One incident deserves a record for imitation. A private in Carleton's battery (Sayre by name, I think,) seeing an enemy's shell with the fuse burning fall near his gun, pushed it off, to explode at the bottom of the redoubt, and thus doubtless saved the lives of several. Manly's North Carolina, and McCarthy's Richmond Howitzers, also did noble service in the various battles on our left. Tardy justice I see has been done to the important labors of the cavalry between Spotsylvania Comt House and the Catherine Furnace, driving back the enemy's cavalry, and thus enabling Jackson to march undiscovered to the rear.

If all Yankees could see in their wounded, neglected and forsaken, like those at Chancellorsville, and crouching from the fires, with slow and inevitable march, approaching to consume them — a doom as certain and universal as it is deserved — they would be driven in affright to their own dens, and never more "cross over" to receive the jleft us this also to show — that our artillery is equal or superior to the Yankees. Stuart, succeeding Jackson, fought our guns at shorter range, I hear, than ever before, and hence the terrible execution.

True, his fall has made his battle scarred and outraged mother, Virginia, the Niobe of States. True, our grief at his loss and reverence for his dauntless heroism and victorious valor strikes eulogy dumb, and makes attempted praises almost disrespect to his memory. True, the Confederacy sorrowfully asks, as South Carolina did when Calhoun died, "who shall seize from the dead hand the standard of the South? " Yet his memory and example live for us to avenge and emulate. Lee and a score of great Generals are left us, and, above all, a God of truth and justice reigns. Woe to the foe when Jackson's followers again shall meet them. Jackson, at Alexandria, smiting the insulting despoiler of his household, struck the key-note of just retribution upon all invaders.

If every town in the Confederacy had done and given, not to say suffered, what Fredericksburg has, there would be no lack of men here or in the Southwest. Let them come forward, or be compelled to come. It is time each man should ask how he can aid the cause. It is not necessary to wear buttons or draw pay in order to render "service." The Confederacy demands the best service possible from each and all of her sons.
