~AS EDIToR RLooRED.-A very inter-
estiug ''set too'' occurred up at the Vince.
ling Pres Office on Friday afternoon which
belongs to the current news of the day
1t appears that our, friend Joseph Arm
strong, the paper manufacturer, called upon
Mr. Henry Hardy, the new editor and pro
prietor of the Pres for the purpose of talk
log to him upon business relating to the
paper which the former gentleman has been
furnishing to the concern. During the
conversation some dispute arose. Mr.,
Hardy offered to secure Mr.. Armstrong tor
the paper which he might furnish tor Que
month by the order Of responsible gen-
tleman, but Mr.. Armstrong wanteI the ar
rearages settled or secured also As
Hardy didu't know exactly how "a
do this, the concern not having AT
its command sutEieisnt amount Of
money to answer its immediate practical
purposes,) Mr. Armstrong was aboat+
TO take his leave, when Hardy took occa-
sion to remark that Armstrong was leagued,
with set of Abolitionists about town
whose object it was to break the Press
down. Armstrong said that was not true.
Some more conversation ensued during
which Hardy became somewhat violent and
made various beligerent demonstrations.-
At this stage of the proceedings Armstrong
cOllared Hardy, and backed him up against
the wall. Hardy made as if to pick up a
stool when Armstrong knocked him down.
Mr.. Armstrong considered the remark Of
Hardy about his attempting to break down
the Pres as impertinent and insulting as it
was grOupdless and he felt justified in what
he did, Complaint was made before Al
dermau Dulty. and Armstrong was fined by
that magistrate $40 and costs.

Too Much Cavalry.

A correspondent OF the Chattanooga
Rebel, has some sensible remarks about
the superabundance Of Cavalry and Horse
Marines in the Confederate service. We
quote one paragraph:
Mr.. Editor, we have too much cavalry
too much cavalry in our army, which can
not ride, cannot fire a good shot at a
Yankee 200 yards off on horseback, can
not swing a sabre without cutting his
own neighbour, or his horses ears or tail
OF; too much of that sort of cavalry
which Joins cavalry for the purpose of es-
Gaping the serious portion of this fighting
business, who go in to be as comfortable
as possible, and never to get into fight,
but always to keep on pressing horses, and
getting good meal at farmers house.
Beyond question the writer is right
there is too much cavalry in the service
and in some instances they have proved
a curse and disgrace instead of an adj
vantage to the service

The Spirit of Speculation.

The speculation and extortion now SO
shamelessly rife bode more evil to the
Southern cause than all the armies of the
enemy. We will not ask how the poor
are to live if the present prices of articles
essential to life continue; for that, unless
the Government and community step in
to their support, as is done in England
will be an impossibility. But how those
in moderate circumstances, and who in
ordinary times, are comparatively COM
fortable-a class which comprises the ma
iority of the Southern people-how they
will manage to keep soul and body to-
gether if articles of vital necessity contin-
ues as high through the winter, as they
are now, is more than we can imagine
We should like to see some measure
adopted by the Government, no matter
how arbitrary, which would save the
country from the most formidable of all
the perils by which it is surrounded.

From Virginia.

Richmond, Dec. 6.-Ou Thursday after
noon. the gunboats of the enemy made
demonstration in the vicinity Of Port
Royal, which brought on brisk artillery
duel between them and battery of our
artillery. The firing lasted more than an
hour, during which, nine boats were suffi-
GENTLY battered for them to deem it pru-
dent to withdraw. During the firing,
two houses in Port Royal were struck by
the enemy and considerably damaged.
Additional particulars show the West
moreland affair to have been decided
success for the Confederates.
Col. Beal. of the Goth Virginia cavalry,
sent detachment of IL men, under
Maj. Walter, across the Rappahannock
river TO Cadstown, in Westmoreland coun-
ty, when they surprised and captured the
Federal pickets on post at that point
They then proceeded to farm where
the picket camp of the enemy existed;
which they surprised, capturing As men,
including a captain and , heutenants of
the 9th Pennsylvania cavalry, with sabres,
carbines, and pistols. They captured 81
cavalry horses and equipments and as
much sugar and coffee as the men could
firing off conveniently.
The point at which this occurred is

The Situation.

We have stirring news from the vicinity
Of our army at and around Murfreesboro'.
Since orr last issue, there has been a gen
eral movement of the troops towards
Nashville. Hardee,s corps, from Shelby
vile, advanced on Saturday to Triune, a
small village about 20 miles from Nash
vile with an excellent turnpike road
leading into the city. simultaneously
with this movement, Gen. Kirby Smiths
corps, heretofore stationed at Manches-
ter, advanced to Reedyville, a short dis
lance from Murfreesboro' and is destined,
SO we are informed, for Lebanon. The
whole army was in motion and at last ac-
counts skirmishlng had commenced be-
tween Nashville and Murfreesboro,- 1t
is the opinion of some here, that Nash
vile is to be invested on all sides. Onr
line of battle now extends from Frank
lin, in Williamson county, Is miles Sontb
OF. Nashville, to Lebanon, the county
seat Of Wilson, about 80 miles Northeast
of that city. Morgan, we understand is
to operate on the Louisville and Nash

denounce-friend or foe-the imbecility
of the Administration, the vacillations Of
its policy, the selfish intrigues of its high

is dominant around the green baze Of the

A Brilliant Affair.

The city was alive with rumors yester-

army in front OF Nashville, but they were

even justify an opinion as to what has

the following information of a brilliant

troops with Yankee force at Huntsville.
