THR CoNDucr OF THE WARRIOR one long year,
says the Richmond Dispatch, has war, IN its most
vind,ctive form, ragged upon Southern territory, and
yet to this hour not single blow has been struck
upon Northern soil, not Southern musket has been
Of hostile gun has been heard upon the Northern
air. Not one Northern family has been driven
from their homes, not one Northern homestead
given to the flames, not Northern acre desolated
All this We have borne-we who only ask for
peace we who only desire to be let alone; we, the
unoffendng people of the South, are made to bear
all this and to strike back at our cruel
invaders. We are playing the part Of the frogs in
the pond, pelted with rocks by cruel boys and only
to find safety in lodging the best we can the dam
gerous missiles. How long is this more than chirds
play to be endured? What good has it accom-
plished
Have our sufferings softened the hearts Of our
enemes! Has our forbearaDce inspired them with
sentiments of toleration? On the contrary, it has
increased their hate and ferocity ten-fold They
look upon it not as forbearance, bu! as pusanimity
If we had followed them up at Manassas, burned
Washington to the ground, and rallying around
our banner the glorious men of Maryland, had
poured our victorious legions into Pennsylvania
and Ohio the war would by this time be ended, OF
at any rate the enemys capacity for mischief des.
troyed. Peace is psace, and war is war, but Of
all the wars we have ever heard Of this, on our
side, least deserves the name. II not too late to
retrieve this fatal error we should make gigantic
effort to hurl back upon the enemy's country, in
irresistible avalanche all the calamites and eyik
of war, which for one long year he has visited d
his leisure upon ourselves. -

He Immediately opened communication
with Com. Rogers, of the Potomac foLila,
aud through him with Washington. The re-.
suit may be that the steam transports may re-
iieve bis soldiers of the fatigue OF marching on
Richmond, by landing them near the rebel Cap
ital, after the gunbosts have cleared away the
distractions. Our army is now extricated

By tire arrival of the Pilot from Washing

the rebel Colonel Singletary was killed in the
late fight at T'ranter'S creek. he fell early in
the action, with ball in his head. Singletary
was Acting Brigad ier General of all the rebel
forces in the vicinity of Washington, rarboro,
Pamlico and Tar rivers, and had the reputa-
tion of being daring and brave, but reckless
and unstrategetical officer. He was Lieuten-
ant of North Carolina volunteers in the Mex
lean war and was cashiered on one occasion
for creating a mutiny in his company or regi-
ment, but was subsequently restored, and
served throughout the campaign.

OUR ExERYo HAYTI IN SOUTH CARoLINA--
By the report which was made this mouth to
the Secretary Of the Treasury CT the contra
band colony in South Carolina it appears that
one hundred and eighty nine. plantations have
been put under cultivation, and that the entire
number Of blacks upon theui-men, women
and childreu-is $3.50, Of whom 4.42s are
field hands. The number OF acres Of cotton
planted is $3.50; the crop is cultivated with
the pfow aud the hoe, and in al respects
promises well. Besides the cotton, 6,3T5 acres
Of corn, potatoes, and other vegetables have
been plauted for the support Of the blacks and
tue benefit Of the soldiers. That viii do pret-
