passed a bill for «large in— crease of the army,and that it was sent to the Vresident yesterday ‘afternoon,and awaits his signature to bevome a law.— Its provisions are,of course secret until Congress shall otherwise order.—Charlotte Bulletin. CAN IT BE TRUE, The Richmond correspondent of the Charlestown Courier says : “T wrote you that the enemy,when they came to Manassas to bury their dead,slain in the battle of the 19th,commenced en- trenching themselves.‘They formed there| entrenchments of human bodies;took their dead comrades,and piling them one | on the other,dug a trench and threw the, dirt up over their bodies to form a breast-| work,[am not sure that itis wicked to relate anything so horrible,and adanit that | a civilized man was guilty of it,but it is true,notwithstanding.” Atrocities of the Yunkee Jnvaders.— The Editor of the Lewisburg (Va.)“Chron- icle,(Mr.S.J.Warrenton.)writing to itis paper from Laurel hil,in Barbour coun:| ty,Savs: “The invaders are perpetrating upon| the loyal citizens about Phillippi enornai-| ties of the most execrable character.Not content with seizing and appropriating to, their own use or destroying any and every | kind of private property which may fallin | their way,the monsters have been hunt: ing married females from bouse to house, for the gratification of their brutal lusts.| Mr.Warren says that these charges against | the enemy are proven to be true,by un- impeachable witnesses.” Strange Sounds.—Some time ago we had occasion to notice the fact that sounds similar to the discharge of heavy artillery were heard in various parts of this section, especially along the Catawba River. Jar sounds were heard at Morganton and Concord week before jiast.The days on which these noises were heard were clear and bright,and it is well known that no canpon were fired in fifty miles of the places.And old naval officer who heard the sounds at Morganton,informs us that it was very much like the successive reports of cannon.What was sit,and who ean| explain the mystery?—Char.Democrate.| Sion |ture and sell into Cuba or South America, think they were intended to be used on lof these Southern men. ‘Jvoked out from the windows of the white ‘doubt it? ‘old General Scott had dehberately deter ia surtable remedy for this revolution ;and |that these bandculls and the rope they tor every wan who would not instantly vision The Watchman.

This passed the revision of the War De- partment,of course.Towards the close of the despatch,Mr.Davis,says:"Z’he buttle was muinly fought on our left.”Well, yesterday morning we published,from the Richmond Anguirer,the text of the same despatch,by which it appears that,imme- diately after the words above quoted,Mr. Davis added,©several miles from our field- Works.”‘Vhe War Departinent struck out these words,with the obvious and de-| ceptive purpose of concealing trom:the | peoply'of the North the fact that this bat- tle was won by the Southern troops ina tight not behind batteries or entrench- nents or fivld-works,but in the open field, man to man,gun to gun.

The indications of a peace reaction in the North are assuming a degree of prom.| juence which entitles thet lo some notice. We give below such as have very recently fallen under our notice.The New York, Journal of Commerce,the leading com. mereaal paper of that city,of a late date, bas the following significant article: REACTION IN PUBLIC SENTIMENT, Few of our readers,we suspect,ary fully aware of the reaction which has taken place tn the public sentiment of the North- erm States on the subject of our preseut In uearly every city, town aud uvighborhood from which wenativnaldifficulties. have Intelligence,there are accounts of a revoution ia Che pubhe mind,which must soot produce &pow erful reaction,and lead eXalblualiontu&lhe causes aid the probable cousequcuce of miure cateful Ito the wart.

This feeling,contrary,perbaps,to the gen eral impression,is stronger in the country than in than in the larae cities,and is)be coming so much developed that it must soon tind utterance in public expression,as well as in private conversation and action. From all sections of the country we hear of this growing sentiment for peace,and every day serves to lucrease and strengthen It has already become too strong tor suppres: sien,and if we do not mistake the “logic of events”will soon become the controlling sentiment of the country. it among the masses of the people. VIEWS OF ANOTHER NOKTHERN JOURNAL.

The New York Journal of Commerce, of a late date,has the following interesting and significant article; IMMENSE PEACK MEETING IN NEW JERSEY,| The people of New Jersey have taken ' ‘dish. appear that the opppsition to the farther prosecution of this war was daily increas- ing with the people.The following shows | that the reaction has begun there in earn-| eSta An immense and enthusiastic Demo-| cratic Peaca Meeting was beld at Schaal:| enberg,Bergen county,New Jersey,Tves-| day afternoon,July 30th.The meeting was called to order by N.A.Blauvelt,Esq.,| who nominated the Hon.Ralph Demarest | The meeting was addressed by Thomas |q oF Lawrence,Esq.and Thomas Dunn Eng The following resolutions were unan- imously adopted: Resolved,That as citizens of the State of New Jersey,a sovercionty always faith-| ful to the compact which she entered into with the other States,her peers,and which has always strictly sustained the Constitu- tion,we are loval to the General Govern:| ment to the fall extent of its limited and | specified powers,and devoted to that Un- ion which was founded oo the consent of its creators and ratified by the several States,its members.:i Resolved,That lovalty to the Union is only compatible with strict:fidelity to the Constitution,and that these who violate the previstons of the latter,even under the hypocritical pretence of preserving the for- ere enemies lo be coutronted aud Te. sisted.

EFFIGY.HORACE GREELEY Ht NG IN But the best sign of all is the following paragraph in the New York Day Book. The people are beginning to be aroused, popular sentiment when we see them. rising up against the real author of the war: Horace Greeley was,last evening,hung in effigy in Washington Square.The memarable white coat and hat were seen, this morning,suspended by a rope on one of the trees in the parade ground,The effigy remained there until 10 o’clock,A.

The London Post (Government organ,) makes the followoing remarks upon the act of the Confederate Cangress probibiting under heavy penalties,the exportation of cotton or of cotton yarn,“except through the seaports of the said Confederate States,” ae more especially upon the proviso: “nothing in this act shall be so corstrued as to prohibit exportation to Mexico through its coterminous frontier.” Now,as the Northern States are at peace with Mexico,they cannot,of course inter- fere with any exports that may be shipped from that country.Sull less can they blockade any Mexican port.‘The question of practicability of establishing a transit for cotton across the Mexican frontier is,there- fore,one of very great importance,aud inure especially to ourselves. Whether or not the contemplated cotton traffic through Mexico is likely to succeed, we are not prepared to say,‘Tampico,we believe is the nearest port to the American frontier,and the coute from thence through Texas to the month of the Missippi is long and difficult.Bat we know that in India cotton is still brought from the interior of the country by the most primidive modes of conveyence;and in the event of a pro- tracted struggle in Ametica,we have no doubt that a portion of the produce of the Southern States will find its way to Mex- ican ports,and from thence in neutral bot: Itis astonishing to what chanrels commerce will adapt itself when is interrupted,Napo- Jeon could march in triumph from the Tagus to the Vistula. toms to Europe. He overthrew,as lif by magic,the best appointed armies and the most ancicnt dynasties in Europe.He could make unumake what laws he chose,excepting only oue—the simple and and Veternal law of demand and supply. His famous Milan and Berlin decrees were nore injurious to his subjects than to his enemies.British commerce found its way the heart of his dominions in S]ite of CIN obstacle and ufimerieun cot- ton will find its way across the Atlantic in spite of all the navies in the world. Charlotte Bulletin. ito CONFEDERATE CONGRESS. The followoing acts were passed by the Congress of the Confederate Staces on Thursday last: A bill to be entitled an act further to provide for the public defence. Section 1.The Congress of the Confed- crate States of America do enact,That in order to provide additional forces to repel Invasion,maintain the rightful possession of the Confederate States of America and to secure the independence of the Confeder- ate States,the President be and he is hereby authorized to employ the militia,military, and naval forces of the Confederate States of America and to ask for and accept the services of any number of volunteers,not exceeding four hondred thousand,who nay offer their services,either as cavalry, mounted riflemen,artillery or infantry,in such proportion of these several arms as he nay deem expedient,to serve for a period of not less than twelve months,nor more than three years after they shall be muster- ed into service unless sooner discharged. Srcrion 2,That whenever the militia or volunteers are called and received into the service of the Confederate States,under the provisions of this act,they shall be organ- ived under the act of the sixth of Mareh, 1861,entitled “An act to provide for the public defence,”with the same pay and allowances of said act,and the same time tor the service of the militia. Section 3.Nothing in this act,shall be construed to extend to,or in anywise to al- ter any act heretofore passed,and author- izing the President to receive troops offer- ed cirectly to the Confedarate States for the war,or less tune. Arrest of a Spy.—We learn from the Recorder,that a genuine spy by the name of Lee,is now in jail at Fredericksburg.Tle has confessed to this fact,acknowledging himself in the pay of Capt.Dahlgreen of the Washington Navy yard,Le repre- sents himself to be a Campbellite preacher,and professes to be acting simply for pay.He ought to be swung,and the sooner the better. Pet.Lepre SS. ger”The Presbytery of CherokeeconvenedinthecityofDalton,Ga. on the 24th of July,and remained in session two days.‘The principal object of the session,which was ef- fected,was dissolving connection with the General Assembly of theUnitedBtates.—Pet,Aaprees, The most remarkable circumstance of the Revolution,which obtained the’Amer- ican independence,was its congepvatisiv. It contained ro element of vialenf reform ; it silenced no existing laws;and it pre- served the old civil and social institutions of its period.It was a revolution only in the sense of achange of Government. Such,in points of the most marked and emphatic similarity,is our Southern Rev- olution of to-day.It is conservative in all respects.‘The admivistration of our laws is uninterrupted;our old ideas and insti- tutions are yet permanent;and even the constitutional form of the old Government is adopted as the model of the new. Tix conservatism maintains,in all the excitements and ardours ofa great revolu- tion,our respect for the laws,our public virtue and our civil Jiberties.Our Presi- dent is no more a dictator in war than he could possibly bein peace.His authority is limited by the enfurced rigourof consti- tutional guards;and,while the Northern Presidentat Washington musters armies and establishes blockades of his own will, we have had,within the past few days,the spectacle of our Executive hesitating even to appoint a single supernumerary ofhicer to take care of un uncompleted Regiment without express authority from Congress. Our Government moves,under constitu tional restraints,a8 easily in the present time of war as in peace.Our Courts are ali open;our civil authorities are unsus- pended;the habeus corpus is still in exis- tence;and as a Most meet vindication of our attachment to constitutional liberty, this great writ of right is to-day being heard in one of the Courts of Richmond in behalf of men arrested as “traitors”to Virginia. Let us turn to the North to see the con- trast of the two different revolutions that are in progress on this continent—the one couservative,as the Revolution of ’76; the other,in its wild license and outrage,ex hibiting the madness of society,the loss of public virtue and the insanity of corrupt passions. If the present war has developedone fact more than another,and if among ite facts there is one of greater interest than all,it is this :the entire willingness of the North- ern people to surrender their constitutional liberties to any Government that will gratify their political passions. This peculiarity of the present condition of Northern society is more significantof its disintegration,its revolutionary destiny and its ruin than all the other circumstances and consequences of the war combined,in loss of trade,prostration of commerce and pov- erty and hunger of the people.Itis the corruption of the public virtue.The love of costitutional liberty is degraded to mere political hatreds.While these are grati- tied,the people are willing to surrender their liberties to their panderers at Washington, Without protest,without opposition,in si- Jent submission,or even in expressions stim ulating and encouraging the despot who strips them to still further excesses,they have seen every vestige of constitutional liberty swept away,while the greed of their Che FHatehman. —"SALISBURY,N,G: THURSDAY EVENING,AUGUST 15,1861. {Tie SUERIFF'S NOTICE!

A GOOD EXAMPLE. The Governor of Alabama has is- sued a proclamation calling upon the women of that State to see that the soldiers in the ficld do for winter clothing,by contributing a portion of theirown blankets,knit ting and making flannel shirts and drawers,and making up woolen uni- 'forms,recommending that they form “Soldiers’Aid Societies,”in each county,town and neighborhood,and vet and forward to him lists of all who can contribute any of the above articles. The suggestion cannot too soon be acted on in cther States as well as Alabama.Our soldiers must not be allowed to suffer by the cold, which will soon-be upon them.— There are not enough goods in the stores to be purchased;and the on- ly way to get them is that advised vy the Governor of Alabama.Let provide transportion for |the ladies,therefore,yo to Worn at in their knapsacks |once,and with a will.

Every commissary and contractor in the Northern army regards his regiment as his own,peculiar,private and especial basket of eels,a sort of gift of Providence forhisespecialskinningandprofit.About the result of the war,the rascals do not care a sixpence,as they are certain of making fortunes,it matters not who wins. From the admission of the Northern press, we imagine that the wholesale jobbing ang swindling now going on in the Yankeearmy,exceeds anything in a line of opera-tion which we have heretofore regarded as peculiar to the Russian and Chinese mili- tary service.The Northern soldiery are cheated in their pay,their food,their cloth- ing and in their munitions.They are vic timized in what they eat,drink and wear, by their rapacious contractors and commis- saries.All of the unserupulous demagogues who are responsible for this civil war,are strug- gling for the spoils like a jack of *cayots ” |or prairie wolves,over the carcase ofa dead butfalo.The brothers,fathers and cousins of the principal pillagers are all making hay while the sun shines.Cameron,the Secretary of War,is the leader,the North- ern papers say,of the “party thieves.”— CAMERON’song,sons-in-law and kith and kin to the remotest collateral,are bard at work swindling and filching. Even “Bos,”the promising hope of the Illinois Chimpanzee dynasty,has been taken from college,in order that he may do his full part in the general pillage of the Treasury.It is said by the Northern press that this youthful baboon is picking out sugar plums at the rate of $30,000 per annum,and skinning the Yankee soldiery with a dexterous rascality beyond his tender years.His parents are justly proud of his performances.So was Faarnof the “Art- |ful Dodger.” It is truly refreshing,now that we have cut loose from this race of selfish thieves and cowards,to see them for the first time devouring each other—forced to do so,as they can no longer prey upon the vicals of the South.—Richmond Hraminer. It is universally conceded that,but for /the opportune junction of the two com: mands of JoHnston and BEAUREGARD at Manassas,the result of the late battle would have been at least apocryphal.Hence to the brain that conceived tbe union of these forces is due in a great degree the chief credit of the day.Well-founded in- |formation ascribes this happy conception 'o the military sagacity of the General |BEAUREGARD,Perciving that it was quite impossible for his limited command to suc- cesstully oppose the advance of McDow- ELL’s overwhelming columns,he early in the week telegraphed both the President and General Jonnston,urging the union of forces as an absolute necessity.After some reflection Loth o!these eminent mili- tary tnen acceded to the suggestion,and the junction was effected as rapidly as cir- cumstances permitted.

From the Richmond Examiner, The Confederate Congress have in hand a bill which may try the strength and sta- bility of the new government more severe- ty than the armies or the navies of the United States.This bill imposes direct taxation on the people of the Coufedera- cy to pay the interest of the loans and meet the expenses of this war.A similar bill has been passed by the Congress of the United States,and it will,if enforced,| shiver that Government in pieces before| the year is ended, That a measure of direct taxation would | have a similar effect on the Southern or ganization,we do not yet believe.The | { Southern people are now well awakened| to the necessity of situation;they kaow that all’they have is staked on the success of their Government,and it 1s pos- sible that the majority will support any inconvenience and submit to any sacrifice to seoure it.Nevertheless,itis quite certain that the measure will create great dissatis- faction,violent unpopularity,some resist- ance,and wilt probably be repealed after the first attempt to enforce its provisions.

THE ALIEN ACT. The New Orleans Delta referring to the Proclamation of President Davis touching the alieus [Yankees,]from the Confederate States,who do not intend to comply with the law,says: “Under the provisions all citizens of the United States residing in the South,are to be expellled within forty days from a proclamation by the President,or to vive satisfactory proof of their intention to be: come citizens ofthe Confederate States,and at the same time to formally acknowledge the authority of the Confederate Govern- ment.We will not undertake to say who wil]be regarded as citizens of the United States,under the provisions of this act, until its precise terms are known,It is certain,however,that in more thar one place our population would bear a judicious purgation with beneficial results.We can- not affurd to tolerate enemics in our midst because,forsooth,they may have the dis- eretion to keep silent and to bear no arms in their bands.The man of Massachusetts, or the man of Kentucky living and per- haps thriving in our midst,hts no busi- ness at this time to be among us,if he al- Jows a reasonable suspicion to exist that be is not also cordiaily with us.” FIGHT OR STARVE, The poor foreigners in Yankee service, sion of the South have but one alternative to put before them : “Fight or starve| So they pardon their penitentiary con- viets on cundition that they sball fight the South.

To the Honorable the General AssemblyofNorthCarolina: It is the duty of the Executive at the | meeting of the General Assembly to lay before them a statement of the affairs of the State and make such suggestions as way aid them in their deliberations. Having so recently taken charge of this office,with an extraordinary pressure of business upon it,and with such limited op- portunities for preparing a statement of of this kind;[might well be excused from this duty.But the very great respect I have for the Legislature,and my earnest desire to secure their aid and co operation, prompt me to make this communication, however imperfect or unsatisfactory it may be.For the first time in the history of this State,we bave to deplore the death of a Governor.The Hon.Joh¥W.Ellis,late Governor of this State,died at the Red Sal- phur Springs,Virginia,on the 7th July last.‘This communication might afford an appropriate place fora tribute to his worth and merit;but his public and private vir- tures have but recently been canvassed through the State,aud their thorough en- dorsement by the people constitutes his highest reward while living,and a rich leg- acy to survive him. The great struggle which now rages throughout our country,excites the most intense interest at home and abroad;it is needless to argue to ourselves,or the world, of the justice ur propriety of our course.— We patiently yielded to every expedient, aod fistened to every promise in behalf of that Union,around which had so long clung our interest and dearest,affections.But suddenly the mask was raised,and we saw before us the sword of the tyrant,and hence- forth there was no hesitation in our course. An Extra Session of the Legislature im- mediately convened,and with no dissent— ing voice,submitted the issue to the peo ple in Convention,which unanimously passed the ordinance of separation and de— liverance,and that act has been sustained and ratitied by the people with an unanim— ity unparalleled in the history of the world. Men who but yesterday were fronting ‘each other in fierce and angry debate on this very issue,are to-day marshaled side by side in the same ranks—banded like brothers,and staking “their lives,their fortunes,and their sacred honor,”in the common cause. The unanimity of North Carolina in this great struggle,while it must ensure success, will embellish a pave in her bistory as bril- liant as the victory which achieves her in- dependence. Suddeuly thrown into this great strug— gle,without an army or the organization to support one,we find offered to us an ar—| my of volunteers,who bave come forward with brave hearts and willing handsto en- list in the cause of their country. To sustain their course and make it etfee tive in the field,the Legislature have voted ample powers to the Executive,and de- volved on those entrusted with the admin— istration of affairs a teartul responsibility. The Convention which assembled soon after,not foresceiny the increasing demand for troops,and disapproving of the provi— sions of the Legislature for raising and equipping vclunteers,repealed therm with— out providing a substitute. Under the influence of the action of the Convention,companies were disbanded, and a check was given to volunteers which was likely to prove injerious,These cir- cumstances,with a certainty of a call for nore troops,mduced me to vary somewhat from the policy prescribrd by the Conven— tion—a change which T think they them— selves would have sanctioned under the changed aspect of affairs.IT might safely ,»|say that the defence of the coast,and the| call for troops from Virginia,rendered it necessary. The Convention with ample powers from the people,repealed this law of the Legis— lature.Dnt they did not repeal or modity the power of legislating granted by the| Constitution to the General Assembly ;and as it was only a concurrent power exercised by the Convention,the General Assembly have still the same power to legislate’on that particular subject as before;and the Convention,making its repeal to take ef- fect only after the meeting of the Legisla— ture,seem to indicate a design or expecta— tion that something should be done.| must therefore,press it on your immediate| attention. In connection with the subject of volun-| teering,I will sugvest the propriety of) some regula‘ion whereby it may be equal ized among the several counties and among the different districts of the same county.Some counties and parts of other counties have already furnished more than their full quota,while others have been more tardy in their movements,and thus have not the envied privilege of serving their country. This could be done by selecting those counties which have furnished fewest vol- unteers,and pointing out the mode of en- rolling them from those counties.It is fair and equitable,that in each county a just proportion should be observed,be- tween those who remain to take care of the homes,and make provisions for the absent soldiers,and those who go forth to risk their all for the country. The expenditures of the State have been and continue to be very large.The great and purried demand for troopsin Virginiahasstrainedeverypointtoequipandsendthemforwardasrapidlyaspossible,and ic bas been tbe aim of the authorities to fur- nish our troops with every comfurt consist- ent with our means.Itwe bave not been entirely successful we bave at least been flattered with the compliment of sending the best equipped troops that have gone to Virginia,and we are taking every mnvans of continuing these comforts.‘The subject of blankets and winter clothes for troops bas occupied our attention,aud we are making efforts and appeals to accom: plish this necessary object;and medical aid for the sick and sutfering shall be ex- tended Ly every means in our power. I should like to communicate to your State,the state of the coast defences,and the plans for giving them sul more strength.Itis your right and duty to know these tacts,but fromm prudential con- siderations,|consider it best such infor mation should not be communicated in a public message.With your committees |invite a full and free couferenee,and, through them,hope to communicate all Information that may be desired. vy source of expense in the equipment of troops.Modern warfare has made a large dewand for cavalry and flying artillery, and the furnishing and equipping of horses exceeds all prudent calculations made for than we can incet them in justice to other brauches of defence.If the cavalry regi- ments —one authorized by the Legislature and the other by the Convention—are to be fully equipped,this Legislature must provide More means than we now have the coutrol of. quires guarding bas already drawn largely on our fund,but not larger than its im- meuse iuportance deserves 5 aud whatever amount of men and money it needs must be furnished.In some parts of the coast we have been untortunate in obtaining pro- per othcers and engineers,but better man- the | body the whole defence and armament of| the State,the force which has been sent| out,aud that which is still equipping in the | ‘turn off the great flood of Northern trade,| I will here call your attention to a hea-| the war,and runs up our expenses further The great length of coast that now re- lished two very important facts.First, tbat in our eonmercial relations we have become entirely dependent on the North for almost every aiticle that we use con- nected with machinery,merchandize,food and clothing,both the luxuries and neces- saries of life,including almost every article needed for our defence.The second and nore important fact is also now establish: ed,that we have the means and material for supplying all these wants within our own borders,Necessity 1s developing these resourcess and driving us to the use ol them. The continuance of this war and block- ade for two or there years may inflict much personal suffering,but it will surely ac complish our national and commercial 1n- dependence. If the war were tu terminate soon,our political rights might be secured,but trade would resume its o!d channels.Time alone will successfully divert the course of trade, bat when diverted jt becomes more difficult than ever to restore it.Once check and and Southern trade,and Southern capital will roll their strength together to estab-| lish Southern prosperity and independence.

Neither Massachusetts ‘in general, nor Boston in particular can hold a candle to New York in _rancorous bitterness. Such appears _to be the result of the Doctor’s ob 'servations, and the conclusion to which he has come is also aftirmed vy the experieuce of others. But the winter is coming on and the vast hordes of the unemployed and thriftless and characterless float- ing population of New York, whom “no charity can long keep relieved, will be threatening the property of /speculators, the storehouses of food and the repositories of clothing, with isack and confiscation.

Neer eee aaa RIVER. We are permitted to copy the following important letter from the Secretary of the Navy to Mr. Wright: CONFEDERATE STATES OK AMERICA, Navy DeparrMent, Ricumonp, August 19, 1861. Hon. C. G. Wright, House of Delegates, Raleigh, N.C. Sir: A free supply of Coal in your State, in connection with the present and future operations of a steam Navy, I re- gard as of very great injportance, and hence I observe with interest every indica tion connected with it. Will you be pleas ed advise me as to the prospect of com- pleting the Fayetteville and Coalfields Rail Road? The mineral wealth of your State and particularly of the Deep River coun- try, points to an early establishment of such great Work Shops as the defences of our Confederacy will demand, and I deep- ly regret that the céf~mon sense of the South, in years gone by, has not establish- ed them. I am, very respectfully, your obedient serv’t, S. R. MALLORY, Sec. Navy. This is another and emphatic indication that the struggle of those who have spent their time and means in the effort to de- velop this great interest, is about to be crowned with success. The Legislature of North Carolina cannot now fail to do any- thing —everything—to complete the open- ing of this wonderful mine of wealth, this vast store-house of army and navy, which “the common sense of the South,” look- ing anywhere else than at home, has not heretofore appreciated —indeed — scarcely now begins to appreciate.

It will repay perusal ; “T was in Boston when the news of the rout at Manassas was received. Never, in my life, have I witnessed such a scene as State street present- ed; the people wept, cursed and howled. Administration papers had led them to believe the rebels would as usual, beat a precipitate retreat on the appearance of Uncle Sam’s ‘Grand Army.’ Indeed, they really were ashamed of the South, believ- ing them a mass of cowardly scoun- drels. They could scarcely credit the news; bat, when every succeeding despatch only confirmed the pre- vious onec, announcing the total rout of the Federals, their countenances expressed the deep emotions perva- ding their breasts, and utterance was given to their feelings in the manner above written. I spent three weeks in the Eastern States, and from ac- tual observation do not believe it possible for Gen. Scott to raise the 400,000 men. The $400,000,000, I know, is not to be raised. I tell you, nine-tenths of those enlisting do so only to save themselves from star- vation. You may rely on this, for I have been among and talked with the people of seven States, and know whereof I write. Bull Ran wasa glorious day for the South. Praise be to God for it!” Tre New Organs Batrerina Ram.—The same parties who arrived at New York from the South, and give the information of Gen. Pillow’s movement, have also furnished the New York Commercial with the fol- ou its business, and the capital stock of all corporations shall be returned, and the tax paid by tho corporations thumoclves, and not by the individual stockholders, The term “merchandize” is designed to embrace all, goods, wares and merchandise held for sale, exeept agricultural products of the country. “Money at interest” is intended to include the principal sum of all money belonging to any person other than a bank upon Which interest is paid or to be paid by the debtor, as the same stands on the tirst day of October. The term “cattle, horses and mules” is intended to include lowing description of a novel im- plement of war inten ded to operate against the blockading fleet: At Algiers a formidable instru- ment of destruction is being prepar- ed, and was expected to be launched aboutthe 20th. The tug boat Enoch Train, built in Boston, and one of the most powerful tugs of her class, has been converted to a purpose ne- ver intended by her builder or by the gentleman whose name she bears, The upper portion of the boat has all such animals as are raised for sale, and been covered with railroad iron, and not such as are raised merely for food and | perfectly shielded from the attack of work on the plantation or farm where they are leld. The term “real estate” is inten- ded to include all lands and estates therein and all interests growing thereout, inclu- ding ferries, bridges, mines and the lke, aud in all cases the actual marketable val- us of the property is to be assessed. {Phe remainder of the act provides pen- ales for counterfeiting the Treasury notes aud bonds except the following :— Sic. 24.

At the bow | a ram hasbeen constructed. The bow /has been built out to the extent of ‘five feet, heavily framed with tim- |ber, and then covered with heavy wrought metal. At the extreme end a formidable ' mass of iron projects in the form of a knob. Beneath this knob and be- neath the surface of the water two strong grapples have been arranged | so fashioned that upon colliding with 'aship the claws will fasten into the side of the vessel and take a firm hold. Protected by these grapples _in @ manner not unlike an insect’s | lance or sting, there projects an au- ‘ger connected by means of shafting, | with an indepéndent machine on the boat. This instrument is intended to operate as follows: Upon the at- tachment of the grapples to the side of the attacked vessel, the auger will be set in rapid motion and bore its way into the side. When one hole has been forced through, the auger can be withdrawn, and by means of an independent axle, the position will be changed so as to operate upon an- other part of the ship, thus boring holes rapidly and large enongh to sink the vessel. The boat will have a crew of six men, who will be pro- tected beneath the iron roof, the pi- lot observing the direction through /a tube or telescope.

