OUR WESTERN COUNTIES.
From the Asheville News, March "a.

Col Palmer returned a few days since from a
somewhat exteRded trip through the western coun:
ties He cleared the western border of the raiders
who were recently committing outrages upon our
deteneeless people; and made such arrangements,
IN the disposition of troops &c as will, we have
reason to hope, prevent the raids to which that
portion OF the country has been subject.
The people Of the western counties have suffer
ed heavily at the hands of the common enemy; and
/; they have not hitherto, owing to circumstances
which could not be controlled, received that pro
lection which we have reason to know the autbori-
tres were always most anxious to extend The
outrages and robberles they have endured have
not impaired their devotion to our cause, nor in
| creased their love for tie beastly invader Thev
are hopeful, and ready to cooperate with the
| authorities in the defence of the country.
Our red allies, the Cherokee Indians are spoken
OF as rendering good service. They are true as
steel to the Confederacy and Notwithstanding
Federal agents have been among them, making
ailurlng promises, they stand firm, and are ever
ready to take the war path at the command of
" MI Stehee"-as they call Col Thomas
The late raid into Clay and Cherokee was un-
dertaken by the Yankees partly for the purpose of
preventing the enrolment Of conscripts in those
counties. In this they succeeded, but vamosed
immediately upon hearing OF the approach of our
troops
LAUREL AGAIN BROKE LOOSE Every few
weeks some outrage is committed which renders
1t necessary to send force into Laurel, to punish
the bands of deserters and tories who making that
their Rendezvous sally out to attack small parties
Of our soldiers, kill citizen, plumber house, or
commit some other diabolical outrage. The butch
cry at lnoia Creek heretofore referred to- induced
the authorities to send force into that country
some days ago Two skirnfishes took place last
week. One on Wednesday, in which some Home
Guards under Col Bird, of Yancy county, fought
Col Kirk and bis band, killing and wounding
two or three. Our loss two men slightly wounded.
On Saturday morning last Maj Mcdowell of the
62d Q Regiment, with detachments from his
own and the Gath regiment, encountered Kirk.
A sharp engagement followed, in which Maj Nc
DoWeii killed five six of the enemy, and wound
sd about the number. We had one man
killed on the field, Henry Gilbert of Henderson
county, member of Capt Morris company: aud
several wounded, one of whom has since died
Mai Nc Dowal himself was severely wounded in
the arm and is now here.
On Sunday morning last, Col Palmer, orr vigi-
iant Department commander with portion of the
18th Mississippi, went down to the seat of opera
tions: If Kirk Will ''come to time" the Mississip-
pi boys will give good account of themselves.
We fear, however, that Kirk will be where the
lrshmans flea when he put his finger on him
not there.

IMPORTANT TO RAILROAD TRAVEL
LERS.

The late order of the Quartermaster General re-
ducing the trains on the several railroads. between
Richmond and Augusta, Ga, limits the facilities
for the conveyance Of the travelling public very
much. The engines taken from .he passenger
trains will be employed in the transportation of
government freight, with Which the Depots along
the several roads are filed to overfowing. The
reduction of the trains has been made known by
advertising, and travellers can make arrangements
accordingly, but there is another reputation, by
order OF saasQ Nj General, which is not SO well
known as a ought to be. The large number OF
ctizoas that crowd the trains the several roads
has been tie subject Of much remark. II cannot
be legitimate business that keeps such numbers in
constant Eotiou particularly ladies, and ID is ap-
parent thst the flush Of Confederate money is, by
some persons, expended in mere travelling from
place to place, either for pleasure, or what is
worse, speculatng on the necessities of their fel-
low citizens by buying cheap in one place to sell
dear at another. Of course this, in itself, is nc
subject iol government interference, but IL must
be recoeo.ed that these travellers for pleasure or
private business seriously interfere with the tians-
portatoH OF the soldiers, proceeding to enjoy their
hard earned and very limited furoughs, and also
detains them In returning to their duty. The cit
izens fill the and the poor soldiers are CON-
PEELED to lay orer for another train, ut ruinous
expense to himself and, in many instances, at tho
risk or punishment for overstaying his furlough
We understand that instructions have been re-
ceived by the superntendents of the several rail-
roads to transport private soldiers first, officers
next, and then citizens, SO that any detention for
want of room must fall upon citizens. Travellers
upon railroads had better be prepared to meet the
contingency whenever they happen to come in
contact with soldiers going home or returning to
their duty. To those compelled by business 70
travel this may occasionally prove an inconven-
ience, but if tie new regulation succeeds in keep
ing at home idlers and mere pleasure-seekers who
now crowd the trains, it will not only be benefit
to the public, but great saving to the parties
themselves Petersburg Register

