issouri to Lieut. Donald Mc-Kenzie, Company K. General Bragg then gave the order to drive the enemy into the river, and Chalmers' brigade engaged in its sixth fight of the day, and made a gallant effort, but the enemy were strongly posted, and aided by the fire from the gunboats successfully defended their position until darkness closed the battle of that day. Cheatham's division, on going into action on the right of the line, was confronted by a strong Federal line, against which Captain Smith directed his artillery for an hour, with a result highly creditable to the Mississippi gunners. Breckinridge now came up on the right of Cheatham. The enemy being pressed back, Lieutenant-Colonel Miller, First battalion of cavalry, charged upon the retreating column and captured a number of prisoners and a Michigan battery of six guns. Of Blythe's regiment, Cheatham reported: Blythe's Mississippi advanced to the left and attacked the enemy, and wheeling to the right drove one of the e

which a brother's love erected as a tribute of his grief and reverence. Having been first the color-bearer, then adjutant of his regiment by appointment of Colonel Smith, and at the time of his death a Captain commanding a company under him, and from our entry into the service, personal and intimate friends, I am prepared to syhysical faculties and of the moving passions the same was true of thousands of those who fell in or survived the late war. That is so, but no one who had known Colonel Smith, or had observed him well, could fail to discover that his was a different character and of a more earnest type than was that of most soldiers who were equally knew him best to admire him most. Self-restraint, which has been termed the highest form of self-assertion, is a marked characteristic of the race from which Colonel Smith sprung, and was possessed by him in an eminent degree. He never gave way to moods, and only when the necessities of discipline demanded, would he inflict upon

Lieut. Delaigle, of the Georgia Army, received a dispatch this morning, from Gov. Brown, ordering three hundred and fifty muskets and a quantity of cartridges, to be delivered at the South Carolina railroad depot, to-morrow (Sunday) morning. Four companies of troops are expected to arrive to-morrow morning, on their way to Virginia, and these articles are for their equipment. The same paper further says: The Floyd Rifles, Capt. Thomas Hardeman, and the Macon Volunteers, Capt. R. A. Smith, will arrive here this morning, and leave for Virginia, on an extra train, on the South Carolina road. The Columbus (Ga.) Sun, of the 20th, says Capt. Colquitt received a dispatch last night from Gov. Brown, requesting to know If the Light Guards could start to-night for Norfolk, Virginia. We are informed that the dispatch was answered in the affirmative, and that the company will leave for that destination by the train this afternoon, at 3 o'clock, they having been ready

in it. We call upon our fellow-citizens and friends to subscribe liberally of their next crop, to sustain the credit of our Government and afford the means for moving our army most promptly to victory. If "Cotton is King," let cotton come to the breach. If Georgia has the honor of having offered to the Government the largest number of volunteers of any of the original seven States, and of having the largest number now in the fleld — let the Empire State loan her crops as well as her sons to the Government. Let every Georgian do his duty. Nothing will tend more to discourage our enemies than for the planters of the South to subscribs without delay for the support of those who will fight bravely to defend the soll and slaves, the homes and religion of our native land.--If one-half of the next crop beloaned promptly to the Government, I believe there will be a glorions victory and a speedy peace achieved. Let cotton conquer peace. Very respectfully, yours, R. A. Smith.

esult of the Bethel battle. They have a great variety of modes of accounting for it, and no doubt each journalist could manage it better, if he had the personal direction of the affair. The "inordinate love of life" among the invaders is the most obvious explanation. Gen. Butler is highly complimented by the New York Herald, who styles him "the right man in the right place." About his being "the right man," we have our doubts, but that Fortress Monroe is "the right place" for the man whom Smith. of California, scared out of his boots at the Charleston Convention, there can be question. Some ill-natured newspapers blame Gen. Butler for not proceeding himself in command of the large force that attacked Bethel Church. But the modesty of Butler is equal to his genius.--He knew very well that his presence could do no one else any good, and might be the cause of individual harm to himself. Therefore, he magnanimously gave his brother General from Massachusetts a chance for the luck an