It is hardly necessa- ry I should say business in Statesville is . dull, that being the prevalent condition of commercial interests from Maine to Texas, from Minnesota to the Peninsula of Flori- da—every thing every where in our but ‘ peoently prosperous, driving country, at a desd atand-still, except in those things Y looking directly or indirectly to the deci- ‘gion of the terrible trial of strength and _ @ourage between the two great sections. I . found the same confident and determined : spirit of resistance now and forever all along : the road to this place in every crowd, large -or stall :—the same confident belief that God is guiding and sustaining our public affairs, and shielding and nerving our men in battle, that prevails among our people in Rowan ; and all keeping alive to the wel- fare of our friends in the camps, anxiously suggesting and proposing what should be done to alleviate the sick, and secure the comfort of all. The ladies, to their great praise be it said, ever sensitive and alive for the dear ones who have formed the home dircle, have had all the ardor of their more sensitive natures fully aroused, and are pre- paged for any amount of self-denial, labor and toil for the sake of our volunteers and the-enwse they are defending. I met with one here busily at work on garments for two sons in Virginia. I watched her ner- vous fingers as she plied the needle, and listened to her anxious recitals and patri- otic remarks. She being a fair representa- tive of her sex, there will never be any more union between the North and the South—never, never / “One thing trou- bles me,” she said—“it is the fear that some sort of a peace may be patched up by- which Northerners may obtain privi- leges in our country, which I hope may ne- | ver be allowed them. I could freely lay my two sons on the altar of my country, if that would secure to us complete and perpetual protection against the insidious apywoaches of the Yankee tribe, individu- neck, and the world a deal of trouble, by cutting the fellow’s head smack off at his shoulders.” He is the last of a race of “b’boys” that years ago flourished in this goodly town, renowned throughout the ad- jacent country for their quizzing propensi- ties, and for their many original, rich and racy pranks played off on presumptuous “ Professors ” venturing within their sphere for the purpose of astonishing the natives, and turning a penny by it. A large number of stockholders got on the train at Statesville, this morning, to at- tend the annual meeting of the Western North Carolina Railroad Company, held in this place to-day, where they arrived a little after 10 o’clock. The meeting was called to order at 11 o’clock, by Col. T. A. Allison, chairman. There was very little business done, because there was but little todo. The reports of the officers, election of four Directors and the appointment of a Committee of Finance for the next year, composed the business of the meeting.— The reports possessed no extraordinary in- terest. Operations having been suspended on the line West of Morganton in the Spring, the only work now progressing is that part East of it, consisting principally of repairs, and the completion of the track to Morganton, which it is hoped will be done withoutdelay. It is dependent, how- ever, on the payment by the State of the instalment withheld from this road in the Spring, which, I perceive by the procced- ings in the Legislature will probably be made. } of the Stockholders were 1e-clectc}; the The former directors on the part Finauce Committee of last year re-appoint- ‘ed, and Dr. Powell, of Catawba re-elected | President.

The people of North Car- olina showed their devotion to the old Un- ion by voting down in February the prop- osition to call a State Convention. Soon thereafter Lincolu’s proclamation and call | for troops, Wherewith to invade, and sub— jugate the South, produced an entire change of opinion, and a conviction op the minds of ninety-nine out of every hundred of the voters of North Carolina, that the time bad arrived when every consideration of honor, of liberty and of interest requir— ed that the State should dissolve her con— nection With the Government of the United | States. The Proclamation therefore of Gov. Etlis convening the Legislature for the purpose of having a Convention called, was received every where through the State with unmingled satisfaction, and the subsequent prompt action of the Legisla— ture In calling the Convention was heartily endorsed by every voter in the State, | Under these circumstances a Convention | was elected, and met. It was a body com. | posed, with a very tuw exceptious, of the ablest and best men in the State, and what ! did it do ? Why, ou the very first day of the session—the ever to be remembered 2th of May, 1861, it pronounced by a unanimous vote the disservance of the counection of North with the Federal Union, and this act: was received with acelainations of joy throughout the state, Here was presented a spectacle | calculated to produce the finest moral ef- fect through the conutry, and particularly on the North, whose people bad been tausht to believe, that there was a strong Tonon element in the South, and especially u North Carolina, Carolina North Carolina's pre vious history, character, aud geusraplical position added much to the wereht of this moral effect.

The recent victory over the Federal forces in Missouri fills the war party in the North (not yet recovered from the stun- uing buffet of Mannassas) with consterna- tion. The New York Herald, of the 14th, thus speculates as to what may follow: Where the next blow may be struck— whether in the neighborhood of Fortress Monroe or of the Upper Potomac against Banks, or against the force of Rosencranz, in Western Virginia, or at Washington —itself is impossibl. to say. Many saga- cious, well-informed miltary men hold that the latter will be the object of the rebels’ attention because of the great moral effect which its capture would produce throughout the New World and the Old.— ‘That they will make an onward movement In some direction within two or three weeks there is every reason to believe. In ad- dition to the reason assigned above, we may mention the significant fact that Beau- regard, notwithstanding the wagons captur- ed from our army, bas issued an order to collect all the wagons which can be ob- tained —the sure sign cf marching in force. And these indieations are strengthend by the closing words of the brief address of Johnston and Beauregard to the rebel army on the 28th of July, one week after the fight near Manassas. They say, in allusion to those who fell: “ We will hold the soil to which the dust of Washington is min- eled with the dust of our brothers.

Mr. Phillips is now absent in the South, and said to be an active Seces- sionist. Mrs. Phillips and her two beau- tiful and accomplished daughters, have redided here some time, and have not hes- itated to announce their full sympathy with the rebels. It is said they went so far as to attempt to illuminate their dwell- ing on the night of the Bull Run disaster, but were dissuaded from the rash act by their friends. They have repeatedly been cautioned against uttering their opinions against the government and disloyal senu- ments. I learn that they have often boldly ac- knowledged that they were in correspon- dence with Beauregard and other rebel Generals. The officers searched the house, and finding evidences to warrant it, sur rounded it. The order was given for a guard to be placed around it, and the in- mates to’ be held as prisoners. All persons who called were accosted to know what their business was,and who and what their names, if they brought letters or messages, &e.

A trunk was seized at the depot in this city addressed to Mrs. Gwin, It was open- ed, and found to contain a fot of gentle- men’s shirts. Some of them were sewed together, in one of which was found a map of all of our forutications on the Virgima side of the river. This was an important discovery, aud resulted in the immediate arrest of Mrs. Gwin. Mrs. Greenhow, a widow lady well known in this city, was also arrested by the provost guard of Brig, General Porter. Her Sceessivn proclivities bave long been the subject of popularconversation, Doubt- Jess thy charge against her is of being in treasonable correspondence with the coun- try'’s euemy's Dow in arms.

IMPORTANT MOVEMENTS ABOUT WASHINGTON, We have late Nother papers Balb- more dates to Saturday Jast—but the pressure of other important matter ex— cludes our usual summary of Northern news. The intilligence from Washington is stiring and important, and we make room for a full and compiled account of Our for- ces are witbio sight of Washington, and the Confederate colors can be seen by the enemy floating in the breeze : the inovements in that vicinity. Wasuincron, Aug, 29.—Matters near the Union ines on the Virginia side of the Potomac remain pretty much as they were yesterday, The enemy still continue to show themselves near our pickets, and oc- casionally tire at them. The enemy are pressing upon our lines in force, and are seizing upon every bill or wood that will cominand any portion of ourcamp. They evidently meditate some bold stroke. The Confederate camp fires can be seen from Georgetown Heights, near Fall's Church, about six miles from Fort Corcoran. The enemy have uot only re-established their old line of pickets, as befure the bat- tle of Buil Run, but have actually en- croacbed upon the territory formerly held by us, nearly one half mile nearer our line of fortifications. They now occupy several important strategetical points, upon which they are throwing up fortifications. The line of the enemy’s pickets covering our front on the Virginia side of the Potomac, commences on the Orange & Alexandria | Railrvad, running thence in au irregular course, taking advantave of all the natural lines of defense, across the Litthe River turnpike, between Cloud’s Mills and Ben- ton’s Tavern, to Bancroft’s Mills, at the junction of Ifunting Creek and the Colum- via Lurnpike. At this place the enemy have construc— tel a breastwork commanding the turu— pike in the direction of the Bailey’s Cross Roads. Proceeding from this point, over tilled fields and through beavy woods, the line of Confederate pickets coutinues to Munson’s Ifill, ove and a quarter miles from Bailey’s Cross Roads, on the Lees- burg turnpike. On this Inll the enemy are constructing works. ‘They bave uow a temporary battery of rifled cannon at the southerly face of the hill, from whieh, for the past few days, they have kept up a desultory fire on our troops at Bailey's Cross Itvads. Proceeding in a northwes terly direction from Munsou’s Hill, about one and a half miles, we reach a small mountain, the summit of which commands | the country fur four miles around, over— looking the famous Union works at Are: lington. This mountain, three days ayo, was within the easy grasp of our troops, but since that time has been seized by the Confederates, and upon it they are con- structing large fortifications. Tis point is of immense strategetical value to the Con- federates, in obstructing the mareh of our | who hold it till the end of the war if they troops into the interior of the State, should | find the musquitos aud the sand banks such a measure be adopted.

Wesley, Carlin’s, and proceeded to within balf g quarter of amie of Bull's Cross Roady which is withia two aod a balf miles ofthe Virginia end of the aque- duct at Georgetown. If so they were ac- tually within a mile avd three quarters of our works on Arlingtou Heights. Of all these Confederate maovernents Gen. McClellan is fully apprised, aod he will, po doubt, when the proper line ar- rives, pay his respects to the enemy. Neither the Southern public nor the gou! people of North Carolina have any reason to be disturbed by the news from Fon Latteras. This small and freshly constructed fortification of logs and sand, bearng twenty guns, without ammunition, | and manned by a tew huudred undiscip- lined men of the neighborhood, has been taker by a fleet of the most powerful war ) steamers in the world, carrying one hun dred of the heaviest cannon known 30 | modern warfare, and transporting a land | ‘force of four thousand disciplined troops. | |This exploit was worthy of Borer of!

Griegel, proceeded up the beach, capturing one brass field-piece and ahorse. The force then advanced to Fort Clark, which had been evacuated, but they were compelled to retire again owing to the shells fired from the fleet falling there- in, and they marched back to the place of landing, where they bivouacked for the night. Karly the next morning they again re- turned, and the fleet commenced bombard- ing the second fort, called Fort Hatterae, which soon after displayed the white flay and the fort was entered by Capt. Nixon, of the Union Coast Guard ; Lieut. Criegle, of Gen, Lutler’s statt, and Sergeant Dai- vege. They were eunducted to the tent of Com. Barron, the commander of the Confederate forces.

The Lincoln government has stop- ped the supply of Quinine for the South, hoping our soldiers will die more rapidly of disease. The inside bark of the Dogwood root is almost as good a tonic as quinine, and be- fore the latter came into use, * dog wood-bark tea” was a very common remedy with Southern people in the country, for the cure of ague and fe- ver, chills, &c. We were once car- ed of the old fashioned “shaking ague” by the use of this tea, in a short time. The dog-wood tree is universal at the Sonth, and fami.iar to all by the large white blossoms it bears in spring. Tons of the bark can be obtained in a few weeks and dried for use. Dig up the roots, wash, scrape off the outer bark, then peel the rhind from the wood. Bone-set, wild-cherry, snake-root, &e., are excellent tonics, and all to be obtained in the South in abuand- ance. The woods and fields teem with remedies to cure maladies, and millions of people have been made whole, without tasting one imported drug. Let the Government adver- tise for these remedies, if the import- ed kinds have become scarce or can- not be obtained, ineanwhile the peo- ple might furnish them as donations.

This affuir, so far as our forces were concerned, was characterized by the same determined resistance and manly courage which has been displayed in every éngagement had with the enemy siace the war begun. God has given our men wonderful nerve and courage in every battle yet fought; nor is the Hatteras af. fair an exception. The enemy had over 100 yuus of large size—6+ pounders ; and our men had 14 guns, 32 pounders. The enemy was 4,000 strong: we but 6 or 700! The ene- my stood off out of the reach of our guns, but within full range of their own heavy pieces. This enabled them to rain down upon our men and forts shot and shell with pertect impunity. Whenever they came in reach, the guns of the Fort peppered them well. And with this yreat dif- ference in men and guops, our garri- sons held out tur one day and a half / How heartily we wish that the mem- bers of the late Governor’s Military Board bad been under that terrible hail of shot and shell, passing, with our brave soldiers through that fiery ordeal. The people of North Caro- lina have no reproaches to utter against our forces at ILatteras, though it may cost them $50,000,000 in money and thousands of lives to re- cover the loss sustained there.

One of the letters has been sent to our Senator, Mr. Watker, in order that he may bring the affair before the Senate, and we hope that that conservative and dignified branch of our Legislature will take the matter in hand and deal with Mr. Tuomas in the most rigid manner, for if men who sit in high places are allowed to violate law, themselves being members of the body who make laws, we should not condemn those more humble in life who set law at defiance and aid the invaders of our soil.

It is an instructive study to investigate the philosophy, or rather the error of the Northern railway system. Like everythigig, else at the North, tt rests upon an, artificial and unnatural basis. Like everything else at the North, it was reared upon the false idea of petpetual union, aud the perpetu- al taxation of the South for the benefit of the so-called “free” States. Like every- thing else at the North, this stupendous railway system must tumble into ruins and remaiu & movutent of Nortbera folly. The striking feature of Northera railways is found in the fact that they are construct- ed to ran East and West. This longitu- dinal characteristic brings them into con- flict with the laws of nature and the natur- al wants of tride. Under the operation of free trade, the railroads of the North will be antagonized by the Mississippi riv- er and its tributaries on the one hand, and the Chesapeake ard tts ratlwuy tribute- res ow the other. ‘The Great Lakes, tind- lug their natural water outlet through the St. Lawrence, will act as it were io alliance with tie Southern system, and between tliese two iutlueaces the Atlauue termin: system of the vast wou bighways west of the Obiv wil be yrouud into powder. The history of Luaan civilization shows that cominicrce is always its handmaid, if not its leader, Commerce is simply the Interchauye of barter, and, if the term may be used, is dutitudtnal —that is, it cousists in the exchange of the products or industry latitude for those ot another. “To barter, exchange or sell Gue barrel of flour for avother of four, is uot rade. To exchange the wheat of Lllinois tor the uur of Obio is not trade. The exctiauge of the peoducts and indus- try of a wiven Jattude for tie products and industry of the sate latitude, though transformed iu shape by a manufacturing process, is uot trade, and never mnade the source of wealth. fiud that toe of one clime or one cau be Hence we culiest dawn of eihzation broke with i vetial beams upon the banks of those creat rivers and the coastwise sbores of those inland and outer seas run- ning North and South. Examine the Tap of the world, and witness bow the Crreat Architect bas marked out the course of Nature's hishways. All the great rivers of India, Asin proper and the Nile, which was the source of the Eyyptian evilization, ruo North and South; thus convecting different latitudes and furoishing the high- ways by which their mutual wants were supplied. In Europe we find (with one famous ex: ception) the natural order. The great rivers of Europe, ou the banks of which social order, based on trade, bas gradually developed into organized Gov- ermments, flow North of South. The Danube (the exception) flows East aad West, and is to-day the “line of barbarism” io the heart of the Old) World. This stream has been utilized to some extent by a canal which connects its waters with the Khive, thus giving uninterrupted water coumuaicauon trom the English chaunel to the Black sea inland through the centre of Europe. But the uselessness of the Danube, except as a through highway, has already been demonstrated, as well as its utler want of value to the world’s com- merce. The ambition of Russia has followed the southward flow of its great rivers. France seeks through the Zuez canal to realize the great latitudinal instinets of trade, and open a way by which the cot- tierce of the East may be turned into the Mediterranean Sea, Looking to North Aterica, we tind the same geographical and topograplical contiguration observa- ble in Europe. The great rivers run North and South. The mighty Mississippi prop- er, with its source at the base of the Rocky Mountains, in the same latitude as New- foundland, flows southward, marking a chauuel of 7.500 miles, receiving tributa- nes embracing the wealth of the continent, bringiug to the South even the, furs of the Hudson Kay Company, and bearing on Satlg Ms bosom the ice of north-land, at last, , amidst the sugar plantations of Louisiana | the utnatural and artificial organization of the North, is manifest even in our railway improvements. The roads in the Missis. sippi valley are made, put in Opposition, but tributary to, the great natural “Missis- sippt Kivek Grand Trenk.” The prom- | Inent feature of our railways is that they run from the sea board Northwaid or Southward, except in a few cases where a link is constructed to supply some through connection. Our roads do not violate but assist na— ture. They are built by the natural free- trade South, and work honourably in. uni- soo with nature and nature's highways. They infuse activity, lire and health into the different parts of the South. And as trade is but the interchange of barter, and as Virginia grows or makes what Louisi- ana aud Texas dv not aud cannot and should not make, and as our inter tropical districts produce what the wore Northern tier of the Confederate States cannot make, but must obtain, we have within ourselves a healthy basis of trade, founded in the interchange of products, the barter of the productions of one latitude fur those of another. And if tommorrow, the rest of the world was to relapse into barbarism, or disappear from existence, there would be no serious injury infl'cted on the South thereby. We have a trade within our- selves, larger than that of all Europe three hundred years ago. We possess a land embracing latitudes safficient. to Support | an internal commerce and a home eiviliza tion equal to that which bas been at any | time possessed by Egypt, Ludia or Europe. In these circumstances the statesman, the philosopler aud political econgmist find the source of our self sustaining wealth, By this beautiful and beueticent order of nature, which we have not violat- ed, we are tauyht to realize the fact that if a wall shouid be reared around the Con- | federate States, our people would still thrive, | our industry stil tloumsh, aud our internal trade continue in activity, Next im importance to King Corton is his foster brother, the Farner or Watkrs. Dlaced in alliance at last with free trade, and freed from the artificial bonds which | the late Union placed upon dis mighty flow, the Mississippi will now increase the eX pense and cost of competition by reduc— ing the rate of freight. ‘Lhere wall be many deltas added to the one at the Balize. All the railroads from the Atlantic and Gulf board converging towards the Missis— sippi valley, will be su many outlets of that trade, which is yet but in its infancy, When the yrass shall grow in Broadway aud the praine weeds choke up the arti fical lighways ot the West, opened at such cust in competion with the Mississippi, that mighty artery will continue to throb with steady and cterual pulsations, pouring along its tributaries, uatural and artificial, the life-blood of a healthy and vigourous commerce and industry founded in natural wants and an unrestricted competition. To write the bistury of the civilization of great rivers, would be tu record the bis— tory of mankind, of the arts, of scieuce, of law and Christianity, [tis a remarka- ble fact, strictly consistent with the civil— ized effect of unrestricted commercial in | tercourse between peoples, that i semi— civilized China the rivers ran east and west. An examination of the map shows that the hoes of communication and plil- osuphy of intercourse between the people ot the North and those of China, are exact- ly similar. Deprived of the impulse given to their industry aod foreign trade by the contrel of Southern productions, may not these Puritans, from natural causes, relapse into a simi—civilized condition, and exist under the dominion of military Mandarins ? In the presence of a superior race aod a superior civilization, is 1t vot highly proba— ble that the inbabitants of the Northwest will escape by emigration to the Vacitic shore, or, following the free trade current of the lakes and the St. Lawrence, seek safety aud prosperity throuuh annexation to Canada, thus allowing the British tern— torial wedge to be advanced ito the heart of the Aierican contincut between the Ohio and the Mississippi, with its point at Cairo? However we may speculate on such matters as these, let us not endanger our future peace, the strength of our Govern- went or the safety and order of our own pecuhar civilization, through a violation of the laws of nature, or the purposes of the Alimghty, by concilating any human pre- jadice.

The Yankee, prisoners, of whom thera, are now eugugh on, band tq form several of the “skeleton regiments” gp earnestly de- manded by Lincolo’s nnprineipled Secreta- ry of War, have increaged so rapidly siace the Bull y Run of, the “Grand Army,” as to require the almost undivided attention of an gnuire Depastipent, which their peces- sities Lave created, Upwards of 1400 are now confined jp the five tobacco warehous- es appropriated to their reception, and few are fully aware of the trouble, care and an- noyance which their safe keeping devolves upon those entrusted with that duty. The very limited nywber of nen allowed | for guard service at the several prisons, and ‘the natural carelessness of voluuteers in | their perloymance of the irksome duty ef osenuneis, have rendered absolutely uecessa- | ry the most stringent rules not merely for “the secure keeping of the prisoners, but tor | their comfort’ also. Perhaps no one of these rules has excited more unfavorable comment than that excluding al) idle vist- tors from the prisons; and yet it must ap- pear, upon the slightest reflection, that its adoptiou and enforcement is essential to a necessary discipline, and that fair dealing and duty requires that a general rule should be of general application. It is a singular fact, too, that the great mass of visitors to the prisons are attracted thither solely through a morbid curiosity, and the admissiea of such would be a veed- ‘less position of additional duties upon officers whose ume and energics are al- ready fully taxed. All circumstances con- sidered, the admirable manner in whieb General Winder bas acguitteo himself of an oberous aud thankless duty iuily entitles him to the credit which be bas already won io official circles. Notwithstanding the large number of prisoners, but two have as yet contrived to esuape; aad since the appointment of Capt. Gabbes, of Flonda, to We post of Provost Marshall, not an escape has been attempt- ed even. Under rules recently instituted by this vigilant officer, all newspapers are demed to the prisoners. The cottee and sugar with which they bave heretofore been liberally supplied, bas also been stopped, a measure rendered necessary by the scarcity of those articles. Jt is said that the pris- oners will shortly be removed into the in- terlor.— Richmond Eraminer.. MISCELLANEOUS.

Up- on the person of the prisoner were found a number of papers, &e., signed by General Scott, and by Cameron, the Yaukee Secre- tary of War, which prove him to have been, up to Aug. the 3st, aclerk ip the War De- Departmeot at Washington, and a confi- dential agent of the Lincoln Government.

PROSPECTS OF A GENERAL ACTION. From what can be learned in the camps, gathered at headquarters or concluded trom the events of the last few days, we are now equally and positively certain that no attack ys designed gn opr part on Arling ton Heights’ or titsindifately on the works of Washington. The occupation of Hali’s Hill bas-wot been: followed up by any— thing indicative of aa attack oo the Union works at Arlington. Agafo it is somewhat remarkable that the headquarters of Gens. Jolinston and Benuregard should still be continued at Manassas Junction, and not be moved to the advance. If the enemy should accept the gage of battle which we have offered persistently for nearly a week past, or we should be able to excite a geveral action by heavy skirmishing on our lives, the end of our advance movements will be suffictently gained. The battle, should such occur, will be fought on our advanced lines, and in @ position sufficiently advantageous lo be followed up into: Washington. The conclusion is positive and confirmed by every article of intelligence we can obtain, that no direct attack is at present designed upon the works of Washington, at least, not on the Southern side. EXTENT OF OUR LINES. The prisoners we capturned at [all's Hill—some six or seven—will be sent down to morrow. They say that the ene- my bas been preparing to give us battle, Skirmishing gull continues on our lines, and the shots of tbe pickets are heard pearly every morning before breakfast. © Our lines are very extensive, reaching from Leesburg to a point near Occoquan, just below Mount Vernon, along the entire ex- tent of which the fire of the pickets may be heard froin regiment to regiment. THE HAMPTON LEGION, The Hampton Legion is at one of the extreme points of the advance, and ina position in which some brilliant work may be expected from this gallant corps at any time. It is improper to anticipate the re- sults of an expedition of picked men of the legion which left yesterday, and from which news is now hourly expected. The legion is one of the best appointed corps in the whole army, and we are particularly indebted to its officers and members for some of the most grateful civilities of our tour through the camps. We hope they will understand that we owe them and are anxious to return them our best acknow- ledg ments. SICKNESS IN THE CAMPS—FORTITUDE OF OUR SOLDIERS, We must recur to the painful subject of sickness in our camps ; so distressingly is it manifested wherever we move. The average of deaths is not as large as might be expected ; but the nameless mounds of the graves of our beloved soldiers in the shadows of the woods, or on the broad hill sides of the valley of the Potomac, are not infrequently sad and touching specta- cles to the traveller. Do not imagine, however, that the sick - uess that overshadows our camps has et ther demoralized or depressed one jot the spirit of our noble army in its firmness, its patriotism, its virtues, and its devotion.— Those who are sick, but not too ill for ser- vue in the emergency of a battle, can even now scarcely be restrainad from the active duties and perils of the field. Never was the spirit of an army so remarkable—never have instances of such self-sacriticiny de vetion challenged the homage of all hearts @Pbhomanity.. When the expedition we have r@rred to of a detachment of Hampton's Region was moved off, nearly half of those oa the sick list of the Legion were entreat: fag permission to go with it, and many did go, pale aod emaciated with fever ver, their only anxiety being to meet aud engage the enemy. A spirit such as this is invincible by man, iavincible by the forces of nature itself, and must carry with it—we say it with reverence—the bless- isg and good providence of Almighty God. Our dear, noble army, whether falling by disease or by the enemy, let their fates be lovely to them in all the generosity and homage and reward, which human bearts can offer to courage, beauiful and manly and Heaven, as we are taught, sball give to the brave and the pure heroes of liberty, virtuous and just ! ‘Ho! soldiers to your gallant rest, Your truth and valour bearing ; The oravest are the tenderest, The loving are the daring.” THER HYGIENE OF THE CAMPS—SOLDIERS’ HOSPIT- ALs. Of the hygiene of our camps we may make a few suggestions, which seem to us to be prac- tical, although unprofessional. In the first place the uncleantiness and positive filth of the camps are subjects of a reproach, which we would be glad to avoid, but which truth re- quires to be administered. At Manassas, the whole atmosphere is impregnated with the vile and disgasting smells of the offal of the camps and of the carcasses of dead cattle lying about on the fields immediately on the line of the railroad. Then again the deficiency of the medical force is most glaring in the present emergen- cies of the camp disease. Each regiment is provided with only one surgeon and assistant, and it is not unusual for them to have two bun- dred or more cases of sickness to be visited, and perhaps prescribed for each day. Of course proper attention to all of the sick is a physical im- possibility under these conditions. r : f, The hospital tentstre Wanting too. rm-houdes age made to setye accummodations r the ae tare wholl yiineufficiemt fog the urpose, Muhdbdg b for Milew@rowtud the y areoc- cupied as hospitals, it not being unusua) for the regimental surgeon to have to go to the dis- tance of twelve or fifteen miles each day from his camp to visit his patients distributed over the country. In travelling along the Potomac we saw, in many parts, a few dreary, deserted looking tents, with asentinels pucing to and fro, a faded vivandiere, perhaps, and a few polilary figures, moving foo. tent to tent, or grouped under the trees. On approaching them we found them to be temporary hospitals fur the sick. “They” fooked sotitary and mournfal enough. THE FORT HATTERAS PRISONERS AT NEW YORK. We learn from the New York papers that on Wednesday the prisoners taken at Fort Hatteras were transferred from the frigate Minnesota to Fort Wood, on Bedloe’s Island, aud to Castle William, on Governor's Island. The Commercial of Wednesday afternoon gives the following account of the removal of the prisoners from the Minnesota : This morning, about 9 o'clock, the steam- boats Saturn and Sarah A. Stevens went off to the frigate for the purpose of taking the rebels to their prison home. At a few min- utes of 10 o'clock the embarkation commenc- ed, and a@ more interesting sight has seldom been witnessed on the waters of our bay. The roll of the company was called, and as each man answered to his game he passed over the side, down the gangway ladder, thence crossing the dock of a cual barge lying alongside, he stepped on board of the steamer. As fast as they came on board they were ordered to be seated on the alter part of the deck. Each man, as he came down, brought his traps with hitn. These consisted for the most part of blankets, old coats, and perhaps a few old shirts. Some men had small trunks, and many were provided with valises. The embarkation was pertormed in a very rapid manoer and without any accident, At this time a dozen of small boats had come off to the ship to see the process of em- barkation, and many of them contained la- dies. In their anxiety to get a good view of the prisoners, they crowded around the ship too closely to be either safe or lawtul, and the officers of the ship in vain tried to drive them away. At this juncture, Coxswain Nesbitt, of the harbour police, came off, aud soon kept the boats at a proper distance. About ten oclock the lines were off from the frigate, and the Steves Seaded down the bay with over three hundred privates of sev- eral companies on board. Lieutenants Frank- lin, of tae Minnesota, was in charge of the party, and was not accompanied by a single marine, or even a sailor. He wore bis side arms only. No noise or contusion was ap- parent, and everything was conducted with great regularity. On arriving at Bedloe’s Island the Stevens was secured to the dock, aud the prisoners on the forward deck landed in single file. On the dock a few regulars were drawn up, while a guard of the Fire Zouaves were pre- sent to escort the prisoners to their quarters in Fort Wood. As soon as the poruun on the after deck were landed, the prisoners were drawn up in line, the roll called, and all found correct. They were then marched | up to the fort. At last came Commodore Barron, who was dressed in uniform sitilar to that worn by our naval otlicers. He seemed to be in tolera- ble good spirits, and was earnestly engaged in Convereation with one of lis otlicers, In tact, the enure number of officers were look- ing remarkably well. This load of prisoners, numbering over three hundred, was placed on board in about forty minutes atter the embarkation began. It was conducted with no accident, save one or two clumsy telluws, who tell dowu the ygangway ladder. The vessel headed down the bay, but she soon altered her course, and after running up the East river for some distance, she turned her head and stood toward tie Government dock at Governor's Island, where she made fast and landed the prisoners. The privates were first landed and drawn up in |ine, and then the officers were taken on shore, pass- ing their men, so that each had an opportu- nity of seemg the other, They were then removed to Castle Willain, under a proper guard. t The Express says: s No com:nunication has been allowed with the prisoners, but it is understood trom othi- cers of the frigate that over 300 of the subal- terns and private soldiers, have decided that under no circumstances would they again re- sume service against the U, 8, Government. A dispatch was sent to Washington, asking Wsuch of the prisoners as manitested this loy- al disposition imight be liberated on taking the oath of allegiance ; the answer was in the negative, and orders were issued to keep the whole party close prisoners. POTISM. The Haltimore Hachange of Friday says: Yesterday morning the military police of the city were ordered to stup the sale of Cou- federate flags, badges and envelopes, atid also the likenesses of President Davis, Generals Beauregard, Lee, Johnston, and all persons citizens of the Contedcrate States. Accord- ingly, wherever any of these articles were of- tered for sale, the police visited the place and directed that they should be taken from the show cases and windows. A num- ber of persous retused to comply with the or- der, and several of them were arrested and taken to the police stauous. Mr. J. H. He- dian, No io: Balumore street, had exposed in his window pictures of President Davis and other Confederate He Generals. was visited by a vice-policeman and directed to | remove them. He replied that he would not, and if the officer desired to have them remov- ed he could take them from the window on his own responsibility. Instead of taking the pictures, the officer arrested Mr. Hedian and took him to the Central police station, where he was confined during the afternoon. Mr. Phillip Brown, whose stand is at the corner of Baltimore and Holiday streets, was also arrested and confined in the station-house for a similat reason. They were informed by Acting Deputy Marshal McPhail that the or- SL ae | deg forbidding the THE CROWNING ACT OF THE WASHINGTON | DES- | eale of the pictures and | | bafiges was from General Dix, and would be aiply carrégd out. They were releaged in de cae of the condition that the articles were not to be exposed for sale. James 8. Waters’ establishment was also visited, and be was compelled to take all Confederate pictures {rom the windows.— Henry Taylor had to pursue a sitnilar course; | and in fact, every establishment in the | city where any of the articles were offered for sale was compelled to remove them. One gentleman, whose store 1s on the corner of | McHenry and Fremont streets, had exposed | a pair of infant's socks, knit of white and red | yarn. He was compelled to remove therm | from the show case, the vice-policeman as- | serting that the colors were those of the Con- | federates. The matter, however, did not stop | here. Persons passing along the street who | had red-and-white colored neck-ties on were | compelled to remove them from their necks, | under a threat that if they retused they would be taken to the stauon-house. | | | All day the police were busily doing this | dirty work. Some of them felt that they were engaged in a low business, and in some few instances apologized for their conduct, | remarking that wantof bread alone, compell- | ed them to be the tools of their superiors. | The little boys on the street, who have been earning a living for their widowed mothers and destitute brothers and sisters, were stop- | ped and warned that if they continued to sell, the songs they would be arrested. The Sun says: A new style of cravat, red and white, call- ed the “Secession cravat,” and much in vogue with young men and lads just now, also falls under the ban, and a number of persons found wearing them were ordered to substitute somethigg else.

