ncy of my personal staff, Chaplain Woodbury, of the First Rhode Island regiment, aide-de-camp; Adjutant Merriman, First Rhode Island regiment, A. A. A. G.; and Lieut. Beaumont, United States Cavalry, aidede-camp, who were all active in their assistance on the field. Lieut. Beaumont being in the regular service, I beg to recommend him to the notice of the Commanding-General as a most gallant and deserving young officer. Capt. Curson, Seventy-first New York, division-quartermaster, and Capt. Goodhue, Second New Hampshire, division-commissary, rendered most efficient service in their departments. Capt. Reynolds's battery did such good service in so many parts of the field, that it has a place in several reports, which renders it unnecessary for me to make further mention of it. I have the honor to be, Colonel, Very respectfully, your ob't servant, A. E. Burnside, Colonel Commanding Second Brigade. Report of Col. Porter. Headquarters First brigade, Second Division, Ar

aplain is made by the staff officers and captains of companies, so that I shall have no power to offer it, as from myself. The answer to this letter has not been preserved, but soon after the above was written, orders came from General Andrew to stop all recruiting and the proposed regiment was given up. These items are from the diary dated January 25, 1862: My last drill club disbanded last night, and so ends perhaps my special military training. First club formed under Captain Goodhue April 1 and lasted through April, till he left with Rifle Battalion. Then came our Rifle Club of which I was President, drilled by Wood in Lincoln House Block. This merged in the Old City Guard, so called (May 20), and began at beginning again. . . . We got some escort duty and outdoor drill and learned all the company movements and part of the manual. Read Hardee (vol. 1) slightly, with the actual exercises, and found all far easier than I expected.... No more drill through s
oston, Dr. Samuel Cabot, who had aided largely in sending rifles to Kansas, said once, in speaking of a possible war between the Northern and Southern States, It would not last six months; while, on the other hand, one of the best of the Massachusetts militia officers, who went out as adjutant of General Devens's battalion at the very beginning, and afterwards entered the regular army, said, after the attack on Sumter, I would rather have England and France together upon us than this. Captain Goodhue was right; war with England and France might have led to the capture or burning of a few cities, but the pressure of the civilized world would have soon settled it by diplomacy, at a cost of money and life incomparably less than that of the contest which was now impending. As it was, the material cost of the war was best summed up by Gen. W. T. Sherman, who said, at Portland, Oregon (July 3, 1890), I do believe, as I believe in Him who rules above us all, that this country spent one th

Shipping News. --The bark Miranda, Captain J. W. Simmons, from Rio, reached Hampton Roads on the 3d inst. She has a cargo of coffee consigned to Messrs. Goodhue & Co., New York. Captain Simmons reports over sixty American vessels in port at Rio, and forty- five of other nations. The captains of vessels refused to take cargoes for the United States, fearing capture from the Southern privateers. The exchange on England was 26½ per cent., with a down ward tendency. The West Indian, a large schooner, bound for Baltimore, expected to leave the same night with the Miranda. The Ella Virginia was in port with sails unbent. She is commanded by Captain Barker, 56 Ann street, Baltimore.--The bark Clara Haxall, Capt. Munson, of Richmond, was also in port, and wished to be reported. During the entire voyage of the Miranda, she came across but one war vessel, which was the U. S. ship Preble. The Preble overhanded her, and after an examination of her passes left.

and refined community. Howard, Judson, and several other literary institutions of note are located here. The Judson not unfrequently has within its walls from three to four hundred young ladies, most of whom have an interest in large cotton plantations. As these institutions are under the control of the Baptists of Alabama, that denomination frequently holds its annual meetings here. The State Convention is now in session. Rev. H. Talbird, D. D., has been elected President, and Prof. Goodhue, of the Howard, Clerk. Rev. C. Manley, a popular young man, and son of Dr. Manley, preached the introductory sermon. Rev. A. M. Poindexter, of Richmond, Va., is here as the representative of the Foreign Mission cause. Rev. H. A. M. Henderson, late of Kentucky, is now canvassing this portion of the State, raising a regiment. He is a Methodist clergyman, and was driven from Kentucky because he would not take upon him the Lincoln yoke. It argues well for the Southern Confederacy to
