Corse (search for this): article 1
Unfortunate It is much to be regretted that it became necessary, at that particular time, to send Gen. Corse's brigade from the Junction to repel a threatened attack upon Gordonsville. Had they remained at the Junction the enemy would either never have ventured to attack the bridges, or he would have been repelled without effecting his purpose. The troops sent up yesterday evening to reinforce those already at the bridge of the Richmond, Fredericksburg and Potomac Railroad, marched to the depot from Seven Pines, a distance of at least six miles, and when they had arrived found that no preparation had been made for transporting them. They remained at the Central depot an hour and a half, the officers of the road having received no intimation of any intention to send them on.--Such at least is the rumor. We know not whether it is true or not, but strict inquiry ought to be made, and the proper punishment awarded to the delinquent, or delinquents, in the premises. Of all other
William Butler (search for this): article 1
Youthful Depravity. --William Butler, the only son of a widowed mothers, was captured by the Clerk of the Second Market yesterday, and turned over to the proper authorities, on the charge of swindling a lady out of $5--This youth, not more than twelve years of age, has been a great annoyance at the market places for some time, and, with the hope of saving him from a worse fate, his mother has put him into the Confederate naval service; but his officers, heretofore, have been unable to keep him on board. Sprightly, active, intelligent, and fond of bad company, he should be looked to, before he becomes confirmed in crime.

The great Disadvantages the United States labored under. --The richest article we have seen lately is from Harper's Weekly, of the 20th inst. We suppose it was intended chiefly for European circulation: "It seems that there are some people who think we are whipped. If so we are all like Gen. Taylor, who never knew when he was beaten. It is precisely the strain in which John Bull has addressed us from the beginning. 'Kicking's no use,' sneers honest John. 'You are dead as a door nail, if you only knew it.'--This is exactly the point we can not beat into our dull brains. Here we have been fighting for two years. We began without an army. without a navy, with, scarcely a dollars, and with no expectation of a fight. The enemy on the other hand, had been carefully preparing for many years. We suddenly see that we must fight, whether we are ready or not, and we plunge in pell mell. We are rebuffed, defeated and victorious. We win and loss battles through two years of fluctu
