NPeace or War;

We are constantly receiving from our cor
respondents in the Seeding States warm I'M
VACATIONS in behalf of peace between the
Federal Government and the States which
have EeRoaneed its authority. We append
the following EXTRACT from the communica-
ton of subscriber in Alabama, who may be
regarded as the representative Of class of
minds which seem TO be haunted by the ap-
prehensions of aggressive measures for the
s.subjugation Of the South 3"
GREENSBORO, ALABAMA. March Is, 1861.
.sCan you indulge an old subscriber in q
few reflections on the absorbing topic of the
day? 1t is unnecessary to preface that every
subject takes its appearance from the stand
point from which it is seen. To US in the
South it gems absolutely uncomfortable that
any portion of the American people could
so soon have forgotten the fundamental
principle that all just Governments derive
their authority from the consent of the gov
erned as to undertake war against Us, It
has long been our proud boast that while the
uureasoning hordes who composed the armies
of European Powers we're led TO the slaughter
to promote not their own but the interests
or ambition OF the reiguing Powers-in free
America The people we're sovereign, their in
terests were to b. consulted, and, war it ever
waged, would be for their protection or de-
fence. NOW Tue PTOPositiou - Stayety eou-
sidered of waging war upon supposed
weaker tier of States because in the exercise
of their sovereign rights they have seen
proper to withdraw themselves from the evil
to come-uuder Black Republican rule.D
BE may say to our correspondent, in all
frankness and sincerity, that we are not ap-
priced Of any designs On the part Of the Fed
eral Government against the peace of the
Seeded States, The rumors to that effect
derive ali their currency from the sensation
press in the interest Of secession, and are OBJ,
viously meant 70 fire the Southern hearth
and keep alive the sentiment ofpoliticai hate.
So far from meditating the military subiu-
CATION" of the South, the Administration, as
we learn, is studiously DESTROYS to avoid the
very appearance of practising anything like
a constSSjnt on public opinion. and, as evil
dence Of this disposition, we understand that
the troops about to leave Texas. instead of
being distributed at points In Virginia and
North Carolina, where IL might have been
otherwise most convenient 70 station them,
have al been ordered further north, where
their presence can irritate no excited sensi-
bilisies and giRs Else 10 no panic fssrs.-

THE common belief that much of the uncertainty
i of Medical Practice arises from the bad quality OF
Medical substances, seems to acquire daily conirrna-
ton. Through faulty preparation and commercial
competition many preparations formerly regarded of
primary Importance q adualIy going out of use
while others produce effects and accidents that
do not properly belong to them described in the
Pharmacopea New remedies, as suggested and offer
ed for trial often found imperfect, and varying
much in chemical character and strength they
either condemned received upon false premises
both equally at variance With the proper progress in
therapeutics whilst most practitioners daily feel that
the Materia Medica s lot rich enough either to lose
its old remedies or to sacrifice opportunities of ac-
quirlng new ones, proper appreciation of these
facts warrant the Subscribers in manufacturing and
vending none but First Glass Standard Preparations

/ now occupy. The circumstances of the times
were not then altogether unlike what they are
now. He stood here in 1850. In 1S4S the
storm was gathering as it has now gathered.
Great aPprehensions were entertained in the
country that it would terminate in disunion:
Mr.. Clay went to Congress in 1S49. He
brought forward a series of compromises in
1850 and had them passed. That pacified the
country and preserved the Union. In 1850 he
came here and in this Legislature he delivered
an address. The storm had been passed by,
but he spoke to them with prophets fire, and
with all patriots concern of the character of
the Constitution of their country and the value
of this Union. He said, 81 have been asked,
when would consent to give up this Union?
! answered never! neveri neveri and warn
you, my eountrymen, now if as things seem to
tend this country should be DIVIDED into a
Union and Disunionist party, here now, no
matter who composes that party, declare myself
a member of the Union party. Whether it be
Wing or Democrat that belongs to the par
ty of the Union, there subscribe my name

