The original plan of ultuck, eonlemphiloil a
joint English mid Fiencli as-ault of the Malakofl.
which a commanding the I vegan am! forming
the grand key to the network of redoubt* and bat -
teries in front of the place, would, if taken, have
rendered the former untcnahle, and placed the
town and harlmr at the mercy of the captors
For reasons however, which nohod’ e.an under
•land, this very sensible and apparently most
practical design was abandoned, and (he plan
wae changed into otto of a simultaneous uttael.
upon the two great works—the Miibikotf lieing
undertaken by the French and the lledan In
ouraelrus. lbe first manifest tli nidi ant ago of
this arrangement was the spreading of our for
ces over a field of difficulties nearly double in
extent, and enabling the enemy to biing a vast
number of guns into (day against ns, which, in
the former ease could not have injured a man.
To vastly enhance the changes of failure involv
ed in this plan to ourselves, our v.hole attacking
forco, including supports and everybody else,
was limited to some four thousand men ; whilst
the French, with a miicb jmlei appreciation of
the difficulty that fell to their share, told oil
twenty-five thousand.
THIS I* AU MIX’ N OKU TO IIKOIN W ITH,
Os our handful, again, a large pr-'poilioti con
sisted of raw recruits, recently arrived to fill up
the gaps in the regiments, which with one or
two exceptions, have saffi.-red accordingly. This i
waa dona through no want of old soldiers, of j
whom the third and fourth divisions could have ‘
furnisho-l abundance—men who have bed) kept
comparatively idle whilst their comrades of the
Light and Second 1 divisions have been worked
like galley slaves. Sirtieorgu Drown is to be
thanked for this selection, anxious as he was to
Gin fresh laurels for his own comuinnd, though
well knew the tnillrritJ of which so large a
proportion of its strength is composed. I h.-tvi 1
already mentioned that tlm twenty-third Jb-gi
ment find bieu chosen to bad the alien k. and
tliat, through a similar motive of mistaken dc
•ife to bringglory to his own favorite corps, (ten.
Airoy was, at. the eleventli hour, pernutt. il to
assign this place of honor t>> thethiily fourth
a regiment which, whether justly or not, enjoys
only a moderate reputation amongst tin- others
now in camp.
Hum rat mistakks.
Later still in tlio e.veaiag preceding the ns-.aull, I
Sir George discovered that the major coiiim.-iml- .
ing the 2;td was still laid up with a wound re-
oetved in the attack on the tjnarrict, aid that !
the aenior captain—an , officer, by the wav, of
some 19 years sei vice— would have charge >f;
the corjrs during the storming. “Impossible ;
this will never do,” said tlm friend of apoplectic
neck furniture, “unother regiment, with a field ,
officer iu command, must lie subs’ Unfed.".
A message to (lifcoH'iict waVT'-logi-nphed to |
head quarters, but laird Kaglan, with n degree
of common sense which was quite unmi'd.orv,
overruled his second's objection, and replied that
an offioer of Captain —\ length of service,
be his rank what it might, should be quite us
fit to lead his regiment into action, ns ,-mv ti-dd
offioer in the service, and accordingly, that no
substitution should he math-. I merely mention
these trifles to show the state of iincci iiiintv and ,
confusion in which our preparations were till al
most within nu houi before iho assailing force j
marched down towards the scene of struggle and j
defeat.
reflection on H ii i"iru.
Then another deviation from the o.igiiiil
plan of the ntlat-k w.-i* m i le, almost at the eiyv
entli hour, by (ton. lVli*sior, to x\hick-Tml.i toil
itary WllM ami common sense iigieo in iiUrjlvil
iog no small slihio of both the French itn.l our
own failure. Though the bombardment had been
kept up vigorously the whole of Sunday night,
necessarily compelled n slackening of the allied
fire, and during this respite there was reason to
eipeot that the Russian* would employ them
•elvos in making good the injuries done to their
batteries the same day. It wa* therefore arrang
ed that at daybreak on Monday a teiriMo lire
of shot and shell should he pouted into the Ite
dan and Malakotrio render as many of tlu ir
glint as possible incapable of mischi< I. An hour
or so, however, leforc the combined forces in ir. h
•and from the eiunp, the Fioueh Cotmumidor in
Chief rode over to our ow n lieinlquotei* and de
dared that lie could not wait for lb’- pi. imiin.'iM
aaaault of artillery, a* he-would djaye many
men in his trenches before the MaUikotl’tliat tln-ro
would le no cover for them : and, ennsoquentlv•.
they sand we) must attack at daybreak, at all
haaard*, and lake tbe chance of linding the cm -
mv'a guns in the most favorable condition in
whiob onr bombardment and their owners'sub
aequent illness (night have left them.
I>RFI?AT I'lmiilCTKll.
Os course itord Raglan complied, though forty
bine out of fifty of the subalterns in his camp
would have foretold the con'siVpiences to b. e\
peeled; and accordingly, soon after tlm (list
atreaks of sunlight broke over the luni/.on the
doomed thousands rushed on to defeat nud death.
8o little is even known of the detail* of French
C lions here, that I can give you few pirtie
of the attack on the M.il.ikotf; hut their
jUn of aatault anp ears to have consisted in *-
aaulting tlie work on both flunk* and the front
aiiuuluxiieously. .and with overwhelming numbers
— twenty -live thousand are said to have been en- I
gaged.

