From the sOath carolinian:
Cavalry Raids.

Our enemy are now threatening to- accom-
plish their work of destruction and sqG3us'.c
lion. by invading US with an immense cavalry
force. After trying in vain to overrun our
territory with Overwhelming armies, tuiled IN
this, they come against Us with an IRON clad
Acct that they claimed to be unbelievable.
and boosted that their rams ceuldsbut Fort
Sumter down without firing a gun; INIT
sunkeu aud disabled vessels chow the sad fare
of their Wanted .scheme. Ma gab1ed this
great victory by knowing che resources and
preparation in time to meet them. They IRE
now raising very large cavalry forces. and in
tend to destroy our Government stores. rail-
roads, factories, and the growing crops, which
will greatly weaken U.s.
The sncc-saes Of our gallant cavalry in this
kind of warfare has shown to hur f"e the
great value. of the branch of the service, and
they have already nisae several raids AID DE-
ssrUyed q large amount ct property.
The issue is upon us, ard hnW are We to
meet ii successfully? My pisa is this, and
would ear .estly urge ~lualess some one vii

those in authority We should organize our
selves into c; meapies Of ten or twenty men

gun and horse and twenty csrtridges,' and to
be always ready. Most of our, men have
guas, aud il is probable the Government
could now supply tue, deficiency. As., t.
them have ammunition, or sell 1t " them
cheaper than they can get tfrm speculat.,rs.
These companies should have some sPecihed
places Of meeting, in case OF an alarm, and
should thoroughly acanaint themselves With
all the thickets and hiding places .alorg the
roads in. their neixhb"shooda. a body OF Vsn

turn them from their course or impede their
