omclal PRAISE Of tho NeEro.

Secretary STANTON, in the Bulletin we pub
lish to day concerning the fight at Long
Bridge, says "the hardest fighting was done
by the negroes" 1t is a very great outrage
on the people Of the adherng States-the
fathers, mothers, sons aud brothers Of white
soldiers-to tell them, as this man STANTON
does, and as the LINCOLN press does, that the
negroes are superior to the white soldiers. 1t
was only yesterday that we had occasion to
note the terms OF Telegraphc dispatch,
which stated that "sxteen hundred white sol
diers, Of STuRGIs' force, owed their safety to
q convoy of two hundred negroes : and now
STANTON makes official announcement that the
white men in GRAST's army do not fight as
we'll as negroes Let any who doubt that this
most insolent ealumny has been published By
STANTON, read his dispatch Suppose som'
Democrat had uttered slauder Of this sor
on our white troops, what storm of indigna
ton it would have excited. Is STANTol
licensed to slander the army, that he is per
mitted to do so with impunity2

An Era of Mediocritv.

We hear in conversation, aud in the public print',
that there Il dear,h of ability in the Confederate
States never known before We are Of those who be-
eve there talent aud capacity in the country but it
has been greatly encouraged and developed In either
civil or military life. Competency, Gays the Charles
ton Mercury of preferment. In
wise and virtuous republics il has been considered
grand criterion of fitness for the public service Sue
80 was formerly the standard OF military excellence
But oquesooably these principles have not been APP
Piled In this revolution. Qualities smiabe, and
less Imposing and valuable, have constituted the tests

ceaee and popular pleasantness have had Ia sc desi
rabenes ia the eyes of a-haYe been the order Of the
day--the role. Men Of mind have not been much hunt
Ell up by either people rulers for the management
of our t4hs How is it in tbs State, for example
Sterling men-men like the Hon. Charles N. Furman,
the Hon. Benjamin F. Dunkiu, the Hon. James H. Ham
mond have been invited to lend the aid of their vi
gorOus clear and comprehensive minds to the suffering
cause OF their country. Men, VIGOROUSLY not their
EQUALS have been selected for the direction of civil
business.
Therefore, We say, it sIan unWarranted presumption
to assert that there not al abundance OF talent in the
army and out Of it. When competency and

wants, then if ability cannot be found, it will be time

Take Courage.

We are standing upon the edge'of a crisis which
calls for the best strength and the mobiles. energies Of
our people. Our situation is by no means desperate,
set il is one which demands of men to pause and
gsot. Drifting 60 heedlessly down the cur
rent our IA is inevitable; but let country up and
face the stern reaty-le dreams be dipeLed and false
hopes be bured-et the busy note of preparation ring
through the nov stsguated country, and we have no
fear for the future. The next campaign is the hinge
on which may swing our destnies and it is for US 10
say whether we shall be uJhercd into the presence OF
events gilded with the halo Of success, or darkened
with the shadows of defeat II our people will be but
true to themselves says the Columbia CarOlinan, true
TO the instincts which have permeated the breasts of
every nation who have fought for and their liberty,
and true TO the great principles which at the beginning
OF the war stood high water mark in every heart
have no fear OF the result God is by our side though
he fights with visor down. Our cause is Truth ITSELF
and truth can never fail. Our physical strength is
abated only Tor the moment Power, mighty poSer
is SILL latent on the strong arm and will Of the people
Being forth this young giant, instil into his heart the
genius Of morality and religion, unite faith with labor,
md prayer with good works, and believe that the
Almighty will again shower down upon those won
deru blessings which in the past have made nation

OF near or quite sevsntyhSe years, had been one OF
great activity aud Of much usefulness, public and phi
vate. He was in the Of 1872 was for some years
member of the State Senate and also of the Conven
tons of 1920 and 1910 to reform the Constitution
His business operations aArge SCALE and though
attended with varied fortune, were conducted with
holiness energy and sagacy, that indvidualized him
as man and showed him to be possessed OF strong and
dominant traits of character His mind was one.of
much vigor and bis information extensive His hospi-
tally was without bounds and his charities many and
liberal His nature was cordial and his ssnsbilitts
quick and generous. These the leading oharac-
tsrstics Of a man who has filed large space in the
social bu iness and political history Of Virginia for half
century. The whole community suffers when such a
man dies Il temper tn, grief of those nearest to
him to remember that after having lived life of use
