found no cruelties surprising those which
the rebels perpstrated in the late battle Of
Bulls Run. They seemed completely lost
to All humanity, ana to have been pos
sessed Of the spirit Of devils. We are told
that during the aght they carried American
flags to deceive our men, and when small
SQUADS that had got separated from their
regiments approached these flags, they were
fred upon and slaughtered. The rsbsls

BY reference to our Telegraph, IL will be
seen that the Rebels had the panic as well
as our troops. The whole occurrence re-
minds US Of story the late Major GEinn,
who formerly lived in this city, was fond
Of telling. Il vas as follows:
A number Of years ago, when the Major
was stationed with his regiment some
where near the Rocky Mountains, he went
out with an Indian to skate on the river
While the Major and his red friend were
gliding along the ice, they discovered q
large grizzly bear quarter Of mile of
eyeing them. Ithappened that they were
armed with rifles and the Major proposed
that they should skate up and Ere at his
bearshiP. They accordingly approached as
close 10 the bear as they dared, then fred
at him, and wheeled around and skated
away for their lives. Said the Major,
Aflcr We had skated with an cur might
for about half q mile We locked around
cautiously 10 see how near the the bear lad
gained when We saw to our surprise
black spot on The ice about mile Of, which
proved to be the bear scampering in the
opposite direction, and We came to The con-
elusiOn the bear vas as badly frightened
as We we're"
Is not this parallel case to the mutual
scare Of Manassas Junction2

RECRUITING IN NEW YoRK.-The re-
duction of the standard from FIVE feet
four aud a half to FIVE feet three has not
had the effect which it was expected TO
have. of increasing the number of re-
cruits. although a great proportion of
those enlisted since the reduction would
have been refused under the old regula-
ton. Not more than ten men were book
ed in New York for general service last
week. and the regimental officers were
no more successful. A few men. enlisted
in Philadelphia. Rochester. Buffalo aud
Boston, were transferred to Governor
Island during the week. Reports from
the latter city state that men are leaving
the volunteers to join the regulars. but
business does not seem TO be any better
on tina. account. as very few men have
been enlisted in Boston since June.-N

pfs- The Richmond Examiner has latter


ly contained several vindictive articles
against the Hon. Alexander q. Stephens, in
which it makes known to the world is oppo-
sition TO his election to the Vice Presidency,
Mt the election under the permanent Constitu-
ton. The exceeding bitterness of the Elk
aminer depriEes it of all effect, for how far
may it be presumed to oyerdo the thing, when
it charges that "Aleck Stephens" is the
pet of all the corrupt stock-jobbers and
spectators which infest the capital of the
new government? AS the Enquirer, of the
same city, very happily remarks, if such be
the case it is tribute TO one of the purest
and most incorruptible public men which
could hardly have been expected from such a
source But it is not true The Examiner
has been deceived, or else it has allowed its
intense hostility to men " not the foremost
in the act of separation" to so warp its
Judgment and bias its sense of Justice, as to
thus villify one of the purest as well the
greatest, of Southern statesmen. 1t is not
our purpose to enter into an elaborate de-
fence of Alexander II. Stephens. He does
not require it at our hands We have for
several years past differed with him politi-
calIy. But we simply assert the truth of his
tory, that public man, North or South,
has borne higher character, during pub
lie career of near quarter of century, for
answering integrity, than Alexander H.
Stephens. Further, he is Mississippi's unan-
imous choice for the second Office in the
Confederacy, along with her own distin-
guished son, the country's choice for the
first position.
In the same article, the Examiner charges
that Mr.. Stephens resisted the independence
of the South, and sought to bring her under
the yoke of Black Republcanism. A charge
so monstrous is certainly its own refutation
Even the Enquirer, journal of well known
secession proclivities, when the Examiner
was unheard of, in reply to the outrageously
absurd charge, is force to remark shat ere
~ man nor holding Office under the Confederate
Government, formerly ADVOCATED the preserea-
ton Of the FeaeraI Union upon the same prinei-
pies as those apo,eed By Ar. Stephen, last year
The only difference Jet5ceen Aim and a majority
Of them is, thai they aJaadoned all hope Of OBJ
tanning Their rights IN tie Union a little sooner
than he did,
We have frequently protested against these
unnecessary discussions, at this time. The
article in the Examiner, doubling as it does
the loyalty of Mr.. Stephens and, of course,
all who thought as he did, is as effectually
giving ''aid and comfort to the enemy" az
any sry could render from Richmond. Forth
nately, the evidence is overwhelming that
the Southern people are united, despite the
croakings of the stay-at-home warriors, such
as the Examiner The South has way to
test the loyalty of her sons this crisis, aud
he blood of Barlow (the last Union man in
Georgia is as sacred in her sight as the most
crimson stream that flows from the wounds
of an antediluvian secessionist.-F seks6urg
