The days of political differences and
party feuds are gone, and only one spirit
animates us all. Tbe invaders are at our
gates and they must be repelled. 1 ou
have, doubtless, before this, read of the
glorious victory achieved by our troops a
few davs ago at Uetliel Church. J have
seen and conversed with eye witnesses of
the battle. The Yankees ran away like
whipped curs, leaving for over live miles all
their muskets, canteens, knapsacks, etc.,
on the ground. It was a perfect route, a
complete defeat. The moral effect pro
duced by that exploit on the pari of the
troops is not easily to be estimated, The
Southern volunteers are all awake and
“ea^erfor rlie frav,” and Richmond looks
liken "champ do Mars,” so many soldiers

When the Augusta Arsenal was taken
bv Gov. Brown, it contained about "22-000
stands of arms. This was immediately
after the secession of the State, and be
fore. her connection with the
Confederacy. Site was then sov
and independent of the world. Gov.
Brown, some time after tlie arsenal was
taken, when lie had a perfect right to
control it, ordered out of tlie Arsenal be-
| tween seven and eight- tliousaud stands of
| the arms which he found in it. Tart of
! these were distributed at the time among
I volunteer companies, and part placed in
j tlie Arsenals at Savannah and Milledge-
ville. All tbe balance of the guns were

In the editorial correspondence of the
New York Times, written from Fortress
Monroe, Ya. on the 4th of July, by Hon.
Henry J. Raymond, its editor, a descrip
tion of the Fort and the surrounding
camps is given. Speaking of the village
which has been abandoned to the Hessians,
he says:
It is a very pretty country town, with
a fine hotel looking out upon the river, a
good military school, three or four church
es, &c. On the day after his arrival at
the Fortress, General Rtitler crossed over
this bridge with one of the Massachusetts,
Regiments on a reconiioisnnce, and this
seems to have completed the terror which
bad previously almost paralyzed the town.
The people binned this bridge and fled..
I procured a boat and crossed over to
the “deserted village.” A stout follow
rowed us across, who said his master had
gone to Yorktown, and he was not anxious
to have him return. Of the 2,0u0 ot 2,500
inhal itants of this town, not twenty five
remained. 1 he rest took all the. valuables
they could carry away, packed tlie rest in
boxes, locked the doors and fled. It was
tlie most melancholy picture I bad ever
seen (fur soldiers had come over, broken
open tbe houses, rifled the boxes, carried
off tables, chairs, sofas, and whatever else
they could m ike useful, and wantonly
destroyed what they could not take away.
Passing through the deserted street. I saw
through an open door a woman seewping
a little shop. She said site had left town
with the rest, but thought she would come
hack to look after the few things she had
left. They had all disappeared. The
house had been broken open And every
thing in it carried away. This is the gen
eral story throughout the town. I heard
of three or four of our men who went into
a house, where were only an old man and
his wife, and when the latter refused to
tell them where they left their money,
they broke open tlie bureau end took S20
which they found tliere. In another in
stance a gang of men went into a house
occupied by a lady, a relative of Com
modore Barron, who had packed up the
family pictures and other relics and put
them away. They broke open the boxes,
threw the contents out into the street, and
completely stripped the house. At another
house, after taking away what they want
ed, they empted jars of sweet-meats which
they poured into tlie river. At the house
of a Sirs. Carp, they-smashed to pieces all
the glass ware they could find, much of
which was very valuable Passing tlnongh
tho village, 1 carte to the old church, said
to be the nlde-t now standing in tlie coun
try. . It stands a little hack from the road,
and is surrounded by the gaveyard; just
in the rear of it, ar.d close bv the wails,
was tlie freshly made grave of a child, with
slight wo >den frame around it to protect it
from desecration. Some of our troops had
placed an iron tod across the frame, upon
which they had hung a kettle ov.rg fire:
built upon the grave.

stances of similiaroutrages. Is it surptis-
ing that the people here look upon us as
vandals and barbarians? By- no possible
process coul 1 we contrive to make them

the Union than in this way. Genera!

ferate States together He now has
enough to make several bundled tons of
powder, which he has tendered to the
President for the Confederacy. All the
powder and ball, shot and shell, and all
the heavy guns put upon Fort Pulaski to
secure it against attack, have been furn
ished by Gov. Brown and not by tbe Con
federacy. When the President was in
great need of cavalry arms in Virginia,
soon after he went tliere, application was
made to Gov. Brown, who loaned the

of our guns as if we had been in a fort of tbe
amplest dimensions.
Of the fortifications superadded here by Gen
Beauregard to those of nature, it is, of course, not
proper lor me to speak The genera! reader, ill
tact, will have a sufficiently precise idea of them

\ the passage of tbe ordinance which turned

truthful. The last one of them has been

unteers, except such of them as are now in
the hands of the soldiers in the Fourth
Brigau at Camp McDonald, and they have

State, or that he has failed to get some,
office, or in some other way his personal
interests have not been served.

