Shall I not trust in Him 1 “ Ah I but death ia almost certain,” you respond. Would you teach me to fear to die in defense of right, of truth and of justice ? Fighting for tha land of my birth, for the rights guaranteed to ua by ths Eternal God, for tha home I lore, 1 feel that death, in its moat horrid aad ghastly form, would bats no terrors for tue. ” But perhaps you will not be needed; wait until yon are called for again,” you reply. I hate heard this adeaneed often, and hare as repeatedly inquired, when will that be t Will it be neces sary only wheneur lend ia iureded and laid waste with fire and sword; our homes deso lated; our lored ones butchered—whan the Confederate Flag traits in the dust, onr army defeated and disorganised? Ko, father; tha first gun that boomed from Fort Sumter celled In thunder tones upon me to rally to tba stan dard of my country, and I burn to answer that call. But I feel that 1 oaunot go without your con sent. for yon are my father, and as such have the right to iny whether or not 1 shall go. I brg you, as you lore me, withhold not yonr oouseua If yon refuse, I must obey; but whsn it is done life will base lost all eharms f-*r me. oveu if the South should, by a rigor t os campaign, soon end the war by driving from our laud the Taodals of the Forth. Ub I oall me not baok. Rather Immure ma io some loathsome dungeon; let ma be the cringing Teasel of some heartless tyrant,- bind, rivet the clanking ehaina of an ignoble, perpetuated slarary upon me, rather than shower on my head tha blaaainga of a liberty bought witb the blood of others. Let me pour out the gushing fountain of my own heart to a. cure my own rights, aad I am content. I went no liberty but my own, aebisTad by my own eiertiona and purohased with my own blood. Call me not a blind enthusiast. Does love of Oouotry need a stimulant to call it Into aotioo ? Mutt Reason be dethroned that the fires of patriotism may bo aroused? No idle dream of fame, no elaTiah loan of moony, ac tuates ma All I ask ia to fight for my coun try. I want no remuneration. Giro me a few tattered rags to hide my nakedness, a emit to appease the gnawings of hunger, and Liberty, and I am happy. You want me to continue my studies. Do you suppose I can forget a bleeding country and devote my time and attention to the study of the law? Impossible! 1 sometimes taka up ioy books, determined to forget everything else, but soon my mind is wandering over the plains of tie Old Dominion, end in my Imag ination I hear tha thunder of oannon on our borders, and see the smoke of battle eaoend in dense columns towards Heaven, and books, home, self, are all forgotten, end I long for the hour of departure to arrive. I know it will wring my heart to bid you perhaps a laat farewell. Were I the only ona to regret my leaving, I could go without a sigh; but to sea my friends in tears Is too niuoh for me. Kvery day I think of that sad, sai hour, and my heart swells with griefi tears flow unrestrained. 1 ail down sometimes in my room, at the lone honr of tha night, whan all eyas save those of an All-seeing God are oloeed in sleep, sometimes in the depths of the forest beneath the overshadowing braneh- os of some monarch of the woods, and give vent to the long pent up feeliogsof my ach ing heart. Do not, however, suppose that this or anything else will keep me from going Tell mother to make what clothes she wants ma to have; wa expect to start ia two er three Now, father, 1st me eutrsat you, with all tha earnestness of my heart to give your con tent willingly, and a father’s parting Matting.

A week’s residence hers, however, would suffice lo re move all surprise that might be created by this statement. The people are remarkably alow in tbair movements, and are utter stran gers to energy and enterprise. This is true not only in regard to their private affairs, but of their railway officers, postmasters, tele graphio operators and express agantr. It re quires as much time for one of their railroads to move a regiment of 1,000 men as Mr. Cuy- ler (of tha Ceotral K. H I would ask to move 10,000. If thia inactivity whioh seem* to per vade all classes, were confined to their ordi nary vocations alone, it might be suffered to pass without remark; but unfortunately. It extende also to their military movements. Old Fogyism has his throne in this part of the morel vineyard of the F. F. V's, though be baa thousands of followers in other parts oftbe proud old Commonwealth. A gentle man was so irreverent a fen days ago as to assert ia the prssence of several officers, that Gov. Wise was ths only live man he had en countered in the Slate. This is a vile slender of oourae. But whatever may be said of the cavaliers themselves, ao lack of industry ran be charg ed against the saintly puritans who have emi- grstad from the Northern States and eettlad bars. They are quick-witted and sharp sight ed enough; but unfortunately, all of their ac tivity is put forth just at this tlma in behalf of the enamy. It was only a few deys ago that one of our aoouts, coming Is a sudden lure in the road, discovered a man perched upon the top of a distant bill, wkleh commanded a good view of the country for miles around. The moment the solitary watcher saw the ecout, he disap peared behind aome bnahee and took shelter io a cabin close by, on the further aide of the bill. Tba aeout galloped forward rapidly, and when be reached the house, enquired of the old woman who mat him at the gats (not tha door) where bar huabaod was. Her reply was that be had gone to hunt ib< raw (then about noon.) Her pronunciation