f our sources of supply, the fatal mistake of our people relying upon the North for the commonest articles of ordinary use coming home upon us now at the most inopportune time. It would be a most delightful coup to catch Abraham Lincoln, Granny Scott, and the whole brood of vipers at one jump; and doubtless many of our soldiers would commit the innocent mistake of putting bullets through the cranium of Sumner, Wilson, Lovejoy, et ideomne genus of non-combatants, who go upon wine frolics to Bull Run. It would be a crushing blow upon the North in European estimation, where the taking of a Nation's Capital is regarded as the most humiliating defeat and abject subjection. But we know that the mere taking of Washington, unless we could catch the vile leaders in one net, would not end the war. They would remove to some other location, and there concoct anew their damnable schemes. An immense army has been congregated in Washington, and there would doubtless be a most desperate resist

ave sought to be hid under the war cry. They will feel the pressure of the changing opinions at the North, already alive to the fact from reliable letters that the army is at this moment more discouraged and disorganized than at any moment since Bull Run; and when Congress meets again it is more than likely a thorough change of policy will take place. In one word, it is felt that the Congress has done nothing and settled nothing. It has given permission, but has not enabled the Government ron was absorbed looking at the comet, when a friend tapped him on the shoulder and asked him how the President's Message appeared to be liked?

The Baltimore correspondent of the New York Day Book relates the following: A lady of this city, of strong Southern feelings, was in Washington at the time of the Bull Run battle.

her earth with the blood of one of her sons; and, worse than all, they have been aided and abetted in their hellish work by men who bear the sacred name of Virginians — aye, of Loudouners. For some days past it has been known that Federal troops were prowling along the opposite banks of the Potomac river, menacing our people by their occasional nocturnal visits to this side; but within the last ten days infuriated, no doubt, by the humiliating recollection of their disgraceful rout at Bull Run, they have crossed over to take revenge, as would seem, on our unprotected border, and are we learn, now quartered in the vicinity of Lovettsville, in numbers estimated at several hundred. On Friday morning last a party crossed at Edward's Ferry, three miles below Leesburg, and burned the old warehouse and the ferry man's house at that point; both were entirely consumed.

The guide of the "Grand Army." --A dispatch from Weldon, North Carolina, August 5, announces the arrival there of Captain John E. Bacon, having in charge the traitor Bowman, who guided the grand army to Bull Run on the 21st. The guide, it appears, could not keep up with the grand army on the way back to Washington.

the last sound that greeted the ears of the brave, dying man, was the tramp of the retreating foe. Truly, Capt. Radford died a hero, as did, at the same time, his companion in arms, the lamented Irvine. Shortly afterward, and but a few hundred yards further down the road, a second charge was made, which resulted, without the loss of a man of this regiment, in the capture of 60 prisoners, 14 pieces of artillery, 30 wagons and ambulances, a large number of horses, besides various other articles of value belonging to the enemy. At this point 42 invaders were killed, and a large number wounded. From this it maybe seen why it is the Northern press attribute their great loss of artillery and other Federal property to the Confederate cavalry, in their retreat from Bull Run. And it is no disparagement to other regiments and companies, who did their duty nobly, to say that the 30th Regiment, Mounted Rangers, under their daring and fearless commander, Colonel Radford, did their whole duty.
