The Richmond correspondent of the Charleston Courier, of the 15th, has the following paragraph:--The filibusteros who filled the world with so much angry declamation a few years ago, are figuring prominently in the Southern armies at the present time. The tall and martial Henningsen left to-day for the West, to assume the colonelcy of the Third regiment in Wise's brigade. Frank Anderson will be his lieutenant-colonel. Colonel Charles Carroll Hicks is a lieutenant in a company of Colonel McLaw's regiment, now at Yorktown. General Bob Wheat greatly distinguished himself as commander of a New Orleans military corps at Manassas. Major O'Hara, of Cuban fame, has a commission in the army. Colonel Rudler, I see, is raising a company for the war in Georgia. An English filibuster, one Major Atkins, a tall, big-whiskered, loose-trowsered, haw-haw specimen of a Londoner, who was with Garibaldi in Sicily, and who is just over, fought gallantly by the side of Wheat, at Manassas.
in her poverty and degradation, needs the property and money she has stolen from me, (and, divided in sentiment, bankrupt in credit and reputation, God knows she does,) why, take it all ; use it as best you may — raffle, huckster, and auctioneer it off to the highest bidder, but don't add to the turpitude of the robbery the meanness of deceit land falsehood. My boy would not, if lie could, touch a farthing of the plunder. And your Excellency well knows lie could not if he would. I have no doubt, before this, the packages have been broken open, and the contents seized upon by the hungry and needy subjects of the Old Dominion. Proud old State! glorious in tradition and history, how has she fallen! Gov. Wise said the people at Harper's Ferry behaved like sheep when attacked by old John Brown, and the larceny of my goods by the F. Fs. of Norfolk proves that the deterioration is not local. Very respectfully, your Excellency's obed't serv't, J. O. Bradford. Paymaster U. S. Navy.

O'er this fair land, wide and free. II. “Union and Freedom!” our war-cry is rolling, Now over the prairie, now wide o'er the billow, Hark! 'tis the battle, and soon will be tolling The knell of the soldier, who rests 'neath the willow. chorus.--Star-Spangled Banner, &c. III. Banner triumphant! though grand is thy story, We'll stamp on thy folds in this struggle to-day, Deeds of our armies, transcending in glory, The bravest yet chanted in poesy's lay. chorus--Star-Spangled Banner, &c. IV. Wise were our fathers, and brave in the battle, But treason uprises their Union to sever, Rouse for the fight! shout loud 'mid war's rattle, The Union must triumph, must triumph forever! chorus.--Star-Spangled Banner, &c. V. Trumpet, and ensign, and drum-beat are calling, From hill-side and valley, from mountain and river, “Forward the flag!” e'en though heroes are falling, Our God will His own chosen standard deliver. chorus. Star-Spangled Banner! our hopes to thee are clinging, Lead us to vi
y barbarities and atrocities disgraceful to civilization; he can, he must, he shall be expelled! If a nation may be born in a day, an army should be raised in an hour. I am sent forward in advance of the brave, chivalrous, and indomitable Gen. Henry A. Wise, to urge you to fly to arms without a moment's delay. Gather every thing in the shape of arms that may be converted into them, and paste the name of the person from whom they are taken upon them, that they may be valued. Bring all the powunton to Charleston, Kanawha County, and await the arrival of your General, who will be on in a few days to muster you into service. Be brave, and fear not! The God that made the mountains is God of the lion-hearted and brave! The land of Washington, Henry, Jefferson, and Madison, is sacred — it must not, it shall not be desecrated! By all the memories of the past, and all hopes of the future, I beg you to rally at once. By order of General Wise. Evermont Ward. --Boston Journal, Aug. 6
class us with the vilest robbers and outlaws. The liberty has been taken, unwarrantably, unlawfully, and in violation of the statute for the protection of private character, to place in the aforesaid collection or Gallery, the likenesses of a gang of banditti of a class infinitely lower and more base than any in which your memorialists have ever, by choice or misfortune, associated. The portraits of Jefferson Davis, Howell Cobb, Isaac Toucey, Gen. Beauregard, R. H. Lee, John B. Floyd, Henry A. Wise, Lawrence M. Keitt, Judah P. Benjamin, David L. Yulee, and others of the same school, have been arranged with ours, as though we were deep-dyed as they. While protesting against this wholesale defamation of character, we remonstrate that we have at the most only sought to live by our wits, while this school of banditti, the villains aforesaid, have conspired to ruin a mighty people, and to steal the wealth of an entire republic — to beggar and enslave a continent.
