Col. CAMPBELL.-The fall of this able officer in
the battle before Richmond on Friday last, will
awaken the deepest regret, in the minds of thou
sands in this State. The 9TH n c. State Troops on
that bloody field, completely decimated. 1t is
rumored but cannot vouch for its truth, that no
company in the regiment was left with more than
fifteen men unhurt 1t exhibited gallantry which
abs covered the living and the dead with glory.
Col Campbell fell leading on his men with the
GOODNESS, skill and intrepdiy for which he dis
tinguished. His regiment was devoted to him and
reposed entire confidence in his ability and gaantry
Col c. was a native of Iredell County, graduate
at West Point and occupied high position in the
old U. S. Army. We have heard him spoken of by
officers of the old army with much affection, and of
his high character as an officer and gentleman.

distracted.
On Sunday the whole of Longstreets, Huger's
and HILLS Divisions were the battle held await
ing an attack. The enemy opened fire about aun-
rise, but slackened his fire and kept up but deSui
tory SkrmiSh during the day. The desperate bay
onet charges spoken of by the Yankees, were not
seen by any Confederate soldiers-none OF our
troops were hoty engaged at any time except Pick
ett'S Brigade Three fourths OF our men did not
fire shot. The day was spent IN removing the
wounded of both armies to Richmond. IN sending
upwards of g. 600 stand Ct arms to the Ordnance De-
partment and medical and commissary stores to their
appropriate departments.
The eight IS pieces captured at the Fort and the
two captured by Jenkins were sent to the rear Sat-
urday night.

The Taior of our Troops.

All the accounts We have seen concur in repre-
sentlng the courage Of our troops in the conflict
near Richmond, as unsurpassed in the history of
the world. Many of the regiments have had no
pay for months and all of them are scantily cloth
cd, and have been living on half rations for some
time; but these privatons seem only to have nerV-
ed them to a more determined and desperate vaor
We hear that tie North Carolinians have especially
distinguished themselves. The language general
~ used by VrginianS even, in speaking of their
conduct, is that they have "immortalized them
selves"
The people Of the South can never be sufficiently
grateful to the brave men who are thus barring their
breasts to the fury Of our foes. They will live in
speech and in song, and in the hearts of their
trymen; and their children and children's children
while enjoying the fruits Of their sacrifices and their
valor, will be proud of their fame.

Col. Vance NOT q Parfizan-

If there be in the State genial, eStimable ard
ingenious man, that man is Col o. B VANCE
There is, perhaps, more decided in his char
acter than be is. His principles and positions are
coolly and thoroughly weighed, and, when once
chosen, he is as firm rock. But be is neither
dictatOrial nor oyerbearing towards his opponents.
No partizan rancor or abuse escapes his lips If
forced to retort on an aSSaant he uses some apt
anecdote or pleasant repartee, which exhibits the
genial temper of the man.
Since the war begun, he has known no party
We are confident that nothing could have induced
him to be the candidate of party. Nothing but
the unsolicited voice of the people, declaring their
opposition to party, and calling for reform in our
State administration could have called him forth at
this crisis. The slang of the spos party, that he
is the Holden candidate that he has lent him
self tool to party is false it Is ungener
Gus and unjust. He was first called out BY the peO
pie OF Rutherford, who know him well; and never,
until the people of eight nine Counties, and great
numbers of the people in all parts of the State called
for him, did he consent to the use of his name
TIE abuse and falsehood of the partizan press of
the State, now heaped on COL Vance, is melan-
chOly proof of the degegeracy of the times In vain
does he disclaim party in his letter. and warn his
countrymen against it in this trying crisis in vain
does he peril his life the field of battle, in defence
of the homes and resides of his revilers-they still
pursue him with ferocity which see nothing
in him to commend or admire, and which, for part-
zan purposes would destroy his fair fame as SOL
der and Southern But the people of the State
will sustain and vindicate him. While be is fight
ing at Richmond, they will talk for him and vote
for him at home. And the soldiers, too, will vote
for him. They know be is their friend and 'na1
he is no partizan, and they will stand by him. not
only in battle but at the ballot-box.
