But at t .? an.-: time it is manifest on the slightest r :il-’".i .a. that the South must come out <.f the war successful and triumphant whether it lasts six month or six years. With the :n Ist intense malignity and hate towards the Southern people—with the fiendish desire raging in their hearts to annihilate and ut terly destroy us from the face of the earth, the mass of the Northern people are di-po-ed to stand at a safe distance arid set on their hire- ■ ling Hessians to ravage and desolate the S mth ] and murder our people. With here arid there ' men driven on by a t'ger thirst for blood, the bulk of their armies is made up of mercen aries—fighting for bread, for pay and plun der. Such men will not. cannot with sue cess meet our soldiers who tight for their homes and all that is dear to freemen. Our men go into fiat'le determined that th< y will have victory or meet death. Lincoln’s hire lings do not an 1 will not so fight. They have not the strong overpowering exertions that impel our soldiers to fight to the death. This single cause, without our other advantages will secure our triurnt h. Fourth of July.

If. as these papers state, w«: I w..re r- pulse 1 with but a loss d .'JO ,>r 40 kill el, every thinking man must say that we I were the most arrant Cowards on earth: Such | was not the ease. We fought bravely, and [ did not leave the field until after the num | her of killed and wounded proved to u- that ; further atti mpts would be destructive. We I had some 4,50<) men.

Our loss has been seycre, audit is an insult to tell us that we have been re- ; pulsed w ith 100 killed ami wounded. We have suffered too much from the incompe I tency of our officers, and do not wish to be insulted by lies of the press in reference to our want of courage.
