OdOriferOus Conflict.

The Richmond Examiner predicts that on the
1st Of April fifty thousand negroes who have
been previously drilled in various camps Of in
struction, will be debarked at Acquia Creek
Pugnacious Joseph Hooker, foamiLg at the
mouth from long delay, will organize them into
br gades and divisions with the velocity of fren-
zied Impotence. But it will require six weeks
of incessant toll to perform this simple feat. 1t
is at last accomplished. The pontoons are laid
safely and crossed without opposition. To pre-
vent accident, the Grand ColoTed Division is put
in the van. Greeley, its commander. remains al
AcQuia Greek sswith powerful glass, after the
manner of Burnside The skirmishers Of the
Grand Colored Division are thrown out. They
deploy.
The voice of an overseer calling hogs is heard
in distant field They rally on the reserve
No rebels being visible, they are again thrown
forward. They feel for the enemy, but he is not
to be felt. They fire at nothing fifty feet in the
air, and hit it every time. The rebels being thus
driven to their earthworks, the Grand Colored
Divisions advance at the pas de charge, singing
Methodist refrain, to storm the enemy's posi-
ton, and to sscarry the crest' at all hazards OF
sudden, the artillery Of A. z. HIPS command
belches forth a hurricane of shell and grapnel.--

play of ivory like fifty thousand flashes of light
ming; fifty thousand pairs of charcoal knees are
knocking together, and one hundred thousand
Ethiopian eyeballs are rolling madly in their
sockets, like so many drunken and distracted
moons dancing in an ebon sky; the Grand Col
ored Division trembles like n. ghty pointer dog
on an icy pavement-there is an universal squail
as if all Africa had been kicked upon its shins,
at the self same moment scattering, as if all the
blackbirds crows and buzzards in creation had
taken wings at once. To man, the Northern
army lies PROSTATE in the field, asphyxiated by
tie insuiierabie odopr bequeathed to the atmos-
phere by the dark departed host. For like
cause the rebel army is in full retreat to Rich
mond. Solitary and alone, with his nose in his
hand A. P. Hill surveys the silent scene.

Not Starving Yet

When the Yankees first began to ap-
preciate the stubborn fact that they
could not conquer us by arms, they laid
the ssfattering JUNCTION to their souls
that they could starve us to death, as
they thought we raised little besides
cotton. The census of 1860, which has
recently been published by the Lincoln
Government, shows that besides rice,
sugar and molasses, which the Yankees
cannot raise at all, we have more OF the
staples of life in proportion to popula-
ton than they have. 1t will thus be
seen that if either country is to be star
we'd, it will be the United States and
not the Confederate States. 1t should
be remembered, too, that the census
shows the products before the war, and
when the South were raising as much
cotton as they could Now, however,
great deal Of the cotton land is plant
ed in wheat and corn, which will great
| ly increase the amounts of these staples.
The South is now raising more Of the
necessaries of life than ever before,
whereas the North is raising less, be-
cause great proportion OF thelf TABOR
ing population is in the army consu
ming instead ofproducing. The census
Of 1860 shows the following:

Correspondence between MiIrOy and General
ImbOden-Threats and CCunteT-Threats.

The Wheeling (Va.) ssIntelligencer,' OF the
31st ult., says that some correspondence be-
tween Gen'l Imboden, G.. S. A., and Gent Mil
roy, U. S. A., has been rece ived at the ssExec-
utive Department there by Plerpont, and gives
the following resume of it:
Imboden says that Sheriff Trayhorn, of Bar
bour county, was arrested by his order. He un-
derstands that two rebels named Henry Wilson
and Henry Bowman were recently murdered In
Barbour CO. Imboden further understands that
Is citizens of Barbour county have been arrested
and confined in this city, and are to be executed
in 10 days If Trayhorn not released within that
time. Imboden Informs Gen'l Miiroy that he
will not release Trayhorn, and if the 10 citizens
are executed, 1mbOden WILL execute 81 Union
citizens and officers now in his possession. Im-
boden says he is ssresolved IL at within the Inn
its of the pretended State of West Virginia he
will at all times arrest as dangerous enemies to
his State every man he can lay his hands upon
who holds any Office under the usurped State
Government at Wheeling.'' He says, further,
that when he ascertains for certain that Wilson
and Bowman have been murdered, he will cause
to be executed Lieut.. Dawson, of the lst Virgin
ia cavalry, and Sergt. Atkinson, Of the same
regiment, now in his possession.
Gen. Mlroy replies to these threats that he is
not in command of any troo, in West Virginia
AID knows of nobody who has been murdered
except in battle. Gen. Milroy reminds ImbodeI
| that the number of rebels in his possession is
much greater than the number of Union men
IN Imbeden's, and that he must not presume sc
far upon the forbearance and superior humanity
| of the Federal Government as to put his threat
| of executing Dawson and Atkinson into execu-
ton. Gen. Milroy hopes that Imboden will not
| compel him to the painful alternative which the
execution Of his threat will render inevitable =
! Gen. Milroy says in conclusion:
ri notice that the Confederate Government il
about to offer $I00, 200 for my head. Had yor
not better come down to Winchester and go into
the speculation
Wilson and Bowman, the parties alluded to il
the correspondence, were killed under the fol
lowing circumstances; The morning after Sher
lift Trayhoru kidnapped by the rebels par
of company of Union soldiers started in pur
suit and overtaking Bowman and Wilson upor
the road, near the house Of the latter, command
ed them to halt; instead Of hating, they hurried
on, and were fred upon and killed.