GEN. d. Ii. HILL AND THE BATTLE OF
CHIoKAMAUGA.-Whi the writer of this article
was in the vicinity Of Chattanooga, in the autumn
of 1868, he Communicated two or three letters to
the Charleston Courier, which freely animadvert-
ed upon the military judgment Of Gen d. Il Hill
darrg tho battle of Chickamauga The informa-
ton on which the opinion, not merely Of the cor
respondent, but of others, was based, was derived
from conversation with those who were supposed
to be familiar with the principal details connected
with that battle. In our last ISSUE however, We
published extract from review Of the cam paign
Of Gen Bragg at Chickamauga, which appeared
In a recent number Of the Richmond Enquirer,
written; as that journal intimates, by one author
lied and certainly fully competent to do Justice TO
the subject. Ia that article, it is plainly stated
that the causes of failure in the campaign around
Chattanooga due to Gems. Longstreet, Polk
and Hindman. Without questioning the truth or
tasity of this allegation, we remark briefly that
the name of Gen. ID. Fl. Hill does not appear in
the article in any light which detracts from his
well earned reputation-a fact which conclusively
shows that Gen. Bragg had no fault to find with
that officer, and that SO far his judgment or his
acts on that occasion are concerned, he is as much
above imputation as any other officer who did his
measure OF duty on that eventful day. Were it
not So Gen. p. Fl. Hill, long before this time
would have had his position defined by Court of
Inquiry. r,..,- '..r
Under these circumstances it is an act of ius-
tce not more to Gen. Hill than to ourselves that,
having made free use of his name in public man
ner, we should, in the public manner, with
the light of the revelations before u.s. confess that
we were misled by the information to which we
had access, and that that justice was not done to
him which subsequent revelation proves to be his
due.
We are prompted to make this frank avowal by
no SuppeStiOn of Others and by no other nnotiva
than desire to compensate for all errors of judg-
ment on our part, which may have had the effect
of marring, in any degree, the wholesome infiu-
ence which should ever attend the presence and
authority of a commanding officer Colunpbia

OBEYING ORDERS TO THE LETTER. hen
the Yankees returned from Bottom Bridge, some
weeks ago. after their futile effort to release the
prisoners in this city, the infamous Cot Spears
alighted at the residence of we'll kuown family In
New Kent and demanded to the young ladies.
When they appeared, he asked, in bullying
tone, if any of the negro soldiers had been there?
The ladies replied in the affirmative What did
they do?' inquired Spears: They stole every
thing they could lay their hands on," was the an
swer. "Was that all?" No. said the ladies,
'they used in our presence such language VIC
never beard before, and hope never to hear again"
Every we'll, said Spears, in tone Of supreme
satisfaction, they did their duty, and obcycd their
orders to the very letter"
Think of this, citizens of Virginia 1t is no
fiction, but well authenticated fact. ''They
obeyed their orders to the very letter." At an
other house, Inhabited by widow lady, these ne
groes acted so outrageously that the lady, beside
herself with Indignation, seized stick and struck
one of them with it. The black rascal Immediate
ly foored her with blow over the head with the
butt OF his mnsket and lett her for dead lying ia
pool of her own blood. This also is a fact The
unspeakable misery of these outrages that there
seems to be remedy for them, no disposition
to afford it.-Richmond Hhfg

na5@ An oficia! dispatch was received in Rich
mond last week stating that the yankees had met
severe reverse near New Iberia, La, and that
two yankee regiments were captured. Also, that
Col Holdman, 3lst Miss, attacked the enemy at

Tennessee represent that Longstreet has again ad-
yanced towards Knoxville. At last accounts our

ton has been received, at the War department,
concerning the landing Of a large force Of the enc
my in Washington, North Carolina. The force is
said to be under the command of Gen Burnside
Whether an immediate forward movement Was
contemplated or not, the recent heavy fall of
in that vicinity, together wi the heavy condition
10 which it will leave the roads, and the attendant
flooding of the swamps, will put stop to any ad-
vance into the interior for some days to come
The .expedtion' is, no doubt, composed largely
of the new evics that have been recently encamp

have been Withdrawn from Meade's army

as before the Ohio expedition. 1t was contempla.
ted to order him to East Tennessee to report for
duty to Cen Longstreet He rcposes great conf
