Thhr Destruction of the “Virginia”-
Com. Tattnall Acquitted,
The case of Captain Josiah Tnttndll
late comm(\iii'ei/of the steamer Virgin
ia, which lias occupied the attention of
the Naval Court of Inquiry in Rich
mond for some time past, has At length
been disposed of, in a manner gratify
ing to that officer and his friends, what
ever may bo the difference of public
opinion oonoetning the matter. The
first charge was the “Culpable destruc
tion of an armetl steamer of the Con
federate States Navy," the second
“Negligence,” and the third “Improvi
dent Conduct.” The Court having ma
turely considered the evidence adduced
came to the conclusion that the several
specifications were not proved, and
found that the accused was “notguilivh
of either of the charges. We appehd
an extract frem the proceedings in the
case:
The Court do further find that the
accused had, while in command of tho
Virginia, and previous to tho evacua
tion of Norfolk, throws down the gage
of battle to the enemy’s fleet in Ilamp
ton Roods, and that the enemy had de
clined to take it up—that tlie day be
fore Norfolk was evacuated a consulta
tion at the instance of the Secretary of
Navy was held by a joint commission of
Navy and army Officers, as to the best
disposition to bo made of the ship—that
the accused was in favor of passing
Fortress Monroe, and taking the ship
into York River, or of running down
before Savannah with her—that in this
ho was overruled b.v the council, who
advised that she should remain on this
side of Fortress Monroe, for tho protec
tion of Norfolk and Richmond, and
that in accordance with this adviao, he
proceeded to regulate her movements—
that after the evaountion of Norfolk,
W/stover, oil James River, became the
most suitable, position for her to occu
py—that while in the act of lightening
her for the purpose of taking her up to
that point, the pilots for the first time
declared their inability to take her up,
Oven though her draft should be reduc
ed to its minimum of eight^n feet—
that by the abandonment of our forts
below Westover, both batiks of the
James riVer below that point were vir
tually given up to tho enemy—that tho
ship being thus cut off from Norfolk
and Richmond, was deprived*of all
sources of supply, save those of the
most precarious and uncertain charac
ter—that her store ot provisions would
not last for more thau three weeks—
that when lightened she was made vul-
uerable to the attacks of the enemy,
and that after having been lightened
there wero no avnilablo means of bring
ing her down to her propor draft and
fighting trim, and that she had but two
small boats, eaoli capable of landing
not more than fifteen or eighteen
men tit a time, oven when in smooth
water.
Such being the facts and circumstan
ces under the influence of which the
Virginia found-herself after the evacua
tion of Norfolk, it was, in the opinion
of the Court, only necessr-rv for tne en
emy to continue to refuse battle, ts he
had done since it was first offered by
Captniu Tattnall, early in April, an
thenceforward to keep a striot watch
about the Virginia, in order, that wh«n
her provisions wore exhausted, to
make her his prize and the crew his
prisoners.
Being thus situated, tho only alter
native, in the opinion of the Court,
was to abandon and burn the ship,
then and there, which, -in tho judg
ment of -the Court, was deliberately
and wisely done, by order of the accus
ed.
Wherefore, the Court doaward to the
said Capt. Josiah Tattnall an honorable
acquittal.
Morgan's Return.
A portion of Col.-John H. Morgan’s
command, consisting of the 1st Georgia
Rangers and the Texas Rangers return
ed to to this city yesterday. From Cap
tain M. C. Blanchard, Quartermaster of
the 1st Georgia'Cavalry, wo have obtain
ed somo interesting particulars of the
expedition.
0*1. Morgan has returned in safety to
Tennessee, after one of the most daring
and successful raids into the enemy’s
country, recorded in the annals of war.
Ho left here with about 1,000 brave
spirits, a pdrtio'n of whom were armed,
pedetrated 250 miles into a country in
full possession of tho Federals—this
distance we give ns the direct line, of
cotMpke the aotual distance traveled
greatly exceeded that.
He captured a dozen towns and cities
destroyed Federal military stores, and
other property, and railroad bridges, in
all amounting to eight er ten millions
of dollars. Ho took perhaps over a
thousand prisoners, all of whom he
paroled. At Cynthiana, ho encoun
tered a Federal force eoual to bis own,
who, afier a few hours light, surrender
ed.
