A CONVINCING ARsUMENT.-The only argu-
ment left to convince the South that the North is
in earnest is that of brute force. All methods to
bring the seeded States back to their fidelity to
the Union has ceased and there is nothing left
but the use Of force. It is "the last argument
to which Kings resort" that will convince them
that there is a General Government to which they
owe allegiance. The argument that General
Rosecrans used at MurfreesbOrO when he covered
the ground with the slain of Bragg's army, car
res with it a convincing effect that ere long will
bring back the seeded States to their former al
| legiance.

Tus rIaHT IL GREESBRiER. A passen-
from Dublin Depot Friday, gives some
s5rthsr particulars of the fight at Dry
eek in Greenbrer, coniirmatory of the
',,te,nents published on Saturday. The
,snslse of the enemy by Gen. Jones was
Jrrisive. and our forces were in hot pur-
s',i, picking up prisoners rapidly. Our
las was about two hundred and fifty
l1ils1 wounded and missing, among whom
.re several valuable officers. The 22d
virginia regiment suffered heavily, and
vas badly cut up. A portion Of our
f,rces are said to have been commando 1

who was mortally wounded.
No further apprehensions arc felt that
,he enemy will be able to reach the Ten.
nessee Railroad with their present force
They have been effectually checked, and
have suffered TO such an extent as to
make another attempt by the same party
entirely out of the question.
A detachment from the main body,
composed of about 1900 men, under
Gen Scanned, were not in the fight, nor
i. their exact locality known. 1t was
thought possible by some that he might
attempt to slip through our lines and tap
the railroad, but such feat was deemed
almost impossible Of success from the
nature of the country, and the disposi.
ton Of our troops. A dispatch from
Dublin, dated the 26th, says one of their
Surgeons, taken prisoner, reports their
loss st about 500. We took about 150
prisoners.

/As AyEcDorE OF GEN EwELL.--In the
Course of the address by Governor Smith,
in Lynchbure, Va. On Saturday night
last, he told the following anecdote Of
Gen. Ewen:
Daring the hero Jackson's lifetime, Gen.
Ewell was wont to remark that jackson
could do the praying and he coald DO the
swearing, and that the two together could
whip the devil. After Gen. Ewell lost leg,
the light Of the Gospel shed its benign in
fuence over his spirit, aud ho became a
Christian. Under the influence of this new
feeling, he found the enemy heavily en-
trenched at Winchester. He said that he
felt averse to exposing his ''poor boys" to the
deadly slaughter certain TO result from an at
tack on the works. He retired to bis tent,
and there spent time In praysrto the throne
Of Grace. Itseemed then, said he afterwards
to Gen. Smith, ~ II o sudden fear got hold OF
the enemy, ana ne ne abandoned : his works

as to lead to the belief that anything very

and reports say that a small force of in

White Ridge or Warrenton road, about
eight miles beyond that city. The pick

friendly, and frequent exchanges Of news
papers and other articles take place be-
tween them.

commenced rebuilding the immense rail-
