punished, and losing over 1,000 men.
It i unfortunate that we do uot guard our
outposts with a far greater force than usually
occupy them, and that such expi ditions are
not supported by at least a corps or two, ma
king assurance doubly sure.
The object of the expedition was to dislodge
tho enemy from Biown’s Ferry, and it seems no
idea was had of the enemy's oveiwl elming
force, so that instead ot surprising the enemy,
we were entrapped ourselves.
The enemy now holds the possession of the
Nashville <t Chattanooga road up to Brown's
Ferry, within three miles of Cbatianooga,
where they have a pontoon bridge which ena
bles them to reinforce their troops in Lookout
Valley. This gives them a decided advantage
in op i.ing a nearer communication for oltlain
ing supplies, as explained in my last letter, and
may induce them to attempt the possession of
Lookout Mountain, which would, incase of suc
cess, give them a clear road to Chattanooga.—
But it is not to be supposed that we will remain
contented with this failure, and leave the ene
my' in undisputed possession of Lookout Val
ley'. There will no doubt be another effort yet
jnade to dislodge the enemy.

Joss of the blockade steamer near Wil
mington lately was caused by a traitor on
board. The vessel had neariy got through the
blockading squadron without discovery, and in
live minutes more would have been safely out
of range of the enemy’s guns, when some
traitor among the crew rang the steamer's bell,
thus giving the Yankees the alarm, and indica
ting in the darkness the exact direction in
which they should open fire. This they did
with such tatnl accuracy that three men on
the deck of the Venus were killed by the first
shot. Two other shots successively struck the
vessel. At the moment of firing, signals were
made to all the other ships of the fleet, several
ol which moved rapidly across the mouth of
the river to intercept the Venus, and nothing
was left to the captain but to run her upon the
beach. The vessel had no sooner struck than
she was surrounded by the launches of the
blockaders, and the passengers and crew were
descending one side of tho ship as the Yankees
were swarming over the other. Twenty-two
only made their escape. Twenty-eight were
taken prisoners by the enemy. The fate of the
Venus should be a warning to the captains oi
Government vessels to lie exceedingly careful
in the selection of the crews, especially in ship
ping men at Bermuda and Nassau. The Yan
kees, well enough convinced by this time that
they cannot effectually close the port of Wil
mington hv their blockade, are resorting to
strategy to compass the capture of our vessels.
Bermuda and Nassau are overrun with the
agents ot Seward, aud these men will lom«io
opportunity of getting their hirelings on board
Confederate vessels, agreeing to pay them
enormous sums to betray the ship o.i which
they take service into the hands of the bloek
nders.
A fight has occurred at the Warm Springs in

The Southern Recorder says there are but
four negroes implicated in conduct that will
authorize their being put on trial befolethe

Thus perish all who insult Southern sentiment
and honor, and degrade themselves by a mock
elevation of the negro. It appears the Yankee
lieutenant tvas accompanied by a battalion of
negro soldiers, and not four or five, as tbe
Northern papers stated. After Col. Sotheron
shot the lieutenant, his son tired a double-barrel
gun into llie negroes, and they, dropping their
guns, ran like a dock of black sheep. This en
titled the gentleman to escape in a carriage to

Henry Ward Beecher, is speaking in Europe
on American affairs—the Northern side, of
course, lie draws full audiences, and accord-’

most •‘enthusia-tic applause.” At the close of
one pf his addresses, Mr. Henderson, a leading
member of the Scotch Presbyterians aud a
prominent representative of the ant-slavery
parly of England, said to Mr. Beecher : -Hail
we been told at the beginning that the war was
to abolish slavery, the great mass of the oeople
would have cordially sympathized with the
• ause ol the North, and the feeling in Fngland
would have been veiy different from .wliat it is
at present.” Beecher’s addresses are editorial

Tm; Late Frost at Cantos, Miss. -A cor
respondent of the Jackson Mississippian gives'
the following sketch "of the late engagement at
Canton:
On the 14th Oct., scouts reported loTionera
Jackson that a largji force of the enemy was
crossing Big BI k at Messenger's ferry, and
were advancing towards Biownxvitle. telling
citizens they were going to Canton. The Gen
eral at ome . determined to concentrate his
command and give them battle. By the 15t!i
they hail advanced through Brownsville Gen
eral Mart Adams commanding Ist brigade
skirmishing heavily with them. On the Kith,
our fincts being in position. Hie enemy com
mented their advance, and were inti at the
bridge over “-trait Fence creek. Goner,tl Jack
son ordered General Adams to tear up the
bridge, lemove his horse to a position out ot
range of the artillery tire, and to lipid Ids po
sition— that Colonel Logan would assist him.
This he did ail day long. The enemy succeeded
in -eiossimr the creek four times, and were gal
lantly driven back each time.
This fight will always be reu eiuhered as one
of tin: most hotly contested ever made lay cav
alry; our position could not be flanked, except
on another roail. aud the enemy had to move
up face to face with us. During the hottest
lire, General Jackson rode out in the open field
in the most, exposed condition, where he met
General Wirt Adams,'directing the movements
of his brigade. As the General approached;
General Adams raised his hat, the General un
covered, and these brave; noble commanding
officers stood some moments ill conversation,
the cannon balls tearing up tM- ground arott- and
them. General Adams remarked that his
brigade and Logan’s men v.vfe standing up.
well.” Tip General, replied, "lie Imtlseen no
better lighting during .the war.” ltidimr off a
lew paces, lie appioached King's oeiehraled
Missouri battery, each party trying to excel;
one of Site enemy 's shots passing close by him,
broke n wheel belonging to one of our rifle
guns, .last then three long, hearty cheers were 1
given by them, which sounded above the roar
ot their guns; for "Gen. Jackson, the cavalry
Stonewall of this war !”
At. nightfall the enemy fell hack, having only
advanced two miles iii iwenty-l'our hours. Our
forces slept in line of battle. At sunrise on
the morning of the 17th the enemy again com
menced’their advance on another roail, to com
mand which, General Jackson had placed Gen.
Whitfield's Texas br gade, supported by Col.
Log in. their advance approached, Croft's
Georgia baftery opened on them with their Na
poleon guns, and the plunging shot was seen
to open gaps iu their ranks, when tho whole
line gave way, and reforming, moved by the
ri/.lit flank; they then deployed lor hours,
•when discovering f at the Texas brigade'would
be flanked, Gen. Jackson ordered Gen. Whit
field to fallback to another position.
As the enemy would drive us off one hill we
would fall back, and make a stand upon anoth
er, each time driving back their advance, and
compelling them to form a line of battle, even
thicket and copse of woods was anilmsbej, and
thus they were only permitted to advance five
miles on the third day. About 5 o clock, p. in.,'
a strong position was selected for t-hd Texas
■Brigade an.l Logan's men. which the enemy,
after shelling furiously, charged three times,
slowly gave way. On the morning of be 18ih,
they again attacked our posilion,.and finding it
too strong, commenced tailing, back rapidly.
General Jackson ordered Whitfield and Logan
to pursue and attack them, and all day long
our victorious columns were firing into them,
and burying them on Big Black.
Their retreat towards tbe.last became a race,
and thus ended the second grand raid against
Canton. Our loss is about fifty killed, wound
ed amt missing.