We have late intelligence from our army | in Western Virginia, giving the position of | its several divisiuns, which every day grows | wore critical. Since the battle at Cross Lanes General Floyd was waiting for supplies. In addi- tion to the 96 Yankee prisoners, with some Union men, brought down to Richinond a few days ago, the train ou Saturday brought down fifteen prisoners who had been cap- tured since the rout of the enemy at Cross Lanes. They were taken stragyling thro’ | the woods, where they had been lost in the | complete route and dispersion of Tyler's | troops while they were eating breakfast, | and at the first yun the Colonel, accompa: | nied by all his ticld officers, fled with the | utmost dispatch from the field. Col. Tyler barely escaped through the wings of our forces. | Gen. Floyd's position, at last accounts, | was the Gauley river, about one mile and a half beyond it. The enemy were in full force, under Gen, Cox, at Ganley’s Bridge. On the other side of the river Gen, Wise was strony posted in the vicinity of the Gauley road. He occupied Hawk's Nest, | which had been abandoned by the enemy | after a skirmish of pickets. Above the Kanawha and bevond its forks the enemy bad been outflanked by Gen, Chapman, who held his position with 2,000 militia. The enemy, under Gen, Cox, was thus sur- rounded by these three several divisions, and all bopes of his retreat cut off— the on- ly fear being that Losencrantz might yet make a junction with him, and thus re- verse the relative position of the two forces by cutting off Floyd’s command. The present erritical position of the two armies in the West is quite characteristic of the resources and expedients of strategy in which the campaign in this portion of the country has been almost exclusively conducted. A rapid and brilliant move— ment on one side or the other seems to fur— nish now the only means of terminating | the present complications.— Rich, Hrami- ner, 9th inst. | 3-47" \ day or two since the War Depart- ment made a call ou the Virginia authorities for all the field artillery which could be put at its disposal, within a lunited time, stating that the exigencies of the public service requir- | ed an immediate increase of that branch | of the army. The respouse of the Virginia | Chiet of Ordinance, to whom this requisition was referred, was prompt and highly satisfac- tory. He reported ten batteries nearly ready | for immediate duty, the most of them in| marching condition at the present tine. He | reported that between eight and ten more | | could be gotten ready for the field within a | 1 bnief period of time.

There is tremendous excitement, Syracuse, Sept. 5, P. M.—The Com- mittee on Resolutions reported a series of resolutions setting forth that the watchword of democracy was: “The Union must be preserved.” That the claim to relinquish State allegiance was unwarranted by the Constitution, and at war with its letter aud spirit; that Secession is revolution ; that the seizure by the seceding States of the forts and property of the Guverument, fol- lowed by privateering, precipitated the country into the present war; that itis the duty of the country to prosecute the war with all its power aud resources; and that it is the duty of the people to rally to its support, until the struggle ends with the tiiumplh of the Constitution and the resto- ‘ration of the Union; that we hold uext in guilt tu the faction in arms, the Nortbero agitators; that it was the duty of Congess to encourage loyal cilizens South, by ample guarantees of just and butorable conces- sions; that itis the duty of the Govern- ment, while putting down rebellion, to offer to the loyal people in the disaffected States a Convention of all the States, for a revi- sion and amendment of the Coostitutun ; that the democracy of this State regard any attempt to pervert this conflict into a | war for the emancipation of slaves, as fatal | wo all hopes of the restoration of the Umon; that we protest against the doctrine that any power except the Representatives of | throw overboard all her guns. the people can suspend the writ of nabeas | \ corpus, The resolutions also protest against the passport system and against Government establishing State police ; ayalust the as- sumption of the Government to repress the | dissemination of a free press by the refusal of mail facilities ; and, tinally, against the Presidenv’s doctrine that the States derive | their autbonty from the Federal Govern- ment. The last resolution concludes thus: That a Democratic victory in this State would be hardly less auspicious than the triumph of the Federal arms in the tield, and there fore we hold those trying to create dissen- /sion in the rauks of the Democracy not on- ly treasuonable to its principles, but disloyal to the country.

CLARK, & & ee ee AE SS TED eae ee PROCEEDINGS of the Senate of North Caroltna, honorably acguitting JOHN W. THOMAS. the Senator from Davidson, of certain char- ges preferred against him. The following is a statement of the charges brought against Jobn W. Thomas, Senator from Davidson county, in the Sen- ate of North Carolina, relative to his recent trip to New York, together with the action of the Senate thereon : Wauenaas, J. W. Thomas, a member of the Senate of North Carolina, has lately paid a visit to the city ot New York, and whereas, it is currently reported that the eaid Thomas repeatedly told, while on bis way there, that be bad in bis possession Union speeches made by himself, which would greatly facilitate his movements ; and whereas, it is further currently reported that the said Thomas, while in the said city of New York, purchased claims upon divers good citizens of North Carolina, and is now endeavoring to collect the same, which reports, if they he true, are giving aid and comfort to our eneinies ; Therefore. Be tt resolved, that a committee of three Senators be appoiuted to investigate the truth of said reports and make report there- of to the Senate, that the Senate may take such steps as to the Seoators may seem meet. Be it furhter Resolved, That the said committee shall inquire into the fact as to whether the said J. W. Thomas is now or has been since his retura, acting as agent for the collection or securing debts for any of the citizens of New York. Be it further Resolved, That the said committee shall have full power to send for persons and papers to facilitate their inves- tigations, and have power to examine per- sons on oath. On this resolution, the Speaker appoint- ed Messrs. Barringer, Eure and Dobson to constitute the committee, who after full in- vestigation, made the fullowing REPORT. “Immediately upon the appointment of the committee, Mr. Thomas proffered and has afforded us every facility fur the prose- cution of the inquiry, by furniahing letters, private memoranda and other papers which show the character and ubjrct of bis late visit to New York. From these sources the comunittee submit to the Senate the following statement of facts, which must be regarded as coming from the Seaator him- self: On the 23d of July last, Mr. Thomas left North Carolina for New York city, by the way of Louisville, Ky. Neither the time nor the occasion of his visit was concealed. His original design was, in connection with Messrs. M. L. Homes and R. J. Holmes, of Rowan county, to establish a commer- cial house in Louisville, fur the purpose of furnishing such supplies to the Confederate States, by that route, as their people might need during the preseat war. This design was, however, abandoned, upon reaching Louisville, and he proceeded tnmediately to New York. It is proper to remark here, before go- ing further with this statement, that Mr. Thomas started on his trip with but $245 in cash, which was intended to bear his | travelling and personal expenses. He al- | so took with him several thousand dollars of bank stuck held by various cit:sens of this State in the banks of New York.— These stocks were intrusted to him by the holders, with directions to sell them and account for the proceeds on hie return. It was rurther understood that he might use the cash realized from such gale, with a view ty e-complish his general object of supplying the Confederate State with such articles os be could purcbase and intro- duce in vivation of the blockade. Besides the cash aud stocks above referred to, be | says that such regiments as the 2nd had a check on a New York tirm for about | Vire Zuuave The check was drawu by his! partoers in the present adventure (ihe | Messrs. tlulines of Rowan county,) for the! vice whatever in the grand army: $10,006. proceods of 1 sale of cotton made by the firio for 'h-in, and shipped to New York just betore tie declaration of war. The Messrs. limes had pat the amount of check in the copartnership stock of the firm beiwer.; them and Mr. Thomas, and they were very auxious to get the funds out of the hands of the New York house. Mr. Tuoi ws repeats that the above named cash, banl. stuck and check, constituted all the moucy or source of money which he had on lis visit to New York. On ariiv.og in New York he executed bis directions in reference to the sale of the bank st .cks held by our citizeus, so far as he c ulc do so with advantage. Mean. while a1) portune chance presented its- self to incu in connection with avother worthy ci. :-u of this State, to purchase a veasel 411) ‘argo, with a view of running the blocwsus on our coast. Mr. Thomas embark«i in ‘nis enterprise with high hopes of syce.-s, i. particulars of which the comm: not deem necessary to relate. Bat be is that be put any money in the pu & t the vessel and cargo other than w! ss had realized from the sale of bank s: -aud held by our citizens, asabov - «1, The scheme ultimately failed, #1») 9, viterly abandoned by him, The cor. «+ the vessel and cargo, so far as). 3¢orcerned, was cancelled. In eonseq' g to the extreme hazard of brin- 1@, the money derived from th + wel: those owned by himsel: was deposited io cer- a TP A ES SET - tain banks of New York, as appears by certificate of deposit exhibited to the com- mittee by Mr. Thomas. Witb regard to the check on the New York firm above alluded to, it was present- ed fur payment, but with every disposition on the part of the firm to meet it, they were wholly unable to do so. Their trade baving been chiefly, if not entirely with the Confederate States, it bad been for several mouths almost completely cut off, and the bouse was trembling on the verge of suspension. After propusiug and re- jecting mutually several modes of paying the debt, the gentlemen composing the firm finally offered to place in the bands of Mr. Thomas, such Southern paper as they had or could procure in the city, out of which the check or debt could be paid, and the balance, if any, be accounted fur to them as soup as practicable. Where- upon, some $20,000 in notes and accounts on citizens of this State was transferred to Mr. Thomas, with the authority to collect the same and carry out the above agree— ment. He admits that the letters hereto attached, refer to claimns on citizens 80 as— signed to him. Le declares bis innocence of any purpose to violate any knowo law in this transaction. He never intended, and does not now intend to barrass or op— press the debtors referred to. He sought only to secure a just debt due frum the N. York house to himself and the Messrs. Holmes. He will cheerfully abide the de- cision of our Courts, under the Jaw of the land, on the liabilities of tha parties. He denies emphatically that be is now, nor bas been at any time acting as ayent to collect or secure avy debts due from our citizens to avy persons in New York, ex— cept ip the single instance and in the mar— ner bere set forth. As to the rumor that be had made Unien speeches, or carried his own Union speeches, delivered last winter, with him on his iate trip, he protests that it iy utterly uotrue, and as far as any such allegation is meant as an imputation upon bis loyalty to the Confederate States, he repels it with indignation. Upon this statemeut, which is uncontra- dicted by any evidence subinitted to the committee, we are unable to discover in the purposes of the Senator from Davidson, in making his late visit to the enemv’s coun try, orin his conduct while there, any thing which calls for censure or other action of the Senate; and the committee respectfully ask ty be discharged from the further con- sideration of the subject. (Signed) Vicror UC. Barringer, Ch’m. M. L. Eur, JosrrH Dosson, Committee. On motion of Mr. Ramsey, the report was unanimously adopted. On motion of Mr. Outlaw, the report was now recommitted to the committee, with a view to drawing up suitable resolu- tions exhonerating all censure from the Che Watchman. ‘SALISBURY, N.

Some of the officers cried with rage and were treated to groans. A United States Officer remonstra- ted with them, and was driven off, several swords being lunged at him. The men wished to ‘ thrash their of: ficers,’ and the officers ‘to have it out at once.’” The Express adds: “The 2d Fire Zouaves will do ve- ry little to redeem the credit of New York city or the New York Fire Department, so badly damaged by the Ist regiment of that name.

FROM AN OCCASIONAL CORRESOPNDENT. Racesou, N. C., Sept. 11, 1861. Mr. Bruner: The General Assembly bas been in session twenty seven days, dar- ing which time events of the most direful import have transpired upon our ows soil ; and yet, but little, very little, if any thing bas been done, that is really calculated to promote the public good. The House has at length perfected its amendments to the Stay Law and the Senate has concurred in them, and that law, whatever it may be, is one of the laws of the land. The old stay law hae been repealed. The House has also perfected its partu- tient throes upon the Mihtia bill and that bas been sent to the Senate, but it bas not yet been acted upou by that body. Bills dividing the State into Congressional and electoral districts have passed both branch- es, and a bill authorizing the treasurer to issue $800,000 in treasury votes, in various denominations from five cents upwards to five hundred dollars bas also passed —this is in addition to the $200,000 ordered to It is to be presumed bowever—for reasons to which | I] may advert before I close this Jeter, that be issued by the Convention. these treasury notes will uot be issued un- til March. Both Houses ballot several times every day for Coufederate State Senators. The following is the result of the only ballot had to-day. Whole number of votes cast in both House 134. 68, of which Mr. Dortch received 51, Avery 44, Person 39, Clingman 30, Outlaw 27, Davis 22, Grabam 20, Vance 18, Merri- mou 6, Osborne 2, Smith 2, Brown 6, Reid 1, Bragg 2, Dobson 1, E.

This wild race seems uulikely to end its ceaseless circle. | Necessary to a choice The old Union men, nearly all split their | tickets aud vote for one of their own sort, aud an old democrat.

A difference of | Opimon exists as to whether the ordinance of the Convention in respect to Ad valor- | em, is in force aud binding upon the Ley- islature or vot. The ordinance of the Couvention providing the mode of authen- licating the acts of the Convention sAVS that “the ordinances of the Convention having the effect of Laws” shall be in full toree &c. li is argued, per contra, that that the ordinances of the Convention hav- | ing the effect of Constitutions are not in force. It is asked then how is it that the: Constitution of the Confederate Goveru Ment 18 in force, aod not that of North Carolina ¢ The reply is, the Convention : refused to subinit the former to a vote of : the people, while no such refusal has been | expressed with regard to the latter: and a | Proposimon to submit the State Constitu- fon tom vote of the people, when the amendments to it shall have been com- pleted, remains among the unfinished busi- | Beas of the Convention, which bas only | taken a recess and has not adjourned sine | du. The Treasurer says the State taxes must be raised fifty per cent., and the finance committee have reported a bill, which it is thought will raise one million &f dollars next year. The bill is of a mixed nature. It taxes negroes and many ether articles according to value, while reported, have been arrested. It | ported that Benj. G. Howard, Peace candi- many specific taxes are laid on "privileges aod luxuries. Jt exempts $500 worth of property from taxation altogether, and taxes, everything else, horses, hogs, stock of all kinds, agricultural products, &e., &c., except farming utensils and some other articles, @What will be done with this bill I cannot tell. The democrats wish to avail themselves of the times, war times which ‘en Allie most excessive taxation of everything, @ tax the ducks, &., and to say “you see what ad valorem is, I told you sv.” The only expedient proposed is to fall back upon the old, unequal bill, and to supply the deficiency by issuing treasury notes. A difficulty however meets the Legislature right here. We are under the Provisional Constitntion and will be until next March. hat Constitution says “no State shall emit bills of credit.” A treas- ury note is a bill of credit and cannot be issued. What is to be done? It is yro- posed to cut the knot, erect a machine to make mouey and go it ina general jubi- lee. We shall see what we shall see. The House bill in relation to the reas- sembling of the Convention rests quietly in the Senate. That body bas refused to bonor it with an order of the day by a vote of 24to 11. It may not be forgot- ten, that a bill appropriating two millions of dollars for the coast defence has passed both branches. This is all, harmless work, however, At the session in May, and last winter also, acls were passed giving the Governor, in one case five millions, and in another, unlimited control of the treasury for this very purpose, and all the good the two million bill does, is that it looks lke something terrible is about to be done, simply to divert attention from the some- thing terrible that old Butler has done at Hatteras. Ol! it makes my heart Lleed to see how things go on. Mark Erwin can get $50,000 to arm and equip part of Wise’s legion io Virginia, while our own cilizens are turned empty away whes they beg for arms to defend the soil of their native State. Bott Houses have agreed to adjourn at6 P. M. on next Monday. Most of the important business is yet todo. Having done those things that should not have been done, thurse things that should be dene may not be done, but the Assembly may rescind the Jolot resolution to adjourn, and ayain pro- ceed as before or vice versa, who can tell?

Walker, will soon resign, and Adj't. Gen. S. Cooper will encceed him. The Federal | News from the Eastern Shore. — Who Is blame for the fall of Hatteras? The press in the State is speaking out pretty freely on this subject. The blame generally is thrown upon the Military ard. Some blame Geo'l Gwynn. The State Journal, to screen its favorites, those who have promoted it and made ito feast on the fat of the public crib, throws the blame orn the press. Editors and letter writers, it affirms, published to our enemies the weakness of our defences. Why were they weak? Tbe Military Board bad as— sured the Legislature and the Convention that they were strong and ample. Gov. Winslow, the Chairman, would Lave things his own way. General Gwynn, week after week, to our certain knowledge, informed the War Department at Raleiga, that the works at Hatteras were not strong enough to resist a vigorous attack, that more forces were indispensable with flying artillery, but his statements were thrown aside, his warn- ing unheeded. We exonerate him from all blame for this disaster, The blame rests upon the late Gov. and the Military Board, wnainly on the Lead of Warren Winslow. By bis neglect and party policy, the ene- tny has etlected a lodgment upon our coast, which gives him the key of Pamlico, Albe- marle and Core Sounds at least, and direct and unobstructed access to the shores of some of the richest counties in the State. Millious of property and thousands of lives are exposed to his incursions, It will re— quire a large force well disciplined and a fleet of gun boats of the best material, or a firstrate floating battery, to dislodge him. Or it will take thousands of men, and it may be millions of money, to guard the towns and coasts to which he las free ac— cess. It is useless tu try to conceal the fact, and almost wicked to make light of it, that the loss of Hatteras is a great loss. Washington Dispatch. WASHINGTON, N.C. There is a town of a clever population aud some commerce at the bead of Pamli- | co river, of the existence of which the au- thorities generally seem to be in blissful ig- | norance. Other towns in the State, but | lithe larger or even smaller, are the centres | of attraction, Troops are burried to their defeuse. Every preparation is made to save them from the fire and sword of the enemy ; but poor Washington is ignored, or her existence is not known. We do not complain that they are defer ded, but that we are neglected. lave the resources of the Goveruneut failed ¢ or are our officials inefhcient ? The former we know is not the case. We dislike exceedingly to find fault with any one, cr to arraign them for neglect of duty or inefficiency, but Wash- ington 1s neglected. The enemy might come, for all that some in authority are doing. But we are moving to be ready to | meet him. He shall not have Washington | without a struggle. Will Gen. Gatlin or | \ | Gov. Clark send us a few more men anda | | little mure grape {—/b, | HYDE COUNTY—FLAG OF TRUCE. No county on the waters accessible , through Hatteras Inlet is so much expesed | to the incursion and depredations of the! enemy as Hyde. Itis within 30 or 40 miles of the Fort—the enemy’s headquarters.— | Tudeed, Hatteras is a part of Hyde. Boats can cross at almost apy time and land at any point they may choose. The wealth , there will excite their thieving propensities ; and the number of slaves that could be run | off and sold in Cuba, would pay the entire expense of the expedition. Old Butler's heart leaps with fiendish pleasure at the prospect. A flag of truce was sent by the officer in command of the Fort to the citi- zens there on Friday last, informing them that they shall not be molested, if they will take the oath of allegiance to the Abolitien , Government, and aid, of course, the ivad lug army in conquering the State. We have this from a citizen just from there on a hurried trip to Raleigh for aid. And aid , | they must have and thatimmediately. A: | reciment is absolutely indispensible for its: ; defense. Aud also one, if not two compa nies of Rangers, and a battery of Aying ar- i tilery. The people there are waking eve- | ry possible means of defense. One com- | | pany of volunteers is already in the held. | |The militia are organizing. A company | of mounted men, we are informed, can be ! | raised and the horses furnished there. Will the authorities send forces there at once ? | It must be done, or the county is ruiued, | —Lb. Important Information from Hatteras, | We stop the press to wnnounce the follow- | ng! A gentleman in town, Who left: there fon Thursday last, gives us these facts. Colonel , Hawkins is n command—has 1,800 men and ! but few boats—cannot make an advance now —says he will be reinforced in two weeks | and then move. He gave the inhabitants ot | the Island the privilege of leaving or of tak-— ing the oath of allegiance to support Lincoln's | Government. All but five or six have taken the oath! Old Mr. Jennett, a former repre sentative, and several of the prominent inen are among them! <A company that had been organized and offered its services to the form- er Gove'r, and which Warren Winslow rejec- ted, has been accepted by Col. Hawkins, and ig now marshalled against us. Many of them | thoughttbat our government cared nothing for them, and would not protect them! Col H. | } | promises protection and to cary them awa on his veesel, if compelled to retreat, 89 me for the miserable management of the Military Board. The scouting, marauding parties beve bro- ken up the fnrniture, burnt the clothing, kill- ed the poultry and fat pigs of those who would not take the oath. Portsmouth and Oregon was taken posses- sion of by the evemy up to that time. This information is perfectly reliable.— Jb. CEDAR ISLAND. We have received a communication from Cedar Island, informing us that the inhabi- tants there are very much excited, and some- What alarmed at the near approach of the Yankees. Their condition is rather exposed. The writer asks for aid, and declares it to be the determination of all to stand their ground, and to a man resist the invasion of the foe.— They have excellent ducking guns, and will send some of Lincoln's thieving myrmidons to some place where they will not want to go, if they shall attempt a marauding expedition into that quarter. We admire their spunk. THE GREEN TEA AGAIN, Selby Spencer, Esq., of Lake Comfort, Hyde county, has presented to us some more of the green tea which he has been success- ful in growing. The seed was given toa neighbor of Mr. Spencer's by an English Cap- tain some years ago. Mr. S. procured some, and has succeded very well in cultivating it. The past year he planted about the 10th of an acre and gathered ten or twelve bushels. This experiment, it scems, demonstrates that green tea—the veritable China tea—can be successfully grown and matured in the latitude of North Carolina. This is, there- fore, an invaluable discovery. Let it be tried in every part of the State. We suppose that seed can be procured of Mr. Spencer. We will send small packages of the leaf—the tea— to any editor in the Beate if he will signify to us a desire for it, and prepay the postage. The tea is excellent. Try it.—Jb. Bric H. C. Brooxs.—Ths vessel, which be- longed to Daniel Reid, Esq., of this place, and loaded with cot.on and spirits of turpentine to go to Liverpool, England, and which was taken at Hatteras when the fort capitulated, | has been taken to New York. Quite a valu- able prize for the abolitionists. Vessel and | cargo were worth $65.000. Mr. Reid not only lost his vessel and cargo, but provisions on board, and all his clothing, &.

The most intense anxiety prevails among the Union residents, on account of the with- drawal of a large number of the Northern troops, and the most’ of them have packed up, ready to leave fur Yankeedom at the shortest pos- sible notice. In Braxton County, every tory has been shot by his neighbor, and in several other eoun- lies, the citizens devoted to the Con- federate cause are doing good service in the same manner, More than one hundred thonsand persons were committed to prison in Haugland and Wales during the year just completed.

That the amount of cash now on hand is tall, is $113,419.72. How much of the residue of the said proposed loan will be probably realized is of course to a great extent a matter of conjecture; but] will give all the light I have upon the subject.

LEATHER IN THE SOUTH.

We referred, «1 yesterday, to the intelligence recei\ed here of an ad- vance movement of General Lx against the enemy in Western Vir- ginia. From considerations of pru- dence, no matter how remote, we forbear to give the particulars of thia movement. The general order published by Guaviallke to his troops, in connec- tion with this advance movement, wag received yesterday. It might be improper to priot any of ite de- Tilo mt- thie-tirtre: —<—- = In convection with the intelli- gence of thie movement on the part of Gen. Leg, the telegraph brings news of an action on last Tuesday between Gen. Floyd’s brigade and Rosencranz’s command, in the vi- cinity of Sammersville. It would seem from this, on first considera- tion, that the relative position of the two forces bas changed, and tbat Lee’s advance would probably be to. intercept the enemy, or to attack hin in hie rear. At last accounts, Gen. Lee was at the Valley Moun- tain. It is not known exactly what Ro- aencranz’s force is. Some weeks ago while at Laurel Hiil, his foree was reported, on the best and most di- ,rect information that could be ob- tained of it, at 25.000 men. It is proper, however, to explain that the action of Rosecranz, on the Ganley line, does not necessarily imply the withdrawal of the forces which have been heretofore reported as confronting Lee on the Cheat Mountain frontier. At last accounts, these forces were under the com- mand of Gen. Reynolds. Resen- cranz is, technically, the chief in command of the Federal Army in Western Virginia, and his headquar- ters properly at Clarksburg. Peace on the Indian Frontier. Iutelligince has been received here that Commissioner Pixe has settled the terms of a Convention between the Reserve Indians and a number ot bands of Camanches, in the State of Texas, by which the lat- ter lave ayreed to come in and set- tle upon the Reserves. The Com- missioner visited the frontier with an escort of Creek and Seminole wonnted volunteers. This measure of the Commission- er is one of great interest with re- spect to the resturation of peace on the Texas frontier. In the exercise of the power vested in him, Com- missioner Prxe has stipulated that all the Texas troops shall be with- drawn and their places supplied by companies of Choctaw and Chicka- saw troops, and has given advice of this to the Governor of Texas. The Confederate States know the cost of an Indian war. The lives of our people must far outweigh in val- ue those of the few ludians that from tine to time we succeed in killing at iminense cost. Peace onthe Indian frontier was never more desirable than itis now, when all our men, ineans and energy are needed for the great struggle in which we are enyaged for the maintenance of our liberties and hoaour. Audactous Highway Robbery.— About two o'clock yesterday afteruoon a gentle- man named James K. Broderick, while proceeding down Main street, was accosted in the vicinity of 17th street by a soldier named George Black, who requested to be told the time of day. Mr. Broderick drew his watch from his pocket with the inten- tion of replying to the inquiry, when it was snatched from his hand by Black, who immediately fled up Main street. The alarm was given, and attracting the atten- tion of officers Bibb and Blankinship, they pursued the thief, and, after a loug and arduous chase, succeeded in overhauling and arresting him, The scoundrels now infesting our city appear to be increasing in audacity ; and if our citizens should be thrown upon their own resources of self- protection, ita8 more than probable that we should soon be called to record some very summary punishment inflicted upon these ruffians.— Richmond Hraminer. ; Sa tem ey ANOTHER LETTER FROM MR.

Now, it strikes an outsider that if ra Gnited States Government was angry with Great Britain for placing the Confederated States army on the fvoting of bvlligerents, “and if it hws always maintained that the troops of the Confederate States army, so called, are rebels. the visit of the heir: to the throne of) l’rance, minus one in the present imperial successiog, attended by a United States General and esgort to the camp of the rebels and to the Generals in command of them, with the sanction of the United States Government, and the return of the party to the Coited States lines, is one of the most extraordinary cares that las ever been permitted to occur by any Government in the world.

