upon American affairs upon the strength OF a
visit he paid to South Carolina in 1882. His
theory was that the tariff alone had led to
secession, and he announced in the last OF his
letters that the south had always been friendly
to England, and, in proof of this assertion,
mentioned that the Hartford convention was
held in 1872, by the South Carolinians, to
consider the propriety of seeding, in order to
get rid of the war, which was forced upon
them by the New England manufacturers
The week after there appeared an editorial
article, evidently from his pen, protesting TO
give the history of protection in America 1t
declares at the outset that the first protective
tariff was 'invented" by ''the great northern
statesman, Henry Clay !'
WHAT is NEEDED.
I might say great deal more in ilustra-
ton of my meaning, but l have burdened
your space sufficiently. If we desire to have
the sympathy of Europe we must take pains
and work hard to get it. 1t has ust now a
substantial value, and every mail shows how
thoroughly alive you are to the facts. Why,
then, in heavens name. is there not more done
to mould or correct public opinion Some
one in place and power ought surely at least
to see that either the consulate or legation in
Paris and London is supplied with all the re.
ports and other documents necessary to throw
light on the past and present relations of north
and south, and upon the course and chances
of the war, and upon the motives of the men
who are leading the rebellion This is the
very least that can be done. Whether some
effort should not be made TO "inspire," as the
French writer's say the writers and politicians
is also certainly worthy consideration
hope the folly of the ostentatous indiffer.
erence to what people think of America in
France in England, assumed in times past by
American politicians, is by this time fully ex-
posed. 1t is no doubt grand thing to be so
independent of the rest of the world that its
opinion of one is of no importance. But no
man and no nation has ever been in this posi-
ton yet AS far as regards nations, steam
and the telegraph and commerce have render
ed it still more unattainabe in the future than
in the past. The day is sure to come when
the proudest and migltiest and richest will
find itself in the deepest need of the love or
respect of its neghbors.
Isolation, either moral or materal,-is
henceforth impossible and it is as much a
part of statesmans duty to cultivate the
good will of foreign nations as to be prepared
for their hostility. England has for two cen
turtles devoted herself to securing that sort of
reverence which is always accorded to any
body vino is able to knock any one down lie
doesn't like, and is ready to do it on small
provocaion. But this is certainly not the po-
sition to which the United States aspire.

The Rebel Losses.

The losses of the rebels in recent ac-
tions, and retrograde movements, have
been very great in precisely those things
they could least afford to spare. Their
rear-guard left Manassas in panic, and
sacrificed large quantity of valuables.
One train of eighty -four cars laden with
military stores, has been taken. A con-
siderable number of very fine guns, and
well stored magazines of ammunition
have been found in the abandoned block
ade batteries ON the lower Potomac. A
heavy loss in artillery, small arms and
ammunition was suffered at Roanoke
Island. The rebels ran away from
splendid guns and considerable stores at
: Fernandina. At Forts Henry, Donel-
SON, Clarksville, and Nashville, their
losses of arms and war material ara
Government property of all kinds was
immense. A good many guns, and
great assortment Of torpedoes and infer
nal machinis, were left at Columbus, and
extensive army supplies were destroyed
there. AT the battle of Pea Ridge, the
enemy lost tn irteen cannon, and unnum-
bered small arms. At New Madrid, an
army estimated six thousand strong, fled
from their artillery, arms aad baggage
losing, everything that made them SOL
diers,I The success would have been
very little, if any greater for our arms
if the whole force had been taken pris-
oners of war. There is no reason to
doubt that whatever material the rebels
accumulated at Island No 10, is in our
hands, or will be taken at once. This
is a prOsss that will soon leave them

FAIRFAX C. H., March IA.
Soldiers Of the Army Of the Potomac:
For long time have kept you mac
tive, bnt not without purpose You
we're to be disciplined, armed, and in
structed. The formidable artillery you
now have, had to be created. Other
armies were to move to accomplish GER
tain results. l have held you back that
you might give the death-blew to the
| rebellion which has distracted this once
happy country. The patience you have
shown, and your confidence in your Cen
eral, are worth a dozen victories. These
preliminary results are now accom-
plished. | feel that the patient labors
of many months have produced their
fruits
The Army Of the Potomac is now a
real army, magnificent in material, ad
mirable in discipline and instruction, and
excellently equipped and armed. Your
commanders are all that could wish.
The moment for action has arrived, and
I know that can trust i'll you to save
the country. As I ride through your
ranks, I see in your faces the sure pres
tige of victory. I feel that you will do
whatever l ask of you. The period of
inaction has passed. l will bring you
now face to face with the rebels, and
only pray that God may defend the
right. In whatever direction l may
move, however strange my actions may
appear to you, ever bear in mind that
my fate is linked with yonrs,, and that
all l do is to bring you where 1 know
you wish to be-on the decisive battle
field. 1t is my business to place you
there, am to watch over you as par
eat ever his children, and you know that
your General loves you from the depths
of his heart. 1t shall be my care, as it.
has ever been, to gain success with the
least possible loss, but know that if i. !
is necessary you will willingly follow me
to our graves for our righteous cause.
God smiles upon US; victory attends US;
yet would not have you think that our
aim is to be attained without a manly II
I will not disguise it from
you that you have brave foes to encoun
ter-foemen well worthy of the steel
which you will use so we'll. Ishall de.
mand from you great and heroic exer-
tions; rapid and long marches; desper-
ate combats; privations. We will share
all these together; and when this sad
war is over, will all return to our homes
and feel that we can ask no higher honor
than the proud consciousness that we
belonged to the Army of the Potomac.