Where he is at present, and what will
-bo his next daring move, is of course,
not a matter to be divulged, but it is
certain that he and his, brave rangers
cannot remain inactive,—KnoxvilU Meg-

Gin. Beauregard.—The Richmond
Enquirer says:
As many idle storieB have been going
the round of the papers, relative to the
whereabouts of Gen. Beauregard, and
the. cause of his absence from tho army
we think it well to state that ha is at
present with his family at Bladon
Springs, South Alabama. It will be re
collected, that Genet al Beauregard took
the field,in the Southwest, when- oiir
-fortunes in that quarter were at their
darkest period. In the active campaign
which ensued, and in the perteot or
ganization of the immense army at Cor
inth-,-he performed labors which seri
ously affected his health, and rendered
ti period of rest and recuperation ab-
solutelj necessary. That he might
•enjoy th* much i.eeded-rest, ho procur
ed a relief from his command for a few
- mouths.
We are pleased to add, that the Gen
eral’s health is rapidly improving, and
that he will very soon bo able to return
to his post.

The War n Blessing. ,
It is often seen that, by tho provi
dence of God,-the greatest good is
drawn from apparently the. greatest
evil; and so it may be with the war
now raging in the Cou federate - States.
After the formation of the Confeder
ate Government, it was clear that it
was in the hands of Reoonstruotiouisls.
How this came to pass, and why the
men had been mainly instrumental
in bringjng about the Seutherh Confed
eracy, were not placed in power to
complete its independence, we will
not now inquire j but of one thing we
think there can be no doubt—if no
war had taken place, tho Northern
States could easily, by concessions which
would in no way have impaired the ad
vantages of the old Union to them,
have reconciled themselves- to the Con
federate States, and reformed tho
Union.
Nowit may have been the purpose
of God to separato forever the people
of the Southern from tho people of the
Northern States; and he may have
seep that, to accomplish this ond, the
war in which we are engaged was abso
lutely nocessary. By no other moans
could the people of the Southern States
become acquainted with the character
istics of tho people of the Northern
States. By no otnor moans could that
antagonism and alienation bo produced
whion was absolutely necessary to pre
vent a reunion between them; and
by no other means could tho resources
of the Southern States bo developed,
whereby the respect of other nations
would be inspired and our future peace
be secured. If these things are so,
what au inestimable blessing, although
draped in sorrow nncf suffering, will
this war be to the Confederate States 1
And there is another vast benefit that
this war will, in all likelihood, pro-
duco. The world at large has been in
total ignorance of the institution of
African slavery in our midst. Tho
Northern States did not belipvo that
we would dare go to with them with
four millions of slaves on our soiL—
They looked upon the institution ns an
element of such weakness, that they
had only to call it forth into hostility,
to paraliso or destroy us. Tho war hn*
shown the true nature of our system of
slavery. It is an olement of strength
instead of weakness. Whilst tho citi
zen goes out to fight, the slave remains
at home to till the soil, In spito of all
the allurements and instigations of our
enemies, no insurrections of slaves in
tho South have taken place. They
luivo not imitated the brutal example
of tho Yankee Boldiery, compared with
whom t hey have proved themselves to
be a civilized people. But for this war,
the truo relation of the slave to the
master in the South would never have
been known, and our strength as a peo
ple would never have been appreciated.
This war may also be necessary to
.unite tlio Confederate States together.
There is very little association or affini
ty between the people of South Caroli
na and Texas, or those of Virginia ond
Alabama. Commerce and intercourse
are far more inlimato between the Slave
States on the Lower Mississippi and the
Free States on tho Upper Mississippi
and its tributaries, than between any
portions of tho Confederate States, To
break this naturnl affinity, and to pro
duce a stronger affection for States
without it, war was necessary. To es
tablish the Union of the Confederate
States, it must bo cemented with our
blood; and by blood shed by those
who were most intimately associated
with us by tho ties’ of interest,' inter
course, and commerce. Repulsion ns
well as union, Was necessary to the
stability of our Confederacy. War has
produced it. Indiana, Illinois and
Ohio have appeared on tho soil of Ten
nessec, Louisiana and Mississippi, to
murdsr their peoplo into subjection.