In jiut retribution for the disregard of tb-ir
general to the good to l*o expected from a short
aaoniing’a bombardment, they found the re.luubts
■warming with defenders, and guns bristling
from ever)’ embrasure. <>n them, n* on our own
OMO, showers of grape and canister w.ro poured
out literally mowing down w hole bat.illion* at a
time; whilst from along the whole parapet the
orowd of “riflemen sent Toth-y lifier to!Te\- into
their diaorderud rank*, that passed through them
like a aheet of molten lead. Three times they
gave way, and as often rallied ; but were finally
driven buck after a struggle of somo three hours
and e balC leaving tlm spaeo between the M.uu
elonand Mulakoff literally covered with the dead
jtnd dying.
AN AWHI SCENE.
With our own men, (he *|v> e to lie passed
ow from our most advanced trenches to the Re
duu was somewhere about seven hundred yards,
and from the first moment f i . ; r rushing over
the parapet towards the point of attack, they 1
! w re met hv the rain-- awful and annihilating
■ iiutii of canister and grape. Many fell within
I the lilat dozen yards,and thence on to some bri
■ ken ground about liiidwsi, in which the remain
j del sought cover, the field was screwed with
the slain and wounded. An officer present iir

of the home public on rending the telegraphic

the Fii-liidi, endeavoring lo lake advanlage of

jto recover a number of sealing Inditt-t* which
I tliev had hern compelled to abandon -lining tie

----led u smart tile of grape from the guns of the
Malakoti', wliicli was icpea'e ! bv a shell from
tlnj Mamelon. Almost; simultaneously, a party
of the ciiemv emerged from the Redan, in ex
pectation of what they deemed a similar attack
to that attempted bv the French, and being per
ceived by our men, a volley of musketry was
poured into litem, and chase gave with the bay
onet. \ftcr a short time the Russian* turned
iiii-l fled-, and it was a! this juncture that the hur
rah* 1 have mentioned were sent after them.
After this tho calinoiinado was kept up for some
time from both lines, in the iiintiner 1 have re

