mineral diggiDgs of Messrs. John Harrington
and Peter Holman, near Southern Avenue, only
q short distance north of Mr.. Kempf's store,
and only twenty or thirty rods from the point
Of the bluff at that place. They came from
Missouri about the 1st of September, and com
menced prospecting a few days afterward.
The miners who saw them commencing work
on such an apparently unfavOrable spot laughed
at them. They began where others had quit,
on bearing range that had been followed out
80 near the raVine that the rock was nearly
bare, and found their first large pieces Of min
eral within two feet of the top Of the ground.
Indeed, they are not yet below all the roots Of
the trees and shrubs growing there, but they
have sold seventeen thoussnd pounds, and have
about five thousand more taken out. They
have followed the minerals about thirty feet
deep. and the creviee is nearly filed with min
eral, some Of the pieces weighing several hun
dred pounds. 1t Is yet uncertain how exten

BILE there may be one hundred thousand pounds
or more. We understands the crevice Is upon

worked out many years ago.

General Beauregard at Issue with his
Gunariora.
LFrOm the Charleston Mercury.1

lFrom the Charleston Mercury.1
We look upon the General Order of General
Beauregard, upon the victory of General Evans,
as one of the most significant documents which
has appeared since the war began. It is not
merely a congratulat1on and memorial of a
victory, but it is an Intentional eulogy upon a
pOlicy-a policy Of attack; and condemna-
tion also Of polieS-a policy of retreat and
defense. This Order, coupled with the intro
duction of his plan of an active, aggressive
campaign into Maryland, and the taking Of
Washington, which the President rejected, into
his report of the battle of Manassas, are clear
manifestations of q disapprobation of the de-
fensive policy of the Confederate States. In
this Order, he says to the army: "Under the
inspiration of just cause, defending all we
hold dear on earth, or worth living for,
and with the merciful aid Of tho God of
battles, we can and must drive our invaders
from the soil of Virginia, despite their
numbers and their long-accumuIated war
equipage." That his army by this victory
must abe assured of their ability to cope
successfully with the foe arrayed against them
in whatever forco he may offer battle," and
that emo odds must discourage or make them
| doubtful of victory" When it is remembered
that General Evans was ordered to retreat
should the enemy appear in force, aud that in
stead Of rebuke General Beauregard sends
forth this order to the whole army, praising
and approving of his attacking the enemy,
there can be no doubt of his views and opin-
ions. He does not shrink from "odds" on the
Potomac. He does not doubt His ability with
bis army "to cope successfully with the foe
He thinks that his army "can and must drive
our invaders from the soil of Virginia" i
left I'd his discretion, would he not long age
have advanced on the enemy2

port of the battle of Manassas to be printed

att seems that the steamer Fred Lorens,

the shot fell sn around the Graham, one OF

brethren are in the field-marching, fighting,
standing guard in Virginia, Kentucky and

wives, children and parents who remain,
have something else to do besides looking
anxiously in the papers for news or sadly at

must pray for their safety and success. We
have seen it in figures, it is true, that the
strength of the Union exceeds by far that OF
the rebels but, after all, unless God smiles
on our cause it is lost. Just as it is, that
cause may be imperiled by the injustice and
pride of those who have espoused it, and the
nation may be BUNDLED to the dust in pun
ishment of public corruption. The heart
sickens at the accounts of public plundering
by those who make the war ladder to for.
tune--at the ISLANDERS and calumnies to which
it gives rise-at the violence, drunkenness,
blasphemy that in too many places accom-
pany it. We that stay at home must pray
that God may not regard our iniquities nor
visit us in wrath, but that he may strengthen
the arms of our soldiers and upheld our cause
against the violence of enemies and the
treachery of pretended friends. The Home
Guards must fight with their prayers Gin.
