Tuk Hospitai. IX THIS Town.—W'e would remind
our readers in town aud country, that there are about
a hundred sick and wounded soldiers in the Ho.'^pi-
tal in this town, aud that any delicacit's that can be
spared, of vegetables, fowl?, fresh meats, eggs, but
ter. in short anything that would be acceptable to
an invalid, would be most worthily be5*towed npon
these brave and sufi'ering defenders of their country.
To those who canuot afford to give, we are retjuest-
ed by Mr. Palmer, (an inmate of the Hospital, who
has been detailed to make purchases while he is con
valescing.) to say that he will be glad to purchase
on as favorable terms as possible. He travels for
this purpose up the railroad every week or two.
A OooD CuA.vrn.—\V> saw on Monday in the re
cently established K.^tpress Office in this town, a
barrel of tiour, wtiich a soldier's wife was sending to
her*husband in Virginia. The freight was no doubt
a considenible item, but including that the flour will
be laid down in Richmond at about two-thirds of
what it would cost there.
But what most struck us was the facility afforded
by this Kxpress line to send Hospital stores for the
sick, as well as tood and clothing for relatives and
friends. W'e tru.st that the line will do a large bu
siness in that way.
On Monday two gentlemen handed us nearly .?4U0
for the Hospital Fund, which we turned over to the
President of the Cumberland llospituJ A=>ociation,
who will see to its prompt and appropriate applica
tion to the noble object designed by the donors.
Any further contributions left at this office, either
fur this purpose or for the r*^lief of the unfortunate
people of Washington, will be properly disposed of.
CoL. .loH.N K. Murcu’so.n.—We have graat plea
sure in stating that a dispatih was received here
yesterday from Capt. David H. Murchison, contain
ing the gratifying assurance tliat his brother. Col.
John U. Murchison, was not killed, but was in. tlic
bauds of the enemy, dangerously wounded in the
head. W’e trust that ho will bt- spared to his family
and his country.

therefore, to leave Raleigh and go to V'irginia. Not
being able in Richmond to obtain the transfer from
his e.visting staff appointment to anothor that was
offered to him in the field, he volunteered in the .5th
cavalry. A letter to the Kditors trom a member of
that Regiment says:
“Lieut. Holmes came to us only a short time
since and volunteered his services for the present
campaign. In every engagement with the enemy he
acted with great gallantry.”

mischief-maker. The only way they have of meet
ing the statements therein made is by denying the
authenticity of the article, endeavoring to create the
imi>ression that it was fabricated for political purpo
ses; and they try to make this plausible by saying
that “no nsine is signed to the article,” \c. * *
“Coining from a gentleman of his position and es
tablished reputation. (I think 1 can point out the
gentleman without difficulty.) no oue can doubt the
truthfulness of any statement made by him. I can
myself testily to alt, iu substance, that he writes from
what I saw’ and heard while a prisoner. * * *
“1 have knovm them [ the yankees] to rejoice more
and make greater demonstrations over an article
from the Standard than over an important victory
claimed by them on the battle-field; and very rea
sonably too, for fhe^ /I'uow that we cannot be sub
jugated if we remain united among ourselves. Hol
den’s paper leads them to believe that North Caro
lina is about to desert her sister States and return
to Lincoln’s embrace—hcnce their joy.”
The writer of ike above has filled a political sta
tion. hut he is a gentleman of unimueachable charac
ter, and there is not the slightest doubt of the entire
truthlulness of Ills statement. As to the author of
the article signed a ‘•Paroled Prisoue’*. " we repeat
what we said at the time, ‘• The wr|ier is no politi-
rian. His pursuits before the war had as little coi>-
nectu'u with politics as with arms—none whate\er
with either. 11 is high personal character is a gua
rantee for the truthfulness of his statements.” We
do not suppose he ever v^rote a political artiele. but
rather that his habita of life Itf him to be a corre
spondent of the North Carolina Pn‘sl>yteriau.
Those people who pretend that the letter was fab-
ricaU'd for political purposes do not believe what
they say. They hiou- that we would never be guilty of
such a trick, nor allow any one to do it through our
columna. I'he writers of both the article and the
above letter were captured while leading their com
mands in battle, and, along with hundreds of other
officers, suffered imprisonment for long weary months.
That they give truthful statements of what came
within their knowledge, there is no doubt whatever.
A Pai-er kok thk Times.—We have often had oc-
casiou to notii e the Standard’s habit of ignoring the
army news. Confederate victories, aud such things,
and devoting its columns to the far more important
political aspirations of W, W^. Holden. Twenty lines
sufficed the Standard to tell of Hoke’s great Ply
mouth victory, but twenty columns are not enough
to glorify W. W. Holden and abu.se Gov. Vance.
The Standard has not yet found room to publish the
correspondence between Gov. Vance and President
l>avis, for that correspondence might open the eyes | joined Mr. J. H. WiUinms to Cary Peters of I’orts
of its readers to the unfouuded nature of its com
plaints against both of these officers. But instead of
that really important official correspondence it devotes
nearly eight of the twelve columns of it' last Satur-
day s issue to matters relating to the Governor’s
election, and only one and a half columns to those
great events that had occurred in Virginia during
that week.
In that issue of the Standard, under the appropri
ate caption of “Hard Run—More Humbnggery,”
Mr. Holden, aftei a wool:'^ delay, noticps the certi
ficates of Messrs. Hamptou and Horton. As in the
case of the Vance and l>avis correspondence, the
Standard does not publish those certificates. 'I'hat
too, might open the eyes of its readers. Mr. Hol
den .says ‘he has no recollection of any sufh . onver-
sation as those gentlemen describe:—'