Netcuporty.— Our Charleston exchan- ges give the pleasing jotelligence that the Cap tain-General of Cuba, under a procia- mation of the Queen of Spain, 0° August 17, has ordered the vessels of the Confed- eraté States engaged in legitimate com- merce, to be entered and cleared on the same footitig as those of the United States. ‘We are pleased to se* that thi just step towards recognition is taken bs a power whose essential interests are identical with our own. We are largely interested in the rich fields of Cuba, and they particular ly so in a reciprocal trado, which they tind of great importance. In connection with this news, we find the following : - A private letter has heen received from Car!

Let me make a suggestion, The Gyvernmept allows twepty-one dollaas to each man every six months tor clothing. It is paid in advance, when they have the money. Let the ditterent counties, from which our Regiment comes, unite to make some arrangement by which they can draw this money and expend it for the soldiers. There may be « small deficicucy, but the counties will not Lesitate to supply it, Let me take another suggesuon, The first thing we want is stout flannel shirts ana overcoats. Let ine make a third sugyes- tion. Dent let the counties undertake this thing unless they commit it to the hands of men who will attesd to it.” The chief suggestion here sade seems ty vs one of great: practical value. Why not every county at once proceed to act up- on it. Here are $21, pledged by the Gov- ernment to each soldier for clothing; if any county has furnished 1000 men, Sire nre $21,000, balf y carly commutation for clothing, “As the Journal says, “let the | county get the assiznment of this sum from the several companies, and get from the Confedersta Goversinent bouds or stock to the am. nant.” and. without waiting to re- alize on these bor Is, at once provide all that toe omen need. PAI that the counties are asked to do is to advance the necessary articles io their troops, nat gvve them; advance them io time to prevent sickness or death from the want of them. And if the patriotism and public spirit of the citizens should add such other articles us may be necessary for the comfort of the soldiers, but not procurable within the limit of $21, for six months, who shal! say that it will not be liberality, wisely and well displayecd.”—Fay.

One planter of our acquaintance, who | has sweet potatoes on bis table the year round, after digging the crop, or such por- tisns as be wishes at the time to put away, he carefully removes them to the spot seiccted for the purpose, prepares the sur- | tace and runs ashallow ditch around it, pil.s his potatoes up in the form of a roof of 2 honse, covers them with dry straw | and old corn stalks, and then places a pietx roof over them exactly like the roof. o . . . | of a cabin, or avy otber rough building, letting the eaves rest on the ground, and weather-boarding the gables, leaving an | opening or door at one end to go in at. Another successful planter, after trying Vallous ways to save Lis potato crop, amouy thers putting them in bulk in au old cahin, returned to the old method ot put- ting them in piles on dry spots, covering with earth. There ts no doubt that in saving this crop its particularly important that the | potatoes should uot be thrown upon each | The other so as to bruise or injure them. bruised potatoes commence rotting at the | injured places on them, and the whole pile suffers in the end.

IMPORTANT ARMY INTELLIGENCE, Late Appointments by the Presideat We learn that President Davis has nom- nated,and will continue the appointment, inug the recess of Congress,of Brigadier qeueral Braxton Bragg as full General, to the Yankees that their fright generally serves to defeat them,as our scouts are,in most instances,compelled to shoot them in their retreat,they being decidedly averse to a close acquaintanae,and willing to fight only at a very long range. On last Tuesday,the enemy at Arling- ton Heights were reported to have beeu re- inforced by ten thousand troops from across the Potomac. It will be noticed that,in the accounts froin the Potomac,we have observed a marked reticence as to the movements of Gen.Johnston's division of the army of the Potomac.We shall not violate the con- straints of public and official prudence to engage the interest of our readers.The events of the next few days are likely,from what we can understand,to astonish them onlya little less than the evemy themselves. A NICE TRICK HEADED. The Standaad gives a detailed account of the whys and the wherefores of the late Senatorial election—bow it happened that two Eastern men were elected. Itseems that Messrs.Clingman and Ave- rv wanted the office badly,and concluded that if an Eastern man were elected to one of the seats,the West would be entitied to the other.So,after a long struggle,“Mr.Lavis was elected mainly by the combined efforts of their friends.”But the schemedidnotwork.The Legislature did not want either Mr.Clingman or Mr.Avery, and so elected even another Eastern man in preference to either of them.‘The Stan- dard ades,— tuckians and ‘Tenuesseeans invaders,and insistthattheybeexpelled.They say thatthe Fed-eralists have only come to Kentucky to preservetranquility.‘They have,by resolution,request-ed the Governor to appoint Thomas L.Critten-den to the command of the State Troops.Mr. Underwood,unable tu suppress his emotions,spoke against the resolution.The LouisvilleCourier,a bold,ably conducted and uncompro- mising Southern paper,has been suppressed. Yesterday morning Rosseau was crossing Rolling Work,in flats,but fearing he would encounter the Hardin County boys,he sudden-ly re-crossed 600 of his men who had got over. Maldrow’s Hill has not been occupied by our troops.Green River is the name given tu the neighborhood of Bowling Green,Ky. Memrnts,Sept.20. The Confederates are doubtless occupying Muldrow’s Hill,and a battle there is probable. A large force of Tennesseeans reached Bow- ling Green,Ky.,yesterday.Gen.Johnston had arrived at Columbus and reported that 7,000FederalshadlandedninemilessboveColumbus with the intention of attacking that place. New Orceans,Sept.20. A sailor captured by the Federal steamer Massachuset(s,bat subsequently sent adrift in a leaky boat,because he refused to take the oath,was picked up and has arrived here.He reports that the enemy have nine batteries on Chandler Island,and are expecting lumber to build a house and hospital.He also states that the force is 12.000,and that they are to be di- vided on the Island and the neighborhood.— That they intend to fortify Ship Island and prevent communication between New Orleans aud Mobile.

The impetuosity and daring of the attack, however,on the part of the Contederates, who went into the lines of the Federals to effect their purposes,and struck terror to the enemy.After fighting their way to object,and the burning of the house,the Confederates returned to their camps with- out the foss of a man. The Federals in the engagement lost four killed and a number wounded,ard some eight or ten made prisoners. The above intelligence comes from quite a retiable ,source,and may be eonsidered as authentic. Special Dispatch to the Richmond Examiner.

The stock of specie in the banks is rapidly diminishing, and mercantile men say that the people there are hoarding their monry. It is estimated that thirty mil- hous of dollars have already been thus secre- ted, The Treasury notes put out by the Lin- colo Government at over sevey per Centwlas terest, are rapidly returned to the banks. It is the opinion of the best judges that these insututions will svon have to suspend allover the North. Trade is ata stand-still. A large majority of the commercial houses have al- ready failed, and there is hardly a day but some one of them topples to the ground. The voluntary enlistments for the army of the North have ceased. Drafuing has alrea- dy Leen resorted to in New Jersey, and will hereafter be the only mode in their power of recruiting their armies, At present, the va- cancies by deaths and desertions exceed the number of voluntary enlistments. Conscrip- tion is now: their only resource. It is plain enough that an army thus constituted is not to be depended on. Our informant thinks the peace party 1s gainiug ground, although free speech and the freedom of the press have been suppressed. It would seem that the influence of the Cath- olie chureh 1s hostile to the war, and these, with the commercial classes, make the basis | of a strong peace party. The war, on the j part of the Republicans, is becoming every | day more and more plainly a war upon slave-_ j ry, and the opposition are rallying upon this | | ground. Such is the substance of the ac- count derived from a gentleman who left New | York but a week agu.— Rich. Lxaminer.

NEWBERN AND ITS DEFENCES. Tt is tolly longer to suppress the fact that of all people we are the most careless and in- diferent to our true condition and the dau- ‘ver that surrounds us. For four long mouths the most bloody and hellish war that’ ever ‘cursed avy people has been raging almost im hearing of our doors aud yet not a guu has been put ip position to delend approaclies to the town except in one direction, and that too in the face of the fact that we are more | exposed than any other town in the State. If our people imagine that there is no effort to be made to sack and burn the town they are very much mistaken, A determined et- furt is undoubtedly now in process of execu- . tion by Butler which is to fall with telling effect upon some defenceless portion of our cuast or (which we believe) upon our inland ; towns, Are we in a condidon to resist itif this isthe fated place?

They shoot at | wen, women and children, indiscriminately. | A few days since, they shot a little girl, cans- | ing, fortunately, only a flesh wound. Some little boys that were aping the nulitary in the | streets, were fired upon for half an hour. Dr. N. Marmion, the most venerable physician in the town, (a son-in-law to the inventor of Hall's breech loading rifle, and brother-in- law of Hon. W. P. Hall the Lincoln Lieut. Gov. of Missouri,) was shot at as Le was rid- hing alony the road, and only escaped by de- | serting his horse. His house, the old Wager | Mansion on the hill, was since fired into.— The citizens appointed a committee to remon- strate with its federal officers upon the sub- ject; who promised a correction, but the practice is still continued.

The reader need not be surprised to hear that Lincoln's fleet has effected a successful landing of a large force on some important and commanding point on the mainland of our coast, Ilis steamers are hanging along our shores, taking svundings, capturing ves- sels, decoying pilots and making observations, &c. And worse than all, a delusive security seems to have taken possession of many of the people in that region, who have done but little to ward off an attack. The Newovern Progress and Washington Dispatch have con- stantly sounded the alarm, and we believe ——— Confederate Tax.—The Congress has levied a war tax of fifty cents‘én tie $100 value of what every man is worth.” If any State will pay its quote between this time andthe Istof April next, 10 per cent will be discounted. Tbe Government has appointed one collecting agent in each of the Southern States, and that agent is re- quired to appoivt a sub-agent in each County, in all cases selecting the sheriff or other county officer whose duty it is to collect taxes. Much apprehension is felt as to the ability of the people to raise the money for this tax. Thuse who have the means will pay it cheerfully ; but in view of the difficulty in the way of collecting money on old claims, many fear they will mot be able to meet it. There is wx distrustful feeling abruad, tending to contract purse strings except in the few rare cases where sure and jiberal returns may be relied on, This may so far wear off before we are called on for the Confederate tax as to re- move the difficulties which now seem to be in the way of the people. “Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof.” -- ow. -—— ‘ REGIMENTAL MUSTER.

It 1s no credit to a man to receive the nom- ination of a Convention. It is no evidence of his fitness ; for we all know that in party times, such as we have had, it is not fitness that governs the action of Conventions. The man may be a worthless fellow, and yet if he cau make a@ pretty speech, and bamboozle the people, party requires his services. It is no evidence of his acceptability to the people: for under the excitement of party we have often heard men swear they would yote for the devil rather than the opposition should elect their man, however worthy. An clec- tion under such circumstances may yratily an avaricious desire to clutch the spoils, but to a high toned. gentleman of refined, virtuous sensibilities it is extremely damaging to his pride ; and is hound to make him think less of himself ‘and of his constituents than if he had attained the position in a manner more satisfactorily indicative of his merits, and more creditable to the virtue and intelligence ot the people. — me. - [9 Kentucky's neutrality has proved im- practicable.

The annexed from the Raleigh Standard, Ou Uais subject, contains excellent advice. From the Standard. A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS. Wr. Hocover.—I wish to ask a couple of questions, avd d hope yeu will answer them, it you cau. -Lam a plage manlaud I need in- formation. Mus ue Legislature any right, upder gur. State Constitution, to appeal to the people a- vaanst the Conveauon ? i And has the Legislature, in extra session, a right to elect Senators te Congress ? and if it has not the right, cau am act of the Confeder- ate Congress give it his right? A Citizen. To reply to the first question of our corces- pondeut, we say, that the Legislatere has no Constitutional nght to appeal to the people against the Convention. That body may as- sume the nght to pronounce against the Con- vention, just as legislative bodies and military chieftains in Mexieg and South America as- sume the right to issue pronunciamentos one against the other, butso far as our State Con- stitution is concerned, the Legislature has the same riglt to submit the question to thepeo- ple whether or not they will have a Kiog, as it has to appeal to them to abolish the Cunven- tion. Let our correspondent study the Oon- stitution carefully, and see if be cad find an such right vested in the Legislatare. In reply to the second question we Say, that the Constitution of the Confederate States, under whieh the Senators proposed to be elected would take theic seats, expressly de- clares that Senators shall be chosen at “regu- lar,” sessions of State Legislatures. This State argeed to that when the Convention in May last, adopted the Constitution. The present Legislatare is now in its second extra session, Can it, then, elect Senators? Let our correspondent decide for himself. But our correspondent asks us, in substance, if the Confederate Congress can construe or change the Constitution? Must certainly not. No enabling aot, like the one recently passed, nor indeed, any enabling act, can confer on the Legislatures of the States the right to do that which the Constitntion expressly forbids. We have, indeed, tallen on evil times, when questions so plain as the foregoing are raised and discussed. The old Republic was destroy- ed by violations of its Constitution. ur lib- erties as a people are garnered up and tortilied in our State and Confederate Constitution. Of all the things which pertain bo government, these are the must suered. We advise our rea- ders to study these instruments; to insist on a strict but fair construction of them, aod to trust no public man who would misconstrue, or pervert, or bend them to purposes of passion or ambition, Let nv doubuul powers be ex- eroised, If you do. tellaw-citizens, the exer- cise ot other powers, soil more doubtful, will follow, uutil at last, the infracuions of the in- struments will be as gumerous as their un- broken. parts.

We have been requested by Lieut. Col. J. A. Young, of the 4th Reg. State Troops, whu had just arrived from Manassas, to urge upon the people of North Carolina the importanev | to elade the authorities. We say nothing of | of furnishing a large supply of Dogwood Uark | the constitufionality of the act of the Govern- | (from the tree and root,) Wild Chergy bark, (Bone-set and Suake-root, if to be had,) w- mediately, for the sick soldiers in our army. (Quinine iz not now to be obtained, and these | Council of State will, when it convenes next | Barks will subserve quite as good a purpose, ii Curing chills and giving tone to a relaxed and debilitated system. The Dog-wood abounds everywhere in North Carolina, but i3 mot found in the region of Manassas, and our farmers can obtain barrels of the bark with little trouble. Col. Young thinks that a barrel of this bark would be worth more to the sick at Manassas than a carload of some kinds of vegetables, We are assured that no- thing wonld be so acceptable, and so impor- tant to the sick, which the people of the State have 1tin their power to furnish, as ample supplies of Dogwood Bark, Surely, an arti- ele so easily and cheaply obtained, will be tor- warded without delay. It can be sent, green or dry, in barrels, boxes, and bags. Tredell Express. Our feeler thrown out yesterday, pointiny toa union with South Carolina, elivited a pretty veneral expression of opinion, and this showed a coincidenve with our views, so far, at least, as they indicated a feeling of restive; ness under the queer treatment accorded to this part of the State; for in truth we can only re-monstrate, we cannot change the sia- tus or political relations of this section of the, State to the balance, or to South Carolina. We can, however, record emphatically our appreciation of some things, which deserve that such course should be pursued by our people. A vote such as we proposed, would be the most emphatic expression tbat we could give, and it might do some good. Wil. Jonrnal. Masonic Fing.iry.—It is stated upon good authorty, that when Hamptor, Va., was tken possesston of by the federals, while they were laying their vandal hands upon every thing, pillaging or destroying what- ever came in their way, Col. Townsend of the 3d N. Y. regiment with # portion of bis regiment, masons, we presume, went tothe room of Hampton Lodge and secu: ed al] the records, regalia, dc., carefully se— cured them in a chest and sent them to Baltimore.

Some years since quite a speculation was vot up in connection with this harbor, upyy which it was in conte plton to espablish a Navy Yard. A Branswick City” Company was organized in New York and some shrewd ones, Thartow Weert! of Albany, among them, contrived to forestall the goverument in gel- ting possession of the contemplated site ot the proposed Navy Yard. . Of course a fabulous price was asked fur it. We presume that the main object of the Federal government in seeking to obtau pos- session of Brunswick would be to havea stadon on the Atlantic coast South of Hainp- ton Roads, at which their fleets could ven- dezvous, take in coal, or retityenerally. They might get some inber and naval stores but not much cotton, évenif the people were will- ing to forward it, which we do not think that they would be. Brunswick was to be the Eastern terminus of the Brunswick aud Florida Railroad, but so tar as we know that ryad has never been finished. We hardly know what the defences of Brunswick may be. We rather think that i they @mouut to anything they must be of reeent construction, as we do not know ot any stone forts there. The neighboring coun- try is very thinly settled, and oould yot turu out any large force for local defence, but we cannot briug ourselves tv believe that Bruns- wick is a place of sufficient strategic impor- tance to justify such an expedition as is said to be getting ready at the North, or as may even now be at sea. When the blow falls it will be found to have been aimed at some more important point. It is hardly probable that the Northern pa- pers tell the truth when they talk about twenty-five thdusand troops being aboard a fleet destined for the South. Twenty-five thousand troops, with ammunition, camp equipage, artillery, borses, and other necessi- ties for service ‘would require an enormous amount of ‘transportation, far more indeed than Lincoln's government can possibly com- mand without wholly abandoning Suey ne like an attempt even to blockade. Half of twenty-five thousand would makea formida- ble force if precipitated on an undelended point.— Wil, Journal. THE EMBARGO. Gov. Clark some time ego issued hie proc- larmation forbidding the transportation of Bacon, Leather and Shoes from the States except when done at the instance of the (onfederate government. A short time after, a considera- ble quantity of bacon, d&c., was veized at this depot en route for Virginia. More recently shoes and bacon were seized at Goldsboro’. The object of the Governor was to put a stop lo the meanness of speculatore, who, not- withstauding the exhorbitant prices and scarci- | ty of these articles in the Siate, were draining itof them to get still higher prices out of it. | The neme of every such speculator ought to be published and the ban of society should be put upow them.

A Lie Out.—Mc Dowell, in bis official report of the battle of Manassas Plains, as sesses his killed at 481. papers have been publishing lists of the kill- ed at that battle, and enumerating not more than balf the regiments engaged, have al- ready published the names of 318 killed. Cameron, the Yankee Sceretary of War, in a speech made to some of the Pennsylvan- ia Regiments near Artington, last week, said that 700 of his Yankee brethren were made to bite the dust at Manassas.

They have selec- ted an able and influential delegation of busi- ness men. We are now struggling in the field of bat- tle for political independence of the North, and as peace will come some day, the com- mercial men of the South conceive that now is the proper trme to make preparations for a commercial independence also, This is wise.

For years we have allowed Northern mer- chants and bankers to stand between us aud European traders. They have grown neh and insolent by the operation. And although our people and section have furnished almost the entire basis of commercial operations be- tween Europe and the old United States, yet such has been the course of trade as to ignore our existence, and deprive us of the advan- tages of commercial acqnaintance and credit.

Here is a great fact that ought to arrest Southern attention. Although the South produces tor exportation, aud actually exports trom her ports, largely over two hundred nullions of dollars worth of produce, yet of the goods for which they ure exchanged abroad, less than one-fifth of the amount comes back through our own ports—-the resi- due comes back through Norah ports, But tt must be borne in mind that whilst the South exports from her own ports largely over two hundred millions worth of produce, she dues not export this produce in Southern vessels, Six-sevenths of these exports go abroad in Northern vessels, thus furnishing the Northern capital, vested in toutiage, the round profit of twenty millious a year made foc treighting Southern produce to foreign markets, Ido not write this asa subject for com- plaint against the North. It is legitimate for ber capitalists to build vessels and to engage wi carrying our products to market. Bat, when we become commercially independent, we shall have to provide our own means of transportation if we wautain that independ- chice, Nor do T note the fact that one hundred j and seventy-eight millions of the goods im- | ported in exchange foe Southern products are ' brought to as through Northern ports tor tie purpose of making tt the subject of complaint | avaiust tue North, \ ' | | portant, imasimuch as it shows Low depoudent | we have heretofore beeu upon the North tor | must of the necessaties aud luxuries tor which jour products have been exchanged.

It thus appears that the South contributes three-fifths of the reve- nue from imports, and y#t it isan undenia- ble fact that, in the disbu@ewent of the reve- | nues, at Jeast three-fitths Are expended in the North. If such is the upeqyal operation of a revenue tariff, it would be difficult to estimate the injustice of the protective tariff now ir operation in the Northern Government. But I do not note this inequalityin tle op- | eration of the tariff policy. in onder to com- | plain of it; the law gave this advantage to the | North, and the South, being a law-abiding j people, submitted to the injustice without. complaint. The fact, however, is useful in ! showing the dependence of the South upon | the North. There is another feature in the operation of | the tari! policy which deserves special atten- | ton. Ihave shown tbat the South buys of | the North about two’ hundred millions of: goods annually, in addition to the amount re- | ceived from abroad through Northern ports, in exchange for Southern products exported | to foreign countrics, The operation of the { tariff policy on the prices we bave to pay for | this addiwonal two hundred millions of North- | ern goods is exactly the same as upon the | hke goods imported from abroad. — It increas- es the prices to the consumers of the goods at the rate of twenty per cent. under the revenue tariffof 1807, and of thirty to forty per cent under the tari of 1860. Under the revenue tariff, the additional cost to the Southern comsumers would be sixty villous annually, including tariff aud freights, and, with the prorective tariff, from eighty to one hundred millions annually, As onerong and Unjust as 1s this anonal Imposition of sixty ! millions apou Southern cCopsiimiption, we can- not complain of it, because it ts ouly the inci- ‘dental protection derived by the manutactures of the North from a revenue tariff, but when this amount is swelled to eighty or one huan- dred tuithons, under a protective tariff it be- comes a subject for jnstcomplaint. We may now recapitulate the substantial benefits derived by the North from the course of comtuercial dealings established between the two sections, The following figures ex- iubit the annual profits made by the Novta up- j ow Southern products : For freiglits to and from Europe. $40,000,000 For profits on foreign imported goods sold to Southeim mer- | chants..........2...000 eee 3U, 000,000 For increased tariff prices on | Northern manutactures sold to ICL CRS Sc 011 eee eee 60,000,000 | ee ae ree Total protits............. $130,000.000 For opportunity of realizing annually this , avegregate profitot one hundred and thirty uuthous on Southern products, the North Is wdebted inainly to the Vien, These profits result frou that peculiar course of conmercial wade between the North and South, which {has been stimulated and fostered and protec- ted by the legislation of the Union from the , beginning of the Governinent. As rich as the North is now, she was once very poor. Betore she was blessed by the Union with the South, her people made a hving by send- fing small vessels to the West India Islands, laden with fish, beef, butter, pork, poultry, ei- der, apples, cabbages, onions, Ke. These ar- ticles they sold for money which they carried to England, who bonght their goods, retnrn— ing by the way of the African coast, catching or buying uegroes, and bringing them baets for sale to the Southern colouies. They had (little or vothing to export, whilst the Southern | colomes had a large surplus of exports over their imports. ; When the Union was formed, the fisheries | constituted the yreat business of the North. | They immediately procured the passage of a jlaw granting a drawback on fish exported, equal to the supposed quanuty of salt used. | This was soon cuanged fora law grannug a bounty on vessels cuyaged in the fishenes, and this bounty has been continued to the a time. Its immediate effect was to stiinulate the budding of vessels, whilst the {annual bounties derived from the public treas- | ury swelled Northern capital. These bones have amounted, in the aggregate, to more | than thirteen millions of dollars, of winch the | people of Massachusetts have received two- thirds or more than eight millions. As long as Great Britain exercised domin- ion over her colomes, the North contd not compete with the mother country for this carrying trade, but so soon as the Union was formed the restriction was resumed, and laws WELC PASS d yiving liarege encouragement to the colonists to embark in that trade.

The bank, with its branches scattered through all the States, layed a imost important part in enabling the ean to establish that course of cothmercial and financial trade which reselted in the ac- cumulation of immense wealth, aud which fixed the dependence of the South upon the North. This course of trade became so firm- ly established before the bank was overthrown, and the high protective policy was modified, that the North has since had but little diffi- eulty im maintaining 1s ascendency. It is not in the power of figures to convey to the mind a correct idea gf the advautages } Which the North has enjoyed over the South, under the influence of the various laws which have stimulated and controlled the employ- ment of capital. Many Southern men saw and protested against the unequal and unjast operation of the system of legislation, which Was enriching ove secuon at the expense of the other. They struggled to resist the over- whelming power that was combined against them, but they struggled in vain, AM they got for their labors is the bitter denunciations of the North as being restless Disunionists.— Southern men eneaged iu commerce bad no power to stand np avaiust the combined force of Northern capital, wielded) by manufactur- ing and banking corporations, and fostered and protected hy all the power of the Union. All they could do was to submit to the pow- er they could not control. and glide into the gourse of trade whien had been the fixed habit of the eoontry, Tcisnovsarprising that with such advantagesthe North became rich, Dot itis surpmsing tuat the South was able to endure the heavy exactious withont be- coming absolutely inpovershed.— Nothing van show more clearly the real eapacity of the South to become the richest people in the world than the facts whith we have detailed. Hitherto the South bas done little else than prodnce capital fur the North to trade Upon, We have produced annually ever four. hu- dred natlions of raw materials, which have passed imnuediately info the hands of North- ern capitalists, and constituted the basis of the wealth which they have extracted from them. Jt has beea shown how they have made an annual profit of one hundred 4nd thirty mulbons iu freighting our products, re- turuiug thei te us in foreign guods, and in the incidental protecuon derived from the ta- miflaw. Bat this does not embrace the milk fons made in the Way of brokerage, interest, commission, We in the management of our produce. Nor does it embrace the millions Which we spend yearly in travel in the North, Mr. Kettell cstumates that Southervers zo North every year and spend an average of $1,000 each annual expenditure for travel of fifty millions Nor does it embrace the millions that we spend in sending our sons and daugh- ters North to be edueated. Nor does it em- brace that Incalenlable amount derived by the North from the system of banking, exchany- es and credits wich has made us as financially dependent on the North as we have been commercially, It as inpossible to estimate With accuracy these amounts, and, therefore, adop: the result of Mr. Nettell’s invesugations, of doll aS pays annually to tie North for miterest, bro- keraye. insurance, travel, &c., about one huu- dred and the amount of one hundred and thirty viil- lons, before estimated as the commercial pro- fits ot the Northoat yields the sum of two Hteeu imilhons. naally by the North from ler union with the South.

He gave them the facts in ore der to show them that they were far more in- terested in the preservation of the Union than the Southern people, and that if separation should take place the North would be utter- terly and inevitably ruined, whilst the South would really be greatly benefitted. His clos- ing remarks were so forcible that I cannot resist the temptation to produce them: “The North has no future material resour- ces; in minerals, both the other sections sur- pass it. In metals it is comparatively desti- tute; of raw materials it has none. Its abit ity to feed itself is questionable. Its com- merce is to the whole county what that of Holand was to the world, viz: kving on the trade of other people. Its manufactures occu- py the same position, awaiting only the time when the other sections will do their own work. When that moment arrives, Massa- chusetts, which now occupies the proudest. rank in the Union, will fall back on her own resources, and still claim to be an agricultural « State, since her Summer crop is granite, and her Winter crop ts tce. This period the North supinely pernnts a lew unscrupulous politi- cians, clerical agitators, and reprobate per- sous to hasten, by the most wanton attacks 'upou the institutions of their best customers. ‘ ' ' } \ \ making the total ! » together, It this be added to > . ; a j fiecs in maintaining oar independence. hondred and forty-five millions, derived an- ! : They are torcing the Northern slave States to assume to the South the same position thas » New England held to the South on the form- ation of the Union. They are holding out to thein the bright prize of becoming the man- ufacturers, importers and carries for the South as the North Mins been. They offer them this brilkant premium tu cut their connection with -, the North, in order to enjoy those brunches of industry tm relation to the South which have conferred such wealth and prosperity upon New tingland & the Middle States. England ve- came rich by the colonies—repelled them.— Her wealth fell on New England; she has become rich, and in her turn repels the South in favour of the Northern slave States. 7hese latter see the prize fulling fo them, and ma become eager to grasp tt before the North shal’ have awakened to its dunger.” It is apparent from the facts stated, that it the separauon between the, Narth end the » South had been peaceable and amicable, it | would have been exceedingly difficult for the South to establish and maintain its commer- cial and financial independence. The .ties af trade that connected the two sections were so numerous and so strong, and the habit in the South of relying on the North for com teercial and financial facihties was so con- fitty thousand | firined, that the obstacles to complete inde- pendence would have been next to insepara- ble. These obstacles were removed, however when Mr. Lincof determined to resort to the military power of the Government in ofder to prevent the separauon. War has dissolved all of the commercial and financial, As well as political ties that bound the two sections The longer the war shall continue, and the more bluod spilled, the niore embit- tered will become the people on both sides, and the more impracticable will beeome any future re-construction, either political or eons mercial, The sentiment is already wide-spread : : ‘and strong that the separation must be eom- He comes to the conclusion that the South. : per plete and irresistible.

