The Suffolk post-ofice was entered by

broken up with hammers and other tools
which were stolen from the Suffolk Iron

The cabins Of two schooners lying at the

have been arrested and held for eXamina-

And can myself add that In over one
hundred battles and sharp encounters I
never knew that glorious old First" to
either fail In the time OF trial or 10 once
falter under fire.
As a result OF this good name and
character, the First North Carolina Ca
valry became a sort OF guide for all tho
other mounted troops from this State,
and IN an inspectors official report II
was pointed to as n pattern for Others"
And, In addition. we were likewise spe-
clal favorites with the farmers Of the

AS an illustration of this kind feeling
towards US, my Virginia comrades will
,ar,lon a little incident strictly true.
though somewhat at their expense. But
first. TO realize the extremities to which
the Confederate horsemen were often
driven. | must refer to a fact not gen.
orally known or properly understood.
OF all great armies. ours was alone, SO
far as / know. In requiring the trooper
TO furnish his own mount this, too, not
only at the risk Of loss OF property. bur
Of being reduced from his proud position
and put into the infantry. This subjected
the enterprisng cayalryman to sore
temptations. and when. towards the
close OF the war. ratons and forage
af,-,,o md.
were known as ''foragers, rather than
fighters" II was once my luck to follow
on the picket-lines one OF these "improvi-
dent hut always enterprising troops"
A Mr.. Cunningham came TO my camp and
said: Colonel Barrlnger. my family and
myself are glad you are here: you can
have all the corn We can spare; but
lust tell YOU. those last fellows out here
nearly ruined me. They not only took
all the corn they needed without the ask
ing. but at last they turned the animals
loose in the field TO tramplc II under
foot. | am told there Is 10 way 70 stop
IL. That regiment never knew such q
thing as discipline. They say they are
good fighters. | mean 10 try them. If
they come back here again and repeat
such conduct | shall try my gun on the
crowd" | tried to reason against the
risk and madness Of such a course, but
to no use: he vowed his purpose to shoot.
On my return to the lines some weeks
later he was again prompt to call. but"
SAWS he Colonel, | did not shoot; and l
must tell you why. Just as | got good
range on the crowd, in the dark. but
with only brd-shot, you know, took
aim and started 10 draw the trigger,
when. for the first time. the idea struck
me that had two sons IN another Nir-
GINA regiment. and possibly they might
be in some one elses corn-feld at that
very moment. And | tell you, Colonel,
the old gun just fell from my hands. and
! went right up and told the fellows the
joke, and gave them leave 10 take all
they wanted"
| repeat. God bless the whole-souled, the
ever true. and chivalrous people Of Nir-
GINA. They wear an hon0rcd name. and
they well deserve 1t.

To the Editor OF the Dispatch:
| regret that cannot be present at the

yelled this Is the one that appeals most
strongly to our hearts. for those men had
no glory 10 achieve. no names to be en-
bazoned on history's page, but were in
deed fighting for home and country. with
out reward or hope OF reward beyond
consciousness of duty. Our great and
loved leaders deserve monuments, ana 10

vate soldier and sailor deserves one even
more than they. All honor 10 Richmond
