If Col. S. himself, under the peculiar and en-

had adopted such a policy, he would now be
without any command, instead of having one
of the best Regiments, in all respects, in thss

VISIT OF THE VICE PRESIDENT TO THE
WILMINGTON SWORD FACTORY.

On yesterday afternoon the Factory of Froe-
lch and Estvan was the scene Of an agreeable
incident arising out of the visit of the Hon. 4.
IL. Stephens, who made a minute inspection OF
the various manufactures of Swords, Lances and
Bayonets, carried there. After he had
gone through all the workshops, he was re-
quested by the courteous agent, Mr.. Newhof,
to lay the foundation for new sword making
machine, which he did, laying the brick ard
spreading on mortar in most workmanlike
manner taking occasion to make few grace
ful and appropriate remarks respecting the wei
fare of the Factory and its Importance to the
Confederacy. The party consisting Of the
Vice President, Joshua G. Wright, ESQ, DR..
Medway, Messrs Froelich and Newhoff, then
adjourned to the counting house, where beau
tful Sword and Lance were accepted by Mr..
Stephens, after which Mr.. Wright in an excee-
dinghy brilliant and happy tmpromptn speech,
presented the Vice President to the assembled
workmen, who received him in the most enthu-
siastic manner. Holding the Sword and Lance,
Mr.. Stephens made a spirited address, stating
that being accidentally detained here, he had
accepted this invitation to visit the Sword Fac

The crew were sent to Norfolk on Saturday,
for the purpose of being passed oyer to Fort

them to return to France. Mr. Augustine, is
on his way to Norfolk, being deputed by Col
Sing'etary, to whose gallantary the French
crew are indebted for their rescue, to induce
Gen. Huger to retain the crew that they may
be sent to their country from a Confederate
port at the public expense. After being trea-
ted by the Federal feet with so much inhu-
manity, it would be reflection on the gene

French crew to be indebted to the Federalists

OppinioTas OF the Press OF Col. Sin
sletary's Late Expedition.

The Charlotte Bulletin of the 18th in cop
pying our remarks made some days ago headed
Render Unto C@zar," SC, makes the re-
marks which follow
COL S1NGLETARY-We truly regret to learn
that the brave, humane and dashing officer,
whose name heads this notice, has been arres-
ted by order of Gen. Hill, for having gone on
an expedition without orders, but which has
resulted in way thousand times more i'm
portant than would have been the recapture of
Hatteras, the Federal soldiers there, and the
total destruction Of the fort
Had Col Singletary, instead Of saving the
officers and crew Of the French war steamer,
numbering some one hundred and forty souls,
captured Hatteras, Notwithstanding it would
have anticipated the hope aud expectation Of
others higher in command, he would have
been instantly proclaimed hero by the peo-
pie.
But he has done what will be regarded in
the eyes Of Napoleon and the people of his
realm of vast more Importance than the taking
Of fifty such places Hatteras. But, having
done so without orders, he is arrested, and, if
possible will be disgraced. So much for mill
tary etiquette
Weregret Col. Singtetary, with whom we are
unfortunately not acquainted has, by his noble
daring subjected himselfto the ordeal through
which he is doomed to pass, but we are confident
that the people, as well as the soldiers under
his command, if not the entire army, will say
well DONE" In that he will have his conso-
lation
Besides, taking all the facts into considera-
tion-and admit, for argument sake, that Col
Singletary had also recaptured Hatteras-
will the conduct of the Confederate officer and
the States be regarded on the other side of
the Atlantic, when it is known too that the
Federal feet did not or would not render any
assistance to the officers and crew of the PronY
shipwrecked off Ocracoke. The recapture of
Hatteras would be nothing compared with the
rescue of the crew of this National vessel.
We hope, therefore, Col Singletary will
De lenlently dealt with by his superior officers,
1or MS conduct and that of his officers and men,
VIII do more in the way of proving to the
Frencn people and emperor that we are noble
ana honorable race, than woull the retaking of
Hatteras' the capture of the garrison and the
destruction ofthe work
