nced of that fact, they are endeavoring to console themselves by the idea that he is not in Virginia.--As late as June 10, the New York Times had the following news, which, the Charleston Courier remarks, will be amusing to all who know Gen. Beauregard and his masterly powers of reserve and silence: "Beauregard heard from. "Washington, Sunday, June 9.-- I have heard from a gentleman, whose reliability is beyond a question, that, on Wednesday last, Gen. Beauregard was at Charleston, S. C.--There he was seen and conversed with by my informant, who, though a resident of that city, and a Union man at heart, is compelled by force of public opinion to lend countenance and material aid to the rebel movement. "Gen. Beauregard was well, in fine spirits, and confident of the result of this trouble being victory for the Confederacy. 'It is folly,' said he, 'for us to scatter our forces — part here, part at Richmond, part at Pensacola, and elsewhere. We should, and I am determined
nty-five sent you in the last week. Add to this the number previously sent to this office, and it makes the daily circulation of your very able and deservedly popular paper more than double that of any other daily journal received here. Virginia papers are now sought after and read with great avidity and interest by our people. Notwithstanding the laggardness of the Old Dominion in assuming her true position in the great movement for Southern independence, and her unmerited censure of South Carolina and the other Gulf States for their superior sagacity and wisdom in the premises, yet she has a warm place in our affections, and every true Southern heart throbs responsive to her call for help to expel from her borders the ruthless invaders of her sacred soil. In addition to the three companies that have already repaired, with burnished guns, glistening bayonets, and Cherokee knives of fearful dimensions, to the scene of war in the Old Commonwealth, two other volunteer companies h
elieved. Nor do they grow weary in well doing, although this labor of love grown daily on their hands. But it is perfectly obvious that the work of charity may be expected soon to assume proportions by which their strength will be utterly overwhelmed. While Culpeper has furnished her due share of volunteers for the war, it is not fair to respect this one neighborhood of the county to be burthened with the whole care of the sick of a great army, drawn from a large part of Virginia, South Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. It seems to me as much as we can ask of them to bestow time and labor for the relief of those whom Providence thus throws upon their Christian charities, while the people of all the region from which these troops come should take upon themselves, as a privilege, the providing of all the materials needed for their benevolent ministry. I therefore take this method, unsolicited by the people of the place, to suggest to the charitable, and especially t
o soon. She has not been the aggressor, but has suffered much and long from the greedy, commercial, altogether British commercial, and industrial system forced upon her by the North. Her cause is a just cause; her institutions are safe, and sound, and beneficent; and I am happy to say that the Irish citizens of the Southern States are standing loyally with their adopted country. The Irish companies of South Carolina militia have distinguished themselves by their zeal in volunteering upon any service.--In the regular army of South Carolina, a very near relative of your correspondent has the honor to hold a commission as an officer of artillery. Another very near relative belongs to the First Regiment of Virginia Volunteers, and may be at this moment in Washington, or thereabouts. There is no better cause — no more honorable service; and I think it highly desirable that young Irishmen should learn the art of war somewhere, seeing it is a transportable offence to learn it at home.
Charleston Courier of Col. Daniel Harvey Hill, Commander of the 1st Regiment North Carolina Volunteers, who so greatly distinguished himself at the battle of Bethel Church, we learn that that accomplished soldier and gentleman is a native of South Carolina, and a graduate of West Point. He entered the United States Military Academy from South Carolina in 1838, and was appointed a Lieutenant in the 1st Regiment United States Artillery in 1842, and in the 4th Artillery in 1845--was made a 1st LiSouth Carolina in 1838, and was appointed a Lieutenant in the 1st Regiment United States Artillery in 1842, and in the 4th Artillery in 1845--was made a 1st Lieutenant in 1847, and commanded his company in the battles of Contreras and Churubusco, for which service he was made a Captain by brevet — was with the stormers, and made a brevet Major for gallantry and meritorious conduct in storming Chepultepee. He resigned from the Army in 1849, and was presented with a sword by his native State. Just before the present war began, he filled the office of Superintendent of the North Carolina Military Institute at Charlotte. Our readers doubtless remember
ather, mother, husband, wife, brother, sister; there, perhape, thou hast treasured up thy little ones, flesh of thy flesh, bone of thy bone — tell me, has not South Carolina holy ground for you ? Is it not a sacred duty to defend that soil ? "This State, with its free institutions, has received us. It has called no one of us,ty, when I see before me such a heart-rejoicing reality ? Almost a full regiment of my beloved countrymen, who have already hazarded their lives in defence of South Carolina's soil. Amongst them that veteran company, whose banner floated in the first strife for independence almost a century ago. They all have passed away — the ol we all will stand for the rights of the South, and do our duty. And God knows it, if all of us cannot fight for our new fatherland, we have the privilege to pray for it. And pray for it we will, to day, and as long as our breath will last; as long as the beamed of South Carolina's sun shines upon us. This is our sacred duty.
