Gerald Fitzgerald Explaineth military, movements. Jackson, with his whole force, pursued our army to Bunker Hill, where, in consequence of the fatigued condition of his men, and finding that he could not flank or cut us off, he returned to Winchester, first directing Ashby to pursue us with his cavalry and artillery. Gen. Johnston was not at Winchester with Jackson. It is more than probable that he went up the Valley towards Woodstock, to prevent any advance of our Western troops in his rear. The Twenty-second North Carolina regiment, which was nearly annihilated by Donnelly's brigade, near Winchester, had received no clothe or pay since they were mustered into the service. They were almost destitute, and looked much like an organized set of ragamuffins. Captain Sheets, the late guerilla, was killed at
Words of Encouragement. --The tide of war having turned in favor of the Confederacy, the Charleston Courier remarks: The sun burst through the clouds that had for several months hung over the Southern sky in the opening week of April. The first Sunday of that month witnessed a brilliant victory, won by the forces under Johnston and Beauregard, against large odds and in the face of numerous disadvantages. The success our troops met with at Williamsburg was decisive and complete, and though the enemy, as his won't is, boasted of that discomfiture, representing it as a great victory, the truth has reached the ear of the deluded nation, and turned his joy into sorrow, his exultation into mourning. The intrepid and irresistible Jackson, who at Kernstown checked and chastised the foe, though outnumbered ten to one, forced Milroy to retreat, fell upon the enemy at McDowell's, and made him flee in hot haste, leaving rich spoils to the victors, drove him from Front Royal in wild

A great General. In an article re-published by us a few days since, the London Times enumerates our general armies — those of Beauregard, Johnston, and Jackson — and says "if, at any moment, the genius of a great General were developed in any of these commands, the whole fortune of the war, might, no doubt, be yet reversed. But there is no decisive genius on either side Beauregard came near to it, but he was a day too late at Corinth. Buchanan came quite up to it for that one moment he took out the Merrimac, but he was wounded. That power of wielding divisions of troops as a Cyclops wields his hammer, and striking blow after blow with them in stunning succession, has not been revealed to the American Generals." We suggest that the "genius of a great General" has been developed in the leader of one of these commands. There is "a decisive genius" an one side, at least. "The power of wielding divisions of troops, as a Cyclops wield his hammer," "striking blow after blow wi
War Songs of the South, West & Johnston have just issued Dr. Shepardson's book of Songs, inspired by the war and its incidents. They are selected with a judgment and taste highly creditable to the editor. These songs are, many of them, of a high order of poetic genius. All exhibit the fire of patriotism and true Southern spirit.--We had not supposed it possible to make up a book of so many pages--two hundred and sixteen--of poems written during the brief space of the war, so large a portion of which are very fine poetry. The editor has done the public a service in fishing them up from the rapidly flowing stream of oblivion and giving them a more enduring existence in his best volume. He has appropriately graced the title page with the very well expressed and truthful apothegm of Fletcher;--"I said, I knew a very wise man so much of Sir Chr--'s sentiment, that he believed if a man were permitted to make all the ballads, he need not care who should make the laws of a nat
