The N. Y. Herald of the 5th gives a long
account of the battle near Richmond, which
shows, d. spite its efforts-to distort the truth,
that the Confederates gained a brilliant vic
tory. The writer admits that our troops dis
played great intrepidity. The Herald edito
rially admits the Yankee Joss to be 800 killed
ahd 8 000 wounded, aud says the rebel loss
iu Ailleu and wounded is 5,500 and 1.500
prisoners. A large number ot Yankee offi
cers were killed and wounded. Among the
killed is Col. Riker, of Anderson's New York

Editorial Correspondence.
Gatoso Hor?E, Memphis, May 31.
1 left Mobile at 1 o’clock, P. M., on the
29th, by the Mobile & Ohio R. R., which
runs northwardly nearly parallel with the
Tombigbee river, through a poor picey woods
country. The road is in excellent running
order, and we arrived at Meridian, 134
miles, by 12 o’clock. Here a change of cars
lost me my agreeable compagnon du voyage,
“Nick.” who was looking up his lost goods.
A run of lb8 miles brought tne to Jackson,
the Capitol of Mississippi, which I reached
at 8, A. M„ the 30th—stopped at the “Con
federate House,” a new, large, well fur
nished, and well kept Hotel, near the Rail
road Depot. Here I found Dr. Simmons and
Mr. Hunhicutt, where they have been for
several months, mining their freight. Gen.
Lovell's family, and many other notables,
are at this Hotel. The bustle reminds me
of a newly opened watering place.
I remained here during the day. At 6, P.
M., I took the train for Grenada, where we
arrived at 1 this morning ; and from there I
reached this place at 8, A M.
After breakfast I went out on Front Row
to look after eome business matters. The
first incident that attracted my attention,
was ihe burning of about 100 bales of cot
ton, that had beea ferreted out from its hi>
ding place by the Government Agent, who
is determined to deprive Federal sympathi
zers <f the luxury of trading with Yankees.
The next sight was about a dozen men
raising a Confederate flag on an old political
pole that stood on the blnff It was certainly
deferred to ablate hour—just before the city
ie expected to fall into the hands of the ene
my.
in crossing Front to Main street, 1 ob
served a long train of cars, laden with valu
able machinery, which was being moved to
Grenada. Here I got a cab and drove to the
Memphis & Charleston R. R. depot—got there
just in time to see Col. Sam. Tate, the Presi
dent, and all hi9 railroad cfficials. take the
last train, with the remainder of all move-
able valuables. This road lost some 60 cars
and 7 locomotives, just below Corinth. By
some mistake, a railroad bridge was burned
on the Mobile & Ohio Road, which cut off
these cars, laden with commissary stores,
arms, soldiers’ trunks, baggage, &o.. when
they all had to be burned.
The enemy ie now in possession at Corinth
— Beauregard having fallen back, as I inti
mated be would in my last • so the enemy
can have full possession of the M. & C. R.
R. from here to Bridgeport, as soon as they
see fit to take it. This is a sad thought.
There are a great many “military necessi
ties”
Memphis is dry and dusty ; stores at least
half closed up ; but few goods of any kind
in those that are open; no cotton, no sugar,
no molasses any where to be seen -
It was determined some weeks since to
burn all the cotton and groceries liable to
fall into the hands of the enemy, and pre
paration was made to do so. Subsequently
the order was modified, and the Government
Agents were ordered to seize jtnd ship into
the interior all sugar and molasses that were
in danger, an account of which was to be
kept, and the owners to be paid for the Bame
at a uniform price. The objects in view were,
first, to keep it out of the enemy's hands,
aud next, to convey these useful articles to
points where they are greatly needed, and
there to exchange them for flour and pro
visions for the army. Of the wisdom of this
measure, I may say something at another
time. For the present, I merely give the
facts. This seizing extends all the way down
to Vicksburg, Jackson and Meridian; so
those who have spent so much time, money
and sleepless nights looking after and trying
to Eave their groceries will be no better off
than those cool philosophers, who, like the
widow on the eve of her second marriage,
after careful reflection, made up her mind
to take thingt as they came.
Bombarding at Fort 'Pillow continues
every day, thongh but little is known of af
fairs up there,
Every body who desires to do so, and can,
have left here, with their families and
household gods. Every day auctioneers are
busy selling furniture and housekeeping
articles of all kinds—pianos, chairs, sofas,
any quantity of jars filled wtth pickles, jel
lies, preserves, Ac., that cannot be conveni
ently removed. Many persons look sad. It
is indeed a melancholy necessity, to aban
don one'* home to the use of an invader* But
while so many men thus patriotically sacri
fice their all, and adhere to our cause, look
ing to a return to their homes, with the
blessings of peace in due season, 1 am in
clined to the opinion that a very large por
tion of the citizens now about Memphis,
await the hourly expected coming of the
Federals with illy concealed pleasure.
Tna towns and cities all alocg ths banks
of the Father of Waters are making the best
resistance in their power. Grand Guif, War-
renton, Waterproof, Rodney, Vicksburg, Ac.,
are contesting every inch of ground,horning
every bale of cotton, and organizing sicamp
sharp shorten, whs will lie in ambush at ev
ery bond of the river, ready with sure aim,
steady arms and firm hearts to pick off their
pilots or men as they may show themselves.
