our’pnokets, for no exchange can we
make of them, for the necessaries of
our mess-table.
There was a time when wo could
get coffee—coffee with sweeting, either
long or short—but alas 1 those days have
departed too, and such luxuries as cof
fee, sugar, beef and rice, constitute no
part of our rations now ; but in lieu
thereof, we have an article, to us hard
ly palatable, yclipt at my bacon; and
this, with dubious compounds of flour
and lard, meal and salt, are usually the
only dishes that grace our tin plate*
r.uw-a-days.
We spend an hour or two in strength
ening our fortifications, drilling reoruits
otc, ; and when our duties are over, we
devote our leisure as best we may. We
go exploring the vicinity of the Gap,
and find rare freaks of nature’s hand!
work scattered on every hand; here
we find a copious stream bursting * un
expectedly from the side of the moun
tain, forming boautiful cascades in its
course, as it precipitately seeks tho vale
below. Wo reach the summit of the
mountain, where beautiful and extend
ed vistas of varied landscape meet our
eve on every side; then we visit “the
pillar,” a huge column of rock fifty oi
sixty feet high, jutting from the very
sdge of the precipice, 1400 feet above
the camps in tile valley ; we next vis
it - the sulphur springs, and after sat
isfying our taste with potations of its
waters, wo conclude our {orambuin
tinns by. visiting a onvo in the moun
tain, recently discovered by Corponl
Blasingamc, where we profitably spend
a couple of hours, amidst the most gor
geous and weird scenery imaginable ;
to describe the delicate tracery of its
stalactites, the sombre grandeur of its
stalagmites, the mngnifioence of many
of its halls and galleries, would require
a more graphic pen than titine ; one
imagines that he is wandering amid the
fabled palaces of -oriental story. We
have already named several of its
chambers, ns "Big Red’s Room,” "Yei-
sor’s Patlor,” “Connor’s Alcove.”
‘Brown's Study,” oto. ; it has been ex

Kirby Smith honored it with a visit^thc

curiosities are to be found in the vicin

would have become, long ago, a cele
brated resort for summer tourists.
That quid mine individual, the “relia
bio gontlcman, ’ makes his appearanoe
in camps semi-occusionally, and gene
rally supplies us with a sufficient stock
of rumors to keep tho boys from stag
nation ; he brought us the intelligence,
the other day, that the enemy has)
been reinforcod at Cumberland Ford
by the addition of an Ohio, an Illinois
and a Minnesota Regiments, with six
Parrot guns; and that they intended
to make another attack upon this
point, as soon as Gen. J. C. Fremont
arrived ; ho having been rocontly as
signed the command of the “Mountain
Department,” embracing Western Vir
ginia, East Kentucky and East Ten
nessee.
An eleotion held on the 1st inst., to

