volunteered for the protection of the gap, had a brisk brush with 2,500 of the enemy, which lasted several hours. After driving the enemy back, Maj. Thompson learned that the enemy were attempting to flank him at a gap a few miles below the Pound. He immediately removed the most of his force to that point, where a fierce battle ensued, and the enemy were repulsed. Our loss was none killed and eight wounded--the enemy's loss in killed was supposed to be heavy. The Federals fell back to Pikesville, and Major Thompson to Gladeville. * * * * * * The rumor has obtained currency that the Federals were at Cumberland Gap. No such good luck. We should like to hear of them marching up to that place, where their carcasses would make a Golgotha. They may be in the vicinity, but will not dare to venture within striking distance.

se men — judge ye what we say." A bad Prophet. Immediately after the battle of Fort Donelson, the New York Herald indulged in the jubilant language which we copy below.--"Days and weeks" have elapsed, and yet the "rebellion" is not crushed, nor is "treason" in its last throes; on the contrary, the South is more determined than ever to fight on against the hated despotism of the North: The delight which the whole North has felt over the victory of Roanoke and the capture at Fort Donelson can only be equalled by the final satisfaction, which, we shall soon experience, of having completely re-asserted the Federal authority in every portion of the revolted Stares. We have indeed real cause for congratulation, for virtually the game of rebellion is already decided, and the flag of the Union floats proudly in all but three of the rebellious States. The fate of the Southern Confederacy is scaled; treason is in its last throes, and the restoration of the integrity of the Unio

essities of political position, will now see their error. Planters who remain exposed to the visits of the cotton stealers, will see the necessity of prompt measures for removal of destruction. Planters who are hesitating about the next crop, will see, also, the imperative necessity of immediate decision, which we hope and believe will by a large majority, if not by unanimity of all true Southerners, be against cotton planting for a crop. "Speaking out." The editor of the Milton (N. C.) Chronicle deems some sledge-hammer blows at certain classes of individuals, which have a general application: We want to tell the people of the South a couple of secrets, and briefly narrated, they are these! You will never achieve Southern independence so long as one half, if not two- thirsts, of our Southern men fit for the field hold back from it and wait for a draft; and, when a draft comes, dodge, squirm, and try to get off if we get liberty and independence, every man able

g their conviction and thus removing the cause of hostility. "How should we do this? The answer is simple. Issue a proclamation of emancipation, and we shall checkmate the interests of England by an appeal to her conscience.-- * * I would have a liberal compensation to all slaveholders who were loyal. And I would not have too close a scrutiny as to their loyalty. I would pour money into the South. This would stimulate industry and enterprise, and thus, with freedom, Virginia and South Carolina would soon become like New York, I would leave none of the ten million people of the South out of these blessings, but about 50,000 traitors and rebels, who must die or go into exile. All this is now possible, because we have act into this war, and I am glad the war has come." Mr. Charles MacKAYAYayay.

Commenting on the above, the Courtier says: The revelations that have been made at Port Royal, Hatteras, Roanoke, Newbern, Nashville, and other places that have fallen into their power temporarily, show us the real character of this war. These depredations cannot give us any deeper conviction of the thorough degradation of the large mass of the race the "rebellion" is not crushed, nor is "treason" in its last throes; on the contrary, the South is more determined than ever to fight on against the hated despotism of the North: The delight which the whole North has felt over the victory of Roanoke and the capture at Fort Donelson can only be equalled by the final satisfaction, which, we shall soon experience, of having completely re-asserted the Federal authority in every portion of the revolted Stares.

Notes of the War. The subjoined summary, compiled, from late papers, will be found interesting: A Stringent order from Gen. Marshall. Brigade Headq'rs, Lebanon, Va.,March 14, 1862. General Order, No. 6 The Brigadier-General Commanding directs that hereafter all passage and communication across the Cumberland range of mountains between Kentucky and Virginia, within the boundaries of Lee, Wise, and Buchanan counties, Virginia, either way, shall cease, unless the same shall be conducted under military permit from brigade headquarters. Any future infraction of this order will, if detected at any time, be summarily punished. The General relies upon his officers to assist him in the execution of a requisition so palpably connected with, and necessary to, the welfare of the people as this is. The country is infested with as spies. Unless a man now comes from Kentucky to join the army and to assist to defend his country, and to secure the independence of the South, he