Next morning there was hardly a gun tired on
either side, and about twelve o'clock we hoisted
a ting to request tiie necessary truce for the bur
ial of our dead. A delay of some minn'es hav
ing incurred before an answer was given lint
dining which messengers were sent hurrying
from the redoubt towards where we supposed
the genera! of the Russian trendies to be- the
wisacie of all officer ill command uti our side, a
guardsman of more height than apparent intel
ligence, ordered the flag to be pull -1 down.
Five minutes aftci, several Russian officer*
mounted the parapet and waved their caps, as if
inviting us loreiYew the request; but Captain
refused, alleging thatlic must “wait for
further orders an-l this, though many of our
poor wounded fellow* wen- Jv'mg- witfiTn sight,
writhing in pain an-l ihirst under a broili .g sitn ‘
“Furlher orders” were waited for, and no truce,
wa agfill asked till'l o’clock, when it was at
oiuv mul wlion our ileutl atnl womnloil,’
the Utter in ;i most p:\infni state, were brought
IN T K!U( ST IMI INCIDENTS.
I Tlie Russians throw out an advanced line of
sentinels to keep otf crying eyes from the Re-km,
and a similar precaution having been taken on
j our side, the neutral space was thus narrowed
I greatly. The scenes of battle i .imago have
1 been often enough described, so I noe I ontv say
that tills—avas like the res! —harrowing to look
on. Dead and dying lay fill over the ground.
Dining this pn.coo'litig a number ot Russian
ntlie. is mingled among"oitr party, and us *ovcr
iil of them spoke Ki.gitsli tluentiv. a good deal
was said. Their “pumping” inclination, how
ever, was o marked aaittJiiost eases to defeat it
self; though otic of our oil},-, r* was guilty of the
Indiscretion of informing a very* uave interroga
tor that their grape did sad injury to our men in
possession of t In- tjnnrries-A-a remark which pro
cured his instant order to the rear by ticneral i
Airev. *
It was by one of lliosy< polite foes that the in- 1
quirv was made of ati Knglishm.'ut at my side ,
whether “our generals had really been drunk or
not during the recent assault.” The Russians
having helped Us to gather in the dead, the xvuole
sad duty was soon performed, and the truce
brought to an end. Since then nothing of in
terest has occurred, and the tiling has nearly
been suspended altogether.

The Vote on the Kansas Nebraska Bill.
Hon. A. li. .-tcp'iens, and all others in the south
who opp .*•; tlie American Party; paivdeMhe vote
in the last l ‘mures* upon tb ; passage of tlie bill
organizing territorial g -wriiamiits in Kansas and
Nebraska, an 1 assume that all wii voted for toe
bdldid so to show their \vfi.bigness to do justice
to the south, and as a c-c.is.-qiience oil who voted
against tho bill showed thereby an opposition to
the instituti >n of slavery.
Now this assumption wo cann .t admit to be
correct. 1 his Kansas Nebraska bill, was intend
ed to open those territories for immediate settle
ment, and as our own people, the native born cit
izens of the Luitod Mates, did not need it at pres
ent, for the reason that there iv.d already enough
land in market to supply their present wants,
every inducement that could be put in the bill to
invite foreigners to go there and settle, was put in’
Foreigners were told in the Viili that if they would
go there and'settle. they should not only be enti
tled to lOd acres of bvm.l, the tir*t choice in the
country, but that i; tiny w u] l manifest an in- j
tention of becoming citizens they should be enti
tied to vote in all elections there, ‘i’he bill wild I
got up by the friends <h Mr. I’ierce and his admin- \
tration, and therefore it became jind was nit ad-1
ministration measure: The clause in the bill re-!
luting to the slavery question did no more nor less
than reaffirm t lie principles of the compromise .of!
1830 and was put in the bill to make it palatable
to the south, and it did catch a great many south-;
ern votes on that account, lint the passage of tho
bill broke down the administration in the north,
and is likely to do it in the south. .Not because,
it gives a chance to in ike a slave state u£. Kansas,!
but because the prompting motive for fin* passage;
ot the bill, was to buy up the votes of foreigners’
hy giving them the be-t land in the country and ’
admitting them immediately to ail the privileges
of the elective franchise.
Those wli'iopp ~ed this bill both north and south
did so in anticipation < f the passage if the so call- 1
ed 11 aiestcad hill which was then pending and
vb wed the two together as a perfect swindle ab.mt
to . e perpetrated upon our native born citizens.!
and an outrage upon the soldiers who had served
in our wars. Under tlie laws now existing a cit
ir.en of the l nitc-i States cannot go upon any ter
ritory and settle without paying government
price i and our soldiers who get band Warrants’
cannot locate on any hind until it has been in mar
fur a sped lied time, uml no one will take it at gats
eminent price. But under this Kansas and Nebras
ka hill in conjunction with the Homestead bill, a
foreigner who would go there, would be entitled
to ltjij acres of first choice land free of charge.
■Had these territories of Kansas and Nebraska
iomu.ned in the undisturbed possession of the na
tive Indians for 10, 15 or even 20 years, no harm
would have been done The lands would only have
been held in reserv e for our people when they need
ed it to settle on. The way that things are on
now. it will not ho a great many years before all
our lands will be taken up by foreigners, and when
our children and grand children want Jartd to set
tle on. it cannot be had and they will be forced to
quit their own country and try their fortunes in
some other.
This injustice to our own people and the using
of the public domain as capital to trade on
by tlic politicians of the day, in the way of making
voters and buying them up. is what has disgusted
the honest people of the country ; and as a means
to turn out the whole of them, in the hope of
filling their places with hotter rneu, is one of the
leading motives for the organization of the Amer
ican l’arty. This ie what Ins defeated the Ne
braska men ai the north and we believe that the
same feeling will defeat them at the Sbuth, when
ever the people go to the polls. Southern poK
tieians may recite the vote on this bill as evidence
to prove the soundness of some men on the rights
ol the south, but the people believe tlmt where
one was influenced by the slavery question, at least
two were governed by furtign influence in deter
mining tlieir votes.

