Mark * thé phraseology: ~ : “Our people want peace. We hope-and trust you will not trifle with and deceive us, as Vance has done.” - 2 ts > & Such langnage is significant. “Our people want peace.” That is so, All of us desire peace, and none more heartily and sincerely than Gov: Vance does. He will do as much to secure peace as any map. He will do a thousand fold more to bring peace than Mr. Holden would or can do, The writer of this letter has evi- dently allowed himself to be deluded with the idea, that the election ot Mr. Holden may bring peace. Who has deluded him? Upon whose head rests the re&ponsibility ? Poor man, he has taken his counsel from Ho! den and Pennington. Du and deceived by them, he wil have.a bitter recollection of their deception, when, alas! it is too late. He cays Gov. Vance bas deceived them. In what? Gov. Vance nev- er promised him peace. He had nd hand in getting ue into this war. He did ali het eoeie to prevent it. Mr. Holden did have a hand in it. He tanght the people secession and resistance. Gov. Vance never did. But when the war came he buckled on his armor ; he went into the war to conquer @ peace. He has done all he could do to secure peace. Mr. Holden, after doing all the mischief he could t@ get’ us by the ears with the North, then set himself down and left the reat of ue to fight it out. Not he. He has done what he could to stir up strife at home and keep us in a tarmoil. AJl the discontent- ed factionists in the-State swear by him, and we presume intend to vote for him. What will they gain by it? Can Mr. Holden bring peace? Is he not less likely to do it than any other man? Who will co-operate with him? President Davis and the Congress cannot, for no man has made bimself more offensive than he. The Governors of the other States would not co-operate with him, None of them r nize in him a friend-of the cause. one of them could co-operate with him, be- cause he has rendeted himself so ob- noxious to Southern sentiment and is 80 fully endorsed by the Yankees.

Beiuy a native ofghowan eounty and reared in the South, it 1s uatural | should be a crue Southerer iv feelings and inter est. Having cherished the greatest atfee tion fur my uative State and the people with whom [ was raed, I bave ever beea ammung the foremost in laboring for the weifare of the former aad the best in- terest of the jatter as ty record will show. At the aye of twenty years [settled where I now reside; fur years labored to advance the interest of agriculture and engaged Ww the practice of medicine; but owing to delicate health the latter was soon aban dored. When the N. C. Railroad was chartered it was almost impussible lo get the requisite amount of stock subseribed to build at, and but for the extraordinary efforts of a few individuals who came for- ward aud tu-k large amounts of stock and thea took extepsive contracts at small prices, that great State work, which bas been of so much importance instransport, ing troopS aud supplies during the war, would have been a failure. I was ore of that small number. When the W. N.C. Railroad was chartered, capitalists as a class again stood off, apd eight ur aine, of whom | wa’ one, had to close up a balance of $64,000 of stock ur see that important work yu by the board. We saved it to the Siate and to posterity. Other provements, in fact all great enterprises in my day have received aid from my bands. | After these roads connected the eastern with the western portion of the State, | removed to Newbern and spent four years cery trade with the different sections of our own State and other ports, during which time the war broke out, and by the fall of the place a large amount carried there and the proceeds of my labor while there, were Jost. < MY POLITICS. I was raised to believe in the doctrine of the old Whig party, and voted with that party ic most instances since I have enjoyed that privilege, but never would I allow party to influence me in voting for amao or a measure which I thought would not be fcr the good of the country. For years I watched with great anxiety im- | ever, were voluitary detson my part. All the single men ip my employment vulunteered, and | employed marricd met iu their stead, all of whow, with myself, jiined. a. independent to drill, equipped ourselves, @unyploved o drill master at a salary of $1000 per an- num té drill, us, offered our services to the authorities, were accepted and did several months service, in which service my bealth gave way, aud thereby I was U-tergd from entering the army regularly. Afier the fall of Newbern I felt that to confoue the produce trade would be to inflict an injury on the Goveroment and refugees, consequently, I directed my en- ergies to one single article ia my former business, i. e., Tobacco. By dealing in that article, I have been enabled to repair my losses and coatribute largely to the support of the Government and to the relief ofthe needy. In two years I have paid taxes to the General Government aod State to the amount of about $35,000, in my own county. My agents in other States and counties have paid for me about $15,000. Culleges, echouls, suldiers, sal- diers’ families, refugees and beneficent Reauses, generally, have received frum me, in the same time, abou,$50,000. In addi tion, all the surplus products of my plant ation’ and will, bave gone to the support of the army, or were sold to Ue consumers at Gov't prices and less. | have also had from one to four contracts at a tine with Government officers to furnish means to support the army, and at pricys far less than individuals paid for such articles. Thus over $100,000 have actually been already contribQted by me during the war for the support of the Government and benevolent objects, and $30,090 invseted in 4 per cent bonds, the most of which will be consnined in like manner. The _ above figures will be sustained by suffi- j cieft provf, if called for, and will yo to } shew some of the acts of a life of thirty- seven years, and for the first time, I call upon my fellow-citizens for an office of trust or bonor. : .

Some weeks ago when the Pro- gress said that the Hop. “Bedford Brown, tue Hon. Nat. Boyden and E. J. Warren, Esq., had conversed freely with the editor during the re- cent session of the Legislature, and that it was contident that at least two of the three will vote for Mr. Holden, and thoaght it very ~ pro- bable*that all three of them will, we denied it 60 fur as Mr. Boyden was concerned, in very pointed terms and asserted onr disbelief of the Progress as to the other two gentlemen named. And we called jon the Lrogress tv strike Mr. Boy- den’s name from the Holden roll, Yo this that print made no reply until pow, ip the following languaye: But the oracle of the Wulchman brings up Mr. Boydeu again, aod we suppose we Violate 0Q Confidemee when we tell that paper we have tt from that distinguished gentleman’s own lips that it has nu nght to speak for him. Se far frow it Mr. Burden has nothing to do with the Watchian or its Editor, and, politically, bas no con | fidence io either. Weeao tell the Walch | man, further, thatthe friends of Gov. | Vance have approached Mr. Boyden and j other promivent gentlemen we could | name; aud requested them to come out | publiely for hin, and that they have res | fased. We say again that Mr. Boyden cannot, holding the political epinious be | | | does, vote for Gov. Yauce.— Progress. --* — MONDAY BVENING, JULY | We confess that this wonld, in | Most cases astonish us; but it is the daily business of the L?rogress to misrepresent, pervent and falsify ; facts, and this may be only another | instange of ite duirg so. We woulda be astonished, no¢,that Mr. Boyden jehould say the WateAman has no irivht to speak for him, tor that is ‘true, in a general sense ; but, hav ing spoken tur bim:= and told the truth, that Mr. Boyden should do us it. Was he afraid? Had he com- -anitted himself in time past in such manner as to deter him? With or without the right to speak for him, having done sv and spoken truly upou the authority of his own point. ed declaration before several differ: | ‘ent persons, we ure astonished that | ‘if inisrepresented he did not com. | | platn and demand a correction 3 and | ‘if not misrepresented, that he should | | by word or mantcr make it infera. | | ble that he was. Did he do it? | We confess that we are impressed ‘by the air of authority assumed in the paragraph quoted from the Pro. gress, wid talse as that sheet is in alinost every thiny it talks about, we cannot altogether restrain the belief that something has passed between Mr. Boyden and its editor to em- bolden it to speak fur, while we can For in- stance it 26 true that Mr. Boyden and onrselt have liad, of late, but limited agreement, politically, and if he told Northern fanatics, | was satisfied it was impossible to stay the threatening storm only for a few years; and in order to keep it off as long as possible and to be able to make sure work on our part, I believed it was the duty of the South to have elected another President and during his term to, bave prepared for the worst, by each State investing a sufficient amount in implements of war for Ler defense, and when we could uo Jonger bave our rights at the ballot- box, then and not till then resort to arms. I also thought it best to fight, if we had to fight at all, inthe Union. I was not familiar, however, with national politics, avd may have been ignorant of the best | way 10 conduct tbe impending struggle. But a majority of those in power in the South pursued a different plan, with the | results of which course you are familiar; and as they were developed, I, with thou- sands of others wko thought as I did, thought it best to cease to look at the causes of the war and set about to aid in its prosecution, and for these three long and eveutful years I have done all that L; » Conceived to bein my power to aid the Confederate Government; for well was | rsuaded that the enemy, with whom we ad to deal, would use all his resourses to ebastise us soundly for our course. When Gov. Ellis sent troops to Fort Macon, the State had no means provided to support them. I with others contributed without any remuneration, hundreds of dollars worth each, of flour, bacon, molasses, d&c., to sustain our brave troops until the Goversment could be formed. To did in building fortifications I was also taxed very heavily, all of which, how- ‘faith says, “I have a gréat God.” When outward strength is broken, faith draws the sting out of every trouble, and takes out the bitterness | from every aftliction. KHON. JOSIAH TURNER, Jr. FOR GOV. VANCE. We are authorized by the Hon. Josiah Turner, Jr., to state that he is “emphatically for Gov. Vance.” Mr. Turner is one of the leading prominent Conservatives of the State | that have been claimed by the Pro- | gress as favorable to the election of Mr. Holden. Mr. Turner is about the last mnan in the State that would vote for W. W. Holden. Mr. Holden knows this, and has about as much use for Mr. Turner as the Devil has for holy water, fashioned old line Whig Conserva- tive, and although a true Confeder- | ate, devoted to the canse of Soath- ern independence, he would be ve- ry far from voting for the father of secession of North Carolina. Will the Standard and Progress give their readers the benefit of the fact, that Gov. Graham and Mr. Turner have declared themselves in favor of the re election of Governor Vance? We shall see.— Conserva- live. : | Josiah Turner, Jr., is an old the Progress we had no right to speak for him it would be altogether natural in continuance to communicate this fact also ; and | hence the pompous declaration : | “ Mr. Boyden has nothing to do with the Watchman or is editor, and, po- | :ditically, has no conidence ineither.” ? We will not reply to this as we | would do if fully assured that Mr. LB. had used the languaze. He discards | the whole or a part (we do not know | which) of the Progress’ article. He | gent us a copy of that paper with | the pbove extract marked, and a} verbal protest against it. We think | | he muet have wanted us to speak fur | him; but the Progress has some- what weakened our ‘ confidence,” so that a little caution may not be ‘ont of place. And if that print’s representation of Mr. Boyden is | correct, it should shake the confi- dence of all to its base. Can, it be possible that he is playing a double | game? Dues he tell us here at home that he adheres to that branch of the ‘‘Conservatives” represented by Gov. Vance, and then go down to talieigh and hold conversations with the Holdenites which sanction such publications as this in the Progreag? | Mark tlre lanygnage of thatgpaper : | |. “ We can tell the Watchman, fur- | | ther, that the friends of Governor 1 Vance have approached Mr. Boy- | \‘‘den and other prominent gentle “men we could name, and requested | ry burden in counection with our — “them te come out publicly forhim, “and that they have refused.” Is this “from the diatingnished gen- tleman’s own lips”? ° And thus forthe Idek of a “pablic proite- gio,” Mr, Boyden passes for a eicepive at leigh ‘and for a uned mat at lrafee | Phe / oe and Standard claim him, and use | Ais name fo the prejudice of Gov. Vance, whom he professes here at ome té support. Verily, we think there is need for a “public profes sion” in thig cause, and that Mr. Boy den owesit to himeclf as an indepen- dent and: candid man, and a8 a sin- cere friend of Gov. Vance, to make it. We think fe owes it to those whose great intéreste arc at stake, and who would just as seon vote for Abe Lincoln as to vote for Holden, or for those who hold his political views. But perhaps oar, position in- re- gard to the-gentleman does not ad mit of friendly suggestivns as to his duty, even to those whose votes he seeks, so that what we have said in this relation is offered as a mere matter of opinion. In conclusion, we have only to say further, that if there is a decent wan at Raleigh or any where else that donbts Mr. Boyden baving pointedly declared himself a Vance nan on our streets and in our stores, we can prove it by half a dozen men: It is netorions Aere that he is for Gov. Vavce.—Every body here so understands his position. Bat those who read the Progrets will swear he is a Hfoldenite; and what is sin- vular about it, the Progress profes- ses io speak from the * distinguish- ed gentleman's vn lips.” -e “ The Confederacy is reduced, as far as the impressment of burses, men and other cattle are concerned, to parts of fyur or tive States, and this territory) being. under the control of offecrs and men &bho seem to de§jght in oppression “instead of relief, we cao only grin, subsnit and bear.” Progress. The Lemonade vender ranta most furiously at us for suggesting that its. course within the last few monjhs (we should have said early two | years) was calculated to encourage- age tory raids into North Carolina, and yet look at the abovo extract, actually taken trom the same col- uinnin which he applies to us all the black names in the catalogue of very low abuse. Now what is like: ly to be the cffedt of telling the peo ple that they are “ under the control of officers and men who seem to de- light in oppression, instead of. re: lief 2? Supposing they believe it, of course they will fotlow the exam- ple of the Progress, and denounce the Confederate Government, its of- ficers and alinost every thing about it. Every hardship, whether insep- arabie from our condition as a peo- ill be laid on the Government with ene and Soldiers in this frame of mind think they are doing perfectly right to desert, and tori@ are con- firmed by it in the belicf that they are doing God service when like the ple at war.or not, curses. wolf they steal down from the moun- tains and rob our people and devas- tate the conntry. It is all perfectly natural as cqnse and effect, and there jis certainly no relief for the Pro- |ygress in fuming and rantiog like a caged wild beast. Let him, rather, correct his ways. . “>. Mike Them Come Out.—We warn the people of Rowan, and, in- deed of the whoie State, to demand of all candidates for the Legislature, a full and free expression of their views on all the snbjects which con- cern the public welfare, and espe- cially in reference to the achieve. ment of our independence. We | warn the people to be on their guard, and to demand a thorough expose of the views of candidates; for there is reason to fear that there are men | now offering to represent them in the Legislature are unsound. Men whose positions have encourag- ed the enemy, and porplexed and distressed their Confoderate friends.

