Yankee Presences to prevarication. We publish below a letter from Capt. Jones, of the Confederate Army at Manassas, relative to a recent correspondence about the body of "the lamented Col. Cameron." Captain J. nails the falsehood of the Yankee officers to the counter like base coin. The proneness to prevarication of the wholkee army, from privates and runaway Captains to a gouty Lieutenant General with his feet in load water, is indeed very remarkable. The reader will be amused at Capt. Jones' allusion to the motive with which the Yankee officers have made their repeated parade of philanthropy in their pious pursuit of the body of the "lamented Camer the company. --The greatest laughter heard since the beginning of the war resulted from this piece of wit, and the dead body of Col. Stiggins is as much the word in camp as the elephant after the celebrated play. W. E. Jones, Capt. 1st Va. Cavalry. [Captain J. did not enclose the letter from Capt. Johnston. --Editors.]

Cameron's." I told Captain Johnston that I had seen the miniatures in question in the possession of a private of my regiment, aate property from the stain, unless to deliver it as soon as possible to their friends.

letter of Gen. McCunn to me, brought on one occasion by this same Capt. Johnston. It will serve, if printed as written, to show the literary status of our enemies. All who know me are well aware I would never make a bargain with such men, even about shooting pickets, especially after they had taken the first shot. It is so evident that Col. Cameron's body has been a mere pretext, while military information has in every instance been the real object, that even our men have caricatured their conduct, after a sham corn-cob fight, by a wag of one party putting a dirty rag on a pole and approaching the other party to demand the dead body of a rival wag in the company. --The greatest laughter heard since the beginning of the war resulted from this piece of wit, and the dead body of Col.

Captain Johnston that I had seen the miniatures in question in the possession of a private of my regiment, and that he got them from another private who had taken them from a corpse on the field. I never have and never will take private property from the stain, unless to deliver it as soon as possible to their friends. Capt. Johnston's letter to Gen. McCunn, also published, is a whole- cloth fabrication, without even a shadow of foundation. He never entered our lines, and never saw Col. Stuart, nor communicated with him in any way. I never told him I had or would mark the spot where Col. Cameron's remains are buried. Please publish the enclosed letter of Gen. McCunn to me, brought on one occasion by this same Capt. Johnston.