This will make the Mississippi a hard stream
to naTigste, the same as "Jordan is a hard
road to travel.”
I see none and can hear of but little grow
ing cotton in all this cotton growing country.
Wheat is mostly harvested and much injured
by rust or mildew. The very nrospect of
large quantities of corn has caused hundreds
of young swine to spring up and grunt hope
fully around and about every Southern corn
crib and lot.
During my trip I have observed {one im
portant fact, and I mention it to offer a few
reflections thereon. 1 am, and have ever
been, a temperate man in the use ot intoxi
cating beverages, though I have always op.
pooed any prohibitory roatrietions upon the
■ale of liquors; but recent observation has
greatly modified my former views on that
subject. During my entire trip to this place
every train and depot has been croweed with
soldiers and passengers, but 1 have seen on
ly two drunken men since I left Atlanta —
Passengers seem quiet. 1 observe no yelling
and screaming of soldiers in passing t^wns,
no loud talking and swearing in the cars or
in the presence of ladies, and good order is
manifested everywhere. Why is this 7 It is
because of the difficulty of obtaining liquor
by the way side. Rigid military orders have
closed all the drinking saloons and bars in
hotels or elsewhere, on the way. A toddy
cannot be had in any of the towns through
which I have passed, for love or money. Ju
leps, smashes, cobblers, and aH the delight
ful and exhilarating beverages are as scarce
as old Java Ccjfte, and as difficult to find as a
pair of cotton cards in a country store. I
verily believe if the whole system of retail
ing liquors was prohibited by law, and the
prohibition rigidly enforced, it would re
dound to the individual and collective good
every man, woman and child in the broad
lend. Let iiquor be used just as castor oil or
quinine would be; prescribed by a sober fam
ily physician when necessary, and used ac
cording to directions. This would seem a
little hard to old topers and retailers, but ev
ery man who is now engaged in the trade,
who is a sober enough to think, will find it
difficult to take his pencil and cet down the
names of a half dozen men who have made
a lifetime business of retailing aud who have
ended their days either rich, sober or respec
table. This great fact admitted, every can
did man will at once admit that he could en
gage his time and talents in some other more
profitable and certainly more agreeable, use
ful and more exalted pursuit.
If this policy w >nld not reform the old to
pers, whose bestial habits are ineradicable,
they would either have to quit for the lack
of facilities to get liquor, or they would all
soon die out; and bestW all, It would great
ly diminish the abundant crop of ycunSf
drunkards now coming on. Men are not
born sots. It is an acquired taste like chew
ing and smoking tobacco. The habit of
drinking that makes men drunkards is most
ly acquired in youth. Remove the facilities
for obtaining liquor by the drink—make it
difficult to obtain, and hence difficult for
boys to acquire the habit. How true that
Vice Is a monster A such frightful mieu,
Ai to be hated needs but to be seen,
Vet seen too oft, familiar to our face,
We first endure, than pity, then embrace.

Execution ot Andrews, the Engine Thief.
Yesterday evening’s train irom Chattnoo-
ga brought to this place, to be executed, An
drews, the leader of the Engine Thieves, un
der sentence of death, convicted by court
martial of being a spy. He was carried out
Peachtree street road, accompanied by three
clergymen, and escorted by a guard. A con
siderable crowd fo'lowed to witness the exe
cution.
He was a native of Hancock county, Va.,
born in 182V, brought up by pious Presbyte
rian parents, who now reside in South-west
ern Missouri. A good portion ot his life had
been spent in Fleming county, Ky. He had
no family, but was engaged to be married du
ring this month.
He said be was induced te attempt the
stealing of the engine under promise of a
large reward by the fed’ls, and the privilege
of smuggling through from the North $i,000
worth of goods per month ; that he did not
intend to burn the bridges, but to take the
engine to the federals ; and that he was not
an enemy to the Confederate government or
people.
He seemed to be very penitent—was com
posed till he came on the scaffold, when a
slight tremor was perceptible.
These statements were made by Rev. Mr.
Scott, at his request. Rev. Mr. Conyers of
fered up a feeling prayer. Rev. Mr. Connor
administered a few seasonable words of
counsel. The three then took leave of him
and he was launched into eternity.
Thus ended the life cf this daring adven.
turer, who, according to his own confession,
was playing into the hands of both parties
in this war to make gain—always, however,
in the confidence of the enemy ; but who was
convicted of being a spy.
Mr. Soctt believes he was not a man of
much ability- had but little cultivation, and
was victimized by shrewder men than him
self.
DIED,
At Tate s Bpring, Tennessee, on Wednes
day last, William-A. Chisolm, of this oity.
Mr. C. was a native of Elbert county, but
was brought up in Newton county, and re
sided many years in Coiambus. He moved
to this city in 18o7. He was a man of great
energy of character, and strictly honest in
all his dealings. He had been afflicted far
two or three years; and as a last resort,
sought for some healing virtne in the waters
of Tate’s Springs ; but in a few short days
after his departure from home, he died. He
was buried in this city yesterday.
