Lester, Esq. being present by invitation, r sp mde 1 in behalf ot the Guard* in a speech of about thirty minutes, in vvliicli he referred to the fact, that the banner was not oidy the gift o‘ worn in, but was the gift o c one whose native State, constituted the van guar 1 of the secession column, and wlmse gallant citizen*, Ikmlie I the first pow der in the cmi"e of Southern honor and South ern independence. Mr. Lester pvo:mnn<’ed a well deserved < nloginm up >n the noble women ot the South, who from the very beginning of the contest in vvhiih we are engage J, have ex’iau'-ted eve r y resource of beatify, 1 iveli.iess, in lustry and patriotism, to cheer ami encourage the South ern soldier, as lie hies to toe field, where truth and honor are to be vindicated, and ; vic'orv and freedom are to be won. Mr. I .ester’s addres* was desired for pub- I lication, but his engagements deprived him of time to commit it to paper.

Letter from Dr. Jolm W. Lewis. Oakland, Cass County. Ga., 1 May 21, 18C1. ( Mr. E. B. Walker : Dear Sir: I had the pleasure of reaching h me on yesterday, after having traveled by the way of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Knoxville, Bristol, Lynchburg, Richmond, Petersburg, Columbia, and Augusta, and thence Irmie.— I write this to you with the view of its pub lication, mainly to remove all apprehension from the public mind here, in relation to the present and future supplies of food. Not withstanding the partial blockade of the Mis sissippi River, and its great tributaries, there is plenty of food, both of bread and of meat, for some time yet to come, on this side of the blockade. These supplies, under the flatter ing prospect of an abundant crop of wheat, oats and grass, now growing and maturing, will cause present supplies to come forward more freely. My trip embraced a distance of about 1400 miles, and without any excep tion along the whole way, there is growing —and in many places nearly matured —the finest crop of wheat I have ever seen, both as to quality and amount. The oat crop is also promising: and the grass crop, both in Ten nessee and Western Virginia, is both abun dandand of unusual luxuriance. Virgi 4a will make an excess of wheat for home use. East Tennessee will make a large excess lor ship ment to Georgia. A.dded to all this, there is planted a great breadth of corn ; Virginia pl inting but little tobacco ; North and South Carolina but comparatively little cotton, and best of all, fewer /T’ po T by fiir than usual. Men, women and children are at work, and loafers, (the most useless part of the human family,) are for leant of company. All the prospects in nature, through this great extent of country are bright and prosperous. In strange contrast to all this brightness and sweetness in nature, is seen hovering over all, the dark and portent"US cloud of war. The flower of the young monos N rth and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Ala bama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Texas, Arkau sas, Tennes-ee, and some from Kentucky, are seen flockmg by the th' nsan 1, and ten thousand to the Confederate baimer, planted on the eastern border of Virginia, ” the mother of States and Statesmen,” which is, i and which icill be the “ Tiiermopykc’’ of the I now world. There the great battle will be fimght, there the 'ext of peace will be an n lunced, ■' ’ ' God rrant it may be the latter. At any rate, oh the banks of the I’ itomac, th. it fanaticism, which has overvvhe'med in ruin, the finest fabric of Constitutional government which the world ever bad- will waste its last ware. I in Hirn though—l weep to think, that this may not I b?, until thousands of the flower of our young men shall have been torn as targets by the bullets of a mercenary foe. A foe too, whom we have never harmed, and in regard to wlm m, we only request to lice separate. Per contra to these mournful thoughts, 1 heard some amusing things in regard to the troops. For instance, one of th? Georgia *'b vs” was calle I out at Itiehinond 6>r “a speech;” in kin SolJieicii'il.e-. p’ i nly in lieu'.ing that they had not ab.vavs been ‘‘dofled’’ at, bed time, his ex :di um was ;:L ut to to this effect: ; •’ Fellow-citizens, we tire in a g i-’d cause.— I Jeff.

The facts, as Stated,are as follows : Lord Lyons received from the British Consul at Charleston a state ment of the circumstances under which the British vessels mentioned in your paper were lately prohibited from entering Charleston and ordered off, in enforcement of the paper blockade of the Southern ports by the Uni ted States, i.ord Lyons demanded that or ders should be immediately issued by the Gov ernment ol the United States rescinding the paper blockade, so far as Great Britain was concerned, and that the Government of Great Britain would hold the Government ofthe Uni ted States responsible for alb losses the Brit ish vessels lately ordered off shall sustain in consequence of the interruption of the voy ages. On this an angry discussion took place, Lord Lyons insisted that, if the Southern states were still a part of the United States British, vessels, by the treaties with Groat B, itain.had a right to enter Southern ports and if they were not, then that a paper block ade was contrary to the laws of nations.— Mont Adv' Short S<-rjn:>:i.

Ohl Kentucky covered his s x bullet holes with a hall dollar, and Old Virginia was obliged to get a small tm cup to cover his; buthe claimed rhe victory, on the ground that hisel bullets were twice the size of his adversary's, i wenty-eight men shot on the same dav, at three hundred yards, at a log the size of a man, and twenty-two bullets pierced it. These shots were all off hand. There is a company here who practice nt double quick time—a full trot—and they seem to donearly as well as those who fire standing. They arc terrible fellows, and seem to have a most insatiable desire to fight.” Richmond, May 27.—The report which prevail here that a number ofthe Lincolnitea were killed on Sunday in an attack on Hamp ton, is authoritatively denied.
