,;.. [Our lady correspondent from West Nor-
Walk, still seems to have run stun in the im-
maculateness of the public life of James Bu-
chanan. We give below, a second letter—
and to be the last she says,—in answer to the
“ Doctor.”—Ens.]

Mn. Emma—It is with seriorus misgiv-
ings as to the propriety of troubling yourself
or your readers further with a “ discussion",
so unequally conducted as must “ The Doc-
tor’s” and mine be, from a canoe already
“ confessed,” that I yield to the promptings
of avoice within, bidding me rely on the
justness oflny cause, and not give il up egg;
Itisnot that I have any fears about the res“
dict,- time will elicit and award to James

commencement of our troubles. Neither do .
Iforgetthat where an individual takes good
care to preserve an unblemished character, he

‘need never'take'un'y troubll! about his repu-

tation. ‘ But if I could succeed in persuading
the enemies of our venerable Ex-President
totake other and truer views of his course,
I should feel the happy consciousness of do--
ing them a great service. It is impossible to
indulge in bitter, unkind feelings towards
any of the creatures God has commanded us

« to love, without incurring penalties attend-

ing the violation of His righteous law. In
daily intercourse with our fellow beings we
may not look upon the least deserving and at-
tribute to them the worst possible motives,
forgetting or neglecting to make any allow-
an’ce for circumstances over which they had
no control—calling them hard names—con—
demning them entirely without doing our-
selves an injury. An increase of “pride and
hardness of heart,” will be one of the re-
sults—loss of confidence in humanity anoth-
er. There is a law of “moral compensation”
reaching “to the secrecy of thought." “If
thou wilt think ‘ evil of thy neighbor, soon
shalt thou have him for a foe.”

It is not one of the least of the evils of
the present condition of our national affairs,
that the minds of the people of all classes
and grades of intellect, are almost constantly
iua state of excitement. Things go wrong
and somebody must be‘blamed. It matters
little what is done, or who has done it,.with

. a spirit of fault-finding, natural to our de-

praved natures, which has existed ever since
and before the days of one who “ came nei-
ther eating nor drinking, and they 'said He
bath a devil.” And another, “ the friend of
publicans and sinners,” the cry is raised,
“ Behold a man gluttinous and a wine-bib-
ber.” Human nature has undergone no es-
sential change since those days.

Were there no hindering causes in the
commencement of our difficulties, to pre-
vent James Buchanan from taking other and
ostensibly more active measures ? Were
there no Critt‘enden Compromises to be con-
sidered, before commencing active hostili-
ties ? Was it not thought beat by the cou-
servative of all parties to use every possi-
ble means to bring about acompromise, and
was not a good deal of time thus consumed ?
Would the Doctor urge that the voices 0
such men should not have been heard, but
the tocsin of war sounded high above all
peace cohsideratious ? Is there really “no
atlernative left" but to write “ James Bu-
chan either a deep dyed traitor, or an imbe-
cile ?” ‘

Permit me to say that I am fully sptisfied
it would have been entirely impossible for
Buchanan, situated as he was, to have taken
any course that he would not have been as
severely censured as he now is; To have
quelled the rebellion at any period of its
history during his administration, was cer-
tainly an impossibility. He did all he could

the Abolition party* of the certain results
if they persisted in their course. To what
effect? .

One niea men they could see nothing—
recognize no interests—sympathize with no
ones well-grounded fears of min—ruin for
both North and South, but all—everything
must be sacrificed for the “ colored burden.”

A seven year’s residence in a Slave State,
ought to give one some idea of the nature,
depth, and extent of Southern feeling: and
I would unhesitatingly give it as my opin-
ion th so deep and bitter has been the ho.-
tred o’outhern men, women and chil-
dren, years toward the people of the
North on account of the abolition element
here, .that in estimating their strength one
should recollect what the Kentuckian said
of himself, on being asked how much he
weighed, he replied, “usually about one hun-
dred and forty: but when I am mad I weigh
a ton.” V

But what is done cannot be undone ; and
I do not believe in harping on the errors of
the past. To lead at least a few candid minds
to pause and consider in what a difficult and
trying position James Buchanan was placed,
is all that Iaim to do. It is not well,
though eminently American, to rush madly
on with the crowd, and loudly condemn or
applaud, as the case may be. It was the re-
mark of one experienced in public life—used
to the ebb and flow of the popular vorce,
that it called upon to vote on a question
which he had not the opportunity to thor-
oughly investigate, he should feel safe in
going with the minority.