Though the hand of the Almightly has rent that Union, and now gaides this devastating war which ie con- suming every clement of its former strength, they yet linger and gaze and long togetnfn. Butit is gone, and vain are the hopes of those who: Jook for ita re establishment, and vascly (alse are they to the sacred aspirations of those noble patriots of the land who have given their sone and their property su freely to build op in ite stead, a resting place for constitutional liberty.

Trust not those who | refuse to trust you with a free dec | laration of their views.

BOYDEN AND THE PROGRESS. ‘2 . . Ld We have no inclination to cumber our columns unnecessarily with comments on tie misrepresentations of the Progress in | regard to Mr. Boyden's position relative to the Gubernatorial candidates. That ; print claimed hin, some weeks ago, AS AN supperter of Billy Holden. Having heord Mr. Boyden declare Limseif, we answered —not so. He is for Gov. Vance. Strike lis name from the Holden roll, &e. | Aud a few days ago we had occasion to remind jd4hat paper of its misrepresentation, to | which it made answer in the following language : a “But the oracle of the Watchman brings up Mr. Boyden ayain, and we suppose we viviate 00 voufidence when we tell tbat “paper we have it from that distinguished gentlemen's own lips that it has no right to speak fob him. So far from it Mr. Boy- den bas nothing todo with the Watch. man or its Editor, and, politically, has no confidence in either. We can tell the | Watchman, further, that the friends of | Gov. Vance have approached Mr. Boyden and other prominent geatlemen we could pane, and requested them to come out publicly for him, and that they have re- fused. Wesay again that Mr. Boyden cannot, bolding the political opinions he does, vote for Gov. Vance.” In reply to this, as regards tha question in dispute between us and the Progress, we refer to a communication inthis paper which Mr. Boyden left on our table yes- published. We suppose that wll settle the question of bis | adhesion to Gov. Vance’s wing of the | “Cooservatives.” And as the gentleman hss chosen, of bis own motion, to make the | Watchman the medium of his ecommuni- ‘cation with the public, it would seem he is not 60 dreadtaul wary of us after all. His silence on one point is construed by us as an admission that he bas told some persons that we had “no right to speak for him,” and if be did that, leaving it to be inferred that we had misrepresented him in the tnatter of his support of Governor i Vance, we have only to point again to his | communication‘in (his paper, and say, if | he can stand it, we can.

It was* a note, or memorandum, of statements gatheréd from those around ue at the time, who professed to know something of the matter, written va the same sheet, it is true, bat like many others of a siilar kind, written separately, and designed for reference and fyrther inquiry. Mr. Moses (N..A., we think.) is our author for it, having, as he said, heard a man tell Mr. MeLeat at the head of the ruad on Sat- urday, thatgihere were three buudred raid- ers at Tate’s the day before. All this, is Joubtless trav. But Mr. Moses did not koow when talking to us, that Me. McLean subsequently satistivd hiriself that the party at Tate's cid not exceed from 15 to 18 persous, and thut they had fled beyond the mountains, Mr. Mckean did disbe- lieve the story of 300 raiders, but his dis e belief did not prevent him frum sending messengers to the neighborhuod of Tate's to ascertain the facts in the case® Nor did he leave Camp Vagee until assured the danger from that party was over. Nhe Kirk raiders are believed by some to be an entirely different band; but wheth or that be true or not, there was no such information obtained ‘as indicated the ap- proach of Kirk, aud consequentiy no spe- cal provisive amde ty repell him, We are glad of this opportunity: to dis claim any intention tu do injustice to May aor McLean, who we really belreve to be a misapprehepsion of the nature aud Abjects of the society it was attack- ing. . . But we do not know enough of the “ancient soeiety” to which we have alluded to define its character, and determine the question of iden- tity with the one discovered to exist in thisState. We think it likely that yankee villains have perverted that rupted state, to the people in the South toaid their government in sub- jngating us. We do, however, know a gentieman whose masonic tastes, study and learning can, we think, throw light on the subject, and will endeavor to engage him to do so. There is no better friend to the Con- federate cause, and none who will more readily contribute in every way to defeat the: machinations of the enemy.

Tere seems to have been a| necessity existing acquiesced in by com-~ | gnon consent to have leaders who should | be entrusted with the administration, not | only of the political, but also, to a great | extent, the civil and domestic affairs of | men, in all their various capacities, whether | as States or communities. “ This necessity | did not originare from tbe fact, that in | in war there is strength in. unity or in submission to the authority of some ac- knowledged chief—as has been well and satisfactorily demonstrated in modern tines in reference to the movements of great armies, that in the multitude uf counselors, iw a certain prognostis of disaster—bot it seems to be a sort of secondary nature of man to look up and yield obedience to his fellow man io all matters pertaining to bis national interest and domestic happiness Hence the masses have always had leaders whom they have regarded, in many instan- ces, with almost superstitious reverence gad followed with the utmost assiduity. Evea in democratia: governments, where the people beast, with the pride of a Ko man citizen, of their liberal Jaws and un- restricted immunities, is to be witnessed this universal and time honored usage in all its full force and effect among men. Here they too have leaders who control them and whom they obey with the same mysterious cortplacency, Indeed, in_re- publican governments there have been as strong evidences of approval and regard exhibited by the people fur their leacing men as were ever enjoved by kings or morarchs. This is not strange beh natur- al, and will always be so. Yet, notwith~ standing the great length of time since the people in the untrammeled exercise of their natural propensity singled out leaders and showed the importance and necessity of having them, they seem not to grow or more cautious by experience either J in the selection, or im reference to the amoant of confidence they should repose in those whom they adopt as their advis~ ors: and especially is this trite in respect to the ignorant, yet honest class of our fellow-countrymen, consequently they are often made the tools of mendacious aad corrupt political aspirants. There are others who, with a blind indifference to principle, for the sake of party, or through mere selfish motives, throw their influence in favor of a political huckster without ever stopping to consider whether he is a man of real worth, ‘or whether he is the most suitable man fo fill the position to | which he aspires. The former class, how- ever, are the great sufferers. North Caro- lina is a case in point. Her people are | cool and deliberate, patriotic and chival | rous, generous and confiding. None -are | mtore deeply imbued with the spirit of} popolar liberty and self government: none more keenly sensitive of encroachments upon their rights; yet their modesty and forbearance amount almost sto a fault. | They love law and order for the sake of peace ahd harmony. Their unassyming magnanimity restrains contentions and jnently qualifies them for the quiet pur suits of agriculture to which their State is well adapted. TheS masses are fur the most part iliterate. They read very little, and, consequently, their knowledye of what i iring J | 5 i is transpiring iu the world around them | and hate war, as you love your chitdren does not generally extend beyond the limits of their respective farms or work shops. They take very little interest in politics, even in the most exefting times. To arouse them they must be made to feel and see: when aroused they! are like a fish | out of its natural element; and then it is that their generosity and natura! love of quiat renders them susceptible to the misguiding influences of the wily politi- cian. Mr. Holden, the tnost corrufj, mendacious and unscrupuious politician now living, is fuliy aware of this weaks ness in the people, and comes forth as great leader to take advantage of it. He has studied his tactics well, and uses them with all that low cunning aud harlequinade of a man of base instincts. H+ bas been an acknowledged leader, of first one party and then of anotier, for many years, but one, always looked upon with sbspi- sion aod distrust as being incapable alike |: of honesty and principle in the promotion of selfish ends. [le knows the people want peace, abd that in their anxiety for it many will not stop to ¢ onsider bow ibis to be obtained. This rms bis hobby. He has told therm that peace is ovly delayed because the yoveroment is for war—a most unimittigate falsehood. He has falsely tuid them that the government has never made any eth is to open negutiations with the enemy ont} ly they are the more anxious, finds no means too base to ba der to deceiy: Own lnterests. Isut will the people of the good old North State be deceived and jed astray by this tuen Holden? Wall they adopt this eCUrnious, | " ared, low bred paitroon as their leader aud follow him as their in thie the tnust vital and perilous bour of our country’s existenc:? surely, surely not! Is it possible that they cannot see bim in all his hideous deformity! Look at his subject consequent Thus he used in the peopry an ] advance liis or- guide [support him? antecedeats, What-is lis charactet as uaderstood by the purest amd best men of the country! A man of low birih; false in every calling of life; vindictive, unserus pulous, aod unprincipled as a politician; and last but vot least, an unquesjionable traitor with a heart aa” black as treason itself. Can the people, will they support bis for the bigh and responsible office of governor? His strikers and einissaries openly boast that a serious disaster to Lee's ouble army will insure bis success. What strooger evidence do the people want of the unsoundnovss of this man, and of the nefarious and treacherous purposes of bis heart should he be-elevated to the Chief Mayistracy of the Statef What then are the people to expect from his suc- cess? Do they ignorantly suppose that be can bring them the much desired and promised peace # Do they vainly suppose be can do more than the goverment bas already done towards opehing negotiations with the public exemy v6 this all impors tant subject ? ifso, they are woefully de- ovived. They are sadly -ignorant of the fact that the Confederate Constitution des | clares that “no State s.all enter into any Treaty, alliance, or Confederation.” This power is confined to the general Govern~ tent, only, acting in its legislative capaci- J @- Mr. Wolden can do no more to bring peace to the people tlian Gov. Vance has done ; but he will do more to bring them civil war, diggrace, and ultimate ruin. Should the people elevate him to the: gu- bernatorial chair, aud he remain Wue to his promi and treasonable instincts, be Prom ees, bed | than whom no trneror better Con- will use his power and influence to tke North Carolina out of the Southern Cons federaey and reunite her to those govern- ed by Abraham Lincoln. Yea, in less (han six months after his advent in pow er North Carotina will be reeking with the best blood of ber own children or bumbied at the feet of her mortal Yankee enemics.- Sad spectacle! again in the embrace of that wicked and unmerciful people of the North, what is to become of those brave and glorious men who have dared to stand up in defense of their owa dear native land, Southern honor, liberty, and inde- pendence? What of those who have beep maimed for life in battle. “Think you they will not Se treated as felons and murders ers?) But this imendacious leader denies that be is in favor of taking the State out of the Confederacy. If this is true, then why will the people support him in pre- ference to Governor Vance?

Sir:— Your note enclosing an ar- ticle from the Progress in relation ito the pending election for Govern: o: of the State, and iuquiring wheth- Cry position in respect tu it is cor: ‘reetly represented therein, has been received. In reply I have to say, that while 'deprecating the contest which has arisety touching this ,botat all participating in the acrim- ) onous f@ling wits which the canvass | Ng | of the public pre-e, 1 supposeed it was well known that Tam an earn est enppeorter of the reelection of Gov. Vance. Months ago, before any other had been announced, and when [ certaivly anticipated no op- position from any quarter, unless from his original opponents, I ad- vise hitn, in view of the general snecese of his adininistration, that { thought it bis duty not to withhold his name as a candidate for re elec- ition. Like views have been uni- ‘formly expressed whenever the subs ject has been sugvested in my cor- respondence and conversation. His administration las in my opinion heen characterized by ability, ener- gy, and zeal in its endeavors to give ¢succce-s to our aris in the great stroygle in which we are engaged whilst it has sought carefully to goad the righta an! dignity of the State, and the liberty and safety of | her citizens. In this line of policy | he has but co-operated with the ma- | jority of the General Assembly cho- sen ut the same time with himeelf, {and Lam persuaded has met with general approbation.

CAPT. T. HW. OSBORNE. Tie death of this brave and gal- lant Partizan, is chronicled with sad- ness and pain. Lhe rumor of bis having been seriously wounded, and of his subsequent death, no longer admits of doubt and hope, but has become a certainty. Tue following are the circumstances under which lie received his wound: A tew days after the capture of Fry—of whiclr an account was giv en in last: week's paper—Capt.

So far then, it civilians commit this crime, they are not amenable unless brought to trial ia the Siate Courts.

