An EnglMiPicmrt of Confederate Head
Hu Ariel's.
In visiting the headquarters of the
Confederate Generals, but particular
ly those of Gen. Lee, any one accus
tomed to see European armies in the
field cannot fail to be struck with the
great absence of- all the pomp and
circumstance of war in and around
their .encampments. Lee’s headquar
ters consisted of about 1 or 8 pole
tents, pitched with their backs to a
stake fence, on. a piece of ground so
rocky that it was unpleasant to ride
over it, its only recommendation be
ing a little stream of good water that
flowed close by the General’s tents.
In front of the tents were some three
four-wheeled wagons drawn up with
out any regularity, and a number ot
horses roamed loose about the field.
The servants, who were of course
slaves, and the' mounted soldiers, call
ed “couriers,” wuo always accompany
each General ol Division in the field,
were unprovided with tents and slept
in or under the wagons. Wagons,
tents, and some of the horses were
marked U. S., showing that part of
that huge debt in the North has gone
to furnishing even the Confederate
Generals with camp equipments. No
guard or sentries were to be seen in
toe vicinity ; no crowds of aids-de
camp loitering about, making them
selves agreeable to vis : tors, and en
deavoring to save their Generals from
receiving those who have no particu
lar business.
A large farm-house stands close
by, which, in any other army, would
have beeu the General’s residence
pro tem., but as no liberties are allow
ed to be taken with personal property
in Lee’s army, he is particular in set
ting a good example himself. His
staff are crowded together 2 or 3 in
a tent; none are allowed to carry
more baggage than a small box each,
and his own kit is but very little
larger. Every one who approaches
him does so with marked respect, al
though there is none of that bowing
and flourishing of forage caps which
occurs in the presence of European
generals ; and while all honor him,
and place implicit, faith in his cour
age and ability, those with whom lie
is most intimate feel for him the af
fection of sons to a father. Old Gen.
Scott was correct.in saying that when
Lee joined the.-■ Southern cause it was
worth as much as the accession of
20.000 men to. the “rebels.” Since
then every injury that it was possi
ble to inflict the Northerners have
heaped upon him. His house on the
Pamunkey river was burnt to the
ground and the slaves carried away,
many of them by force, while his res
idence on the Arlington Heights was
not only gutted of,.its furniture, but
even the very relics of George Wash
ington were stolen from it and para
ded in triumph in the saloons of New
York and Boston.
Notwithstanding all these personal
losses, however, when speaking of
the Yankees he neither evinced any
bitterness of feeling nor gave utter
ance to a single violent expression,
but alluded to many of his former
friends and companions among them
in the kindest terms. He spoke as a
man proud of the victories won bv
his country aiid confident of ultimate
success, under the blessings of the
Almighty, whom be glorified for past
successes, and whose aid he invoked
for all future operations. He regret
ted that his limited supply of tents
and available accommodation would
prevent him from putting us up, but
lie kindly placed at our disposal hor
ses, or a two-horse wagon, if we pre
ferred it, to drive about in.
On leaving hitn, we drove to Bun
ker Hill, six miles nearer Martins
burg, at which place “Stonewall”
Jackson, now of world-wide celebri
ty, had his headquarters. With him
we spent a most pleasant hour, and
were agreeably surprised to find him
very affable, having been led to ex
pect that he was silent aud of a most
morose habit. Dressed in his grey
uniform, he looks the hero that he is;
and his thin, compressed lips, aud
calm glance, which meets yours un
flinchingly, give evidence of that firm
ness and decision of character for
which he is so famous. He has a
broad, open forehead, from which the
hair is well brushed back; a shapely
nose, straight and rather long; thin,
colorless cheeks, witli a very small
allowance of whiskers ; a cleanly
shaven upper lip and’chin; and a pair
of fine, greyish blue eyes, rather
sunken, with overhanging brows,
which intensify the keenness of his
gaze,' but without imparting any
fierceness to it. Such are the gener
al characteristics of the face, aud 1
have only 1 to add that a smile seems
always lurking about his mouth when
he speaks, a»d that though his voice
partakes slightly of that harshness
which Europeans unjustly attribute
to all Americans, there is much un
mistakable cordiality in his manner ;
and to, Ub he talked most affectionate
ly pf England and of his brief but
enjoyable sojourn there. The relig
ious element seems strongly devel
oped in hint, and though his Conver
sation is perfectly free from all Puri- 3
titn&ll &riftrft' , ls frUikM In?4* a per
son whqjigwMD I faot
that there is an omnipresent Deity
ever presiding over the minutest oc
currences of life as well as the most
important. Altogether, as one of iiis
soldiers said to me in talking of him,
“he is a glorious fellow,” and after 1
left him I felt I had at last solved the
mystery of the “Stonewall Brigade,”
and discovered why it was if had ac
complished such almost miraculous
feats. With such a leader men would
go anywhere and face any amount of
difficulties; and, for myself, I believe
that, inspired by'the presence of such
a man, I should be perfectly insensi
ble to fatigue, and reckon on success
as a mo(al certainty.
