HE RETREAT FROM MURFREEsBoRo.
CARD FROM GEN. wITHERs.
CHuEcHuLA, January II, 1863.


The report being circulated that the
retrogr"de movement OF our army at MUIR
treesboro' was ordered by the General
Commanding in opposition to the advice
of Corps and Division Commanders, il not
sustained by the truth. The movement
was suggested by two division and sustain
ed bys corps commander, after l2 o'clock
on he night Of lI'e 81 :ns,., and was then
rejected BY the General Commanding. On
the morning Of the Sd inst. the General
ascertalned that a|l the Corps and Divis.
ion Commanders concurred in the opinion
that the army should be Withdrawn, and
not in Its then worn condition put to the
hazard Of another general engagement.
He about the same time learned the fact of
renforcements having been received BY
the enemy. 1t was then that he yielded
his op ,osition and ordered the movement.
Suppose the General had> adhered to his
first determination and diSas'es sab1d been
the result. what would have been hisppo.
silion then 2 If this movement did M
command the appreciation of every Brig
rad' 'SIVts'sq- and Corps commanded, then
present with he dFmy, hass%f to hear
OF the exception. l cannot believs-tfat
the army numbers among its gepefals one
ofthose creatures who is alwaSs wise alter
the fact, AMI bold when there is no danger.
A man who has given his all 10 his country
should at least have Justice.

w. A Richardson, now in the Fede raj

Last week in the House Mr.. Richardson

said:
Ma. CHAIRMAN The annual message
recently sent to this house by the Presi
dent of the United States is the most re-
markable o: any that has ever been de-
l'vered to Congress. 1t is remarkable 70,
what 1t says, and still more remarkabl.
Tor what it om:ts to say. One half of the
twenty one pages Which it covers is de-
voted to the negro. No page, no sentence
no line, no word, is given to land, or even
10 mention. the bravery and gallantry, OF
eve" the good conduct Of our soldiers ;c

and to the helpless orphan made during
the progress Of this war, which couli have
been avoided BY honorable ormpronise. il
the Pre- .idsnt and bis friend, had cho,ar
10 do so.
Sir. It is a remarkable document, Iii,
an extraordinary message. when We come
to think Of its sum and substance. To
feed, .clothe. buy and colsnizs the negro.
We are to tax and mortgage the white
man and lis children. The &Lite race i
TO be burdeued TO the earth for the bsnefi,

A friend Of mine from N. w ENGLAND
the other day made mathematical anal.
ysis of the message. He said one from
one and naught remains. Naugbt from
nahght and the message remains. [Laugh.

The YANKEE GENERALS At y1cKs
RrRG.-A correspondent of the Mobile
Register gives the following account OF two
or three of the Yankee off .ers who were
killed or wounded near Vicksburg:
Gen. Wyman, formerly superintendent
OF tho Illinois Central RaiIroad-a road Al.
ready famous for having given to til. Yam
kee army those grand military hnn,bug.,
Mcclellan and Burnside one
OF the oldes. and finest brigades in the ab.
ol'ti"n service. At the commencement
Of the war Wymon raised regiment of
railroad employers, and was ordered to
Misso:ri. where Lis regiment renamed up .
til ordered to assist in the taking of oV,cks-
burg. A brigade was then placed under
Wfman's command, and at the head Of this
brigade, which was badly cut up when at
tacking the fazoo stronghold.. Wyman
was killed. lie is mourned by tie Yam
KEGS as one o! their bravest and most skill.
ful officers.
General Morgan d. Smith, formerly a
steamboat runner in St. Louis, command
ed what was stJ led Missouri brigade but
composed wholly Of convic,s pardoned ou,
OF the Illinois State Prison upon conii-
lion Of j''i"ins the army. 1t was the in.
famously notorions E'gth Missouri, noted
for every kind Of inhunian outrage and the
burning Of large portion Of the city OF
Memphis. General Smith, the leader OF
this desperate band, was mortalIy wouu-
ded. Smiths reputation for .swindling
operations while at Memphis is equal to
that OF his infamous command, and none
will say that he did not deserve his fate.
Colonel Smith, brother of General Smith
and .leadrr Of one OF these soidisfant Mis-,
sour regiments, Was also killed. And a.
mong the wounded in onr hands at Vicks
burg, llearn, is Captain Hayden, formerly
whiting master in St. Louis, and well
known as an atheist. His atheistical and
abolition doctrines naturally brought him
into the Yankee line, and at the defeat on
the Y"zoo he had an arm shot off Sbict
will perhaps interfere somewhat with bis
Penmanship, Of which he was, ,dasergedly.
proud. Such is the fate of three hboii-
