Gen. Beauregard. Gen. Peter D. Beauregard, of Louisiana, who has been appointed the commander of the troops in and near Charleston harbor, is the man who will have the duty of capturing Major Anderson and his command. General Beauregard won his military reputation in Mexico, where he was a captain. He was also at West Point, and is considered a good engineer. The Charleston Mercury, in a sketch of his career, says: The histories of the Mexican War, favorably as they have mentioneence of a number of general officers, alluded to Lieutenant Beauregard's opinion at the Council, and the consequences which had followed from it. The position now so promptly assigned to Gen. Beauregard is a just tribute to his worth. It is a great satisfaction to our people that the enemy can bring no talent against us which we cannot match with its equal in our Southern land; and amongst all the bright galaxy, no one could be more acceptable than our native-born Louisiana Beauregard.