The Brig, General commanding cannot withhold from the Troops of this Brigade the expression of his high apprecianon of their ¥allant conduct ‘duriug the arduods labors of the past mounth. : Tn the acon at Dayis’ Farm on the 2nd alt, this Brigade, siogle-handed, encountered a Division of Yankee Tofantry ayd drove it back with heavy luss to the enemy. Gn the 23d ult., at Black's and White's (in Nottoway county,) the First’ Regiment, with a dash and spirit worthy of theaselves, turned the tide of battle, saved the day and drove back the triumphant advance of a whole Brigade of the enemy's cavalry. Jo other numerous actions of less note, parts of Regiments aud Co:npanies acted with life and spirit; while, on every occasion in which it was engayed, McGregor's Battery bore itself with tmarked skill and couraze. While we mourn the loss of var fallen com- rades and friends, rt is a source of gratitude to God, that our losses have been compara- uvely small. We are enéouraged to renewed energy and weal: and the undersigned appeals with con- fidence to buth men and officers for their co- operavoen in every effort to promote the effi- ctency of the Command, and to add new lau- rels to the long lists of hoaurs heretofore won by the North Carolina Cavalry Brigade. & BARRINGER, Brigadier General. -_ --e acd From the Asheville News. | LOCAL ORGANIZATIONS.

July 4. : w3i6 To the Magistrates and School Committee of Rowan, ONSIDERABLE COMPLAINT HAS been made that certificates are issued to soldier's families that are not reaily in indigent circumsiunces.- I think from the large number of new certificates ihut have come iv within the last 3 mouths that there is reason for com- plaint. It is the duty of every magistrate and school committee in the county, to revoke all cerliticaies that hive been improperly iseaed. Now since harvest is at hund, I am: satished that one-third of the families that are now drawifig trom this office could live without it for several months to come; if so, then of course (hey should be siopped until they be- come really indigent, As long as a family can subsist themselves they should not come to this office to draw. ‘The iutention of the law is to prevent suffering wmong helpless famiiies; and there dre a great many sach families in the county. I know of many families of 5 to 7 small children the father either now io the army or has died there, who have every mouthful they eat to buy, and who if not better cared for must suffer. Now fet us give only to those that really need it, and That will enable us to give them more. The way the matter new stands the fund is cui up so small that uo one ges enough to do much good. I hope those having this matter in charge will attend to it at once. ae J.S. McCU3BINS, Comis’nr. Salisbury, July 4, 1864. wtf6 D* C. A.

Bruner: Dear Sir—1 have noticed in the, Watchman and the Conservative, an article sp~aking of an oath-bound, trea- sonable society ; and I also see the affidas vits of several gentlemen ackoowledying themscives as having been me:ul-ers of the said society, called““Herves of America.” | I sir, take the present occasion to inform you that I, myself, have beeu initiated into this same society or trap, aad as I see that it is thought to be detrimental to the well fare of the Confederacy, I now declare myself separate aud apart frow its mem bership. But I never did ucderstand tie thing as bere [ may be alluwed to say, like some of tkose gentlemen alluded to above seem to understand it. I was told that the thing came from the yankees; that the yankees were disposed to favur all | good couservative men, and that this was the means by which they would koow them ; and then in raids, or evenein subs | jugation, we would not be hurt. I was told, also, that should I be placed in the army, and should unfortunately be cap tured that the yanks would release me and treat ine well, give me muney, &c., to come bome on. But I did not understand that I was to give them any aid, or to vote for Holdeo. If they bad toid me that, I would vever have went into it; Vda seen therm d—d first, I don'tlike Hol eo or the yankees either. I was determined wheo I went into it that it should never do we any harm, veither should it do them (the yaukees) any good. It is a perieet trap: a man does not know what it is un- til he gets into it, and then it is too late. I now have a bad opinion of all seeret so cieties and think that there is no use of any thing that is right to be kept secret. 1 hops that I will not be looked upon as disioya! or untiue to the Contederacy. I dare say I have fed as tany soldiers ip the last 18 montis as any private mau iv this county, and | expect have received |ss pay for it; but hardly ever did I repent a thing in my life as I did repent beloaving to this clan. «The niyiit that the two es- caped yaukee prisoners came to my house, they told me that (hey had beard that I was a good Union man, and that they wanted me to put them in the way to wel alopg. 1 stuuied a momentyand then told them tbat I be d —dif I would doit.

What horrible suggestions are irtended to be conveyed by the first appeal, we leave the reader to ‘infer; the second is anything bat an exhortation to deeds of high em- prise. By trophies, these women do not mean tern and bloody flage, bat- tered muskets, and dinted swords; but spoons and tea-pots, musical in- struments and pictures, silk dresses: ° and articles of jewelry—in faet stolen property of every kind with which, for the | ist three years, their thievish husbands and brothers have been supplying them from the plan- dered homes of the Soath.

Startling Decline in the Shipping of the United States. The Florida, while sending to the bottom: some Yankee vessels, has been the means-of bringing to the top seme statistica which show a startling decline in the shipping of that nation. From the firet place in the maritime world the United States has descended te about the fifth.— The N. Y. World says: In 1860 the total tonnage of the United States, exclusive of whaling and steam tonnage, was five million two hundred and vinoteen thoueand one hundred and eighty-one tone. In 1864 it ia in the neighborhood of one million and six hoandred and that W. W. Huldew will not get the vote of one brave, intelligent soldier. If you can fiod ao ignorant, cowardly submission ist, every deserter, every one why will run froin the field in ba tle, or shoot his own hand, or cut off bis finger, to shun duty; all these are invariably Holden men. And to this is what they are pleased to give the paine “Conservatism.” — If this {s conserva tism, Webster and every other lexicograph er were surely in error when they defined the word. And if words can be construed thus, a highway robber may with equal propriety be called a tnissionary. The’ solders whu think anything of themselves bave long since been won over to the Vance party. Holden would have yotten many votes in the spring that he will not tre August. The party's principles are iHing it out in the army. Very few men will say now “I'm for Holden.” — The par- ty is aware of this and jt has chosen the plan of secret voting or voting with folded tickets. Such conservatives ought to stay in the dark. But it is no uxe, they may t into a political darkness that may be t and still the party is too weak, it will die. Holden has been complaining tbat his per is not allowed to go to the army, ere is the reason: When bis papers yet into the army they sometimes get to the yankees and are used against the soldiers. The yankees nade a good sized pampble: of extracts from soine of Holbden’s papers, and inculeated it among their people to get them to volunteer tu fill up their anny and made the work heavier on var soldiers; and if their pamphlet succeeded, Holden is to blaine for thea men being taken su pear to a man from hume; and yet in his éard he says, he has no inclination to “an vass the State anid call the men from their employment. [think he ought to be sat ised after having done more than any other man in the Stale to take men from their families and farms. I eay he ought to be satisfied. ‘The soldiers are becoming satisfied with his. principles, The iil-in- formed begin to find they won't do. He has caused many of them to detert and some to be shot. Some of them tied to the stake, with their last words declared that Holden was the cause of their igno-~ minivus death. Pennington is using extracts from. let- ters of soldiers who did nut quite like every thing the Gov. said. I will say for Hol- den and Pentington’s comfort that many of the soldiers who did not quite like all of the Governor's speech will volunteer to come to North Carolina’ as soon as be takes the chair, if he is elected. and hang 4 him to the first lamp post they come to. | I beard of no obj-ction to bis speech only his profanity and some anvcdotes that some thought might have been left out. Otbers liked them very well. Why does Holden expect to be elected on the grounds of piety? He has changed his politics five times within the last ten or fifteen years, snd he will have to be devotedly pious for at least five years, to convince candid, thiuking men (hat he is bot a hypocrite.

Pause, North Carolica! Pause!

The Editors of these papers nay sot have designed “giving the enemy sid and comfort,” but that they bave done so, is be- yond all. gaestion. Exery vote— whether so intended or pot—cast for Mr. Holden, is regarded at the North as a vote in favor of Lincoln’s canse. For our own part we are as jeal- ous of State Rigtts—free Govern- mebt and cfvil Liberty as either of the two journals above mentioned. But what avail State Rights and State Governments if the enemy overran us while we stand splittin hairs about Constitutional serigaatl In the desperate struggle now rag- ging, we regard State Governments as nothiug without the army to pro- tect and defend then. The great desideratum, as it seems to us, is to keep up this arigy, even it requires a temporary suspension of State Rights, or of Governments them- selves. If we falkinto the enemy’s hands, our Government is gone not only for, daring’the war but forever; and with it perishes State Constitu- tions State Rights, and Liberty. - But if we conquer, then each State can resnme its original Rights, and guard them with an eye as jewlons as she chooses.— Milton Chronical.

Weare heré to share the censure3 with him, by solemnly assuming the very game responsibility. * s * * * s = Sir, you have done more than simply dis- charge your duty. That would have been enough, but by your good fortane you have gone much further. The thickenin ele- ments to opposition to Lincoln and despot- ism were powerless and feeble, antil your ace speéch in Congress, like a great lamp io darkeness, showed our feet the way of es- cape from the cave of Palypheinus, and you are the glorious pioneer, who, by a stroke of genius, has saved his country. What was considered hopeless, has become feasible ; and what you first announced three months ago, is now lar ; it ts what half the peo- ple believe, if they dared to say it; and what all will ultimately perceive to be their great- est good, and their highest duty; the only | solution of terrible crisis in human affairs is ® your own discovery. And for this we honor lexander Long. With your position as public. and recog- nized benefactor, surrounded with a large and increasing body of friends; the founderer of # a new and noble policy, which hag already legions of Chnstian professors in our owa Democracy, and in the nations of cirilized Europe, we should first of all congratulate y you that the reward of integrity has trodden & on the very -heels of the heroic deed which proved it. Nothing could crown the niost protracted career with a higher trophy than ou had won at the outset. Let it but be M the glorious first step in a public life, which . » we ardently hope may be long and happy f and illustrious. Fellow-Citizens, we may well also con- gratnlate ourselves that our implicit grust in our member's virtue and intelligence should have been so entirely virdicated. We took Fup a young advocate from the walks of his profession, who bad made his way entircly through obscurity, poverty and self-denial, from the plough, the village school, first as popil then as teacher, but who belonged first and last to the ranks of the people; and we gave him our consent to represent this large and importent district in the Federal coun- cils at a time when veterans quailed, and | statesmen only saw the right to pursue the ) wrong. * * * * * * MR. LONG'S SPEECH. When this distinguisned champion of Free- | F dom and leading advocate of peace present- ed bimself on platform, the vociterous ap- which greeted him excelled anything of } the kind we ever witnessed. After the cheer F upon cheer had subsided, Mr. Long cominenc- ~ ed as follows: 8 Mr. Chairman and Fellow- Citizens: It is not in the power of language for me to ex- eas the deep see ch patie I feel in istening to eloquent terms in which yon, sir, (turning to Mr. Corry,) have referred to sr sai and at beholding this demonstration popular opinion ; sir, alttrough you have endeavored by the power and force of do English language, of which you are erfect a master, tu attriBute it to myself personally, I am not vain enough for one moment to believe it is so intended. It is! the true expression of popular sentiment in favor of a principle, which, by your suffrage, aod your kind partiality, my fellow-citizens, I have been enabled to give utterance to in the councils of the nation. It means Pxacs; peace upon the best terins it can be obtained, that would be satisfactory to honorable men, but in any event peace, even if it costs the ition of the separate aud sovereign in- ce of the Corifederate States. am deeply grateful for this manifestation of of my course upon the ali exctt- ing questiea of the day —~a question that sinks jn insigné all the events of our past history.

There was nothing which they 80 tmuch | dreaded and azainst which they pot 20 many safeguards in the Constitution. Centralization of power does not lead to despotism, but it is despotism itself. Federal Government is the agent of the States. It was created by the States, witha few well defioed, delegated and limited pow- ers, and was forbidden by the States to exer- cise any authority not expressly conferred by them. The great mass of power was left to the States, who are the principals to the Con- stitution compact. It is the great effort of this Administration, and it will be the result of this war if it is not speedily stopped, to reverse all this, to destroy permanently, all State sovereignty and loeal jurisdiction, and make the Federal Government as omnipotent and supreme as that of Austria or Russia, which even now are its only patterns.

Force and coereiun of a State were out of place aud inappropriate in the form of gov- croment they designed—a form rosting en- tirely upoo the mutual conseut of each and all partics to the cumpaci. No Union but a voluntary one could be republican, and they would hate mo other. North Cavohna and Rhode Island refased to come into the Union, and were treated by i as separate and indepencetit nations.

Fellow-citizens, ef all the wil! vagaries that ever afflicted a reasonable and intelligent eqnal and sovereiga States, which had been sundered by alienation of feeling between them, could be restored by the power of the sword and the bayonet and be a gigantic civil war is the great -st. Posterity will wouder that a madness 90 extravagant and paloable could ever have seized hull of an intelligentand civilized peo- re. The madness combined with the fanatical and unnatural idea of placing the negro upon in blood, has impovermhed us with dedt and taxation, and destroyed the censtitutional liberty bequeathed to us by our ancestors.

