Capt. Meager.

--A Washington letter says:

‘ Mr. Thomas F. Meagher, who was in the fight on Sunday last, yesterday told one of the priests here that he would never again take up arms against the South; that God were on their side, and that if he fought again it would be for them.

’ The same writer adds:

‘ There is evidently a very great change in the Catholic Irish who have enlisted. Many of them declare that they were induced to enlist by the representation that their churches had been burned down in the South, and that all the Sisters of Charity had been turned out of the Convents, which had been converted into barracks. They are amazed to find the statement so utterly false, and to learn how many of their countrymen are enlisted on the side of the South.

’
