JUDGE BADGEK-The Junior Editor, writing from

JUDGE BADGEK-The Junior Editor, writing from
Camp Rufin, Isle of Wight county, Va, says:
81 find that Judge Badger stands deservedly
high down in this country, where the people are
generally intellectual and refined. They regard
him as one of the purest and ablest statesmen in
the South, and an old-line Wing informs that he
Judge b. is the decided preference in this section
for the next Presidency. What pity that party
spirit should consign a man of his genius and tai
ents and purity of character, to the shades of pr-
vate life. When he is dead and gone those who
now hunt him down as a canine pack drives the
lion to its lair, will be his greatest euogists. 1t
was thus with Henry Clay and thus will it be with
Judge Badger. But my choice for the Presidency
looking at the aspect of affairs now presented
is jeff Davis; though hope to live to see the day
when Judge Badger will occupy the Presidential
char of the Confederate Government No man
could adorn it more e"-Milton Chronicle.
We think We may say, as friend and neighbor
of Mr.. Badger, that he has no aspirations whatever
for the Presidency of the Confederate States, and
that his chief wish now is to see the war vigorously
prosecuted to an honorable termination for the
South. The Confederate States contain no truer
or more loyal son than Mr.. Badger. But our friend,
the Junior Editor of the Chronicle, is mistaken
when he says that Mr.. B. has been consigned to
private life lie is now member Of the State Con-
vention, to which position he was called by most
flattering vote of those who know him best.

DENT DAvIs-The lst regiment Of North Carolina
Cavalry, Col. Robert Ransom Jr., whose arrival
hore on Friday last, created marked sensation,
were yesterday reviewed by President Davis, in the
presence of thousand of spectators, considerable
proportion of whom were ladies.
The rcgimental line was formed about o'clock,
and shortly afterwards the President who was at
tired in his usual citizens garb rode past the corps
in review, accompanied by his private Secretary,
Robert Josselyn, ESQ.,, and Col Chiffon of the Ad
jutant Generals office, and Lieut.. John f. Shore, Of
the Nottoway Artillery. During the formality, the
well dressed lines and splendid horsemanship Of the
regiment was commented upon in admiring terms
by the President who appeared highly pleased with
the remarkable proficiency in the drill evidenced by
the command. &
At the departure Of President Davis, the regiment
was exercised in the manual of the sword and In the
number of evolutions the most of which were splen
didly performed. The drill terminated about half.
past o'clock, when the corps returned to their
camp west Of the Reservoir and the spectators dis-
persed, highly gratfed with the extraordinary spec

Hon. John C.. Breckenridge.

We are glad to see that this gentleman has at
length fully identified himself with the South He
the people of Kentucky resignng his seat in the
U. s. Senate and defining his position 1t is most
stern rebuke to the despotism of Lincoln. We cor
daily welcome him able co-adjutor in defending
the South. He enters the Confederate army in
Kentucky as private. Had he and Magofin and
others of that State taken that stand upon the issue
of Lincoln's proclamation, Kentucky would now
have been partially free from the horrors Of civil
war. and one of the Confederate States. See ex-
tract from his address elsewhere

well, we suppose, prescribed him last May, when
they gave him only about $50 votes for the Conven-
ton; but Mr.. Hill does not regard himself as pro-
scrbed for he contended in the last Legislature that
he enjoyed the high position Of being the only men,
Der of the Commons who was private in the ranks,
and urged Mr.. Meares to join him in thus fighting
the battles of the country. But Mr. Meares respect
fully declined alleging as reason that if he Joined
Mr.. Hill he was afraid he should never get to the
wars. -... -.-. -
And this dismal howl is set up over gentlemen, as
having been banished from public life, six Of whom
at least are in the military service of the country!
A man is "proscribed" because he chooses to enter
the army! Was the like ever heard of before? But
this only shows the channel in which the thoughts
of these crocodes are running. In their greed for
office even in the midst of war; they hold that every
man of their peculiar stamp who is not out of harms
way, with at least one creamyelding public teat in
his voracious mouth is an object of pity, and should
be regarded as prescribed"
We now tell these gentry that the people, who
have eschewed party, and who have at heart only
the good of the country will continue to select the
best men to serve them and that they neither have
the time to observe are they inclined to observe
who is placed in office or excluded from office, so
the best men without regard to party are selected,
and the interests of the country protected and
advanced

are grati6ed at the warm encomums it has elected
from the Virginia papers. We doubt if any State

manded by one of the best Cavalry officers in the