DESCRIPTION OF THE FIGHT AT PETERSBURG. Extract from a leiter dated, On the Ht Lines, Petersburg, Va., July 31st, 1864: + “The night previous to the battle be yard myself had had a long aod most _' pleasant conversation, in fact Col. F. aod CT sat up and chatted until midnighg fittle ; dreaming what a atorm was brewing -or bow fatal it would be to ome of us. ‘Next "morning the springing of a mine under by Pegram’s (formerty Branch’'s) battery, im~ ' amediately on the right of our brigude, a terrific votley from the enemy’s artillery > along the whole line and a simultaneous ‘+ obange by a large portion, ifnot the whole trenches. A great many of Elliot's (for- merly Evan’-) baigade of South Carolin~ tery, were bloww ‘ap, and a still greater num berswallowed up in the chasm. Gen. El hiott was wounded: The men, of course, were greatly coffused by the terrific explosion, whelming numbers. They poured ‘into their wnine, aad ever ttre works, on either $) side, in a resistlees etream of men both black and ‘white, crping: “no quarter ‘to the: rebels” The 25th Regiment was on the right of our brigade and ours next. Ss The 26th was thrown up a ravine to. pro~ tect our flank and rear and our regiment moved to the right and joined tre out And nox we witnessed and to some degree partici pated in one of the most ternffic and des. perate Gyhts of the war. The énemy re- inforced rapily. Column after column of troops —negroes and whiie men—in great |). dark blue lines poured over the parapet and rushed down the inside of the trenches, 2. thus coming on our men from two direc- Bayonets locked, rifies were club- tions. . bed, and wen m desperation threw away their arms-and grasped each other in the , death struggle. We coull see a man bayonet his foe and while in the act of withdrawirg his weapon have bis head mashed by the butt of a nfle. “This is Piso truth. Ibis no exaggeration. But , ewerwbelming numbers in such a fight must prevail. Gradually the small portion : of Elliott’s Brigade which was between us and the mine were pressed back upon us. But nobly—and you may emphasize the word —yes most heroteally, did these South » Carolinians contest every inch of the | ground. Color after color was ptaced up on the works from which our mec were driven until twelve stands waved defiance in our faces. Beyond tbe brew of the hil and hidden by it from us, six more % flaunted before our outnumbered bovs— thus making eighteen in all. While this was going on we were not idle. Poor of a front assault. The esuepense was aw- ful. We kept up a close fire and endeav- ored to make the place so hot that those outside of our lines would be toth to caine over. Obl what a load was raised as we looked to the right and saw coming up over. the brow of tbe bill, the 26ih 8S. C., the Zh N.C. ‘nnd Mabone’s Brigade Sil, kaowing the tremendous force of the enemy, we trembled for the result of the charge. Stronger and stronger we made our Ere upon the enemy. On, on, right on, cane the Confederates. The yell was raised, the men took the run, and rivht on, right up to .our lost works they went. Such a shout we raised a6 we gnaw the ene my fled pell mell from befure our ancn! Then was our chance. Ob! but we did pour the leaden storm into the thick masses of men that rushed down the hill to théir own lines. Such a slaughter! The re- taken works, the main trench eight feet wide, the perpendicular ditches, the aumer- ous “bomb-proofs,” were litteraliy packed with the killed and wounded. Black and white yankees were piled and crossed and packed upon each other. The tremendous loss of the enemy made the number of our poor fellows who had been killed when the werks were taken, look small. Along here we bad \wo! tines runomg parrelle! and close to each other. Ia an anyle of our front line a fords of the enemy were penned. Our wen determined to take these without risking the lives of oar men. A mortar was brought up and a few shells dropped over among them, when they soon surrendered. In this‘Bock -was Brig. Gen. Bartlett, and staff. He had lost a teg before Yorktown, and in this battle this woodea leg was broken. Our whole line was again in our possession. And now to return to our own regiment. After the charge was made, our main works retaken, and the fight over, our regiment was or dered back'to our old position. Captain Edwin V. Harris and myself had just been congratulating each other on our good fortune in getting through safely when ‘he order to move separated us. His company was on the extreme left of the regiment, and in going back to our old position led the way. was following Maj. Davisalong the trenches chatting gaily, when they came to an ex- posed position on the line. A ball from the enemy passed close to the Major. He turned to wart his men to walk luw. Just The blood spouted frum his neck in a stream a3 large as one’s finger, anc gusbed out at his meuth. And now ensued a most tender and affecting scene. The pour fellowsseemed at once to realize his condition. He could not speak. But stepping up to Major Davis, he pasted his | left hand through his arm to support him rself from fallong, and extended his mylit to ; tell the Major farewell, while he gave lim ed on the left of General Evans, and Terry’s Virginia Brigade, which em- braces aleo the retnvant of the Stone- wall Brigade, advanced in support of this portion of our line. The com- mand advanced en ¢ohelon by brig- ades. From the woods some got in front of the enemy through the field swept by the hostile artillery, and raked by a heavy infantry fire, our troops moved on tho enemy’s posi- tion a few yards, and General Evans fell severely wounded—an accident sufficieat to dampea the spirits of the best troops. But the Louisiana Brigades came forward rapidiy and drove the enemy’s tirst line back up on the second, so that he could reap no advantage froin (bis slight check; and a charge on the second line re- salted as happily as the assault: on the first. No sooner, however, were their lines swépt away by theim- petnous onset of our imen, than a third bine ° was discovered, longer than the othere and far more strong- ly posted ; and tow the Virginyans were ordered in, and in they wert with that alacrity, that good order, that calm resolugion, which have ev- er distingnished car troops. They forced Bae enemy back ou a portion of their line next the river. But there was av yielding in front.of the Louisianians, and the- enemy still held his strong pesition on the left, and besides, advanced two fresh lines in erder to reguin the positions which had been taken by our men. At the head of his company he | as he turned a ball struck poor EJ. passing | through Iris neck cutting the great artery. | It was high time for bold, deci: sive action, and thé man of the 12th | of May was equal to the emergency.

There was butvery little sharpshooting at apy point on the lines, ant the inortar shelling was very rare. Our men appeared to enjoy themselves amuse ingly under the circamstances, fur it must be borne in mind *by those who have never tried it, that life in the trenches is anything else but pleasant, The heat, though very oppressive, in the city, was greatly tempered along the lines by a mos! refreshing breeze which prevailed allday. Our tortifcationg for the most part occupy elevated ground, and when there igs any air stirring, our men realize its full benefit. , FACILITATING THE ENEMY’S MENTS. AOKE It was discovered Thursday eve- ning that the enemy were moving laryd bodies of infantry to the rear. Our forces Having put an effective 64 pounder inte position on the centre, opened on the moving mass ea with shell and solid shot, and greatly facilitated their movements, The beavy missiles bursting and crasiing in their tidst, gave pow- erful iinpetus to their locomotion, aod they more than “double qaick- ed” it from the front. THE COURT OF INQUIRY AT CITY POINT. The Courtof Inquiry which assem- bled at the Headquarters of Grant near City Point, to investigate the cause of the terrible castigatjon ad ministered by Mahone, has decided that on account of the illegality of its appuintment it had no power to ex aluine wituesses or go into the merits of the question, The matter has, therefore, been referred back to Gen. Meade, and it is stated that he in- tends preferring charges against Burnside, who, iu that event, will have to be tried by court martial. Accounts directly from the ene- my’s lines represent, that vobody was to blame on that disastrous oc. casion, but Grant. He had so re- peatedly led lis men to defeat and slanghter, that on the 30th ult., they were totally demoralized, and no amount of coaxing and even mena- cing could induce them to charge oor troops after the first bloody re- pulse, They had tried that perilous: business befure, and there is no tru- enadave, than that which tells us, “a barnt child dreads the tire.” . THE EXPLOSION AT CITY POLNT. The accidental explosion of the Sememy’s Ordnance Depot at City vint, on Tuesday, is represented to have been a much wore “omenifi- cent” affair, tu use the enemy’s own term, than the mine explosion on the But ult.

But in the face of all this the cause itselt con- tinued to advance to the hearts and the patri- | otic affecteuns of the Notkhern peyple.

Much observation and suine experience satisfies us that the Railroad Companies never can and never wi!l transport packages ate sual! arti- oles with the same safety, regolarity and peomptness that the ape gis Company does ; and as to the matter of charges, if that be the real cause of coinplaint, why do nut the companies who farm fond cls. to the Ex- press Goinpany obligate to cyafurm to a reasonable scale? But is not the advances made by the Express Company caused, ‘o a large extent, by the frequent iacrease of the demands of tbe Railruad Companies on thom ?— Raleigh Progress. This is one of the “quarters” in which oppositiva has beea made to the Suuthera | Kapress Company, and we are sure there ts vecessity fur it, We slowed, a few davs ago, sbundans reason, as the people im this section believe, why the Express Company should either be reformed or blowed upentirely. We showed that they charged about nine hundred and twenty- fave dollurs more freiyht on 20 barrels of flour shipped from this place to Peters- burg than the Railroad freight for the same shipment would bave been, If this does not show a necessity for reform then there is no occasion to complain of apy thing Befcre the war, we conid send a barrel of flour to Petersvary for atwut two del- lars; and now, the Railroads valy charge $3.10 from here to Raleigh, and we sup- pose five or six more from chere to Peters- burg. Bat just try it by Express, and you are required to pay fifty dollars and twenty-five ceats per LbI., insurance ioclud- ed, but—no war risks taken ! Now, what are the expenses to jastify this evormous charge. The Company have no engines, cars, railroad tracks, bridzea, depots, or any thing of the sort to keep up. They are at no expense al 5 pa rere o> apy ing out the wealth of the people, We reapectfally suggest to our Representatives and Senators elect to the gest Legislature, thatchis is a Gteubject wo engage their mast searching mvestigation. We have heard of certain officials on the Railroads whe have accumulated large fortunes without any kouwn means, since the war begun ; aud if, upon search, it shall be found that var Railroad Companies have dune a legitimate business with the &x- press, it may not be’ amiss (a enquire fur- ther as to the necessity of ide latter to ius crease its rates so enormously, [tis in the power of Railroud offices to give tors may have of-red tham inducements todu’so. It is human to érr, and it would not be a strange thing to find that the capidity of men had institate! a system of erring. At all events, we hope and be- five that the Legislature will probe this thing to the bottom. If, the Express Company, is utterly without excuse fur sach enormous charges, it ~hould be blown up, aod our Railroad Companies required ag Wo organise their system of tratsporta tion as fully to meet the public necaasitr, ; and at rates duly propurtivaed to tbe ser~ vice. 4 —.-— <> e--— + Nomination of McClellan.— We think this is » wise numination for. the Peace party of the North, although McCleilan has been a War man.

They pressed all the bacon apd beet, and killed all the bogs, sheep, cattle, poultiy, &., alung ther hoe of march, whether needrd or nov. if needed, they would take them along; if not, they were left lying where they shot.

Wes! all ase only the two last etiers received at the preseat, hoping that others who have thoughts on thie sulyj-ct will avail themselves of the freedom of our columns to aid in bringing it to tbe attention of both Coafederate and State autburities in order that it may either be reformed or abolished. The test tetter from which we quote is the following, dated Augusta, Ga, Aug ZOub, to wit: a * a * od * * Your courteous attention in the editonal coluwa of (he ‘Watehman,’ Jaly 18th, neaded ‘Gud Move.’ bas been read and is hereby duly ack »ow edzed and appreciated. ; “Lr your cunvety to kuow ‘who divides this splendid pile uf treasure’ sull exinis, you cau graufy it by reading list of stockholders pub- hshed im the Soath Carviina pipers according te the law of that State. “Very respectfully,” &c., &e. We withhold the name, for we presume the autbor did pot intend it for publication, | it was only fur owr private eve. We im- | avine the author meant to throw cunsid- erable significance in the words “duly ac- | knowledyed and appreciated.” We imag: , ‘ne, too, that this eminates from one of the Company—perhaps he is Superintendant of it, or otherwise interested.

Grant. That one bans dred thousaud wep sent tu Graut tomday would finish the rebellion in six weeks.

It is only in the Medical Department of tie United States service that officers are denied the universal privilege of lving and stealing! From PButier, at biz Bethel, to Hancock, ai Ream’s Station, the Yankee commanders and Yaukee newspapers have never told a solitary truti, and ae to steal- ing the whole war has ne other ob- ject aud no other character.

