ademy in 1828, in the class of Jefferson Davis, and was in the service as second lieutenant of Sixth infantry until his resignation in 1836. Subsequently he was occupied as a civil engineer at Charleston, Louisville and Cincinnati for two years, then becoming a planter in St. Luke's parish. He served as captain of South Carolina militia five years, was a member of the board of ordnance of the State, a State senator 1853-61, and president of the Charleston & Savannah railroad 1853-56. September 25, 1861, he was commissioned brigadier-general, provisional army of the Confederate States, and was assigned to the command of the Third military district of the State. He was in command of the Confederate forces during the bombardment and capture of Forts Walker and Beauregard, at Port Royal entrance, in November, 1861, on which occasion his brother, Capt. Percival Drayton, commanded the steamer Pocahontas, one of the Federal vessels under Admiral DuPont. He was in charge of the Fifth milit

rontier duty, was in the Utah expedition of 1858, and also engaged in escorting Mormons to California and in protecting emigrants. In 1851 he was commissioned captain of infantry, the rank he held when the great civil war began. Upon the secession of Georgia, Captain McLaws resigned and offered his services to his State. He was gladly accepted and immediately appointed major, C. S. A., May 10, 1861. On June 17, 1861, he was commissioned colonel of the Tenth Georgia regiment, and on September 25, 1861, was promoted to brigadier-general. His bravery and excellent ability in the discipline and leadership of soldiers soon won the esteem of his superior officers. This was especially noticeable at Lee's mill, on, the retreat from Yorktown to Richmond and at the battle of Williamsburg. Accordingly, on May 22, 1862, he was promoted to major-general in the provisional army of the Confederate States. He proved that the honor conferred upon him was well deserved by the manner in which he

Our Correspondence.from Norfolk.the fleet off Old Point — the Amateur performances — War Matters--Peace of the City, &c. Norfolk, Sept. 25, 1861. There is a powerful Federal fleet at Old Point, consisting principally of four large ships of war. The destination of this imposing armada is of course unknown here.--An expedition will probably start shortly or an attack on some point on the Southern coast. It is supposed by some persons that the fleet will proceed to Brunswick, Ga., (a ine harbor;) others say, Charleston or New Orleans; while a few think we shall soon have "particular thunder and lightning" in Hampton Roads and farther up Norfolk harbor. Wool and his Butler may intend to attempt the hazardous work of fighting their way up to Norfolk and the Navy-Yard; but many doubt that such an effort will be made before the completion of the gun-boats, of which so much has been said. Notwithstanding the densely crowded audience at the Opera House, recently mentioned, th
From the West. The Right Man in the Right Place — The Battle of Gauley-- Gen. Floyd's Bravery — His Manners and Habits. Meadow Bluff, Sept. 25, 1861. We presume any information concerning Gen. Floyd and his command in the Northwest will be interesting to the readers of the Dispatch. Now is the time to furnish material for the future historian. While every true patriot is bound to do his best, during the present difficulties, in fighting for the independence of his beloved country, still he is no less responsible to coming generations for the record of facts relating to the bravery of our soldiery and the skill of our leaders. Every movement that Gen. Floyd has made from the time he left Lewisburg on his way to Ganley, to the present time, is worthy of the highest commendation. He has not made a single mistake in his campaign thus far.--His march to the Gauley river, driving the enemy before him — his crossing the river in front of the enemy, under many disadvantages<

ospital nurse was going through his usual routine of business in the hospital, when a stranger entered and asked for whiskey. On being told by the nurse there was none there, he began cursing him, when the nurse asked him to be silent as he was disturbing the sick. Whereupon he stepped out of the hospital and awaited at the door swearing that he intended to thrash the nurse as soon as he came out. After a few moments the nurse came out and he challenged him to a fight. The nurse replied that he did not wish to have anything to do with him, when the stranger struck him a powerful blow in the breast, knocking him against the house, and the nurse, recovering himself, cut at him with a pocket-knife, and unfortunately and unintentionally killed him. The nurse was arrested, but discharged without the examination of a witness. The unfortunate young man who was killed proved to be a Mississippian, and was evidently out of his right mind at the time. A. B. V. Manassas, Sept. 25, 1861
