lnents to tho ladies' of Stanton for package Ct
cloth socks and gloves-36 pairs of socks and
q pairs of gloves They were received a short
time since, and many of the men being destitute
of socks suffered from the exceedingly cold
weather, or were excused from duty for want Of
this necessary article of clothing, thus leaving
the duty, to be performed by those better psoyi-
ded, much harder than it ought to have been.-
But owing to the timely arrival OF this package
the men were rendered: comfortable for the time,
and Tomorrow when the regiment goes on pick
ct all will be able to go.
The ladies may think they cannot do much to
advance the interests of our cause, and may
feel discouraged at times in regard to their eff
forts; ii SO, they know not how much their la
bors contribute to the preservation Of the health
and efficiency of the army, aud do not realize
how highly their efforts are valued by the Off
GERS and men. A soldier that has warm sc cks
Is not particular whether they are yarn or cloth
and moreover his health is preserved during the
Winter and he is ready for the earliest Spring

CELLAR DOORS.

The numerous cellar doors in the
payements on main street are in ev
cry state of dilapidation from a bro
ken hinge to a total wreck. II is al
most dangerous to walk the pavements
on that street, as the broken cellar doors
make more trap-doors than are in the
Bridge of Life as described by Addison
in the "Vision of Mira" A stranger
would conclude that the houses along
that streetar not occupied. The condi-
ton OF the cellar doors is a disgrace to
the town, and shame to the owners of
them. No business man should be pa
tronized who neglects to keep his eel
lar door in q good condition. The man
who is too stingy to have his cellar door
will cheat his'customer if he
can. Tits time now to repair the eel
lar doors and become honest tfadesmen
and fair dealers.

ACCIDENT ON THE CENTRAL RAILROAD.
On Wednesday, the down passenger
train on the Central railroad met with
an accident two or three miles below
Charlottesville. The accident was
caused by the breaking of an axle of
the ladies' car, which was in the rear
train. The car was thrown down an
embankment, overturned and badly
broken. Several lady passengers in
the car were severely injured, though
not dangerously, and one man killed
outright, his head being literally mashed

EDUCATION FOR CRIPPLED
SOLDIERS.

We give below an extract from the
ENQUIRER of the 7th, ult. which must a
waken the generous sympathy of every
patriot in our State. Surely Virginia
will not be behind her sister States in
providing for her crippled sons. ALE.
ghany College offers an asylum to the
main ed of all denominations and of no
denomination. HeEce the liberality Of
cur citizens in this patriotic enterprise
should be free of all prejudice from
sectaria1ism and local jealousies. We
are gratifed to learn, from the Agent
that all classes and sects are cooperating
in this noble work. Let us press the
plan to completion while our currency
is abundant. Says the Enquirer
owe renew the appeal in behalf o.
this benevolent Institution, and hope
that with the opening Of the new year
and their ascertained prosperity our PEG
pie will generously meet their claims
when presented. What more cheering
encouragement could we give to those
of our countrymen who are in the felo
than to assure them that grateful coun
try will provide for the education Of
those who are rendered helpless by the
disasters of war. How it will tighten
the heavy load on a fathers heart when,
in the face of death, he reflects upon
such generous provision made for the
loved ones whom he may never sec a
gain Who that is at home will with
hold this consolation from those in the
field?
A gift for this object will add nerve
to many an arm that battles for indie
pendence."

LIE AIM AND HOPE OF OUR ENEMIES. -
Our enemies in this atrocious war aim
altogether at injuring, running aud hui
initiating rs. Their hope is to starve
US, to reduce us to famine and naked
ness, to crush us under the cruel plague
OF disease and hardship in every most
hldeous form. To shut us out from the
trade of the world, to ravage our farms
ana destroy our agricultural nipple
ments, to deprive us of medicine for
our sick and wounded, and finally to
stir in every family the unspeakable
horrors of servile ins1rrection; these are
their means and ends, the alpha and
the omega, of their ignCble crusade
They would rather conquer us by any
method than by fighting. They are
not ashamed to gloat over the prospect
OF our spirit and manhood being bro
ken by hopeless disease, and the very
form OF humanity being ground out Of
us by the wasting hunger. Their very
clergymen, their very women eagerly
long for the day when the survivors Of
our Confederates, hardly supporting
themselves on their wasted limbs, hard
" gibbering human speech, shall totter
to their footstool and feebly stammer
ont submission & repentance And we
have never wronged or injured them
never. Not even now do we seek to do
them hurt. It will surely be remember
ed hereafter by that sanle history which
is to pronounce on the events of this
wicked war, and by the omnipotent
God, who searches all hearts, that the
wrong and outrage and savagery were
at one side, the knightly courtesy and
gentle chivalry at tho other. Rich. En-
2asarer.

Col. and Captain, both wounded, five
Lieuterants and 217 priyateS; also six
dcserters from the 9th Va, Battalion,
and twelve citizens, thirteen negroes
twelve men and one woman, six wagons

9Th Va. Cavalry, one private of the 34th
Va. Battalion, and one private, company
and regiment not given.
The Yankee force at Wiseman's con-
sisted of near four hundred, all of whom
would have been captured, but tor lit
tie imprudence of our boys. Mher
Gen. Jones' command came in sight Of
the Yankee camp, the men made dash
and hurrahing at the top of their voices
gave the alarm to the sleeping Yankees
and about 10 made their escape.
Col Peters horse was shot from under
him.
The LATE F1GHr IN FLoRIDA.--A des
patch dated Lake City, Fla, February
Oath, says that the enemy have alan
doned their position on the St. Mary's
river, and arc retreating to their gun
boats. Our loss in the late fights is put
down at thirty-five killed and from 700
TO 500 wounded. The enemy's loss is
estimated to have been between $500
and 5000. The enemy's force is said
to have numbered about 10000 men of
all arms, whilst ours would not exceed
1900. Two of their negro regiments
were placed in front, and urged on at
the point OF the bayonet. At distance
they withstood our fire, but as our lines
advanced they broke in confusion
More than one half Of the two negro
regiments are reported to have been
killed and left dead on the field.
The prisoners taken represent their
forces rs much demoralized by the result
of the fight, an unusual proportion of
their loss having been in officers. The
number Of small arms captured in this
fight was sixteen hundred.
