The hotel registers contain the names Os hun
drsdI of secession officers. All appear to have
written their names in characters su ficepty large

Each man wed with the other ip making his name
more conspicuous. The titles attac he'd to be tai

tension.
In conversing with many Secessonists Of this
place and other localities, the theme would ocr r.
sionaliy turn upon the respective merits of the
several commanders of both armies. All appear To
have profound respect for General Mcclellan. OF
their own army, Generals Les and jackson are
worshipped as though they We're deities. They de
nominate Jackson As their dsliverer. They assign
the cause of the defeats of the Union army to he
fact that the people OF the North imme diately be-
come dissatisfied with their Generals when they
meet with slight defeat, and a removal or trans
fer is made. The men, therefore, cannot have full
confidence in a commander with whom they have
little or no acquaintance.
In the rebel army, the men endeavor to centre
around their General He is retained if he proves
to be good General, although be may meet with
occasional reverseS. The rebels attribute their sue
cess, in a great easure, to this.
A week ago how many there were in this com
nunity who ehuckled at being wealthy men, men
who had made money by disposug OF their goods
to the Confederate army. Crednous fools! They
now laugh less. They are detected, they are sick
No wonder, when they hold the Confederate Scrip,
on loyal ground. Things have gone differently from
what they supposed they would go. Uncle sam is
not so weak i'll the knees as they thought him to be-
He can walk and when forced to, run in pursuit oi
the enemy.
Many who sold them wares would now willingly

assuredly do him an immense amount o! good.
