or General Wool, by whom General Butler is succeeded, is a veteran officer of the regular army, and undoubtedly a man of courage and experience. But he must be now nearly seventy-five years of age, and it seemed to be the opinion of the late General Scott, that he is too infirm for active service. Possibly General Wool may entertain the same opinion of General Scott. But if he does not take warning by the fate of the latter, and shut himself up closely in his fortress, they will soon be brothwhom General Butler is succeeded, is a veteran officer of the regular army, and undoubtedly a man of courage and experience.

[for the Richmond Dispatch] Hener to whom Hener is Due. To the Editors of the Dispatch: Permit me to correct an error in a communication in your Friday's issue, over the signature "Palmetto." He says: "Two South Carolina Regiments, with Kemper's battery and a detachment of "The Black Horse," pursued the enemy for six miles, capturing 20 pieces of artillery and arms, and stores innumerable. "--I would in no way detract from that efficient and well known company, the "Black Horse," but I must claim for "the Albemarle Light Horse," led an by that gallant and dashing officer, Major Scott, the honor awarded to the Black Horse of that perilous and important action. The Albemarle Light Horse volunteered at the suggestion of Major Mill. The detachment of the Black Horse was the reinforcement brought up by Lieutenant Randolph. Albemarle

Regiment. This regiment was commanded by Lieut. Col. Echols in the battle of Manassas, Col. Gordon being detained by illness. It was one of the regiments which made the forced march from Winchester, and there were only about three hundred of the whole number engaged in the fight; and out of these gallant three hundred, over one hundred were killed and wounded — a mortality scarcely known in the history of war. The following is the list: Of the "Greenbrier Rifles," W. H. Callison. R. Scott, C. McShehon, and Michael Bowen, were killed. J. W. Gilkeson, W. H. Bouner, D. H. Bell, J. Callicon, J. W. A. Ford, G.

their hour of trail. Lincoln's war must carry sappiness to many domestic circles at the North, if all the domestic circles are as blood thirsty as the Administration. A responsible officer of the Mount Vernon Association emphatically denies Scott's assertion that "Mount Vernon, so recently course crated a new to the immortal Washington by the ladies of America, has already been over run by bands of rebels." Scott is a liar, as well as a traitor. The New York Journal of Commerce, anxiScott is a liar, as well as a traitor. The New York Journal of Commerce, anxious for peace, proposes an armistice for three months, and a Convention of all the States, to arrange matters. We don't think it can be done. The Grand Army marched toward Manassas with colors flying. On its return to Washington, instead of colors, the army was flying. Changing turn. "Forward to Richmond, let us fly" The Yankees shout, while blundering on, But Davis changed their battle cry To " Backward, boys, to Washington." In the recent retreat of the Federals

of chivalry and self-respect. It is positively fiendish. It must move the South to the most united, determined, and heroic resistance that the world has ever seen. My arms were not made to wear handcuffs; nor shall they, while God gives me strength to resist. I believe the thirty thousand handcuffs will be worth more than thirty thousand volunteers to the South. They must inspire the South with an everlasting loathing of the race that could plan for them a degradation so profound and galling — an injury that we cannot retaliate without sacrificing our character in the estimation of the civilized world. "Poor Scott! I learn he has been superseded Withered are his laurels. Yet he did not reach the lowest point of infamy to which he might have descended. He was, I learn, opposed to the use of the handcuffs. These new implements of war are the invention of the Republicans — Lincoln, and his saintly advisers — the great enemies of slavery.
