THE 2lsr n. C. REGIMENT.

Nix EDITOR While other .ments have their
gallant deeds held up to the admirng gaze of their
gratiied countrymen | am sorry that the 2 LIST reg
i!nent N. G. troops, Col. Kirkland commanding
has had chronicer OF its SueringS, its endurance
and its heroism. The regiment does not envy the
fame of others, but rather reOceS in it, and strives
the harder to emulate the galantry Of its brethren
in arms.
The 2lst was organized soon after the commence
ment of hostities and was Immediately transferred
to Manassas where it participated in the action of
the 18th and the great battle of the 2lSt of July
After being declmatcd by terrible camp diseases and
enduring unusual suffering it slowly recovered and
did excellent service in the retreat from Manassas
to the RappahanOck, being in the post of honor the
rear guard. In March, with Gen. Ewels division,
it ordered To The Valley Of Virginia, where it
rendered important aid to Gen. Stonewall jackson
IN securing the mountain passes for tories and scat
tering Yankees. While in detached service at Fish
er'S Gap, where it did severe picket duty for some
time it received orders to join Gen. jackson in his
attack upon Front Royal, whence the enemy
driven in confusion upon Winchester. In the glo-
rious attack On Winchester the 2lst led the van
After marching all night pressing the enemy before
them, they reached Winchester about sunrise, and
immediately attacked the enemy strongly posted by
stonewalls After engaging them for some time
with musketry, Col X. determined to dslOdge the
enemy by the bayonet His men responded with
enthusiasm, and with great spirit stormed one after
another III the midst O leaden hail, driving the en-
envy before them till they found themselves sur
rounded on three sides 10y four thousand Yankees.
Though contendng against this great odds alone,
they were undauntrd, and posting themselves be-
hind wall they maintained their position till REIN
forcenents arrived, when the enemy fled like sheep.
1t was in thus desperate encounter that Col. Kirk
land fell severely wounded, while CALAMITY leading
his men into the hottest of the fight. But wounded
as he was, he remained undaunted, and being sup
ported between two men, kept with the regiment
cheering on to the charge. 1t COL Pepper con-
dncted himself with unsurpassed bravery, and fell
mortally wounded amid the victorious shouts of his
uen Captains Hedgecock and Lgon fell at the
head of their respective companies and died brave
men wish to die, on the victorious battle field
Lieut. Jones and Lieut. j. F. Beall, conducted them
selves calamity, being foremost when the fire was
hottest and the bullets thickest both were wound
ed. Lieut. Beall fell with nine balls through his
clothes But the whole regiment, from the privates
to the Colonel, acted most nobly, and it would al
most seem invduous to partcularize. They have
borne aoft the honor of the old North State in four
pitched battles. Long will their gallant deeds live
in the hearts of their gratiaed countrymen.

COL. VANCE AND THE ARMY.
GoLDSBoRo', n. G.

nOLDSBOhD, ~. u, ouIlc ~, iOoS.
To the Eiitor Of the Standard:
1t gives me great pleasure to inform you of the
satisfaction with which the nomination Of Col.
Vance has been received by the Army. | have re-
Gently enjoyed the most ample opportunities for as
Certanng the sentiments OF the soldiers in this re-
gard, and can assure you that a large majority,
without regard old party lines, heart and soul
for the Peoples candidate, the pure patriot the
gallant solder-COl' Vance. His name is indeed
tower of strength among those who have sacrificed
every thing upon the altar of patriotism, and whO
in utter contempt for the tricks of the politician,
and the schemes of the demagogue, are resolved to
stand up for the best interests of their country, as
well at the ballot box as upon the held OF battle.
In him they recognize a statesman whose talents
have already Impressed themselves upon the hiSto
ry of the country; soldier, who, at the first tap
of the invaders drum, sprang forward to the de
fence of his native Stale, without asking for rank
or caring for prelerment while many of those who
now oppose his election remained at home either
aghast at the storm they themselves had raised,
awaiting some opportunity when 1t might be used
to their own advantage; gentleman, against whose
private character the tongue OF malice itself can
frame accusation man, in fact, prcemlnently
worthy the Chief MagiStracy Of North Carolina, and
peculiarly qualified fill the Gubernatorial chair
with dignity and success at this critical period of
our history. For these reasons, it is my honest
opinion, that Col Vance will receive an overwhelm
ing Army vote"-such a vote as will insure his
election whoever may be his competitor, or what
ever the amount of party rituperatlon by which he
is asSailed.
The attempt to inure him because Of his ICON
servatiSm" is thoroughly understood as it is de
spised by those who have shared with HIN the dan
gers of the battle field ard the hardshIps of the
camp. They willing to trust the "cOnserva
tsm" of a man, who, though having no instrument
tality in bringing the war, was among the first
to draw his sword against the invaders and will be
the last to sheath it while an enemy remains upon
Southern soil-onc who, though second to none in
his devotion TO the Union as established by our
Fathers until the Constitution which gave 1t HE
and beauty was destroyed by designing men, is now
pledged heart eId hand, to the policy of the most
vigorous war that be waged by the Southern
people against the common enemy. The soldiers
understand Col. Vance and are not only willing but
anxious to trust him in the exalted position to
which he will be elevated in August.

Mr. EDITOR There has been considerable said in
regard to the skirmshing near Hanover Court
House, in which Cur gallant 18th showed their
bravery, yet there was one act of noble daring
which has not been stated by the papers. Capt:
John w. Meares, of Columbus county, N. O., who
was elected Capt. of Co c, from private, and who
failed to receive his commission in consequence OF
the misrepresentation of certain officer, was dis
charged from the Confederate service, and on the
morning previous to the tight had left the company,
and was on his way home nearly three miles from
camp, when courier overlook him who was carry
ing dispatch, and informed him that the enemy
was advancing, and that the 18th Regiment would
be engaged in repulsng them. No sooner had our
gallant Capt Msares received this information than
his spirit was aroused. and, turning back at the
double quick, he thought to regain the 18th Regt
of which he was previously member, but being
cut off by company of Yankee scouts who had
managed to.get around the Regt, and who rushed
out from their place of conceaeht and poured forth
a volley of minnie balls upon him before he saw
