- ANoTnER NEW REGIMENT.-0n Saturday last an-
other regiment was organized at Camp Moore, hy
the election of field officers, and will be off to the
warin very short time. Hon. Leon D. Marks,
late member of the State Convention from Caddo
parish, was unanimously elected Colonel, and we
learn that the other officers elected are also gentle
men distinguished soldiers Col. Marks is q
native of this State, OF as good Southern fighting
stock as ever lived in any country. we have
known him from infancy, and that he is able, cool
and determined, we eau freely bear witness. He
has also had the advantage of thorough military
education, at the Kentucky Military Institute, has
seen service from his childhood up, having beenail
through the Mexican war, and on the field in Fir-
ginia eiace hostites commenced We therefore
foretell brilliant career for this new regiment,
and whenever its Colonel has an opportunity on
the field of battle, we feel confdentitwill be heard
from.

e WEDNESDAY MORNING, APRIL, ,23, 1852.
For THE HosrITAL AT OxYoKD.-We are re-
quested by Rev. John 7. Campbell, agent OF the
Oxford Hospital, TO make an appeal 10 the public
ar articles which our sick soldiers within its pre-
cncts require. This hospital occupies the build
.ings of the University Of Mississippi andwh we
say that out Of heelpe hegtdged patients treated
there within the past six weeks, only for1tyttee
have died, we have said enough, the reader will
doubtless admit, to show how remarkably efficient
and successful is The system Of cure which has
been adopted. It is not a Louisiana hospital IN
particular, but no discrimination is made, and sick
soldiers are received into it and treated no matter
from what Confederate State they may hail.
Mv. Campbell has full authority to secure prompt
transportation and he is daily sending olt articles
contributed to the place Of destination. He asks
in particular sugars, sytups. rice, fruits, pure
liquors Of all kinds, teas pickles, preserves,
ieiea, cordials and medicines, and also summer
clothing and bed linen, such as blankets comfort
ers, sheets, pillows, towels, under clothing, Old
linen, etc, etc. These articles may be sent to
Messrs Arthur & Co., corner of Canal and Ncw
Leyee Streets where they will be thankfully re-
ceived and promptly forwarded Sugar, ETC., may
be sent by the bogshead if the donors please. Re-
member the sick, and cast your bread and sugar

that, in the Timing, the enemy shot ii rapidly
as we did; but, after an hour or two, rahfsd
twice to their once; and, before the battle wsa
ended, We shot three times to their once The;
reason Of the difference was that the enemy used
rifles, which became foul and very 10 load,
while our men had ymnsketa. This ID u very int

{. WHAT VIRGINIA HAS DoNE.--We have it from
good authority that since the commencement Of
this war, the Commonwealth of Virginia has fur
snished arms and armament. sufficient to equip
go 600 men. This is exclusive of arms captured at
Norfolk or Harpsr's Ferry. Virginia has done her
part well, and it is time that her revilers should
cease their slanderon slang. columbus Sun.
& To this we will add that, although nearly half
the State is oyerrun by the enemy ginia has
furnished her full proportion of troops to the Con
fsderate army. We fully agree with the Sun that
it is quite time the slanderers of Virginia cease
their unworthy abuse. Virginia, also, though
heavily in debit has expended several millions of
dollars out Of her own treasury for the public de-
fence. ~ n s; &

RUMoR.-In order to keep orr readers
posted, as to what is going on, we notice
the fact that the Memphis Avalanche con-
tains private letter from Nashville of the
date of the 25th, with a detailed account
of the capture on the body of negro on
the Saturday previous To the battle, of
papers sent from Gen. Crittenden to the
enemy, revealing to them the character of
our Notifications at Mill Spring, the num-
Der of our troops, and the amount of pro-
visions on hand. The circumstances of
the capture are given with minute detail.
The papers, as the story goes, were deli
vered t. Col. Battle just on the eve of the
battle, and there was not time to examine
them until the battle was over. They
were exposed to a consultation of officers
held at Mrs. Roberts four miles from
Monticello, where they had been ordered
to halt by Critteuden. This was on Mon
day morning. Whilst the consultation
was being held, Gen. Crittendeu rode off
hastily to Monticello. When the regi-
ments arrived there, he was found in his
bed at the Houston Hotel, deeply intoxi-
Gated, that he was then arrested, and held
as a prisoner. This rumor being already
made public, we give it as it stands. A
large party at Nashville refused to give it
credit, whilst many others did, and the
greatest excitement prevailed there on
that account 1t has not been confirmed
by subsequent intelligence and seems in
consistent with the dispatch of the 2sth
from Nashville, given elsewhere in our
columns