Dreams “are queer things” asx sage woman once observed about the men.— There is much in the philosophy of dreams that is yet w be explored and explained, and is worthy of attention from all inqui~ ers interested in Anthropology ‘as to its Psychology. There iin many dreams much that cannot be explained by those who would reduce thought to a sensation and men to a mete animal, and only a finer specimen of animal organization thao other animals asto the dexture of the brain. One res markable plenomenou has been observed by many who have attended to dreams, and have recalled when awake their dreaming unpressions wed emotions. It is this —iu dreams there is scarcely ever a sense of surprise or astuvishment, but the most uvosual events or jucidents seem to come vaturally. One yostance showing an exception to this very general law, aud also showing another law of dreams, being in some ways derived frou or influenced by the preva- Jeot habits of the waking siate, is related by a fnend with a finer effect than we cau present in type. This friend, after a tour of business and rex search es for things desired and the usual difficulues in prices, went to his woated re- pose and fell asleep. He dreamed that he was io N. York, naturally and in course still kuowing aud avowing himself a Confedere ate, and kuowing the existence of the war. So far tbe dream confirms the general law we bave asserted, that surprise or aston- ishment is rare in dreams, as we often dream of meeting and talkiog with per- suns known to have died long since, with- vul any of thy sensation that would be ex~ cited in a waking subject by such an in- terview. Our dreaming friend grew thirsty in his walks around old places in Broadway, and went into a house of fashionable irri- gation for the inver man—nothing in this surprised him, as be would bave done so if awake.

HAMP- TON—TWENTY-FIVE HUN- DRED HEAD OF CATTLE, THREE HUNDRED PRISON- ERS, MANY ARMS «& AND WAGONS CAPTURED —FIGHTING ON THE ROUTE —THE YANKEES BADLY WHIPPED. The tact was geuverally koown in this city and beyoud ifs limits, that Gen. Wade Hampton started on a raid tu the enewy’s rear on Wednes- day last, for the pucpose of bagging a Jarge drove of cattle, said to be gra~ zing at or io the vicinity of Ougyin’s Poiut, Prince George county. The matter was widely discussed, the probabilities of the success or failare duly weighed, und curiasity was reis- ed to the highest point ta the bosoms of uli to cearn the result of the expe- ditign. We have it at last, aud the eXpectativus of the must sanguine are fully realized. Ou Saturday the glad udings of Hamptou’s success reach- ed the city, and the most joyful con- gratulauious were secretly aud open ly extended to the uoble chigttain sud his command. , THE MARCH. At an early hoar Wednesday morn- ing, Gen. ammpton, with Ww. i. F. Lee’s division, (Barringer’s aud Chambliss’ brigades) Rosser’s aod Deariug’s brigades ,of cavalry, and Graham’s and McGregor’s bat- teries of artillery, struck teuts in the viciuity of Petersburg and started oo his impertant expedition. He encamped at night io the vicinity of Davai’s Mill, Sussex coanty, about eighteen miles from town. Thurs- day morning the taarch was resutm- ed, the column passing withiv three | miles of Stuny Creek, and thence across to the Jerusalem Plank Road, around to the Norfolk and Peteis- barg railroad, and encamped five miles vorth of Waverly, at 3 o'clock in the afternoon. Atllo’clock that night the coluinn was again put in motion and marched in the direction of Sycamore Church, Prince George county, about fifteen miles from town, where the enemy’s furces were knowned to be encamped. A halt was called abuut one and a half miles from this spot and preparations made for the attuck at daylight—a rest of some two hours being allowed the men and animals. THE SPIRIT OF OUR MEN. The spirit ofthe men was excel- lent. Scarcely one of them bat knew the object of the expedition, the favorable effects of its success, and all were cool and determiued, but ippressed with the importance of the andertaking belore them.— They were the right meu for the du- ty. THE ATTACK—ROUT OF THE ENEMY.

Rosser reached their position, the Yankees scattered in all directions, and fled from the place in the most precipitate mun- ner. It was bere that the men who fled betore Gen. Dearing, were made to surrender. Gen. R. took about two hundred and fifty prisoners and several valuable teams, iu addition Yo the enemy’s camp, THE PRISONERS AND THEIR CAMPS. The prisoners captared by Gens. Rosser and Dearing, belonged to the Ist District of Columbia Cavatry, commanded »t the time by Major Baker. They were armed with six- teen shooters, nany of which weap ous fell into the hands of the captors, and were safely bronglit off. The camps were prolitic of delicacies and provisiona. Oranyes, lemons, cizars, crackers und yood things and useful, were found in great profusion, aud not a few of them were secured.— Everything not brouyiit off, was de- struyed, and we leary much more was destroved than secured, on uc- count of a lack of transportation. CAPTURE OF THE CATTLE. The enemy having been complete ‘ly routed and detuoralized, it was determined to push albead at once after the cattle, sapposed to be ut Coggiu’s Point.

SOUTHERN EXPRESS COM- PANY. As ageneral principle, a profes- sion of peculiar devotion to a cause justifies an examiyation, whether it 1s founded ou sineerity or interest. A few days since the “Examiner” stated that the Southern Express Company sent by rail sixteen — 300 miles for twenty eight dollars. This is at the rate of a dollar a ton per mile, We have likewise learned that fitty-tive dollars a barrel bas been charged ou fluar by the same Company for a similar service.— This office holds the receipt of the Express Company for $3,216 90 for the transportation and delivery of ninety-one bundles of paper, weigh ing some teu thousand pounds, from Forrestville, N. C., to Richinond, AT miles. Tiis is at the rate of about thirty-one cents a ponnad.— Now, this shows either a disregard for the wants and sufferings of the Southern people, or a disrespect for the Sowihera currency. We will be told diat the Expeess Company carries large sums of money and renders other very obsequivus ser- vices to the Guvernment. We do not duubt that the Presidential pack- ages are delivered with more than orie tal scrupalosity. It is proba- ble that the Departments are obeyed with much alacrity. Possibly, gov- ernment employees én roude are ac- commodated with rest and refresh- ments iu the Express car. Should such an arrival occur as @ govern. ment official having a ration of to- bacco or whiskey, the packages may be perhaps put through, whilst food bouyht for starving women and chil- dren is left to fight its unaided way to the hungry and destitute. luil- road, telegraphic and cohscription officers, and others whom favor or fear may render it proper to concili- ate, will testify uo doubt to the: Express Company’s devotiva to} Southern interests. But the great fact that tits Company charges the | common people at the rales wea: | tioned, proves that, if the concern | be bona fide in the hands of men living at the South, the spirit of Adams & Co., animates its transac- | tions. ’ | Do our friends know for what which are, unhappily, a part of our na- tures. The fault of this imposition upoo the public lice in the law, or the want of law, and en the railroad adwwinistrations, The railroads will not make connections with each other. Any freight coming over a road aad consigned to another, even of the same guage aud gyade, must be “WILMINGTON. Having sealed “ nearly every other seaport, the Yankees are bent upon the destruction of Wilmington, the best and almost the only outtet we possess. Until the proper sta- tistics are published, no one can rea- trapabipped gad remavifestad upon uve se- | dily imagine its enormous value to cond ruad. The delays and expense upoo such freights are interminable aud iutylers ' able. Now, whilst the railroad companies will not convey through freight from one road to another, they will bire to the Southern Express Company the privilege of running freight or passenger and mail tine. The svathera Express Coinpany being, then, the monopolist of through freights, may naturally exact their own prices for the use of the public roads. Let us illustrate: A gallant Southern boy pours out bis blood in the trenches, or in the charge ; his be- veaved father seeks his corpse, wraps it in its cerement, and itis hauled by exacting Sauthern backmen to the depot. A non chalea exempt smokes his briar root pipe as he makes out his manifest, and it is) At the first Junction with an- | shipped. other road the sad burden must be daid down aod a vew bargain made for its fur- ther transportation. There mav be per haps a delay of one day, perhaps more. | It must be watched. Its mortality be- comes painfully obvious to the senses.— When its fast journey bas been performed, the last sigbt, the deep gush of »ffection over the loved remains, is impossible. Of course, all such cases must be com- mitted to the Southern Express Company, because it alone can furward them. The tax which they require from sorrow and affection, perhaps we may have some oc casiou to mention at a future ime. Again: A citizen of Richmond escapes the extor tion of the baker, aud purchases flour from a farmer of Wythe. He must store and resbip at Lynchburg, and again at the Junction, The Rail is the saine from Wythe to Richmond, yet the shipper cannot yet through transportation. But the Express company can. Consequently, the pur- chaser ewnploys the Express Company.— Does the public see huw this is! The Railroad Company is prohibited by law from taking more than fixed rates for | transportation. It has only to refuse tu make counection, xod the public must em- ploy an express. The Kalroacd Company can exact aoy price it thinks proper frum the Express, aos, altho’ an idegal contract, \ the Express will comply, rather than quit the road. It is a matter of no consequence tothe Express Company what it pays. since it cao charge the shipper with cost | and profit. It is thus the public is either ‘ { : , these extraordinary and exorbitant | driven from its own roads ur compelled to charges are made? Not for the ex- peuse of moving the freights which they deliver—that is done by the Railroad Company; but it cousists of the charges of the Railroad Com- panies for the transportation and the profit charged by the Express Com- pany for presenting the bill. They may tell you that they are insurers ; as if all common carriers were pot insaorers. You way be told of vigi- lance and activity displayed in the | service. But it is just this: The | railroads transport the commodity and the Express Company presents the bill aud charges their profits upon it. The Svnthern Express Company. has not built one yard | of the Southern railroad they run) on; has nut repaired one euyine that draws them ; does not, in fact, know or care for rails or enziues at all; has not, perhaps, ef stuck in one of the roads frou) which they derive sueh magniti- cent dividends. The people of the South chartered, bailt and equip- ped the railroads of the Soati.— The Southern Exprese Company contribute to transportation as cap- ital stock, an iron safe, eome way ons «aod horses and a few exempis to carry its packages. Isa raid upon the railroad appre- hended/—The old men and boys of the coantry are marched from their homes to guard depots and bridges. Does the raid come?— These old men and boys shed their blood for the defence of the pub-' lic property. Is the road destroyed? The labor and lumber of the peo ple is impressed to repair it. What part of tuis risk and responsibil’ty does the Express Company share?! At the earliest syinptowm of a raid its agents promptly and properly he. take theinselves to there heels. The danger end work bein’ over, the agent feappears, with lis gold cuain, diamond pin, otled hair, special ear, and private whiskey.

Ourselves out of temper against qualities a dollar | God formd that we shoud pat piling else, with | pay an intrusive agency the exorbitant ‘exaetions which it may demand. Now, we really think it is time to re- trench this unnecessary expeuse. In this bloody war, which is calling old men from their chimuey uouk, and boys from their | . play ground, it is really time to economise this luxury of ao Express. We need horses for hyht batrertes. packages to collect freights, We need men. There are attached tu the Southern | Express office numerous highly able-bodied and acuve operatives, We sometimes see } two or three smoking on the Southern | Express wayon, who would, no doubt, hear the command of “ activa front!” delight Let us reform this a litte then, The railroad depots have also bands ex- empt for trausportsuog wad Gelivery.— There are cases in this Commonwealth where there are two able bodied the same depot exempted trom uilitary the other as the exres avent renounce this! Why are plouzhs stopped and mills closed for want of a single man, | wheo the agents of traosportanon are cus | ‘plicated? The rairuad | form every act of transportation except de jiivery.

COOPER, A. & I. Genera!. HORRIBLE VILLAINY. The New York [Herald of the 5th has been received in Richmond. In it, says the Despatch of Monday, is a letter from Grant to Sheridan, in which he directs him to barn every house in the Valley ; to kill every horse, cow, hog, sheep or other ani- mal; to destroy every mill; to set fire toevery barn, wheat or hay stack 3 cnt down every ornamental tree and carry off every negro. He says that if this war continnes twelve months longer, be Cesires to convert the whole Valley into a howling wilderness. There is nothing in mod- ern history so atrocious as this order. It is tbe act of aman with small brains and great vanity, who hae been beaten and baffled until his senses have fled completely. It is wounded s, init. He cannot whip Lee, bat he can starve the women and children. We turn him over to Gen. Lee. This order was issued while Sher- idan was, ashe thonght, carrying all before him. It had not time to be published before he was flying down the Valley with his treebooters, and Early in pursuit. Is there a man belonging to the Valley who can stay away from his colors under such circumstances {If there is, he must be dead to all the impulses that ennoble man. Never was vengeance more loudly called for. ° Financrat Trousees THE Norta.— The New York /erald, of the Sth inst., Saye: We are onthe eveof a crisis worse than that of 1857, and as dreadful as that of 1837.

WHAT THE WAR HAS RE- VEALED. Official documents from the War | office at Washington show that the Yankee Government bas ealled into the field, from first to Jastpover three millions of mep. They have, be- \ sides, some six hundrad vessels of war, equivalent, we should think, in what they have prevented us from doing, to a million mere of men.— They have the advantage of a supet- abundant supply of arms and age lonnanition, the finest and mest effee- tive in the world, Their transpor— tation is ten times enpernor to ours, They have the amplest stock of hors- ee for cavalry and artillery, are able ito keep them well fed, and to replace them as they becone uns: rviceable. They nre able toclotieand feed ther men better than we, and to take bet- ter care of them when sick or woun- ded, thereby adding greatiy to their efficiency. Were it poseil le to cotn~ mute these advantages men, they would deuttteas be equal to half a milhon mure. So that, it may be said, what we have lisd toa tace, and base been enabled to resist suc- cessfully down to the present Ume, ‘has been equal to tour and a hail millions vf men, It has always been mnaintained, inn arregan® spirit, thteo ithoagh not took fier wateh ova largeand eour-.

