 l. an, thing could add to the pleasure aad s,ts ftc ion of this ,ur, it would be to know that you were gag ng upon the scene that gr. cts my eyes It would need no words of grateful and heart felt acknowledgment fir m me for your pr mpt, ergetc an efficient aid in behalf of the ga laEt and brave boys of my command, coul you see em as do. neatly and conf rtably clad; |. h id ,heir Smi ing, hap faces; and hear them greet each other with the o;trepea'ei, " God bless the good ople of Dallas c,unty." But l have jus returned from visit among yom and my he irt tells me that must thank you. No knoas better than my>efhow much you have labored, nor how wi linglv and ch.ertully ou have given you money to aid ill clothing these honorable, noble hearted, yet half naked soldiers. To this en !, l have seen the mothers and daughters of DalIaS, bending over their work, day after day might aIt'r night; yes, week after week. have seen mothers strip the soft warm blankets from their beds and with their blessings) send them as covering to their absent soldier hu~bands and sons. 'Tis true the beauties of the elder time gave their jew els and m serale geweawS to grace the bloody trumphs of Ceaza and to sustain the mighty government of imperial Rome. 'Tis true the mothers of old Sparta Ieale cd their sol only Tor the battle fields oi the.r native lanl and those oi her enemies. But you wives, mothers and dauoh- tcrs of Dallas have done more. Your own lair hands spun, and m ,de the glrm.n;s which now D otect the forms of this "ny { IT. bdnd 0t br"ces," who as ceriainl that tlIe sun Will r.se to-morrow, will not disgrace you by dying lf die they must) with their ,cks to the Joe. Whatever Of labor and suifeing, of duty and danger the dark and m. sterious future holds for u>, shall be met and endured as becnmet the huSb nds and sons of so generous and hob people. With such as you to care for and love 1t is mposs be for us e.ther to latter fail. No! the South will yet be free. Free from the dsgraceml legislation ot Il 1T hem fanaticI demagogues: free from the insu ting tread of nJrtht I'll ireno soldiery; free from the nHr'"p'- ed rule of Mr. Line and all his miserable cor morint crew. The soidiers still ask your united prayers to the ''God of battles" If the South have this, her triumph is certain She cannot fail. Fail, uid say? No! rath would the pial- rie flower fail the spring; rather the thunderooit fail the storm And now with my parting hani ID yours, let me onl, add God bless you one and all.

 ST: Wehwemet the enemy, and' they would have been ours, had they not been in so great hurry to return to thcir den on the top of Cheat Mountain.
 On the morning of the Sd, at about o'clock. a messeng ter arrived in camp with tidlngs that the advance guard of the Yankees were firing upon our pckets some four or five miles from camp, and that they were advancing in force to attack us.- Instantly off issued order for Us to hold ourselves in ldiness for battle; an after citing pretty hearty breakfast, filing our canteens, and throwing down tents, the Id Arkansas volun- teers. Col. hust commanding, formed in line, and were marched t. the post of honor, p int where it was naturally supp 0 cd that the enemy would m Ike an attempt to flank us. Two C. mpan,s, however, were detailed to support a battery oi two siX-pounders, under command of the old Tennes- see veteran, Capt. Anderson, covering the road 10 the village of Greenl,ank. In making our way to our position, the whole regiment were expo ed for some minutes to a perfect haistorm of shot, shell and minnie balls; yet strange to say, not man was injured The enemy planted their batteries, all for six mortal hours a terrific storm of round shot bombs, grape and canister was thrown into our camp, killing one man and wounding tuo! The emem,'s loss from the fife of three six -pounders that were brought-to bear upon them. was most terrible. That they lost two field officers, we know; that they took away with them over thirty wagon loads of dead and wounded, we have the evidence of Col. R imsey of the lst regiment of Georgia volunteers, besides nine dead and wounded found on the field Our pickes fought like tigers and disputed every inch of the road for some three miles, killing and wound.ng tbir y-ive or forty of the north Tn hounds, whilst their loss was but six killed and twenty.two wosnded and mis. sing In explanation of so serou'a loss among the men on guard duty, it need only be said that