party" How would he nswer the question,
what shall we dos Shall we quit this Union
now and go OFF upon the experiment of our
brethren of the South? What would he answer

a question to be debated; it is not question to

Poor Officers and indifferent SOL
diers.
The Louisville correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial some two weeks
since thus spoke of the numbers and con :
dition of the Yankee troops in Kentucky
The number of armed and uniformed men
gathered in bodies at various points east of
the Cumberland, in this State, cannot be
much short of 10000 at this moment. But
the greater portion of this army hardly
deserves to be called soldiers The State
troops are all in an exceedingly inactive
condition, and the same may be said of quite
number of the Northern regiments. There
are regiments from Indiana, Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and Wisconsin, that are in a lamenta-
bly, backward state as to proficiency In drill
and discipline. Some Of them are so loosely
managed by ignorant and lazy officers, that
they never will be worth much in active
service. It is really pity to see such splen-
did material for 6rst-class soldiers ruined by
the curse of ounces in the shape of Colonies
Any Governor that viii, from political favor
itism, knowingly appoint incompetent indi-
be impeaehed. A well qualified Colonel is
the absolute condition of asuccessful regi-
mental organization. No matter how mex
perienced the other officers may be, he can
soon render them efficient, if he understands
his business, if they possess at all natural
intelligence There are striking instances
in this Department as to what well trained.

proficiency, as to secure the universal
acknowledgment that he has the best drilled

He already executes the most complicated
regimental maneuvres with precision that

Nor is it only in drill that his men excel.

A detachment of fifteen had been sta
toned at the bridge to guard it, of whom
two were absent at the time OF. the at
tack. TssTE q
The Federals, fifty or sixty in num-
Der, under command of Dutch Jew ped
dler, named Meta, and among whom
were several who had been raised in the
neighborhood, made their appearance
about day-break Thursday morning.
Four of the guard, who were on duty,
and who were standing by a plank cabin,
fired upon them, whereupon they re-
eeived volley of over one hundred
rounds from Sharpe's revolving rifles
killing two instantly and wounding an
other. Most of the shots were fired into
the cabin, on the superstition that the
rest of the guard were asleep in it, but
fortunately they were in a cabin little
distance off. They. were aroused by the
firing, but by the time they were up the
Federals were at the cabin, and they had
to surrender. They put the prisoners
under guard, tore down the cabins, put
the planks on the bridge, which they
sprinkled with turpentine, and then fired
it. Our informant was set about gath
ering up the baggage of the guard but
finding an opportunity, he made his es--
cape and came to Russellville. iaa ~.
Willis Campbell, of Logan county, a
member of Capt. Kings company, and
Hatch Jupin, of Bardstown, a member
of Capt. Wickliffe's company, were kill
ed, and Joseph Wilson, of Bardstown,
also in Capt. Wicklife's company, was
severely but not dangerously wounded
In the thigh. While loading his gun for
the second fire, his right fore finger was
shot off. Joseph Hall, James Walthall,
and John Jernigon, of Capt. MitchelPs
company; Isaac Duckwall and Joseph
johnson of Boshe's Portland Rangers;
Thos. Lilly and Messrs. Dougherty and
Fox, of Capt. Wickliffe's company, and
Paul Burgett, of Capt. Kings company,
were taken prisoners. syrs Gas IS 5r
Four of the Federals were wounded
not killed, as we understood yesterday.
They got a wagon in the neighborhood
in which their wounded were placed,
and little boy who saw them an hour
or two after the fight, said that one was
dead, They left the dead Confederates
where they killed them, and left Mr..
Wilson uncared for. He is now at Rus
sellville. ees3
We understand that small inn
promptu company went from Russellville
Thursday in pursuit, but finding their
number too small, they returned, were
reinforced, and again went out about
midnight, and had not returned at the
time our informant left, about nine o.
clock Friday morning.
A company of cavalry went down
from this place yesterday. m
The bridge was not much injured, and
can be readily repaired. 7a7 r
