THH BURsisa or Cerros.-The planters

moving their negroes 10 the interior and in

pobler than the courage Of the battle field,
the planters are applying the torch to the

The Yankees do not understand the spri
Of he Southern people. They might as well

RICHMOND, VA, Nov. 18th, 1881.
To Gel. J. n. Pnrris, assistant Adjneaat General
Missouri State Guard,
CoLoNEL-My absence from Missouri on busi-
ness connected with our State interests pre.
vented my receiving un til to-day your report
of the 2sth ult. During my superin tendence
under Governor Jackson's authority, OF the
affairs of our suffering State in its Southeast
quarter, nothing has occurred to give me
such satisfacti ton as the perusaI OF your ac-
CONT of General Thompson's short but bril-
liant campaign in the Ozark mountains. To
have ventured to advance more than a hun
bred miles from the main body of our forces,
pass between the strongly garrisoned fort
tresses of the enemy at Ironto and Cape Gil
former by railroad and the latter by the Mis-
sissippi river, from st. Louis, and burn an
I'M oI tant railroad bridge within fifty miles
OF that city, swarming with Lincoln troops,
would have been rashness In a leader less sa-
gacious and vigilant than General Thomp
| son, or with soldiers less hardy and daring
| than the "Swamp Fox Brigade of South
east Missouri. The fight at Fredericktown
justifies the high reputation of that gallant
officer and his command. While deploring
