will commence the next campaign with some advantages of position which they did not have in the beginning of 1863. It will be incumbent upon us during the current year to call out all our resources and put forth all our strength. The Confederate Congress, which was now in session at Richmond, was composed of many able statesmen. In the Senate were Clay and Jemison from Alabama; Johnson and Mitchell from Arkansas; Baker and Maxwell from Florida; Hill and Johnson from Georgia; Burnett and Sims from Kentucky; Symmes and Sparrow from Louisiana; Brown and Phelan from Mississippi; Clark from Missouri; Davis from North Carolina; Barnwell and Orr from South Carolina; Haynes and Henry from Tennessee; Oldham and Wigfall from Texas; Hunter and Caperton from Virginia. In the House the members were distinguished for conservatism and ability, among whom were Curry, Clopton, and Pugh, Garland, Trippe, Ewing, Breckinridge, Conrad, Davis, Barksdale, Vest, Ashe, Boyce, Gentry, Vaughn, Bocock, and

On March 7th he followed McCulloch until he met Colonel Sims' Texas regiment countermarching, and was ordered to countermarch also. He had marched about a mile, when he came upon a battery of the enemy, supported by canemy opened fire upon us in the woods where we were; the fence was thrown down, and the Indians (Watie's regiment on foot, and Drew's on horseback), with a part of Sims' regiment, gallantly led by Colonel Quayle, charged with loud yells, routed the cavalry, took the battery, pursued and fired upon the enemy retreating through the

of Georgia; Sergeant Routh of Tallahassee; Private Tillinghast, etc., would not be compensated for, in my opinion, by the total annihilation of Billy Wilson and his whole band of thieves and cut-throats. The Florida regiment had only 100 men in the expedition, out of 1,060, and lost 6 killed, 8 wounded, and 12 prisoners, as follows: Killed: Captain Bradford, Sergeant Routh, Privates Tillinghast, Hale, Thompson of Apalachicola, and Smith. Wounded: Corporal Lanier, Privates Echols, McCorkle, Sims, William Denham, Hicks, Sharrit and O'Neal (Peter, of Pensacola). These are doing well and will recover. Prisoners: Hale and Bond, Company A; Mahoney and Nichols, Company B; Bev. Parker and Finley, Company E; Holliman, Godlie, John Jarvis, M. Mosely, and Batterson, of Company F; also Lieutenant Farley, Company E. I deeply regret that such men as Lieutenants Farley, Parker and Finley should have fallen into the enemy's hands. However, they write to us that they are well treated, but destiny

annoyed by the book, on account of many of the ludicrous scenes therein detailed, supposing them to be presented with a coloring which might bring his veracity somewhat into question. We know not whether this was so or not; but we do know that Mr. Sims, in his life of Marion--a far more pretentious work — has told us nothing that Weems had not told before, and has added nothing to what Weems had said.--Every incident, every anecdote, that had been recorded by Weems, is faithfully transcribed by Sims, and, apparently, he did not think it worth while to look beyond his volume, so fully had he covered the entire ground. We recollect having seen Mr. Weems when we were a very small boy. It was a memorable day with us--one which we shall never forget. It was the day of an election, when elections used to be held on the April County Court days, long before the Convention of 1829-'30 fixed all upon the same day. It was the first election we had ever been at, and we had been brought up

Railroad accident. --On Wednesday last, as the freight train of the Central Railroad Company was passing between the University of Virginia and Charlottesville, a steer, whose net weight was about 1,400 pounds, broke through the floor of one of the cars, and was killed; the passenger car attached was thrown from the track and broken to pieces, the captain of the train, Mr. Sims, and the owner of a number of sheep from Augusta, were also injured. Had the car been constructed of the right material, the accident would not have occurred.

ssing him hard with a view of capturing him, when he wheeled and fired. This is not substantiated. At any rate, the shot was fired after the engagement was over. The assassin was an assistant quartermaster in the Confederate force. His name is Sims, and he hails from Chesterfield, across the river from Richmond. He was immediately seized, and it is a great wonder that they didn't make mincemeat of him instanter. The pistol with which he shot Colonel Kelly is an old-fashioned, old Virginia y left behind some forty horses, all their provisions, their baggage and camp equipage, and a good many handsome uniforms, together with some 440 stand of arms, all of which fell into the hands of the victors.--Several prisoners were taken besides Sims — among them D. M. Auvil, Prosecuting Attorney, and Col. Willey. Capt. Robinson, of the Logan Guards, had the honor of making the capture. Col. Willey's commission from the Confederate authorities, with some interesting correspondence, was found

f Tennessee, arose in an excited manner to address the meeting. He was in favor of the students returning at once to their homes. The contingency alluded to by Dr. Sims had arisen. South Carolina had seceded. [Loud cheers.] He would read a telegraphic dispatch which had just been received. The dispatch was as follows: Riote was called upon each resolution. A voice from the rear part of the meeting called out — Who constituted the committee that drew up the resolutions? Dr. Sims suggested that the resolutions should be amended by introducing the words, "that the students should go home as each State seceded." This was received with tive States, and if need be, we can act the part of defenders of our homes, as well as render assistance to those who fall wounded. A Voice--"Get out." Dr. Sims moved as an amendment to the first and second resolutions: Resolved, That we consider it our bounden duty to return to our homes as soon as any of the South
