Il i« is » noun try tbel la full of demeetio foot, and on that sooautit require# double tho force that would otherwise he neeeaaary. The Uoiled Bute* Government baa alao made the heldlag of that portion of (be 8tate one uf ita prime objects ; end for thi» purpose hea thrown an overwhel ming foroe into il. Tbeae two important facta seen* to have hean overlooked, or diaregerded —to gome extent at leaat. It surely waa not wisdom to send out a force of tome eight or tan thousand, under Goaere) Garnett, into an un friendly oouutry to meet such a fore# as the enemy would naturally ooooenirate there- seeing the stake they had made upon hold ing it. Gen. Garnett's army was out to pieces and routed—entirely driven out of Nerth-Wsetern Virginia, where the enemy now holds full away. Gen. Wiee was sent to South-Western Virginia, down the valley of the Kanawha, to keep the invaders out of that section, with one brigade; and uow ha it retreating before the overwhelming foreea of Gan. Cox, who boasts that he hae "cleaned out the rebels" from all Western Virginia, without a battle. These things should not have been. Our op orations in that quarter should have bean more successful, or they should not have been under- tsken. It is evident that our calculations have been at fault concerning the forces necessary to be scat to Western Virginia. Our army is again concentrating at McDowell, to go into that country to retrieve our lost fortunes. Generals Lee, Loring, and Jackson, in addition to Wise, are assigned to the command in that Depart- meat. Let large forces be provided, and suffi cient preparations be made this time. Let suc cess he sure before a single advance movement is made. llow they Intend to Govern us. On the 10th July, the Abolition Congress had under consideration a bill to pardon Abe Lin coln forwilfal and deliberate perjury in vio lating, with malice aforethought, the Consti tution of the United States which he had sworn to preserve inviolate. They called it a bill to apf rove and con firm all bis acta during this war. During that discussions, Senator Baker, of Oregon, an English Hessian, said : “We may have to reduce ber (the South) to the condition of the Territonee, and have to pl-iee over them Governors from Mauachutettt and lUinoit to control them. We bad belter run the risk to erect a despotism than to lose the Union.** It may be that the people of Georgia will, some day, submit to have Henry Wilson, of Massachusetts, or Lyman Trumbull, of Illi nois, or someone else from within the borders of Abolitiondora, come down here and be Gov ernor for them. If so, we con feu that we slightly mistake the character of our people. hoe oaM aught egalaat aenoradfinolt -rl t.11 Mm wl My collet* .1 oar conversation, 9m.

Beott. on Tuesday, the 18 th July, before the battle of Bull'e Run, on the 18th, where the Federate were repnleed. We bare erery coe- tideoo. that the Genenl'e remarks ere correct ly reported, and they show that the plan of conducting the war did not then meet hie ap probation. After the battle at Stone Bridge, he was thrown into a rage by remora, cud sail re proach, which lashad him into such an unooa- troUblephrenty of mind, that h« gateway to the meet humiliating confeeiioni and diigrace- ful self accusation!. This "lean.” took pleca iu a conversation between the President and Gan. Scott, in tha presanea of Hoo. Wm. A. Richardson, of Illinois, and waa related .by Mr. Richardson, openly io the House of Repre sentatives. There can bo no sort of doubt of ita entire truth. We well end personally know Col. Riehardaon, eud never found but one fenlt In him ; that ia, a blind devotion to the Union, eud the stars and etripea. He has no sympathy with the Abolitiooiele, end never had. lie is a man of truth, and we will vouch for the accuracy of whatever he etetea ■> a fact. In the House of Representatives, on Wed nesday, (14th July,) after the bailie ef Stone Bridge, he said i You huvoai the head of th# army a mao who bora your flag through tho war la 1812.

