The New Rebel Steamer “No, 290.” -
According- to the following state
ment, furnished by the London cor
respondent of the Dublin Evening
Mail, the new “rebel” steamer “No.
200,” wiiich has just given the Tusca-
rora the slip, is an iron clad and a very
fjrmidable vessel:
She can steam from 10 to IS knots
an hour; is porfectly seaworthy; for
all practical purposes invulnerable,
and will prove to any vessel she may
encounter as formidable an antag
onist as our own Warrior, the boast of
the British navy. This is the “No.
290” as to whose whereabouts Union
cruisers have with reason betrayed
such anxiety. It had been known
for some time that a large and power
ful iron vessel was constructing at the
dockyard of Messrs. Laid & Birken
head ; but monsters of the deep are
so much the order of the day at that
establishment that no one troubled
his head much about this new produc
tion, or cared to remark the great
thickness of the plates which were be
ing used.
At thevery last moment the Federal
authorities seem to have had their
suspicions aroused, for the Tuscarora
was dispatched to keep watch in the
neighborhood of the dock where she
lay and the southern coast of Ireland
was also strictly watched. “No,”
290,” meanwhile, apprised of all that
was going on, dropped down the river
quietly one day, and steamed out into
the bay, nominally for her trial trip—
with a party of fadies and musicians
on board. Instead, however, of re
turning to her moorings at Birken
head, where she would have been
kept in durance vile by the Tuscarora,
she quietly landed her passengers,
avoiding Cork, Waterford, &c., in the
neighborhood of which she might have
heard of something not at all to her
advantage.
“No. 290” steamed round by
Londonderry and Conegal, and was
joined oil’the west cost of Ireland by
the steamer which had previously
sailed, having on board the armament
intended tor the “Ironsides.
A Rich Haul in the Chesapeake.—On
Friday night last, a Yankee steamer,
having some twelve or fifteen loaded
barges in tow, passed up the bay from
Fortress Monroe in a heave gale, and
upon reaching a point opposite the
counties of Mathew3 and Middlesex,
seven of the barges broke from their
two lines and were dashed ashore.—
The citizens next morning took pos
session of them, and captured nine Yan
kees who were thrown with them on
the shore, each of whom was armed
with a musket, and after the contents
of the boats were secured, they were
marched into a safer locality by Lieu
tenant Fitzhugh, of the Matthews
cavalry.
One of the barges contained one
hundred and thirty 1-3 inch shell, 100
Enfield rifles, 5,000 knapsacks, and
oilier articles. Two others were load
ed with wagons and harness. Anoth
er contained numerous linvoe ol'aAto
and engine tools, overcoats, baggage,
&c. Others contained tents and tent
poles eighteen boxes of haversacks,
(about 2,600 in each) and all sorts of
army equipments. The prisoners,
while in the custody of Lieut. Fit
zhugh, were under the belief that a
large force of “rebels” were in the
vicinity, and submitted docilely.—
They were tolled in admirably by
the astute Lieutenant.—Rich. Enq.
The First Georgia Regiment of Regu
lars.
We learn that this regiment took
a prominent part in the late bat
tles on the Plains of Manassas, and
suffered very severely in killed and
wounded. Our readers will remem
ber thabthis regiment for a time was
stationed on Tybee Island, and after
wards was removed to this city and
encamped near the Park, and then
ordered to Virginia. The regiment at
that time was under the command of
Colonel Williams, of Columbus, and
after his death Lieut. Col. Wm. J.
Magiil was appointed to the com
mand. The Regulars distinguished
themselves in the seven days battles
before Richmond, and had ever been
considered one of the best drilled and
most efficient corps in the Confeder
ate service. During the late battles
at Manassas, we lern that Major John
D. Walker was in command. The
regiment has been reduced to about
three hundred and fifty men, and came
out of the late battles with only about
sixty to answerat roll call. We have
not deen able to obtain full particulars
of the casualities but the following
private dispatch, received in Macon
yesterday, gives a fearful list of the
disasters to its officer:
Killed—Capt. John G. Patton,
Company F, of Habersham Count} 7 ,
and Lieut. Henrv Porter, Company E,
of Richmond County.
