Monroe, Sept. IL.

A rebel force of cavalry and three pie
ces of artillery under Col. Shingler, made
an attack on Williamsburg about s
o'clock Tuesday morning. After hav-
ing captured our pickets, they marched
into the town, taking our troops by sur
prise. An engagement ensued, which
lasted thirty minutes Our force consist
ed of the 9Th Penn. cavalry, Col. Camp
bell. who Was taken prisoner, together
with FIVE Captains, four Leutenants, and
few privates. The rebel Commander,
Col Shingler, with 8 of his officers and
8 men, were killed Loss Of rebels, was
more severe than ours, and We remained
in possession of the place. We took a

We wish we could remove one fallacy
from the Northern mind; and that is the
fallaey that labor performed by negroes on
the plantations of the South cannot be
done by white men. We say it can; and
we say it can be done cheaper ana better.
Intelligent and independent Southerners
will admit this. Why, the white farm
ers of the West, in their harvesting sea
son, work and are happy and healthy. IN
der sun quite as oppressive as that Of
this latitude. The hod carriers Of the
North, with no wool to shield their heads,
work as no negro could work, in sun
quite as broiling as anything experienced
in rice field or cane brake Wethrow
these assertions out for the examination
Of the philosopher and statesman. And
we will anticipate events SO far as to say
that sugar plantation will be worked il
this State by white men before the year
is out.
i Don't then, believe those who tell you
that white man can't DO what q negro
can. He can DO all that negro can do
in the way OF laboring 10 the sun, ant
ever SO much more.-[ n. o. Delta.

sword Presentation.

The members of Captain Maginnis'
Co., (mostly from Van Buren, county
Both Regiment, presented sword to 1t
ID. ID Leach Of that company, last Wed
nesday. The presentation speech was
made by Sergeant J. f. Roger, a'a wa
remarkably in good taste. A. iulluN2
LIEuTENANT--ln tho name Of the COM
pany to which we respectively belong, !
present you this sword, sash and belt
Though comparatively trifing in value
themselves, the motives through which
theJ are presented, and the confidence and
regard which they betoken for you. as
fellow citizen and brother soldier, will we
trust, render their presentation not alto
gether unacceptable. AS proof of that
confidence and regard, we know, indeed,
they viii be duly appreciated.
Though cur positions may be somewhat
different, We are all about TO engage in =
common cause--a cause which we all love
4
and for the success Of which we are ready
to peril all, even life itself. 1t is yours to
command--ours to obey; yours to lead
ours to follow. While this is the case, We
are also under mutual obligations to en-
courage, aid and protect each other. Most
especially should this obligation be recog-
nized in the hour Of trial and danger
And here, upon the threshold of our en-
trance on the service of he.eountry, do
we pledge ourselves that that obligation
on our part shall be faithfully discharged.
That it will be on yours, we do not for a
moment permit ourselves to doubt.
One gratifying circumstance connected
with the company of which we are mem
bers, is the well known character for TEN.
perance and sobriety of its officers. This
is virtue which shines as conspicuously
in the field as in the social circle, or al
the quiet Preside of home; and one
which it is to be hoped the men under
your command will not be slow to emu
late. For the want Of it many victor,
has been lost, and many a. battlefield
mantled in disgrace.
In conclusion, permit me to express tn
hope, that the future Of the little Lan'
now here assembled, may be as bright q
the glittcring blade which we now pre-
sent, and which you viii bear with yo
on the tented field. If danger and death
however, must come--let them come. =
Our cause is righteous one, and ever
way worthy of the sacrifice. Triumph
must--triumph il will; and proud ma
be the patriot soldier who is permitted |
share in the achievement.

ing to supply him with forage when his

He attributes the disaster of Saturday
jointly to the bad conduct Of Porter and
the failure Of Mcclellan to send him sup

have crushed Jackson before the forces Of
Lee could have reached him. Why he
did not do so / cannot understand. Our

Gus days, and very short of provisions,

forage for two days. ! had telegraphed

forage for my command would be loaded

as ,rouid send capaify escort to .Aier-
ate}ria to bring item up. All hope Of be-
ing able TO maintain my position. wheth-
! ct victorious or not, vanished with this

down, by long service in the face of the

not be spared from the front, even if there
had been time to go back thirty miles to

trains At the time this letter was writ

The Part General SigeI Took I'm tho
Recent Bnttles.-The 10 e suits of n o
Being Properly Supported.
W ashlngton, Sept. 5.

ashlngton, Sept. 5.
From an officer Of high rank in General
Sigel's army, who has just arrived here
wounded, gather the following facts,
which seem TO me important enough to
repeat.
The first fact is that General Sigel, on
Tuesday the cath of August, gave notice
to General Pope that the advance guard
of the enemy had passed through Thor
oughfare Gap. and that the main body Of
the army was at White Plains and Salem
his rear at Orleans This was the first
authentic information received by General
Pope, and by this information the army
was saved.
The second fact is that General Sigel
did all within his power to induce Gen.
Pope to change his front, in order to
throw his whole force from Warrenton,
Greenwich, and Warrenton Junction to
Gainesville, for the purpose of breaking
the enemy's lines, which moved in a half
circle, and 10 attack Jackson in the rear.
Pope adopted this manenyer, and Jackson
would have been lost II the different com
naudcrs had acted promptly apd in con-
junction.
The third fact is that Sigel engaged
the enemy, consisting of the corps of
Jackson, Ewell, and Hill, for eight. hours,
and that the battle ESQ says Sgel him
self would have been won if Mcdowell
had at noon attacked the enemy on the
left, and Porter on the right. But Nc
Dowell appeared at G.! o'clock P. NJ, in
-the front, and Porter did not take part in
the fight at all And even in the next
day these corps did not perform the re-
quested movements. Pope delayed his
attack till 3 clock in the afternoon, aud
this delay gave the enemy time to throw
his main force from his left wing to the
right. Of this movement General Pope
was informed by Sigel, who had antici.
pated an attack from that side, and who
had sent the 4th New York cavalry on a
reconnaissance.
These facts are important. am given
to understand that they can be substanti-
atcd if contradcted.
THE FEELING AGAINST Nj DowELL-sIGEI

were he to appear before our men agar
they would not hesitate to shoot him down
| believe the feeling is universal, but
still do not think Gen Mcdowell merit.
t. He is said to have been Pope's chiet
adviser on Saturday, as sSigel was on
Friday.
General Sigel is put down on all sides
as the hero of Fridays fight. His repu-