He had scarcely uttered the a«DUDCd, when a Zouave approached him and said: " Yea It will, or ettry d—d »—n of a b-hofa SecMionitl will be exterminated. You a*e one of them, and you are my prisoner," at the same time sailing Mr. Welby by tbo collar.— There wars some 3,000 soldiers in and about tha dapot, and Mr. Welby waa dragged into tba cars, tha Zouave swearing that be would Ukt him to Philadelphia, where he would get hia deserts. Iu response to a question asked by a soldier aa to what waa the matter, the Zouave replied that be had "arrested a d—n Secessionist." In an instant there waa a cry raised of " hang him ” Crowds of soldiers, with their muskets end revolvers drawn, flocked around Mr. Welby, and swore that he should he hung. At this time, a vice police officer esme up. end Mr. Welby was banded over to him by the Zouave, who ordered him to be taken to the police station. The police man started with Mr. Welby, accompanied by the Zouave and two soldiers. After proceed ing some tLree or four squares, some citizens gathered around end demanded to know the cause of the arrest, when the Zouave sent one of the soldiers back to the depot to inform tha crowd that bis prisoner was about to be rescu ed. In a few minutes, some twelve or fifteen soldiers cams rushing up the street with raus kets and revolvers. The Zouave then direct ed tha vice police to take Mr. Welby back to the depot. This was accordingly dona, tha vice policeman offering no resistance. Mr. Welby waa again subjected to the violence and threat# of the cr.*wd of soldiers. Borne of the officers here interfered, and directed him to be taken to the police station, which waa done, and he waa locked up for two hours At six o’clock, Justice Griffin examined the oase. and there being no evidence against Mr. Welby, he was discharged. Items from the Battle of Ktoue Bridge. The correspondent of the Charleston Charter, writing from Manassas on the 25th July, re lates the following incidents: Among thoae killed, who did not participate in tba fight, was a poor old lady, 86 years of age, who resided in a little farm house directly in tha eentre of the field, and between the converging forces of a demon or twenty hatte riea that were playing upon each other. Una ware that the battle would be fougbt in that vicinity, end too feeble to be removed, she re meined in the house attended by her son and daughter throughout the battle. First they would move ber to the upper story; a ball would fiy through, and they would descend in a fright, when they would ascend again, and thus from on# room to another, creeping along upon the floor, and crouching in the corners, they would endeavor to escape the balls, which thiokly flaw around them. The old lady’s strength was finally completely exhausted and she was laid upon a low bed where she was struck first in the leg, second in the shoulder, and third in the body—the last shot merciful ly terminating her sufferings. Strange to say, neither tbe son nor daughter were touched, though tbe bouse was riddled by no lets than thirty eannon balls and hundreds of bullets. Relating some incidents of the wounded, he says: Another was shot in tbe back while laying down, the ball passing under the shoulder blade, coming out in front and between his shirt and body, where it was afterwards found. The lest individual, waa a Mississippi rifle man, and aa it shows the coolness of the men from hia section of the country, I give hia ac count la hia own words. Ha said : “Stranger, I wee fighting mighty mean, ly ing down and popping away as faetaa I could, when the first thing 1 know’d tbe little whist ler tapped me right where you see the mark.— Now, the feot is, I’ve stood fire afore, end bin torta of scrimmages, end I thoui ’a time was come; hut I thougl the d d Yankee Abolitionist that drawed a a bead on me, and I waa bound to have one shot at him if I died for it. Bo I ris up, got the Yankee between me and old Mississippi, and if yon ever seed a man come down on his knees ia double quiek, it wee that same old Aholi- tioner. I thought I’d done eouf, so I laid down on the ground end quit, and tbe next thing I know’d, they brought me here. Jeet say I won't die, Doctor, and I’ll stand a treat’’ I assured him I waa no physician, hut that there waa evidently too much gristle about him for him to die from such a wound. " Wall,stranger, said he, " I’m powerful glad te hear you aey that; jeet give me a drink of water, peel my shirt off end wrap it in my blanket, and I’ll be as * lags." Speaking of lbs cruel inhumanity oil ha sav age villains ia not coming to taka oars of thslr wounded sad bury their dead, ha says : Hod tho enemy, no io tho custom, ef civilised warfare, teal detachments lo bury thslr dead, the field would have boon stripped of thcee decaying corpses la two or three days; bat with oar own dead to bury, wounded to earn for, sod tko movement of our forces. It kaa beta Impossible to do all that humanity re- S oiree. Many of the enemy's wounded must »vs suffered indescribable agony before they •spired. Their bodies wore frequently found •oaeenlsd among the hashes, far away from tho 41a of battle, whore they bod crept for •hade aad aafsty, and there thsy lay la every •ttlduds that oould betoken a peaceful or a horrible death.
