Vanee ia bis inaugural address tor crush all the hopes which the enemies of the South have based npon the fact of his election. , Indiscreot Jfriends of Mr. Vance, without his knowledge, and we are suro with out bis approbation, represented him during the eanvass as the inveterate opponeniof the Confederate Government as anxious to pro cure; a speedy peace on terms of compromise withi the Yankee foe, and' as bitterly hostile to tbe conscript law, as a crueV oppressive and unconstitutional enactment. With these representations was coupled the declaration that the bare election of Mr. Vance would secure an immediate peace, and the return of the North Carolina -soldiers to their homes and business. While this mode of election eering for Mr. Vance, in conversation be tween man and man, was being carried on in tnkny sections of the State, the newspapers which favored his election abounded in de nunciations of ''Secessionists," and lauda tions of those termed "did Union men." It is not surprising, then, when we remember that from the beginning of this revolution, the North has had stronger hopes of luring baok North Carolina to the Union than any of her sisters of the Confederacy, that Mr. Vance's election should be regarded as a strong indication that North Carolina was ready and willing once more to take her stand by the old Flag. This is the evil, the great evil, which has grown out of the nn scrupulous and mischievous mode of elec i aoneering carried on by the friends of Mr. Y&nce for their own selfish purposes, and without, as we believe, his knowledge and approbation, and it is this evil thac he has it. in his powor to repair, by repeating officially, in his address on Monday, the languag which he is reported to have used in his speech at Asheville. Gov. Vance's Inaugu ral Address will be ar grave State paper, put forth at a solemn and momentous period in the history of the State and of the South. The sentiments expressed and the purposes avowed in it, will go to the world as the sen timents and purposes of ono of the largest and most important States of the Southern Confederacy, and, as such will exercise an influence and produce an effect which oannot be derived from extemporary speeches, made unofficially at the call of personal friends and neighbours. i Mr. Vanoe will, on Monday, have the op portunity of commencing his Executive term with the oordial good will and support of very true citizen of the State.. The repeti tion, under the sanbtion of his official oath and the deep solemnities of the "occasion, of the declarations which he is represented to have made to his friends and neighbours at bis home in Asheville, will enthrone him in the heart of every patriot of the State and of the South.

By six, o'clock the distance; between the combatant bad been reduced to musket range, and the fight along the whole line of Taliaferro', E wall's and Hill' di visions became general.

Bui as often as they charged our lines they were driven back wltb'thinnea rank,witkout being able t? move us from oar position. Finally, night "closed over the scene, and the enemy retired from the conflict. The battle was however,keptup until nine O'clock by the artillerists on both sides. J i! Our men rested on their position that night, and and on Friday morning moved forward a riile in the direction of the enemy. Our lees in this battle is estimated: at between eight hundred and a thousand killed jand wound ed. The enemy's is known to havd been more than double that number, vve nota'tne few cas ualties that have come to our knowledge. Wen oral Taliaferro was struck three times in the be gining of the action, in the foot, necki and arm. The two first were.very slight,but thelast is a pain ful though not dangerous, wound. The General continued in command until the close of the J i A SPECULATION M The Wilmington Journal says that Tea, whieh was sold at the recent .cargo sale in that town at $14 per lb., was afterwards dis posed of at $8. per lb., and a large profit made1 by the vender.

' i I The wounded have all been removed to hos pitals established near I'Aldie, in the county of Loudoun. As our informants proceeded towards Aldie, on Friday morning, they , heard tremendous cannon ading in the direction 04 pe battle held of the day before. Of the result of this fight and of the one on the succeeding day,' we know only through General Lee's two dispatches to the President, which will befouiadin this day's paper, in the proceedings of the Senate. Since writing the above we learn that Major May, of the twelfth Virginia, was killed, and Lieutenant Colonel Skinner, of the first Virginia, mortally wounded. It wa3 stated last night upon apparently good authority, that after- their defeat on Saturday, the enemy fied towards Edwards', on the Potomac, near Leesburg, whither they were pursued by a' portion of our victorious troops. Another report prevailed to the effect that a portion of our army were in Alexandria. (LT.We call public attention the adver tisement of Dr. Chas. E. Johnson, in anoth er column. The scoundrels attached to Pope's army, burnt the beautiful hotel and all the surrounding build ings, at the Fauquier WhiteSulphur Springs, near Warrentont before running from that place. These building were very spacious, and built in laperb style. FROM WASHINGTON. j . Gentlemen who left Washington on Saturday night last reached this oity yesterday morning. Thty bring startling intelligence. They say when the defeat of the Northern army was known in Washington, both the citizens and the author ities were thrown into the wildest and most aw ful panic, and all persons of secession proclivities became at once blatant. Every body mas hurry ing to and foin hot haste, and everything was in confusion They also assert positively that the Long bridge and the" Aqueduct over the Potomac had been blown up to impede the advance ot the Southern annie. . FREDBRICKSBUfia EVACUATED BY THE ENXM-T. A gentleman who left Fredericksburg on Mon day alternoon reached this city yesterday, with intelligence that the Yankees evacuated that place on Sunday evening last, and departed in the di rection of Aquia creek. They had b een engaged for several hours in destroying- all the property in their possession, and the Federal commander, Kingsbury, previous to leaving, transferred the government pf the town to the civil authorities, and a Wj:el IheinjHo place a for.e of o tizons on guard tiunday nhjbi to protect private property from plunder by the army stragglers. The advice was followed, and nearly every citizen kpt watch through the night- The enemy set fire to the three bridges, which were much injured by ex plosions of gunpowder placed there for the purpose of blowing them up. Large fires were seen burn ing the whole night on the opposite side of the river, in Stafford, where all the expensive depots of provisions, commissary stores, bakeries, tents, Ac. were located. They were all destroyed, to gether with the large barn of Major Lacy, on the Chatham estate, which was filled with stores. They accomplished their work very thoroughly, as it tbey bad no intention of returning. A let ter from a citizen of Fredericksburg says that re fugees can safely return to their homes and fami lies. Several men of Union proclivities, in cluding J. W. Hunnicutt. editor of the Christian Banner, went with the Yankees. .