Severely Mounded—Major John D.
Walker of Scriven County; Lieut.
Joseph Blance, of Polk County ; Lieut.
Charles Wiley, of McIntosh County ;
Lieut, Pierce Horn, of Baldwin Coun
ty; Lieut. Seaborn Benning, of Colum
bus ; Lieut. Thos Burdell, of Burke
County ; Lieut. G. W. Anderson, of
Atlanta; and Lieut. Blount of Ma
con.
Slightly Wounded—Capt. Tomlinson
Fort, of Milledgeville; Capt. Miller
Grieve, of Milledgeville ; Lient. Bow-
dre, of Macon ; and Lieut. A. Ruther
ford, of (Columbus.
The regiment is reduced to sixty
men, so says our informant, who
thinks the above casualties do not cov
er the last days battle, which took
place on Saturday.
Sat. Xeics.
Most men have two hearts; it is the
fortune of the unlucky to knock at the
wrong one.
From the Richmond Examiner.
Finally'convinced of the impossibility
of European intervention, Southern feel
ing has taken a new departure, and the
history of the warnow enters a new epoch.
Heretofore, our measures have been taken
merely with reference to tiding over the
first months of war, and have looked with
certainty to its early suppression by pow
ers outside of the immediate contest. In
one o! his messages during the winter, if
we lecollect aright, the President actually
congratulated the country on the small
number ol millions that had been expend
ed in the war ; when, in fact, his meas
ures of defence should have been taken
on the scale to have cost quadruple the
sum. The congratulation fell coldly up
on the popular temper ; for at least in
their death-struggle for independence, the
people most cordially despise the thought
of economy.
Henceforth, the South fights the enemy,
not merely to gain time, not merely to
protect their homes and firesides; but
they fight to conquer by arms an honour
able and permanent peace. It is well
that intervention did not come to their
aid. It is better, in the long run, that the
war should not owe its termination to oth
er cause than Southern vigour, courage and
prowess. What if peace had been coerced
by Europe in the dark days of March and
April last, while the enemy was driving
us at every point, and the whole world
was on tiptoe to hear of the final end of
the rebellion? The North would have
been like a lion suddenly robbed of his
prey. His bloodthirsty spirit, and con
scious superiority of power, would have
made him an intolerable neighbor and
! implacable enemy. He would have
j seized the first opportunity of trouble in
Europe to pounce again upon his victim ;
and permanent and cordial peace could
never have existed between the separated
belligerents.
There can be no peace worth the name
between North and South that shall come
until the latter has demonstrated her ca
pacity for self-protection. This would be
necessary to her future repose and security,
i even if there was no peculiar feature in
j her social system which would forever give
j excuse and colour to wrongful aggressions
i upon her. A correspondent from the
i South gives expression to a profound and
j pervading Southern sentiment when he
says : • 1 have never felt a doubt as to
j our ultimate success. My confidence
j rests upon the fact of slavery being a di-
S vine institution, and therefore commands
the protection of God." xne sentiment
that Providence is on our side is universal
among the people. It is on our side, not
only in respect to the immediate issues of
the war, but in respect to our institutions,
in all their detail, and to our general des
tiny as a people. Our people know that
they will triumph in this conllict. This
is as certain as the decree of Providence
were already inscribed in letters of light
upon the firmament. But we have at last
begun to realize also not only that it is
necessary, but that it is preferable, that
this triumph should be the fruit exclusive
ly of our own effort and toil. When this
triumph does come, and in this manner,
who shall then deny that our institutions
are God-ordained and Heaven-protected ?
