ENFORCED RESPECT.

All men instinctvely respect plucky oppo-
nent; and it is pleasant to observe, by occa-
sional symptoms, that the hard knocks dealt out
by the colored troops are compelling even the
Rebels to treat them as soldiers. An instance
of this ha, lately occurred at Beaufort, S. c.
When the Ist South Carolina Volunteers
(Col. Higginson) were first put on advanced
picket at Port Royal Island, all flags OF truce
ceased for tins at the iery-the usual point
of OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES the Rebel officers
stated, not discourtcously but distinctly, that
they were ordered not to recognise the officers
Of that regiment
The next time the regiment was sent on its
tour OF picket duty, the overtures were made in
a different manner A detachment OF 60 black
soldiers, under Capt Bryant. landed by night
on the main land-captured two plckcts-sent
a squad under a black sergeant within two miles
of Pocataligc-brought away from that region
"a conirabands-were pursued By cavalry
force OF a hundred led on By fire b'oodhonnds-
killed all the dogs, together with the captain oil
the company and five men-and returned to the
main land with six black men wounded and
none killed by the enemy. Two who were
separated from the rest were drowned in cross
ing muddy creek.
Now mark the result. Two days after Gen.
Saxton had occasion to send flag of truce, in
reference to other matters. This time there
was no rcpugnance to negotiating with the
officers of the lst S. C.. V. The Rebel officers,
one of whom was in the fight admitted the
courage of the negroes, regretted the loss OF the
Captain and particularly of the dogs, and Ill
general behaved Ike gentlemen.
Moral Conquer peace instead Of crinsing
for II.
We understand that one of the slain dogs was
brought away, skinned, and forwarded to this
city, to be stuffed and mounted, as trophy for
the regiment. II is intended to exhibit il for a
short time in this city, when prepared, as
specimen of Southern warfare. These hounds
belong to rare and costly breed, having been
valued at several hundred dollars before the
war and at fabulous price now. The prisoners
admitted that it would be easier to replace the
men than the dogs.

not be ours.

They were not in any sense military captures

proposed to Nh Ould that he would send him

Meanwhile the Government is doing what /.

in Richmond, but it is plain that from is
present position it can recede neither with
safety nor with honor.

Of money to continue the payment Of the bounty
All friends of the Government, therefore, who
are able, should come forward and assist in the
work by taking the bonds. The loan, it is true
needs to be sanctioned by the Legislature Du'
there car be no question that the Senate
Assembly, and Governor Seymour will unite in
legalizing it. Gov. Seymour is already pledged
to approve any bill that may be passed. ana
both the other branches are OVERWHELMINGLY
LOYAL. There is no risk, therefore, in lending
the money. and it ought to be regarded as q
patriotic duty to assist in such work.

There are many persons in this city who are
anIious TO DO something to promote enlistments,
but do not know how. To some Of them we
suggest that they can in no way just at present
do more than by subscribing for the bonds now
issuing by the Controller to raise money to pay
she County bounty. The offer of $500 in hand
has already had the effect to bring forward
yecruits at the rate Of hundred day, and
there is every prospect that the number will be
greatly increased during the present week. But
if 1t is 50, the Supervisors will soon be in want

The brief campaign of the Army Of the foto'
mac is over Having successfully crossed the
Rapdan, driven Lee back upon the orange anu
Alexandria road, fought one brisk battle on our
left wing, and nearly used up their limited sup
nlv of rations and forage, council OF war was
held. at which it was concluded that a return to
the old camping ground was dictated by every
aspect of the case. The main reasons for this
course are these: Short rations and difficulty OF
bringing up more; the enemy strongly In
trenched in a position which could not be car
ried in auy event without great loss; very cold
weather, making it certain that our wounded
in case of assault, would suffer and die by
hundreds before they could be cared for. These
facts led to the order for retreat. There was ne
fighting-not even skirmish; and the entire
army recrossed the river with all its trains in
tact. The entire loss of tho campaign is 6Ot
killed, wounded, and missing, of whom 90 only
were killed. The railroad and telegraph is ii

Every parent should feel the impor-

education, and see that his children are
as thoroughly instructed in it, as any

manship are evident--the want of it
has been a serious drawback upon
thousands in the chase Of fortune. In
this day, when its acquisition has been
reduced TO a mathematical certainty
certain rules having been assiduously
followed for short time--there is really
no excuse for clumsy bungling, or illeg-
IDLE penmanship. A course or two of
lessons from q teacher like Mr.. DoLBEAR

which placed them under his charge.
Some persons have more natural aptitude
than Others-more "construotiyeness," as
the phrenologists would say-and these

quire fair hand under his instruction
Let no one be afraid or ashamed to try
