force WAS from 5000 to 5000. Our loss
in the battle is set down al 25 killed and

killed are the following:
Capt b. p. Anderson, OF the Lee bat

Lieut.. Lewis s. Thompson, Of the Ma

Of Wheeling.
Among the wounded are Lieut.. Col.

NorE.-As illustrative Of the importance of
the consistent maintenance of principles, and
the dangerous consequences of their practical
concession which was the theme of the first
article-it is announced in the Charleston .Ner.
cuSy OF the 18th instant, that Seen. Halleck.
in Missouri, has ordered that Confederate sol.
diers, taken in arms, are not TO be treated as
prisoners Of war but punished as criminals
and be shot, or be less severely punished, &c,
cording to the rules of war" Ii has ever been
40 i'll the history Of the world. When usurpa
ton grows insocnt, from the imperfect vindica,
ton OF rightful sovereignty, it attempts to en-.
force, with greater sternness, its tyranous au
thority and assumes all the sanctions of sa,
cred majesty. Either the States are sovereign,
and the Government at Washington a usurpa.
ton, and oil its subjects, in hostility TO any
OF the States are traitors; or that Gov
ernment is sovereign, and its opposers in
arms, are traitors. Sovereignty, one and in.
diEisible, is so essential to the existence of So.
cety, that where its sacred dignity is not yindi,
Gated, it must give place to any usurpation,
however vile or illegitimatc, which supplies i:s
place. CANIi,iUS.