Ata mesting of the Commissioners of your respective Statey to fix priees under the un- »ressment lawg coavened by order of the Secretary of War, at the imstance of the See+4 retary of the Treasury, at Montgomery on the 20ch instant, for mutual conference with a view to uniformity of prices between the several Stages, and Ly a reduction of prices just to the government aod the , to sustain the credit of the country, the under- signed were appointed a committee to address you on this important subject, and to appeal to you, who of all bave it most in your pow- er to bring aboat this desired result, to come to the aid of the Secretary of the Treasury, to the aid of the Commissioners, and to the aid of your couutry upon this question, vital to ber life, and to your own fusure interest aod weitare. It is your own government we ask you to }.seems to reside uuder existing ews, the only sustain—-your own cause we appea! to you to support—your own eredit we wish you to uphold. Bar two things are required oa your part todo ths, One is, to furnish your supplies tu the government at low rates; tbe other to invest your surplus onan d in the goveruinent securiues, But two things are necessary to bring the war to a suceessful close. Men aud money. Men to fight our battles, aid mouey to provide the means to support Gur wraies ia the field. The patriot- ism of te country has supphed the men, and we appeal to that same patriotism on the part of Wiose at home cheerfully to supply the maeans. 1c must be known to you that in propor. ton as the government expenses are reduced, 30 in proportion will jts burdens upon you by taxation be reduced. To reduce its expenses you must give value to its currency, so that its purchasing power may be increased, «nd the largest amount of supplies secured with the least amount of money. There are two ways to give value to our currency. The first 1s to diminjsh its volume ; the second : to have confitence in our government secarities.— Both these depend upon yourselves. There are twa ways to diminish the volume of carrency. One is, to furnish the govern- ment with your surplus supphes at a low rate, the other, to invest your surplus money 12 government securities. It must be plain to you that this will sustain the government credit, and that it is in your power to accom- plisb it It magt also be plain to you that this is to your own best interest, as you will then hold yourselves the government indebt- edness which will be returned to you in in- terest upon her securiles, and in your dimin- ished burdensof taxation. But do you dis trust the goverameut securities? If you do, you distrust your ewn cause, and by so do- ing, impede the progress of your independ- ence. - Each one of your States was represented in the Couvention, and the Commissioners, after the most mature considerauon, deter- | mined on @ uniform schedule of maximum prices fer une several States, reducing the av- erage prices heretofore about one uurd, or perhaps slightly more. An extract from the closing remarks of the President will inform | you ot the spirit of the deliberations of the | Conreution : { “Never, in all my experience in delibera- | uve bodies, have I seen mauifested more har- | mony, more courtesy, aud more conciliation | between the members, and between them | and the Chair, than have been exhibited in | your entire proceedings; and each member of the Convention bas, with earnest an@ con- | scientioas faithfulness, endeavored to dis- charge his duty to the government and the people. i “We have unitedly taken an advanced step | in the reduction of prices. by the estabiish- | ment of a oniturm maximum seleduie, vo | sustain the credit of the ewrrency, a respon- sibility of which each one of us has deeply | felt, but which nécessiPy compelled us tu take | in therexige::ves of the country. “The peoouic I think, will appreciate our tion, and approve what duty required and | patnotisin de:uanded ; but whether approved yy ali or not vursis the respoosibiiity ; and we leave it to the calm judgment of that | poble opinidn which it goes out to meet, and | which filled with a just appreciation of the ; success uf our struggling cause, will determine 5 justly upon the measures which we bave ts | ken, financially, to sustain it.” Congress bas provided that the expenses , of the yovernme nt are to be paid ia Treasury | po'tes, wud vert.ticates of indebtedness bear | SIX pet enh iilerest payable two years after | the ratification of @ treaty of peace, and free | trom taxauon.

The conditivn of the curreuvy, and the em- barrassments resulung trom its derangement, are well known to all, When gold’ sells’ al twenty for une as compared with Treasury notes, everybody understands that the cur rency is depreciated ; and when it is said that the government supplies are purchased with this depreciated currency, we all uuder- stand as weil Chat (be expeuditures mast ne cessarily be heavy. But theze evils shoul not be allowed to go further, The abylity oi the governwent to conduct the war to ge sue ecaful isane, and the <bappiness and welf re of our people after the war shall have termi- uated, are too deeply involved. And in the functions conferred upon you by Congress, power capable of interposing a check to the of depreciation. Looking, then to the dignity cf your office. and the momen:ous results depending upon your action, I have thought it ny duty to communicate to you every information pos- sessed by this department that may aid your judgmenutin the discharge of your Important duties. One active cause o! the depreciatien is dig- trust of the government secarcies; and will endeavor to siiow that this distrust is without reasonable toundauen, The entre public debt, taunded and anfund ed, was, on the first of July last, about $1.- 250,000. The expenses from 1st Jaly to 3lst December , are estimated at about 325,000,000 Making anaggregate of —— $1,575,000,000 In this amoant isincludud $250,000,000 of 4 per cent."bends to be issved in place of a like ainount of our currency, funded un- der act of February 17, 1864; but a cousid- erable portion of this sam will be turned in to the Treasuty, under the Tax act—or in other words, the whole sum proposed by the taxation of the present year will be apphea- ble to the redaction of this aggregate of $1,- 575,000,000. Let a liberal allowance, how - ever, be made opposite contingencies, and tet the debt on the Ist of January, 1865, be set down in rovad auiwbers at $1.500,000,000 Let the war be supposed to coutinue, aad in its progress add $500,000,000 more to the eS uativnal debt, making the aggregate finally | $2.000,000,000. Tuts wool’ entail upon us | an annual interest of $140.000,000. | Why shonld our ability to bear this bur- den be dunbted ? Before this. war, it was alleged (and in my opinion with great truth) that a sun fnily as yea! as tins was annval- x paid in tribute to the Northern States uy should it not be paid with equal eas> to our own government by whom it will be | returned to us in the paynent af interest. It may be supposed by some that the ina ;- nitude of the debt, in proportion to our pru perty, may lead to geperal insolvency and bankruptcy. Let us examine the grounes of this possible apprehension. If a plPite: | whose property betore the war was worth $100,000, sells, daring its progress. wheat, corn, etc, to the value of $100 000, and takes government bonds for the amount, how does it ifcur the msk of being ruined?

The whole question, complicated as it may at first appear, is perfectly simple, and lies in a nutshell, Congress has ordered the fol- lowing expenditures to be made, viz : For pay of the army, $75,000,000 For clothing, shoes, material, , transportation, &c. For provisions lor the army. 125,000,000 100,000,000 $300,000,000 They have directed these expenditures to be paid for in treasury votes, and in certih- cates of indeteduess, bearipg six per cent, interest and free from: taxation; and for the secn-ity and ultimate redemption ofthe treas- ury notes, they have provided non-taxable Six per cent. bonds, which they direct me to sell for treasury notes.

AT horoughly Yankee Calcula- tion.—A writer in the Jefferson County (New York) Union, who has been muking calculations relative to the number of men killed thus far in this war, gives the following re- sults: “There have been enongh al- ready slain to encircle our State, if their dead bodies were laid in one continuous line. If they were plac- ed in coftins and corded, they would eonnt thirty-nine thousand cords.— Iflaid in a wall twenty-five feet thick and thirty feet high, it would be overa mile and a quarter in length. If five feet thick and ten fect high, the pile would reach a- cross the State. If piled up in a ten -acre lot, they would be nearly two hundred feet high. And if laid up- oa the ground, they would cover ev- ery foot of soil in Jefferson county. Seventy-five thousand tons of human blood have teen spilled in Dixse’s avil—enongh to turn every spindle in Lowell, and if the tears were ad- ded to the flood, it would turn the machinery of the continent, and the unavailing sighs would fll every yocean sail, The one-half tas not iyet been told. The muiiions of woun- ded and maimed for life must be ta- ken into accountin summing up the grand total of evils incident to this bloody and fanatical war.” The following are the losses of the negro regiments in the assault on Petersburg: 23d regiment, colored —15 othcers and 400 men killed, wounded and missing. 2Sth regi- nent, colored—-11 officers and 150 men killed, wounded and = missiug.

From the Auyusta Chronicle, Oct. 20, HOOD’s MOVEMENTS. The greater pait of Sherman’s army bas been drawn from Atlanta, and is vow at Chattanooga and Bridgeport. It is divids sections, and the Railroad destroyed by which they could re-unite. Eiyht thous ar- tersville, and two thuasand at the E;uwah. Thomas has twelve thousand with him at Bridgeport, and there are 23,000 at Chat- fanooga, Thus has the caleulation that Sherinan would be compelled by Hood’s moveinent to withdraw bis army from At Janta been verified. Whacis yet to become of it reais Wo be seen. Gen, Hood, judg- ing from present appearances, will keep it moving for some tine te come, Beauregard haviog united bis genius with the impetuous valor of Hood, we may anticipate a stirring campaign, [twill be We trust that before the autumn he cannot with impunity entrench himself in the heart of our land. We bope, too, that the gallant militia of this and the surrounding States will yive Slocuin a shove if he should be dilatury about leav ing Atlanta; or captur~ his curps——a trophy whioi would cover them with glory. Should our ariny reach Middle Tennes see, it will Gud » yreat abundance of pro visions. The crops are said never to have been finer in Chat naturally rich and bean titul seetion. It is there, we julye, that Gen. Hood is arming to mak his stane, te cut off Sherman’s raitoad communication, as at any point south of it’ he would fail for want of subsistence. We expect that our army will pads hy Chattrnoogs without attempting to carry it by storm, as the euetny can be compell- ed to evacuate It by stinply cutting off its Northern communeations, The plan is to drive or draw Sherman outof Georgia and fore, Hood as running away from Sherman as fest as he can, ated wall Likely avers ay battle with the forees sent to confront hina, | if possible, de can achieve a bloodless and decided victory over Sherinan be, te use ‘is oWl expressive lanvuaye, & fastens ing bis claws upon the ratlread in his rear and keeprog them there.” YELLOW FEVER AV NEWBERN.

Weare in-the midst of the dullest acason of the seige. There is actual- ly nothing stirring upon the entire soathside front, aod both armies are enjoying that rest, which both need.

Until be gets these he will vev- er take Petersburg, and frou pres- entencouraying signs, he will not thea be able to do so.

Who firet touk possession of the road. Thirty more of Lincoln’s recrnits reported inside the Confederate lines yesterday and Sunday. These fel tows, who according to Northern journals, are burrying forward so fast to give the finishing blow to the rebellion, and capture Richmond aud Petersburg, seem to be in equal ly as great hurry to get back to their homes, and are pursuing the proper course to vet there. We understaud the Yankee troops who ontnwnber the Spathern army three to one, are being armed ex tensively with a repeating rifle or musket. This weapon has the iu proved mnsket barrel, but ia clai- bered, and tires twice without re Joading.

Work of that) kind will do more to promote a permanent, last- ing peace, than ten thousand letters like thoge of Gov. Brown, Vice Prest- | deat Stephens and Mr. Boyce.

The result is, of course, greatly in favyr of the former, the letter having been written for electioneering purposes. It affords full confirmation of the enormous losses said to have been sustained by Grant in the campaign from the Rapidan to the South side of the James. Grant erossed the Rapidan on the 4th of May last. According toGen. Na,lee, his army, ang at that time, was estimated variously at 120. to 130,000 men. [le places it at the lower figure, and says that he after- wards received reinforcements to the amount of 45.000, and added Bats ler’s ariny, 40,000 more, Under hie own eye, then, at the lowest esti- mat», he had 205,000 men, He es- timates Sieyal’s forces at 380,000, imaking 235,000. On the tirst of ' September, Grant's force, exclusive of Sheridan’s (whieh is put down at | 30,000, but which we know to have {been reduced below the half of that amoant) was 50,000 men, Of course he bad iest, aceording to yankee ac- counts, 155,000 men—more than he lermsed the Rapidan with vn the 4th fof May.

EARLY’S OPERATIONS. A writer in the N.Y. World, whose statements we published a few days ago, says that, from firet to last, 90,- 000 meu have been employed against Gen. Early, and of that number six- ty-five thousand have been either killed or wounded, or are inissing. Now, we rea!ly do think that if Gen. Early, with the force which he had, has kept the whele Valley, except two counties, agaigst ninety thou- sand men, preventing them from ta- king Lynchbarg, and thereby cloe ing up Richmond ou the weet, and from coming down upon it from the worth, and closing it up in that di rection—and has, at ~ _— time, compelled Grant to gead a toa of his army away, iia. captured, taken prisoners or stam- peded 65,000 out of the 90,000 afore- said—we say, if he has done all th with the force at his command, an still holds his ground, and is ready in tanning thé blockade are splen- did steamers, which ‘von at the rate of thirteen to fifteen khots an hour.”| Since the battle of Thareday last, and the subsequent retreat of the THE DUTOH GAP ENTER-| gnemy from the “field of conflict to ® .