Bold, andacious, pro:npt, and full of energy, Lyon was worth (wouty thousand men to the Yan- kee vause. Premont never rose to the digni- cy of a devent humbng. He pretended to be e@ conqucror of California, but it is matter of easy proof that he never participated in a Single battle by which that province was se- ured for the Amemcan arms. After the Mexicans liad been rented by another com- manider, he met the broken and dispersed tu- gitives and received their surrender upon terms which he had no right to make. His chief exploits in California were the murder of two unarmed men at Sonoma, and a life marked by profigacy and corruption. He as failed disgracefully in Missvuri to display any ability as a (General, but he has been there long enough to show that his brutal and eowardly spirit is unchanged. He goes to Washinton in disgrace. General Wool, who gucceeds, las made a considerable reputauion of late at the North, but we predict will not prove himself any great genius in war.— Mansfield, who sneceeds Wool at Old Point Comfort, bears the reputation of being one of rhe eblest officers in the United States service.

They have evident- iy commenced an advance movement to the orth, which we confidently trust and believe will prove a fatal chsaster to the Western ar- my of the usurper and his miserable cohorts. Of course no one knows the plans of the General commanding, but it is believed, in all quarters, that this movement is destined to affect a complete triumph over the Western tyrant, Fremont, and to result in restoring the of Miasour, if not Kentucky, to their cights as freemen.

The war is destined to work many wonde r- fal changes in the politicel, commercial, finsn- cial wad religious relations of this Conutry. l | will turn aw.y fron, Washington city the eyes and hearts of our people as the seat of their government. It will divert from New York, Boston and Philadelphia millions upon miilions of the products of Southern suil and send thein in Southern ships across the Atlantic, to Eng- land, France.

Li will draw a wide and deep mark of distinc: tion in the social relations between the natives of the country North, and of the cour try South, of Mason and Dixon’s line, so that they wil vot soon ag:tin regard eech uther as breth- rev.

But why it should suddenly add ove hundred per cent to the price of Cominon, home made Leather, and nut add one cent tu the price of the hides out of which it te manutac- tured, is one of the slrangest resulis (if a fuir and honest one,) that these eventful tines have procuced. There is a great demand for leather to shoe our soldiers; aud the Government coming into market with a good purse, earned by agents who make freer witb it than with their own, leather dealers, (and others,) with consciences hardewed by avarice and not tempered with patriotism, quickly dixcern the state of the Lockeu in, say they, by the blockade, alarmed by the falling leaveg, autumaal winds, Case. aid the cries of burefucted soldiers, we've cot you, young Confederacy, in our power, aud we'll make you shell oud gloriously!

Well, this state of leather won't last always. Men are making records now which are to be read and re-read during the life-tine of the present generation, at least. Those noble fel- lowe who have taken their lives in their hauds and gone into the battle field, who are uuder- going deprivation, exposure, sickness, aud an- guish of soul, will come back, after a while, poor, worn, and enfeebled it may be, but with sensibilities as keen and tender as their suffer- ings have been great. How will they feel to- wards one of these dealersin leather and hides, grown rich during their absence, by selling shoes to their families at a hundred per cent advance, taking hides, out of great kindnese, at 6 and 7 cenlsin part payment? It won't be pleasant to siand before them and hear them read the records! And read them they wil.— right in the face of every man, and as long os The soldiers they five. of the old revolution never focgotut they ever furgave the speculators of ihose days; nor will soldiers of this revolution | ever forget thein, whether they relate to lea- thgror other things.

GF Whilst on thia subject read the following from the Richmond Examiner : TIE“ AQMY WORMS” OF RICIMOND. The co rapt and atrocious speculations of some of cur Southern merchants and tradesmen is na subject of un- broken clamour in all parts of the Confederacy. The «ime of the “army worm” jo Richinond is more offen- sive and disgusting than that of the Yankee who for- merty preyed upon the people of the South. Aas winter ix advancing, the brutal speculators jn ar- ticles of clothing avd necessary comfort are advancing prices beyond all reason and decency. We are inform- ed of the instances where the common Vi:yinia gray cloth, furnished by the manufacturers at seventy cents per yard, is sold by the Richmond deulers at the extor- tionate price of three dollars and a half. Agrin, we have seen some excellent heavy cloth, 6-quarters in width, menufactured in Nashville at $2 40 per yard. The same material is being sold in the city of Richmond at $10 per yard, These extortions are little less than positive crimes. If the Government will continue to hesitate to apply the corrective, a ciii7ens’ mass meeting might be cahed, at least to give some public expression of sentiment to re- trieve the city of Richiaond from the disgrace bronghe pon it by the extortiona, flippant oeflance, und insuf- 1 ferable jusolenee of speculators, shin-plasterers, aud small mor cy grubbing trad: simen 0 8 }.° Fdward Bolin, alrag William F.

The New York Zribune, of a very recent date, bas the following account of a disor- derly demonstration made by the First Reg- iment of Fire Zouaves of that city : The encampment of the Zouaves, on the battery, was yesterday the sceve of unusual excitement and disorder. Under the order of Col. Lozier, issued upon the orders of the Commander-in-chief, the men were di- “rected to appear yesterday morning In un- iform, for the purpose of being trausported to Fortress Monroe. The order of the Col- one] stated that “those members who are afraid to meet the enemy again, aud con- sequently do not appear at the time specified will be treated as diserters, and their names will be published in the city papers, in or- der that, in future, they may be known in thelr true character by the people of New Yak,” Upwards of five hundred men responded to the order, so far as appearing upon the ground was concerned, but it was evident from their actions that the majority had no intention of leaving the city. With oné or two exceptions, they had utterly dis- ® carded their uniform, and had veither arms or equipments, A few officers were pres- ent in uniform. A meeting was held, at which it was determined by the majority that they would not go for the present, but a large number expressed their willingness to go at an early day if they were first paid A 11 o'clock the men were formed in companies aud the rolls called. Afterward gach company was addressed by Colonel Logier, in order to ascertian bow many wete willing to go with the regiment. In andouncing this object, be said that the regiment would be uniformed and armed ~as svon as possible, perhaps in three days, and would be paid when the rolls were made out, which would be within a week. To the first proposition but few responded : to the second a large number, but not a great proportion of the regimeut. The Colonel then continued, telling them that it was of no consequence, ina milta ry point of view, whether they were willing to go or vot; thatit they refused to accom- pany the regiment when it should proceed, or left it previously, they should be punisb- ed as deserters, if he could procure such punishment for them. Upon breaking ranks the scene became one of great confusion. The small number of men who had agreed to go were taken severely to task, and the only sentiment was “stand fast.’ Numberless disorderly pranks were played by the Zouaves upon those who approached the camp, and sev- eral persons were brought within the lines and tossed in a blanket. Among the per- sons thus outraged was areporter. Besides beiag tossed in the air, be was attacked by several cowardly fellows and severely injured. In consequence of some of the men accusing each other of cowardice at the Bull Run battle, a desperate tight re- sulted, which was quelled by Capt. Silvery, of the first ward police, with a large force of the men. Several of the Zouaves had their heads and faces badly cut. The po lice deemed it useless to make any ar- rests. At 24 o'clock Colonel Lozier command- ed the men to fall in, and ordered all those who desire to serve their country to folios him to Vier No. 1, North river, where a steamer was in waiting to convey them to Old Point Comfort via Atnboy. About twenty-tive followed the Colonel, while the remainder taunted thein for having obey— ed any orders till they were paid. The Zouaves attempted an attack upon the Elmira Regiment, but desisted when the nen were ordered to charge upon them The sentries were provided with ball car— tridge, and ordered to shoot any pers ou who forced the guard. not renewed. We have been much gratified to learn that the Navy Department has late and an- thentic intellivence respecting that merc)- leas plague of Yankee skippers, the Confed- | erate steamer Sumter. But lately the Yan- kees announced that she was at the bottom of the sea, and went so far as to say that! Providence had something to do with a. On both subjrcts they appear to be badsy informed. ‘The French war vessel wloel came up the Mississippi the other day brought direct news, received from the Van tish vessel of war Solent, that, on the L4th | | | Thea uttack was , Tur Lexinaton Victory.—This event still grows in importance. See the extract from Gen. Price's official report—all of it that has come to hand. He shows the trifling loss, as compared with the yankee accounts, of 25 Kallen and 72 wounded. Ile says, and the yankess now adinit, that he recovered $900, - 000 in money and restored it to the banks which had been robbed of it. The St. Louis Evening News, a Lincoln paper, says the tall of Lexington is "a heavy reverse to our arms in Missouri, and to the Confederates it “secures possession of about 4000 stand of arms, 700 cavalry horses, with their equipments, a considerable quantity of ammunition, several pieces of arullery, and the most important city of Western Missou- a te iat Mulligan and his Irish regiment were from Chicago. The Tribune of that city says,— “But one sentiment prevails in the ranks of our gallant Insh Brigade, and that is to demand that they be re-oflicered and led into the field, to revenge their reverses and win back their noble commander, And they will doit, Let them be generously cared for, for they have wrought well and gloriously. They will remain at Qumcy until they are paid off’ Let them be at once re-armed and accoutered, and this titne with the best that can fatl to the soldier's lot. They have shown themselves worthy the best.” This is note-worthy. “Let them ke at once re-armed.”” Why they were discharged on parol, taking an oath not again to take up arms ull regularly exchanged. But here is 40 lulauious proposition to go at once into service again. Well, if they are as great scoundrels as the Tribune, it is hoped that they will be captured again, and either hang- ed or shot—one or the other, we believe, be- ing the penalty for breaking such a parol. A NOVEL FEATURE UF THE SEQUES- TRATION LAW. Among Other advantayes the North has eu- Joved over our section is the unenyiable one of furnishing nearly all the abandoned females who infest our cities, praying upon the iguor- aut aud weak-minded. Mauy of them accg- mulate a great dea! of money, furnish thelr houses in extravagant style, and travel home- wurd every summer Ww spend or invest the earuings of theirsin, At the present Wine there is between two and three hundred thousand dollars worth of furniture, silver plate, &c., belonging to these Northern vampires, who have left their homes here in charge of other persons. When the particulars of the Sequee- tration bill passed by vur Cougress were tele graphed to this city a remarkable panic seized upon the habiluees of those resorts, who looked forward with certainty to the seimure and sale of the outfits of their establishments, and after a few of them commenced removing a regular stampede took place duy before yes- terday, nearly all of their houses being des s.- ed. Whether their expectations of the seizure were unwarrantable or not, we do not know, bat we hope that all of these vile dens of Northern importation will be summinarily dis- posed of, according 'o law, as partial eradica- tion of a greatevil. One of theee women has written a letter from New York, pretending that she had been sent to Fort Lafayette tor avowing Southern sentiments (!); no doubt a pitiful dodge to save her $25,000 worth of fur- niture from confiscation.—[ Vv.

SAM. HOUSPON. (Hea. Sum. Houston, of Texas, feading in the New York //erald a paragraph, purport- Ing to be a Washington dispatch, dated on the Loth ult. in which it was intimated that | there was au increasing “Union” seotiment in ‘Texas, and that Gen. H. did not syinpa- thise wit “rebellion,” but was living ‘in quiet seclusion, awaiting events,” has come out with a letter, 1m which he declares that his name has been unwarrantably referred to, and his preseut atutude most egregiously fisappreheuded or wantonly misrepresented. ‘The gist of tis letter, and all of i¢ with which the people of the Confederate States, out of Vexas, can have any special concern, is contained in the following pregeant para- yrapbs, a perusal of which will, we think, leave nv doubts on the mind of the reader as to the position uow occupied by “old San Jacinto :” Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet have usurped the powers of Congress, and have waged war against the sovereign States, and have thereby not only absolved the Ststes, but all the people of the several States, from their allegiance to his Government, the Federal Government having ceased to exist by it acts of usurpation. He has, through his ollicers, suspended the writ of habeas corpus, the bul- wark of American liberty, and proclaimed martial Jaw in sovereign States, It I am to rely on the current intelligence of the day, he has, through his Major-General, Mr. John C. Frenjont, proclaimed martial law in Mis- sour, avd ussuined the civil administration of the affairs of that State, thereby ignoring the Constitution und setting at naught the sover- eignty of the people, and has, in fact, with more than Vandalic malignity and Gothic hate, sought to incite a servile insurrection in that State. If the last feather had been wanting to break the camel’s back, this act of atrocity would have supplied it’ His acts and feelings are such as have never failed to characterize the heart of a renegade. If Mr. Lincoln, as he was the aggressor, by invading the soil of a sovereign State and causing the blood of her sons to be shed, even in the neighborhood of the sacred re- mains of Washington, after having become President upon a sectional issue, in derogation of the teaching of his fatewell address, wishes to make reparation for the wrongs iatlicted, he has but one course left, and, in my opinion, that course is to propose an armistice that shall withdraw all the Federal troops from Virginia, suspend the action of the Federal forces in all of the Southern States, and the Confederate authorities at the same time guaranteeing that they will not advance their troops into any territory not occupied by them until the mecting of the Confederate and Federal Congresses at their next session. Should this:course be pursued, there is little doubt but that the good sense and patriotism of the two sections would adept such meas- ures as would restore peace, arrest the further destruction of human lite, and restore, to a great extent, the prosperity of the two sec- tions, for it caunot be imagined that a vain hope of restoring the Union can ever be real- ized. The South can never re-unite with the North, nor can the North entertain any ra- tonal hope of ler subjugation. The sooner the war is ended the greater will be the probability of establishing friendly relations between the two sections, and this cannot fail to promote the mutual prosperity of both. Should this be disregarded, a terrific respon- sibility must rest upon the heads of those who either interpose power or authority to its consumination. This last paragraph contains words of truth and soberness calinly put, and would carry . conviction to the mind of any sane man. “The South can never re-unite with the North. ; mor can the North entertain any rativnal Lope . of the subjugation of the South,” QUITE A PROPHECY. The New York Herald’s correspondent at . Fort Pickens, after speaking of two little forays, in which they burned the dry-dock . and the schooner Judah, says: “News reaches me that an enterprise of a ; still more desperate character than either ot > the above will be attempted shortly. It is - the firm purpose of Colonel Brown to briny . on a general engagement by provoking the .@einy toa point beyond mortal endurance. Colonel B. is cautions, and does not wish to take the initiative step.

And reply he will. Ere another mail reaches you, I hope - to be able to chronicle such events as shall . electrify the whole country.” How promptly and completely this proph- ecy hasbeen fulfilled! Truly, the destruction . of their camps, the spiking of their guns in ‘battery, and the putting to flight of their “Pet Lambs,” without giving them a chance ‘to put on their breeches, will be apt to “elec- > trify” the whole North, although perhaps not ‘in a very agreeable manner.

In modern bistricnical arrengesments the farce neually follows the tragedy. Upon the stage of national events, where political and goverumen- tal theories find their most artistic actuuliza- tion before the world as an auditory, the reverse ie not unfrequently the care. Afl eyes have for some time been idly bent upon the farcical per formances of Keutucky, her fantastic tricks | aud burlesque attitudes ; but the scenes have at length been shifted ; the tight-rope of “neu- trality,”’ upon which so many wonderful feate of equilibriume were performed, called up; the dagger of lath, that, in the hands of the p. liti- cal harlequin, flashed “resistance” and ‘coer- | cton’’ on all sides cust uway ; the clown’s bells, that tinkled ‘*peace” in the ears of the foolish gtuundiings, are heard no more ; and now the gaze is fixed upon the opening of a bluudy trag- edy, perhaps amongst the most blvody in the book of revolutions. Kentucky is enlisted ‘fur the war.” Although late in the field, she will soun be foremost in the tight, and ere long a bright pariicalar star in the galaxy of the Southeru Confederacy. A grave error, into which many but acquain- ted with the real sentiment of Kentucky have fullen, 18 the suppositivg (hat the receut legis | lative action of the Stute at all expresses the will or syinpathies of the people. The tact is bow notorious among the well informed citizens, that the Union members of both branches of the Legislature, while pledging themselves to their conatituents, prior to their election, to re- sist the encroachment. of the LincoLn Govern- ment, had their pockets lived with LincoLn gold and Lincoun contracts, the wuges of the iniquity they have so unblushingly practised. and for the betrayal of the people, whicu they have so shamelessly made in the face of contin- ued protests through conventions and popular Meetings, repeatedly expressed. The people of Kentucky may be properly di- vided into three classes, viz: 1. The Abvolition- ists, composed uf the poorer class of population in the mountain counties, Yankees and Europe- an foreigners. 2. The Union inen, comprisiug that class educated to repard the Federal Con- stitution with a devotee’s reverence, and whose political catechism tuught that the preservanon of the Union was the puramount end of human existence. ‘They realize the fact that their pe- cuuiary interests ure with the South, and their sympathies consequently not foreign to us. When the question of union with the South is directly presented before them, scarcely one of this class will vote against the connection of the State with the Contederaey. In the third and remaining category, the Southern ryhts men, we find the best nerve, the must unflinch- ing determination, the rarest chivalry, the heart the blood aud the soul of Kentucky. There need be nu fear of the result, when such men fight at all; but when they enter the field in advocacy of the cause that pow inspires them, the issue Is already determined and unquestion- able. From all points of the State they flock to the standard of their gallant leader, a man in whom they place the utmost confidence. If Gen.

Proclamation Against War Speculaters. The Governor ot Alabama has issued the fol - lowing proclamation against the ‘army worne:” Executive Department, Montgomery, Ala, Oct. 2, 1831. I have credible information that sunary per- sons, in the citiesof Mobile and Montgomery, and other parts of the State, are buying up the limited supply of the urticles which are in- dispensable for the subsistence, clothing, and maintenance of our soldiers and people for the purpose of munopolizing the trade in such ar- ticles, and realizing lJarge aud unreasonable profits. I deem it my duty to protest, in this public manner, against such conduct, and pro- vounce it unpatriotic and wicked ; and I here- by notify all persons authorized to make pur- chases for the State of Alabama not, under any circumstances, to buy at the unreasonable pri- ees which may be exacied by such persons. Those who would take advantage of the ne- cessities of the country and its army, to enrich themselves by such means, cannot be regarded as its friends, and will meet with a merited re- tribution io due season. [ huve no condemna- tion or rebuke for merchants who are engaged iu legitimate trade, and only exact just and reasonable profits. They subserve a purpose of unquestionable usefulness by procuring and supplying the things which the people aud the Government need; and they manifest alike their patriotism and integriiy by continuing to pursue # course of legitimate trade, uninfluen- ced by the opportunities for mouvpoly and ex- tortion [tis due to the community which has patronized such merchants, as wellae to the country, that they should sell their werchan- dise only to persons needing them for consump- tion, aud in such quantities as may be needed for that purpose ; thus contributing to defeat the designs of the harpies who would speculate upon the necessities of the times. A. B. MOORE. THE LAW DEFIED. We notice in the Charleston Courter that Messrs. James L. Pattigrew, Nelson Mitchell and William Wealey, members of the Charles- ton bar oppose the enforcment of the sequestra- tion act, and urge their opinions of law as jus- tifteation in opposition to the combined wisdom of the Confederate Congress. [is very strange that while Northern van- dals are invading our soil to murder, ravish, rob and destroy the property of Southern men, there are to be found Southern born men, even in Charleston, who oppose the provisions of a law made to protect the people of the South.

A NEW FEATURE OF THE WAR, We are credibly informed that an examina- tion of the trunks, &c., of the Indiana regi- ment, recently captured at Chicamacomitco, brought a large pumber of counterfeit notes on the bank of Camden, S. C., to light: These were printed from genuine plates, and are of the denomination of 5's, 108 and 20's. Some are signed (forged of course) and others are 10t. This revelation of villainy developes a new feature of the war, which there is much rea- son to believe was designed to be general. Most, if not all, of our bank notes have here- tofore been printed at the North, and the plates are yet in their possession. From these plates numerous notes are to be circulated among our people wherever the vandals can get a foot hold. ; If this 1s not the height and depth of vil- lainy, we are at a loss to conjecture what is: and if it does not fully develope the character of our foe to te that of a degraded and | vicious people, realy for the commission of the lowest and darkest deeds of vice, we do not know what is necessary to do so. Let such a people be watched. Let us! keep them off our shore, and give them no opportunity to practice their deeds of villainy upon us. Let us rejoice that we are inde- pendent of them, and let us see that this in- dependence is maiutained. Norfolk Day Book. SUPERIOR PERCUSSION CAPS. The superiority of the percussion caps manufactured in the South for the use of the Confederate States army has lately been severely tested in this city and proved beyond all doubt. Several days ago, a large number of them were emptied into a shallow portion of the Appomattox and allowed to remain under water a suthcient length of time to completely saturate them. How or why they were emptied into the river, as we have not before mentioned, we will not now say. These caps were taken out and dried, and are found to be as good as betore the test. They scem to be water proof both from without and within, and the detonating powder which they contain, is evidently of the most superior quality. Such proof is incontestible, and the test to which they were submitted is such as the Yankee make could not stand—VPeters- burg E-cpress. SUPERIOR GENERALSHIP. It is evident that nothwithstanding our brave ariny on the Potomac have not been moving for- ward as rapidly as the chivalrous men who re- main at home to protect their hides have desired, yet it has been working faithfully to conquer with as little loss as possible We are perfectly satisfied with all our Gen- erals have dove, because we are sure they have respect for the lives that compose their brave army, and have prepared them to conquer when they order the blow to be struck. The news from the Potomac, published yes- terduy morning, satisfies us that a trap has been set by Johnston and Beauregard, andthe Yankee fools are about entangling their feet with its meshes. Conreperate Berr.—In answer to our en- quiry, mude sume days ago, the wife of a plan- terin Bryan county sends us the following ree- ipe, for which she will accept our thanks: Take 4 gallons of water, to which add 14 Ibs sugar, 3 ounces salt petre, 6 Ibs salt; put the whole into a clean pot and let it boil as long as the scum rises, which take off as fast as it ri- ses. When the scum ceases to rise take it from the fire and let it cool. Rub the beef to be pickled with salt and let it stand three hours or until all the blood has drained out ; then lay the beef in the vessel it isto be kept in and pour over the pickle; it must coverthe beef well, and the barrel must be kept covered.

The Secretary of the Treasury no doubt has good reasons for this decision. The chief Collector, Mr. Lane, was vot informed of it until after he had appuinted Mr. High for this County. The chief Collector will no doubt make all his appointments of collectors for the Counties at as early a day as practicable: Pieasant Grove, Wayne, Oct. 12,61. Mr. W.H.

Whatever expense you have been at will no doubt be allowed you by the government, which I wi! attend to for you. 1 shal! have to make another appointment in your County in your place. Very truly yours, W.K. LANE. It will be seen from the above, that the ap- pointment of tax collector for Wake, confer- red on me by Mr. Lune, is not valid, owing to the decision referred tu by him of the Secreta- ry of the Treasury. ‘Che appointment was conferred on me without any desir or solicita- tion forit on my part. I deem it due to the people that I should give them this notice, and make it as public as the police of my appoint- ment and the days fixed for giving in the lists T ehall take steps to pu: the people to as little trouble as possible, under the circumstance, ae the result of my appointment for receiving the lists in the various districts in the Cuunty here- tofore published. No blame can attach to either Mr. Lane or inyself in thie matter, aa he is bound to follow the instructions of the government. A County Collector will no doubt be appointed at au early day by Mr Lane, when the people will have further notice of the times and placcs for giving in their lists. WILLIAM H. HIGH. Raleigh, Oet. 14, 16). THE EIGHTH DISTRICT. We notice in two papers, probably. thiree, the nomination of “Hon. A. W. Berrow, ot Cleaveland,” as a candidate for Congress from this District. Major Burrow is now with his Regiment (the 2d) at Nortulk, Wa., aad will not be made a cat’s-paw by those who oppose the now prominent candidate. Maj. B. is one of the Editors of this paper, from the others of which he would not have withheld his con- fidence; as we have said. he is now. at his post of duty, enjoying the expectation of a warm discussion with the enemies of tlie South. Messrs. Grion, Barringer, and oth- er distinguished gentlemen, have received most flattering invitations to the iuckless field, and even the Winston Sentinel, of another District: entirely, suggests, as we havenocan- didate out, Mr. N. N. Prurwwine, of Rowan, who has not yet warned his seat in Scnator Dortcu's Speaker's chair. There must be some enchantment in that usetul piece of fur- aiture at Raleigh, deifferent: frou our more homely split-bottoms; for vo sconer does an aspinne youth throw his wearied form be- tween its well turped arins, than he beeomes “eminently qualified fora more important po- sition.” We do not know how many roids there has been in that chair, since our frend ALSPHUGA assumed a clerkship-—we would advise him to connt. fingers as long as they hold) out, and) then ——attend to his own District, The snvgestion inthe Bulletin of a Conven- tion in Salisbury, is of a piece with this whole has it not Thisis ton fi XV already endorsed an VMonntain Eagle. business Elector ? “-e YANKEE LYING A Yankee account of the affur at Chicka- miconnco says that Col, Bartow was kiled in engagement Col well known, was killed at Manassa: Regis- fer Bartow M Teal the MONEY ON HAND TO BE TAXED, We have seen a letter from Mr. Memmin- ger, in which he, in response to an enquiry on the snabject, states that money on hand is hable to be taxed under the law of the Con- federate Convress.- Raleiyh Deepister Sere Oe mernee - Camp Fiore, Near Manacsse Jonc- : «i (« wien, Va, Sept. 14,1861. Mr. Bruner: Phe companies of Artillery, the troops of Cavalry and the regiments of Infantry which I wrotp you in my, last lettes were encamped around na bave one by one been ordered to more advanced posts uatil vow there ie but three batteries near ud, no eavalry in the vicinity, and the I: fantry aB gode bat a few regiments which are stationed around Manassas for garrison duty; and as the routine of duty in camp has been the same ever since our first arrival here, | shall peseit by and con- | fine my letter to events which have recently | Wanspired, one of which was the arrival of the | Salisbury Brass Band. We had flattered our- ; Selves that we would be able to secure the eer- vices of the entire band, as it was the finest band in the entire Soutb, but out of the thir- teen origiaal members of the band we succecd- ed in obtaining the services of only five inelud- ing Mr. W. H. Neave, who has undertaken to organize a regimental band and is succeeding finely and in ashort time we will have the pleasure of enjoying one of the richest ‘treats within the power of man to produce, namely, **good music.” As Mr. Neave deservedly enjoys the reputation of being one of the very best band directiors we may rest assured that there is a good time coming. The health of eur regiment has not been good for some time past, but 1 am glad to say it is improving and in a short time f think our excellent Surgeon and his able assistants will have a holiday, as September is half gone and in about six or eight weeks the sickly season will be over, and uncle Jack will come along niping every tender bud and bleaching every thing he chances to place his withering haud upon. : We have had several deaths in the regiment recently and one of them wae a citizen of Rowan, Mr. Jacob A. Lemly, member of the Rowan Artillery. Mr. Lemly left his home on the 21st of July, to go and assiat in hurling back the invaders of our soil, and, up to the period of his illness be was prompt in his attention to every daty, and he used every exertion to qualify himself fer his new vocation, and bid fair to win for bim- self an enviable name. But he died—not or the field of battle where the brilliant wreaths of laurel shade the cypress leaves, buton a soldier couch he calmly breathed his last. He was much esteemed by the officers and members of his company, and at the funeral, which was conducted strictly according to military usage, his comrades in arms joined in conferring upon his remains the last honor in their power to bestow. ~ The company was drawn up in line in front of the quarters recently occupied by the de- ceased in the following order: The Salisbury Brass Band, The Escort consisting of a piece of Artillery and its cannoneers, commanded by a Corporal, Caisson with ite ammunition chests dismounted, Pall Bearers, Horse cuparisoned and led, Company without arms, The procession was commanded by Lieut. Ramsay, and as the coffin approached the line arins were presented and the body placed upon the caisson and the procession moved forward to the solemu music of the Funeral March. On arriving at the place of interment the coffin wee lowered in the grave and the burial service was read by the officer in command, and at the close of which the gun was placed in battery and the salute fired; them the piece of artillery was limbered and the procession returned in the same order to the camp. Troops still continue to arrive, and as the bridge is now completed across Bull Rua the traiue curry them on to Fairfax Station, nine miles nearer to Alexandria. Now I must close for the present ae @ courier has urrived and we have marching orders. Itia no. near 12 M. and the Artillery leave at two o'clock, P. M. Destination, in the viciwity of Fairfax, C. H., aud when we get settled ugain I will finish my letter. Oct. 7th.— We have left the regiment, they { presume will remain in the neighborhood of Manaesas during the winter, but where we will winter will require a betier prophet than myvelf to say. At present we are encamped in a pretty little place sheltered by trees and near « height, from which you have a view of two other bat- teries and on the opposite side of the valley there are several regiments encamped and a night the fires which the cold nights cause to be necessary, present the appearance of a cily the view is beautiful, aud a few nights sinee us I was admiring the beuutitul sight the breezes wafted over the pieasaut sound of music and the words: “Day of absence sad and dreary Wheu iny love is far away”’ reminded wwe of howe, sweet smiles, flowers, and many other aseociatious far, far away. The piece wus sung, 48 near us I coald guess by about half a dozen young men and in the still night, you have uo idea of the effect pro- duced. To day ove week ago we had a shot at the Yankees. On Saturday evening at about 3 o'clock, P. M. an order come for our two Par- rot guns to march without delay, with rations for five days, and in a short time they were under way, and your correspondent who was absent on duty at the time, bad the nnpleasant message delivered when he arrived that he was to reiuin in Charge of the remainder of the battery. L will givg you a short deserp- tion of the trip as given me by one who was more fortunate than myself, and who was an ¢ Ym witness through the entire march. After Bee camp they proceeded to report to Gen. Walker about three miies above Germanton. where they found a battery of four pieces and three regiinemts of infantry, There they en- cumped, and next meoning the column moved forward towards the Greut Falls on the Poto- mac aud encamped after marching eome 15 of 20 miles; and the neatimormng at 1 o'clock the | command ‘fall in” was given, butina whisper, the coluinn was formed and moved on in strict silence, not a word spoken, not a sound to be heard eave the measured tread of the infantry and the rumbling of the pondrous wheels of the Arullery. The column arrived on the banke of the Potomac and wae drawn up in live of battle | before day-ligbt, and as soon as it was clear light the batteries commenced firing across the liver on a large building and surrounding en- campment occupied by the enemy. At the firet tire they rushed out like rats leaving a burning house and sought safety in flight. The distance was about one thousand four hundred yards and the firing of the Parrot guus was beantiful, and the velocity of the projectile was double that of the six pounder, they firing with five second fuses and the Par- toast “ aeweey S707 a ‘ rot gune firing two and a half seconds, and the shells exploded at and in the house and in the camp, and the gharp reporis of the exploding shells sounded like artillery replying *o our batteries. Thoogh it was the firs: time that many of our wen had been near a battery while engag~ ed in firing and expected every moment to be fired on, yet they served the guns with as much coolness as if they had been on drill, presegying ailenee and attending (o their re- spective duties promptly. Each piece fired about twenty seven rounds, making in all about ove hundred aud sixty-two rounds thrown at the house and camp. About half an hour after the battery ceused firing they left the position they then occupied and some little time (about half an hour) after, the enemy commenced fir- ing on the position they formerly occupied di- recting their shots at the ground. Again the command “ march’? was giv- en and the column moved forward on its return, and at sun-down fired a gun in compliment to Gen. Banks’ column, next day (Tuesday) our detachment arrived in camp about 10 o'clock, A.M. in fine spirits. In the couree of the march the column passed near Fails Church, where there was a large force of Yankees, but they did not show themselves though they numbered three to one. Oct. 16, 186). To-duy our battery was inspected by Capt. Clairborn, who after a very minute examina- tion into the equippage, appearance and drill of the battery expressed himself as well pleased. There was heavy firing in the direction of Aquia Creek to day, and the report is circulat- ing that the Pawnee has been sunk in front of one of our batteries. IOTA.