We do not know that we should have noticed
publicly the two Columns of the last Umpire Stale
occupied by the Col., if lie had not, as we think
unnecessarily, brought up an issue of veracity be
tween Inmself and us If we understand him, lie
certainly accuses us nf • trunqietting him forth as
a retailer of falsehood” and as this is giving us a
character we hy no means covet, we respectfully
ask him to explain. \\ c saw a statement of with
drawals from the order at Baruesville which wae
lirst published i i the Columbus Times & r-entinel
and copied in tin- -'Empire State” and expressed a
doubt as to its truthfulness. If the expression of
an honest doubt as to the truth of certain
newspaper statements is • tnunpetting him (Col.

cave and have in- m rt- to say I ,r fear we uiay slan

A correspondent ol the Washington. Wilkes
co nty. ti*i u'lh'.iin. Miys-there was an election.for
bailiff ut t rawfordvdlc. Tuliaferro county, (tho
place ot Mr. Stephens’ res'.', jicefs on the Till inst..
and that on being oaklh toiiin a candidate against
tlie Antics. ••Sam'’ wa keil up to tlie polls and
electro ms man ! Tlfc writer says, -the otfico
was of no importance to any one, but the fight
was one of principle, and the battle of lnkermann
was not hotter than this.” If the Americans do
such things right under Mr. Stephens’ nose, with
in sight ol his mansion, what may xve expect from
those who are beyond tlie reach of his angry eye 1
Ihe ‘Republican'’ also says, that the story of
twenty-six withdrawals from the American Order
in the neighborhood of Dnnbury, is a -barefaced
falsehood, hut thirt-cn having withdrawn since
the organization of the council in Wilkes county,
and that from a personal interview with most of
the seooders, the editor has not found one who
docs not intend to snpport Mr. Andre ws
Consistent!
1 he opponents of Americanism hereabouts, pro
iess to have a holy horror fur anything like secret
combinations, or i.ny party action which is not
proclaimed front the housetops in the face of open
day ; and yet they have met in secret and appoint
ed committee men whose lm-iness it is to work se
cretly and influence, if po.-sible. every ild demo
crat who lias joint and the-American order to quit
tho “dark lantern” concern and return to the old
democratic fold
Again, ii is asserted bv muic who profess to know
tbatjiotwitbstanding their upon denunciations ot
secret political societies, they have in this place a
■Nig N icht” associate n. gotti ti op for the purpose
oi counteracting the influence of the “Know Noth

And again, it is known that at a special election
fir a member ot Council, on the last Saturday in
April, ol votes were east fur If .>/'■>. a negro : and
as so many votes could nut have been pol oil for
the same name, \i itbout some previous understand

matter ot course that a secret Influence or agree

They cry out against secret rganhatlons to at