That some of James Buchanan’s acts are
justly open to criticism, I am quite ready to
admit. “ To err is human.” But the fact
that near the close of his administration he
found himself surrounded by “a clique of
conspirators,” does not in my estimation be-
bug to that list. When his Cabinet was
chosen he was President of the United
.States, not the president of auyparty or por-
tion of the country exclusively. Suppose
the West should now secede and all or a
part of the Western cabinet officers and
men go too, would it be just to say of Abra-
ham Lincoln that he “ surrounded himself
with conspirators?” should he be blamed
for having appointed them ?

After my “confessed ignorance of facts,”
the Doctor will hardly expect me to answer
so formidable an array as be has brought to
bear upon my unfortified‘ position. I trust,
however, that he will not therefore conclude
that I considerthem unanswerable. By no
means. 'I am glad to find one item that, with
even my limited knowledge of facts, I can
assure your readers is‘a mistake. Taking
it for granted that there is no one'sol lost to
self-respect as to allow themselves for one
moment to harbor a thought against the
truthfulness of a published statement. made
by the chief magistrate of this “once greet
and glorious nation."

I take great pleasure in transferring to
your columns the brief synopsis of a'atate-
mcnt made by James Buclmmn, respecting
the “thief" Floyd.‘ “No public arms were
ever stolen." This fact'ia established by the
report of the Committee on Military Adair:
of the House of Representatives, now before
me, made by Mr. Stanton, of Ohio, their
chairman, on the 18th 6f February, 1861,

. f and to be found in the second vol. of the

Fully believing that a majority 'of‘ the
charges brought against James Buchanan
are as csplaz‘nable as the above, I would as-
sure “thc Doctor"'that it requires only a
moderate exercise of faith to supply the
want of actual knowledge, to not only es-
sahlish my confidence in the ability and up-'
tightness of our venerable ex-president,
but also to perpetuate “a slight difference of
opinion touching the matters in question”
until the Doctor comes over to my side.

5'I‘EE WARANEWS; .
—Military affairs are assuming an appear
r'ance of activity in all quarters. The'
attempts of the enemy to drive our for3
ces from North Carolina and SOuth' Eas-

tern Virginia by falling upon them snd-‘

denly with superior numbers, has proved
a‘complete failure. For a few days the
position of Gen. Foster appeared , ex-
tremely critical, but his little force at.
Washington was extricated from its per-
ils, by the daring of the fifth Rhoda Is-
land regiment, .who requested the dan-
gerous privilege of running the rebel bats
teries, which for" six miles lined at inter-
vals the banks of the River. The trans-
port Escort carried them up in safety,
and on its return carried Gen. Foster to
Newbern, the headquarters of the De-
partment. Having failed in their 'at-
tempts to take Washington, and fearful

doned, the blockade of the Pamlico river
and withdrew into the interior. The den;
ger which shortly since threatened ._our
troops and stores on the coast of North
Carolina, seems to have passed entirely
away. Gen. Foster will probably at-
tempt no more than to guard the positions
already in our possession.

——New-Orlea_us dates to the 19th are
at hand, and bring good news. Gen.
Bank’s progress along the Techs toward
Red River has been highly successful.
On the 17th he reached Vermillionville,
in Lafayette Parish (nearly west from
Baton Rouge), after a severe fight at the
crossing of vermillion Bayou, where'the
Rebels made a desperate" resistance,-but
were defeated, with ' considerable loss on
both sides. It was supposed that Banks
would be in Opelousas with his whole
force on the night of the 18th. There
isa report by way of Memphis that Gen.
Banks has reached Point Coupes, on the
Mississippi-(the dispatch says Red River)
opposite Bayou Sara. The Rebels have
been - driven from ther fortifications at
Bayou la Rose, and the place was in our
possession. 'Among the results of this
expedition are the destruction by the Reb-
els themselves of a dozen or more of
boats, one a very powerfull gunboat
shielded with railroad iron, the destruc-
tion of the Queen of the West and the
Diana, the defeat of the Rebels where-

