EXACTLY RIGHT.-The Statesve Express admins
the following timely rebuke to those papers who
always finding fault with the Government and the
action of Government officers. We commend it to the
especial attention of the Raleigh Standard
1t is evident to every rejecting mind that the
which few papers published in the Confederacy,
pursuing is calculated nure seriously, if ruin,
the success of the Southern cause. By their inju
dicous they doing to aid Lincoln than
they aid the South We do not expect Presi-
dent Davis any other man, to be free from faults
and perfect in Judgment. We never believed that Sc
cession the proper remedy for Southern grievance
but inasmuch it has been resorted to, for
doing everything that will strengthen and not weaken,
the success of the revolution. But how is it with
those who continually endcarOring to create dis
trust in the minds of the people of the Government
which alone can afford them protection? Journals
published in New York and Boston can do nothing
worse, more injurious to the of the South.
President Davis may have recommended measures
which, upon examination might not appear free from
objections and his agents assume authority which he
never delegated to them But do these afford sufficient
reason to tear down and destroy the only fabric under
whose roof liberties and future welfare may hope
to find protection. Distrust the Government and what
becomes of its currency? millions of which have gone
and is daily going into the pockets of the people, who
have sold their property for it, to prosecute the
Destroy the Government, and where do we land? And
yet there are men engaged daily in doing all this who
make loud professions of loyalty to the South.
The success of the Southern cause depends upon
the friendship and support of the whole people to the
Government. This is the foundation upon which to
rest the fabric which Southern now engaged
in building for the protection of their PROPERTY their
lives, and their liberties. Let it be finished and tried
and then, if it does not the purpose, alter
abolish it. After that, it will be quite time enough
look out for other quarters. If Jeff Davis grows into
a Dictator, we can emigrate to Ab.ahams dominions
and at least choose between two evils.
Domestic enemies to be dreaded than
foreign foes. There are men who would ship-w
their country to punish single individual who had
done them an imaginary real injury, stepped be-
tween their ambition and the object of their DESIRES

THE WHEAT CRoP.-The wheat crop is un-
usually promising in this couHty at the present
time, and if no untoward disaster happens to in
lure it between this time and harvest, the yield
will be very large. The great fear is that suf-
6cient labor cannot be obtained, in consequence Of
the large number that have gone to the war, since
the wheat was planted, to harvest the crop. Some
farmers Offering in advance 81 day each for
hands at the proper time.-!StatesriUe Express.

GIVE clip the following from the St
Louis Republican, in regard to the condition
of the rebels. He says:
Some of the rebel troops have lately re-
ceived me-, clothes and shoes. and it is I'M
ders.ood sufficient supply is on the way
from Richmond for all the rest. The blan-
kets Ia.ey issued are all wool, of the best
dualitv-even better than those OF our SOL
diers. They are very similar in texture and
appearance to the article known as NJ acki-
nav blankets. The most of tho shoes are
coIse and scanty in upper leather, but strong
and well made with thick soles. These are
of Southern manufacture. few boots and
shoes are of the best quality--evidentiy OF
Yankee make; and it is said the Confeder-
ate authority have supply sufficient to give
one pair to each soldier, which were partly
made in Europe and partly III the Northern
States. They ran the blockade. of course,
including many cargoes recently Struggled
up the Rappahanock
The clothes of the privates are made OF
heavy gray cloth-of wool and cotton-tne
best quality of Jeans. Many of the coats
nave horn buttons. The clothing of the Of
ficers is of the best gray stuff-evid emily
imported. They are ornamented with heavy
Gilt tuttons-stamped A. S. G. A
Each soldier has two cotton shirts and one
fannel-very coarse and two pairs of
drawers; but as vet none of them have
been supplied with socks. The description
of clothing applies only to small portion
of the Confederate army IN Vlrginia-the
large majority. up to few days ago, not
having received the expected supplies of
this kind; but there can be no doubt the
Confederate Government has made provis-
ion for its soldiers. as far as possible, and
though these will be far from the best, they
are sufficient to enable them to hang togethr
until returning spring.

A MUSICAL DoG.-Dr. KaDes celebrated
Esquimaux dog. Myouk. was recently in
tho offioe Of the Chicago Tribune, ard favor
ed the editor thereof with his celebrated
solo. The Tribune SAYS that Myouk mount

rejected poems, paste bottles aud pens. His
master (Prof. Seager,) sounded G for him
Myout, with his nose at right angles to his
shaggy body, sounded the same note in per-
feet harmony. and then through the whole
OF one octave and tortion of another; the
second being quite deficient in the accident
ais, and at times running into faIsetto. Each
ascending note of the scale was rendered
with increased power and length, his nose
sweeping quadrant at The same time, so
that at the close of the octave his nose
pointed to the zenith. and his last note was
prolonged ear-pierciDg howl, and still nm
on the proper key. The descending scs1e
was accomplished with equal success. and
his nose returned to its origina. righ t-angulsr
position. At the applause which followed
Myouk modestly nodded his head aud
attempted to get into the waste paper basket.
Although there is little variety to Ny
ouk's music, yet We must give him the credit
of doing his work faithfully and correctly.
Myouk sings his solo, at each exhibition of

Lieutenant kinZie Baies' Account of
the Battle of Corinth.

The following extract is from a private
letter, written by Lieutenant Bates, formerly
of this city: Rushing down at run, the
rebels came on with gallantry worthy of
better cause. We opened a most terrific
fire; she'll, bullets and every missile fell like
hail. We completely enfladed their line,
but on they came; our troops fell back;
brigade of rebels, led by Texas Colonel,
rushes up TO Lieutenant Roffineit's redou5t
the support falls back, he double shots his
guns with canister, but on they come. and
the Texas Colonel places the rebel flag on
the redoubt. They crowd through the en-
brasures; orr men abandon their guns and
take to theirmuskets. The volunteers rally
we turn once again on the redoubt, and
the enemy are driven back. leaving som e
twenty persons inside of il. The Texas
Colonel, his Adjutant and seventy dead lay
in the ditch in front of the battery. This
is fact, for last night buried them with a
party of our own men. / gavo the gallant
Colonel decent burial on the epot where
ne lost his life, but buried his men in one
trench.
In the mean time where was I. I suppose
you want to know. Commanding two guns
that commanded their line leading into
town. / kept hard at work. At times the
ty-pound shell would make gaps 300
feet long in their ranks, but. ia spite Of the
Tremendous resistance, the fire of our bat =
teries and twenty field pieces. they reached
the town, and some were killed in the yard
OF General Rosecrans' headquarters. We
work with desperate energy. Our guns are
so hot you can hardly touch them. The
battery resounds with the voices of the off .
GERS encouraging the men. l yelled till
was hoarse. The rebels can not stand the
fire. and retreat to the woods leaving their
dead and wounded on the field, ard l COO
prisoners. l can not say how many were
killed. 1 went over the field yesterday, and
1 saw 1000 dead rebels, killed mostly by
artillery. We lost five men killed and one
officer, Oieutenant Roffinet,) and nine men
wounded. Our loss altoget Their must be 1 500