narThe Court Of Common Plea

parThe Court of Common Pleas
commenced its Spring Session on Mon
day, with the Hon. John Welsh upon
the Bench, which position he fills to the
entire satisfaction of the Bar, as well as
suitors. In fact, our new judge has
more than filled the expectations of his
friends, and if he presides throughout
his term, with the same easy dignity
and impartiality that he has manifested
so far, he will leave it with popular
ity seldom won by judicial officer. So.
much we feel free to say at present, re-.
serving the right to "modify" our in
dorsement, should it require such mod
i6cation after further practice and OBJ
servation In his Court.
No important cases have been tried
up to this time, Wednesday night, } and

Letart Roll of Honor.

Nr. Eaitor:-I believe every town
ship in the county except Letart has
published in the. Telegraph its respective
list of volunteers, and 1 am happy to
observe that they average considerably
over hundred.
1t speaks we'll for Meigs. It shows
that her citizens-not mud sills-but
moral Intelligent citizens, are determined
to straugle treason, even if the British
lion should stand by and growl.
But while other townships have been
sending in their hundreds, do not imag-
inc that Letart has been idle, merely be-
cause she points down in the bend of
the river so far toward seceshdom, for a
list of her volunteers will vouch for her
loyalty. 1t is true our list is not as
large as others in the county. But, be
it remembered, that Letart is not town
ship, but only fraction (about half },
her voting population being little
short of two hundred. But, notwith-
standing her small body, she has large
and patriotic spirit.
Below we give list of the names
from this fraction, who have volunteered
to offer themselves sacrifice on the al
tar of our national honor:
There may be few errors as to the
regiment We have assigned each one,
but none as to the number of names.

1000 troops at Union, 1000 at Hum

Island No. 10. At the latter place are
also said tie be twelve heavy guns, in
three batteries.

| CAMP MILES SourH OF NASHVILLE, Tenn, !
February 2Sth, 1862. !
Dear Futher:-I suppose, before this
reaches you, you will have heard of our
advance from Bowling Green to Nash
vile. Three Reg'ts of our Brigade left
on Sunday, the 23d inst. The other
Reg't, the 18th III. had been sent across
the river on account of their pillaging SO
much in the town, by Gen. Mitchell, and
they had to be ferried across, having to
go down the river about seven miles to
get to the ferry, which took them the
greater part of the day, and they did not
start until the next day, and have not
got here yet. On Saturday, ohm Ben
edict and /, and two or three others, were
detailed to go and ferry our teams across
the river. We had been trying to estab-
lish ferry across the river all the week,
but as fast as we could get road made
to the river, and the line stretched
across, the river would rise and pre-
vent US from using it. The last one
was made when the river was about on
the stand, and where the banks in low
water were very high, but the water was
SO high that we could run the wagons
in and out on the banks with ease. We
cot all of the 18th's teams across by dark
but two, which were stuck fast in the
mud, one of them four miles beck on the
road, so we had to- leave them till the
next day. On account of our superior
workmanship, John Benedict, Bartlett
Hysell and were again detailed with
several others, to get the remaining two
teams over. I forgot to tell you that
on Saturday, while Edgartons Battery
of Artillery were crossing, one of the
men started across the river in little
skif between the two ferries 1--WE had
two lines across the river) and the cur
rent carried him down against the lower
line and upset the skiff, when he was
just about the middle of the river in the
strongest current. He caught on the
upper side of the rope just as the skiff
turned, with the rope right across his
stomach. Four or five of us were bring
ing skiff load of plank from the upper
ferry just as he was upset. We threw
out the plank as quick as we could, and
they all got out but Bart. Hysell and I,
and we went out to him in the skiff and
took him in. / was in the bow of the
skiff, and pulled it ont by the rope. AS
soon as commenced pulling ON the rope,
he commenced following "let go the
rope" 'let 60 the rope" being afraid
would raise it out of the water, and he
would loose his hold. The crowd on
the bank took up the cry, and such
following of "let go the rope" you never
heard. Major Grosvenor was on the
bank and he could be heard above all
the rest. He swore he would shoot me
If did not let 60 the rope, but 1 knew
that L could not get to the man if let
GO, as the current was so swift, and VIC