At the beginning of the war, there was
not a man of preteusiou to sagacity out
side of the Confederacy that did not look
upon the war as hopeless for the South,
if the belligerents were left to fight it out
by themselves. 1 he institution of slavery
was pronounced an element of weakness
and collapse within the frame-work of our
own society, that would itself effeet our
destruction, with only the. semblance of
aid from the adversary in chief. It
was believed to be an accursed thing, that
would bring upon its supporters the lash
of Heaven, which would make Northern
armies the instrument of its exterminating
wrath.
The result has falsified all these Exeter
Hall anticipations, and slavery by the suc
cess which has crowned our arms and the
smiles of Heaven that have beamed upon
our banners, stands even now vindicated
before the world from the aspersions of the
infidel and fanatic blasphemers that have
assailed it.
So far from losing anything from a pro
longation of the war, and from the necessi
ty, at last recognized, of fighting it out to
the end by vigorous conflict, the South has
everything to gain. She will teach a les
son of awe and caution to the enemy,
which will make peace, when in comes,
real, secure, permanent and valuable. Far
better is it than not, to expend a thousand
millions of dollars in establishing this
wholesome respect for our military capaci
ty; thereby attaining immunity from iusult
and aggression, the apprehension of which
would cost us the perpetual maintenance
of huge standing armies, and the actual oc
currence of which would entail infinitely
greater outlays and losses.
It being reduced to a certainty that we
are to fight the war out to the bitter end;
and that we are to obtain peace by placing
the enemy in condition of body and mind
disposing him to treat—this having become
at last the settled conviction of the South
ern people—it becomes our government,
to take measures for conducting the war
on the most efficient scale.
We require an army adequate to meet
the hosts which the enemy are recruiting
for the field. The whole country should
now be filled with camps of instruction,
containing ample' reserves with which to
till up our rankc no they are depleted, and
to meet every emergency of the war. And
especially should we have a navy, embrac
ing whole fleets of Merrimacs of light draft
for the protection of our watercourses, and
for the relief of our seaboard from the rav
ages of the enemy.
Flattery—Abuse.—“Adroit observ
ers will find that some who affect to
dislike flattery, may yet be flattered
indirectly by a well seasoned abuse
and ridicule of their rivals. Diogenes
professed to be no flatterer, but Iris
cynic raillery was, in other words,
flattery. It fed the ruling passion of
the Athenian mob, who were more
pleased to hear their superiors
abused than themselves commen
ded.”
“There are two kinds of curiosity.
One arises, from interest, which
makes us desirous to learn what may
be useful to us : the other from pride,
which makes us desire to know what
others are ignorant of.”
Fortune.—“Fortune has been consid
ered the guardian divinity of fools,
and, on this score, she has been accused
of blindness : but it should ratber be
adduced as a proof of her sagacity,
when she helps those who certainly
cannot help themselves.”
A Remarkable Incident.—The evac
uation of Norfolk was attended with a
great deal of confusion, and was per
formed with much haste, in the re
treat of the 12th regiment, a member
of the “B” Greys, well known in this
city, had the misfortune to lose a very
valuable pointer dog to which he was
greatly attached, and which was a
constant companion. The dog was
momentarily overlooked and left be
hind in the haste of the master’s pack
ing up and retreating, and fella prize
to the Yankees, who soon occupied
their deserted position. The gentleman
deeply regretted the loss of his dog, and
never again expected to see him. Time
went on, and the memorable battles
before Richmond took place. Time
andagain McClerian’s grand army was
driven from itschosen'Jiositions, until it
was massed on Malvern Hill, of bloody
memory. About the close of the terrible
engagement at this point, or probably a
little while after hostilities had ceased,
the owner of the dog as well as the en
tire company, who had long known
the animal, was surprised to see him
rush into their midst, and jump now
on this one and now on that, until he
had foun i his master, whom he seemed
perfectly frantic to meet again. lie
jumped upon his shoulders, licked his
hands, rolled between his feet and ex
pressed his joy in every imaginable
manner. This is one of the most re
markable instances we have ever heard
of. The dog had been taken at Norfolk,
and well provided for by his liewYank-
ee owner, and eventually carried by
him to the Peninsula. It is highly
probable that during the engagement
at Malvern Hill, the dog snuffed
through the sulphurous atmosphere
the scent of his old master,.and at once
rushed to find him.—Petersburg Express.