Sunny.davs, with an occasional April

continued rainy soason ; ail nature in
dioates that we have entered the begin

the battle season of.1862. Who knows
what the end thereof may be ? Let us
.hope, and work and pray; and thus
aoting, we peed not fear the result.
my came in, the alarm was sounded j
and the notable* began to drag nn their
olothes, and to leave in double quiek.
Among these was Gen. L. Pope Walk
er, ex-Seoretary *f War, who resided
in Huntsville, Col. Coltart and others.
Capt. John Harvey .Hull, of the Irish
Volunteers, Sth Qa., being there, was
captured before ho dressed, and is
now a prisoner of wur—his company
had preoeded him to Corinth, and had
arrived safely. Pity he was not with
then, but he was not very well, and
had stopped that night at Huntsville
to rest.
On the train, besides numerous pas
sengers, were 60 or 70 soldiers return
ing from Corinth after the battle, fur
loughed on account of wounds, sick
ness, Ac.—all these were taken, put in
prison and kept two days without food.
One man among tho crowd said they
wore fed once.
The passengers wero huddled to
gether as prisoners, in a nasty depot,
and after two days were liberated,
some by taking the oath of allegi
ance, (unquulifiedlv,) others who wore
obstinate, were turned loose without
the oath, dhatno on the man who
would swallow such an oath.
The robbers were in possession of
the names of all tho prominent men
in the town, and went around »o pay
their respects, taking ail they could
find. Going to the house of a Colonel,
they asked for Capt-. C„ mistaking his
rank—“you put us rather low, said
the lady, we have had nothing here
below a Col.” “Will, ■ where is Co).
-?”said the Yankee. “Ha ie
not here now,” said the lady, “Where
has he gone?” “1 am not quite so.
green as you think.”
The sooundrels in Huntsville consist
of tho vilest Dutoh rabble, who com
menced plundering smoko houses.—
One of them broke down the door of a
widow woman’s meat house, and com
menced to help himself to bacon, her
*>n, a youth of 19, seized the villian's
gun and ran the bayonet through his
skull. He was nriested and placed in
the caro of four drunken Dutoh—he
bought a bottle of liquor and made
them drunk and escaped,
Z hey took an old man prisoner, who
wus a hard caso, said lie hud been a
secosh, was now. and always expected
to be. Offered to bet $1,600 we would
whip them at Corinth, and generally.
One vile scoundrel went into a house
where dwells a beautiful woman, and
used language thnt we oattnol repeat.
While l think of this, my blood boil*.
In fine, they are stealing every thing
they want, tobacco, corn, horses and
negroes, of course cotton. They brought
with them quite a number of blacks
in uniform—the vile Dutch mix with
their sable brethren on terms of per
fect equality.
They fired on the train captured,
and on the one that escaped—took
about 17 engines and immediately be
gan to run the read.
We heard of a calamity that befell
them near Decatur, whether true or
false, we give it as we got it. From
two eenllemen—one an eminent phy-
sioian, the other a prominent lawyer—
we learn that about- two regiments of
troops were sent on a train toward
Decatur, after a while the locomotive
returned with four men, who said as
they drew near Decatur, they fell into
* trap in crossing a trestle work, and
the .wh,ole body was destroyed or cap
tured. There i*. no doubt that the
four men said this, but after all, it
may bo a'falsehood.
As there i* now no communication
neither by mail nor telegraph with
Decatur, it may be true, and yet to us
be aa yet unverified.
There were on Monday, the 14th
of April, only 500 men in Huntsville,
and they seemed muoh alarmed.
rifled, lie adds; “The magazines are
well supplied with powder, and there
•re large quantities of shot, shell and
other munitions of war, and also great
quantities of provisions. Four steam
era afloat have fallen into our hands.
The Commodore says that the works
were “erected with the highest engi
neering skill,” were "of great strength,
and with their natural advantages
would hnvo been impregnable, if de
fended by men,” lie chooses to say,
“fighting for a better cause.” It may
be that Foote desired to magnify his
own achievement, by representing the
place as stronger than it really was;
but, then, did not our own nocounts
and the vain boasting of the Memphis
telegraphs, make the defences just ns
strong and itnpregnuble as the burnt-
foot commodore does ? They certainly
did ; and were it not that we have been
bo often surprised by the surrender of
forts ar.d fortifications that were boast
ed of as impregnable, we should, in
deed, be amazed at the surrender of
the famed Island No. 10, whioh has
furnished so many paragraphs, fer tele-
graphing.
Fort Pillow.
Fort Pillow, says a Memphis ex
change, eighty-five miles above Mem
phis, is on? of the strongest points on
the river. It is on the Tennessee ride.
It is fortified hy 20 gunk, six rifled guns
32-pounders, thirtoen smooth bore.same
size, ar.d one U-inoh celumbiad. The
ohuunel of the river is within one hun
dred yards of the guns, and no boats
of however light a draft can pass, at
a greater distance.
A deep ditch, rampart and fine mili
tary road oxtend from the river front
on 'he right to the river front on the
left, in the form of a horse shoe, and
on tho brow of the highost hills, fully
mounted with heavy guns at the salient
angles, some idea of the extent ot
whioh may be formed by the fact that
it would require 20,000 men formed in
lino of battle to cover its cirouit. In
the Tear, outside the ramparts, the
woods are not only out, but stripped of
ail limbs for over 500 yards—and is fur
tliar defended by nn almost impassable
morass, which stretches inward and up'
ward of the river as far as tho eye can
reach,
Prater rou tub Law,—The follow-
form of prayer lias been issued by Rt,
Rev, Stephen Elliott, Episcopal Bishop
of Georgia, to be used in all the churoh-
es of itis diocese:
O, Eternal Lord God, who alone
spreadest out the Heavens and rulost
the raging of the sea; who hast- com
passed the waters with bounds, until
day and night come to an end. Be
pleased to receive into Thj Almighty
and most gracious protection, the per
sons of Toy servants, the officers and
crews ot our fleet, and especially of the
Virginia, now engaged in active service.
Preserve them from the dangers of the
sea, and from the violence of the ene
my; give them victory in their various
conflicts, that they may be a safeguard
unto- the Confederate States of Ameri
ca, and a security for such us pass on
the seas upon their lawful occasions ;
may they return in safety to enjoy the
blessings of the land with-tho fruits of
their labor, and with a thankful re
membrance of Thy meroies, to praise
and glorify Thy holy name, through
Jesus Christ our Lord—Amen.
as foolish and self-evident lies as the
Yankees. Everybody knows that “the
whole nrtny of the enemy will certain
ly bo killed or ouptured, means that
the Confederates will be defeated the
next day. But Why ohooso a prepos
terous falsehood to convey disagreea
ble truth? Why not soy "the advan
tage is so far on our side, but the bat
tie is not decided yet; the enemy’s
reinforcements may come up?” Ur,
when stories of passengers by the cars
are given, why not sift them, rejecting
riditily oil that savors of the least
doubt, and reporting only what is well
authenticated ? Why raise false hopes
and false joy in the people?
Another piece of stupidity on the
f iart of our newspapers und telegraph-
c men is the inordinate puffing of thic
or that General. Endless ndloule has
been heaped upon Mr. Davis by com
paring him to Washington; and we
nave been pained to see Mr. Breckin
ridge victimized by dispatches from
the battle-field of Shiloh. Hindtnun
bad his leg shotofl', but that is a small
matter when we consider that Break-
iuridgo “won immortal honor’’ by hav
ing every rag of “his clothes shot
away,” his “horse riddled,” and even
“his hat swept down”-^notnithstand-
ing whioh, -the frightful deprivation of
his hat,) he fought undismuyed. We
mean no disrespect to Breckinridge;
quite the contrury. We are only angry
that his friends should porrait the re
porters to make him o.ut a jaokusaical er *
figure iu history.
Unless wo can go back to tlie old
habit of telling the truth and' using
moderate language, quit “shaking Sa
vannah with an .earthquake'’ ftom a
fort that surrendered utter four men
wero wounded, raid cease to imitate
the bombastical-aud mendacious lingo
of the Yankees, tne Mexicans and the
Chinese, we had better shut up the
telegrapliio offices and suppress the
newspapers. Let us show to the world
that wo ure Southerners—lovers of the
truth, and of plain, honest speech, or
eise let ut go back to tho Yankees we
so muoh resemble. The country is
sick of the ineffable nonsense of the
knaves and fools who pretend to re
port our battles.—Richmond Whig.

