ll kinds of provisions, and burning the houses and laying waste and destroying the plantations of every outlaw. Tryon to Hillsborough, 1 August, 1771. The commissary had got occasion to purchase any provision for the troops, from the 16th of May, till they quitted their settlements the 20th of June. On the ninth of June he arrived at Hillsborough, where the Court awaited him. His first work was a proclamation inviting every person to shoot Herman Husbands, or James Hunter, or Redknap Howell, or William Butler; and offering a hundred Chap. XLVI.} 1771.

Then twelve men, taken in battle, were tried and brought in guilty of Treason; and on the nineteenth of June, six of them were hanged under the eye of the Governor, who himself marked the place for the gallows, gave directions for clearing the field, and sketched in general orders the line of march of the army to the place o

From Charleston. [Special Correspondence of the Dispatch. Charleston, Feb. 21, 1861. It is pretty well understood here that Mr. Memminger, of this city, is to be Mr. Davis' Secretary of State; and it is also rumored that Mr. Cobb (not Howell, his brother,) is to be Secretary of the Treasury; Mr. Toombs, Secretary of War; Mr. Conrad, of Louisiana, Secretary of the Navy; Interior, ,Hon. Mr. Boyce, of South Carolina; Postmaster General, Judge Chilton, of Alabama; and Attorney General, Mr. Benjamin, of Louisiana.--This may be so, but no one knows positively. I said to you a few days ago, upon what was good authority, that President Davis would be here to day. Official business prevents it. We are getting exceedingly impatient with the slow movements of affairs in every direction; and I do not think that the people of the Southern Confederacy will much longer endure the menaces of these forts and the taunts in various quarters. As for that Peace Conference in Washin

and there he stood himself. Kentucky was virtually out of the Union, as she had refused to furnish money or men for the wicked crusade against the South. President Fuller said, there was no difficulty on his mind. He voted here for himself, upon his solemn convictions of duty, his conscience and before God. It mattered not who differed from him. Maryland was one way to-day and another to-morrow, and he would say that twenty States could not instruct him and enforce obedience. Mr. Howell fully agreed with the President, and would so advise the Brother from Kentucky. There might be some division of opinion in Tennessee, but there was no difficulty with his Church. The old men and the young men had gone to the war — he had four sons, all of whom were under arms; he had offered himself to the Governor in any capacity that he may be useful to the country, and his daughters, with their young lady friends, were spending the afternoons in practice with taverns instead their hom

rencontre took place in Lancaster county, Texas, on the morning of the 8th May, in which R. S. Guy and A. M. Browning were the actors. A correspondent sends the following particulars: After some words had passed between them at the store of Moffett & Browning, Browning seized a long-handled steel hay fork, and hurled it at Guy, point foremost. --This Guy warded off with his arm, when Browning seized another fork, rushed at Guy, wounded him in the left elbow, knocked him down by a blow on the head, stabbing him while down near the shoulder blade. By this time they had crossed the street and were close to Everts & Howell's store. Here Guy recovered his feet, and drawing a small five-shooter, fired on Browning three times, two shots only taking effect, one merely glancing across the left side and the other entering the right breast above the nipple. At the second fire Browning fell, but got up again and staggered into his store, where he now lies. Guy is not seriously hurt.

te command of Lieut.-Col. Frank Anderson, who distinguished himself by the daring exploit of capturing Castillo in Nicaragua, with 45 men, after Lockbridge and Titus had failed with 800.) Capt. Imboden's, Capt. Lewis's, and Capt. Crane's University company were the companies engaged, with one six-pounder and one howitzer, under Major Gibbes, of South Carolina, Capt. McComas and Lieut. Pairo, of Richmond. The casualties were trifling on our side, though we have to regret the death of Lieut. Howell, of Mississippi, of Capt. McDonnell's company, and that of one of Capt. Imboden's gallant Rangers. Captain Lewis was shot through the breast, but is doing well. Three privates were wounded in the above named companies, one very severely. The only loss in the artillery was Lieut. Pairo's horse shot from under him. The enemy was obviously only feeling for the flanks of our position and evidently could make nothing of it, and "no wonder," as Prof. Shead remarked, "since it has no flanks
