The Press.

None can be more jealous of the liberty Of the
press than we are, yet at time like this, the ut
most prudence is demanded the part Of the South
ern press. There can be no doubt that in the anx.
iety to crafty the public taste for news most if not
oil the Southern presses may have erred, but in
some points the daily press has been egregousy at
fault The publication of arrival Of vessels in Con-
federate ports with munitions Of war, &c, and the
escape of individuals from the North often times
giving the names of the parties, their mode Of es
cape, &c. cannot, we think, be condemned too high
ly. From all we can learn, at any rate, it is posi-
lively affirmed by intelligent parties from the North
that Lincoln has his e,nissaries all through the
sou.h-that every important fact is communicated
North in a few days, and that nothing scarcely es-
capes their vigilance. Under such circumstances
how important it is that the press carefully avoid
publications which must certainly enure to the ben
eft Of the enemy. Can it be true that Lincoln has

Intemperance In the Army.

The Richmond Enquirer has the following just
and sensible observations on this subject. 1t is
"bitter mockery" to punish drunken private and
Enquirer says:
Zone Of the duties which will devolve upon Gov.
ernment during the winter suspension of hostlities
and which may best be attended to at that time,
will be an enquiry into the habits of the officers of
the army. as to sobriety. with stern dismissal of
those whose vicious indulgences disqualify them
for their posts We are sorry to say there is too
much necessity for insttutins this enquiry. Itisa
bitter mockery to arrest drunken private, whose
fault is confined to himself and leave unreproved
the uaudn officer whose fault involves the use.
fulness, and the comfort and even the lives of his
command. The Rawlings of the besotted soldier in
the guard house are far less discreditabe to the
service and far less omnous of evil than the revel-
ries of the General in his &C mfortable quarters
Drunkenness is vice to which many good and brave
and gifted men fall victims bat when they do, how
cver the necessity IS to be regretted, nothing re-
mains but to get rid of them The dead timber must
be cleared away. If drunkard Is of any use in
the world except the trial of mems patience and
womans too, i, is yet to be found out But the last
place for him is that which puts him in command
of others. How can he take care of multitude,
when he is unable to control even himself? Imagine
an officer called upon to issue orders at time when
he gobns in the air. and snakes and rats crawl
ing over his couch! lma.in him scanning a field
when his eyes red and swimming, and covered
with mists! Hear him issning the word of COM
mand when his tongus doubles and his senses reel |!
To such victims Of such vice We would appeal hv
all their pride, ambition, love of country regard for
their soldiers, to set worthier example. Such as
are welded to their ways, should either see, or be
shown, the necessity Of giving place to sober men.

Gen. Lew. Wallace On Negro
EnlistmentS.
4 CHANGE TO BE MADE IN THE
WAR POLICY.

Major- General Lew. Wallace, one of H.
diana's bravest and best, was serenaded in
Washington City few nights ago. A big
crowd congregated, and Lew. Wallace was
called on for speech ~ Ir
On making his appearance on the balco-
ny, General Wallace was greeted with up
roarious cheering, which was continued
after almost every sentence of his speech.
He said he accepted the compliment, not
for himself, but for bis brave comrades he
had left behind him, and who had won for
him the distinction his friends were
conferring He supposed they were mostly
Tndianians who were rendering the compile
ment, ana he had peculiar pride in accept
ing it as such. There were peculiar circum-
stances under which Indianians had enter
ed the war. They were under cloud !;
they had been pronounced towards by au-
thority. They had written history differ

honor to lead had sworn, as they took their
banners, to remember Buena Vista, and
wipe out the stain. The other day they had
returned those banners to the halls from
whence they came. At Fort Donelson they
had been shot to shreds. At Pittsburg
Landing they were almost shot away, and

