1X iiTi.i;it. —The Yankee women have
found a liero suited to (heir tastes iu Ihe
person ot Beast. Uutler. He appears to
be a. man after their own hearts, lie is
decidedly the first in the hearts of the
Yankee women. He [appears to be the
Adonis of Yankeedont—a veritable Fal
sfnff, though a thousand times more for
tunate. His enormities in New-Orleans
have called down upon his head the exe
cralions of mankind; ihe world over
Europe stood appalled at. Ihe fiendish
enormity of his crimes; members of Par
liament, deemed it. in bad taste even to
refer to.his brutalities ; but at the North,
the land ot Free-lovc-ism, where women
hold political .conventions ; the land of
spirit-rappings and supernal revelations;
(he land claimed to be the brains of the
once United States, and the conscience
of the New World, Butler is the idol of
•Dose whose sex he has spared no pains
to degrade.
Yankkh UxitoTATio.NS.- Bate North
ern -papers express great confidence in
the expedition against Charleston and
Savannah. The New York Herald says,
“nothing can be more certain than the
litter destruction of the rebels, not only
at Charleston, but also in front of Vicks
burg.” The Louisville Journal says of
the expeditionmgainst Vicksburg: “If
we succeed, we shall t hen be able to
push our forces in sober earnest and to
better purpose.” Forney, of the Phila
delphia press, remarks, that “we will
soon put such a spider in Beauregard’s
dumpling at Charleston, as that person
never dreamed of before.” Greeley,
(whom everybody knows,) thinks “suc
cess at Charleston would" enable us to
snaxi our finger in the face of Europe.”
So they have all said a hundred times
before, and “nobody was hurt.”
The Engagement at llaktsville,
Mo.—We find in the Delta, of the 12th,
some accounts of this action, foiight move
than a month ago. The Yankees claim
that with 800 men and two guns, they
engaged and repulsed 6,000 men with
five guns, losing nine killed and thirty
five wounded, and inflicting upon the
Confederate force a toss of many of their
bravest officers, among whom they enu
merate Brig. Gen. Emmet McDonald,
Cols. Thompson and Hinkle, Major
Kiri ley and Caps. Turpin, a Captain
and two Lieutenants besides, killed on
the field, Colonel Porter mortally wound
ed (since dead,) and three Captains bad
ly wounded. The total Confederate loss
is estimated at not, less than 300. The
Confederate force was commanded by
Gen. Mai-maduke.
Tn the midst of all this flourish it leaks
out, in the congratulatory address of the
Yankee General, Fifz Henry Warren,
dated January 15th, that, the Abolition
ists fell hack, though he glosses it over in
true McClellan style. When the truth is
known it will turn out that our boys met
them in about, equal numbers and whip
ped them.
Ei.bf.rt County, Ga.— lt is respect
fully suggested that this county pass an
ordinance of secession, and that it ap
point Judge Thomas, Provisional Presi
dent. There seems no other mode
whereby the liberties of the citizens of
that infant republic, and the interests of
“State Rights,’f fi]>- expounded by Judge
Thomas, can be preserved.
Personal—“ Walker Light Infant
ry.”—Here is what, the Colonel of the
39th Ala. Ikegt. says of our young friend,
and correspondent “T. J. C.,” now at
home on recruiting service, taken- from
a private letter to a friend ift Harbour
county, Alabama, and published in the
“Clayton (Ala.) Banner.’
“Every officer and man of ( lompany 11,
“Walker Light Infantry,” at ihe battle
of Murfreesboro’, acted witli ihe greatest
gallantry and coolness. 1 had occasion,

Caleb Cushing.
This man is reported to have said, in
a late meeting at Boston, the object of
which was lo lake into consideration the
best plan for settling Florida with Yan
kees —
“The Question had frequently been
asked him, ‘how will you govern Hie
rebel States, if you conquer them V- -
He thought if they were whipped, tlie
rebel States would give up, as many
others had done before .them. The* pro
per way to secure this result was by ear
nestly supporting tlur Government of the
country, and lending it every aid lo put
down the.rebellion. We had failed thus
far by the failure to recognize the black
element in the South, and the white loy
al element as those to be first consulted
in establishing the policy of the coun
try. We should have consulted the wishes
of these people, instead of listening to
the soft blandishments of such men as
Wickliffe, of Kentucky, or Governor
Stanley, of.North Carolina, who, in his
opinion, were just as ready as Jefferson
Davis to cut our throats. [Applause.]
If it be necessary to bury three hundred
thousand slaveholders to save twenty-five
millions of men, let the slaveholders lie
buried by all means. [Applause.] A
rebel has no right lo his life, to his pro
perly, or to liberty. That is the plain
law. I.ct us, therefore, carry it out. —
If not, what is to become of the loyal
men of the South? It was nothing to
him who was put in tlie place of the
slaveholder—a black man or a white.—
[Applause.] There was nothing to pre
vent. the operatives of Lancashire or the
Germans from participating in this move
ment. [Applause.] Those who in Eu
rope are complaining that their opera
tives are unemployed should send their
laborers here, and we will give them
land in abundance and enough to do.—-
[Applause.”]
