Death or Dr. Miller.
The many friends in this city of Dr.
James A. Miller will regret to learn of
his death, which took place near Albany,
Ga., last Friday. Dr. Miller's first wife
was the eldest daughter of the late Hon.
W. S. Ashe, and for many he resided
in this city an section. During the
war he served as Surgeon in a North
Carolina Regiment, and in this po
sition," as in all. others, he won the
esteem and regard of all with whom he
came in contact. After the death of his
first wife he returned to Georgia and
there, some years back, married Mrs. M.
M, Hooks. Dr. Miller was nearly 48
years ot age. He leaves a widow and fire
children.

we agres with on neighbor relative
to the truth of history. It must be pre
served, in Email matters as well as great,
and therefore we feel it inennbent on us
to correct two errors which appear in
the first ihre lines of an editorial on
on iSher, pnblishecl in his yesterday's I
issue, Geo. Whiting was never in com-
mand of Fort Fisher nor did he. die from
the effects of his wbnnds. In Saturday's
issue of the Enviiw will be found CoL
Lamb's letter in fall and it will be seen I
there that he states that he built and I
commanded Fort Fisher until - V it I
was captured fcby the enemy. v Gen I
Wiuting was present at both fights but I
notasthe cjommander ot the Fort. Be
was Col. Lamb's superior and was in I
command of , the department; he could, of
course, have removed Col. Lamb from
the command at any time, had he chosen
so to do, but he did not so choose. In
the first fight Gen. Whiting was present
in his proper person as the officer in
charge of the department but the fight :
was fought by Col. Lamb. Gen. Whit-1
ing was a chivalrous oficer and on his I
return to his office in the city, after the 1
repulse of the Federal fleet, he, was care-1
ful, both in conversation and in his dls-1
patches, to give the credit to his saber-1
dinate.
In the second fight, when the Fort
fell, Gen. Whiting was present more as a
volunteer than as anything else. It was
seen fit, during the last days, to send
Gen. Braxton Bragg here as Command
er of the Department of North Carolina,
with headquarters at Wilmington. There
was no earthly use for him here and no
body hereabouts wanted him hut he was
sent here and he came here. As
for the object in view, the de
fence of the Cape Fear, it had
been better for us had he never been
seen here. A few days before the second

race track, just east of the city, between
the rtlank road and the eld Newbern
road. In the meantime an expedition
was being fitted out at Beaufort, of
wnich fact our military authorities were
duly informed. Gen. Bragg professed to
believe that it was for the subjugation of
Charleston and Gen. Whitintr that it was
destined for the Cspe Fear. Bragg out
ranked Whitinsr and the latter was
placed in an unenviable position. He
advised Gen. Bracrer and entreated of
him to send Hoke's command back to
the Fort, to be prepared should the fleet
be destined for that point.bat this Bragg
Dositivelv to do. The result was that
the fleet anchored off Fisher about
10 o'clrck at night, and Hoke's brigade
left here at Z o'clock the next morning
for the Fort, and after making a forced
march of twenty miles over very sandy
roads, found themselves face to face with
the Federals, who had landed and thrown
i tt j , j
up works. Had Gen. Whiting's advice
followed, Hoke woald have been there to
receive the enemy, instead of the enemy
being there to receive him, a distinction
with a difference of vast importance to
the waning fortunes of the Confederacy.

As to Mr. Davis error in regard to the

ways. Alost probably it was a lapsu
