History Collntetf.

In the May number Of The Century,
p. l07. General Joseph Z. Johnston
says. in regard to the conduct OF the
army (Confederate) after the battle Of
Manassas, President Davis wrote to
him /: II call upon You to say whether
| obstructed the pursuit of the enemy
after the victory at Manassas, or have
ever objected to an advance, or any
other active operation which 1t was
possible for the army to undertake"
| replied on the 10th, answering his
first question in the negative, and added
an explanation which put the response
bility on myself. This explanation,
| suppose, is given on page log: Mr..
Davis seems to have forgotten what was
as well known then as now--that our
army was more disorganized by victory
than that of the United States by de-
feat {; that there were strong fortitica-
tons, well manned. to cover the ap-
proaches to Washington and prevent the
establishment Of our guns on the south
bank Of the river. He knew, too, that
we had no means Of cannonading the
capital, nor disposition to make bar
barous war"
In Cookies Life Of General I. j.
Jackson, page IS: "For three days
Jackson waited impatiently for the or
der to advance upon Washington. We
have have heard his exclamation on the
field Of battle that with ten thousand
men he could enter the Federal capital
that night. And to the future. when
all the facts shall be published, we
must leave the decision of the question
whether he erred. What seems plain
is that Washington at that moment was
almost undefended. the Federal army
routed. and the way open. Jackson
thought the movement perfectly prac-
ticable, and said more than once, with
some impotence, ! have three days
rations cooked, ready to advance. Why
don't the order come: -"
The actual condition of affairs at
Washington as detailed by William
Howard Russell in his MY Diary,
North and South" Sustains the almost
miraculous military genius Of Jackson.
He says on page 1920: There is
no provost guard. no patrol, no autho-
Ii;y visible in the tents. General
Scott is quite overwhelmed with the ai-
fair. and is unable to stir. General
Mcdowell has not yet arrived. The
Secretary Of War knows not what to do.
Mr.. Lincoln is equally helpless, and Mr..
Seward, who retains some calmness, is,
Notwithstanding rank and military cX-
pcriencc, without resource or eX-
pedient. There are good many
troops hanging on about the camps
and posts on the other side of the
river, it is said but they are thorough
" disorganized and will run away il
the enemy comes in sight without a
shot, and then the capital must fall at
once. Why Beauregard does not come

noon to hear his cannon. Here is a
golden opportunity. If the Confede
rates do not grasp that which will never
come again on such terms, it stamp:
them with mediocrity."

RALEIGH, n. c., May Gothic cy-
clone which day before yestc day passed

Union counties has been heard from in
Richmond county. On the farm Of
William Parsons, near Rockingham,
five houses were blown down, many
trees entirely swept away, and a path
100 yards wide cleared through the
timber. The cyclone passed within
two miles Of Bostick's mills, in Rich

barn of W. X. Covington. 1t blew a
heavy piece of timber through the wall
of Covington'S house, the beam enter

from that section, but it is probable
that the storm has done far more dam

After the Terry LyDcbcrs.

LYNCHBuRG, Va, May 30.-A
reward of $1,000, offered by the
State for the discovery of the
lynchers of IIairston Terry, who was
hanged by a mob at Liberty, Bedford
county, on May 18th, has stimu-
lated a number of detectives to attempt
to ferret them out.
All persons who were not known in
the neighborhoOd were notified that the
detectives would not be tolerated, and
one officer who refused to take the hint
was tied UP and severely whipped. Not
withstanding the precautions taken to
guard against the discovery, a detec-
tive who arrived from Liberty to-day
claims to have list of the ringleaders.
The report creates much excitement, as
it is believed by many that some of the
best citizens of Bedford county were in
the mob. Terry's friends are deter
mined on a thorough investigation of
the matter.