All * sympathy between the people of
these States is supplanted by alienation
—interest by hate ; and a reconstruc
tion of a union between them, we trust,
is extinguished forever. Providence
thus baffles the schemes of politicians,
and carries out His gracious gnd bene
ficient purposes.—CAas. Mercury.

is more nearly salaratus than soda, and
is a very.good substitute for that. The
use of all these drugs in the prepara
tion of bread is generally condemned
by the medical faculty, but as tho peo
ple will continue to use them, and ns
tho so-called “soda” is a very impure
article, as prepared by the soda-loviug
housewives, it would probably be ren
dering a service to them and to bread
eators generally, to give a simple meth
od of making a comparatively pure ar
ticle. It is more valuable in view of the
scarcity and high prices of soda in our
drug stores:
After making a strong ive from ashes
and boiling down to dryness, end burn
ing till white, tuke tho residue and add
its own weight of cold water, And sot it
in a coo] plaoe for several days, say a
week, stirring frequently ; then strain
through a fino cloth, and boil down
again to dryness, stirring frequently ;
and finally cork up tho powdor so ob
tained in a bottle. These operations
should all be conducted in an iron ves
sel not in glass or stoneware.
THIS RAPPAHANNOCK LINES.
Tho Central cars came*through with
out interruption yesterday, and we
could hear nothing to confirm the ro-
port on Sunday, that the Yankees were
threatening another demonstration up
on tho road. Passengers bring a rd,
port that' a skirmish took place -on Sat
urday net far from Gorctonsville, and
that the enemy hastily retired after a
brief show of resistance. Tlio indica
tions are that a general battle will take
place in that direction before many
clays, as it is now well ascertained that
reinforcements are being sent to Pope,
the Federal commander, and' it is be
lieved that the abolition Government
is withdrawing troops from McClelland
army for that purpose.
We learn from Staunton that twenty
four prisoners were sent to that place
on Sunday by General Robertson, and
that forty six more were expected yes
terday. These men will probably be
transferred to Lynchburg, to remain
until the general exohange of prison
ers is effected.—Richmond Dispatch, 29.
JfiT*The Richmond correspondent of
the Charloslun Mercury, says:
Magru dor's caso is a hard one, and
not very clear. Common report says he
was certainly under the influence of
alcohol or opium when he ordored his
men to the mnd and murderous charge
•t Malvern Hill. His friends sny that
Gen. Lee was on the field, commanding
in person—he might have been a mile
off, at tho time these charges wero made
that Mngrndcr’s subordinate officers
may have been to blame; that at any
rate he was acling'under orders; that
Malvern Hill was a powerful position,
which the enemy intended,to occupy as
base, and from whioh it was all impor
tant to drivo him; and that, Dad ho
boon to blame, it was the duty of tho
commanding General to have taken
notice of bis conduct during the twelve
days he remained in the oily, instead
of recalling him nfter he had gone half
way to the new department to which
he had been assigned.
But this is not all, according to tho
Magruder party. Price canie here to
solicit for himself the command of the
Trans-Mississippi department. Tho
President positively refused, although
it had been agreed that he (Price)
should return to Missouri after the bat
tle of Corinth, Prico determined to re
sign and roturn to Missouri as simple
Sterling Price, to begin again just where
he had started. In this dilemma, Mn-
grudor called on him, and the rosiilt of
the interview was such that Price went
away not only satisfied but pleased.
This is the Magruder side of tho ques
tion ; the other I have not heard fully.
It is said Magruder objects to a Court
Martial, but will make a statement of
tbe part that he took in the late battles
and let tbe President take what course
ho nleases. -4
Jackson is not strong enough to as
sume the offensi re, but Bragg is. The
latte’’ has a large, compact, thoroughly
disciplined and mobolized army of vet-
erans, » He is a fighting man, with more
capacity, iv is said, as a General, than
Beauregard; a perfect bull dog in ten
acity of purpose, and has the entire
confidence of his men. Ho will hurt
somebody beforo long, if. somebody
don’t- take pare,
Here in Virginia, we have never had
a disciplinarian, except Jaekson. Lee
does his best; but how is it possiblo for
a General.to do his duty where tho mis
taken clemency of the Executive almost
sets a premium upon desertion, and.the
War Department relies on tho moral
suasion of public opinion to cure strag
gling, instead of holding officers of nil
grados to tlio sternest accountability.
