SPEAKING OF THE nature of the wounds inflicted by
the two sides in the battle of the 2ls ut Mr. Sinclair
tells that very large number of the Northern dead
were almost cut in two by bowie knives or spted by
bayonets We say of their dead for the Southern bayo
nets and bowie knives left wounded to tell the tale
MIR. s. saw one of the dead on the enemy's side who
must have been killed in the retreat rout, who was
actually split down the back like picked shad null
let The splitting was evidently done with bowie knife
IN Tremendously muscular hand. One regiment or bat
taon, the New Orleans Tigers, we think, led by Mai
Wheat, native North Carolinan threw down their
rifles and pitched in with their bowie knives Mr.. s..
says it was awfully exciting. They put their men
through. The majority of these Tigers were Irish STE

Of the establishment Everything can be in place ard
in fall working order sometime in the present year. OF
course the machinery and the workmen will not stand
idle in the mean time but will carry operations to
the full extent of the power and capacity of the estab

We regret to learn that one of the workmen from
Harpers Ferry, gentleman whose name we forget or
did not learn having gone on from Fayetteville for bis
family which he had left at the Ferry has been arrested
by order Of General Banks He is spoken of a very
worthy and useful man.

Our EXCHANGES, like ourselves, frequently driven
to repeating old stories, or giving versions of ia

valuable suggestions we'll worthy the attention not only
of the authorities, but of our peor lie at large.
Hon. Ab aham Venable, although the correspondent
of the ladies' yet makes his appearance in print through

diers
Our teltg ,aphic desl ches by way of the West, art
worth-nore or less, the case may be. Their chic
value is that they exhibit the Northern side of the pic

the readers of Northern papers and Geographic dispatch

We ourselves have tried to Gull from the North ant

E6s- If the Fayetteville Observer had watched the

FROM THE BATTLE FIELD.-We had the pleasure Of
meeting this morning, the Rev. James Sinclair, Chap
lain of the 5th Regiment North Carolina State Troops
1t will be recoected that Mr. Sinclair in the absence
Of most of the field officers of the regiment acted
Lieutenant Colonel and led several charges during the
eventful 2lst July, and was compimened on the field
for his gallanry
Mr. Sincair's heart is in the cause. He feels that
what is right for him, as clergyman to pray for,
is also and equally right for him as man to fight for,
and he will fight like a man. Mr.. Sinclair wishes to
raise battalion regiment not because be wants an
Office but because he wants his friends and neighbours
to be with him, fighting for the good cause. Will not
many in his section rally to the standard he raises
more especially will not his Scotch friends to the
rescue If they go with him, they will be pretty certain
to see service. OF that they may rest assured
Mr.. Sinclair has given many interesting details Of
the BATTLE but these details of all sorts have been spread
abroad so widely that we tee unwilling to give more
however interesting they may be- and they interest

They were also great on playing cards. The field
was strewn with them, and the prisoners pulled out
packs in abundance wherewthal to begue the tedium
of confinement They in sundry tobacco warehouses;
Whether they get " chaws or not we have not heard
OF course what is doing within the lines is not known
to any one unless under pledge of honor.
THE MEETING last night was very large-the inter
est was strong yet the feeling Of obedience to law
controlling Nc meeting could have been more order
w. and few could have been unanimous The reso-
uons adopted contemplate and request action by our
State and Confederate authorities. They are mild
enough yet they 90 far as the law now goes, and
where does not go far enough they request additional
legislation to come up to the requirements of the emer
gency.
We noticed with pleasure the presence of influential
gentlemen from different sections Of the county.
1t will be seen that the preamble and first resolutions
are identical with those adopted by the town meeting
held some weeks SINCE upon which the Convention took
no action The other recommendations contemplate
nothing that cannot be obtained in legal and conSt
tutional manner. For ourselves and for the other
gentlemen of the committee, we will say that whatever
the excitement under which might labor and on this
occasion there was none, we would not, knowingly re-
commend any thing opposedo the law, or calculated to
work Injustice nor if we did recommend any such thing
would we expect to be sustained by this community.

THE FEDERAL1sr q Army of the Shenandoah Il

THE FEDERAL1sT Army of the Shenandoah !" is
about dsbanded, and Gen Banks is at Harpers Ferry
with the mere shadow of force. He can only stay
there long as General Johnston does not think II
worth while to dslodge him. So feeble is the Federal
showing in the valley of Virginia, that Gen. Johnston
has merely left small army of observation there, while
with his main body he cooperates with the army OF the
Potomac. Forces can now be sent to retrieve the
Southern cause in Western Virginia.
There is little to doubt the substantial truth
Of the report of battle having been fought at or near
Springfield Missouri between the Southern forces under
Gen. Ben. Mccullough and the Federaists, under Ly
on. The loss on both sides heavy, Lyons killed
and wounded being put at 900, and McCullough's al
600. Mccullough took large number of prisoners
and routed the enemy. This latest and apparently au
thentic account comes through the Memphis Argus
