Gen. Barksdale. --Among the most distinguished and patriotic heroes who have fallen a victim to the present infamous war of invasion was Gen. Barksdale, of Mississippi. President Davis and Gen. R. E. Lee have paid the fallen hero glowing compliments in letters to his wife, extracts from which are given in the Mississippian. Gen. Barksdale, of Mississippi. President Davis and Gen. R. E. Lee have paid the fallen hero glowing compliments in letters to his wife, extracts from which are given in the Mississippian. In a letter dated July 24th, 1863, the country's Chief Magistrate writes as follows to the widow of Gen. Barksdale: It will hereafter be some consolation to you, as it will be a legacy of honor to his children, to be assured that your gallant husband, my esteemed friend, fell at the post to which honor and duty called him, aGen. Barksdale: It will hereafter be some consolation to you, as it will be a legacy of honor to his children, to be assured that your gallant husband, my esteemed friend, fell at the post to which honor and duty called him, and died, as he had lived, like a patriot and a soldier. To his country he was a great loss — to his friends it brings enduring sorrow — to his family it is an irreparable injury — yet the blow came to him when it was most acceptable and glorious to receive it. God tempers the wind to the shorn lamb, and He alone can giv<

This they kept up until about nine o'clock, when, having massed their troops in front of Marye's Heights, they buried their columns against the stone-wall — the first time unsuccessfully; for Barksdale, the gallant Mississippian, with his band of heroes, met the shock of battle and nobly buried it back. The enemy pause and resort to artifice. A flag of truce is exhibited, and in an evil moment the gallant Colonel (Griffin, of the 18th Miss,) received it.--They enemy thus discover that instead of holding the Stonewall with a line of battle, Barksdale's men are so stretched out that they are barely guarding it with a line of skirmishers. A few moments more and another desperate onset of the enemy's forces is made. The stone wall is carried, and the "star spangled banner" waves in triumph over the enemy's much coveted achievement, and our forces retire. Meantime a bloody dream has been enacted at Chancellorsville. The result of
