CHASED BY LADIEs.-The following
paragraph, which we clip from the army
letter of the Mobile Tribune, may contain
some truth; but as We have before heard
nothing of the affair, we cannot youch for
its accuracy:
We were driving sedgwick's infdels a.
cross Banks ford, when Yankee officer
was seen making his way through the streets
of Fredericksburg, where we had no troops
at the time, in order to gain the opposite
side of the river. A number Of ladies
standing on the porch at the time saw the
runaway, and cried out ssstop him, stop
him." when a Miss Phillippa Barbour, a
niece Of Col. Phil. Barbour, of Va, with
number Of other ladies, gave chase, and
ran the Yankee officer nearly down, who,
couvulsed With laughter at the sport, and
the idea. of being pursued by ladies, be-
came nearly exhausted, and gave up on be.
ing hemmed in at the corner Of garden
fence The ladies took him prisoner, and
locked him up in a room until our troops
again entered the city.

The Enemy's Raid on the Banks Of the
= Combahee. Z : a I. I. q,
Our Resources.

:, sSS13l6cb84O0syt
We have gathered some additional par
ticulars of the recent destructive Yankee
raid along the banks of the Combahee.--
The latest official dispatch from General
Walker, dated Green Pond, eleven o'clock
Tuesday night, and which wasreceived here
on Wednesday morning, conveyed intelli..
gence that the enemy had entirely disaps
peared, IL "a, &,:sS, - J,
It seems that the first landing of.the Van,
dals, whose force consisted mainly of three
scontrabapd" companies, ,oaicered BY yHhite
men, took place at Fields Point, on the
plantation of DR.. R. L. Baker,, at the
mouth Of the Combahee river. After dss!
;troying the residence and ontbuildings, the
iucendiaries proceeded along the1iyerb bank,
visiting successively the plantations of Mr..
Oliver Middleton, Mr.. Andrew w. Burnet,
Mr.. VIM. Kirkland, Mr.. Joshua Nichols,
Mr.. James Paul, Mr.. Manigault, Mr. C
Z. Lowndes, and Nj. VIM. g. Hayward
After pillaging the premises of these gen.
lAemen, the enemy set fire to the residences,
aoutbuildings and whatever grain, etc, they
could find. The last place at which they
stopped was.the plantation Of VIM. @. Hey
ward, and, after their work Of devastation
there had been consummated, they destroy
ed the pontoon bridge at Combahee Ferry.
They then drew of, taking With them be-.
tween 600 and roo negroes, belonging.
chiefly, as we are informed, to Mr., VIM. @.
Hayward and Mr.. G.. T. Logndes. !, -.
The residences on these plantations are
located at distances from the river, varying
in different cases from one to two miles
On the plantation Of Mr.. Nichols between.
5000 and 10, 900 bushels Of rice were des-
,troyed. Besides bis residence and ontbuild-
ings, which were burned, he lost . choice
library Of rare books, valued at SIC, ,000.a
Several oyerseers aremissipg, and il is sup
posed that they are in the hands Of the en-
emy. a d -, -.s:s -
The success of marauding expedition
of this character is certainly a very morti-,
flying circumstance. We areinformed that
Tar Bluff, down the river, below the plan.
.tation.o of Mr. Bnrnet, commands the Com
bahee, and that few well served guns at
that pointWould prevent gunboats from 60
ing up the river. And in like manner it
has been suggested thata few guns, skilfl-
ly managed, if placed at ghspman's Fort,
on the Ashepeo River, would prevent any
ascent of that stream. It isa matter Of re- ]
gret that the troops recently stationed be.
tween the Combahee and the Ashepoo are
ignorant of the localities and roads in an

Our GLORIOUS SoLDIERs.-An intelli-
geut'geutlemau, who was an eyewitness of
the late battle near Fredericksburg, says
that highly as the efficiency of Gen. Lees
army had been extclled, nothing he, had
heard came up to the impression produced
on his mind by his own observation Of their
conduct. Their deedszof valor were not
only magnificent beyond all conception, but
the cheerfulnesss with which, after being
for a great part of the day involved in the
most terrific peril, they would, as soon as
successful, march for miles to some. new
scene Of dangef, was absolutely marvellous.

groups Of the wounded standing around a
we'll, each waiting patiently his turn for
water, bleeding, dusty, weak in body, yet
as humble, modest, and unpretending as SO
many children. Wonderful men J! What
