Matters In ~Lynchbarg.

From the Lynchburg WAY Republican, o
Monday last, we extract the following:
During the past week the number of troop:
which arrived in this city averaged about ff
teen hundred per day-all Of whom were splen
didly armed and equipped. Where they are
from, or to what particular locality they are
destined, we will not divulge, but think it like.
" that old Abe md some of his minions will
heat of their whereabouts before many days.
"A large number Of the wounded in the great
battle at Manassas, on Sunday last, are in
L%ynchburg. the greater portion of whom are
being kindly cared for at the honses Of our
private citizens. Many Of them, whose iniu-
ries are bat slight. can be seen upon the streets;
and although they have seen the elephant
in his biggest proportions, are extremely anx-
ions to get well, and have another peep ut the
animal. They are all a most cheerful set I'M
der their injuries, and we hope may soon re-
cover.
Tobacco has been coming in very freely du-
ring the past week, and is commanding fair
prices. The agent of the French government,
we learn, is buying up large quantities of tobae.
co in Richmond, and this my be the cause of
the heavy arrivals here; or probably the licking
which the YANKEES received at Manassas, on
Sunday last, may have something to do with
the matter, by way Of inspiring confidence in
business circles. M

Our WOUNDED SoLDIERs.-The Richmond
correspondent of the Memphis Appeal, in his
letter Of the 9th ult., writes:
Not more than one half of the wounded
Sontherners will get 10 Richmond, for the good
Samariians along the lines Of the Orange and
Alexandria and Virginia Central railroads
are docking daily to the stations as the trains
pass by, begging the privilege Of carrying to
their ! m some one or more Of the brave
defenders Ct Virginia. Here the competition
for the offices Of kindness and attention is yerv
strong, aud last night l saw at the outermost
car shed of the Central road, a full mile from
the depot, large numbers OF citizens, not mem.
bers OF the committee. who were waiting with
carriages and l,tters the mere chance Of being
able to have a poor wounded soldier under
their roof. This is nothing to the credit Of
Richmond; 1t is inst as it should be, but it
is just what the hospi,able people of Mem.
phis or Mobile or New Orleans would do If
q great battle had been fought near by and the
victory had been won at The expense Of hun.
dreds Of dreadful wounds, in addition 10 beans
of slain. ~

greater intensity. 1t will only be when their
vast army and powerful navy, coming down
to invest our commercial capital-a prize
scarcely less important than the conquest and
possession of the whole adjacent confederate
territory, the all absorbing goal of their am
bition and cupidity-shaIl have been routed
and driven off in disgrace and dismay, that we
may expect peace, with the recognition of our
rights as a independent contederacy. But
if, however, from other causes, Louisiana should
be spared the terrible trials of another inva-
sion, no bad results can possibly follow the
adoption of the precautionary measures rec
commended, and your ExceIlency and the State,
whose future defence is conided to you, will
have the proud satisfaction Of having done
your duty. f

WHAr RUSSELL SAID Of THE BATTLE OF Ma
SAssAs.-1he Washington correspondent o
the Baltimore Exchange, in his letter of Jul,
"a, writes.
Mr.. Russell, Of the London Times. states
that the loss in killed and wounded on the Fed
erals must amour TO twelve thousand, and
that the loss of the Confederates will proba.
bly, reach four thousand. Hel states that his.
tory records no such defeat for the past cen.
tnry-no route SO utter and complete as that OF
the Federal forces. The fighting ofthe Sonth,
ern. men, he says, was magnificent. They fred
with the precision Of veterans. They would
fall to permit their artillery to fire, and then
rising, discharge their mnskets and charge
bayonets in splendid order. Some of their
evolations were superb, and performed With
perfect rapidly, GOODNESS aud discipline.

With her locks Of sunny hair:
For the girl in whose loving eye the light
Is dimmed by the swelling tear,
AS she looks on the uniforms new and bright
That her gallant sweethearts wear.
