The Richmond Dispatch has heard that, in Wayne county, Va., when it was proposed to draft the militia, they instantly, to a man, volunteered for the war. This unexpected response was so unusual that contentions resulted upon the question of remaining at home, and those upon whom this lot fell were loud in their expressions of disappointment. N. Y. Herald, January 29.
A soldier, writing of the appearance of the field after the battle of Cliff Creek, says: What is most remarkable is the fact which I noticed, that three fourths of all I saw were shot through the head, and none lower than the breast — showing most conclusively that the Tenth Indiana and the Second Minnesota, who did the hardest of the fighting, were determined that they would shoot to kill, and not to wound. Cincinnati Gazette, January 29
The London papers of the twenty-ninth of January published the following monster hoax, under the heading Rumored Confederate victory at Port Royal : The Asia has brought intelligence from New-York of a battle having been fought on the twelfth of January on the main land, in the vicinity of Port Royal, between Gen. Lee's forces and the Federal troops, resulting in the total defeat of the latter, with a loss of one thousand seven hundred killed and wounded. The Washington Government, we are informed, had taken steps to suppress the news of this reverse, which, nevertheless, has reached a highly respectable party in Liverpool, through a private channel.
Buchanan and Scott.--The Richmond Dispatch says: A bill has been reported in the Virginia Senate to change the names of the counties of Buchanan and Scott. It is quite proper to wipe out from the map of Virginia everything that serves to perpetuate the name of an enemy or a traitor, and the proposition will doubtless meet the unanimous approval of the people. The bill alluded to does not suggest the names to be substituted, though Cary and Carrington, well known in the history of Virginia, have been under consideration. Cincinnati Gazette, January 29.
