From Northern Virginia--the Yankee Army on the note — a Battle Imminent. Orange C. H., May 4. --A body of the enemy's cavalry crossed at Ely's and Germanna fords last night, and were reported this morning moving on Chancellorsville and Fredericksburg. The whole Yankee army is moving from Culpeper C.

Ample preparations are going on to meet the enemy, and the weak can hardly close without a desperate general engagement. Our troops are eager and confident.

Always the same. The Yankee device of representing the South as the aggressors in this war, and themselves as a peaceful and loyal people, simply engaged in maintaining the laws, is an ancient and stereotyped trick of tyrants in general, and of Puritans in particular.--The distinguished naval author and officer. Captain Marryatt, in his "Diary in America, " published in 1889, comments with deserved severity on the disgusting cant of the Pilgrim Fathers, as illustrated in their conduct to the Indians when they thirsted for their territory. After the death, or rather murder, of Alexander, the brother of the celebrated Philip, the latter prepared for war. "And now," says the reverend historian of the times, "war was begun by a fierce nation of Indians upon an honest, harmless generation of English, who might very truly have said to the aggressors, as it was said of old to the Ammonites, "I have not sinned against thee; but thou doest me wrong to war against me."

When the war was brought to a close by the death of the aggressor, the noble and high spirited Philip, and his head had been carried in triumph on a pike by this "honest, harmless people," his helpless, innocent child of nine years old was captured, and there was actually a council held to put this poor child to death! And the Puritan clergy quoted Scripture that the child must die! Dr. Iverson Mather, one of their most famous saints, united with the other clergy in recommending that it be murdered. The pious souls consented at last to sending it, with many others, to the Bermudas, to be sold as a slave! "Stern virtues" of the Pilgrim Fathers!
