GEN. IIINDMAN's ORDERS, &c.-We give
place to day to all the orders of Gen. Hind
man, which have not been heretofore pub
lished. They contain matter of interest to the
whole community, and win repay careful study
and peFusal With regard to the orders of
Genl. Hindman, and the subordinate officers
appertalning to his command, we have to dis
claim all intention, at present, of captious or
carfing critics. n. But we are anxious that this
shall not be quoted as an assent on our part
TO the unlimited authority o. militory COM
manders. ''-4rna cedant toga' has been ever
our motto, and in 50 far as Genl llindman's
ORDERS overslaugh, or disregard the acts Of
our Southern Congress, if such be the case,
We think 3hey are to that extent repre-
hensible. Whether it be wise to make
issues Of that sort, at present, is a diff
ferent question We think it is not Genl
Hindman with al his faults Gf he have any)
is undoubtedly patriotic. A slight mistake as
to the extent of % the head and 'front.' of his
authority is easily pardonable. We only re-
serve the point
break owners. The Genl. says he will take
all responsibilities. That is fair too Alrs
we'll that en- 5 we'll
In addition to General Orders, the Genl. has
issued some special ones of peculiar interest.
Amongst other things he has sent communi-
cation 10 Genl Curtis, in which he recitcs that
ne had learned that Geul. Curtis had take.
so4e OF the citizens residing in the Vicinity Of
BatesyiLie prisoners, and meant to hang them
for firing upon the Federal troops. He
informs Gen. Curtis that should he hang on
OF those prisoners, he would meet with retal;a-
ton, and that syery prisoner that might here
after fall INTO our hands should be hung with
out mercy. In the same letter We find his
response TO a supposed declaration of Geul.
Curtis. that this is to be a war of extermina-
ton. He accepts the issue thus rendered, and
agrees if desired to irnore all rules of civilized
warfare. Indeed we cannot see how he could
avoid it,
