reason tor sending those troops is to keep the
negro troops in proper subjugation,as 1 have
heard they “rule the roast’’ prodigiously.—
Apropos o! negroes,.they carry things with
a high hand here now. A white man is con
sidered as ‘‘respectable” as n negro, if he be
haves himself unusually quiet, orderly, and
aiimissively. Squads continually perambu
late the streets, and bring inti? the depots all
those unwilling to fight for the “boon ot

able-bodied, but not unwashed and unterri-
tied- Public meetings of negroes is no unu-
t tial occurrence—they moot and deliberate
gravely on “matters of importance,’’ and
send up rockets by way of interlude. The
negro soldiers not on duty carry their side
aims and a revolver or knife as an addition
al implement'. ■ but, concealing these latter.
Night before last a negro let his pistol gooff
in a house and ueary qlew the faeo off a lit

A buiMA Spoiled.—The dramatic taste
of the Yankees sometimes rises above the
level <;1 “ Jakey,” “ Our American Cousin,”
“P.i.X and Cox,” and tl >- like. They at-
tempted something quit < heroic a few nights
ago at Charleston when they made the as
sault in barges upon tdumlnr. The identical
! tlag which the once famous Major Robert
Anderson carried Irum BuDitfr when that
fort was reduced by Beauregard in April
18b 1, was stowed away iu one of the barges
ready to be raised on the dilapidated walls
the moment the little garrison was overpow
ered, and the place once more “held, occu
pied and possessed,” in accordance w ii.Ii the
Inaugural programme of Lincoln, i his hit
of poet it justice W" s a conception two
years old, the execution of which had been
repeatedly postponed, owing, doubtless, to
“unavoidable circumstances.” Admiral
Dalghren aud Gen. Gillmore, however, had
put their hands to the work, and after two
months of incessant toil, and iminese loss of
blood and powder, all things were supposed
to Ire in readiness for the thrilling scene that
was to electrify the Yankee nation, elicit
poems from Whittier and George W. Curtis,
be the subject of a painting in the rotunda
of the eapitol, and adorn all the geographies
for centuries to come.
The play was gotten up regardless of ex
pense. and it is almost a pity it was spoiled.
But Gen. Beauregard is au illiterate, bad
man. He regards the high dramatic art of
the Yankees as mere clap trap, looks upon
Dablgrcn and Gilmore as second rate actors,
(in spite of the splendor of their pariipher-
naliu and the giganVc amount of their stage
machinery,) anti takes a’Vandal-like delight
in in spoiling their prettiest shows. He
scents, too, to have a deep insight into Yan
kee character, coupled with what is called
“ military intuition.” Wo now understand
what ho meant, when ia reply to Dahlgren’a
demand for the surrender of Sumter, he told
him to “come and take it,” otherwise “all
such demands are puerile and unbecoming.”
He expected the night assault, and set a
smash-trap to crush the assailants. They
were crushed accordingly. How he con
trived to capture the very barge containing
Maj. Andcrsou’s flag, is a mystery. Some
wilt say this was only a piece of his good
luck; but wo cannot so regard it, foi 1 the
highest authorities hero do not consider him
lucky. We preler to believe that^ho flag
was captured in strict accordance with “Lit
tle Borey’s” plan.
At all events, the drrma is spoiled. Come
what may, it never can he acted. Sumter
may yet be carried, the inner deienses of
Charleston may follow, aud the city itaelf
may he destroyed by incendiary shells, but
the same old flag will never be raised over
Ihe proud ruins for which the Yankees will
have paid so dearly. Beauregard’s failure
to appreciate the lovo of “ the true, the
beautiful, and the good,” which prompted
Dahlgreu and Gillmore to undertake the
performance of the flag drama, must be a
source of great mortification to gentlemen
so refined and cultivated. Henceforth their
drama degenerates into a farce, and, let the
0th act end as it will, a pitiable anticlimax
is inevitable. The “ old flag” being lus*, the
play is damned forever, even in the eyes of
the Yankees.—Ifch. WMg.
of a fracture
skull—ft piece of which projected outwards
to some longth, and the healing of the fleshy
parts depended on its removal. The bone
was so firmly fixed, however, as, in the opin
ion of the surgeon, would cause unnecessary
pam in its forcible removal, and such reme
dies were applied as would assist nature iu
eventually ejecting it, A soothing poultice
was placed on the port a night or two ago,
a hole being made through the application
for the insertion of the projecting bone.—
The patient was soon asleep in his bed ; but
during the night was aroused by the sting
of pain, and awoke to discover- a rat making
off with the piece of bone In his mouth. He
struck at and hit the rat, but did not hurt
him.
The rat had probably been drawn to the
bed of the soldier by the scent of the poul
tice, which was pleasant to his olfactories;
but upon reaching it, his keen appetite, no
doubt, caused him to rolish iu a large de
gree the juicy bone so convenient to his
teeth. He therefore seized and drew it from
ifa position, and was made to scamper off by
the patient whom ho had aroused with paiu.
It was a skillui operation, quickly perform
ed, and will result beneficially to the inva
lid. We uudeTstand the patient is geitiug
on remarkably well.
Tice Dash on Mooufield.—The dash of
McNeil into Moorefleld, Hardy e-aumy, last
week, resulted In tho following list of cap
tures :
11 wagons, VS horses, 133 stand of arms,
10,000 round* of cartridges, 57 splendid re

