Gen. Reauregard.

A correspondent OF the Richmond wing, writ
ing from Camp Pickens, gives the following
sketch of Beauregard:
/ have had the pleasure of a good look at
Beauregard at his headquarters. They were at
tea; he sitting with his cap on, and his aids
about him. Col. Jones is our Chief of Artillery,
and invited me to supper with them, but as had
supped, / declined. Beauregard is small, well
knit figure of man, with sanguineo bilious
face, thoughtful eye, that seems looking above
the horizon of other mems mental operations,
and withal impresses you with the confidence of
one perfectly selfreliant and selfpoised. He is
plain and simple in manner, prompt in action,
and commands the entire respect of all about him.
/ noticed that after tea officer approached him
on business, made his communication, was
listened to, replied to, and disappeared all as
promptly and in as short time as it could have
been done. Our camp has assumed a much
more military and systematic rOrm since his ar
rival. His military character and energy have
already stamped itself upon the heretofore singu-
lar mass of men, muscle and bayonets that
were assembled here. Bonham, / take it, is a
Jack all trades of soldier, full of fun, fight
and frolic-a gentleman, an Ex-Congressman;
would go dancing joyously, with the eight OF
battle" upon his face, into the fray utterly
regardless of consequences; whereas Beauregard
sees the enemy as the Highland hunter scents the
deer-is wary, cool. and wise, and when the game
thinks he is safe and has deceived his pursuer, is
suddenly struck as by lightning. So, / think
will the enemy feel the sting of his genius His
Gallo blood gives warmth to a nature that other
wise might be phlegmatic. He has peculiarly
which is always characteristic of a mind capable
of enlarged and comprehensive scope; he seems
distracted, withdrawn from the ordinary incidents
and occurrences that occupy the attention of peo-
pie generally; hence he is either looking down with
thoughtful air, stands with his head erect, il
scanning objects far beyond the attention of those
around him. Although small of stature, Colonel
o. says he is the most powerfully muscular
man that he almost ever saw. Well, | must ex
cuse myself in thus dwelling upon this our hero
as / am sure the day will come when the muse
of history will either celebrate his fame in heI
eternal annals, or consign him to everlasting OBJ
security. He is no ordinary parsonage, and car
not remain a negative. His is purpose to do OIL
die in its largest meaning. When Lord Nelson
remarked that victory or Westminster Abbey
should be his, ON his way to Trafalgar, his pur
pose was not more lofty, his patriotism was no
more exalted, than is that which fires the heart o
this glowing emanation of tropical growth, thl
earnest combination of the Franco American

Especial Dispatch to the Cincinnati Gazette.l
GRAFTON, June 28-Col. Wallace sends Gen.
Mcclellan the following statement of the affair
near Cumberland:
have been accustomed to sending my mount
ed pickets, thirteen in all, to different posts along
the several approaches to Cumberland. Finding
it next to impossible Yesterday to get reliable in
formation respecting the enemy, united the thir-
teen, and directed them if possible to get to
FIankforttown, midway between this place and
Romney, and see if the rebel troops were there.
they went within a mile of the place, and found
il full of cavalry.
In returning they overlook a party of horse
men, and at once charged them, routing and
driving them back more than mile, killing eight
of them and securing seventeen horses.
Corporal Hayes, who in command of my
men, was desperately wounded with sabre cuts
and bullets.
Taking him back, they halted about one hour
and were then attacked by the enemy, who were
reinforced to about seventy five men. Theattack
so sudden that they abandoned the horses
and crossed to a small island at the mouth of
Pattersons creek.
The charge of the rebels was bold and conf
dent, yet twenty three fell under the fire of my
picket, close about and on the island.
Ny men finally were driven off and scattered,
each man for himself All are in camp now
Corporal Hays of Company A, is wounded, but
recovering. John c. Hollingsworth of Company
B, is dead He was taken prisoner and brutally
murdered Three companies went to the ground
this morning and recovered everything belonging
to the picket except few horses
The enemy were engaged all night in boxing
up their dead Two of their officers were killed.
They laid out twenty three corpses in the porch
of neighboring farm house. We shall bury
Hollingsworth to morrow.
l have positive information that four regiments
of rebels are in Romney, under Col. Mcdonald.
The report of the skrmish sounds like fiction,
bu. it is not exaggerated. The fight was really
one of the most desperate on record, and abound
ed in instances of wonderful daring and GOODNESS.

