In our recent Congressional cleo

mishers, to DISCOVER the magnitude
r and position Of the1enenay, and we
found him as we expected, and as we
have often found him before-posted
in full strength behind his heavy
works of treason. We have thor
oughly reconnoitred his foul camp,
ascertained the amount and disposi-
e,iion of his demoralized forces, the
location, number, and calibre of his
guns (Which, by the way, are very
much like those they had mohnted at
Manassas, and which served, so long

up to the work, and all pull together;
for this is duty which we not only
owe to ourselves, for our own safety,
but duty imperatively demanded of
US by our country, for the peace,
welfare and happiness of future gen.

up to our duty like rational men,
and thus prove our principles, spirit
and manhood, or forever stand back
and suffer humiliating defeat to our
shame, as we have in the past We