sabres, 112 cartridge-boxes, 100 bayonet

set of heads, together with all their camp
equipage, and last, Imt not least by any
means, 147 “live Yankees,” (Western Yir
gtnia Yankees) including 8 officers.
It will be seen from the following order,
captured iu the Yankee eamp, that arrange

ley of musketry from guerillas, or bush
whackers, concealed on tho Arkansas shore.
Without stopping to ascertain the extent of
the damage, extra steam wa9 brought iu re
quisition, aud the boat was soon beyond the
rauge of the fire. Sul>3equont examination
revealed that although none of the passen
gers or crew were injured, five horses on the
lower deck had been killed by the volley.
it will be remembered that the splendid
packet Atlantic, commanded by the popular
Captain Harry McDougald left this port for
New Orleans. We learn by the arrival of
the Sultana, which reached the city yester- 1
day afternoon, that while passing Morgan’s
Bend, below Vicksburg, she wss fired into
from lbs Louisiana shore. Eighteen balls
penetrated her works, causing much excite

Our Advantage cv Position.—The New
York Times discourses on strategy, and
comes to the conclusion that “two years’ ex
perience has pretty well settled the almost
utter hopelessness of an effective pursuit of
the rebels.” The reason# for this conclusion
are thus stated;
“Putting aside the subordinate causes that
conspire to tfiia result, the one groat cause is,
that from the fact of their occupying interior
lines, they, In a retrograde movement, fall
back on their base of supples, while we move
constantly from ours. The prodigious ad
vantage this gives them must be apparent to
any oue acquainted with the material condi
tions that govern military movements—to
any one who realizes the vast train required
to supply a moving army with its food and
forage and ammunition. Every mile shortens
their line and brings them nearer to their
base of supplies; every mile lengthens ours,
takes us further away from our base, and
rendars advance progessi^rely more and
more difficult. With them it is a march to
a point where their labors not only lighten,
but end; with us it is an advance toward a
point where, while the danger reaches its
maximum, tho difficulty, at tho same time,
reaches its, All these facts belong to tho
peculiarities of warfare in this country—pe
culiarities that make it altogether different
from warfare in Europe, and which render
all comparisons futile.”
It follows from this view of tho Times that
the farther we are driven the better it is for
us and the worse for them. The longer the
war continues, and the greater the seeming
gains of the enemy, the more their difficul
ties increase and ours diminish. Nor ia the
progress of the increase on the one side and
diminution on tho other in arithmetical pro
portion only, but after a certain point it pro
ceeds per salium, and reaches at once the
bound beyond which no advance can be
made. There are some things beyond the
power of military enterprise to accomplish.
Napoleon found "this out in Russia. When
that limit lias been reached, the time for the
retiring party to turn on the assailant and
demolish him, has arrived. We have not
yet been forced, except to a limited extent,
to try the virtue of retreating tactics. But
should It become unavoidable, it will prove
infallible.
We agree with the R ohtaoud Wh-ff, that
there is another disadvantage under which
the enemy labor that the 2imes does not
consider. Up to this time they have had the
powerful assistance of their navy, estimated
by themselves as equivalent to a figh
ting fores on land of 300,000 men.—
Nearly all that the Navy can do in the way
of active warfare, has been done, and for the
future there are only three or four places
where it can give us any trouble. Its impo
tence will be a heavy discount on tho eue-
my’a fighting power.—(JM-ttmhia South Caro

8rnoEOX Rat.—Oar neighbor of the Pe
tersburg Express is responsible lor tbe Ibl
lowing:
We have heard aud read a great many
stories about the rat, but in all our experi
ence we never before had one brought be
fore us in the character of a surgeon. We
learn that at one of our large hospitals a
night or two since, an operation was success
fully performed uDon an invalid soldier by
a common rat, which the surgeon m charge
had himself delayed for a time, w*ith the
hope ot causing less suffering to the pauenL
Tms patient was suffering from the enect ay
Were we to credit all the stories we
hear, we should be bound to believe that
every general “oa the planet” is somewhere
in Northern Georgia, between Atlanta and
Rome. It appears that the 44 bould sojer
boys,” always wide awake for fan, amuse
themselves at tho expense of every gaping
stranger they see, and when interrogated as
to the name of any ind : vidual who is seen
to pass with the wreathed stars on his col- j
lar, give such an answer as will be most
calculated to excite the wonder of the que- j
rlst at the immensity of the movements in j
progress. So, too, when a brigade passes
any satisfaction; and tell a man unused to
military matters that a brigade of 2,000 men
is 5,000 strong, he will readily believe it. A
traveler, defamed at Atlanta recently, see
ing an elderly officer in the uniform of a
genera], asked a soldier who was standing
near, who it was. The soldier had used up
the entire army list, aud was slightly at a
fe: s, bat, not betraying h:s embarrassment,
ho replied in a drawling tone, making up
liis story as he went along:
“ Stran-ger. that’s Gen-c-ral Washington;
k«’s come from Mount Vernon to see ns
whip Rosecrans, and as soon as it’s over
bo’s going back to Old Virglnny ! ”