supposing we still held them, advanced in lines ten
deep to the ^sault, when our artillery opened apon
them with grape and canister, mowing down the first
line, which fell back upon those advancing, when our
artillery firing into the mass slaughtered them by

From the Raleigh Standard, June 7, 1864.
“If ii-e had been in his [Gov’r Vance’s] place,
while we would have yielded every proper and just
support, and that cheerfully and promptly, to the
Confederate Government, we would have seen to it
at the same time that our State was respected, as
it has not been under his Administration.”
From the Raleigh Standard, Oct. 2, 1863.
“If Gov. Vance had been defeated in 1862, civil
liberty in this State would long since have been
trampled down, and Bastiles filled with victims suf
fering for opinion’s sake would have been establish
ed in nearly every County. The military power
would have triumphed over civil law, and the arms
of our soldiers would, if possible, have been turned
against their owjj countrymen. W’'hen we review
the history of the last two years, and sec what our
people have escaped by the defeat of the Destruc
tive candidate for Governor, and the election of Gov,
Vance, we cannot be sufficiently grateful for the suf
frages of the soldiers and people in August, 1862.
which rescued liberty in this State from the grasp of
military power, and secured to the people the prar-
tical exercise of the right of free thought und free
expression
••No 4>i>vt>rnor »f thi» Sta.te, HlQce the timos that
tried meu’s souls iu the old revolution, has had gra
ver or more perplexing responsibilities on his should
ers than Gov. Vance. It is simply impossible for
him so to act as to please every oue. 11 should be con
stantly borne in mind that he is a sworn officer, smd
that his oath binds him to see that the Confederate
laws are enforced If he has not obtained for his State
all that was justly due her, it must be remembered
that he has to deal with a stubborn and perverse ad-
miniistration at Richmond; and that much of that
which has been obtained has been forced from those,
who, whether from accident or design, have been
singularly unfortunate in their course towards the
people of North Carolina.” ,
From Eastern A' C.—The yankee Newbern Times
of the 28th says that 40 yankees were killed and 17

Capture of Waiiim Trains.—An oflScer from
Gen. Smith's army thus writes, says the Register, to a
friend in Mobile:
Ilefore Steele evacuated Camden he sent a train
of 2110 wagons, guarded by 15000 men and 7 pieces of
artillery, out foraging. This train was attacked by
^r cavalry. We took ’200 prisoners, killed 800,
captured the train and artillery, and saved all but
about 30 wagons.
•‘He again sent a train of :100 wagons lo Pine
Bluff, guarded by '2800 men and 6 pieces of artillery.

-ay iu these coavcrsaiions among friends, or all that is
'aid !o us. But the gist of the charge is that we desired
a Convention to secede t>om the government. This we
solemnly deny. There is uo truth iu the charge. '
The Standard then enumerates several persons,
intimate political and personal friends,” to whom it
says Mr. Holden never said anything of the kind.
This is precisely similar to the case of the fellow who
was tried for stealing, and who, to rebut the testi-
Liect. Chari.ks T. Ha.ii;u.—A letter from a Sur
geon iu Lane’s Brigade says in reference lo the death
of this gallant yeung officer, who but a few months
ago left the Lexington Military Institute for active
service in the field:
“Lieut. Charles T. Haigh fell on the evening of
the 12th ult., while gallantly leading his company
(Co. B, :t7th X. C. T.) in charging a yank«;e battery.
A member of his company reports that ht was shot
through the head, the ball entering ubo'^'*
eye and coming out on ttie left and back part of his
head. Our men were unable to hold the ground on
which be tiill, and conseiut'nlly 1 was unable to se
cure his remains.
“Ool. Barbour had no officer whom he fsteerned
more highly than (’harlie, and although he had been
with us but a short while, he had won the p-^teem of
every otiicer aud man iu the reiriinent. His conduct
was auch in the battle of the I’ith as not only to eli
cit the commendation of officers and men of his own
regiment, but his gallantry was such as to attrai-t
the attention of Gen. Lane, who complimented him
highly for his bravery and efficiency."
From La.ne’s Brio.\uk.— L.\tract frosn a letter,

