It will put a powerful friend at the back of the true-hearted Southron, and give them encouragement and courage to battle for the right. The march of Zollicoffer is likewise attended with the happiest results. Large accessions to his forces have taken place in Pulaski county, especially in the neighborhood of Somerset, near which the General is now encamping. The advance troops of the army of the enemy, intended to operate against Bowling Green, are on the North-side of Green River, confronting our advance, and no new movements are reported from that quarter. Upon a careful analysis of the campaign "on the dark and bloody ground," we have no occasion to despond Buckner, Breckinridge, Crittenden, and Marshall are names whose very pronunciation thrills thousands; and with the powerful assistance of t

The news from Kentucky is highly encouraging. I had the good fortune to meet with a middle-aged citizen, of Bourbon, who has left his friends and home, rather than take the oath of allegiance to the monkey dynasty in Washington; and he assures me that great numbers will join the ranks of Marshall as he advances to West Liberty, Mount Sterling, and Paris.

c. [correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.] Abingdon, Dec. 15, 1861. The 56th Virginia has just obtained permission of Wyndham Robertson, Esq. of Richmond city, to encamp upon his beautiful farm, situated one and a half miles from Abingdon. This arrangement has been concluded by Lieut. Col. Slaughter, in the absence of Col. Stuart, who is now sick in your city, and has secured an agreeable substitute for the "airy" encampment of the regiment on the heights of Martha Washington Coantic, an enlightened wisdom has opposed means of equally formidable resistance, and when the great battle transpires we have every reason to expect customary victory to alight on our standard. A detachment of Albemarle cavalry, under Col. Clarkson, have been in Abingdon for several days. The burning of Charleston, which brought half of the noble city to dust, is the chief theme of conversation, and all unite in the expression of sincere sorrow at the mournful calamity. Occasional.

Send all the negroes out of the country — leave additional room for white men. We had a glimpse of this identical cat three or four years ago, in this manner; A church, not fifty miles from Alexandria, was without a Rector, and it was deemed expedient to get a student from the Seminary to come on alternate Sundays, and read the service. A friend recommended a young gentleman from St. George's, N. Y.--a protege of Dr. Tyng. He came, and won all hearts by his zeal, fresh from the Union prayer meetings. He ignored the slavery question altogether, till his last visit, just before his ordination and departure for the North, when parting gifts had been presented, &c.

ed in the building a long time, and when they emerged from it one of them approached a window, with gun uplifted, as if to shatter it, with the butt of his musket or rifle before the blow took effect she heard an explosion and saw him fall; in about an hour she saw the other two digging a grave; on coming near them, she inquired what they were doing. They answered that they were digging a grave for one of their companions, who had been accidentally shot by his own gun. As in the case of Sir John Moore, at Corunna, No useless coffin confined his breast, Nor in sheet, nor in shroud, they bound him! Now, it is reasonable to conclude that these were the men who broke down the rails of the chancel, drew obscene figures, and wrote sacrilegiously on the walls. We wondered that the "Grand Army," who came to teach us religion at the canon's mouth, should have left such a monument of their own heathenism standing. This awful and timely retribution explains it all, and cries wi

He exclaimed, with vehemence, "No, no I'll not enter into a Bible argument with you Let the negroes go to Africa, where they came from, and let white men come down South and cultivate these rich lands" From that moment we knew that all this profound feeling for the poor negro was nothing more nor less than a cloak for self-interest; and now we have it from headquarters. "All the world, and the rest of mankind" must be in the condition of those described in the old adage, "None so blind as those who will not see," if they do not perceive it.
