Virginia, May 25lb, 1*61. /
Dear Confederacy: The 44 Allan!* Ore/a”
reached Richmond yesterday, About 11 o’clock,
A: M. and are now eneamptd about two tailaa
North-Eist of the city, In tenia aimilar to
thoaa you have ao often aeon upon our Oeor
fia Camp-Qrounda. The camp ia ait anted in
an open plain entire!/ deatitute of shade-trees.
Our Captain, in oonjunotion with Capt. Bar
tow, ia endeavoring to accure more eligible
quertere near the river, and we all hope the/
will aucceed, for the only faoilitiee we at prea
aot have for bathing ia a small trough, wbieb
we fill from a pump of pure, oold water. Speak
ing of water it ia excellent, almost aa oold aa
ioe water.
We found that only one Company—tha
44 Oglethorpe Light Infantr/"--of our Regi
moot had preceded ua. They had no notioa
of our oomiog and were either luxuriating on
the grata or varioualy employed about their
tenta.
Whan they »aw ua ooming, they rapidly
formed into line, and as we marched by gave
three hearty cheers and a tiger for oar glori
oue old Commonwealth. Every Qeorgian’i
heart ia fired with patriotic resolve at the man’
lieu of her name, and when tha day of conflict
ccraea, rest assured, though tee may not sur-
vive to tell the tale, her honor will remain urn
sullied. Gov. Brown may persist in casting
reproach upon our State by sending defense
less troops to fight her battles, but we would
not shrink from our duty though illy prepared
to meet it. Our Captain did right, when, at
the bidding of this Georgia dictator, he sur
rendered our guns, for it was setting bis men
an example of subordination to constituted au
thority ; but 1 am echoing the sentiments of
every man in the Company when I say, if 1
had been Captain, be never would have got
them. I should have taken them along right or
wrong, aa Capt. Barlow’s Company did, leav
ing Joseph to fret and fume as much aa he
pleased. This Regiment won’t vote for him
any more.
Our trip was aa pleasant as our manner of
traveling would permit. Every where, we
were greeted by the cheers of brave men and
the smiles of fair women, who showered bo-
quela upon us, and bid us God speed. At
Goeben Swamp, in North Carolina, where we
were detained a abort lime, we met a bevy of
country damsels, who sang ‘‘Dixie’s Land”
and other patriotio songs. The boys sang in
return, and, between talking and singing, we
bad a gloriooa lima. They passed along the
cars aa the engine whistled, and gave each
one of us a cordial shake of the hand and a
heartfelt goodbye. It would have aroused
you to hear them speak in their plain way of
Lincoln. I told a black eyed little maiden
that 1 was going to fight for her. “ Well,”
said she, “Kill Lincoln.” Another tall spe
cimen of North Carolina femininity passed
along the cars, and the burden of her exborta
tion was, 44 Be certain to kill old Lincoln.”
I asked a widow, “fair, fat and forty,” what I
should bring her from the war? Without hes
itation she replied, *' Bring me old Lincoln’s
big-roe. I want it for turtle bait.” The spir
it of these illiterate eountry girls if chastened
and refined by eduoation, would rise into an
exalted patriotism.
Our oorps, during the whole journey, deport
ed themselves aa gentlemen. Their fioe ap
pearance— my modesty will hardly permit me
to say this—and courteous demeanor was tha
subject of universal remark. Capt. Cooper,
on our arrival, oomplimented ua, and told us
that all the Conductors along the routs had
remarked that they had never before seen
auoh a quiet, well behaved body of men, and
further that our conduct had been the means
of gettiog us a great many favors which had
been refused others. I must close now for
drill. Yours truly, M.

just as it wae out, is five feet three inebee. Id
this connection, I would respectfully suggest
to the farmers in our vicinity to provide Tar.

