The armies are concentrating on new and bloody battlefields, and in a short time the clashing of arms will be heard throughout the land, and there will be a carnage with which that of Manassas plains will sink into insignificance when compared to.

Sharpshooters. The enemy have organized in every army a corps of sharpshooters, whose exclusive business it is to shoot our officers. It is believed that Gen. Johnston and our Generals at the late battle in Missouri fell in this way. We should have a similar corps attached to our own army, to shoot the Lincoln Generals whenever they are within the longest range of a musket. Our own Generals, at the same time, should imitate the caution of the Lincoln Generals, and keep out of the way of sharpshooters as much as possible.

The last lingering hope has disappeared, and it is but too true that General Albert Sidney Johnston is no more.
