A vindication of Gen. Leadbetter

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, May 5, 1862.
10 the Editors Of tie CoJedracy:
I have seen with pain scurrious edi-
torial in the Commonwealth" OF the I'd
inst, abusing Gen. Leadbetter for his de-
pertinent in general, and his late conduct
in particular. | deem it my duty to say
that every allegation in that article is
utterly false and without shadow Of truth.
and request you 20 to say upon my au-
thority.
So tar from Gen. LIS being '.bragga.
docio, he Is a very modest and etiring
gentleman; and so far from being drum
KEN ne is. relnarl=Ahly cha, er1siv1sy,s ret
dom tasting wine or spirits. As to his
loyalty, although born in Maine. he is
identified by marriage, by interest and
by sentiment with the South. No gen
tleman is more esteemed is his chosen
city of Mobile. where he has long resided.
While discharging the delicate and oner-
Gus duties of Chief of the Engineer De-
partment at Richmond, when the bridges
on the railroads were burned in Novem-
Der last, and all East Tennessee was
threatened with invasion, he was selected
as the safest man available to guard our
great interests there, and Well lie did it..
Having captured some OF the bridge
burners and had them convicted by court
martial, he hung them up as warning
Tor others, and thus forever precluded
himself from hope of favors from their
friends.
The truth is, that Gen. L. was left
without adequate force to repel the un
expected attack on Bridgeport. and that
he did all any good. officer could do with
the means at his command. 1t is shame
ful 10 attempt thus to ruin every leader
who may meet with temporary repulse.

Mnior and Acting Engineer.

Yankees and the Southern Church.

Yankees and the Southern Cnurch.
The secular papers now and then give
Us u picture of the evils that would result
to our Southern land, in the event of the
triumph of the Federal arms. II is
shocking enoueh--a loss OF everything
earthly. that am enlightened and cultt
waited people can bold dear. But there is
one aspect Of the subject THAI has not
been presented. What are the Southern
Churches To expect when the invader has
completed our suhjugation-ii, unhappiiy
that day should ever come? And what
will be the late of those ministers, who
dare to REM in firm to their principles
and resist the yranny of tie conqueror!
| We have already published accounts OF
! clergy men on Southern soil. seized while
! leading Ibeir congregations in worship
because they would not pray for the Pr, s
idcnt of The United States-we have seen
how one was publicly beaten. under the
eye OF Federal officer, because he would
not receive into his house soldier who
sought to inuude himself there. We
have heard OF others abused. inpris-
oned and impoverished. by a wicked and
rapacious enemy From all we can gath
RI we infer that the pulpit and the press
will he subjected to the vilest despotirm,
and free thought and Tree speech wholly
interdicted in case they get possession OF
our country.
All the labor of years in building up
Churches free from. fanatcism will be lost.
Northern missionaries will swarm over
| the land, and the long arm OF Northern
ecclesiastical power will be stretched out
over our people, sustained in its agrees
sion. by The longer arm of secular ty-
ranny. We must all pray, at the point
of the bayonet, as our enemies dictate, or
only pray IN .--Southern Christian

From Corinth.

CoRINTn, May s, A. Mall remains
quiet at this point to day. We had hea-
w rains last night, and again this morn
ing, though it is now clearing up. The
condition of the ground is such that
there will probably be no battle to day
rbe enemy is moving large forces on
Our right. They tore up the track OF the
Memphis and Charleston Railroad ye@7
terday lat poii,v ton miles east OF tor-
inth. The object of the movement, is
probably, to try and reach the Mobile
road South of us, and cut Oft men and
supplies in that quarter. Beauregard is
on the alert, and has sent an adequate
force to defeat their plans.
Col. Scott of the Louisiana Cavalry,
burnt the railroad bridge over Limestone
between Decatur and Huntsville, Thurs
dav last. He also captured two Yankee
provision trains, burnt twenty cars, and
killed and wounded hiity-four Federals.
He also engaged the enemy's cavalry on
Friday, at Elk river, and repulsed them,
though half his men had crossed the riv-
err and were not in the fight. He killed
thirty-five of the Federals. The Conied-
crate loss on the expedition was IA kill
ed, 5 wounded, and IL horses. P. w. A.

CoRINTH, May S, P. MI have no
change in the status of affair here to re-
port as the day advances. The weather
is clear, but the roads are in shocking
condition. A battle cannot be deferred,
however.

was captured by our scouts on Saturday.

In this State, will be to elect men to re-
present US in Congress who will follow
the lead of Nallandighalu 4 Go. in their
opposition to the present Administration.