Mr. Russel’s Fourth Letter to the Lon
don Times.
The following is a short extract which we
clip from Mr. Russel's fourth letter to London
Times. It is dated al Norfolk, Va , April loth,
just after the fall of Fort Sumter :
Sumter has fallen at last. So much may be
Accepted. Before many hours I hope to stand
amid the mine of a spot which will probably
become historic, and has already made more
noise in the world than its gune, gallant as
the defense may have been. The news will
produce an extraordinary impression al New
York—it will diaconcert stock jobbers and de-
range the most ingeuious speculations. But,
considerable as may ba iia results in any
pan of tha Union, 1 venture lo say that no*
whera will tha shock cause such painful con
vulsions as in the Cabinet of Washington,
where there appeared to exist the most perfect
conviotion that the plan for the relief of Sum -
ler could not fail to be aucoaasful either thro’
the force of the expeditiou provided for that
object, or through the unwillingness of the
leaders at Charleston to fire tbe first
shot, and to compel the surrender of the
piece by aotnal hostilities. Tbe confidence
of Mr. Howard in tha strength of the name
and resouroes of tha United States Fed
eral Government muet receive a rude blow,
but his confidences are by no means of weak
ly constitution, and it will be long ere he can
bring hlmsetf to think that all his prophecies
must ba given upon# after another before the
inexorable logic of facts, which his vaticins*
lions have been ia “irreprtss.ble conflict.”—
It seems to as that Mr. Seward has all along
undervalued the spirit and the resolution of
the Southern slave States, or that he has dis
guised from other! tbe sense, be entertains
of their extent and vigor. The days assigned
for the life of (he secession kaa not yielded up
the ghost. Tha bravado of tha South has been
sustained by tha deads which render retreat
from Ua ndvpnoed peaiuea itape^ikto. j»*.u

Savannah, May 25, 1801.
To the Editor of tbe Savannah Morniog News :
Sir : On my arrival from New York, I find
a publication going tbe rounds, relative to my
treatment in that city by a mob.
It is due truth to say, that the statement is
exaggerated and enlarged. A mob, oosnpoaed
of Wide Awakes, us I have reason to believe,
vieited my residence at night on two occasions,
and attempted to annoy me by groanings, his
ses and offensive rpithets, but they neither
demanded nor reoeived ad/ money from me.
A military terror prevailed over the oily for
the past month, and many citizens were un
der duress, both of opinion and action, and
no doubt many were thus induced to contri
bute to tbe military fund, oontrary to their
wishes but I left the city publicly and return
ed without any molestation, and am rejoiced
to be again under the protection of the Con
stitution and law.* which [lave been totally
subvened by Mr. Lincoln and his military

crop prospects from all sections of tbe couo
try, and with but very few exceptions tbe pros
pects are the u>o«t flattering that they have
been for years. The wheat orop is now made,
and it ia the finest ever known, both as to / ield
and the breadth of tbe land sown. Sections
where little wheat has been sown before,
have large quantities for sale this year. In
fact from whnt wo can learn but few sections
will bate any flour to buy this year. A great
increase iu the breadth of land planted in corn
is gjueral throughout the country, and with
ordiuary seasons tbe largest corn crop ever
known will be made. This is as it should be,
especially in war times.—Mobile Mercury.
The wheat crop in this section is now con
sidered safe, and it will be tho largest ever
harvested.—Clar/.snlls Jeffersonian.
The wheat and corn crop in Bedford are
very promising.—Shelbynlle Expositor.
Wheat Crop.—The prospects of the wheat
crop in this section of the country, we are
proud to say, never was more favorable. It
bids fair for an abundant harvest. Soon it
will be ready for tbe sickle. Much more was
sown last lull than usual, and consequently
the yield will be much greater than the pre
vious year.—Concord (if. 0.) Flog.
We have made diligent inquiry of our plant
ing friends in regard to the prospeot of Ibe
wheat orop.and are gratified to learn that there
never has been as good a prospect for an abun
dant yield. It is said that the present crop,
in this section, will bo at least one third more
than that of Iasi year. — Cherokee Mountaineer.
The wheat orop, too, looks finely, though we
hear some complaint relative to rust upon tbe
blade. Most of it, however, is so forward t hat
we do not think much injury will result from
it. Oats, too, look well, and we hear no com
plaiut relative lo rust attacking them. For
several years past ibis disease has oatusd
great injury to this useful crop, causing in
some places ao almost total failure.—Louisville
{Ga ) Gazette.
Between this point aud Dublin, says tbe
Pulaski 44 Times,” crops look excellently, and
appearances now lodicate an abundant har
vest. The wheat and rye fields are heavy
with grain, and have as yet been little affected
by rust. Corn looks unusually well, and tbe
yield bids fair to be a largo one.
Corn in Mississippi.—^Tho Carrolton (Miss.)
44 Democrat” says:
Wo have made particular inquiry of our
farmers, and have received the uniform reply
that they are all planting much more ooru than
usual. Some say, if their crops turn out as
they now promise, they will make enough corn
to supply their ova wanto for two years.
Desertions fr»m Lincoln’s Aemy.—A
Washington letter says: Scott is losing over
1,0<V) men every week from desertion alone,
as his troops are nearly starved and won’t
May. The famous OUth Irish Regiment, from
New York, lost 104 men by desertion in three
days, end they joined ibn camp of tbe Virgin
ia troops, as two full companies, at Mannas
sat Gan Junction, which is only fifteen miles
from Washington City.