merciless soldiery, citizens robbed, assassinated
and in view of these facts,
ResolUed, That the action of the State Legis-
lature in passing the declaration of independence
forming q military leauge was unconstitutional
and not binding loyal citizens; that in order to
avoid conflict with brethren a committee be
appointed to prepare memorial asking the con

| The Constitution of the Confederate States is
unpopular in Georgia, because of the absence of
declaration making the three-fifths black the

says without such basis the Constitution can not

more in the power of the counties with slaves

HAeERsrowN, MD, June 29.-Major Double
day saw party Of rebel troops clustering around
some woods upon a high hill opposite Williams
port, and threw "a pound shot at them this af
ternoon, when they scampered over the crest of
the hill.

sisting of the lst Wisconsin, 4th Connecticut and
18th Pennsylvania regiments were issued this
afternoon.
Lieutenant Elder, of Major Doubleday's COM
mand, learned from the party who brought in a
flag of truce yesterday, that the Virginians are
forced to feed their horses exclusively on corn
They have no old hay, and acknowledged that
not only hay, but provisions of all kinds were
very scarce. They said that every thing in the
valley of Virginia was literally exhausted.
1t is believed that our troops will cross the Pc
tomac, partly at Post and partly at Sheppard's
Ford, nine miles below. Both are excellent fords
All are inspired at the idea of forward move
ment

not so well equipped ours They are under
very strict discipline, but seem Discontinued.
Two regiments, one of Alabamians and one of
Mississippians reached Harper's Ferry this morn
ing and destroyed the balance of the trusse
work of the railroad bridge. They then came
over to the Maryland shore, seized all the boats
they could lay their hands on and either broke
them up or took them over the river. All the
Union men of Harper's Ferry were again driven
out.

M EDlCAL.
SCrOfula, or Kings Evil,

Is a constitutional disease, a corruption of the
blood, by which this fluid becomes Initiated, weak
and poor. Being in the circulation, it pervades
the whole body, and may burst out in disease on
any part of il. No organ is free from its attacks,
nor is there one which it may not destroy. The
scrofulous faint is variously caused by mercurial
disease, low living, disordered unhealthy food,
impure air. filth and filthy habits, the depressing
vices, and, above ALL by the venereal infection.
Whatever be its origin, it is hereditary in the con-
st;tution, descending ''from parents to children
unto the third and fourth generation" indeed, it
seems to be the rod of Him who saws: al will
visit the niquities of the fathers upon their chill
dren."
Its effects commence by deposition from the
blood of corrupt ulcerous matter, which, in
the lungs, liver and internal organs, is termed tu
bercles; in the glands, swellings; and on the sur
face, eruptions or sores. This foul corruption,
which genders in the blood, depresses the ener-
gies of life, so that scrofulOus constitutions not
only suffer from scrofulous complaints, but they
have far less power to withstand the attacks of
other diseases; consequently vast numbers perish
by disorders which, although not scrofuous in
their nature are still rendered fatal by this faint
in the system. Most of the consumption which
decimates the human family has its origin directly
in this scrofulous contamination; and many de
structve diseases of the liver, kidneys brain, and
indeed, of all the organs, arise from or are ag
gravated by the same cause.
One quarter of all our people are scrofulous
their persons are invaded by this lurking infec
ton, and their health is undermined by it, TC
cleanse il from the system we must renovate the
blood by an Alternative medicine and invigorats
it by healthy food and exercise. Such medicin,
we supply in

ANY of our readers afflicted with scrofula
or scrofulous complaints, will do well to read the
remarks in our advertising columns respecting it..
But little of the nature of this disorder has been
known by the people, and the clear exposition of
it there given, will prove acceptable and useful.
We have long admired the searching and able
manner in which DIR. Aver treats every subject he
touches; whatever has his attention at all, has
great deal Of it; he masters what he undertakes,
and no one who has particle of feeling for his
afflicted fellow men, can look with indifference
upon his labors for the sick. Read what he says
of scrofula, and see in how few words and how
clearly he tells us more than all have known
of this insidious and fatal malady.-Sun, Phila-

Compound Extract Of Sarsaparilla,

The most efiectual remedy which the medical
skill of our times can devise for this everywhere
prevailing fatal malady. 1t is combined from the
most active remedials that have been discovered
for the expurgation of the foul disorder from the
blood, and the rescue of the system from its de-
structve consequences. Hence it should be en-
poyed for the cure of not only Scrofula, but also
those other affections which arise from it, such
as ERUPTIvE and SKIN DISEASES, Sr. ANTHONY S
