DEAR SIR: In reply to yours of the 18th
last, in which you say ait appears from the
records of the Department of War that you
~ recommended Col. III. w. Barry of the
late u, S. g. Heavy Artillery, for Brevet of
Maj. General, and ask where he served with
mer" l have 10 express the opinion that
there Is some mistake In the matter. Col.
Barry served n while in Kentucky, while
commanded that Department, but his SER
vices were not of such a character as would
havd justified me in recommending that the
Brevet Of Maj. General be conferred upon
him.
l repeat that there is some mistake In the
matter, which may probably be accounted
for by another examination Of the supposed
recommendation.
Respectfully,

THE RADICALS WANT TO TAXI
THEM AWAY!4
Extract of a letter from q member OF
the Tennessee Legislature, dated.

| Extract of letter from q member of
the Tennessee Legislature, dated.
NASHVILLE, November, 1853.
Dear Sir: Your letter received. You may
rely upon 1t that the Conservatives are
standing firmly by the rights Of the coiored
voters who came so nobly to their aid to
throw off the yoke of the Disfran-
chisers-their right to vote. TO hold
Office, and to enjoy every civil and
political privilege enjoyed by the
whites. The pledge which Etheridge, the
Conservator leader, made after the election,
that they should be protected In all these
privileges, viii be sacredly kept depend
upon 1t. A few scattering bills have been
introduced by men on their individual re-
spOnsibility, but they receive no counte-
nance nor consideration. Their introduc-
ton and reference to Committees are the
last that will be heard of them.
By the scay, sctH mention a deep-lGfd plot
sohieh Is rumored Of an attempt By the Radical
members to combine wtth supposed fn.practfcable
Conservatives against the colored people, but
they could find none OF the latter to cooperate
s'ith them and &c fell to The ground.
You may rest assured that the split be-
tween the colored people and carpet-bag
adventures In this State is wide and deep.
The negroes after six years of trial, have
become heartily disgusted with them. They
tthe colored people) hare been brought under
Radical rule to a far 1oorse condition than they
aoere in tchen they obtained their freedom. The
carpet-baggers, instead of giving them free
schools, filed their own pockets with the
school money. On pretense of aiding the
party that they said was to do good TO the
colored people, they took their money from
them in the Loyal Leagues which was the
last they heard of 1t. And they are now
saddled with debt, (indeed all classes, are)
imposed to pamper the jail-birds that flew
down upon us from the North, which 1t
will take generations to get rid of. The re-
action among the blacks who Gas well as the
whites) were imposed upon by the adven-
turers, has been terrible. 1t will be so in
Mississippi, after awhile, Ii unfortunately
they should get into power, from which
awful calamity may kind Heaven protect
you. L.

the hail and rain storm in that city, on
last Friday week, as terrible. The hail
stones varied from the size of a marble
to that of teacup.
The Republican says the damage SUSTAIN
ed Ia very considerable. Weak roofs have
been broken. fruit trees ruined, cotton beat
en- down, and poultry, sheep, and calves in
jured or killed. The Lunatic Asylum SEEM

broken. the roof Of galvanized iron perfora-
ted, and the rooms deluged with rain. Two
or three tuns OF these ice-lumps lodged on
the roof and were showed off by the inmates.
The Avenue Hotel building lost nearly four
hundred squares Of glass, and other build
ing in proportion. The windows OF the
Capitol, Land Office. Treasury, and other
buildings are well riddled on the northwest
side.
Such quantities of ice fell, that the next

could have been gathered i'm cart-loads from
the low places In the fields where it had
drifted; many of the larger haIlstones
weighing pound and upwards.
