ommanding general rewarded it with a special order of approbation. Steuart and the Marylanders enjoyed the unique distinction of being probably the only command that was ever decorated by a special order for disobedience of orders. General Johnston had sent them on this detail with distinct and positive orders to burn everything burnable. They brought off a trainload of most valuable plunder, and the commanding general honored them thus: Special order. Headquarters, Winchester, June 22, 1861. The commanding general thanks Lieutenant-Colonel Steuart and the Maryland regiment for the faithful and exact manner in which they carried out his orders of the 19th instant at Harper's Ferry. He is glad to learn that owing to their discipline, no private property was injured, and no unoffending citizen disturbed. The soldierly qualities of the Maryland regiment will not be forgotten in the day of action. By order of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. The Confederate strategy in the e
Virginia State Convention.Ninth day--[Second session.] Richmond, June 22d, 1861. At 10 o'clock, the Convention was called to order by Mr. Southall, and prayer was offered by Rev. Mr. Spurlock. The usual routine of reports was gone through with — no reports were submitted. Mr. Southall suggested that the regular business, suspended by reason of the election of members to the Southern Congress, yesterday, came up now as a privileged question. It related to improvements in turnpikes for military purposes. The ordinance was amended so as to increase the appropriation, and on its passage the ayes and noes were called, resulting ayes 55, noes 24--carried. The connections between the Richmond. Potomac and Petersburg Railroads came up as the regular order of the day. It was moved that the consideration be postponed to 12 o'clock to-day. Amended so to lay on the table. The amendment was lost, and the postponement to 12 o'clock was carried. Mr. Staples of
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from Pig's Point. Pig's Point, Camp Jackson, June 22d, 1861. We have noticed little activity among the ships at Newport News, which confirms us in the conclusion that most of the troops, or a large number at least, have been removed to Hampton. Nobody here fears Picayune Butler, feeling confident that some mistake or blunder will be committed under his command; but I would caution our men not to be too hopeful of success or negligent in their vigilance. Let us be watchful of our liberties and active in maintaining our guard against the enemy. The courage of the Northern people should not be underrated, while we should meet them as we would meet the bravest enemy on the earth. We have a valiant, though a degenerate and demoralized foe to contend with. But arouse, patriots of Virginia, to the rescue; liberty in the hands of a tyrant is death to a freeman. Your homes and firesides are invaded; the sacred altars where your father
From Camp Pickens.[special Correspondence of the Dispatch.] Camp Pickens, June 22, 1861. On Thursday evening the detachment of the 1st Regiment stationed at Fairfax Court-House, with the Warrenton and Prince William, Rifles, received orders to march to this place, which I must say did not please our boys very well; for having been sent forward, they did not like the idea of going backward when the enemy was almost within sight. There was, however, no other alternative as good soldiers but to obey. Accordingly, on Friday morning, after an early breakfast, we packed up our duds for a tramp; one which we somewhat dreaded too, for it bid fair to be a day, even as early as this, (5 o'clock A. M.,) to be what is generally known as a scorcher, which it proved to be before night, coupled with the rumor that we were to foot it by the way of Centreville to this post under a burning sun, somewhat calculated to fill us with dread. Soon, however, wagons came and took our baggage and dr
Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.from Wilmington, N. C. Wilmington, N. C., June 22, 1861. One hundred and twenty five additional persons passed through here yesterday, direct from Harper's Ferry, en route for Fayetteville. They will commence turning out arms, I understand, in a week or two. These arms, as I am informed, are for the use of the State. A fire occurred last night in the vicinity of the city, consuming a dwelling belonging to Capt. R. S. Macomber. Worrill.
