fRyUAY MORNING. .......JUNEe 1857.


The Whsresh.u.s Ct Gen. Jatkson.
Our contemporaries. both Of the Yankee
press and our own, seem to be much exercised
on this eubiect. Oae thinks jackson IL a.
Winchester, another tina. he is at Mar,snshurg,
q third that he is in Maryland, advancing upon
Hrsdsrick,own, tearing up bridges as he goes
ana spresding terror among the Yankees gen
erAlly. A gentleman who returned from tho
Valley few days ago, reports him at stras-
burg about the beginning Of the pre~ens week
hut who can tell where be maybe now? his
movene1t are 90 rapid, that ii is almost i'm
possible TO kesr ep with him. But of on-
thing We saay feel assured, and that - tnss no
IL in The very paace where he ovshs 70 be, let
that place lie what 1t naS. The Lynchbnrg
Rxpubx%con save tha, ST last accounts the enc
nv eeened 60 he gathering around him Fro
mont FROM one ,,Tarier, Shields from another,
aad rcms other Yankee ticer trom third
a Yankee corteep,rdep, If the New York
yYo, ID PREDICTS that he vi DO speedily t,eoted
from the Valley, or captcred by tie powerful
combination that has been fctpa.s against him.
We have no fears of any such catastrophe.
Before these several enemies can eject any.
thing Of cones nenos, they must ts units. 4
At prescnt they are widely separste,i as,. b.,
;s in 3 central position, ii be te st Str.eburg,
which eeems to be the bstse- opinion. Whether
he will allow them 20 nni;c or not. remains
20 he seen Judging from the eiy!e Of his
tactics heretofore, We should Judge they would
and i, a very difficult matter He is nc. the
easn, we take il, 10 miss an opportunity of at.
lacking his foes in detail, when 1t presents
itself. His activity Ia proverb,ai, aud keenlng
HE forces together. or 60 nearly together that
they can be united in few hours, i, ie ,,art OF
his system 10 fell fret upon ome def-ctssaen.,
then on another. He aaheses t., the old Ma
poleoQic method OF csrry.us on war, and ap-
psrently sees No advantage in allowing an
sneuys whole strergth to be united beftEe
attacking hiu. He has none of that ch;~sirs
which has distinguished other Geneesis in this
~sr, ADD which does no; allow An enemy to
10 sseaied, until r. rdall havs brought up
every man ans every gun and fortified bis
camp e ~ 20 render it almost impregusble.
Fer these reasons We have no fe irs for
old otonewall, nor can all the bravado of the
Yankees, aud the threats in which they in
duIge so profnsely, induce US to believe that
he has run, or is about to run, into any danger
from which he will not be able to ex,ricate
hins self with glory to his army and advantage
10 his couutsy We know of No man who
may be left 60 entirely to his own devices
without apprehension CT the part of his
friends If the enemy come with inferior
forces, he will capture the whcis of them.
Il they come with numbers anything like
equal, he will beat them. If they be greatly
superior IN strength, he will get away from
chem. Under no circumstances will he sit
down and throw up dirt, allowing them to
surround him at leisure, aud shell him out of
his camp when he shall have been completely
envelopsd. The enemy understand him even
better than his friends, and they will be eau
tious with him where they would te bold With
another.