Scouting In western virginia

A letter was received yesterday at the

of the l4th Virginia Infantry, conveying
the most exciting intelligence from Roane
and jackson counties. ... ..s-
Last Sunday week a load of groceries
belonging to DR.. Chapman of Spencer,
Roaue county, while on its way to Ravens
wood, was captured by hugh Kiger, Noah
Tanner and Andy Dusky, three notorious
Rangers Col. Frost, upon ascertaining the
fact, sent out a squad of Captain Rowan 8
cavalry from Ravenswood, under command
of Lieut.. Dawson, with orders to burn the
houses Of the three men named. The order
was promptly executed.
On Thursday of last week Colonel Frost
received information of other outrages com
mitted by the Rangers, and again sent out
a squad. The squad was fred upon by a
forcs of at least sixty Rangers, and one OF
the cavalrymen was shot and lnortally
wounded, while another was wounded by
his horse when the attack was made. The
cavalry found large quantity of bread
baked al the house OF Henry Shepherd, a
violent rebel, and Ranger, whose house
they burned. The house OF Abel V. rye

EZ9- Some time since we published the
following brief editorial query:
"a QUESTION FOR CONSERVATIVE NEwsPA-
PERs."
"You are forever telling us, gentlemen,
of the selt-styled Conservative press, that
the Government must put down this rebel
lion according to the Constitution. Now,
we assert that no measure, no policy me-
cessary to put down the rebellion, can be
contrary to the Constitution. Suppose,
now, that you should discover that it is
impossible 10 crush out the rebellion by the
forms of the Constisution, according to
your Interpretation, would you be for let
ting the rebellion take its course in that
event, and submitting to It's oppression p
The interrogatory has travelled from one
end of the loyal States to the other, being
copied by nearly every Union newspaper in
the country. 1t has received no reply. The
conservative press is silent, and that silence
is to us most significant. Is it wrong to
infer that the conservatives would rather
see the rebellion triumph and the MON de-
stroyed, than resort to the universal confis-
cation of rebel property, and the seizure of
the slaves of every rebel id the South, who
are now feeding and supporting the rebel

owner having Acknowledged that be had
fed the Rangers, and would do it again.
After the return of the squad, Col. Frost,
at the head of Rowan's cavalry and body
of infantry started from Ravenswood on
the double quick toward the scene of the
engakement, but the enemy had gone. The
country, however, was thoroughly secured.
The houses of Joseph Smith and NJ. J. Kes-
ter, both violent rebels, were burned to the
ground, and Geo. Downes, William Harris,
Seth Rogers, Newton Radcliffe, and James
W. Morgan were captured.
Col. Frost thinks the force of the enemy
is daily increasing along the river counties
and it is his opinion the most rigorous
measures are necessary to put down the
guerrillas.

SKETCH OF GEN. BAYARb.-B Brigadier Gen
eral George ID. Bayard, the gallant cavalry
officer of Burnside's army, died of his wounds
received at the battle of Fredericksburg on
Saturday last. He was native of New York,
and was appointed cadet to the West Point
Military Academy in 1852. He graduated on
the 30th of June. 1856, and on the lst of July,
1856, was appointed second lieutenant of the
Frst United States cavalry. On the Goth Of
August, 1861, he was promoted to captaincy
of his regiment, now known as the Fourth
United States cavalry. He was allowed leave
of absence to take command of the First Penn
sylvania cavalry, and in General Order No.
63, Washington, June 30, he is announced as
Brigadier General of volunteers, commanding
cavalry, He has made several brilliant cav
airy dashes both before and since his appoint
ment as General, and being young man, gave
promise of great military ability in the future
His loss will be much regretted by his COM
mand He is said to have beed betrothed to
beautiful young lady. Gen. Bayard was
| wounded in the face by poisoned arrow by
Indians on the frontiers, from the effects Of
| which he had never recovered, and which his
physicians predicted would ultimately cause
his death. He often expr sssed a determination
never to die from that cause if he could die in
the battles of his country. He has met the
fate and secured the fame he coveted.