This man Cushing was, but a short
time ago, the most Southern of all the
Southerners not only in Boston, but iu
North America. Mr. Yancey, or Presi
dent Davis, could not. match his fiery zeal
in the Southern cause. In a speech
made in Boston shortly after the election
of Lincoln, he denounced Senator- Wil
son and t he whole Abolition party of the
North, ascribingtp them all the.evil that
had befallen the country, and professing
an earnest wish to grind them into pow
der with the heel of his bool, bong be
fore this he had been so loud in his, pro
fessions of attachment, to the South and
its institutions, that Ire was regarded by
her as ihe warmest friend she had north
of Mason’s and Dixon’s. He liad been
much in tbe South —had been received
and entertained with the greatest hos
pitality wherever he went—ami had al
ways expressed himself delighted to the
point of ecstacy with his entertainers,
their country, and their institutions.—
lie had held office under one Southern
President, and been made a General in
the Mexican war by another. lie now
acts according to his instinct—as a Yan
kee, and it would be as unreasonable to
blame a rattlesnake for biting as him for
turning upon his friends. He cannot
help it. It is his nature as a Yankee,
to be governed by expediency in all the
transactions of life, and to take thought
of principle-only so far as it may be
consistent with interest. That interest,
just now, can be best subserved by sup
porting the wise and humane policy of
his Government, which consists in excit
ing Southern slaves to insurrection
against their masters. Let not the South
ern admirers of Caleb feel chagrined.—
While advising blood and carnage, he is
but seeking some snug office for himself.
We doubt whether Judas Iscariot was
really a Jew. lie must have been a
Yankee. At lea st, there arc very few of
this breed who would hesitate to sell
their master, and throw it! their worth
less souls ns a make-weight. Caleb
would willingly see flic blood of 300,000
men shed, provided lie could lurii a pen
ny by it, and provided also, (hat. he were
exposed to no danger i.i iho fiheddln.e of
it.— Rich. Dispatch.
The Army of the Potomac Disloyal
and Dangerous;—The Washington cor
respondent of the Chicago Times writes
as follows about the Grand Army of.tlie
Potomac. The recent intelligence re
garding this army corroborates his state
ment :
It is now statejJ, and I make the state
ment on the authority of the New York
Times, that Gen. Ilalleck thinks the
Army of the Potomac disaffected, dan
•n-crous and disloyal. He even effects to
ignore the existence of tiiat army any
longer. “Army of the Potomac!” he
repeated ti few days ago to a gentleman
who had used that phrase. “The Army
of the Potomac has ceased to exists”
And he meant by that to express what
he believed to be the truth. His jiro
gramruc now- is, or was a few days ago,
for the remnant of that army to be bro
ken up and scattered. .Seigol was t«
guard Washington; franklin was to
•guard the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad;
Hooker was to join Foster in North Car
olina; and Sumner was to join Hunter
at Charleston.
Such was the programme to v.-hich the
President had agreed a few days ago.
But the vacillating characterofthat weak
man has passed into, a proverb. Burn
side, aided by the radicals in Congress,
lias persuaded the President that there
is a chance now- that Fredericksburg
can be taken, and orders were issued lo
that effect on the 18ifi instant. Oil the
291 Jt Burnside issued his address lo Ids
troops, telling, them that he was about to
lead them against the ftu-iny, and the
columns were tlien put in motion at
once.
At that moment, however, the win
dows of heaven were opened, the rains
descended iri torrents, the Hoods came,
the winds blew with a terrific vehemence,
and the Rappahannock rose to an unusu
al height. The storm which eusued will
long be remembered for its terrible ef
fects. So fearful, indeed, was its vio
-1 lence, and so wide spread its influence,
j that for a whole day (21st) no through
I trains could be run between here and
{NO. 174*
New York. The storm subsided on the
22d, but it left, the Rappahannock fear
fully sw'ollcn, and thcroads literally im
passable. It would seem that the ele
ments forbade a repetition of the Fred
ericksburg massacre.

■Before the Court of Impiiry on Me
Dowell, iu Washington, the following
letter from Lincoln to McClellan was
read. It deserves attentive perusal and
perpetual preservation :
Washington, April 9, 1802.
