BEAUREGARD’S LETTER
further From the Fleet.
&OG.. &SC.
Richmond, Nov. 7.
The Whig of this morning publishes the
following:
Centre ville, (
Within hearing Enemy’s Guns, Nov. 3.)
Editors Whig:
Gentlemen: —My attention has just been
called to an unfortunate controversy, now go
ing on, relative to the publication of a Syn
opsis of my report of the Battle of Manassas.
None can regret this more than I do. The
President is the sole judge of when and what
parts of a report of the Commanding Officer
may be made public. I, individually, do not
object to delaying its publication as long as the
War Department may think proper and nec
essary to the success of our cause. Meanwhile,
I entreat my friends not to trouble themselves
about refuting slanders and calumnies aimed
at me.
Alcibiades on a certain occasion resorted to an
extiaordinay method to occupy the minds of his
traducers. Let then that synopsis answer the
same purpose for me in this instance, If certain
minds cannot understand the difference between
patriotism, the highest civic virtue, and office
seeking, the lowest civic occupation, I pity them
from the bottom of my heart. Suffice it to say
that I prefer the respect and esteem of my country
to the admiration or envy of the world.
I hope far the sake of our cause and country,
to be able, with the as istanee of t a kind Provi
dence, to_ answer my calumniators, with new
victories over our national enemies, but I have
nothing to ask of the country, Government or
my friends, except to afford me all the aid they
can in the great struggle we are now engaged up
on. I am not, and never expect or desire to be,
a candidate for any civil office in the gift of the
people or Executive, The aim of my ambition,
after having cast my mite in defence of our sac
red cause, and assisted to the best of my ability
in securing our rights and independence as a na
tion, is to retire to private life; my means per
mitting, never again to le«.ve my home, unless
to fight anew the battles of my country.
Very respectfully,
Your most ob’t servant,
G. T. BEAUREGARD.
Richmond, Nov. 7.
This morning papers say Gen Lee left yester
day charged with the command of the coast de
fence south of Virginia.
Breckinridge has been appointed Brig. Genl.
Savanmah, Nov. 7.
The steamer Resolute of the Confederate fleet
came up at 11 o’cltck last night to coal, and
brought correct particulars of the operations at
Port Royal to date. It appears that the report
of one Feu steamer aground and another disabled
was false.
Monday afternoon Tatnall with his fleet went
within a mile of the Federal squadron and en
gaged them nearly an hour, until they came with
in range of the guns at the Port, when he retired
and allowed the latter to open on them. The
engagement lasted until late in the evoning. The
result it is impossible to ascertain.
Commodore again sallied oul to a point
above £ths of a mile from the enemy; enemy
fired rifled shot and seells, which fell about us
in great profusion. Two shots passed through
the Savannah without serious damage to the
vessel. .
Nobody on boaa injured.
Parties at the Fort say that seven shots from
our fleet took effect in the Federal vessels, the
latter coming in closer, our fleet retired.
Yesterday all was quiet.
It is reported that the Federals were landing
at Hunting Island yesterday.
Firing at Port Royal now heard; commenced
at 7/2 o’clock; warm work anticipated.
The Richmond Dispatch has intelligence
from Cotton Hill, that Floyd commenced can
nonading the enemy on Friday last, and stop
ped their transportation, killed a number of
horses, disabled wagons, and killed 29 of the
enemy. Floyd controls the road over which
the enemy transport their supplies.
There is a rumor, not generally credited,
that the Federals crossed Kanawha river at
L creek, to cutoff Col. Jenking cavalry;
Jenkins informed Gen. Floyd if he would send
infantry reinforcements, that he would cut the
enemy’s forces off, which, was done, and Jen
kins killed and captured them all, said to be
six hundred.

AN APPEAL TO THE CITIZENS OF GEORGIA.
In behalf of a noble body of men, the First
Regiment of Georgia Regulars, I make this ap
peal. This regiment was formed in February
last,and have performed all the duties of soldiers.
All the hardships, struggles, and privations,
they have submitted to willingly, wanting no
other reward than the confidence of the trne sons
of Georgian Through the hot months of June
and July, they held Fort Pulaski and Tybee Is
land, both near Savannah. Ou the 20th July
this Regiment, having been ordered to the seat
of war in Virginia, left Savannah, and landed
here on the 25th. Now, men and women of
Georgia, we ask for simple justice. We are not
jealous of others, nor would we be, but whilst
every other regimeut that Georgia has sent
forth, has been provided for, these Georgians,
isolated as it were, have been neglected.
Not a single garment have they received. —
This regiment enlisted, Is this the reason they
have been left to provide for themselves ? Is this
the manner in which the truest men of Georgia
should be treated ? These men have rushed in
defence of their loved sunny South, with a pa
triotism unparalled, willing to shed their last
drop of blood in defending a just cause, yet; whar
has been their reward ? Not a word of hope o
oommendation have they received, but, like a par
cel of sheep which have lost their shepherd, they
have been left to pursue their own oourse—to go
in a state of absolute nudity ! There is not a
oounty in Georgia but has a representative here.
Then, reader, perhaps you have a loved son, or
brother here ? Have you no friendship for him ?
Have you discarded him ? Then lam not speak
ing to you ! Listen Georgians ! This regiment
has been here three months, and have marched
miles over rugged mountains, through unbroken
forests, without a murmur, passed days without
a mouthful to eat, and often without water,
willingly, to vindicate the of a State on
which all their affections lie ! The State of their
birth ! And still nothing is done for them. This
regiment has been lauded by our honored Presi
dent, praised by our gallant Toombs; said the
latter two days ago, as he rode down our line*
“Georgia look3 to you, and to you alone, for
vindication of her honor.” These words inspired
new vigor—greater enthusiasm in the hearts of
the regiment ; how much more then, would more
substantial praise fill them with enthusiasm ?
Then, citizens of our time honored State, lend
them a helping hand. Do not exclude them
from their home, as it were. Send clothing of
any sort.
Very respectfully,
Friend to she Fibst Reg’t Ga., Regulars.
Sick Soldiers. —Since the 20th and 21 at reg -
iments have been in camp, near Griffin, the mea
sles and typhoid feavor have broke out among
them, * There are now over two hundred on the
sick list, and several have died. A good portion
of the sick hare been brought to Griffin, and as
well cared for as circumstances will permit. Two
large buildings have been set apart as hospitals,
and the sick receive the daily attentions of tho
benevolent ladies of Griffin.— Grifin, Union, Ist.
Col. Francis W. Capers, Superintendent of
the Georgia Military Academy, at Marietta,
and late of this city, says the Charleston Cou
rier, has been appointed a Brigadier General of
the Georgia forces, and will probably be as
signed to a department near Darien.
The Bull Run Retreat Explained.— A
Northern paper has discoverd the cause of the
retreat of the Yankee army at Bull Run. It
says : “When the battle was at its hottest point,
and nearly won to our side, there came word
that there was two vacancies in the New York Cus
tom house. Hence the stampede of the leading
officers. The men followed.
Macon Telegraph says the election
in that city passed off very quielly with the
following result:
