We regret to hear from the Charleston Mercury
that Gen. Bonham has resigned his commission in
the Confederate service. He considered himself
unjustly treated by the authorities. Gen. B. was
one of the first who from our sister State to
beat back the invader, and he will ever be warmly
cherished by every Virginia heart. :a %f 7'
We are panied, too, to hear that Gen. jackson,
(Stonewall) for similar reasons, has been induced
to resign his commission in the army. In him the
service loses one of the brayest of the brave-the
idol Of his,soldiers and the herald of victory. s

: IT has become fashionable to imagine
that there is something disgraceful ini being

and jeer at an enrolled squad on its way to

battle field at the, call Of his country need;
but we are not disposed to think that there

las brave and patriotic as he Phere are
many-Hho shall say not . major propor;s
tion Y-.among the. .eonsoripts whose shestts
are as fully in their eountrys cause, ana
who would as fearlessly battle for it as any
volunteer, but who have not engaged In
the war simply for the reason that their
private obligations and the necessities Of
their tdependauts; rendered it absolutely
impossible for them to do 50 without sac
|ri6ees which they had no moral right to
make and without reducing helpless per
SONS, looking to them for support, to want
and suffering. Their consciences would
not allow them to abandon their individual
obligations, and they felt that when their
country imperiously required their services,
lit would call for them in such q manner
that they would be obliged to go, and all
the responsibility of abandoning what made
them feel it necessary for them to stay at
home until the last moment, would rest
upon the government, and not upon their

endure the severe trials that they can make
