TIE 7TH REG MENT NORTH CAROLINA VOLUNTEERS.
We have read with great care the several state

it entirely nasal victory with which Picay une
Butler had nothing TO dO-eXcept as a lOOker-On at

authority that the heavy guns Of the Wabash, Min

range of the thIrtytwO's and tWenty-fOurs of Fort
Hgtteras, shelled the garrison, who stood their
ground nobly in the unfortunate predcament OF not

Some of the Southern press have INDUCED in

state on good authority, that those in the
United States Navy who participl ted in
the action, speak in terms Of high cOmmendation of
Col. Martins It'll Regiment North Carolina Volun~
teers. 1t of course remains for Gen. Butler to do
the talking the affair, and to proclaim to the
wonder stricken North. "that the Light of Hattrres
will once again shine" &c. &c. It is known that
Commodore Barren refused to surrender his sword
to Butler, tating a reason, that his command had
not participated in the fight The ressonsbleness of
this position was allowed, and the Surrender took
place on board the flag ship of the squadron The 18th

quests that in the future there may re more per
feet respect for the Sabbath on the part of his com
mand. We are fighting in holy cause, and should
endeavor to deserve the benign favor of the Gre

Unless in case OF an attack by the enemy, or some
other extreme military necessity, it is commended
to commanding officers that all work shall be sus-
pended on the Sabbath that ne unnecessary move
ments shall be made on that day that the men, as
far possible shall be permitted to rest from their
labors; that they shall attend divine service after
the Customary inspection, and that officers and Een
alike their influence to insure the utmost deco
rum and quiet on that day. The General command

necessary for man and animals. More than this,
the observance of the holy day Of the God of Mercy
