RUhmond Enquirer, j "THE PROSPECT BEFORE US ." 'From un article b-aring this caj.tion, in the last ''Forth Carolina Christian Advocate, we clip tho following paragraph : ' .".They (the people of tho Coiifederase States) have claimed with blind assurance that God was on ouroido that he was lighting for us because perhaps, "the wish was father to tho thought. " Rut have they looked narrowly into this question? Have they traversed thy wholo labyrinih, into whien th'n t:ontroersv has wound itself, and have iholiirhiof reason and krace so shone upon tticir understandings, as to leave no doubt or un certainty ? We fear not. What proof, clear and undoubted, have wo that God has always been on our side, or that lie operates actively, in this controversy at all ? He has no doubt purposes to accomplish in regard to North and Sjutb, but what they are po one can tell. Whether He is accomplishing them by constant and direct inter ference, or whether He has thrown oil both lor a time, because Of our ingratitude,.our crimes, and above "ali, because of our want of appreciation of the great blessings He conferred upon us- under the lirt-t revolution, and lett us to ourselves, and to. the control of Satan, who can tell? Wo con fess, theso are matters about which we have no light ; henco we have- avoided giving expression to' any confident opinion." : From the commencement of this war ice have uniformly and confidently "claimed that Ood was en out iide tnat Ho was righting for U6." "We have been led to this course, as we thougt and .still think, neither by "blind assurance," nor simply because "the wish was father to the thought," but because we believed that right and justice were on the side of the Confederate States. The whole religious pres. of the Confederacy, so far as we have seen, Bas pursued tho same course with ourselves, the late deliverance of the Advo cate only excepted. Now this is a, matter of very grave importance, and one that ought not to be passed over lightly. Have we and our contem poraries of the religious press been creating and perpetuating a '-Diina assurance .in the minds of our readers "that Goel was on. our side that ho was fighting for us ?"' If so, we are .oi a little culpable "bind leaders of the blind." One thing is certain, if God is not for us the Confede racy is iu a much worse condition than we have ever imagined it t j be. And as we have always at heart condemned that policy which attempts to conceal bad news from the poople, we kope the Ad vocate will not think us impertinent, if we call for information in regard to one or two points: (1.) Have we any example in the Scriptures in which God is represented as Withdrawing from two nations at war, taking no part whatever in the controversy ? Is ho not uniformly renresent td as operating 'VjcruWy" on,one side or the other. Ij it consistent with the special providence that hfl exercises over !'all his creatures and all their actions," to think of him as turning away from a mighty struggle irj which the lises of hundreds of thousands of his immortal creatures are in volved, showing no favor to either side? Does h who caresfor" the ravens and the sparrows thus deal with man 9 (2.) But,' suppose such, an exmple can be pro duced, and this Epicurean notion of God's' prov-' idence be established, in what case could it be conceived possible ? Only when, in the origin and in the progress ot the war, ea&h party to the conflict is equally guilty. Does the Advocate be lieve this to bi the real state of matters between thfl people of tho Confederate Spates and thos of tho United States? We ask for information,, tbojgh we cannot believe that the Ediior intends to hold up any such idea as this; and yet we see not how he can avoid this conclusion from the p sition bo has taken. We hope he will "look narrowly into this question," traverse "the whole labvrinth into which Ibis controversy has wound itself," and when "tho ligh6f reason and grace have shown" into his understanding, that he will take a more encouraging view of. things. Let him remember and profit by his own definition, that depression of mind "is a natural consequence of disaster, upon minds whose knowledge and perceptions aro limitei, ahd especially, whose hopes and CFp:ratior,s are bounded by time. " Toe religious press of the. Confederacy has a most important and weighty responsibility resting upon it during this war. It -certainly ought not to lead the people to claim " with blind assurance" that right and justice are on their side and tbat consrquently God is with them, when they , are equally at fault with those who are seeking their subjugation and ruin. Let us have all the light on these two points suggested that you can give. Us Bro., -Advocate; when wo shall probably refer to this matter againt Fayetteville Presbyterian. For the Register WELDON NEARLY TAKEN AND NEAR LY "A NARROW ESCAPE." Narrow Escape. It ia stated that Gen Matt W. Ransom, now commanding tho Confelerate foecos in the vicinity of Weldon and Garysburg maio a narrow escape from capture on Tuesday atternoon. The General and a portion of his staff wore titting in the porch of the tiut-l t Jtikson. Northampton county, not droamiog of Yankees, as our picke'ts were iar in advance, when two doz n or m ra Lincoln horaemon.who bad been pilot ed through a by-path, suddenly dashed up and attemp'.ed to surround the hotel. The General speedily mounted bis horse and several of his aids foil owipg the example, all, made good thei- e-c ipe except Capt Colvert, of the Commissary Depart ment, who wai captured. Several bullets whizzed in dangerous proximity to the General's head and body, but ho e.