AFFAIR SAMPLE OF SouTHERN Sr1RlT.-A letter
recently received from Washington informs US that
among the prisoners taken by the Hessians at the
battle of Manassas was ''lad only fifteen years
of age.f OF course, the presence of such a strip
ling prisoner excited much curiosity and he was
subjected to many interrogatores Among others
Who undertook to question the little fellow was
Sen Mansfield, who probably thought that one so
young and inexperienced might be induced to
make important revelations. The only answer,
however, he could get from our "bold sodger
boy'' was: +" ERe lnhipped you and tse eeM do 1t

A lady, who saw him the first day after he got

The Charleston Courier of Tuesday
last, while expressing its great gratifca
ton in the full establishment By the
Montgomery Convention of a strong
and vigorous government, calls atten-
ton to that article Of the Confederation
which reserves to Congress therpower to
declare, war, and urges an immediate at
tack upon Fort Sumpter without refer
ence to the action or policy of the new
Government. It says: .....
South Carolina being fully prepared,
and her citizens being eager to make
good the demand for the surrender OF
Fort Sumpter, Congress will, we trust,
see the necessity Of prompt action with
regard to the possession of that important
fertilization Our troops are ready to
move in solid phalanx when the word
march shall. be given. The position
that South Carolina has taken renders il
necessary that immediate measures be
adopted for the secure possession of her
citizens, Of all the Qualifications in her