Late advices state that our forces, or a part of them, have made a forward movement down the Peninsula. The Yankee pickets were driven in with Great dismay. Two or three days ago a small detachment of our cavalry captured twelve of the enerny and se veral wagons. The enemy's fleet is still at Newport News, and in full view of our forces. Lixcoty’s Secretary of War is becoming impatient with the expense of bands of music for the army.

Let ine pour forth one long, last wail, For alt I’ve injured thee. I. Would I eould feel, as once I did, The proud and lofty air, With which I took my Mother’s Sword, I never moré can wear. 006 I see it now with reeling brain! The blade is gory red ! Each drop stands out, a bruther’s name, I’ve numbered with the dead. IV. Oh ! take from me the maddening sight ! The penne I grasp ; It stings me with the serpent tooth, Deadly as poisonous asp ! Vv. The vision’s gone! Again I’m calm; Reflecting nuw with tears, Iu six short mouths I’ve blasted all, The hopes of eixty years. VI. Ambition, with constrictor coil, Did all affection sinother, Aud bade me join the Tyrant cause, To subjugate my Mother ! Vil. With cold ambition, came the twain, This mother tie to sever; Envy and Hatred! sped the shaft, To blast my heart forever. VIll Its seared atid withered ; like the tree The lightning bolt has riven. On Earth there is no peace again— Woald I could hope for Heaven! IX Oh, Lee! how proud thy soul must feel, Your Mother's heart you cherished; Epo ! prayers ascend for thee / Whilst ull my bopes are penshed. x And Davis, too, like Washington, Is blessed in every heart— Wives, Mothers, Sisters pray for him— I took the Traitor’s part. XI My heart grows sick, or I could call On many a brilliant name Inscrided in characters of gold, While mine is writ in shame. XII. Scorn andcontempt, and cold neglect, Are the reward my treachery won ; With honor, health and power destroyed, Virginia! thy revenge is done. XIII Then cease, Virginia, to upbraid ; Could you but look within The heart remorse is gnawing at, You’d pardon e’en my sin. From the Suuthern Field and Fireside. RHYMES FOR THE TIMES. So you're gomg, darling, going Where the bloody Mars is throwing His ensanguined bolts around ; Where his victims, dead and dying, Are beside each other lying, On the cold unhallowed ground, So you're leaving, darling, leaving Me to die with Jonely grieving, When my loved one’s gone away + O! will nothing. nothing keep you? Think, 1 ne‘er again may meet you— Oh, be merciful and stay. Stay! oh stay! and [ll caress you; Hlere’s my bosom, let me press you— What! And dare you disobey ? Why, sir, force those teurs to glisten ? Be you silent, sir, and listen What my throbbing heart would say. Know you then, sir, that Tlove you, Next to Him who rules above you, And my own unspotted fame, Wi.b a love as life undying, Ever cheerful, never sighing, And in every fate the same. Yet, sir, had you seemed to waver, As your country’s humble saviour, [ should then your love resign 5 For I swear no slave can be, Either sweet or dear to me, in the widest range of time. Now, howe’er, before you go, love, On to ineet the dastard tue, love, Come enjoy a last embrace— Ah! how sweet to love's enjoyment ? Would it were the sole employment Of our woe-begotten race. But bebold yon proud invader— Hark! our country calls to aid her Every son upon her soil. Be you first with life to shield her ; Be you last with life to yield, or Ne’er return to claim the ‘‘aporr.” J.H.S. Montgomery, April, 1861. THE STAY LAW.—We learn from the Greensborough Patriot, that at the session of the Superior Court for Davidson connty, Judge Baily presiding, the Judge on Tuesday morning announced that he should take up the civil dockets as usual, without any reyvard to the stay law, and that unless deteudants had some good cause of continuance, they would be required to try their cases, die stay- Jaw notwithstanding. Defendants on this cir cuit will therefore do well to take this, and be ready for trial We learn that Judge Howard the same views in regard tu the Stay-law, and perhaps Judge Osborne Judge Saunders, and other of the Judges, in deference to the stay law jaye not taken up the civil docket. The question as to the constitutionality of the law will of course come up at the first term of the Supreme Court , but whether that term will commence on the 30th day of De- cember, or the Monday of June, will depend upon the respect which the Judges of the Su buoliece of also holds preme Court will accord to the recebt act of The Charlotte Democrat ex- ye Stay Law passed | | the Legislature. presses the opinion that tl by the late Legislature, will damage the poo- | ple of the State more than the present war Hillsborough Leecorder. | x sop vies eee COUNTRY, $-Mit , Standup bere Bill Snooks and keep coat tall ont of your mouth; at is independengs? .

Let the members of the “old wreck” be carefully excluded— they learned too many tricks in Washington to be safe representatives of the people. Give us fresh men—give us pure men—even tho’ ea they may be intenor to those who brought ruin upon the country. Chive us hooest men, of fair ability, and we have nothing to fear. The Legislature of North Carolina set a good example the other dav in the election of Confederate Senators—one a Whig and the other a Democrat—neither of them con- nected with the “ old wreck” —both new men so far as we know—one vamed Davis, tue other Dortch. This gives us sume hope. We would inuch rather look upon these unfamil- lar names than the names of those who would awaken reminiscences of past party trickery and corrupuou. Hurra tor Davis and Dortch ! We have never heard their name connected with any disreputable transaction, Give us hew weu all the time, and we will at least lave some reasou to hope for a pure and honest administration of the Governinent.— With broken-down hacks in these high pla- ces. we should know that destruction would sooner or later overtake the new Govern- ment— Athens Watchman. Our Treasury Notes—Judge Hyamr, of the Loutsiuna Sugar Planter, dves not often “get mad,” but when he does—when he does —well, for example : We have heard with mach mortification thet our treaeury notes have, in some places, been held ata discoant, aud in others, have been refused altogether. This is no time to mipce matiers or words with any man guilty of so contemptible an action, either in one or the other. If we have no fatth in our Govern- mept now that we have marched so fat upon the road to independence under its ekillful guidance, when, inthe name of common sense, shall confideuce be established? Does the action of such miserable wretches, who refuse our treasury notes, or who desire to have them discounted, arise from purely mercenary mo- (ives, or from fear that they willneverbe paid ? If the former, their souls are so small that a millon might dance upon a mustard seed, and cannot, at heart, be trae friends to the South; if the latter, we advise that they be iminedi- ately ordered to jeave for a more genial climate where their patnotisin will be better apprecia- ted—under the Government of Abe Lincoln Livery man who refuses to receive treasury notes in payment of all just dues, or even in ordinary business transactions, at par, is no friead to the South, and should be dealt with accordingly. AGRICULTURAL }*ainks.--We suppose there will be no Agricultural Fairs in any of the Soutbern States this year. The Kx- ecutive Cominittee of the Mecklenburg So- ciety have decided to hace none in this county this year, and we suppose there will he none held in the State. The Presideat of the South Carolina Avricultural Society publishes a notice stating that there will he no Fair in that State. Tnasmuch as all the money that can be spared will be need- ed for war purposes, we think it best to ormt these exhibitions the present year. When the war closes we hope all the Soci evies will be revived.— Charlotte Democrat, The only money that does a young man good ie what be earns himself. A ready made fortune, like ready made clothing, seldom fits the man who comes into possession. The pleasantest things in the world are pleasant thoaghts, and the greatest art in life is to have as many of them as possible. Excess of ceremony shows want of breed ing.

The sum of $90,452 was ordered to be detributed amo: if (the various counties of the State, payable on | (he first day of April next. In consequence of the demands upon the State Treasury jor war | purposes at this ume, it was found impossib'e to | furnish the chairman of the ditlerent counties | with the money immediately after the declara- j) ton of the distribution. It ishoped and believed {that the schools will be continued with the as- surance that the expenses will be met in April.

B. Rod- moan,* and remarks—“it 1 made up, without exception, of gentleman and through prosecution of the war, aud op- tho are for a full posed to @ reconstrucuion or re-union with the North under any pretext, under any cir- cumstances, o: at any time.” And again it adds, “this being our ground, we will give this ticket our support, feeling that it alone goes into the field as the distiuc- tive exponent of this decwWed position.” The State Journal employs language amounting to about the same. Do either or both of these journals mean to assert that any of the gentlemen on either of the other tickets are unsoand on the above propositions? And, if so, who are they ? How, when and where did they commit themselves against a thorough prosecution of the war, and in favor of a reconstruction of the Union with the North ? * Not elligible. = “se Yankee Prisoners—Six hundred and six- ty-one yankee prisoners, nearly al! of them | taken at the Leesburg battle on the 21st, were landed at Richmond, Va.. on the 24th. Col. W. R. Lee, of the 20th Massachusetts Regiment, and Col. Cogzell, 42d New York, are among them. There were in all, 22 com- missioned officers; the remainder, non-coni- missioned officers and privates. Aiong them are 149 men belonging to the t5th Massa- chusets Regiment; 183 of Col. Baker's Cali fornia; 92 of the 42d New York; 72 of the 20th Massachusetts; and many, in smaller numbers, from other regiments. Lt. Col. T. C, Johnsen, of 19th Georgia, and Capt. J. B. Andrews, of the 4th Regiment North Caro- lina State Troops, was in charge of the guard detailed for the safe conduct of the prisoners to Richmond, They were all quartered in Mayo’s tobacco factory, which had been pre- viously cleared and prepared for their recep- tion, There was one negro among them, who was recognized as a slave belonging to a gentleman livingia Richmond. He denied, however, ever having seen Richmoud before. He was acting in the capacity of servant to an officer, when taken. It is a notable fact that nearly all the pri- toners taken at Leesburg, were either Irish or German. Very few of the irrepressible | conflict yankees are found among them. oo “>.

A traveller cannot be too careful of his baggage, and ought never to lose sight of it unless certain of its safety.

The Charlotte Bulletin, a democratic paper, in speaking of the propriety of discarding old party prejudices in the selection of candi- dates to Congress, says: It ought not to be asked wae he a Douglas or Breckinridge Democrat, nor was he a Bell man, for if that question was to be raised, the | representative men of the Whig party can es- tablish the best claim, and we are one of those who regard it simple justice in making the ac- knowledgement that. at least in Mecklenburg ‘; county, perhaps in the entire Congressional District, if not the whole State, the leading men of the Whig party have shown more true patriotism, by their acts of charity, and volun- teur'ng as soldiers to fight the battles of their country upon the tented field, than has been exhibited by the leaders of the Breckinridge or Douglas parties.

The Wowizers and Barksdale’s Mississippi Regiment were not engaged, but held in re- serve dung the action The enemy reported to have crossed the Potomac near Goose Creek. They made two attacks on our position, and at ihe list repulse , broke tutu disorder, ard sought refuge ina wild and confused flight. Our Joss in killed and wounded ix not, as yet, kuown certainly, but estimated to be about three hundred. Our wounded will be trans- ported, as far a8 possible, to this city, and are expected to arrive to-day.

In the thickest of the fight, the Mixsis- Sippi Coops, throwing aside their muskots, knap- on hats, charged upon the yankees with Bowie hoives. making the attack with yells of rage and excitement. The enemy made three distinct attacks Apon | ourtines. At onetime in the action, forthe space of about twenty minutes, the battle raged with the two opposing forces within thirty feet of each other, amid the stanning reports of musketry and ocensionnl éssaye of the enemy to reach us with the bayonet. The attempts to charge bayoneta en our lines was held in check each time by the steady fire of ourtroope; | I | | | \ | | | | | | | | The representation will be as follows, being in the taue of one member for every j thousand of population, ou the Federa! basis, counting three-fifths for slives.

At the commencement of the war, the Yan- kees predicted that the South would not be able to raise a respectable army, andif one was raised they said we could vot maintain it three months. But they are now beginning to real- ize their mistake, and are bothered to know where the Southerners get the sinews of war They are surprised. The Albany (N. Y.) Journal makes the fol- lowing anxious inquiries : Where do they get them ?—The rebels are gathering large ermies. In Virginia. in Mis- ; souri, in Tennessee, in Kentucky, their host» | number tens of thousands in every encounter / with Federal troops they have brought vastly | superior forces into the field, anc those forces have been, with few exceptions, very tolerably armed and equipped. How are these vast masses aggregated ’— By what machinery are they moved about ! Where does the muney come from? Our ex- penses run up to $1,200,600 per day ; what must be theirs with thetr almost countless le- gions of troops? We have not given the Southerners credit fororganizing ability. Hitherto they have been dependent upon us for most of the products ot skill and genius. ‘They have produced next to nothing except the fruits of the soil. And yet they confound us with the promptnese and en- ergy of their movements! They have no pow- derimills to speak of ; where do they get ¢hat / They have no foundries worth mentioning, and Nortolk is pot on the bauks of the Mississippi : where do they get their ordnance ? The answer isobsious. While the Govern- ; iment Was inuintaiuing # nominal blockade, ship loads of arms aud munitions from Europe were landing at Southern ports. Where the inoney came from—how much friendly assist- ance they received from Foreign Consuls— what assurances of moral if rot material sup- port they obtained from ut least one Great Power—are things as yethidden. Let us econ- fess that the enemy have displayed extraordin- j ary tact and energy. Senator Wilson Resigned—-A Short Cam- paign.—Senator Wilson has already grown tir- ed ot iniitary hovors. Vhe Northern papers say he has resigned the Coloneley of his “crack regiment” aftera cempaign of about two weeks The Northern papers erticise the act very se- verely. and Compare it to the conduct of the famous Pennsylvania Reginent who tled from bull Run, on the plea of the expiration of their enlistment, in the very sound of enemy’s can- non. The Boston Courier, a strong Republi- can paper, says Wilson os a Pallstaffian warri- or, and that his campaign las ‘turned out, as usual, in words—words.” We quote fiom the Courier :-—[Rich. Examiner. The telegragh tells us that Colonel Wilson bas resigned the command of the 22d Massa- chusetts Regiment, and Captain Saxton, of the regular army has been appomted his suc - cessor. Nobody will regret thie change, since it gives the services of a vatuable officer to the country, mstead of the ** word of promise” one But we must remonstrate against the whole proceeding by which this United States Senator has nade use of his of- ficial and party miluence to raise men. whom it was constantly alleged he was to lead to the field, and whom he now leaves at the very outskirts of the camp. It ts neither more nor less than a sheer sinposition. The public has been bubbled intua surtof artificial enthusiasta about Col. Wilson’s regiment—one of our con- temnporaries, we remember, during the process of recruiting, declared him ‘f the most popular manin the State ;” uw splendid charger was precured for him vy subscription; regimental colors were formally presented to the troops, noder his angpices; und yet, the whole, 60 far us he is concerned, FO soon, turns out, itt usual, tu have been ** words—words.” De Mortuts—Itn a late number of the Memphis Appeal there is a summing up of the fate of Lineoln’s Generals that oucht at least to stimulate those who have taken thei places to daring action.

OUR SEA COAST, Lincoln’s fleet which has been !ying in Hampton’s Roads for some days, and which it was supposed would attack our Coast, it is stated by persons from Norfolk, left on Friday Jast and went up the Ches- apeak bay. Its destination is supposed to be Yorktown. It would hardly venture upon the Potomac. Troups from Georgia and this State, are moving towards our Coast. Active pro- paratfons are going on both in Gen. Hill’s and Gen. Anderson’s divisions to be ready for the enemy.. Weare glad to leara that the people of Newbern and Craven are aroused to the importance of being ready. Large numbers, we learn, went down to the forts the other day with shovels, axes, &c. Better Jate than never. We have no information of any formid- able force on our Coast as yet. At last ac- counts all was quiet. [et us meet the en- emy at the threshold the next time, fully prepared to repulse and destroy him. Let us have no more Hatteras affairs. Something about Sugar.—We find in the commercial column of the Memphis Appeal, of October 20, the annexed statement of thie price of sugar in New Orleans on the previ- ous day, (the 19th,) and while it will afford consolation to buyers, we are not sure that it will be satisfactory to purchasers and con- sumers of sugar in this market : “There was a fair demand on Thursday, especially for the better grades, with sales of 600 barrels, at 3 cents for low common; 34 to 34 cents for mixed lois; 44 to 54 cents for fair to freely fair; these are the grades mostly used by consumers; 7 cents for yel- low clarified, and 10 cents for choice white.” What does it cost to convey sugar from New Orleans to Richmond? Certainly noth- ing like the extreme price charged here by the merchants.— Richmond Dispatch. [= We are requested to state that Gen. Dargan has withdrawn from the canvass in the 7th Congressional District, and that the remaining candidates will speak at Carbonton or The Guif on Wednesday the 30th inst., at Pittsborough on Thursday the 3ist, at Hadley’s Mills on the lst Nov., at the St. Lawrence on Saturday the 2d, Also, that Ool.

J.A.R. At the residence of her father Mr. Luke Barber, in this covuty, Oct. 17th, SARAH ANN BARBER, aged 28 years. The deceased waga representative of a large class of our noblest women who deserve res- pect while living, and tu whose memory, when they are dead, reverence should be shown. She lived in the retirement of the domestic circle, with wo temporal ambition, but to dis- charge faithfully the duties of her station, and with no higher earthly pleusure, than to be useful to her parents and others around her. For the last seven years, she wos a cousis- tent member of the Episcopal Church: and during a lingering illness, by frequent commun- ion with God, and by using the means of grace, she made high attainments in the christian Virtues. She gave those signs of repentance and of faith, which are often manifested in the christian’s life and death. From one thus living, thus dying, pious friends could only part, while in the midst of grief, yet with feelings of religious joy, and with cheering hopes of micet- ing her in Heaven.—Com. Oct 30th, at the residence of Mr Jacob Correll, in Rowan County, Mrs. ELIZA- BETH, consort of the late Mr. L. Sheck in the b2d year of her age. The deceased was born in Hagerstown, Wd., but for several years previous to her death had been residing in Rowan, N. C. At an early age she connected herself with the Lutheran Charch, of which she remained an exemplary member until removed by death from the church uuilitant to join the church triumphant. She possessed a cheerful disposition ; and, notwith stancing her age, the fuculties of her mind con- unued strong and clear until a very short time before ber transit from time to eternity.

Lyon, Gen. Seigle, Col. Totten, and Capt. Sturges, of the U. se ee with everlasting infamy. Throughout all the battle they displayed po colors over any position they held ; in no line of battle formed, in no sive of march, did the perfidious wretches ever un- fur) their much beloved Stars and Stripes, while in every regiment and ov every part of the battletield waved the Confederate flag. Notonce did the cowards fling to the breeze a banner that would indicate their nationality, but, on tbe contrary, de- ceived us by hoisting, on one or two occa- sions, when we pressed them close, a Con- federate flag they had found in Churchill's deserted camp. They also, on every occa sion as we approached them, cried, “don’t tire, we are friends!” This they did as our regiment first advanced, and then, as soon as our men threw up their pieces, per- tidiously fired into us. They also bad got hold of our badge —a red one on the left shoulder; they also passed our men seve ral times to gain a new position, crying, “hurrah for Jeff, Davis.” This was remark- ed all over the field, and if they had not doue it, but few would have escaped being prisoners. This is opposed to all rules of civilized warfare, and worthy only of the blackness of Abolition hearts; and (ren, Lyon richly deserved the death he met, aud bis men the unburried fate that leaves them rotting on many hills, __ MOVEMENTS AND SPIRIT OF THE WAR.

O,Eternal God!In power most mighty, in strength mostglorious,without whom the horse and chariot 1s in vain prepared against the day of battle,we beseech Thee,from Thy high throne of majesty,to hear and receive the hearty and bumble prayer which,on bended knees,we the people of Thy pasture and the sheep of Thy hauds,unteiguedly ac- knowledging Thy might and our weakness,| do now pour out betore Thee,on behalf of these Confederate States,their rulers and, their valiant men of war,who,by Thee in-| spired,have put their lives in their bands,and | at this time do oppose themselves against the | malice and violence of such as bear a mortal, hate against us.! we pray Thee,to help aud defend them. Be Thou their Captain,to go in and out be- fore them,and to lead them in their way. Teach Thou their fingers to fight aud their bands to make batde.The Generals and Chieftains bless with the spirit of wisdom, council and discretion;the soldiers with minds ready to perform aud execute.Gud them all with strength,and pour out upon them the spirit of courage.Give them,in tue day of battle,hearts like the hearts of lions,invincible and fearless against evil,but terrible to such as come out against them. When the enemy doth rage and danger ap- proach,be Thou,O Lord,a rock of salvation and a tower of deteuce unto them.Break the enemy's weapons. as hate them flee befure them.Thou seest, O Lord,the malice of our adversaries,how they bear a tyrannous hate agaiust us,COl- tinually vexing and troubling us,who would fain live at peace.Stir up,therefore,O Lord, Thy strength,and avenge our just quarrel. Turn the sword of our enemy upon lis own head,and cause his delight in war to be his own destruction.As Thou hast dealt with him heretofore,so now scatter lis forces,and spoil his mighty ships,wherein he trusteth. So shall we the peuple of Thy inheritance, give praise unto Thy uame,aud,for Thy great mercy,give thanks unto ‘Thee in the great congregation.Yea,the world shall know,and the nation shall understand,tu the praise of Thy glory,that Thou alone deteud- est them that trust in Thee,and givest victo- ry to nations.Hear us,O Lord,our strength in these,our prayers,fur Jesus Christ's sake.

FEARS OF THE CAPTURE OF WASH- INGTON—REMOVAL OF THE PUB- LIC ARCHIVES.

Whether the rumor had any foundation or not, we think the act advisable as.q matter of pre- caution.‘The chances of battle are uncertain, and if the Confederates do aetually give battle to our forces,the safety of the buildings in Washington isin imminent peril,whether the Confederates guin or lose the battle. If we gain,and,through the casualties of the fight,the public documents are destroyed, we lose whut cannot be restored ;if they guin the day,and get possession of the treaties and other important State papers,the foreign pow- ers are as likely as not to recognize the Con- federates as the Government de facto. HEAVY FIRING ON THE POFOMAC— IMMENSE NUMBER OF VESSELS BELOW OUR BATTERIES. A Fredericksburg puper of yesterday says: Yesterday evening,about two hours before sun-set,heavy firing commenced up the Poto- mac in the direction of Evansport,which lasted about unhour.We did not lear.the cause of it.

A SCHOONER ATTEMPTS TO RUN OUR BATTERIES ON THE POTO- MAC. The Frederncksburg Recorder of yesterday Says: On Friday afternoon about two o’clock a schooner which,with a large nurmber of mer- chantmen,was lyi..g just above the Evansport batteries,was torn trom her mooringsand camedriftingdown.So soon as those on board found out what had happened they attempted to put back,but findiny this impossible,they ‘tack- ed”and prepared to yo by.In doing 80,our batteries opened upon her and she was struck no less than four times.This was doing re- markably well,when it is recollected that the vessel was being driven before a gale at the rate of sume twenty knots an hour aud was a very sinall concern.It shows that our boys Know how to shoot. THE SITUATION ABOUT LEESBURG.

Kee THE FEDERALS ADMIT THEIR VAN-| DALISM. Now snd then the Federals udmit their Vandahsn wud brutality,and the Northern |press,so fur from rebaking conduct of which the most blood-thirsty savage has never been guilty,muke at their pleasure to epploud and , rejoree over the disguating details.Deserib- ing the march toward Warsaw,iv Missouri, the correspondent of the Chicago Tribune writes: In iny last letter I epoke of the inwoguration of the foregoing system and the disappearance of feathered bipeds,&c.,from the face of the earth hereabouts.On the road,on Tuesday last,we saw regimentsof troops passing along, three-fourths of the members of which carried dead turkeys,geese or chickens on their hay- onets.Nearly every army wagon we passed contdined acouple of hogs or calves.otre than all,many soldiers killed stock at farms,and left nine temthe of the eardkes to:rot on SA of inasked batterier| ore the ground.Houses wete catered and deple-ted of Victuals ;whether the o¢cupauts were.Unioniats or Disunionists,the soldiers seldomstoppedtoinqaire.Assuming an authoritynevergiventhem,they plundered everything tnd anything.Such a state:of things couldnotlongexistwithoutbringingdisgraceupon our army and gurcause. —_--r Gen.Beanregard’s Letter.

A strange error occurred on our side the day after the battle,for which some one is responsible.‘Two thousand of the enemy crossed the river to endeavor to retrieve the fortunes of the grand army by attack- ing at another point.Finding the battle over and disastrous to their side,these men attempted to recross,but found themselves completly cut off.Had av attack been made upon them every man must lave surrendered.They were allowed to take their time in crossing the river.