While Gen Lee is regarded in the
light of infallible Jove, a man to be
reverenced, Jackson is loved and
adored witli all that childlike and
trustful affection which the ancients
are said to have lavished on the par
ticular deity presiding over their af
fairs. The feeling of the soldiers for
Gen. Lee resembles that which Wel
lington’s troops entertained for him;
namely, a fixed and unshaken faith in
all he did, and a calm confidence of
victory when serving under him. But
Jackson, like Napoleon, is idolized
with that in+ense fervor which, con
sisting of mingled personal attach
ment and devoted loyalty, causes
them to meet death for his sake and
bless him when dying.
The Powder Mills in the Confederate
States.
The London Times, of March 18th,
has another direct correspondence
from the rebel States, dated Augusta,
Jan. 26th. It is written (says the
Cincinnati Enquirer) in the usual
style of the Confederate correspond
ence of the Times, more eulogistic of
the rebels than even the rebel papers
are themselves. The following ac
count of the powdtfr mills established
by the Confederate Government con
tains some valuable information :
“When, on the 13th of April, 1881,
Fort Sumter surrendered to General
Beauregard and the Confederates, not
one single pound of gunpowder was
anywhere manufactured in the Con
federacy A rigorous blockade of the
seaports of the South was immediate
ly commenced, through which the
principal ingredient of gunpowder
(saltpetre) had to be largely sucked
in. At this juncture it seemed advi
sable to President Davis tu entrust
to Col. Kaines, formerly an officer of
the U. S. army, the responsibility of
planning and building a large gov
ernment mill for the manufacture of
gunpowder. For this post Col. Raines
possessed eminent qualifications. He
had been professor of chemistry at
West Point, and ft r some years since
leaving the army, lie had been at the
head of some large iron works at
Newburg, on the Hudson. Augusta,
in Georgia, was selected as the site
of the intended mill, and never, both
as regards the person and the situa
tion pitched upon, was happier sagac
ity evinced by the President. Fol
lowing, so far as ho was acquainted
with it, the plan upon which the gun
powder mill at Waltham Abbey, be
longing to the English Government,
is built, Col. Raines proceeded to con
struct the works necessary for his
purpose; and the success which has
attended liis efforts has been such as
could never have been believed be
fore the pressure of war * aud priva
tion had awakened Southern ingenu
ity aud enterprise. The result is,
that at the cost of about £20,000,
one of the most perfect gunpowder
mills in the world has been produced,
which turns out 5,000 lbs. of powder
per day, and could produce double
that amount if worked day and night,
and much more if worked under the
exigency of a pressing demand.
The cost of this powder, in spite of
the costliness of the < saltpetre which
has been introduced through the
blockade, is about four cents per
pound, which is about the same as
its cost in England. ’The mill has
now been constantly at work for ma
ny months, and consequently more
powder than the Confederacy is like
ly to require for years to come has
already been produced. There is an?
other government powder mill at Co
lumbia, in South Carolina, working,
I believe, to supply the wants (not
very large as yet) of the Confederate
navy; out all the gunpowder issued
for the service of the Confederate ar
mies of Virginia and the West, and
also for the defence of Charleston aud
Vicksburg, has come out of the mill
at Augusta; and it was stated to me
by an ordnance officer in Charleston
that the powder which he had recent
ly receivea there and tested was very
nearly if not entirely up to the stan
dard of the finest English manufac
ture.
The Extreme deliberation with
which the Confederate\ Government
h»s engaged in and cost
ly uudertakings, requiring long time,
for their completion and much inge
nuity in their design, is the best ear
nest of the quietness and confidence
with which they have, from tb" very
commencement, looked at their inde
pendence as a thin.gr which they could
uot fail to oi-Wn. These government
powdei mills at Columbia and Augug
~ fey sole achieve
ments of
in support of their soldiers in the
field. It maybe noticed in the North,
and although the necessity for the
erection of a government powder mill
has often been represented to the
War Department, at Washington, no
such mill has ever been erected. It
has been found that pVivate interests
have been too strongly represented
ih Congress to admit of the with
drawal of the government patronage
from the great private firms in Con
necticut and Delaware, between which
it is, I believe, divided. In hundreds
of matters, that necessity which was
thought by the North certain to crush
the Southern power of resistance, has
but developed an energy for which
the world, and especially England,
was very little prepared.”
