pHunter, the miserable scoundrel
who committed such wanton and barbaric
acts in Virginia. has become disguised at
his own inonstrons conduct and retired
from the cause of sufjugation. Hunter
has put many black spot on the foul

bids fair to figure alongside of Butler,
Milroy and Mcneil, in the'history of this

beat him with the torch, no coward can
surpass him in cruelty. His strategy is

HEALTH OF LEES ARNY.-According to
Richmond Ietter.writers, there is as much
sickness in the army of Northern Yir-
ginia, in proportion to numbers, as there
has been at any tiraa -sinca- the. first year
oR the war. me sickness is not Of 9
malignant type, however, being chiefly
intermittent fever and disorders of the
bowels. The terrible campaign in which
the men have been engaged, the recent
almost unparalleled term Of drought and
hot weather, constant duty in the
trenches, absence of vegetable food and
fruit, as well as the lack of good water,
and the chill AMI fever producing district
in which the trc ops are encamped, have
all conspired to impair the health Of the
army.

''if adopt a wrong policy, an opportu-

Then can be turned out and a better
man put in my place." The people of the
North have long since discovered Lincoln
was the wrong man. The human slaugh
ter pens of his creation in Georgia anc
Tennessee, in Miesissippif and Louisiana
and on the rugged hills AID in the valley:
of Virginia attest this. He has preyer
himself the most complete tyrant of mod

Gen. Hampton occupied a prominent

enough1for his cavalry to know that the
eye OF their noble leader was upon Them.

controlled and directed all their opera