plates said to have been invented and
worn by the Cowardly Yankees in time

thero is such a thing, and that they

Reports of Battles.—Why the pe
porting of a battle by telegraph, by
Utter, or by word of mouth, should
depiive a man of every partjoie of
common sense, or every spark of prin
ciple, we know not. But the fact is
so. A battle is no sooner begun than
we are notified by a “rdlidble" dis
patch that the “whole army of the
enemy will ’certainly be killed or
captured.” This we heard in regard
to Donelson. "Elk Horn, Shiloh, and
nearly every other battle whioh -has
been fought, It has been olaimed-that
the people of the North are liars, and
that we of the South are truthful.—

Another of the M illcr Rifles has ful
len. Another of the terrible effects of
this unholy war has been witnessed, in
the death of Mr. John U. Davis. He
died at the residence of his father,
Judge Davis, of Vann's Vulley, on the
morning of the 15th inst., in the 23d
ynnr of his his age.
The deceased was among the original
volunteers of Captain Towers’ Compa
ny, and immediately repaired to Vir
ginia. He was not in the battle of
Manassas, having the moasles at the
time. Under the severities of camp life,
he contracted the disease which, termi
nated his life. With this disease lie
lingered for some three months, suffer
ing muoh, and being greatly reduced
in body, and finally died a martyr to
our country’s cause.
John Davis was a young man of re
Karkable good nature and amiable dis
position. He was highly esteemed by
all his acquaintances, and especially
was he beloved by his comrades in
camp. Obedienoe to his parents,
courteous respeot’for ago and merit, in
dustry, energy and exemplary conduct
were marked characteristics of his life.
He was a member of the Baptist
Church, and honored his profession by
an upright life. He leaves a large oir
ole of relatives and friends to mourn
his loss.
