number of our citizens directly in

an interest bordering on extreme
curiosity in applying to Col. Shof
flgel for information con corning
T. ,T. Lumpkin’s record during the
late war we consent to publish the
fallowing manly letter from a gal
lant soldier who could not coun-
tenance, or lend his aid for the
furtherance of a hellish scheme to
the injury of a good man. It is a
deviation fremnur rule to publish
a private letter of any character,
but we think in this cage the cir
cumstances justify the means taken
to arrive at the trim facts of the
case at point, -ind we reluctantly
publish the letter of Col. Nisbet, by
which the public may know o| the
record of a gallant soldier.

Dear Sir:—T. J. Lumpkiniis run

comes out in a card in which he
claims to have been brevt. Lieut.
Col. of the 18th Ala., Regiment—
as this news to us we would
like to hear from you on this sub
ject. He has proven himself such i
a coward and cheat since th e war;
that we are doubtful of this late
war claim of his, and as to his be
ing aj gallent soldier of any ranks.
A reply early will oblige

Mu. Editor :—Haviug received

and was attached to the 48 Ala.,
at Auburn, Ala., on the 29th of

ordered to Richmond, Va., and re