of “ oow” satis fied the trooper that he was in tha presence of ona of your regular blue nose, witch-burn ing l'uritsns ; whereupon be Insisted upon searching the house. The old woman protes ted with the moat approved nasal twang, that there waa not a living thing in the house— not ao muoh as a dog; but the soldier waa still incradoloua, aud finally proceeded to search the oabio, when he discovered the old men up stairs under a bed, witb a telescope in bis pocket. The trooper describee him, when bs dragged him out,aa the meanest look ing creature ha ever saw, axeepl lha old wo man. Going to the hill-top, he saw where the old wretch had worn away the grass in his soll- tary vigils for the enemy; end sweeping the oonntry with the telescope, he discovered on a distant hill, partially concealed, a Federal sentinel, between whom and the old man well understood signals passed every day. And yet the trooper, who was a Virginian, came baok without tha old man, giving as an ex cuse, that he wee toe eld to do auy harm I— That Gen. Beauregard has a different opinion of these wooden-nutmeg patriots, may be in ferred from the foot that be has all the wells and springs within hit lines oloealy watched by sentinels, to guard against poison. It it but just to add, that there are some Northern men here, as in your own State, who are true to the Confederate cause. We have rumors here, just as you have at home, of frequent collisions In different quar ters with the enemy. Thus farthers hat keen nothing but a faw skirmishes between scout ing parties. People on both sides of the Po tomac have been looking forward to the 4th day of July, the appointed time for the re as sembling of Congress, as Ike turning point in our national affairs.

Yorktown, Va., July 4th. 1861. Editor* of the Southern Confederacy: I hav* concluded,on this memorable dey, to giro you such a description of this post and its forces, as the space of »n ordinary letter will permit. The graphic pen of the historian has ren dered ua necessary far me to say much of a place so f»moue in American history where the laat blowa for independence was struck. U is the hallowed spot wh«re the hellish prosecutor of tyrany—Cornwallis—surrendered his sword through bis aid, O'Hara, to Major General Lincoln, who was appointed by Gen. Washing ton to receive it, on the J9tb of October, 1781. The a*aociations>nd memorise that cluster around this consecrated spot, made sacred by the glorious triumph of patriots, who deemed nothing too good to be offered upon the altar of Liberty, ard nothing too dear to be sacrificed when thetr country called, causes us to bow our beads with veneration for ths apot, and in spires us with eourage and patriotic pride to transmit in its unsullied purity to posterity, that independence which was proclaimed eighty five jeers sgo, to day, by our forefath ers, “who knew their lights, end knowing, dared maintain." I believe, that could the illustrious dead, whose bones lie bleaching upon, or entombed within thia sacred plot of aartb, rise like Ph® uiz, from the ashes of ages, they would bid us “battle on bravely, and preserve that sacred legacy of freedom, for which we toiled, shed our blood, and died." Ton thousand cherished memories of this •pot, and others equally as dear, crowd upon my mind and struggle for uttsrance, as con templation brings to memory the heroic deeds of our fathers in deys agone. But 1 must de sist, or my intended letter will turn out to be an oration. The soldiery composing the forces of this post consists of the 2d and 6th Louisiana Reg- ments, of the former of which I am a mem ber; the 2d end 6th 27. C. Regiments, Colonel Winston’s Alabama, and Col. Colquit’e Georgia Regiment; a Virginia and a Louisiana Bat talion; tha New Orleans Zouaves; tha Howit- ters and other Artillery ; making in all, about teu thousand hardy sons, who are stationed on this, the south side, of York River. On the opposite beach, called Gloucester Point, are stationed about three thousand soldiers. The brows of this stream on both sides, are frown ing with heavy Artillery upon the bosom of tha waters below. Old Abe’s vessels were seen crossing the stream below about tha head of Chaaapeaka Bay, on yesterday, as if thay were busily en gaged in some movement, and now while 1 am panning these lines, I hear distant cannonad ing, some twenty miles below, roaring and muttering like distent thunder. Tha blockading steamer is anchored in sight about tan miles below us. Had I the trident of Neptune to wield at my will, i would give her a watery bad, where she could no more disturb the peece and quietude of a justly in dignaut people. Wa feel almost impregnable hers, having added to our naturally strongly fortified poet, many redouts and entrenchments. It would taka twenty-five or thirty thousand Hessians to dislodge us. Wa hava had only one engagement with the enemy this far, and than our Louisiana Regiment wes just too late to participate in the fight and share a portion of that brilliant victory, which decks tha brows of tha North Carolinians and Virginians with imperishable laurels. 1 allude to tha battle at Bethel Church, the re«ult of which is already wall known to every Southron. Wa marebed at tha rata of “doable quick," to essist those breve sons, who seat up tbair Macedonian oaJJ of -Corns ondhotpu*/' but we were treat fallen when w« learned that we were too late, by three quarters ef an kouri and we bad tba privilege ealy • I ataadiag among those whose swords were fiulbed with raeent vtotory, and or surveying tbs battle field thsn racking with carnage.