-capsd unhurt. "Baforeour forces ccuhl be brought up, the Yankees had suddenly departed by the same route" they tame. .Wherever there is" a cow path or hog track, through too treachery of Tories, or the willing-nt-.sa of npgro:j3 to lend their aid, our enemies will be euro to rind them out. It is hardly necessary, therefore, to enjoin the most untiring vigilaivce on the part of our officers and men. Petcrsbyirg Express. Wo had heard of the above circumstance before but made no mention of it, as we thought it not very flattering to the parties concerned, li is cer tainly remarkable that a commanding General with his staff should b3 quiotly renting at a hotel when tbey knew ihat the enemy were advancing upon tho place, and not vory distant. We are troiy glad that General Rinsom made' his escape, a d tru-,1 that when he meets the enemy his dash and gallantry may be such as to wipe out any un pleasant impressions tbat this "narrow escape may "have created. Daily Proyrcss. . The above extracts (rpm the papers of tho day vitiate "the lnieritv ofhistorv and do eroat in justice to an active, vigilant and useful officer. A simple narrative of the facts will prove this glar ing injustice. When reliable information w3 re ceived that the enemy was advancing in force on Weldon, Gen. Ransom, with his brigade, was at Richmond. 11-j entreated to b,e allowed to take his force to that point, with which ha was more familiar than any olHcer in our army, being a res ident of tho neighborhood. This request was grant ed and he left Richmond at P. M., on Monday the 27th July, and by 9 o'clock tho 49th Regiment (Col. Me Arlec) and a portion of Slater's battery were in motion, lie reached Weldori- at nud- mont's repose, 'hj proceeded .to Gary's burg, "and obtaining trom bis friends, Cols. Long, Moody, Lockbart and others, horses to mount his pickets, and ordering the forces to march towards the en emy, proceeded witn his stall" in advance as far as Jackson, to ascertain their position and force. Ho learned the enemy were advancing, and that on the night previous he ha,d reitedat Martin's Cross Roads, betwoen Murlreesboro ana Weidon, eight miles trom the former, and twenty-four from the latter place ; and were expeeted at any moment at Jackson. In passing from "Weldon to Jack son, ho cfiel not waste a single moment now so im portant did not stop for breakfast or dinner, al though he pas.-od his c"wn house aud family. While at Jackson, he did not go into tho hotel or any h.jue, but spent tho lew moments he was there, ia examining diagrams of the roads and maps of the county, and receiving the reports of the pickets anu others. After giving directions to hi? pickets, he was returning to Boon s Mill about two m.les from Jackson on the road to Weldon. Here rt-doubt had been thrown up, and here Gen. Ransom's forces wore posted to receive the enemy. While conversing with Col. Herod Faison on the road about a iniio from Jackson, the enemy's loud cheers were heard from Jackson, advancing in all the confidence of success. General Ransom rods rapidly to his command, which consisted of two pieces of artillery of Slater's battery,1 tho 49th Regiment, and five companies ot tho 24th Regi ment, (Col. Clarke's), commanded by Lieut. Col. Harris. Col. Clarke was not at this point, and therefore, the impression and statement made that he and Col. Martin's Regiment, (17th), were in this battle is an error. The force of the enemy was very heavy, and he was confident of success. It was commanded by Gen. Spears, cousisting of two thousand cavalry and nine pieces of artillery'. They made a fierce and furious onset, and alter three hours battle,the enemy retreated with a loss of several killed and wounded. Our loss was very slight, but Tor want of cavalry the enemy were not pursued. No one of Gen. Ransom's staff or any of his pickets were captured. Capt. Calvert, who was carried off by the enemy at Jackson, re sided there, and did not belong to the staff. Had the enemy passed this poin the fertile regiQfi on the Roanoke,between Jackson and Weldon would have been devtutated ; Garysburg and Weldon despoiled ; and the bridge at Weldon, so vital to our communication North, South and West, de stroyed. This is the first affair (although not the firs; battle, for he has boen wounded ontheChick ahominj,) ki which Gen. Ransom had the sole commano; and ho ha3 shown himsolf "every inch" asoldier. The inhabitants in this section, whose property he Las preserved, whose families have been protected, and even whosa personal liberties are secured, feel a deep 6eose of gratitude, and we are assured that while he is in command, this will alvVays be tbe case. We, before, were harassed by night and by day, by rumors of raids, and the ad vance of the Yankees ; we now breathe free and quiet, and sincerely hope that Gen. Ransom will be placed in the permanent command of a depart ment of which he has so familiar a knowledge,and so many and abidingties. The statement, there fore, made and published to the world by the Ex press and Progress, that Gen. R was "quietly rest ing at a hotel not dreaming of the enemy," is not trao; and the charitable and sincere with of the Progress that by "his dash and gallantry be may wipe out any unpleasant impressions," has been fulfilled to our heart's content. Every fact here stilled, is carelully made; the names given are sufficient guarantees of their entire reliability. 'Tt is to be hoped that' the Progresi (tbe Express has already done so) and others who have copied the article will do JUSTICE f F ROM " C U LP PER. It is generally understood tbat our army hr.s evacuated Culpe-p-ir, and is now west of the Rapi dau. This movement, it is said, was inevitable, the army not having been in condition numerical ly, to advance against Meade, as was expected, while the latter had been strengthened by large reinforcements Rich.
