in the presence of the enemy, a calm and dignified fidelity and firmness which their very adversaries must have secretly respected. What a contrast to the conduct of some localities, in which the oath of allegiance has been taken — with a mental reservation probably — by a few persons of whom we expected better things. If the people of Winchester had thus faltered in their manhood and honor, would they not have blushed to behold again the Confederate banner, and to look the honest hero. Jackson, in the face? A town, a State, or a county may fall into the occupation of an enemy, and fall again and again, and yet the day of its ultimate and permanent deliverance be seen. Taking a city and keeping it are two different things. New York was in the occupancy of the British for six years of the Revolution. But its inhabitants maintained their loyalty to the Republic unshaken to the end. We can scarcely expect that Southern men will be less true to their country, less ready to end

"Hurrah for Jackson." The "hurrah for Jackson," once so familiar to this country, has been revived with an enthusiasm that bids fair to equal the uproar which the name of "Old Hickory" used to rouse. We are told that in his own camp, he cannot make his appearance without being followed by that stirring hurrah from one end of the line to the other. What a lion they would make of him, if he were a Yankee hero! By this time the printshops would be full of his likenesses, and Harper would Jackson," once so familiar to this country, has been revived with an enthusiasm that bids fair to equal the uproar which the name of "Old Hickory" used to rouse.

What a lion they would make of him, if he were a Yankee hero! By this time the printshops would be full of his likenesses, and Harper would have a minute account of his origin, history, appearance and habits. We must confess that we feel some curiosity ourselves to know something more of the life and appearance of "Old Stone- wall," of whom all we know at present is that he was formerly a professor in the Virginia Military Institute, is a little over the madium height, spare and thin, with dark hair and beard cut short, and has an accentric habit of fighting Yankees when he meets them.

d those who battled for it. It is understood that Col. James L. Kemper, of the 7th Virginia regiment, succeeds Gen. A. P. Hill as General of the First Brigade Virginia volunteers, Gen. Hill having been promoted to the post of Major General. The Second Brigade, Gen. Wm. Mahone, passed through the streets on yesterday, en route for camp below the city. This fine brigade is composed of the 12th and 41st Virginia, the 3d Alabama, and three other regiments, two of which are now with Gen. Jackson, and the third near Petersburg. The 12th Virginia consists of the old Grays, of Richmond, six companies from Petersburg, and three companies from the interior. Their appearance, notwithstanding the heavy marches to which they have been recently subjected from Norfolk hence, was decidedly imposing and they won the universal praise of the people for their unexceptionable discipline as they marched in solid column for their future quarters. It is understood that a Naval General Court

The first response. --We are glad to record as the first response to the call of reinforcements for Jackson the company of Chesapeake Artillery, Capt. W. D. Brown, who, after full reorganization leaves in a few days to join the victorious army of the Potomac. The command numbers nearly an hundred men, with four rifled pieces, and being composed of Marylanders exclusively, the object in attaching themselves to the command is obvious. "Maryland, My Maryland" is to be changed to "Home Again."

From Jackson. It was currently reported in town yesterday that Jackson had crossed the Potomac and was now in Williamsport, Maryland. Although we could not learn that official dispatches had been received to that effect, still the informationJackson had crossed the Potomac and was now in Williamsport, Maryland. Although we could not learn that official dispatches had been received to that effect, still the information was very generally believed and we deem it more probable than otherwise. Williamsport is on the river above Harper's Ferry, six miles from Hagerstown and on the Fredericktown turnpike. This rapid advance of Jackson has caused great consternation Jackson has caused great consternation in Washington and is said to have made the diversion in McClellan's plans spoken or else where. We hope to be able to chronicle Jackson's entrance into Fredericktown, in which place he will meet with powerful additions to his army. We are told ready to fight with thes, sticks or brickbats. It must be a happy thought that deliverance is so nigh. The fact that Jackson is the first man to lead an army into Maryland will stamp him as the here of the war, and will win for him the resting g

Jackson's achievements in the Valley. The result, so far as known, of "Stonewall" Jackson's recent achievements, has been the quantization of an army of 12,000 of 15,000 men, the capture of an amount of provisions, ordnance stores, small arms, horses, wagons, camp equipage, almost incredible, and last though not least, the possession of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, the main artery which connects the Yankee capital with the West. It was currently reported yesterday that Jackson had crossed the Potomac at Williamsport, and was marching his army into Maryland.

ive up the place against the will and command of their Chief. "Go," said he, "tell the remains of our ancestors to spring up from their graves and to follow us into a new land" They remained, fought, and resisted. Otempora, O Mores How long shall these things be tolerated? How long shall our Southern ladies be allowed to remain under the tyrannical yoke of our Northern oppressors, subject to the despotism of such bipeds as Butler and consorts, remains to our Generals to decide. Jackson is already in the field, "Onward ! onward !" is the motto which come to us from Corinth; let, then, the heroes of Manassas, together with their brethren of Bethel, row righting on the banks of the Chickahominy, respond to the call, and so certain as there is a just God, who presides over the destinies of nations, victory shall crown our efforts, and Yankeeism shall soon be swept from our southwestern homes. Above all, do not lose eight of these memorable words of our immortal Patrick H
