To the Editor Of the Richmond Dispatch
1t is right and roper the Army OF Northern Vr-
gina should be fully informed OF the true character Of
the man who commands the army confronting them,
and do not know better way to do so than by pub
fishing the facts as they really occurred:

denee OF respectable country gentleman within twenty
miles of Richmond, ard finding person home but a
lady and some helpless children, they Immediately set
about ransacking the premises and having slowed away
thing portable commenced their usual work of de-
strucion, and did not stop until everything of the least
value was destroyed and left this most esmabe lady
and her children without food or rainment-Mrs--

POETRY
The Friends we Love.

Friends whom We love are dearer far
Than wealth, and gold, and Jewels arc,
We would not change a faithful heart
For all the pride such stores impart;
Nor wonld we barter one loved smile
For all the scenes that could beguie
There's not diamond we should prize
Or covct like those beaming eyes,
Whose depth Of sacred truth we've proved
Which fondly tells ms NE are loved
All things Of earth from US may sever,
But love and friendship last forever.
Hearts which are true are mines Of wealth
Our balm in sickness Joy in health
Tongues that will breathe no bitter word,
From whom no malice ceT is heard,
And minds which We need never fear
TO SANDERS voice viii yield the ear;
Hands which we clasp with faith and trast
or souls that when we're tufn'd to dust,
Shall in their mighty truth arise,
And meet again beyond the skies;
FOR earthly stores consolr ms never.
But love and friendship last forever.