“Batti.e-Fiei.u, ('oi.u Uarhor, June 3, 1804.
“Yesterday we moved to this point, the extreme
righi of the army. Uur Division and Breckinridge’s
drove the enemy’s skirmishers from an important
line of hills. After gaining the hills, Gen. Lane and
1 wen* locating our line of battle when the enemy’s
eharp-shooters opened upon us. A miunie ball
pasriitd through the (ieupral's groin. I feared from
the profuse bleeding that the artery was cut; but we
hurried him ofl' and have since learned that the ar
Vjry was not cut nor was the bone struck. The
wound is a very severe oue indeed, but it is hoped
not a dangerous one. It is very sad to lose him
• even for a time. Col. Barry now commands the
• Brigade.
I “'Phis morning the enemy made two charges upon
ithe lines just to our left, but were quickly repulsed
*We watched the tight with intense interest. Uur
artillery opened upon them an entilade fire aa they
retreated, from which they must have suffered heavi
ly. They have a battery or two which enfilade our
Srigade, and the balls come very close when they
open upon us; but with God’s mercy I am still safe
“The right of our Division rests on the Chicka-
t'hominy. Then come Breckinridge’s two Brigades
of Virginians, then Hoke and the rest of Ewell,
suppose. I presume Longatreet is on Ewell’s left
the left of the army." J. H., Jr.
The Standard abu.ses .Mr. Hampton as a “stupid,
uninformed person, incapable of comprehentSing a
long sentence or a contingency, or even a statement
argument.’’ We never saw Mr. llamptonsi but
have UfCard from those who know him a very differ
ent account of him, and especially have we heard
that he is a man of e.xcellent personal cUaracter. It
is but ten months since the Editor of the Standard
himself declared that Mr. Ikimpton was as true
man as the State contained. 'Fhe evidence of the
Standard’s object in desiring a convention is suffi-
ient to establish a fact in a court of justice; and is
corroborated by Mr. Horton and by the contempo
rary declarations of the Standard to the same effect.

Sunday, May 29—12 o’clock, M. ]
I have just returned from u spt'ctacle the most
bloody mine eyes ever beheld.
Along a line of about 100 yards, directly in front
of our right extreme, aud over a broken woodland,
lie the dead bodies of 700 yankees, heaped in con
fused piles of two, three and half a dozen
I’hey fell on Friday afternoon. The fight which
led to this splendid result began about 5 o’clock p.
The men of Granbury’s brigade of Texan.=! were
at reat in line of battle, unprotected by stockade or
ritle-pits, and hardly expecting an advance, when
their pickets descried a body of the enemy moving
up the liill through the rough timber. They ap
proached in an easy nonchalant manner, bearing a
white flag. As soon as this was percelvtvl, orders
were given to reserve fire, and they actually came
within thirty paces of our line. It was a heavy col
by two lines of reserve, und the
the peaceful symbol and signs
were not alow to detect the snare,
thirty paces before us, and one of
their officers cried out "you’re* surrounded; snrren
der.” There was a single instantaneous reply. Along
Difr whole line leaped the fire from 1200 trusty Texan
rifles, while Keys opehed au enfilading fire with a
howitzer on their left. A sanguinary con diet en
sued. reaching more or less across Cleburne’s front,
but falling principally upon Granbury. It lasted
until 8 o’clock. At that hour the enemy fled pre
cipitately.
They lost-2.500 wounded, and left us 200'jprisouers
and 700 dead bodies to put in the ground.
The sight is horrible. For a hundred ,j?ards you
can .scarcely tread without stepping over the' mangled
forms. Most of them are shot through t.be head.
One fellow was examined and found to havo receiv-
wonii^erlul. ('oolly these Texans
went to work, repulsing an entire corps ia three
hours. It was the corps of Maj, (ien. Howa rd.

ha.s decidedly and signally beaten the enemy in its front,
and that foui lift hs of its losses have been sustained solely