The following extract from a letter
of Jno. Forney to his paper, the Phil
adelphia Press, shows what he thinks j
of Jeff. Davis’ retaliation order:
1 am glad that Davis has so prompt
ly accepted the challenge of Pope.
The Administration has pledged itself
to the course of the hold General; the i
people will stand hv the Administra
tion. His course is the true one. His-
tory justifies it; the example of the
greatest captains of Christendom may
he quoted as an illustration and an ar
gument. If we are in war, let us plun
der, burn and destroy; for war means
plunder, burning and destruction. Pope
is in earnest and Davis a is in earnest;
let us see whose earnestness possesses
the most meaning and power. Sword
point at last crosses sword point—now
for the parry, the grapple, the death
thrust. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a
tooth, limb for limb, life for life, liber
ty for liberty— this is the earnest way
to fight it like earnest men. Then the
drums will heat harshly and the bugles
sound shrilly, for the music is that of
battle, and no longer a dress parade.
Minors in the Military Service.—
It is a notorious fact that while the
House of Representatives (now two
weeks in session) has yet done nothing
tu promoto the cHicienoy of the fti’Hijj
it has passed an act which may deprive
that army of one of its strongest ele
ments. This act declares that any pri
vate soldier under the age of eighteen
years shall be entitled to a discharge
from all military service, on his own
application, or that of his parents,
guardian or next of kin, the only ex
ception to the rule being in the case of
minors who have entered the service
as substitutes; and that no person un
der the age of eighteen shall hereafter
be allowed to enter the service with
out consent of the parents. At the ear
nest solicitation of the delegates from
Kentucky, the act was made non-appli-
cable to that State, they having shown
that it would otherwise entail the
most disastrous conseqences. Should
the hill finally become a law, at least
20,000 efficient soldiers will be with
drawn from the army, with no corres
ponding benefit so far as has yet been
shown by its advocates.—There is,
however, afair prospect of its defeat
in the Senate, to which body the peo
ple look for proper restraints upon the
weak and mischievous legislation of the
lower Uonse.—Richmond Examiner.
Fredericksburg Evacuated by the
Enemy.—A gentleman who left Fred
ericksburg on Monday afternoon reach
ed this city yesterday, with intelligence
that the Yankees evacuated that place
on Sunday evening last, and departed
in the direction of Aquia creek. They
had been engaged for several days in
the work of destroying all the property
in their possession, and the Federal
commander, Kingsbury, previous to
leaving, transferred the government of
the town to the civil authorities, and
advised them to place a force of citizens
on guard Sunday night to protect
private property from plunder by the
army stragglers. This advice was fol
lowed, and nearly every citizen kept
watch through the night. The enemy
set fire to the three bridges, which
were much injured by explosions of
gunpowder placed there for the pur
pose of blowing them up. Large fires
were seen burning during the whole
night on the opposite side of the river,
in Stafford, where all the expensive
depots ofprovisions, commissary stores,
bakeries,tents, Ac, were located. They
were all destroyed, together with the
large barn of Major Lacy, on the
Chatham estate, which was tilled with
stores. They accomplished their work
very thoroughly, as if they had no in
tention of returning. A letter from a
citizen of Fredericksburg says that
refugees can safely return to their
homes and families. Several men of
Uuion proclivities, including J. W.
Hunnicutt, editor of the Christian Ban
ner, went with the Yankees.
“The art of setting off moderate
qualifications steals esteem and often
gives more reputation than real mer
it.”
