PETERSBURG, March 6. 1873.
Tuesday night the barn Of DR.. Gurley, in
Prince George county, five miles from the
city, was destroyed by fire, with all its con.
tents. The barn contained eleven thousand
pounds of loose cotton belonging to DR.. Cur.
lev, aud Il bale Of cotton belonging to one of
his neighbcrs, together with valuable ma.
chinery, cotton gins, etc. Or. Gurlcv esti-
mates his loss al s., 900, on which there IS IN
insurance of $1,000, partly in the insurance
agency of Mr.. Cuthbert, of this city, and
partly in Richmond company. The fire, it
is ascertained, was the work Of al incen-

subjects, and the meetings will be continued
while the prospect Of doing good remains.

The Richmond dispatch says: "Thc pro.
prictors OF the Congressional Globe have
favored US with circular setting forth state
ments intended to show that Congress would
not be justified in transferring the contract
for printing the debates of that body to W.
j. Murlagh. 1t needs 10 argument to con.
vince us of this. Nor do we believe that
Congress will transfer the contract TO Mur-
tagh or to anybody else" The logic of this
is that it needs no argument to convince the
Democratic Dispatch that half million
dollars should he taken out of the Treasury
during the next six years, provided only
that it goes to build up its parry and enrich
its friends Washington Republican.
Not SO. The logic Of it is that Congress
is not SO green as to take the bid Of the pro-
pretor OF the Washington Republican, when
that body supposes the work will not be as
well done, and has reason to fear that he
would hereafter apply for increased compen-
sation, and knorS that nobody but BAILEY
and RrEs can supply the back volumes OF
the Globe. We will add for the delectation
of the Republican that we would not DC
without the Globe for double its cost, as we
have proved by subscribing and paying for it.

who do. We do not intend to fight against

| Messrs. Editors,-Tlie Geographic sketch"
of the late General Ed. johnson, which ap-
peared in yesterdays Dispatch, contains
more than one error. VIII corrections be
acceptable? You say, AT the memorable
battle of Allegheny he defeated General Rey-
nolds, and here received painful wound"
&c. The fact is, Milroy and not Reynolds
led the Yankees at Allegheny on the 18th Of
December, 1851, and was terribly castieated
| by the troops under the command of Colonel
| johnson, who was rewarded by promotion
| for that victory; and General johnson was
not wounded on that occasion, but lgas
| wounded in the spring Of 1862, at Mcdowell,
on the occasion of the Junction of JacksoD's
command with that of Johnson; and that
| fight opened the celebrated Valley campaign
of 1862, which eliminated at Cross Keys.
General Johnson's career as Confederate
States soldier. in fact, commenced at '1'ave-
ler's Repose,' on Greenbrier river, in Poca-
hontas county, in the summer of 1861, when
he commanded the First Georgia, Colonel
Albert kust the Third Arkaasas, and Colonel
afterwards GencralNVilliam B. Taliaferro
Virginia regiment. Besides these were other
infantry in regiments aud battalions, and
Shocmaker'S battery Of arti!lery-the whole
under the command Of General Henry r.
Jackson (who, and not Stonewail," wrote
the beautiful poem " My Wife and Cbild'').
On the morning of the 4th of Au-
gust, 1861, General Reynolds made IN
attack on us, SO commanded, at
Travellers Repose, and was defeated. 1t
was reported IN camp that while the pickets
were fighting the general in command want
ed to retreat but COlonels johnson, Rust,
and Taliaferro, after conference, sent him
word that he could go, but as for them and
their oops they should fight. think Col
oncl Johnson was the ranking officer, and
hno,c that these gallant colone S. did stand
their ground, and Reynolds was forced back
to his fastness in Cheat mountain. The his
tory of that campaign does not appear in
any of the books hase examined, while it
would make most ipteresting chapter in
the details OF our struggle. Will not Gene
l.,l Ta'iaferro fur1sh tile Dispatch with an
account of that summers doiags? especially
of the cxpeditionao the rear Of Reynolds
and Milroy in Cheat mountain?
But to reSeSR to "Alleghany," If you will
pardon me. Nter the defeat Of Reynolds,
ia bs9pehaps, our forces retired to
Yeagers, on the staunton and Parkersburg
road, some nine miles east of Greenbrier
river. d&d the Thtrty-frst Virginia, Hans
broush'A ind Rogers's tattalions, the First
Georgia, and one battery from Lynchhurg),

evidence that the Congress which passed IL

small crime contrastcd with the conduct of q
Congress which eXulted over its infamy
when In passing the enforcement act 1t hao
provided for the destruction of the last sem
blancc Of rights which the several States Of
the Union had once possessed. We regard
the abolition Of the iranking privilege as
mere trick of this corrupt body to blind the
eyes of the people TO the nature Of the ae'

act was passed in the House of Representa-
lives by only four majority--a House IL
which there were at the time ten times foul

ashamed to vote themselves seven thousand
