rown in their way. Since giving my address a few days since a great many letters have been sent in to me upon various subjects, and I will endeavor to attend to them as soon as possible. Perhaps I may be pardoned a word to some in this letter. "Sigma" asks me to correct a serious fault in the quartermaster's department. I can only call attention to the matter, and will do so at an early date. C.P.C., your letter has been forwarded. Miss M.--The battery you speak of will winter upon Bull Run, near Blackburn's ford. W.T.--My own opinion is that it would be useless for you to come. The First Virginia regiment is still at its old camping ground. Thus far no preparations for winter quarters have been made, and beyond a few speculations as to the possibility of getting to Richmond, very little is said upon the subject. Gen. Ewell's brigade will winter in the advance, and I believe the First will take up its quarters as near the enemy as any regiment. With good, warm log hou

e Commander of the Federal forces. Officers and Soldiers of the Department of Western Virginia: You have closed an arduous campaign with honor to yourselves and satisfaction to the country. None but these who have been with you, as I have, can fully appreciate your trials and privations. Your triumph has been three-fold — over your own inexperience, the obstacles of nature, and the rebel forces. When our gallant young Commander was called from us, after the disaster of Bull Run, this department was left with less than fifteen thousand men to guard three hundred miles of railroad and three hundred miles of frontier, exposed to "bushwhackers" and the forces of Gens Floyd, Wise, and Jackson. The Northwestern pass into it was fortified and held, Cheat Mountain secured, the rebel assaults there victoriously repelled, and the Kanawha Valley occupied. A march of one hundred and twelve miles over bad roads brought you upon Floyd's entrenched position, whence the reb

as to what they really are by their conduct in the Mason and Slidell affair. European nations having nothing to judge from but their own lying newspapers, have hitherto believed them a powerful nation, and us a handful of insignificant rebels. They have been taught to believe that the Yankee Government was the best in the world, and that the large majority in the Southern States were eager to return to its bosom, but could not, because prevented by a few factious individuals. The Mason and Slidell affair has taught them what the Yankee Government really is — that it is the basest pretence of a Government that was ever inflicted upon a people. Bethel, Bull Run, Manassas, Lexington, Leesburg, Carnifax, Belmont, Alleghany, have proved to them that the Confederate States are not a mere handful of factious citizens, but a great and powerful nation, with a mighty army in the field, and ample resources to sustain it. Assuredly the "rebellion" is not likely to be crushed out in our time.
