The. Fight ut Murfreesboros.

In our last We gave brief dispatch from Gen.
sailed the enemy and driven him from every posi-.
ton except his extreme left
On the LIST inst, he telegraphs that the enemy
had fallen back from his entire position. On the
Cd he telegraphs that the enemy had retreated but
short distance to the rear of his former position.
That he drew his left flank from position, but our
attacking party again retired with considerable loss
on both sides. The fighting during the slst Dec.
and I'd instant appears to have been most desperate
and bloody.
Our cavalry on the 1st under Gen. Wheeler and
COL Wharton was in the rear of the enemy, and
had captured and destroyed 800 loaded wagons and
paroled 700 prisoners, and taken several thousand
stand of arms. On the I'd, they captured 200 pris-
oners, one piece of artillery, and destroyed 200
wagons
The position of Rosencranz is exceedingly criti-
cal yet he holds on with logged purpose. If re.
Inducements 20 in to Gen. Bragg Rosencranz must
either capituate or retreat into Kentucky, which
must result IN the surrender of Nashville and the
destruction of his army.
So far Gen. Bragg has had decided success, and
we trust that the next dispatches will announce the
utter route of Rosencranz.
Our loss is very severe. Gen. Raines and Col.
Fry, of Miss. are among the killed-Gen. Chalmers
and Col Fish, of Louisiana, are among the wounded
Gen. Sill and three other Yankee Generals are re-
ported killed.
Gems. Morgan and Forest have destroyed large
amonnnt of Federal property, captured large mum
Der of prisoners and destroyed the Railroads. The
enemy in Tennessee and Mississippi are said to bt
without Railroad or telegraphic communication.

more OF the Bitterness of Party.
The Register quotes from letters written by off,
GERS in the army in which the Legislature of this
State is grossly and unjustly assaied. These let
ter-writers affect to believe that the Conservatives
Of the Legislature are in favor of reconstruction
Of the Unionl A grosser libel was never uttered.
Those who make the charge are either to be pitied
for their ignorance despised for their malice
The charitable construction to be placed on such
conduct is, that the writers have been misled ~
such papers as the Register.
One of these officers speaks of the army return
ing home to break up the internal Legislature /"
We give this as specimen Of the mob spirit which
the Register is encouraging. 1t is the language of
a desperate man, uttered through desperate news
paper. The truth is, two-thirds of our soldiers
agree in opinion with Gov. Vance and the Conser.
vatives of the Legislature. If these officers who
were no doubt appointed on account of their politi-
cal opinions should attempt to crafty their parti-
Fan malice by breaking up the internal Legisla-
ture," as one of them calls it, they would soon find
themselves tossed the bayonets of the Conserva-
tive soldiers Of the State
One of these writers says, "Our soldiers have
every confidence in Gov. Vance, but with one voice
they deprecate, condemn, and denounce the Legis.
ature for its position Of antagonism to the Confed
crate government" We repeat there is no differ.
ence of opinion between Gov Vance and the Legis.
lature. The very measure which this writer de.
nounces as antagonistic to the common government,
Coz. Vance himself recommended. Instead of being
antagonistc to the government, it is in harmony
with it. This writer shows his ignorance of the
views and feelings Of our soldiers in Virginia.
Every one of them is anxious to see the State de-
Tended and nearly every one of them would oe glad
to hear that the State had raised ten regiments 70,
that purpose. Next to the pleasure it would give
them to come home themselves to repel the enemy
would be their qualification at hearing that troops
had been organized in the State with that view.

Gen. Martin.

Oeus m8It1ns
As matter of justice to that gentleman, we pub
lsh the following letter from Gen. Martin. 1t will
be seen the General admits that he holds two offices
of high grade, but he says he has never received
one cent from the Confederate States" This is no
doubt true, for the General would not make false
statement on the subject He says the army regu-
lations prohibit officers holding commissions from
both governments from drawing pay for more than
one Office. What is this but condemnation by the
government itself of the practice Of holding two
offices at the same time? If it be right to hold two
offices at the same time, the government would per-
nit the occupant to draw the salaries of BOTH
But aside from this, the two Offices clearly in
Compatible. We could suppose number Of cases,

..f6ces, the example Of holding both is not only a
bad one, but is in violation of the State Consttu.

declared that Gen. Martin is no longer Adjutant

created, or of making provision to fill it. will devove

The foregoing was meant by the Journal for Gov.
Vance and his friends.
There is no political bitterness in Raleigh equal
to that displayed BY the Editor of the Journal him.
SELF when he was last in Raleigh as member of
the Internal Improvement Board. At former
meeting of that Board, the Governor and Mr. Kirk
land, members Of il, being present. O. G. Parsley,
Esq. Of Wilmington, was appointed the States
proxy in the meeting soon to be held of the stock
holders Of the Wilmington and Weldon Road But
subsequent meeting Of the Board was held Mr..
Fulton being in attendance with Gov. Vance and
Mr.. Kirkland. Mr.. Fulton was anxious to secure
the election Of Destructive or original secessionst
as President Of the Road; and fearing that Mr..
Parsley might not cast the vote Of the State in &C.
cordance with his Wishes he moved to instruct him
to vote for his favorite Mr.. Kirkland agreed with
him, and the instructions were given, against the
earnest protest Of Gov Vance, who desired that Mr..
Parsley should have some discretion left to him in
so important matter Indeed, We learn that Mr..
Fulton modestly offered by his own resolution,
to make himself the State proxy to cast the vote for
his favorte. in the event of Mr.. Parsleys declining
to act; but Mr.. Kirkland, who was governed by
some sense Of deoency and propriety, objected to
that part of the resolution, and MI. Fulton with
drew it Under these instructions, Mr. Wallace
was elected President Of the Road.
Such course was without example in the action
Of the Board. The State representatives had al
ways been left free to do the best they could for the
State and the Stockholders without regard to party
but on this occasion, so intense and indecent was
Mr. Fultons party zeal that he insisted o. the in
structions, for the avowed purposeo placing pQr
liticalfriend in office. And yet he is shocked as5
"poltical bitterness" in the atmosphere Of Raleigh
and turns with an innocent and patriotic air to the
purer atmosphere Of popular feeling and opinion
But this is only one Of many specimens Of the
Journals honesty. That paper is constantly crying
out against party, but is at the same time in every
thing, the most ultra, preudiced, and bgoted party
sheet in the State.
