On Friday they were rioting with de''ili.!h lust
and unbridled licen.se. On Saturday the bloody and
fatal battle field told the work of awful retribution
so reeentlj- evoked and so signally manifested.
The tale of blood and carnage was truly frightful.
Our men, shielded by natural and Providential
barriera in the hands of the Almighty,^dmini.s.
tered a most terrible chastisement to tTio;se who
had outragd man and defied God.

The same correspondent says he has seen a
number of yankee letters from home to the sol
diers who were killed, which all complain of the
great scarcity of labor, representing that the cropti
in many instances, could not beharvested, for the
want of it. They express strong hopes of speedy
peace, and say that it is folly to expect ever to
raise another army in tho North. One girl says
she despairs of ever getting a husband, as there is
not a decent, marriageable man, within tv^enty
miles of her.
The Yankees destroyed the masonic regalia,
carried off the charters of the lodges, and actually
burnt .some of the Bibles found iu private houae.s
and the Churches.
The correspondent of the London Times was
on the field, and saw the actual condition of af
fairs. We may, therefore, reasonably suppose that
the truth will yet come to light in quarters where
it is most to be desired that the facts should be
known.