War is a desolating scourge uider any circumstances,but it is made doubly so, when we have to contend with enemies both in front and in the rear,—enemies without and enemies within,Taere are many ways to give “aid and comfort”to the enemy,besides speaking in derogatory terms of the Southern Contederacy,as we have beard of some doing,—besides dis- couraging and hampering all proper meas- ures to carry on the war,—besides acting as spies for the enemy or designedly in any way aiding and abetting him.Whoever contributes in any way to impoverish the masses of our people—to weaken and bam- per them in obtaining 4 livelibood—to grind the poor and needy,or whoeveraids or abets by extortion,speculation or fraud upon the government,to cripple 1s finan- ces at a time like this,is an enemy to the South and a friend to Lincoln.These are plain words.It grieves us to be forced to believe,that there are to be found men in every county in the South,who are do- ing this very thing.‘Ihe press and the public are crying out loudly against it,and yet these unconscionable skinflints glory in their shame,or glory in the thousands of dollars they are making,to the injury and oppression of the people and the govern- ment.If such conduct were to be practic- edatthe North,mobs would soon take matters into their own hands,and their retribution would be terrible.But we re- joice that we live in a Jand where,in the main at least,the laws are respected.We deprecate and condemn any resort to brute force to cure av evil even of such magni- tude.The remedy is always worse than the disease.Yet it is plain trom the tem- per manifested by the people at the extor tion which is now carried on by the spec- ulators in articles of prime necessity,that the tether has been stretched to a kicking point.They had better relax their bold before the crash comes. Salt,bacon,sugar,cotive,Kc.are artic- les which the people must Lave.Cloth- ing they cannot do without;yet it is plain that there is a systematic scheme of public plunder going on in the country by sharp speculators,in regard to all necessary ar- ticles of food,except corn and wheat,and every species of cotton and woollen goods. Who they are we do not know,but the centreof this ruinous scheme is at Rich- mand,Va.,we believe,from whence it is carried out into almost every neighborhood of the South.Something must be done quickly to arrest it,Our Convention and Legislatures must bring the strong arm of the law in some form to bear upon this in- iquiltous and rujvous scheme.The parties engaged in it,have done and are doing nothing to promote the success of thy arms | of the South,but are crippling every effort | the masses are making to drive out the | Yankees. Salt is an article which in a few weeks most be greatly indemand,The packing season for pork and beef is at hand.The supply of these articles is stall enough in all conscience,but if the people cannot get | salt at a living price,these articles must become alarmingly searce.And yet this article seems now to have gotten entirely into the bands of the speculators,and the evidence is positive,that they have piven it a simultaneous lift throughout the coun- try. | “Some days since salt sold in this piace at $7 per sack,One individual,we hear, bought it all,and held it at $10 per sack until he sold at that price to another per- son,who,we learn,olds it at S15 per sack.” The Petersburg xpress of the 18th “We understand that this article has reached the price of fifteen dollors per suck in this’city!This is a gloorny announce- ment and we exceedingly regret that we have occasion to make it,but there is no use in cuncealing the fact.” The Lynchburg Virginian says: “We have good reason to believe that there is some concert amongst speculators in salt.A great deal of this article is stor-ed in this city and in Richmond.A few days ago it was selling for ten dollars a sack ;later it went up to twelve fifty ;yes- terday tifteen was asked,and one House, that had a layye amount iu store,was vo tified from lichmond not to sell any at resent——the same partics predicting that it will be twenty dollars betore the end of the week!Now,what is to be the ethect of this salt panic?If present prices are maintained—to say nothing of a higher tendency——there tnust be a Yreat Was:of provisions for Jack of salt.Or,if the far- mers can pay such prices for this article, the cost of salt provisions of every kind will be vreatly augmented.”| What better evidence can be required | than the above furnishes,that the specula- tors have combined to enrich themselves,| at the risk of rnining the people and de-| stroying Southern independence?|ee | Good temper is like a sunny day—it sheds a brightness over everthing.It is the sweetener of toil and the soother of disquietude. }inent towards these men have had the | The Raleigh Aegistur of last weck says :| | ae Sangre area It is not unjikely that the great crisis of the war is vow approaching.Since the battle of Manassas the North has made berculese efforts.They lave felt that they bad no tite to lose;that they must work “while it is called to-day ;”that their fate hereafter as a Government and people de- pended upow conqrering us;aud that,if it were to be done at all,it must be done before the winter checked uperations.Theyknewjustaswellaswedidthepressure of the cotton question upou England,aud were vowilling to trust her beyoud January to play the part of neutrality.It is by no means improbable that Mr.Sow- ard has received an intimation from therepresentativesoftheleadingforeignpow- ers that,while their schemes of conquest and re-uniting the old Confederacy by war would not be interferred with this fall,they could-only have allowed them a litn‘tedtimeinwhichtheywouldbepermittedto proseeute a policy so injurious to their io- terests.Be this as it may,it is plain enough that for the last three months every ener- gy and resource of the North has been brought into play to accumulate the requi- site forces to crush us.Nor are those forces contemptible.The tleet which sailed the other day from Hamp- ton Roads was one of the most numerous, formidable and well]appointed that ever spread its sails to the breeze.The arma- da which menaced the British Empire io the days of Elizabeth was feeble im com- parison.According to our anticipation,it strikes at South Carolina-—the place se- lected being about equi-distant between Charleston and Savannah.Almost sinul- taneously with this we hear of the attack upon General Pillow in Southeastern Mis souri,hear Kentucky,aud next comes the lntelligeuce that the traitorous minions of the enemy bave burnt the bridy our line of railroad in East Pennersee,in order to embarrass our military communi cations.We believe that the whole was preconcerted in order to distract our ener gies and attention by mulupiied assaults, and that a part of the same policy will be attacks at every point where the enemy feels sufficientiy strony tu attempt it,and aud especially at Manassa.

As we Stated jo our last,the expedition was undertaken with the view of reconuoit- ering Uatteras,and,if,as was supposed, the fleet had been seriously damaged by the storm and the troops in a condition to |be attacked,the attack was to be made. ;The expedition left Newbero early on Mon- |day morning the 4th inst.with two or more vessels and about 400 troups,com- wauded by Col.Singletary.His design was communicated to Geo.Hill on Sunday afternoun,who,it is said,expressed his dis- !approbation of an attack upon Hatteras without fuller information,and thought it required great caution.Col.S.assured the General be should be cautious,but made no formal application for his con- |sent to leave,thinking it unnecessary.—— The expedition arrived at Beacon Island the same afternoon,at 3 o’clock.<A re- connoitering party was sent out that night, oe ascertained that Fort Hatteras had not been much injured,and the idea of a demonstration ayainst It was given up.-— |On Tuesday the Colonel discovered ‘an armed steamer ashore on a sboal beyond Ocracoke bar,making signals,and suppos- ing it to be the enemy opened fire on her. She ran up the French flag,when the Col onel sent 4 boat to make enquiry,who re- ported that it was the French Corvette Prony,Capt.DeFontanses,bound from Charleston to New York.After much Ja- bor and risk Col.Singletary succeeded with the aid of Com.Lynch in rescuing part of whom were first brought to New- bby Com.Lynch to Norfolk.The French Men express the highest gratitude to Col.

J.J.BRUNER, KDITOR AND PROPRIETOR, PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE. Jo the Congress of the Confederate States: The few weeks which have elapeed since your adjouruineul have brought us go neur the close of the year,thal we are now able to sum up its general results.‘he retrospect is such as should fill the hearts of our people with grati- tude to Providence fur His kind interposition in their behalf.Abundaut yields have re- warded the labours of the agriculturiat,whilst the manufacturing industry of the Confederate States was never &u prosperous ae now.The necessities of the tines have called into exist- ence new branches of mavufactures,and given a fresh impulse tu Lhe activity of those hereto- fore in operation.The means of the Confed- erate States for manufacturingthe necessaries and comforts of life within themselves increase as the coatlict contimues,and we are gradualty becoming iodependent of the rest of the world for the supply of such military stores and mu- yitious 4s are indispensable tor war.The operations of the army,svou to be par- tially interrupted by the approaching winter, have afforded a protection to the country,and shed a lustre upon its arms threugh the trying vicissitudes of iijuore than one arduuus cam- paign,which cucitle our brave volunteers to our praise and vur gratitude. From its commencement up to the present period,the war has been enlarging iis propor- uoas and expaading its boundaries,so as loin- clude new fields.The couflict nuw extends ‘rom the shores of the Chesapeake tu ihe cou- fiues of Missouri and Arazuna;yet,sudden calls from the remotest points for mititury aid have beem met with promptuess enoagh not ouly to avert disaster in the face of superior nutubers,but also to roll back the tide of inva- Non from the border.When the warcommenced,the enemy were possessed of certain strategic puinis and strong places within the Confederate States.They vreatly exceeded usiu numbers,in available resources,and in the supplies necessary for war.Military establishments had been long organized aud were complete;the navy,and for the most part,the army,once common wo both,were to their possession.‘l’o ineet all this,We had to create not only am army tu the face of war itself,but also the military extab- (shinents necessary tu equip and place it in the neld.It ought indeed to be a subject of grat- alation that the spirit of the volunteers and the patriotism of the people have enabled us,uu- der Provideuce,to grapple successfully with | hese difficuluies.A succession of glorious vic- torres at Bethef,Bull Ran,Manassas,Npring-. deld,Lexington,Leesburg and Belmont,hus enecked the wicked invasion which greed of gain and the unhallowed lust of power brought upon our soil,and las proved that numbers cease to avail When directed against a people fighting for the sacred right of self-government| cad the privileges of freemen.After mure than | seven months of war,the enemy have net on-| ly failed lo extend their occupancy of oursoil, by »w States and Territories have been ad-|i : eee |Danville,in Virginia,and Greeusborough,indedtuourConfederacy,while,instead of their threatened march of unchecked conquest,they have bceu driven,at more than one point,to issuine the defensive;and,upona fair coi-,route from parison betweeu the two belligerents as to men,| military means,and financial condition,the Coutederate States are relatively much stroug- er now than when the struggle commenced. Since your adjournment the people of Mis- wuri have conducted the war in the face of al- inmost uuparalieled difficulties,with a spirit aud success alike worthy of themselves and of the great cause in which they are struggling.—Since that time Kentucky,too,has become the theatre of active hostilities. forces have not only refused to acknowledge her rucht to be neutral,and have insisted upon making ber a party to the war,but have inva- ded her fur the purpose of attacking the Con- federate States.Outrages of the most des- potic cuaracter Nave been perpetruted opon let people ;sume ofhber most eaunent citizens have been seized and borne awey to languish a foreign prisons,without knowing who were The Federal | their accusers,or their specific charges made | against them,while others have been forced to ibandon their homes,families und property, and seck a refuge in distant lands. Minding that the Confederate Sates were about | tw be iavaded through Kentucky,ane that her people,after being deceived into a mistaken security,were unarmed,and in danger of be- cog subjugated by the Federal forces,our ar- iiek were merched into that State to repel the »nemy and prevent their occupation of certain strategic points which would have given them creat advantages in the contest—a step which was jnstified,not only by the necessities of self-defence on the part of the Contederate States,but also by a desire to wid the people of Kentucky.Lt was never intended by the Con- toderate Government to Ccouquer or cverce the people of that State;but,ou the contrary,tt wns declared by our Generale that they would withilraw their troops if the Federal Govern- lent would do trkewise Proclamation was tlmo made of the desire to respect the neutral vof Kentucky,and the intention to abide by ily anore and more palpably inpoesible.

The condition of the Treasury will,doubt- loss,be a sabject of anxious enquiry on your part.[am happy to say that the financial system niready adopted has worked well so far, and promises good results for the future.‘Lo the extent that treasury nules nay be issued.| the Government is enabled to borrow money without interest,and thus facilitate the con- duct of the war.This extent is measured by the portious of field of circulation which ‘hese notes can be inade to occupy.‘The proportion of the field thus occupied depends again upon the amount of the debts for which they are re- cetvable,and when dues,not only to the Con- federate und State Governments bat also to curporatiuus and individuals,are payable in this medium,large amount of it may be curcula- ted atpar.There is every reason to believe that the Confederate treasury note is fast be- coming such a mediam,‘The provision that these notes shall be convertible into Confeder- ate stock,bearing eight per cent.interest,at the pleasure ofthe holder,ensures then against a depreciation below the value of that stock. 1 and no consideruble full in that value need be feared so long as the interest shall be puncta- ally paid.The punctual payinent of thisiater- est hs been secured by the act passed by you at the last session,imposing snch a rate of tax- ation as must provide sufficient means for that purpose.For the successful prosecution of this war, ‘itis indispensable that the means of trausport- ‘ny oops and military supplies be furnished, ,ax far as possible,in such manner as not to in- terrupt the commercial intercourse between our people,nor plece a check upon their produc:| Yo this end the means of trans.|live energies. portation from one section €curcountry to the other must be carefully guarded aud improved. And this should be the object of anxious care | on the part of State and Confederate Govern- i ments,so far as they may have power overthe subject. We have already twe main systems of through transportation from the North to the South—one froin Riehmond,along the sea- board;the other through Western Virginta to New Orleans.A third might be secured by completing @ link of about forty miles between North Carolina.‘The coustruction of this com- paratively short line would give usa through North to South inthe interior of the Coafederate States,and give us access to 4 population and to military resources from which we ure how,iu w greal measure,debar- red.We should increase greatly the sualety and capacity of our means for transporting men and military supplies.If the construction of this road should,in the judgineut of Con- gress,ar itis in mine,be indispensable for the most successful prosecution of the war,the action of the Government will not be restrain- ed by the constitutional objection which would aitach to a work for commercial purposes,and attention is invited to the practicability of se- curing its early completion by giving the need- ful aid to the compuny organized for its con- struction and administration. It we husband our meane and inake a judi- clous use of our resources it,would be difficult to fix a limit to the period during which we |could conduct a war against the adversary whom we now encounter.The very efforts which he makes to isolate and invade us must exhaust his means whilst they serve to com- plete the circle and diversify the productions of our industrial system.‘The reconstruction which he seeks to effect by arms becomesae vot ‘only do the causes which induced us lo separate | still exist in full force,but they have been strengthened,and whatever doubt may have lingered in the minds of any must have been completely dispelled by subsequent events.If, ‘instead of being a dissolution of a league,it wowishes of her people a€soon ue they were | ‘ree toexpress their opimtons. hese declarauons were approved by me,and best effeets of into)Kentucky if it her people liberty of I should regard it as one of the re march of our troops lendin giving to Horee and #free opportunity to decide their wn deatmy aecording to ther own will.

Our people look now with contemptuous aston- ishment on those with whem they had been so recently associated.They shrink with aver- sion from ihe bare idea of renewing such u con- vpection.When they see a President making war without the assentof Congress;when they bebold Judges threatened because they main- tain the writ of habeus corpusse sacred to tree- men;when they see justice and law trampled under the armed heel of military authority,and Fupright men and inpocent women dragged to |distant dungeons upon the mere edict of a des- |pot;when they find all this tolerated and up- plauded by #people who had been in the fall |enjoyment of freedom but a few months ago— they believe that there must radical incompatibilty With such a people we may be be some between such a people and themb&elves content to live al peace,but the separation is final and for the independence we have asesert- ed,we will accept bo alternative The nature of the hostilities which they have waged against us,must be churacterized as bar- barons wherever it 1s understood.‘Uhey have bombarded undefended valages without giving notice to women and children to evable them lo escape,aud,in une snstance,seleria.|ihe Head of | upou non-combattants,have marked their fo- |rays along our borders and upon our territory. |Although we ought to have been admonished by these things,that they were disposed to make war upou us in the most cruel and re- |lentless spirit;yet,we were not prepared to |see them fit oat a large naval expedition,with the confessed purpose not only to pillage,but to incite a servile insurrection in our midst.|If they convert their soldiers into incendia- || | ries and robbers,and involve ue in a species of war which claims non-combattants,womeo and children as its victiins,they must expect tu be treated as outlaws and enemies of man- kind.There are certain rights of humanity which are entitled to respect,evenin wur,and | he who refuses to regard them,forteits his claims,if captured,to be considered as a pri- |soner of war,but must expect to be dealt with us an offender against all law,human and di-| vine.But not content with violating our rights, under the Jaw of nations,at home,they have extended these injuries to us within other ju- risdicuons.The distinguished gentlemen whoin, with your approval,at the last session,1 com:| missioued to represeat the Confederacy at cer- tain foreign courts,have been receutly seized by the captain of a United States ship-of-war,| ou board a British steamer,on their voyage| from the neutral Spanish port of Havanu to| England.The United states have thus claim ed w general jurisdicuon over the high seas,and entering a British ship,suiling under its coun - try's flag,violated the nghis of embassy,for the most part held sacred even amongst bar- barians,by seizing our ministers whilst under the protection and within the dominions of a neutral pation. These gentlemen were as much under the Jansdicuonef the Briush Government upon that slip and beueath its flag as if they had been on its soil,and a claim on the part of the Uni- ted States to seize them in the streetsof Loudon would have been us well founded as that lo ap- prehend them.where they were taken.[lad they been inalefuctors and ciiizens even ofthe United States they could not have been ar- rested on a British ship or on British soil,un-| less under the express provisions of atreaty and according to the forms therein provided for the extradition of criminals. Bat rights the most sacred seem to have lost When Mr.Faulkner. States to France,|all respect in their eves. a former Minister of the U commissioned before the secession of Virginia, his native Neate,returned im good faith to | Washington to settle his accounts and fultillall the obligations into which he had entered,he arrested and imprisoned to New York,where he now is The unsuspect- ing confidence with which he reported t his to ful- was perfidiously Government was abused,and his desire fil his trust to them was used Co his injury Tu conducting this war,we have sought no aid and proposed no alliances offensive and de- fensive We have asked fot a recs nized place in the great family of nations,but in doing 80 we have demanded nothing for which we did not offer 4 fair equivalent.The advantages of intercourse are mutual amongst nations,and in seeking to establish diplomatic relations,we were only endeavouring to place that intercourse under the regulation of public law.Perhaps we had the mght,if we had chosen to exercise it,to ask to know whether the pnnciple that ‘blockades to be binding, musi be effectual,”80 solemnly anoounced by the great Powers of Europe at Paris,is to be generally enforced or applied only to particu- lar parties. When the Confederate States #t your last session became a party to the declaratian re-| affirining this principle of international law,| which has been recognized so long by public.| iste and Governments,we certainly supposed | that it was to be universally enforced.The customary law of nations 18 made up of their | practice rather than their declaratians,andif | euch declarations ure only to be enforced in | particular instances,at the pleasure of thore | who make them,then the commerce of the | world so far from being placed under the rega-| lation of a general law,will become subject to the caprice of those who execute or suspend it at will.If such is to be the course of nations in regard to this law,it 18 plain that it will thus | become a rule for the weak and not for the strong. Feeling that such views must be taken by the neutral nations of the earth,I have caused the evidence to be collected which proves com- pletely the utter inefficiency of the proclaimed blockade of our coast,and shall direct it to be laid before such Governments as shall afford us the means of being heard.But although we should be benefitted by the enforcement of this law,so eolemury declared by the great powers of Europe,we are not dependent on that en- forcement for the snecessful prosecution of the wer.Asloug as hostilities continue the Con- federate States will exhibit a stendily merens- ing capacity to furnish thetr troops with food, clothing and arms.Tf they should be forced | to forego many ol the Juauries and someof the comfortsoflife,they will,at eust.have the abroad w- comimg more and more independent of the rest of the world If,in this process.labourin the Confederate States should be gradally divert- ed from.those great Southern staples which | oso much of the conunerce of consolation of knowing that they are thus be-| | have given life t mankind into other channels,so as to make them rival producers instead of profitable cus. tomers,they will not be the only or even the| chief Josers bv this change m the direction of their industry Although tt os true that the |eotton eupply from the Southern States contd only be totally eut off by the subversion of onr aocial syatems yetit i plan that along eon tinuance of thie blockade might,by a diversion of labour and an tnvestioent of capital other employments,80 douimish the sapply as to bring rnin upon all those interests of foreign countries Which are dependent on that staple. For every Iabourer who is diverted from the culture of cotton in the South,perhaps,four pand gentlemen,cousidering the hour,as- |Uer, jaud eguipped. sympathy with and for the South, times as many elsewhere,who have found sub- sietence in the various employmeute growing| outof its use,will be forced,also to change| their occupation.' While the war which is waged to take from us the right of self-government can never at- tain that end,it remains to be séen how far it may work a revolution in the industrial system of the world,which may carry sufferingto oth-erlands as well as to ourown.Inthe meantime, we shall continue thie struggle in humble de- pendence apon Providence,from whose search- ing scrutiny We cannot conceal the secrets of our hearts,and to whose rule we confident- ly submit our destinies.For the rest-we shall depend upon ourselves—tiberty is alwaye won where there exists the unconquerable will to be free,aud we have reason to know the strength that is given by a conscious sense,not only ofthemuaynitude,but of the righteousness of our cause.JEFFERSON DAVIS.

He announced that Kansas must and would come with Missouri,for Missourians would never lay down their arms until it was sure.That she stretched from the western border of Missouri to the Rocky Mountains,was an empire within herself, and necessary to the South.He also said that Brigham Young desired to come with the South,and on certain conditions would do so,and furnish 50,000 warriors.The eloquent speaker concluded by alluding totheeffortsmadebytheSouthtoremain in the old Union in peace and on terms of equality with the other sections,and when it was ascertained that that could not be done,of her efforts to avert the existing war.He declared that the North could not celebrate the 22nd of February,fur that was the natal day of a rebel and se- cessionist—nor the Fourth of July,for that was the day on which the instrument was signed by the Secessionists deelariug the secession of the Thirteen Colonies from the British crowo ;and that to be consistent the Lincolnites would have to pull down the monument on Bunker Hill,tor that was elected in honor of Secession.le exhorted the people not to be depressed or dispirited on account of the loss of Hat- teras and Port Royal,for they were anim- portant in themselves,and of no avail to the enemy,and asssured his audience that within three months money would be more abundant than it had ever been,his reason being that by a general understanding among the banks,at a given period with- in that limit,they would discount treely.

A Good Suggestion.—In to pun- ish the North for commencing ang carry- ing on the present upholy an@ unptovoked war,zit is suggested that the plant&ts of the South make no more Cotton next year than will do for home consumption—only enough for Southern manufacturers,lo- stead of Cotton,make grain and raise meet for market,all of which will be in great demand.

The Star-Spangled Banner.—It ig men tioned as a fact worthy of note,that every inale descendant of the author of this song, (the “Star-Spangled Banner,”)liable to military duty,is now in the Confederate Army.At least fifteen members of the family are at this time in arms against the tyranny at Wasbivgton,and rightfully claim tbat they are figbting for the princi- ples to which tha’flag was orignally dedi- cated. New Substitute for Coffee.--The Shrevesport (Louisana)Southwestern says: “Lately we have read many recipes for ma- king coffee,but we see none come up to the one we offer—throw away the coffee-pot.sub- stitute in its place a bowl or deep plate full of milk andmush.Itis far better,more nutrituus than the beet of coffee.We have tested it, therefore can speuk advisedly of its merits.— We go in for home consumption.” Dissolation of Copartnership.

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Com- mercial,writing from Camp Red House, Wiofield,Westera Virginia,gives the fol- lowing rather graphic picture of the Un— ion men in that section of the State : But the most curious,miserly set of be- ings Lever saw,are the Union men of Western Virginia.I have never seen but one who would expend a dime toward the reservation of the Union.I have seen i one woman in Western Virginia who would bake a biscuit for a sick soldier, without first asking if he had any change; and during our marches |never saw the first drink of water offered without first asking for it,and nearly in all cases the man would uot move from his leaning posture on the fence,but would point to the well and say,“There it is,sir,help ourself.”If a rail is missed from a Un- lon man’s pile,near a camp,he gues to the Colonel for its price;if a cabbage ora tur- nip from the garden has disappeared,the old woman sends to the Colonel for the value of it. The people hereabouts have an idea that every Zouave carries Uncle Sam's treasury in his knapsack,One just now toid me that be was going to ask for two hundred dollars,as sume one bad broken his fence down.Some cattle had got in and de- stroyed some corn.The land,corn and fence would not fetch fifty dollars if offer— ed for sale.A little hauling was required by our commissary.[t was to gt his provisions up the river bank.It took an hour and a half,with a yoke of steers,hitch-| ed to asled.The man modestly asked| four dollars.He was told that the pile thousand Zonaves before him had left their homes,their all,to protect such as bin.

We take the fullowing from the Lynch- burg Virginian: SALT EXTORTION—A PUBLIC MEETING. It is proposed to hold a public meeting at Dudley Hall,this afternoon at 4 o'clock, for the purpose of organizing an association to check-mate the salt extortioners.The plan ig to raise a fund,to purchase weekly at the Salt Works,in Washington county, &quantity of salt,to be supplied to the cit- izens of Lynchburg aud the Farmers round- about,in such quantities as may be needed, at first cost and charges of transportation. Salt can be bad at the works for seventy- five cents a bushel,beyord which,we are informed,it is the settled purpose of the manufacturers not to advance. If this scheme can be carried into effect —and we see nothing to prevent it—it will leave the speculators high dry,and we shall see some of their boarded treasure coming up from the “vasty deep”of their cellars to be thrown on the market at reasonable prices.The same gentlemen who “have no salt in market”now,will tind their occu- pation gone.Let there be a full meeting, that public judgment may be invoked up- on extortioners generally,and salt extor- tioners in particular.It will have a whole- sume effect;and as storms purify the at- mosphere,a little storming by the citizens en masse,May give Us a purer atmosphere than that which has bred the contagion of extortion in this community for weeks past. Come out!people of Lynchburg! let your voice be for war!War upon the Northern engmy,and war upon ali those practises by our own citizens,which tend and to paralyze the energies of the people in the ternble struggle that Is upon them. You can create a public sentiment in your midst that the sordid and soulless specula tor dare not disregard. out hke men.Better act now,when the evil nay be corrected in the outset,than permitit to assume such proportions ats inay provoke a more terrible remedy.— Puble opinion is ommipotent;let us give ita voice to-day,whose echoes may long areas destitute of patriotism and humanity,as av Egyptian mummy.

If a well issunk anywhere in the Ar- kausas bottom,water is found as soon as the water level of the Mississippi is reach- ed.When the Mississippi goes down the water sinks accordingly in the well,The owner of a saw-mill,some twenty miles from the Mississipp!,in Arkansas dug a well to supply the boiler of his engine,dt- ring the late flood.When the water re- ceded,his well went down till his hose would no longer reach the water,and tinal ly his well was dry,He dug a ditch to an adjacent lake to let water into his well; the Jake was drained,and his well was dry avain,having literally dravk ten acres ot Water in less than a week,The interence is,that the whole valley of the Mississipp1, from its banks to its highlands on the other side,rests on substratum which absorbs the redundaut waters,and thus prevents the degree of accumulation which would have long since have swept Now Orleans into the Gulf,but for this nrovision ofnature,ty which alone her sate ty is attributable. “In fact af the alluvial Lottoms of the Mississippi were like the shores of the Ohio, the vast plain from Catro to New Orleans, would to day be part and parcel of the (rulf of Mexico,and Whole valley a fresh water arm of the sea,Were the ve- Cittercot, a porous tue olomeal character of the valley the constructions of levees,coufiaing the water of the Mississippi to its channel, would cause the riseip the river to become so yreat at the South that there couid nol vees burl.The currentbesutheienthe {Wottid be stronuet and accuinulation of wa ter vreater as the levees are extended north of us.

We are not disposed to continue or pro- mote a controversy in regard to the late Electoral vote in this State.Nor will we bandy epithets with those,who,from bad habits,if not from bad breeding,are too prone to indulge in unjust,false and vul- gar criticism upon the characters,,action or motives of gentlemen,whose high mor- al standing places them far above the reach of the shafts of malice.But it may be proper for us,as we have unwittingly aided in placing the names of the gentlemen,which appeared on the “People’s Ticket,”in a position to be aimed at and traduced by those who are unworthy to be named in the same connection with them,to give a word of explanation.The first electoral icket which we saw published in the State, appeargg in the Raleigh Register,from an anonymous correspondent.Zhat ticket, we presume,formed the basis of the other tickets which afterwards appeared.Find- ing that the members of the Legislature had failed to suggest a ticket,and that the people bad let the time ship for doing SO, the Standard,with the sole view of har- monzing the feelings of all,proposed a ticket without consulting any one,which we hoped would be acceptable.We were unfortunate im our suggestions,not sup- posing that any dishke to us or to our course would necessarily produce,in a mat- ter of that kind,a diversity of sentiment, —(uor cotemporaries,the Register ane Crreensborough M@atriot,at once raised the names of Messrs,Graham and -_isragfor bthe State at large instead of Messrs.Reid aud Pool which we hat named,and the Charlotre Bulleton,we believe first brought out the Rodman ticket.We deprecated the division,but could not help it.We found that others regretted it,and were awnxious to secure such unanimity as would result,af possible,in presenting but one ucket to the people of North Carolina,in order to prevent the bad moral effect upon our Northern enemies of exhibiting divi- slon jo the election. Without our knowledze or co-operation, several gentlemen,we understand,met ip this City,framed a ticket,and tendered it to three politeal papers here,under the sig- nature of *Many Voters.”We at.once expressed our acquiescence,provided one or both would do-so.We are positively assured that no gentleman whose name ay peared on that ticket,was consulted di- reculy or ndirectiy about it,and,so far as we know,not one of them took any inter- estor concert.whatever in promoting its election, x yamong Indeed,so general was the wish the and friends of that Oicket,that there should be but one ticket,and that all political or party feel- ing should be removed on that oceasion, that,so far we knew,no one felt:any con- cern about even having tickets printed or ciculated,except what was done by our own press which we did almost entirely as a gratuity—not more than 7,500 tickets having been ordered from us,5,000 ot those hy a contemporary, Under such circumstances the miserable clap crap of the “Holdew ticket,”and the “Graham and Brown ticket,”thrown out by partizans,made such slight impression upon us that we scorned to notice it.The mtimation the veket failed beeause of the unpopularity.of two or three names on it, or because the people of North Carolina doubted their loyalty or patriotism,is not only basely false,but the intimation is a libel upou the good sense and patriotism of the people of the State.We have drawn no individual compansons between the gentlemen who composed the two tick- eta,nor will wey but we may justly re- mark that no men in North Carolina en- joy more fully the confidence and esteem of their fellow citizens,as men of honor, integrity,political wisdom and high bear- ing,than those upon the *People’s Tick- et conservatives who have been so unjustly maligned and traduced in certain quarters.—Rad, Standard. |Military Erecution—A gentleman from |Wonehester informs os that a soldier named Miller.a private iu Captain Wenderson’s gue- rilla company,was executed on Tuesday last, near that place,for shooting his commanding officer,with intent to kill. man was led forth from prison about 12 o'clock The untortunate aec ompamed hy (lergymen,and conducted to 1alnllin the nerehbeorhood,where the sentence hh Tktoh was then blind-tolded and made to sit upon of the court-martial was read m his coffin;direetly after which the signal was given,and the squad detailed for the purpose fired upon dim.‘Two builets piereed his heart,and he struggle Throughout the trying scene he exhibited the utmost fortitude This is one of the painful imeidents of war, which we have thns far been called upon to record but seldom.—Richmond Dispatch, a a ed without oa and met lis fate bravely. es oe ee ee t But howis it with purselyes4mau(aya and mEey examine himselfin the Gospel.True,wébavé not,as @ people THE CONVENTION, This body was engaged to a Jaga hour on Friday.in consideration ang pagsing an ordinance,entitled “An ordinafice to pro port of government,and for the issue of|2°wish or desire y treasury notes for the purpose of paying|"04%if they will let us alone.We have the publie debt,and purchasing supplics for |Bever stolen their property nor refused to the military forces employed for defence|P4Y them therefor,when purchased,vou!

the whole country west of Fay- ette Court House.The camp is establish- ed at an abandoned watering place,for- merly known as the Gray Sulpbur Springs, where there are fifty or sixty vacant cab-ins and a large hotel building;altegether capable of accommodating from seven hundred toa thousand men.Ample ac- commodations are thus afforded for the sick,and abundant facilities are at handforrenderingthemainbodyofthetroops comfortable. The locality is near the New river,in the low grounds of which,for a long dis-tance of fiftv or seventy-five miles above the camp,immense crops of corn are rais- ed.Itis thought that supplies may be taken down to the camp in boats from the central depot of the Virginia and Teones- see railroad;in which case a great deal of laborious transportation will be saved,and the animals of the army be afforded rest and time to recruit and be put in good or-der by the spring.‘Tbe camp is in a cor- ner of Monroe county,one of the best beef counties in the State.Thus meat and bread are abundant and immediately in proximity with the army. Peterstown is nearly central between the Virginia and Tennessee rallroad at Newbern,and the great turnpike road coming in from the Kavawha Valley by way of Lewisburg and the White Sulpbur Springs.The army at thac point will therefore be in position to oppose an ad- vance of the enemy,whether by Lewis- burg upon the Virginia Central road,at Jackson’s river;or by way of Fayette and Raleigh Court House,upon the Virginia and Tenvessee Newbern Wytheville.