Nothing is talked or thought of now but thf
late sanguinary engagement in Virginia—a batth
that lias no parallel in American history, whethei
we regard the forces engaged or the destruction o
human life. The former are reported at 75,001
on the Confederate and 100,000 on the Federal side
We think this an over-estimate. The forces o
Beauregard and Johnston constituted our entin
strength, which could hardly have exceeded 50.
(100; whilst tlie union of Patterson's and Me
Howell’s columns, reinforced, it is probable, fron
Washington, amounted, possibly, to 75,000. A
these figures we have nothing lika it in our histo
ry, and tlie accounts that have come to hnnd, im
perfect as they are, show that the metal of iieroe?
was to be found on both sides American bioot
and gallantry showed itself, and we have the re
suit in the ensanguined field and mangled corpse?
of. perhaps, thousands.
Beauregard's rapid discernment of the true sit
nation of affairs, and the celerity with which li
combined Johnston’s forces with his own, estab
lisb Ins reputation as one of the first military,
men of his time. Johnston, contributing to tlii?
result, stands squarely by his side. The heavies’
fire of the enemy, we are told, was directed
against the wing under his command, and the ter
rible loss of his men is evideuce alike of their own
gallantry and the stern resolution of tiieir com
mander. Perhaps, after all. tho unequal number?
would liave overpowered them, had it not beet
for tiiat grand and t.imely movement of our gal
lant President, who took charge of the centre
and, by pressing forward, diverted the fury of th?
storm.
The assault upon and capture of the celebrated
Sherman’s Battery, by Genera! Gariaud, with hi?
intrepid Virginians; was an affair brilliant as atn
to be found iu the annals of war. It was a terri
ble blow to the enemy aud decided the fortune
of tlie day.
Our city yesterday was agonized by conflicting
emotions—joy-for the triumph of our arms, ant.
anguish for the terrible cost of the victory. Tin
tall ot noble, chivalrous Bartow carried a pang o'
sorrow to every heart, while numerous liousehold.-
wero plunged in sorrow for dear departed ones, oi
agonized w itli suspense and fear lest, they too havi
lost a son or brother. Bnt a part of the battle
held lias been exposed to view us we write, ano
even that little brings morning to a thousand
hearts.
A doting father, as he rode in from tlie country
yesterday, was met by a messenger who reporte<
to him ’he sad news of the death of a favorite son
"How and where did he die!” was tiie inipulsivi
interrogatory. “Under Beauregard, at Manassas
fighting against odds of two to one” was the re
ply. “And how went the day’"was immediate
ly ejaculated. “Theenemy were route*! and put
to flight,” was Ihe response “Thank God!” said
the father—“Then lam satisfied—I give up my
boy.”
This touching incident we commend to every
heart that has been bereaved in this terrible but
righteous war. Ltt them take tlie example of thi?
patriotic father to iieart. They love their soil?
and brothers no more than he—and while human
itv most foci, the promptness of natural affection
must lie obeyed, let them banish all excess ot
grief in the cheering rt-ffoction that their belovei
ones have nobly perished in defence of their coun

correspondent says: ‘,1 have just made an inte
resting visit to the famous Tredegar Works lu re,
where they are making cannon shell. About
six cannon are completed weekly - Some are of
enormous size and would throw a ball weighing
one hundred and five pounds. There are four
styles of cannon cast here, viz: the Columbiad,
iheDalilgren, the old Port gun, and field piece—
the lattet afterwards rifled, and having a hall with
a lend band about it. At the Tredegar Works, I
am told, were made the guns comprising the
the masked battery which did such execution in the
fight of Great Bethel. Lincoln, of course, knows
all about these Tredegar Works for they have
been making guns for the U. S. for many years.”
Arknnsians Bushing into Missouri.—The Wash
ington Telegraph, noticing tlie expected early de
parture of six companies from that place for Mis
souri, and the organization of many others, say*:
Arknnsians are rising in legions at the call of
McCulloch. Our sister cannot be held in forcible
subjugation hy federal minions. We said before,
that when Missouri gave us the cry of distress,
ten thousand men would be over the border.
They will be now! right soon. They are flocking
to ihe north, hastily impetuously, and burnging
with wroth. There is too much common blood
between Missouri and Arkansas to allow us to
look upon tier disgrace.

We find the annexed in tbe Vicksburg Whig of
Tuesday:
Mr. J. F Morrill, form»rly of this city, but now
living in Shreveport, passed through our city on
Saturday last, on his way to Tennessee, to obtain
machinery for putting in operation a tannery and
shoe manufactory on a large scale. There are,
we learn, very many hides of the best kind in tlie
Northwester part of Texas, left to rot because
they are so far fiom market These will now be
worked tip. aud ill this, as well as in many other
respects, Lincoln's war will boa benefit to the
country.
Mr. Morill informs us tiiat just before be left
Shreveport, he saw one steamer pas3 down Red
River with 500 sacks of fljur ou board, and vari
ous other lreight. such as cattle, sheep. He says
other boats were loading, and that large drov. s ol
cattle aud sheep were waiting transportation to
New Orleans.
The Democracy Against the War.—Our exchan
ges trout all portions of the free States show that
the Democracy are very generally giving their voi
ces against the unnecessary and unnatural civil
war. inaugurated by Seward, Lincoln, Giddings.
&c., for the invasion of sovereign States and the
abolition of slavety. The Democratic press of the
West is beginning to express itself very plainly
against tlie war, and so of the Democratic press ot
Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Connecticut Maine
and other States-—Concord (X. H.) Standard.
The Great Battle.—We learn that a wounded
soldier, who was in the battle on Sunday, passed
Kingsville, on his way home, yesterday. He is a
Frenchman, and has been through the Crimean
war. He said that in ail that war he never saw
sucli a battle. He speaks in glowing terms of
the charge of the V rgiuia regiment on Sherman's
battery, and says tiiat he saw the last ntan at these
guns fall.
He states that the slaughter of the eueniy must
have been immense, but thinks that our loss was
also heavy.—Columbia Guardian.
Important Berolulionary Pension Case.—Tor
some years past Peter Von Bukirk, of Washing
ton city, aged iff) veais, who has been upon the
revolutionary pension rolls as a private at $5 per
month for many years, has been prosecuting a
claim for arrearages ot pension as an aasistaut
forage master, which, if allowed, entitled him to
$50 per month instead of $5, the amount hereto
fore paid to him. His claim was more than once
rejt cted for want of testimony. Recently he has
found and presented the necessary testimony,
and on Tue day his claim was duly allowed, w th
