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. \ i ! 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.” Legislature of Georgia.