We continue our summary of Northern news, ex!racted from late advices from New York, Baltimore wid Washington, our dates from the North being up the dth Vustant : LINCOLN AND AND THE “CONTRABAND” QUESTION. It is pretty certain that a serious dis- ayreetcnt has spruuy ap between Lincolu aud his Secretary of War in relerence to the radical and perilous recommendations ou the question of slavery embodied in his report to Congress. The New York Herald, iw alluding to the subject, says t It appears that Mr. Cameron, in dis re port, as submitted tu the Prestdeut to laid beture Cuugress, recomended, to its fullest extent, the war policy of Colouel Cochrave’s late extraordinary speech at Washington in regard to the saves of Southern rebels. Colonel Cochrane, it os thus matitest, did speak like one having wulhoniy j for we are dutormed trom source which cannot be questioned that Mr. Cameron's proposttigus, intended tor Voustess, as irom President Lincolu’s See- retary, Compronetided, uader Certain con: tingencivs, Che arming of Southern siaves ayslust Uber rebel tas ers, and embraced this other revolutionary idea, to wits that ia Whatever Mauner the slaves of rebels may be used by the government, as con- trabuud of war, they are in fact berated by the acts of their rebellious masters, aud should never be restured to bondage. ltis nu wouder that President Lineoln was brought to a stand by these uovel and extreme propositions, No wonder that he does not lke them. We are advised that General MeClellan, upou this vital issue, is su earnestly iu favour of the war pobey Andicated in the late couservative proclama- ton of Geueral Dix to the people of the Eastern Shore counties of Virginia as to | hint of resigutoy should a different line of action be declared by the governinent, ‘Ttus is a powertul voice trom the army, | and it bas doubtless bad uo little influence over the mind of Mr. Linewln in his ex- ceptious to tiese peculiar slavery propusi- tons of Mr. Cameron. The Washington correspondent of the New York /eruld wiites— Secretary Cameron’s report goes as far | on the subject of slavery as did John Cochrane's vuw fainous speech to his regi- ment, and goes further than did General Fremout’s more famous proclamation 10 Missoun. He ennunciates the policy of the emaucipauou of slaves in the rebel States, of the converting to the use of the hational vos erumendt all property, whether slave or otherwise, belouging to rebels, of resoruicy to every military uieans to put down the rebelhun, aud eveu of placing arms iu the bauds of negrves for Chat pur- prose. , ; Av important Cabinet meeting has been beid today jo reference to the subject. The President seclbs determined lu adhere faithfully and unswervingiy to the line ot policy whieb be proclaimed in bis inaugu- ral, and ou which be bas since conducted his administrauon—that is, to put down the rebellion by using all the national re- sources, but at the s:ine Gime to matotain inviolate the constitution and laws of the United States. Between Ins policy and that of the Secretary of War there secins to be a wide yulf. One cr the other must yield, and [ need not say that a will not be Mr. Lincoln. The Beeretary of War is not only at variance with the President in) regard to the policy uuder which the war is to be conducted on our side, but is also, T have to at variance with the Conninidenit Olieiweelusne And eto tile disposition of the slaves In the regions they nay be, or have been, subdued by our arts, General McClellan’s views seem to coincide wilh those of the President. McClellan recognizes the necessily adopting some well defined and uniform mode of treating Uns subject, but is deeid- edly opposed to that proposed by Secretary Cameron. {[ understand that be bas it in eontemplation to issue a general order in a few days to the commanders of the sev- eral military departments, enjoining upon them the observance of the course of polt- cy embraced in the recent proclamation of General Dix, and also in that of General Halleck. Any attempt to carry into ope- reason heheve, ration the sentiments of Secretary Cam- eron, with reference to arming the slaves, HIS CABINET—THE ARMY | be } CS ot SALISBURY, N. C., DECEMBER 16, 1861. would be inevitably attended with most disastrous consequences, Tt would proba- blv lead to the resignation of General Me- Clellan aud the general disorganization of the army. The danger is well known to the President, and is one of the most pow: erful motives actuating him to a disap- proval of the views which Secretary Cam eron desired to enunciate jn his report and | bo make prevail in the eonduet of the war, In connection with the same subject the Washington correspondent of the New York Times writes ; The deepest feeling aud almost excite ment prevails among the Union members of Congress from Western Virginia, Ken tucky aud Missoun, in regard to the future | pohey of the Adiministration, ‘The ost | prominent amoby them, and those who | have laboured most varbestly trom the be }yluning ayamst the Southern rebellion, j declare that the Inauguration of the Abo hun poliey of the war, and a movement lookiny to the arming of the slaves, will | Instantly throw the three States named Hinto the Southern Coufederacy, aud) anni- Iilate the yreat national armies in Ken- ducky and) Missourt—in fact, all national organizabou west of the Alleghany moun Carts.

Is it nothing that we find the government of the United States coolly proposing the confiscation of everything that we have in the world, and assuining the abolition of slavery, and the employment of negroes for the destruction of their masters as meas— ures on which differences of opiuions are no lohyer possible ¢ The South is vet much, but too hittle, at their of a fell Vcontain maternal enough for a coneerued locations vreater wisdom than that whieh tells us over to despise an enemy.

These are to be tried by drum head court martial and hung on the spot. Persons taken in arms | will be imprisoned during the war, From the London Morning Herald. THE TREASON OF THE NORTH. Lincoln and Seward, their secretaries and their venerals, have all held the same language 5 have al asserted, as solemuly as words can atten anything, that they have no desire to interfere with slavery ; that they are fighting, net to emancipate the negroes, bul to enforce a constitution which binds the free States to assist in mantaning and perpetuating the system of tegro servitude--a constitution which embodies, in a most carefally worded clase, a distinct aud unequivocal fugitive slave law. The men of Pennsylvania and Massa- chasytts cared as a rule very little about the “domestic institution” of the South uot this wae broke oat. The merebants of New York were bitler partisans of slave rv. Bat the ironmasters of Penussivanin and the mauutacturers of New Enylaud have taxed the South for their bem fit so lony that they cannot bear the theaght of long the power of doing so for the future, the brokers of the Empire City are furious at the prospect ot Seely their lacrative trade diverted to Charleston, or New Or- leans, and carried on with Eoulish eapital, Phe last of money has had teu tines mote to do with the sudden patriotisin of the North thau their Jove of liberty.” * ae hivery act of Mr, Lincolu’s, since the tuking of Fort Sumter, has been a viola tion of that” fundamental law of the An- glo Saxon race beyoud the Atlantic’ —or would be so, but that the coustitution has ceased to exist, aud, therefore, cannot be correctly said to be violated. Secession, perhaps, is uvoconstuititional, but coercion rsequally so.

But for the convenience of those Who may @ut have the ttine or iuelitation to do so, We present a brief summary of its Colilenis, The message opens with a recognition of exisung “ pohtcal troubles,” but ex presses gratitude to Goud tor the prosper- ous harvests avd general health, Ib reference to the action of the seceded States, the President anticipates the possi- bihty of au appeal for foreign aid, or of foreign interposition; and though admit: Ung the Domnterterence of Hurupean pow ers hitherto, i is deemed expedicut lo sug gest the arming and turtitying the North ein ports and the lake cuasts to be prepar- ed tor any contiogency WW the future. Suyyvestiou is also made for co operation with Keutucky and certain districts 10 Poeutessee and North Carolina avalust the seceded States, aud the huiding of a rail roid vu aid of the purpose. Indemuity Is recommended in the case of the Brust ship Perthshire, for illegal detention under the blockade. The recognition of Wayti and Liberia is approved, ihe revenue from all sources for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1861, was $80,835,978, and the expenditures for the satbe period $84,578,834, which with pre- Vieus balance in treasury, left.a balance of twy and a quarter milious, The revenue for the frst quarter since, ending Septem- ber 8014, 1s $102,632,609, and the expen- ses 398.239.7453. For the estimate for the three quarters ensu.oy, aud for 1863, Con- gress is referred to the report of the Secre- tary of the Treasury. It is alleged as a giaulying fact that these expenses are not beyuud the resources of a loyal people.— luis also added that the wumober ot troops ollered for the war is beyoud the require- ment of Congress. The recommendations of the Secretary of the Navy for certain Improvements 10 that arm of the service are urged upou congressional attention. Vacancies existing on the bench of the Supreme Court are referred to, and delay iu appolntnents ascribed to an unwilling: uess to do injusuce to the South; at the same time the President regards the North as having a superior claim. Certain mod- iticauions in the system of the Supreme Court are recommended, The revision or coditicauion of the acts of Congress 1s advised, A plau tur the temporary operation of courts Ww the tertory reoccupred by the authorities of the Crited States, in the se- ceded States, is recomended, especially for the summary restitution in the case of repudiated debis, Authority to miaae final Judgiment iu the Coart of Claims as) pre- setited to the consideration of Congress.

Reference is made to the behef on the part of the South that they would have ibe sympathy of a large portion of the people worth of Masou and Dixon's line. | Phe error is said to bave exploded, » bile | Delaware, Maryland, Missourr and Ken— | tucky are claimed to lave vindicated their loyalty to the Federal Government. The retirement of Lieut. Gen. Scott is alluded to, and the appointment of Ma). Gen. McClellan as comipander in chief ot the army, is spoken of as a popular as well as executive selection. ‘The message closes with a sort of con- troversal disquisition of certain principles enunciated by a late committee of the Vir- wipia Legislature, on suttrage and modifi- cation of popular government, and some capital and labor, and commends the na- tional cause to a firm and earnest reliance upon Providence for success, remarks upon the relative importance of | j wilitia duty.

LD AX friend wries to us to know Whether pustmasters and mail carriers are required to perform militia duty. We an- swer, they are not. We know of no post- taster, or Mall carrier, or route agent in this quarter who is required to perform It will be seen, by reference to the 4th section of the militia Jaw, that postinasters and mail carriers are expressly exempted, except in cases of invasion or in- euirection. The names of these persons are, of course, enrolled, and if the militia should be ordered out to repel invasion or suppress insurrection, they will have to perform duty ; but, upon a careful exami- navon of the law, our opinion is that for the present they are pot required to per- form mila duty ; therefore, if they do not attend dnl, they are not liable to be fined. itis true thatthe Governor has ordered weekly drills of the militia, and it may be that the inference is that the State is inva- ded, within the meaning of the militia law referred to; but this is a mere suggestion, and is, we think, unfounded.

Ransom's Regiment.—A portion of Ool. Bansom’s splendid regiment of North Oarolina Cavalry, as is generally known, per- formed a brilliant action near Manassas on the 26th November. 120 of his men, led by the Colonel and Major Gordon, went out on the hunt of some Federal Cavalry who had been marauding in the neighborhood. They soon got news of them, and taking their track eame upon them near the village of Vienna. The Colonel told his men that the enemy was olose at hand. and he want them to show now of what sort of stuff they were made. They then rushed forward to the point occu- pied by the enemy, and as soon as they came im range, fired upon then with their rifles and carbines. The voice of Colonel Ransom then rang out along the line, * charge boys, charge ;” and away they went, with a shout that made the welkin ring. On, on they dashed. The Yankees wheeled and fled; but our North Carolina boys pressed on, each man striving in his own way and on his own hook, to secure his prisoner. The enemy had scattered like patridges) The chase was kept up for several miles, and to within dan- gerous proximity of the enemy’s lines. In due time, nowever, our men came together with their prizes. They had killed 2, and se- oured 26 prisoners, likely fellows, and mostly native born Americans, and took about five thousand dollars worth of property —all with- out the loss of a man. se - Murder.—Sunday evening, 8th December, was blackened by a murder in Cabarrus coun- ty. A young man named Murr, killed Johu Cope, a middle aged man. Murf has con- fessed to the crime, and says he did it in self defense—that Cope shot at him, and swore he would kill him; and believing he would do it, he first knocked him down with a stick and then cut his throat. We will not relate all the circumstances as detailed to us by one who conversed with Murf on the subject. The case will be duly investigated hereafter by the Court, and it is not proper to prejudice the public mind with a relation of its incidents before that shall have been done. It is a singular fact that Cope, some 15 or 20 years ago, was tried for the murder of Sohn Briggs, and acquitted on the ground of justifiable homicide. Now he has fallen by the hand of violence, and his destroyer comes forward with the same plea. A man named Ludwick, and Cope’s wife, were present when Cope was killed. Lud- wick has runaway. And the long silence of Mrs. Cope on the subject—trom Sunday un- til Thursday—adds mystery to the case, sup- posing her to be innocent, unless it shall! here- after be satisfactorily explained. The Knoxville Register says the agents of the Gevernment have purchased in Kast Ten- nessee alone not less than 600,000 hogs, and it believes that East Tennessee has this year produced hogs enough to supply the Southern army for twelve months.

GREAT EXCITEMENT IN ENGLAND. From the South Carolinian. English Opinion on the Arrest of the Confederate Commisstoners. Ricamonp, Dec, 18.—It was announced in — the House of Delegates, this morning, that a despatch had been received from Norfolk, stating that a special English messenger bad arrived out in the steamer Europa, which landed at Halifax, demanding the surrender of Messrs. Mason, Shuell Pustis and Mactarland. She brought eight thousand stand of arms and a large amount of ammunition, which were landed at Halifax. Despatches have been received in high official quarters here, announcing that England demands the uncon- ditional surrender of Mason, Slidell, Eustis and Macfarland. Special despatches to Lord Lyons demand of him to call upon the Uni- tcd States Government for the transporting to England of these parties, or to demand his passports at once. France co-operates with England. Europe is in a blaze of indignation at the course pursued by Wilkes, of the San Jacinto. “Behold bow brightly breaks the morning.” The Norfolk Day Book extracts trom the Baltimore Sun and New York /erald, of the 16th. Each paper publishes late foreign news received at Halifax on the 15th by the Euro- pa, which sailed from Liverpool on the 30th, via Queenstown the 2d, where she was de- tained until Monday by the Government.— She has the Queen’s messenger on board, with despatches to Lord Lyons. On the 30th her Majesty held a private council at Wind- sor, where three of her Majesty's ministers were present, previous to which the three ministers attended a Cabinet Council at Lord Palmerston’s official residence. IMPORTANT FROM EUROPE, Sanpy Hook, December 12.—The steamer Hansa, which sailed from Bremen via South- ampton, on the 27th ultimo arrived to-day. A steamer from St. Thomas arrived at Southampton on the 28th, bringing the in- telligence that Messrs. Mason aud Slidell had been forcibly taken from the British mail steamer Trent. Liverroot, November 27.—The most in- tense excitement exists here to-day, under the intelligence of the taking of the Southern Commissioners, Mason and Slidell, from the British mai! steamer Trent. An indignation meeting was promptly held, and resolutions carried by acclamation, denouncing the insult and calhng on the Government to maintain the dignity of the flag. Some prominent merchants spoke aguiust precipitate action, and said that the matter had better be left to the Government. The feeling of indignation is general. The Hansa brings the Liverpoo! 7imes, of the 28th, which contains an account of the meeting in Liverpool. The following placard yas posted up on ‘Change: ‘ Outrage on the British flag! Southern Comunssioners torci- bly removed from a British Mail Steamer.— A public meeting will be held in the Cotton Sales Room, at three o'clock.” The room was crowded to excess. The Chair was oc- cupied by Jas, Spence, who read the follow- ing resolution : Resolved, That this meeting having heard with indignation that an American Federal ship-of-war has forcibiy taken from a British mal steamer certuin passengers who were tra- veling peaceably under shelter of our fag from ove neutral port to another, we do earnestly call upon Government to assert the dignity uf the British flag by requiring prompt reparation for this oturage. The resolution was received with great en- thusiasm, and was advocated by the chairman, who considered that he was expressing the feeling of the people when he said that it was the duty of the people to press on the Govern- ment the imperative necessity of the vindica- tion of the honor aud dignity of the British name and flag. John Campbell considered that there was no reason to doubt whether the facts related and acted upon by the meeting were in reality a breach of international law, and referred tothe opinion of the law officer of the crown, being in some measure inclined to show that the step taken with respect to the Southern Cemnis- sioners was justifiable under the existing state of international law; and urged the propriety | of postponing the consideration of the subject until to-morrow. Mr. Low sustained Campbell's view ‘The chairman suggested, to meet the objection of Campbell, to strike out the words, © requiring prompt reparation for this outrage.” Thus amended, the resolution passed almost unant- mously. Several merchants expressed their views, after the adjournment of the meeting, that its action was premature. The ship Helen, from Charleston, arrived to-day. with a cargo of rosin and turpeutine Capt.

The excitement with reference to Mason and Slidell continues unabated. The Paris Temps repeats the statement that Napoleon has tendered his services as mediator. The Paris Patrie has an official foreshadowing of the disposition of France to recognize the in- dependence of the Southern Confederacy, if England sets the example.

Letcher, the Mayor of the city, and a large concourse, with music, and escorted them through # portion of the city, when the crowd increased to thousands. Mayor Mayo introduced Mr. Faulkner, when he made « short speech, detailing his captivity, imprisonment, and present position on parole, and referred to the position of England and the United States, and said if Lincoln recedes from his present status—the Mason-Slidell affair—a furious abolition sentiment North will over- whelm him; and if he does not, they will be involved war with England. Mr. Falkner said he was @ fellow-prisoner, at Fort Warren, with Maxon and Slidell; said they never wavered, but felt confident that England would promptly vindicate the outrage on the flag.

SECOND DISPATCH. Ricumonp, Dec. 19. A special dispatch tothe Richmoud Dispatch, dated Norfolk, yesterday afternuon, reports the reception of the New York papers of the sth. The steamer Africa was detained a few days to take out Lord Lyon’s response to the dis- patches from the British Government. The Queen’s messenger, and the messen- ger from Minister Adams, left Boston on Tues- day for Washington. ; English dispatches were sent in great haste to the Admiral commanding the North Amer- ican Squadron at Havana. The privateer Sumter overhauled the ship Montmorency, from Bath, Maive. She was ransomed for £20,000, and allowed to proceed. The New York Herald says thatin three weeks not a dollar will be left in the Federal! Treasury, while no provision is made to replen- ish it. Wall street isin a perfect confusion. Stocks have greatly declined, with an entire stagnation of business. The city authorities urges the immediate en- rolling of all young able-bodied men in the city A report was brought to Richmond this inor- ning that two Yankee regiments mistook each other near Fairfax on Wednesday, and piiched in, killing some handred or more, aod wounding | many. Both retreated, while the Confederates coming up took sixty prisoners. The wounded will be brought here. Ricumonp, Dec. 19.—The Examiner pub- lishes dispatches from Norfolk this morning, announcing the universal suspension of pay- ments at the North. Minister Adams demanded his passports up- side of Green River bridge, were attacked by jon the issuing of the Queen’s proclamation.

The Federal Secarities fell two per cent.. | | Missouri fel) three per cent. Salipetre advanced 15 cents per |b. The tone of the Northern press is universally for wur. They say England must be humbled— that war is unavoidable. Ricumonp, Dee 21.—<A portion of our Poto- muacarmy suffered defeat yesterday. At 4 o'clock, yesterday morning, Gen. Stuart with 150 cavalry, the Jeff Davis Artillery, first Kentucky Regiment, tenth Alabaina, eleventh Virginia and 6th South Carolina Regiments, being a portion of General Longstreet’s Brig- ade. lett Centreville to attempt the capture of a Federal foraging party at Drainesviile, six- teen miles from Centreville. As they neared the place they found the Yankees 15,000 strong, and Gen Stuart with his 3,000 attack edthem. ‘fhe fight lasted the greater portion ot the day, when the Confederates retired — Our loss is thirty killed and an equal number wounded. Among the killed are Col. Taylor, of first Kentucky, and a Major of the same Regiment; the Llth Virginia from Lynchburg had sev- en killed and twelve wounded. A third field officer was killed, and another had his arm shot off. Four of the Tennessee flying Artil- lery were killed at their guns and several wounded. General Stuart sent to head quarters for re- inforcements, and last night the balance of General Longstreet’s Brigade, 14 Regiments, left to give the Yankees another fight. Noth- ing heard of the operations to-day. - 2 — The Troubles of the Enemy—A gentleman of intelligence, recently arrived from Washing- ton city, says that the feud between the fac tions, of whom Cameron and MeClellan are the respective military heads, is bitter and violent, to a degree of which we have a very inade- quate idea here. Cameroun and his backers are elrenuous in demanding that the war shall be conducted on emancipation iders, while McClellan opposes that policy to the extent of declaring that he will resign his position if or- dered to enforce it. McClellan is thus far sup- ported by Lincoln. The pressure upon McClellan, requiring him to advance his lines, is also said to be very great and almost irresistible. The Abolition politicians are reinforced in this demand by the New York capitalists. ‘* What more does he want!” they ask. If he cannot advance now, they argue that he never willor can. A suc- cess of some sort is with the Abolitionists a po- litical, and with the money-lendors a financial necessity. If MeClellan would stand still for- ever, the world will not, and the independence of the Confederate States will soon be acknow- ledged and established by default. McClellan, however, knows that, in a mili- tary point of a view, he has much more to lose by 4 defeat than to gain by a victory. He is, doubtless, also afraid to trust his often-whipped men before the admirable army of Johnston und Beauregard, not deeming that he has an equal chance to win the day. Whether be is to be trampled by those who urge him, or van- guished by those who withstand him, remains to be seen. The impression in Washington is, that he will choose the chances of a fight.

The public acts of the Lincoln Governmeny have rendered it in the eyes of the world the most Infainous despotism now existing in the civilized world.

CALDW EBL. Attor ney at Law, and son of the Hon. D. F. Caldwell. The announcement of the decease of this most esth mable gentleman, will awaken ip our community a upk versal sentiment of sorrow. The Jong and p.inful af fection which terminated his life, borne as it was with patience, fortitude and submission, invests the evens with additional sadness,—while we deplore a calamity which has removed from us one endeared with so many Descended from a family which has reflected the bignest honor on the State by mental endearment and varied public se& vices, Mr. Caldwell had inherited these most remarka- ble qualities To a disposition trusting, amisble and dor and truth. These qualities, in the intimate nssocia- tion of professional life, had attached to him with ties of sinevre affection the members of the profession , and it is just to add, had given him in the cowmurity a unk versal popularity—a popularity not won by effort oF importunity—but yielded as as)cntancous tribute to® good heart and pore life. Mr. Caldwell had enjoyed the opportunities ofa good education which had beeu dilb- geutly improved. Before applying himgse.t to the study of the law, he had explored a wide range of literature, which yielded the resources of a refined taste and liber alideas. Under the guidance of that eminent jurist, his father, he bad devoted himself with diligence to the profound study of the principles of legal science. I this pursuit he had been eminently successful, and had not only understood the principles of law as a seiencs, but had iastersd its practicaldetails. The only imped iment toeminent success was his singularly retiriog and unobtrusive temper. This difficulty was fast disappear ing before the exigencies of an increasing practice, and would only have served ag an ornament to distinctiod and excellence In a community like ours, it is not to be supposed that a subject as prominent as the christian religion, cou have escaped his attention. On tha coutrary, that im portant subject had in early life received diligent apd | careful inquiry, and he had examined the truths of the holy religion in the light of Its able defenders and ex positors, It is a source of unspeakable comfort that fp the protracted and racking malady to which he Was subjected, he found it his chiefsvurce of consolation and hope.

On the 28th of October, a circular was is- sued from this Office to certain counties on our coast, requiring the Militia to turn out once a week. ‘The continued threatening of our coast by the enemy, and the recent course of lawless and untrue menon our Western border, make it necessary that the requirements of that circular be extended to the whole State. Every company iu the State will, therefore, be assembled once a week, for iuspection, instruc- tion and drill; aud will be required to appear armed as the law directs, and with some am- munition. The State expects every man to do his duty; and the Governor will not fail to enforce this order with all the power vested im him as Commander-in-Chief. ‘The Militia can only be called out fur actual service by the Governor, or by seven Justices, as provided in the 8Uth section, ‘Militia’ Revised Code. The Governor's order willbe given through this Office, w the Generuls, or in special cases, to commanders of regiments, or companies. Wheueverthe Militia are called into actual ‘service, unk6s absolutely necessary, not more than one-third shall be called beyoud the limits of ther county The commanding officer making the cell, shall discriminate in favor of those persons who are in feeble health, or whose connection with public rmstitutions, or other peculiar employments, shall require their | presence at home.

The government is now in the market pay- ing turty per vent. premium tor gold, denmand- ed by speculators in one of tie border States for provisious; the German Jews are wend- fog uorthward, bearing with them the pre- Gous inetals; aud-an iMicit trade (winked at by personages high in autherity) is in process estublishinent along our coast. Merchan- dise, to the amount of millions, has been sent across the Potomac from Maryland within the last few montus, aud bas been paid for in gold. Trade is to be opened at Hatteras, North Carolina, at Beaufort, South Carolina, and at other Sonthern points; the Yankees will have nothing but gold, or cotton. To vbtain the gold a high premium must be paid, which debases Contederate paper; and then, When Confederate notes are given by the ple tor “arucles of necessity,” it need not doubted that an exorbitant price is de- manded. A Mr. McPhail, a tailor, is the facile Pro- vost Marshal at Baltimore, and shares “hush money” with Seward and Cameron; and Sickles levies another contribution on the banks of the Potomac. Judge Pitts, on the Eastern Shore of Virginia, may s00n open another protitable trade for the benefit. of Dix and Lincoln biniself; aud everybody knows that the calico maker, Simmons, (a United States Senator, ) has obtained a mOuOp- oly of the Cotton States. The goods not made by the Yankees are imported by them. A duty on foreign yoods is paid into the Yau- kee custom-houses; a protit is paid to the importers or inaputacturers; a tax to Lincoln and his Cabinet; a bonus to the Provost Marshal; another to Sickles; aud then they sre bought by our merchants for gold, which Costs forty per ceut. prennum. It is not w be presumed that bonuses or duties are levied on our side of the Potoinac—but we see at @ glance how high a pniee is finally yiven by our people tor Yankee “luxuries, ’ And this is non-intercourse with a ven- geance! Our principal harbours are to be walled up with stone, and yet the merchants and speculators are to reap advantages from the destitutivo of the plauters, And, when this illicit intercourse is fis taly established ani in proper laud, under the protection of the war, the North may cease tiztting, for what better subjugation could be desired? We could sell no cotton but to the Yankees, and we could buy no merchandise but trom the Yankees. They must mevitably get all the gold—we all the paper; and, it it should de- preciate in the ratio the specie vanishes, 1 might well be supposed at Washington tit our government must speedily sink and ex- pre trom inaniniauon, This is the plan the ankees prefer to fighting, which involves wounds aud death—and trade is thei rune passion.