f ever they made a stand, the destruction

of a. large quantity of ammunition and
provisions, and the breaking up of a
probable plan for the recapture of New-
Orleans. The Rebels at one place were
under the. command of Gen. Dick Tay-
lor, son of Zachary Taylor. It is in this
wetern part of Louisiana, among the
lakes, bayous, creeks, and swamps, al-
most impenetrable by any but a native,
that the rebels have been strongest in
that State. Their complete discomfiture.
the capture of many of them, the des-
truction of their boats and stores, is a
serious blow, and almost insures their ex-
tinction in the western parishes. About
180 of our own wounded had been brought
to New Orleans. Our losses are not sta-
ted, but certainly are not heavy.
—-—-The best news from the Potomac
and Rappahannock region is that the
weather is good. and the roads are rap-
idly drying. A smart little r'ain occurred
on Wednesday. Two regiments of the
1st Division 1st Army Corps marched to
Fort Conway—some miles down the
Rappahannock from Fredericksburg-—
crossed to Port Royal in pontoous, cap-
tured a Rebel mail, and brought over
several females, and a number of mules,
horses, and prisoners. The expedition re; ‘
turned to camp on Thursday evening.
———News from Vicksburg and below
continues good. Six more transports
have been successful in running the block-
ade—the Tigress, Empire City, Modera-
tor, Anglo-Saxou, Chessman, and Harri-
son. The Free Stone and A. D. Hine
t00k two double-deck fiatboats through
the Duckport Canal. These boats are
capable of. carrying one thousand men
each. Transports now run by Warren-
tou without difiiculty, the batteries being
silenced. Transports have returned from
the Yazoo expedition. The Rebels under
the command of Gen. Wood, were ut-
tacked by Brig-Gen. Dodge, with a part
of the command of Major.Gen. Hurlbut,
at Bear Creek, and driven coufusedly to
Craney Creek. Gen Dodge uow occu-
pies Bear Creek. The situation of of-
fairs in the neighborhood of the Coldwa—
ter is unchanged. Skirmishing still con-
tinues. There are various reports from
Tennessee. and Mississippi. The Reb-
els say that 24 transports have landed at
Eastport, eight miles from Iuka, with
20,000 Yankees, chiefly cavalry. This
is doubtful. They also report a fight at
Tuscumbia, and claim a victory. Bragg
is said to be putting his army in working
order preparatory to an active campaign.
It is reported that the Union troops
have reoccupied Holly Springs. ‘
————Latcst dispatches from St. Louis,
report the defeat of the Rebel Gen.
Marmaduke. He attacked Gen. Me-
Neil at Cape Girardeau on Saturday,
with 6,000 men, but was handsomely re-
pulsed after three hours hard fighting.
McNeil was re-enforced ; he has two
gunboats ready, and is confident that be
will again whip the Rebels if they ven-
ture another attack. A' still later dis.—
patch says he has repulse the foe with
severe loss, and that Marmaduke is in re-
treat—but this seems to refer to the first
fight. Our loss is said to be less than 20
killed and wounded. ‘
—Geu. Burnside officially reports the
expedition to Celina, was entirely success-
ful (Celina is in Jackson County County,
Tenn, on the Cumberland near where
that river crosses into Kentucky.) Our
troops destroyed the town, " 100,000
pounds of bacon, 20,000,,bnsh. corn and
wheat, 100 bbls. whisky, 100 bbls. flour
a considerable quantity of sugar, cofi'ee,
tea, malt and other stores, and 40 boats
which had been used in transporting sup-
plies- The Rebels report a loss of 90
killed. We had one - wounded and on
missing.

dissolution, not only politically but physi-
cally. ‘

:of Cairo that our gunboats (Porter’s)
have-destroyed the Rebel battery at War-
renton, below Vicksburg. and the fleet
werelying at anchor at Carthage on the
17th inst. Gen. Grant was to go down
the same day. Gen. Ellet’s Marine Brig-
ade'au'd Gen. Fitch’s light-draught gun-
boats have nearly swept the Cumberland
River of the Rebel cavalry who were on
both sides of the river. Some of this
news is particular foggy.

Capture of the Rebel Battery
by the 81.11 C. V.

' SurroLx, Va, April 20, I863.