If this system is to be pursued, thefnlty
of Manassas must needs bo re-oniictcd.
That Gen. Jackson fears something of
this sort, is evident, from the excite-
mont ho exhibited not many days after
tho late battles, when, in speaking of
tho delay of tho Government, ho said,
holding out his wrists, “If this folly is
to be’ repoatod, then let them manacle
us at once.”
as a condition to foreign intervention
in our own wav with the Yankoos. In
the recent minority response of border
Congressmen to Lincoln’s proposition,
for the emancipation of tho slaves, we
find tho churge repeated, and in a man
ner that would .indicate their belief in
its truth. They say:
“Weave the more embolden to as
sume this position from the fact, now
become historical, that the leaders of
the Southern rebellion havo offered to
abolish slavery among them as a condi
tion to foreign intervention in favor of
their independence as a nation.”
Now, this statement has been made
too often to bo allowed to pass without
a demand for some definite information
on the point. We muko it; not that
wo would arraign a Confederate officer
on Yankee testimony, hut on theground
that it has been asserted, time and
again, before the world, and so fat* as
we have seen, no authorised contradic
tion of the charge has been made or
attempted, t
Wo then call for. thonameof the rep :
rcsontative of the Confederate States
who entered into such an obligation,
or made a proposition to do so in bo-
lialf of the people. The administra
tion at Richmond should give its atten
tion to tho subject. It is due to the
freomon they represent, and due to our
character ns a nation. If any man has
placed us in so false and inconsistent a
positioji, his name should be known,
and his act repudiated .as it deserves to
be.
OnmiN or the Yankee Phrase “Ske-
daddee.”—A friend of ours says that
this phrase, apparently invented by tho
Ynnkees, in a prophetic spirit, to de
scribe their own predestined perfor
mances in that part of the drill which
is inaugurated by th#' command “right
about faco,” is cortainly dorived from
“skedate,” tlio future tense #f the Greek
verb “shedannumi," signifying “ to dis
perse,” This verb, in some of its ten
ses, is frequently UBed by Ilpmer to
described that manoeuvre called by
McClullan “a change of base,” or “a
stragetio movement,” and known by
others, not so conversant in military
operations, ns “a headlong flight.” We
found some difficulty in accounting
for the manner in which the Yankee
soldiers had contrived to pick u™o
much Grcok ; but our classical friend
had a solution ready for tho occasion.
Ho thinks the phrase was not invented
by (lie soldier, but by some wild col
lege boy, who used it to express the
scattering of a company of boys engaged
in sonio -mischievous prank when a
professor suddenly uppears in their
midst. From the college it passed in
to multitude, and was thus drawn into
general use. The genealogical tree of
“skedaddle” is quite respectable, if
such be the prospectus. Whether it
bo or not, we leave to-the consideration
of scholars and antiquaries. The theo
ry has at least tho merit of being very
ingenious.—Rich. Dti.

A Female sharp-shooter'.—A hand
some youth, apparently some twenty
yesrs of age, dressed in neat artillery
uniform,'endeavored, on Saturday, to
become a member of Company E,
Palmetto Sharp-shooters, Capi. Conk-
ling ; but an unfortunate fact connect
ed with the military status of the dash
ing lad, coming to light, “he” was des
tined to disappointment. The nsoessa
ry medical examination of the lungs
developed the fact that tho bosom was
entirely too full for a man, and the
enthusiastic applicant was put under
arrest, and sent to Castle Goodwin,
where it was immediately ascertained
that “Mrs. Margaret Underwood," who

Panic at Strasbuko.—From a gentle
man recently from Strasburc we learn
that there occurred a panic among the
Yankees at that place on last Wednes
day week. A hurricane sweeping from
Uie South raised a great lino of dust
in the road leading from Front Royal.
The Yankees, some thousand in num
ber, thought the army of the ubiqui
tous Stonewall was certainly upon them.
Setting fire to all their tents and stores
they fled in confusion, the greater num :
her of-them not halting uutil-they ar
