W iae a command at the Wbile bulpbur t-prings.225 miles West of tbis city. Daring my stay at this post, besides having do k-Unre tit eorratpoodeuoe, ft would hare been impossi ble lor me to have given anything of interest connected rwitb our force s in tbat art of the Old Dominion.

Having been unwell for several weeks at the Springs,' I obtained a lurlcub as soon as I was able to travel, ar,d V ft tbat point on the 8:b e. January laat. During I my furkuiih it was my good fortune to visit ae veral portions ol the Old North Stat, and to renew many pknimiit associations connected with the Incidents ol t.ygooe jtars.

Richmond ia us well represented io tbe clerical prolcssion as any city I have ever veiled ( and their interest iu, and duvo tion to our cause, la all its branches, are well worthr ol cniulatiun. 1 bare beard s.veral able, eloquent aud pa triotic sermons by Rev. Messrs. Moore, iloge, Doggett and Duncan of tbia city, and Iter. C. K. Marshall of Mississippi. By tbe way, Dr. Doggett lost a beautitul little daughter by accident, about a week ago. Her clothing caught Oie, and she was so severely burned that she died in a lew noun i nw is tbe second child he has lost in the im wny. I he principal occasion of luterest abroad, smco I remoMo the city, was the inauguration ol President Davis, on the Hm nit. Tim day wss very inclement. as it rained almost iinxspantly iroui morn till night Still, a Urge number ol tieraons, probably some 8060 or 10,000, were present to witness the interesting ceremo ny, wbiolvtoolt place at the eastern front of thb Wash ington monument, in the Capitol tqqure. Gn at enthu siasm prevailed iu ti e whole assembly, and loud and hearty cheers fie fluently interrupted lbs,delive-ry of. the inaugural. Tbe ladies, too, notwitl standing tbo lain, were fully represented on the occasion, Aa many at could get room, lound shelter io tbo capltol building, but a lurga number was obliged to remain out doors ; and judging from the siecimeus which I saw, Silks, De La 'mes and Merinocs fared raiber badly, (or tbey were dragged abmt through the mud with but little; mercy. The world is ma 'e op of persons of d fljreut tastes, but for my part 1 would rather e a lady's foot, and even ber ankle, than to see two or three inches of her skirt b draggled in the filth and mire of a sloppy sidewalk. On the whole, too, I doubt tbe propriety of ladies ven turing out on foot, when even masculine bipeds find it difficult to -navigate, on account of tbe mud. Still, some of them would ritk their necks io gratify their cu tioeity, and poor men-lolks would as well submit in si lence. Tbey seemed to enjoy themselves oq tbis occa sion, at any rate, aod I even beard one ask il Mrs. Da vis would not accompany (be President to tha, platform from which be was to d liver bis address. And, as an other prool that tbey considir themselves raluable aux iliaries in tbe cause of independence, I beard ol anoth er lady in tLe crowd, wbo raid tbat the Washington monument lacked but one thing to make it complete. Upon somebody's asking wbat that was, sbe replied : " Why, Mrs. Washington ought to be op behind .the General " J ust imagine, lor a moment, will yen, a mil itary ebiefiain, with his martial cloak and dangling sword, mounted upon a gay and prancing charger, and then imagiue that tbe picture is not full until be takei his wife op behind him. However, dt euttibiu non dispulandum, aud wbat one may fancy, another my dialikc. Still, many of ns are forcrd to ear with tbe eccentric, but olten truthful, Dow, Jr., . Wotan f with all thy faults, I love thee still," Tbo proclamation of martial law iu tbia ci'y by tbe President was bailed with delight by the peace-luring citizens, and bas bad a Balotary effect. The liquor shops are all closed, and good order prevails in all parts of the city, ine laney trappings nave Deen stripped irom some pseodo-military characters, and some who could give no ek finite account of themselves have been lock ed on untd tbey can identify themselves. Several avow ed Union men have also been placed in custody, amongst whom ia tbe veritable Jobn Minor Rotta, wbo litres three or four wiles North ol this city. If it were not that Lincoln would retaliate by banging men of oars a hundredfold better, 1 would say : " iiang tbe lost one oMhctn " lean liate no-patience with men who are enemus to their couutry in a cruts iikb mis. Time and opj ortunity were given them last rammer to go North il tbeir Drocliritk-a led tbem to affiliate with tbe inlat ua'ed rabble, who adhered to the tenets and dogmas of the arcb-trrant Lincoln, and his associates, isow that thev bare remained here, kt tbem take tbe cmscqaen ces. We want no half-way men, and tbe sooner we get rid of such the better. Amongst thia class we coald spare all those wbo are making fortunes out ol tbe ne- extsittts or tbe people, Tbey are no oeieer tuau j an kees, and should be treated ss such in disguise,. If a few of them were dealt with as common enemies of the country the others might take warning. We are now passing through a critical era io our his tory, and unless we pu: lorth all our might," we may re concile ourselves to tbe late of a long and bloody war. Some timid ones even fear that we never will establish our independence, but such persona do not understand the spirit ol our people. We were not born to be the slavea of tyranny. Our subjugation is an Impossibility, for we can never y'teld to an inferior loe when our all is at stake. We hare gone too far to retrace our steps. Too many bright pat.es are recorded io our history to be blotted out by cowardly deserting tbe fialda. Our march must be onward, and brighter wreaths oi victory may yet be recerred for tbe bold"bearU that will claim them, So, kt us nerve cured res lor the contest, and come weal or woe, let as emulate tbe brilliant achieve ments of our brothers in arms, who bare already ren dered Iboirnarnja sacred in history Shall all our mar tial prestige, bought at the price of so much blood and so many va 'table Uvea, be thrown into eur teeth as a reproach T Shall tbe green laurels of Bethel be suffered to wither upon tbe brows of our brave soldiers T Shall tbe glory ol Maoa6sas be lost f Shall tbe heroism and valor displayed by our gallant soldiers at Iieesburg, Lexington, Oak 11 ill, Belmont and Fort Donelson hare been in rain T And, finally, thall wi be freemen T or tl,k& we be slarra, nsy, worse than slar North CaroIlotaM, arouse yourseires !

I have done all tbat in Otio was to help tbe country eve r since tbe war began, but now that the cloud grows dark, and tbe perils increase, I feel that I must give myself to the holy cause. Had we continued te gain ground acd met with no reeersis, I could bare gone oo in tbe usual course and gireo encouragement, money, and prayers, as heretofore ; but now I feel tbat personal sacrifices and peril must be addi d. . I am not acting under a batty impulse, but calmly aud in the f ur ol God, and I trust life and all io 11 ia bands, wbe bas never ceased to be gracious to me. A calm survey ot alt my connections Jn tbia revolution brings up nothing of regret, nothing that I would not do again ; and I de termined from the first tbat it should coat masometbitig, and, if needs be, everything and tbat resolve I mean to keep. 1 find, too, every day since it has te.Ti known bere that I em going, tuut, others are ii.ftuenced to go with me, 1 have a first-rate Sbarr.e'a riflu, one bucdrcv ball cartridges, and tbe same number of rifle-shell, none el which, I hope, (hall be was'ed.

And if in tbe providence of tiod I shall not come back, l trust I shall nn die in vain. 1 am better pleased with the spirit ol the people bere for tbe lust few days than ever before.