There are, no doabt, many gentlemen who could have done inuch better, had they beeu 80 in- clined; but uafortanately, such per- sons are to be found outside of the army, and persistebtly refuse to the coantry the great benefit of their military gevius. Wethen the army, we are disposed to think there are few who coald have done better than General Early has done. He was sent to drive off Hanter, as well as to invade Maryland and esp vania, and he did it—to draw off a portion css Grant’s army, anc = <4 it. A Napoleon, or our own Jack: son might, possibly, have struck down the several armies of the eue- wy in pitched battles, captured the enemy’s Capital, seized Baltimore, ravaged Penusylvania, and cveu carried the Southern Cross within sight of Philadelphia. But it is a possibility merely, aud very far from even a probability. It is a very im- portant consideration whether the country can afford to lose the wen | that would undeubtedly Lave been lost in such an enterprise, however successfu!, and what weald have been our condition had they been lost? As it is, Gen. Early has his army safe, though reduced, and it) certainly is no small compliment that the force which fought last week at Cedar Creek should have been supposed by the enemy to have been reinforced by Longstreet’s corps. Rich. Whig. RUNNING THE BLOCKADE AT WILMINGTON. The following account of the per- ile and profits of blockade running at Wilmington, is taken from an En- giish paper : “ From a passenger on the Flaim- ings, we Jearn that the blockading equadron off Wilmington cousists now ot one hundred and scventy vessels, so that it is a wonder that any vessel can escape such a close blockade ; and indeed it is a very difficult and dangerons work. There are now abont forty sieamers enyay- ed in running the blockade. There is plenty of cotton always ready for | despatch, but move growing, us ev- ery man between the age of 16 and 60 is obliged to serve in the war. The Yankees have removed all the lights approaching the harbor, and everything thar will enable tie Con- federates to find their way into safe quarters. The consequence is that besides a pilot, every Confederate ship has to carry a signal man, who works the ship by agreed signs, with | which he alone of all on board is acquainted.

The question ia dispute between the two Governments relative te the exchange of pris- oners of war has been frequently presented in former messages and reports, and is fully treat- ed by the Secretary. The ‘soli¢itude of the Government for ‘the relief of out captive fel- jow-citizens has known no abateinent; but’) has, on the contrary, been still more dee ply evoked by the additioual sufferings to which they have been wantonly sebjeoted by depri- vation of adcquate fodd, elothing and fuel, which they were not even Legit to pur- chase fron the prison sutleds Finding that the evemy attempted to exguse their barbar- rous treatment by the unfgunded allegation that it, was retaliatory for ute like conduct on ouf part, an offer was made by us with a view of eriding all pretext for sach Fectiminations or preteaded retaliation, \ The offer has beta acceptad, and each Gov- erument is berealter to be alowed to provide necessary cotfurts to its éwo Gtizens held captive by the other.

Among those who are already disposed for peace, many are actuated by principle and by disapproval and abliorrence of the ipiquitous warlare that Weir goverg- ment is waging, while others are moved by the conviction that it is no longer to the in- terest of the United States to conunue a struggle iu which success is unatiainable.

Various and conflicting are the rumors which have come to our ears relating to the causes which led to this recent and unexpected misfor- tune, but as careful journalists, de- siring to propogate the trath only, and leave crimination to court mar— tial, we have endeavored to avoid the Scylla and Charibdis of popalar sentiment naturally incident to such an occasion. That somebody is to blarne in the matter, bas been ob- scurely hinted at by some papers, | and we ourselves cannot divest us entirely of like suspicion. From all the information we can gather, it seems pretty clearly made out that the night on which the af- fair occurred was a dark, peculiarly favorable one for the enterprise.— That a torpedo boat of the simplest construction, manned by thirteer daring volanteers from the enemy’s fleet, and commanded by one Capt. Cushing, steamed up to Plymoath, capturing on their way the pickets on board the Southfield, at the moath bearing of this redoubted veteran, | rekindled afresh the spirit of all) arvand him, and he w&s greeted | with enthusiastie welcome by lis: devoted troops.

Baker immediately ordered a line of sharpshooters to be thrown out along the river, bnt the heavy | and accurate fire of the yonboate drove the: back, and the enemy | came down vpon the town, passing Warren Neck. As they approached, they dred the town in several places, killing} some three or four men, including | an old citizen, and Wounded abont | the same number. Nothing more | being sow left to do in thls emer: ! gency, bag to retreat with hooor, | Gen.

There was somo little activity on the extreme right yest@rday tworn- ing, but as the day edvauced the ugual quiet was restored, Canno- nading was quite brisk for awhile, which led to the supposition in the city that skirmishing, ifmot actaal fighting, was in progress. These réports were groundless, however, as the Yankees neither advanced, nor showed any disposition to do ao. The Yankee sharpshooters on oar right are daily practising with their loug rane rifles. This is done un- der orders from Headquarters, that in the time of battle they may prove effective in picking off cur officers |, aud gunners.

New York Herald of the 9th, {for which we are indebted to soma somone friend,) commenting upon’ Lincoln’s re-election, seems to consider it an easy matter now to win back the South, pd then it goes for the Monroe doctrine avd an army of 100,000 men to march against Canada and atiother of 100,000 men to march against Mexieo: to bring Palmerston and Russell and Louis Napoleon wp terms. It says all history teaches that nothing but a foreign war will re cement the sundered sympathies of a people, and so the South is to be graciously permitted to fight its way back into the good graces of the yan- kees by joining them in two vew wars in place of the present one. The South will ask to be excused. If it must fight any one, by all means let it be the detestable yankee.— Fay. Observer. —— --e — An Important event to Lappen Two Yan Hence.—The date of the end of the world is satisfactorily fixed for the year 1866. ‘There is an ancient prediction, repeated by Nostrademos in his Centuries,” which says that when St. George shall crucify the Lord, when St. Mark shall raiae Him, and St. John shull assist at His ascension, the end of the world shall cone.

Cy MUADAY EVENING, NOV. 28, 1864, The ouly papers, as far as we have ob- served, that bave endorsed Mr. Davis's proposition to detail Ministers of the Gos and Editors, and bis preposition to call » service forty thousabu . Confederate,” of this City, aud the dacsbary ” Watchman.”— Ra! Standard. We oppose the Exemption law and favor its repeal, because we be- eve the principle involved in the exemption of classes to be inconsis- rent with the genius of our institu- tons; or, a8 Mr. Dawis more proper: ly expresses it, “in a form of gov- | like ours, where each citi- | rire give wid erameni zen enjoys ap equality of rights and privileges, nothing can be more in: | y.dious than an unequal distribution of duties and obligations.” All should stand on the same footins ; | and when we have a comnion inte- | rest to protect, all should be requir: ed to bear alike its burdens, aod share equally its benefits, as far as practicable. This we believe to be the true principle, and it is this that we endorse of the President’s pro position. We have also denounced that li- conse of the publie press which has | wantonly inflicted upon the Confeder | acy more dangerous wounds than tie | foreign enemy ; and in view of the evils the Coantry bas bad to endure from this source, there being no oth- er form of protection against it offer- ed, have intimated our approval of | the Presidenc’s thonght of a restric: | tion apon it to this extent: “ We are not in favor of absolute mea sures, but if there is oue thing more than another that would justify the arbitrary interference of government, or that would | bear the least sembiance of justice ander | ise plea of military necessity, it is a res suction of the fiberties taken by certain | newspaper presses of this Confederacy. Nothing would be more conducive of peace _-do more to unclog the wheels of gov- | «rmment and render efficient the efforts viich are putting forth to secure our in- Jependence and establish an eariy and termanent peace—tban tbe enactment of | . law prohibiting the publication of every , ching that might tend to demoralize, dis- | courage or divide our army or people.” Watchman of the 9th. We have said pothing in favor of t he President’s “proposition to de- tail Ministers of the Gospel,” nor of “his proposition to call in to service forty thousand negroes,” so that the Standard’s charge is in character with that print—all false. We concur in the almost universal sentiment of exempting Ministers of. the Gospel from military service. A taw to this end do-s no vivlence to tue public sense of propriety, be- | cause there is fitness in it, although 't is class legislation to that extent. The Exemption law might stand as to | them withont either endangering the cause of the Country or doing injus- tice to other citizens. Bat when ex-, emption is extended to comprehend ne-fourth or one-third part of the: population it becomes an odious dis- | criwination between citizens, and is _rolitic of discontent and righteous | iudignation. We see no reason why | editors and prioters sbonid cinim ex- enption that may not be arged in | behalf of men in any other of the | industrial pursuits of life, and we | think it absurd to set ap any sach ; claim. The only class iu the Coun- | try who could not claim their plea | is the drones in society—the worth- | jess consumers, Who pay to the world | nothing for the privilege of living. In regard to the President's pro- position touching the employment of negroes in the public service, we have tormed no decided opinion. Thosobject is both new and difficult, wid needs to bave shed upon it the Ligh: of var, ablest and best men. The Vresident toncbes it cantiously, +: f Jesirons, merely, of leading the lber of our more intelligent blacks public mind to eontemplate it ae a lust resort in our desperate straggle for independence and Country. We are, however, prepared ‘to say, that we would be williny to see any nuin- ] under arins in Confederate service, | ' if there of their own deliberate | choice, either from the motives of affection and sympathy for the peo- | ple with whom they have been rear | od, or from # just conception of the! results of the stru:ryte xs, in case of) our defeat, it mast affect them, pro-| | vided 1t could be done without vio | lence to weil established right prin: | ples, and without disturbing the har- mony of our peopl: at home and in! the army. It is x question invaly: | ing so inany and such great changes, | however, that we conceive nothing short of our ninvost extremity can lead the Couviry to accept any s0- | lation of it that lias vet been presen: | | gresallye.

OUR FUTURE PROS PEQTS, The Presidential Election in ‘the United States, or rather the large majorities by which Mr. Lipecia has carried the most of those States, it would seam, are an ¢v- Jorsemeat bythe ypeople of the policy whieh shaped bis course in the prosecution of the wicked war, which, for the last four years, be has so euergetically against us. We may make our calcula- tion, therefore, to have coutinued war fot four years longer. This is virtually plac- ing ia the hagds of Abraham Lincoln the entire mili resources of the Yankee nasen, and of course no efforts will now, be spared to affect ead complete our sub- jugation,and rain, Our Government, itis useless vo say, will make every effort to meet and vanquish his marsbaled hosts, and to convince by blows, that deluded official, that he can never conquer a peo- ple like ourselves. In the meantime, those who are allowed to remain at home, apd pursue quietly thelr peacefal avonations, ought td remem- ver that this is a privilege not granted for selfish purposes, but for-the common good. There is aw urgent necessity for reform this class of wen. Every man should make up his mind to do his whole duty, in providing every thing he can for the helpless families .of our. brave defend- ers. More be done for them, by those who are able, or now, that those who have left helpless families at home, have nothing to look forward to but con- tinued war, without a shadow of a pros pect of speedy peace, they will desert and come home, and our cause will be rained. The fighting material of our army is com~ posed largely of laboring men, thonsands of whom have left helpless families in the hands of frieuds, relying apon their pro- mises to divide the !ast morsel of meat and | hundred and fourteen eulisted men | Geselated, churches bread with their families. In many instances these promises have been wantonly bro- ken, and families that are entitled to the sympathy and assistance of every !over of bis country, have often times beeao almost without bread! In many instances, the mother, in the midst of her destitution and want, not knowing to whom else to apply for aid, writes to the soidier father of her nungry children, and gives him a descrip- | tion of ber destitute circumstances.

Mr. Editor, there are painful facts—still, they are facts. This ought not soto be. It wild not be in the future, if our people at home wil! do their whole duty. Whenever our people beeome sofficienfly awake to the impor- tance of success in this war: whenever our | people, as a whole, become willing to deny self something in order to promote the common good, these things will cease to be. No man ought to think about laying up money now. He ought to regard each houseaold from which bas gone a soldier to fight the battles of his country, as a portion of his own family, because a mem- ber of the family Confederate. After feed- ing,clothing and shoeing his own family, | and paying his taxes, every surplus cent ought to be expended in supplying the | wants of the families of those, who are pe~ nilling their ald for our liberties. : Let our farmers, tanners, factory owner and indeed aii classes of men emulate eacl: | \!)' other in seeing who can do the most in feeding, shoeing and clothing the hungry, barefooted, ragged little children of our brave and patnotic soldiers. When ver this noble and generous spirit supplants aud reigns instead of the selfish, oiserly speculating spirit that now characterizes many of our people, we may regard it as the harbinger of peace. Soon the sound of the noisy trump of the recediuy toe will grow faint, and peace, beaven born peace will crown oar efforts, and will make alad the hearts of a free and happy peo- ple. : SIGMA.

