Immediately after dress parade, on February 1st, 1865, a meeting was organized in the Thirty-first Virginia regiment by calling Captain N. Glærson to the chair, and appointing Dr. S.

The News. Death of General Pegram, of Richmond.--the fighting South of Petersburg--General Lee's report. Grant's movement southwest of Petersburg turns out the creek retired to it, and were reported to be recrossing. "This morning, Pegram's division moved down the right bank of the creek to reconnoitre, when it has vigorously attacked. The battle was obstinately infested several hours, but General Pegram being killed while bravely encouraging his men, and colonel Hoffman wounded its original position. Evans's division, ordered by General Gordon to support Pegram's, charged the enemy and forced him back, but was, in turn, compelled to retirey the expectation that the most serious fighting had yet to come. Brigadier-General Pegram, who fell to nobly at the head of his men on Monday, was from Richmondwas a man of the most unflinching gallantry and a high order of intellect. General Pegram had been married not two weeks at the time of his untimely death. Amon

one present, and we started out on an expedition, from which some will never return. The movement was necessary to counteract one of the enemy towards Weldon. It is stated that two corps of the enemy had started on such an expedition. This I think very probable from the movements of our troops; yet I have no certain information to that effect. About 4 o'clock yesterday evening, a part of A. P. Hill's corps and General Gordon's command — composed of his division and that of General Pegram--sallied from our works at a point about two miles below Burgess's mill, towards Petersburg, and advanced rapidly towards the enemy's works. About sunset, Cook's and McRae's brigades of North Carolina troops opened the attack upon their fortifications. The works proved to be well occupied by the enemy. Prisoners captured state that they had been out, changing and straightening the picket line and building posts of protection for their skirmishers, and were about to start back to camp

n picket opposite the point at which, on Sunday, our picket line was captured. This brigade acted nobly; and although the enemy advanced in force upon their picket line with two whole corps, they held their ground until reinforced by Evans's and Pegram's divisions, of Gordon's corps, who marched from camp, a distance of near four miles, after the advance of the enemy was known. The contest for some time was varying. The enemy occupied temporary breastworks parallel with Moccasin creek; but wh with our commissioners; and we feel that soon the poison will be entirely counteracted and the army will be far more determined than ever. We lost but very few men in the whole engagement, yet some of our best officers have fallen. General Pegram is no more. Colonel Houston, of the Stonewall brigade, was killed. Captain Barton, inspector of Terry's brigade, was wounded in the leg. Captain Skinner, Forty-eighth Virginia regiment, severely. Lieutenant Dart, of the Thirty-first Georgi

We trust that the appeal of Major Pegram and Major Turner for persons of color, free and slave, who are willing to volunteer under the recent acts of Congress and the Virginia Legislature, will meet a prompt and cordial response. Let the people of Virginia come up to the crisis like men. Those who have given their own sons and brothers cannot hesitate to give their servants also to the glorious cause. We say, with our gallant officers: "Let every man in the State consider himself as a recruiting officer, and enter at once upon the duty of aiding in the organization of this force by sending forward recruits to our rendezvous." We learn, with pleasure, that quite an enthusiasm has been kindled among the negroes themselves here, and that they are eager to aid in the deliverance of the country. We are not surprised at it, for of all who must suffer from Yankee subjugation they would be the most hopeless of the miserable. It is, in realty, their extermination that is the inevitab