To Major General McClellan:
My Dear Sir: Your dispatches, com
plaining that you arc not properly sus
tained, while they do not offend me, pain
me very much. Blenker’s division was
withdrawn before you left here, aud you
know the.pressure under which- 1 did it,
and as 1 thought, acquiesced in it, certain
ly not wit hout reluctance. After you left,
I ascertained that less than 20,000 un
organized men, without a field battery,
wore all you designed should be left for
Ihe defense of Washington and .Manas
sas Junction, and part of this even was
to go to General Hooker’s old position,
((on. Ranks’ corps, once designed for
Manassas Junction, was divided and tied
up on the line of Winchester and Stras
hurg. and could not leave that position
without again exposing the Upper Poto
mac and the Baltimore and Ohio Rail
road.
this presented, or would present,
when McDowell and Sumner shoujd he
gone, a great, temptation for the enemy
t.o turn back from the Rappahannock
and sack Washington. My explicit di
rections that Washington, sustained by
•he judgment of all tlie commanders of
corps, should bo left secure, had been
entirely neglected. It was precisely this
ibat drove me lo detain McDowell. I
do not forget tliat 1 was satisfied with
your arrangement to leave Banks pt. Ma
nassas Junction. But when that arrange
ment was broken up, and nothing was
substituted for it, of course 1 was not
satisfied. I was constrained to suhsti
lute something for it myself. And now
allow me to ask you, do you really think
I could permit the lint- from Richmond
via .Manassas Junction to this city to ho
entirely open, except what resistance
could be presented by Inss than 20,000
unorganized troops ? This is a ques
tion which the country will not allow uic
to evade. *
There is a curious mystery about the
number of troops now with you. I tele
graphed you on the Otli, saying that you
had over 100,000 with you. I had just
obtained from the Secretary of War, a
statement, taken, ns lie said, from your
own returns, making 108,000 then wilfi
you aud en route to you. You now say
you will have but 85,000 when all eii
route shall have reached you. Jlow can
this discrepancy of $15,000 he accounted
for? As to Gen. Wool’s command 1 un
derstand that it is doing precisely what
a like number of your own would have
to do if that command was away. I
suppose Hie whole force which has gone
forward lo you lias reached [you by this
time: ami, if so, 1 think it is the pre
cise lime tor you to strike a blow.
By delay, the enemy will readily gain
on you : that is, he will gain faster by
fortifiqalions ami reinforcements than
you can by reinforcements alone. And
once more let me tell you, it is indispen
sable to you tliut you strike a.blow. 1
am powerless to help. This you will do
me tho justice to remember, 1 was always
opposed to gbingdowu the Bay itt seat'eh
of a field, instead of fighting at or near
Manassas, us only shifting and not sur
mounting a difficulty; that wc would
find the same enemy and the same or
equal intrenchments at either place.
The country will not fail to note—is
noting now—that the present hesitation
to move upon an intrenched enemy is
but the story of Manassas repeated.
1 bog leave to assure you that I have
never written or spoken to you in great
er kindness of feeling than now, nor
witli a fuller purpose to sustain you so
far as in my most anxious judgment 1
consistently can. But you must act.
Yours, very truly,
A Lincoln.

Instructive Incident.
Helena, Jan. 18.—Since the, Ist of
January the children of Ham are having
a hard time of it. They are free, with
no one to care for them, nothing to live
on, half clothed and worse fed. God only
knows what will become of the poor crea
tures.*
Col. Bussey, post, commandant, is a
true gentleman and well liked. Prompt,
courteous and business like, lie is a good
man tor the position. Every day negroes
are coming into the camp with their
little bundles,'claiming protection nnd
food. Thursday afternoon the follpwing
actual event took place:
J. B. Pillow, brother of the rebel Gen
eral, who has a beautiful plantation a
few miles from Helena, and who was
worth half a million of dollars previous
the war,’ canto into camp, through the
lines, with 183 negroes, of both sexes,
and all ages. At the head of his servants,
who followed in single file, lie walked to
the Colonel’s headquarters, where the ‘
following conversation took place: i
“Good morning, sir.”
“Good morning, sir.’.’
“Where is the f’omniandunt ot the
post?”
“Before you, sir.”
“Well Colonel, here is my small
charge, in the sliajie of free American
citizens of African descent, ifbich 1 de
liver over to you. « Here is a correct list
of.their names, ages, sexes and occupa
tion.-. Please send them to the President,
with my compliments, and say to him
that, if he wishes anything else under
my roof, on my grounds, or in my pock
ets, all he has tn do is to ask aiul re
ccivc.”
“Mr. Pillow, I cannot receive these
people; I have no food for them -liavif
nothing for them to do—have not food
enough for our soldiers, hardly.”
“And 1 cannot usa them. 1 had bacon
to keep them, but it has been stolen; I
had corn, but it has been gobbled. Now,
I have nothing for them to eat, and, as
Lincoln has turned this army into a
nigger boarding housj, you will please
scat these people at your table.”
“But 1 have no such power.”
“Then give them work. If you tail to
manage them, I will teach you. The art
can be learned in about 30 years.” .
•I have nothing for them to do.”
•Nor have I. You will not see them
starve, I hope. lam a loyal man—have
been a prosperous one. but can no longer
care for these people. You have surely
some use for them. Nearly nil trades
are here represented among the men.
The women you can find use for some
where?”
“Well, I can’t take them.”
“My God! what will they live on? Can
yen sell me corn and bacon? They will
starve unless you do.”
“No, I cannot.”
“And you cannot keep them?”
“No.”
“Well, God only will b«
cotno of them.” "
At the head of his old servants he left,
aud the free ptoplo followed him back,
crying and wondering what next will