To the Editor of the Whig: It is proposed by the Secretary of the ' Treasury to tax farmers in money on their | whule property, and also to continue the | Uthe tax in kind on their crops, allowing no credit therefor, during and after the war, thus mortgaging their property “to | redeem the present curreney.” It would { be far better for them to repudiate the whole debt and currency than to preserve their share by paving the whole. Already | the farmer is more oppressed by taxation | than any other class, becanse be pays in | sind and is allowed only about a tithe of , its value towards his money tax. In the new scheme he is not to be allowed anv- thing for his tithe ia kind but his shar: | of the prospect of ultimate relemption j His produce generally is impressed 2: | prices that will not pay one-half of the cos: | of production, while ‘tradesmen, machan-~ | tes and speculators of all kinds are pe: mitted theharge him, for articles neces: sary and indispeusable for his busines.. any price their faney or avarice may dic inte. It is po want of patriotism that duces farmers to complain—for they hav» | done more and sutlered more for the cau<e than any other class. It has been cor coded that the taxation on Banks is so iu Inous and unequaled that if continued it will induce them to wind up their business —and the same remark can be properly appl vd to farmers. If a man were to buy or to rent farm property now at pres: ent prices, and soli his produce at Govern ment prices, he would very soon beeonk nsoivent. The most vital interest in th: Confederacy is the farming interest, and if the Governinent intends to comm t na tional suicide, the easiest way is to refrain from tostering and to oppress with heavy ln unequal burthens the interests of a. riculture.

That tie Yaukees have already ' suffered a disaster there, aud that of po ordinary proportions, is sufficiently evident from thelr own statement of the case. At the commencement of this war, Halleck , advised Lincoln, as a matter of policy, to ! claind'a victory in evert battle, whether ' defeated or not.

The only points from which we receive, or can reasonably hope to receive intelligence of movements in Georgia are from Augusta and Savannah. The Savannah papers are behind their date in arriving, but we give the latest item we have or Gan ylean which is the following from the Vews, of Tuesday the 29th : Wu. Journal. SHERMAN Seems*o be waking no progress in his invasion of the Bate 6 is no nearer th coast than he was several days ago. He appears to be hesi- tating, and acting altogether as though he were caught in a bad tox and don’t know how to get out.— Afraid to go forward, and cannot go back; his men and animals tired and hungry, with our forces rapidly closing in around him—all these things excite the liveliest hopes ot his utter destraction. If these hopes are realized it will be regarded by millions of people, North and South, aa a grand preliminary to the closing of the war, as the surrender of Corn- wallis was regarded jn this country and England as the end of the war of the Mevsicdac! notwithstanding the British government tried st#ll to carry iton. We exhort every man, as he deprecates the continuance of this cruel war, and as he desires its speedy termination, tocome forward atonce and give his help. If all will come, weecan close out Sher- man’s big job for him a little differ- ent from what he calculated on. The Augusta papers are later, be- | ing of the date of Thursday, the Ist | instant, but they really contain hard from the Chronicle and Sentinel : The Georgia Road.—Trains ran | upon the Georgio road as fur as Greensboro’. The work of repairing the road to Atlanta will be commenced as soon as racticable. .

From Below.—The telegraphie communication with Millen has been re-opened. Wheeler was still engaged in tight ing the Federals on Wednesday.— Results unknown. It is reported that a party of Shev- toan’s scouts visited Demera’s Fe=ry on Sunday. They remained some time in that vicinity taking observa- tions. It is thought by many that Sherman will endeavor to cross the Savannah river at that point. It is said that during one of the skirmishes between Whiecler aud Kilpatrick, that the latter was su hard pressed that he lost his hat— and escaped only because he had a flecter horse than his pursuer. The Yankee General certainly had wu oar Trew escape. Pouring m.—The train on the Georgia Road last nipht broushe down a large namber of men from y the interior countics, who are re-— sponding to the Governer’s procla- mation.

All that they could claiin he has, but in greater in- tensity than any of them. . Ifthe Jnguérer can justly accuse The Yankees that to our surrow. Refined taste delights in jewelry, plate and fine linen. The Yankees have not sto— len every spoon, every silver tork, every piece of linen. Their “refined taste” Jed them to tear ap the graves in Newbern, -and tear off the bits of silver npon the coffins, inscribed with the namee of the dead. It caused them to eteal every picture and every statue they have come across in the Southern coon- try. It prompte the: to take the rings from every lady’s finger and the necklace frow her neck. [t made the Yankee General Kiog steal a Atlanta as Left by Sherman-a City in Ruins. The first reliable account we bave seen of the present condition of Atianta, is set forth in a letter to the Memphis Appval. Tt will be read with painful interest by refugees from the devoted city: Ariana, Ga., Nov. 20, 1864. You have beard before this that the Fed- erals have burned aud evacuate! Atlanta; but for information of the refugees and the exiles who have been driven from their homes, allow me to trouble you with a few lives, as all will be anxious to know whe ther their homes have been spared by the vandal hands. There is not a house stand ing on Whiteball street from Rowark’s corner to Wesley cliapel on Peachtree srteet, and on Marietta from the street ruo- ning from the Baptist church ; down De- catur street a short distance below Colonel Cowart’s buildings on Decatur street. All the railroad depots are berned—iucluding the passenger depot. All the hotels, foun- dries, railroad shops, Government works aod mills are burned. As I came into the city on that evening, I observed only three buildings of note standing west of the Macon road—Coelonel Colyer's, Hammock's and Dr. Sells’, T. M. Clark’s house is the only building stadiag betwen Peter's street and the railroad.— Col. Porter's house and whe two houses south of it are standing. All the bouses on Marietta street are barned except a short space from Dr, Powell's to Robinson's houes, opposite the State depot. Except Noreross’ Mills, L. Dean's and B.O.

The proceedings are not of suffi- cient importance to interest our readers by detailed reports. We cull a faw items of prominence from the proceedings of Taesday, Iu the Senate, Mr. Granam, offer- eu a resolution instructing the Secre- retary of the Treasury to inform the Senate what disposition has been nade of Ue machinery, implements, w&e., ofthe Miut aad Assay Cttice at Charlotte, N.

In the House, the currency bill was auder discussion, in which some of the North Carolina delegation participated. Somme amevdmentg had Seen proposed. Mr. Gilmer, of N. C., thought it best to carry out all the recommen- dations oi the Secretary of the Treag- ury. The depreciation of the cur- reney, in his opinion, is owing to the redundancy of the curreucy, and the belief on the part of the people that when the war is over it will hot be redeemed, and also take such measures us will restore the confi: deuce of the people in it. He con- sequeutly favored the bill ag origin- wly reported withoat the proposed «inendments as to the change in the prices of the Staples therein men- toned. Mr. Smith, of North Carolina, of-: tered a substitute for the 3d section ef the bill, levying after the war a tax of 10 per ceut. upon exports and imports. He estimated our exports according to tle calculation of the Secretary of the Treasury, at three hundred millions. Mr. Bridges, of N.

The Richmond Whig of the 19th says, Dr. H. P. Retter, of Eden:on, N. C., was recently arrested at Salisbury, N.C., on the eharge of being aspy. He was received here yesterday, and committed to the Cass tle for trial. Le is believed to have gone ap to Salisbury to acquire information for the enemy. Sterling King, of Keatucky, was yeicr- day committed to the Castle on the charge being a spy. He was arrested at Wythe- ville. He and another maa, who has also been arrested, had been visating the pris- eas at Danville. —— Impressments.—lt will be seen that the House of Commous has adopted some resolutions in regard to impressments. We do not agree with oar friend of the Goldsboroagh State Journal, in hisremark that the | P of these resolutions shows | When the rebels lay down thwor House of Commons to be “ rof—; arts there will be peace ; butat the | same time they are admonished that the ten.” Weare decidedly, ia favor of protesting against the preseut im— shanaeetie operations, but we would ve preferred thatthe languaye of | the resolutions sheuid have been modified, and ove or two of them owitted, but we cannot agree that it ic assign of unsoundness to vote for the resolutions, for we know many members who voted for them to be as sound as President Davis himeelf. Sach men as Patrick Murphy, Am- brose Costner, W. T. Shipp, J. L. Brown, and many others we could name, who voted for the resolutions, are as true men as ever lived, Impressments are proper so:ne— times, and of necessity have to be resorted to, but we do think the pre sent mode might be muproved.— There are too many irresponsible of- ficers or agents ranniug over the country barrassing the people. do not consider it wrong to protest against the improper execution of laws, but we think it would be best to do so in such a way as not to en-- ender bad feeling or arouse the passions of the people. Charlotte Democrat. We agree with the Democrat, that the passage of resolations in the House of Commons protesting a— vainst the present system of impress- went, is no evidence that the House is, “rotten,” bat much to the con- trary. We look upon ii as the only good thing that has transpired in tuat body. We think it an act com- mendable, timely and extremely pertinent. The present mode of im- pressing has been productive of no iittle injury to the cause, the curren- cy, aud the people. It as lad a tendency to paralyze the arin of the government, curtaii the farming in— est, and promote extortion and fraud. All ite workings are bad, and should be remedied, if possible.

It appears from this report, that our loss in’ general officers is much yreater than in any other bat- tie of the war. No less than one Major and five Brigadier Gensrals were killed—one Major and five Brigadier Generals weré woinded! aud one brigadier General captured. A total loss of thirteen general offi- cers. ‘Truly,a dearly boug it victo- ry, it indeed, it may be claimed as ‘euch at such a cactifice cf trae and trality between the beiligerents in | tried leaders. ‘The most gerious loss of all was to suggest upon that sub-! the gallant ud able leader, Maj.

First, the unconatitationality of the measure ; second, itis a confession of weak- ness; third, the negro can better feed the army than fight with it; fourth, it would be a powerful stim- ulant to recruiting for the Yankees; fifth, we give up the whole questiyn when we adopt the measure. And the Macon Confederate gives this good advice tv Congress :— “ Make teameters, cooks and hospi- tal nurses of the negro, 60 far as they are needed for these purposes, and keep the remainder in rear to fight tumine, woilst oar white men at the front hold in ebeck an cnemy not tore formidable than the one that wouid overtake us ir the rear, should the negro be fvolisbly travsferred froin the corn to the battlefield.

The main body of the enemy’s large raiding column, was yesterday in the vicinity of Jarratt’s Depot, on the Petersburg and Weldon railroad thirty miles south of the city. Some fighting hed already occurred with their advance at this point, on Thurs- day, afternoon, but as far as known withont resalt. Yesterday, we learn, the action was renewed, and was in rogress at last accounts. We deem it imprudent tosay more at present, but look forward with extire confi-- dence to a glorious victory. Jf not to-day, we shall very svon hear of the destraction or disastrous defeat of this column. Our forces yesterday held Hick’s ford and Belfield, and these places may be conaidered comparatively safe. The Yankees, if they attempt to capture them, will find them much more difficult to take than Stony 4 Creek. The Yankees burned Sussex Cour. House on their route. " and papers of the county, we under- et hed been previously removed. They also stole all the horsés, cattle, poultry, &c., they could lay their hands apon, leaving citizeus on their route almost destitute. It was noticed on their passage through Sussex, that they had a con- siderable drove of cattle with them, some of which they brought out with them, and somy of shiek they stole from citizens. It was their policy, no doubt to add to it as much as possible, in order to secure them-, selves ayainst any emergency that | might occur. If the column should extend its journey to Weldon, then it would be desirable to collect us many provisions as possible. e@ During a skirmish that oecurred between Stony Creek and Jarratt’s, our cavalry captured thirty prison—- ers, who composed in part the force guarding the cattle. Lhe prisoners corroborate our statement made yes terday morning, that the enemy's force cousists of the Fifth corps and two divisieus of the Seeond corps, with a large force of cavalry and ar- tillery, all under command of Major | General Warren. They also state that the expedition is bound for Weldon. Warren may be a good General and a good fighter, but he is out on an ugly expeditios now, and hi may congratulate himself if he returns to his lines with even a re- spectable remnant of his present command. The enemr made some demonstra tion on Pickett’s left yesterday, which accomplished nothing. Our lines are safe there, here, aud son every thing will be quiet down the railroad. Taking advantage of the diver- sion down tbe railroad, the enemy appear to Le massing on our right for the purpose of making an ad vance movement, but the present state of the weather will, no donb: overrule all such intentions. Con siderable activity was aparent, and some skirmishing is reported tu have taken place on their extreme lett yesterday.— Pet. Fxpress, 10th. ’ THE POST OFFICE DEPART- MENT.

I A Righmond contemporary, who is in a position toknow whereof he writes, says thd march of our army iuto Tennessee was Hood's own eon- ception, approved by General Beau- regard and Genera! Johnston. No matter whose it was; we believe it to be a sound one. ome people who look only to the surface of things and judge them without any rela- tion they may bear to others, nay cry out against it asa folly anda hastily judged. Wait for results, and thew approve or condemn, ac- cording as those results may Justify. Of the campaign itself -the Knox- ville (Bristol) /tegister sums up the | facts briefly thus: Sherman had run a victorious ca reer to Atlauta, and was so strength. ,ening his communications with his base, that he had not only a pros- pect of securely holding the portion of Georgia overran, bat of subjugat ing the whole State, and thus de- -priving the Confederacy of its vast i} } | | resources.

But why should they be permitted to go and come at pleasure despite their pledges not to re- turn, and in violation of the orders uo- der which they went! Is Geo.
