A Touching ScENE.-A correspon-
don't of the Sentinel, writing about the
skirmish at Morton's Ford, in Culpeper,
relates the following touching occur
renee:
Adjutant Taylor, of the % regiment, was
killed in the fight at that point, and his body
was brought over the river on horseback, q
soldier sitting behind him, holding him in
his arms, aud another riding by the side,
leading the horse, as no ambulance could be
obtained at the moment and when they
reached the Orange shore. a scene occurred
which was well calculated to move the stout
est and coolest heart, aud many eyes unused
to tears were seen weeping freely. The
faithful servant Of the Adjutant was on
horseback near the shore, and as soon as he
discovered the lifeless form of his beloved
master he burst into tears and wcpt aloud,
and followed on behind the procession,
weeping as if in inconsolable grief, until
they passed out of sight. l thought at the
moment that would have been glad il the
whole Yankee nation could have witnessed
that interesting scene, as they have for three
years been labOring upon most gigantic
scale to liberate the poor negroes" from
bondage, aud yet that poor fellow who wept
at the fall of his master, would have pre-
ferred that every Yankee between there and
Boston should be slain instead of him.

S1LxA, Oct. 1e.--Preddent Uavis ar
rived here. this evening, and yfas vel
coined by the citizens N aaasss An i'm
mense crowd gathered in froGk Of the
hotel. The President congrats Ted the
people on meeting them unde ench f.
vorable circumstances, and ike in
glowing terms Of the gallantsof Ala
hamians on every battlefield. He said
# the conscripts Of AlAbaA would
gather their guns and 60 % tl|rescue,
by guarding Coortland and psintf
thereby t1Ilstin = DN1fe
now from necessity discharging that sort
of duty, such blows would be dealt the
enemy as he would find it difficult to
recover from. In this way most effective
aid could be given the gallant men and
officers who are carrying out the plans
Of the noble Longstreet, under the su-
pervision Of the heroic Bragg.
In this way, the President was conf
dent that Rosecrans could be crushed to
dust. 1t was only by force of arms that
the Yankees could be brought to reason,
and their plans for our subjugation de.
feated. Selfreliance and energy was now
our duty. We should not look to Europe
for aid, for such is not to be expected
now. Our only alternative was to sus
tain ourselves with renewed energy AMI
determination, and little more sacrific,
upon the part Of the people, and th'
President firmly believed that next Sprin:
would see the invader driven from oul
borders. Then farmers, who are now
refugees, could return to their families
and pursue their business undisturbed a.
heretofore. In fact, he believed that the
defeat of Rosecrans would practically
end the war.

THE BIC SALEs.-The crowd in attend
ance at the recent cargo sales in Will
mington is said to have been unprece-
dented. Every section Of the Confede-
racy was represented, and the prices OBJ
tanned for all articles were enormous.
Quininr. sold, we hear, for $76.25 per
ounce. Last February it was slow at
SIG. The Wilmington Journal, of Fri
day evening, says:
We have endeavored to get schedule OF
prices obtained at the auction yesterday and
day before for publication, but have been
unable to do So The prices paid for most
articles would astOnish the "Jews," who ap-
peared to have been pretty well overslaughed
in these sales. They were, comparatively
speaking, "nOwhere." The Gentiles are
said to have been the most successful bid
ders
1t is stated that citizens Of Petersburg
alone expended $500, 600.
