TO irjure T. N. Norton, candidate for Con.

BY me; and an attempt is made to show that
Mr.. Norton was advertising himself, and
that the article did not contain the facts.
Mr. Norton knew nothing of what was In

then objected to part Of it, thinking it

On Sunday the fight seems TO have not

or any considerable portion Of it. The force
Of the enemy that crossed at Stark's and
Kelly's fords did net exceed two regiments
of cavalry, several pieces Of artillery, and
few hundred sharpshooting infantry. Our
forces fell back At Brandy Station this
force encountered General w. H. F. Lees
brigade of cavalry, commanded by Colonel
Beal, of the Ninth Virginia; and the bri-
gade, after fighting some time, fell back
farther, and the skirmishing was kept up
through the afternoon. Our forces took
twenty five prisoners, and killed and wound
ed as many as they captured il is thought.
Our loss is not over twenty-five men alto
gcther-killed, wounded and missing. Col
Beal, commanding, was slightly wounded,
but remained on the field
Beyond the above passengers by the Cen

particulars. The enemy occupied Culpeper
Court House and held that portion Of the
Orange and Alexandria Railroad. II was

The Buffalo Courier put the question to
Abolitionists and selfstyled "Loysl Demo
orats," who are accustomed to allege that
the Administration must De supported AND
all its acts endorsed because it has to deal
with the rebellion, that as the next Con
gress is to be anti-administrat tion, and likely
to have quite as much to say about the re
belion as the President, whether the "loy-
aln men intend to be loyal to the President
and disloyal to Congress, or loyal to Con

Nh. STONE. the Abolition candidate fer
Governor of Iowa, says he "wouId rather
eat with niger, drink with niger, live
with niger aud sleep with niger, than
with Copperhead.'
Tastes differ, and we sbould not attempt
to account tor Mr.. Stones preferring to eat,
drink, live and sleep with nigger rather
than with white person whose politics are
not like his own. Generally, respectable
people now prefer the white race, unde,
these circumstances to woolly heads, how
ever extreme in politics.

ONE would naturally suppose that If ne
gro freedom and equality with the white
race were such priceless boons, and tend
ed in so great measure to the uninter
rupted prosperity ofthe country as the abo'
litionists for years have so constantly as.
serted, then certainly the loyal people oI
New Orleans, who can judge fr better
than these false philanthropists of the
North of the comparative value Of free and
slave labor, ought to be enthusiastically ir
favor of the abolisment of slavery. But
such is not the case, as the following para.
graph, taken from the editorial in the New
Orleans True Delta Of a recent date, and
which we believe reflects the sentiments o
reslly loyal men both North and South
upon the question Of slavery, will show:
