the right wing Of the enemy gave way, they
were ordered to charge the batteries in
their Font. which they executed in gallant
style, led by Gen. Bonham.
When the chnrse was made, the enemy
promptly retired, and the loss Of omr regi-

lAdvertisement.1
A CARR

In the Ledger OF the2Ith inst, NAV be found
an advertisement, which sMAcKs OF SswARp.
Ism ON SMALL SCALE, signed JAS. r. MAsuL
IN "hich nc seems 10 manifest no little concern
ABOUT hts protege, one j. NJ. Beattie. IL the
readers OF the Ledger knew the author of this
advertisement as well as | do, it would be un.
necessary Tor me, or any Of the gentlemen who
signed the card he refers to, to r,py. III
believed that the readers Of the Le1iocr agyr.
RALLY, had anything like an adequate concep.
tica OF the real character Of the author of tbis
advertisement, would not reply, but az am
confident they have not therefore, I will not
pass It by, as II and It's author deserves. for
some who only see him on certain occasions
may even regard him sans rsproacie. Thoss
who are aware that Messrs. Moblcy, Robertson
and Weener are friendly with Beattie, and
those who are aware of the circumstances con-
nected with the publication Of our card, will.
imagine, readily pepceive, that in the t,oo
nrst lines of the advertisement, its author is
guilty OF asserting two very distinct ugly things.
The readers Of the Ledger, can call them by
whatever other name they please after word
OF explanation. In the two first lines Of this
advertisement, IL will be observed that its au-
thor asserts that the "enemies" of Beattie have
taken advantage Of his (Beattie's) absence"
he being at present on q viCit to his friends and
relatives at the "Seat Of War" to publish a
Gard (which f:om its very face Con tains gar,
bied statement Of a conversation with some
person or persons unknown at Pleasant Hill,
and TO which no exception was taken at the
time by these parties or any other" IL Is
true that two Of the signers Of the Carl do
not claim the dis ingushed privilege Of being
friends OF Beattie, and it Is equally true that
they would do him 10 intentional Injustice il
Is also true that Messrs. Mobley, Robertson and
Weener are ON friendly terms viii, Beattie, and
hat no one Is better acquainted with this fact
than Jas. X. Magill. What motive could we
have for taking advantage Of his absence p
He (Bcattie) haa never been regarded We y
dangerous individual. The author of the adj.
vertisement under consideration, knew when
he pennsd his advertisement that three of the
signers OF the Card wese friendly, IL not init.
mate with beattie, one 10 q member If tho
same Church. Beattie was not absent from
the State when the card was carried 70 the Ed
itor Tor publication he did not leave until

Guard on Saturday before he left, at which

the matter. Some of his (Beattie'O friends
were present when the Gard was read, and
heard the committee appointed, and were seen
conversing not only with Beat,ie, but with
Nagill, the next day.
Now will ask if Bea,tie had 10, heard from
the Companyy Did he not know that the card
would appear i'll the next issue OF the Ledqer
and that Committee had been appoint ted to
investigate the Gaze? He certainly knew this
before he lett Cor the "seat OF war" Was he
not advised by gentlcman-not Magill-to
remain If Innocent and stand his trial? II he
was innocent, why did he not remain, viudicate
his character, and then 90 to the "seat of ,car?"
DID not this hurry him off to the "Seat of .car?"
This distinguished author knew and now knows
To whom Beattie's conversation was addressed
at Pleasant Hill, he was told by one who ,cds
not "dn enemy" Of Beattie the name of the la.
dy. He knew this lady was and is now as res
spectacle as any lady in the District We
would not have published the card if Beatte
had not denied our statement-he even gave
one gentleman rritten denial. Now | ask
any one unprejudced, how we were to set our
selves right before the public only through the
Ledger. Mngill very well knows that our card
was published simply in self defence, not for
the purpose OF gratifying personal mall gnity"
have one suggestion to make TO the author
oil this most extraordinary advertisement, viz :
ylndicate your o,rn character when it :. YER.
BALLY assailcd.
Now in conclusion, will ask the little read.
crs oi the Ledger to work out the foil owing
simple proposition If a man inditcs t,co rery
"gty things in the two first lines of au advcr.
tsement, what would be the probable number
