The News.


Our columns this week will be found to con-
cain items of interesting news. Gen. Dick
Taylors's splendid achievements in Louisiana and
Gen. Forests in Tennessee, have rarely IL ever
been surpassed during the war. Indeed every
where, since the campaign opened, our arms
have been victorious, except in few small
skirmishes, The news from the army of Nor
thern Virginia, is OF the most encouraging
character. The brave men Of Gen. Lees army
are as confident of success rs if the victory had
been won. Yankee deserters say that great
apathy and evil ferbodings pervade the Federal
army The term Of service of thousands OF
Meade's men expires early in May, and as they
do not desire to 90 home dead they will do but
little fighting. We are expecting by every mail
to hear Of the beginning Of the great battle,
which certainly cannot be deferred many days
longer.

notice in the Vlrginlan of the I'D inst,
some questions put to VIM King Heiskell and
his answers thereto. Whilst there is no direct
charge made against me, still there is an insinu-
alton that conveys charge thatI, as Sheriff of
this county, have collected the county money
and made use of it for my own private advali-
tage. II this was the intention Of the party pro-
pounding the interrogatories,t and think this
is the only fair Interpretation Of the language
pronodnce the covert charge thus made, talse
and slanderous.
Now to the law and the testimony. The first
paragraph of section Is Of Code Of Va, chapter
53, upon this point is this !: aWheneyer requir-
ed by the Court after six months from the date
of All order for levy, or (ifIot so required be-.
fore, on the 1st day Of the May term, after such
order, the Sheriff or collectors shall settle with
County Court his account of the levies.'' Now,
in the absence of any order being made by the
Court for settlement Of the levy, am entitled
under the law until the first day OF next Court
to make my settlement. What are the facts
The County levy amounted tonear twenty thou
sand dollars; settled beforesthe 1st day Of Ja-
nuary, 1864, about eleven thousand five hundred
dollars, and about fifteen hundred dollars on
the 18th day of january, 1864; and have the.
proper receipts for the same. At the March
term of the County Court of this county, paid
over under the order Of the Court, about six
SAVuSsiu uVA6i sAiiUfS OsA uCCVuuI Vi tDc levy,
which had collected after the LIST day of JanI-
airy, 1864. Thelaw of Virginia authorized me
to receive Confederate Statestreasury notes in
payment of taxes. did receive them. The
Confederate States Congress passed law late
in its session laying tax Of a3A per cent. upon
all non-nterest bearing Confederate States trea-
sury notes over the denomination Of five dollars
after the lst day of April, 1864 Was this my
| fault, or can any candid man blame me for the
act of Congress? As to the tinls these settles
ments have been made by my predecessors in
office, upon enquiry of the Clerk of our County
Court, he informs me that none Of their settle.
ments have been made withinlthe time prescrib-
ed by law. paid this money over before the
list of. April. 1t was DEPRECATED by the act of
the law, and not by my act. How then in cam
dor and fairness can be- held responsible for
the lossi have read somewhere, certainly not
from the page of inspiration. but from modern
prophet and highly respectable authority, an
expression similar to this: TT is known to
every one that the enemies of q candidate often
resort to ISLANDERS and tradnctions. | trust

We have inadvertently omitted to notice the
appointment of Maj. GOODWIN as.SuPERISTEN-.
pAxT of the Va. & Tenn. Rail Road. Maj.
GOODWIN was q member Of Gen. Bragg's staff,
and has the reputation of possessing unaagglng
energy and very high administrative abilities,
In the resignation of Mr.. Dodamead, the late
Supt, the Company lost most admirable and
gsntlemanly officer. If Maj GOODWIN can bring
to the service Of the Road anything like Mr..
DIS official energy and promptitute in business
he will entitle himself to the gratitude Of the
country.
by the way, the present management Of the
Road is certainly a source Of congratulation to
the Company and Stockholders. Col. Owen,
the worthy president, has, under the pressing
weight of his ramifed duties, shown himself an
officer Of very high order of ability; and we
should judge from our own observation of the
amount Of transportation required by the State
and Confederate authorities, to say nothing Of
the private demands upon the road that if he
performs a 1.-THE Of what is demanded Of him he
will do well. The transportation over this road
has very largely contributed to the forage sub
sistence of the army Of Northern Virginia; and
but for the energy and purpose Of Col. Owen
in supplying this demand, it would have been
impossible for Gen. Lee to have maintained his
Cavalry and Artillery organizations in their eff
fcient and active condition.

A Chunk of a Fight.

Rumor informs us that. three Yankee rcgi-
ments--one white and two black attacked Gen.
Jackson at Carriers Station, 20 miles below
Bristol, on Monday last. Gen. Jackson, with q
force Of not more than or 400 men, repulsed
them in gallant style, killing-'8, wounding Is
and capturing 4. Our loss was two killed and
three captured.
In a hasty note from an officer who was in
the fight, we learn that the enemy had not more
than 300 men engaged at any one time. They
commenced the attack on the morning of the
25th, were handsomely repulsed, remained in
sight till the next morning, since which they
have not been seen. It is said that they are at
Jonesboro', about 1900 strong, consisting Of
cavalry and artillery. Their loss Was about so
in killed and wounded, including Major and
Csptain Of the 10th Michigan. Our loss was
three wounded, one dangerouslyand two slight
", and Eve captured.