The "Patrick Henry" and Jameet iwn". were transferred by the State of Virginia, and at once altered antl equipped tor service on James river. Contractswere made for three fine gunboats in Florida, which wore launched and nearly com pleted, and were destroyed npon the withdrawal of our troops from that State, to prevent them from railing into the bands of the enemy. Three gunboats were contracted for at Colum bus, Ga ,'ono of which is completed And ready for service, and the other two nearly completed. Three large gun bJ,hav.e been contracted for at Savannah, Ga , two of which aro approaching completion, and nave been delayed by military operations at that plr ce. me steam iron ctad ram "Manassas was pur chased from the parties who constructed her, and fitted for service. She was destroyed in the en- gagomont at New Orlaaru, after inkfng pnf of the enemy !s vessels. Two large and powerful iron clad steamers were contracted for at Memphis, one of which, the Ar kansas, was taken thence in consequence of the evacuation'of Island No. 10, and completed in the Yazoo Itiver. She engaged, successfully, the enemy's fleet of seventeen vessels before Vicks burg, and wa3 afterwards destroyed on her way to Baton Rouge, in o nsequence of her machinery becoming deranged whilst engaged inconfliot with five of the e'nemy'i iron clad gunboats. The other vessel1 was destroyed in the stocks at Memphis when that place was evacuated by our army, to prevent its laHing into the hands ot the enemy. The Louisiana was built by contract at New Orleans, atid was unfinished at the time of the at tack upon that city, but was nevertheless taken into action, and after the surrender at Fort Jackson, was destroyed to prevent her from fall ing into hands of the enemy. She was gallantly fought, and har commanding officer fell in the action. Her machinery was not completed at the time sne went into action, and had a corps of me chanics at .wors in ner engines. The "Mississippi," which was the favorite un dertaking of the Department, was built af.er the plan of Mr. Nelson Tift,' a wealthy planter o Georgia, who, with his brother, Mr: A. S. Tift, of Florida, and a refugee from Key West, acted as the agents of the Department In superintending I her construction, without any compensation for the plan ot- tne vessel or their services. An ex perienced naval constructor and an engineer of tho Navy were associated with them in the work. bhe was nearly three hundred feet in length by sixty teet in width, her wooden walls ten feet thick, clad with the heaviest iron plating, and was to. carry a' battery not excelled for destructive power by'any vessel in the world. She was ar rayed for three propellers and three distinct en gines, with an aggregate of fifteen hundred horse power. She was commenced about the middle of September last. Contracts were mad-.- immediate ly for the timber necessary to construct her. The machinery and iron for plating her side9, and every stick' of timber had to be procured from the foresrts of. Louisiana, .there being no ship timber or navy yard at that point. ' The wood work of this,extraordinary vessel was finished ,the machine ry, nearly completed, one propellor was in and the others ready to be placed in their proper positions. Her completion would have been efftxited in four or five weeks if Fort Jackson had not fallen, an event as un looked for by the Department as it was unexpected by the Government and country, as General -Low 11 had given! repeated assurances that our defences below New Orleans were amply suf ficient to resist any attack that the enemy could make. This vessel, which would have been the pride of the nation, with the assistance of the Ar kansas and Louisiana suoh was her peculiar con struction, magnitude and appointments would have been able, under the direction of a skillful commander, to clear the waters of the Mississippi of the entire Yankee fleet. This was the great ob ject contemplated by the Department in having them constructed. - If the enemy had been kept back a few wokis .longer by the other arm of th military servicers was ej.pectxl and. counted upon with confidence by all,the naval arm of the Confederacj- would have been felt in that quarter, at least, with pride and satisfaction to the whoie country. But the fates of war had decreed it differently, and the glorious anticipations of the Secretary of the Navy, so justly 'founded, blasted just on theeveof tha r brilliant 'realization. Many of bis friendi in Richmond know with wlat poignant grief he re ceived the- sad announcement of the unexpected misfortune.

' ' ORDER FROM GEN. BRAGG. The following general order was issued on tho 25th ult., by Qen. Bragg to his brave troop?, who it will be seen, are ordered "to be in readiness to move at an hour's notice;" therefoie stirring news may be expected from that quarter in a few days : Hxadq's Department No 2, Chattaxooga, Tennessee, August 2Sth, 1862. General Orders, No. 124. J The troops of this command will be in readi ness to move at an hour's notice ample time for preparation having been allowed, and everything neceseafy bavins been promptly supplied, the General trusts the movement will be mude with that alacrity and regularity' which can alone in spire confidence. The eoemy is before u, devastating our fair country, imprisoning our old and venerated men even the ministers of God insulting our wo men and desecrating our altars. It is our proud lot to be assigned the duty of punishing and dri ving forth these deluded men, led by desperate adventurers and goaded on by Abolition dema gogues and demons. Let us but deserve succes, and an offended Deity will certainly assure it. Should we be opposed, we must fight at any odds and conquer at any sacrifice. Should the foe res tore, we must follow him rapidly to his own ter- ritory, and make him taste the bitter of inva sion. Soldiers! the enemy is before you and your banners are free. It is for you to decide whether our brothers and sisters -of Tennessee and Ken tucky shall remain bondmon and bondwomen of the Abolition tyrant, or be restored to tho freedom inherited from their fathers.