I have just time to write you a hasty
sketch of the very ” neat little affair "
which occurred here last evening. The
rebels had cautiously advanced to a slight
elevation near the bank of the Nanse-
mond river and re occupied an old but
unnoticed work of theirs, refitting it and
planting five splendid brass guns—four
l2-pouuder howitzers and one 24-pounder

The fortification was so located ata
band as to sweep the stream for quite a
distance, annoying our gunboats exceed-
ingly, and rendering all operations near
that point quite perilous. It was thought
best to dislodge the rebels. Late in the
afternoon six companies of the 8th New
York, less than two hundred men, com-
manded byfiolonel John E. Ward, of
the 8th C. , were embarked on board
the guuboat Stepping Stones. Their or-
ders from General Getty were—“when
the boat touches laud, get off at once.
Do not stop to call the roll or form a
line, but let each officer rally all the men
he can ; push right forward and take the
battery.” .After these orders the gun—
boat steamed up the river as if about to
run past the battery and the rebels made
ready to fire. They waited for her to
come past a small blufi‘ which sheltered
the bank for a short distance from the
view and the fire of the enemy. In—
stead of passing, she quickly turned and
made for shore. As she struck, the gang
planks were shoved off ; the boat swung
around with the current, making the
gang-plank useless, but the men leaped
into the water up to their arm-pits, Wh-
ed along the side of the friendly bluff,
and into a small ravine which led around
past the rear of the eutrenchments.
Companies and regiments were now
hopelessly interspersed and commingled.
Panning a moment they rallied around the
ofiicers indiscriminately, then started at
full run along the ravine, up the banks
over the rifle-pits and into the enemy’s
works without firing a shot. “ We cave!
screamed the astonished rebels, “ we cave!
Don’t fire ; don’t fire 1” and the boys did
not, for the victory was won.

But our task was not ended. “ Work
quickly boys,” was the word. The pris-
oners—11 in number—were marched on
board th unboat, and the howitzers
were rolled out of the works across a
ploughed field, and drawn to the beach
within fifteen minutes after the first man,
Capt. McCall of the 8th, leaped on shore.

Hardly were the prisoners secured
when the rebels were seen swarming from
the adjacent woods to retake the battery.
The guns just captured were ranged as by
magic around the' bluff, and turned upon
them with deadly effect. Meanwhile the
marines had, with amazing labor and ce-
lerity, transfered several howitzers from
the gunboat to the bank, and then drag-
ged them to the bluff. They too opened
on the rebels at the edge of the woods
and in the woods with wonderful rapidi-
ty and accuracy.

The rebels fell back. By this time re-
inforcements began to be ferried over--
pickets were thrown out about one-fourth
of a mile, and the whole remaining force
were set at work vigorously digging rifle
pits in the rear of the eutrenchments.
The pickets, were once driven in but some
rallied and again took their position.

The gunboats were of priceless value
is preventing, by constant firing, the ad-
vance of the rebels in force.

A new line of rifle pits has been com-_
meuced this morning and we soon shall
defy the whole rebel force to retake the
position which they have lost.

To capture a strong battery, with two
hundred men, while thousands of rebel
troops were within a mile is no common
achievement, and the men who accom-
plished the feat are justly proud and ju-
bilant.

The coolness, fearlesness, and intrepidi-

ty of Col. Ward have won him anew,
what be well knows how to prize—the
enthusiastic admiration and abiding con-
fidence of the gallant veterans whom he
so grandly led.
Much as I love to praise Connecticut
boys, I can say that they were only side
by side with the brave hardy boys of the
89th New York. Moved by one purpose
along one path, they dashed into the
works together, and the two old stan-
dards torn and pierced by bullets in many
battles, were planted on the breastworks
at one moment, in triumph.

While we think sadly and‘proudly of
our lost and injured comrades, we can but
rejoice that the casualities are so few.
The 89th lose two killed and six (I think)
wounded. The marines lose but two or
three. The 8th lose one killed and six
wounded.

. Let me here mention that during the
skirmish of Saturday, April 11, George
H. Tucker, Co. H. Was wounded severe-
ly, but not dangerously, in the neck and
shoulder. .

Our excitation was almost unbounded
when we discovered that we had retaken
four 12 poundéra captured by them from
Fremont at Winchester.

We also obtained 3,000 rounds of
prime ammunition of English Manufac-
ture. We have already very obligingly
sent back to the rebels a large portion of
this ammunition and shall be very glad
to distribute the rest as soon as the
come within range. '

Yours, very truly and proudly,

JOHN M. MORRIS.
Chaplain 8th 0. V.
