The framers of the Con , titu'tiou of the United States, in providing a govern ment adapted to the highest iatereas of man and to . tlie i.nost complete liberty ever knovn to the citizen, by a providential foresight guarded the greatest in terests of mankind jfrom extinction in times of con fusion. They system'atued n vluton, and robbed it of half its horrors, and they restrain the expansion of human passion by discovering the laws by. which it can be governed. 3y the adoption of a government which is the mere j creature- and agent of States, in which all the rights of sovereignty reside, they pro vided a means by which, when a member was lopped from the common body it still woujd live and flourish with the samrhealthy and vigoroui orgins whjch be ong to the common organism. 9 Like that marvel -of nature, by vhich, in some of her productions, a member i cut off "rqm the common man grows immediately into a perfect being, onr sys tem of policy makes the same marrel easy in the af fairs of government.! This observatipn is illustrated in t it r T lut1on in ivjiich wo ar9 engaged. "A might v irovernment in a day U uverturnell. No confusion follows the common agent is sim powers and the States, in full statj ply depriveQ of its Lire of sovereignty, bear the burden of power without effort and'!, without tne sacnuce pi one element oi ngn, uear to.ireeuom and to freemen. Immediately, these independent powers, for -greater Icon venieuce ana for greater fore, without a jar and alinost instinctively, form a regular, perfect, commpu government, in place of the discard ed one' aud we behold the work of ages complete in .: I - the course of months. , 1 By the disruption of our old relation s, we have lost i.q glory ,of the past, have abated! no anticipation of the future. We have established! a permanent gov ernment, overlooking every department of our common defence; we live, as individuals, the subject of the sovereignty of our State, under, laws unchanged by the times, addressed to the remedy of every wrong and to the preservation of every rijght; laws not the waifs of chance snatched from the! tide of revolution by a people ready to perish, but tried and sanctioned r by the experience of ages, and endared to us by long usage and just rule. " The social frms of a high civi lization maintained ithsir sway undisturbed by agra rian violence, or the dreams of .art impossible cott) munism.

Our nature nas no been changed, the form of government we have adopted is1 one suited to our mutual constitution -and out; 'natural prejudices. Our lives are protected by the sjame safeguards, our prpperty held by the same tenure, our judVes are the same familiar magestrates as; of yore ; and whilst Providence grants to us the same jnational character istics of race, the same habit of j liberty; e shall re main forever great and free. .jj J - - Knowing that we have by evry internal 'arrange- meut come to Uie full statue of a nation, we have, been, and may well be, surprised that other nations have not by -the conventional language of courts ac knowletlgel our claims to the inity of manh'jod, j Conscious 'of - our own power, of jtlie lavished gifits of Providence to us, richer than th(fl;given to most other nations; we have become restless, ender the disrespect shewn us in not ''welcoming us into the fapaily of na tions.

Hamilton's Cbossing, 1 I near Fredricksburg Va. Dec 17th. J Messrs. Editors: I .wish you could have been present to have witnessed ilft great battle at and in the vicinity of Fredricksburg. " The hills adjacent ad mitted of a most excellent view and had you seen the ..hosts of Yiinkee hirelings again aud again retrace thir steps before the galling fi re wo poured into.their midst it would -have filled your breasis with enthusi asm. Our boys' as they obierved from time to-time the precipjtate flight of the foe could not restrain themselves, but gave vent to.their feelings by making the air resound with tumultuous' applause. -The ex hibition! of courage on the part of the enemy was more than usually creditable to them. They were f r a time no doubt flushed with the thought that they would: easily overpower us, by i i it of auptr o num bers, n Fatal delusion I Our commanding officers - 'had JJuscd wise foresight and precaution in the selecv tion of ground, and it is raid to have been remarked by Gen. Lee tha the e;iemy ccwld not mas& troops enough in front of us, to drive us from our position. The Confederate soldiers too were full f ardor, en-; thusiasm and determination, and being well protected in the main by rifle pits or cntueuchments ti?ey fired npon the advancing columns of the foe with deliber- ate and unerring accuracy. While the enmy suf fered to some extent in cnsing the river in thejr pon toon bridge. This leat was performed without en" countering any serious obstacles. The enemy, did not however have a very pleasant time in its passage, and Barksdale's sharp shooters cuused roahy a hapless vic tim to fall dead at the crack of their rifles. As Gen Lee had selected such an excellent position of de fence, I am strongly of the conviction that he did not really intend tv prevent Burnside from crossing. At sny rate the regret was universal 7 when it was known that the yarikees had abandoned the idea of further attack. If the attack .had been kept up f(r cue week, I candidly beliesfe we would have rhtin-and' wounded one hundred thousand men. The regiments that dealt such a terrible blow to the enemy in the ; streets of the subirrbs of the town were the 24th Georgia, and 24th North Carolina. The latter js one of the best regiments in the service, and is comma nd e 1 by Col. W. J.- Clarke. Col. Clake is accustomed to Gghtiug against heavy odds, and has never been koown to flinch. - Our loss iu thf fight, I suppose, would hjt exceed 1600-or 1700, that of the enemy must have reached something like 15,000. Jackson's corps that fought . on the right lost far' more, in proportion, than Long- street's, the latter occupying a much more favorable ; position. We : mourn the loss oT some abie and effi ; cient officer's. The Yaukees it is thought- sustained j greater damage in this respect than we did. The j prisoners taken by us are great admirers of McCleU s . Un, and express dislike of Buruside. Their strictures upon trie utter in some instances are very severe. The Yankees are now engaged in burying their deal. Matty of them are still to be seen on tbe other side of the Rappahannock though -Burnside has evidently dla McClellan determined upon 'a change of base," and it' is not unlikely the Washington dynasty may at tempt to manufacture another pigmy into a giant to conduct the grand army in its advance on the "rebel" capital. . ., .;''- . . j -- In conclusion while I will say nothi.njr in dispar agement of other States, as it would be both unjust and unwise, I am proud that the sons of North Carolina.have fought wih such dauntless and Un flinching courage in our noble struggle to extricate ourselves from the thraldom f Yankee tyranny and fanatical usurpation. . . ? Qn perusing this hasty communication, I find I omitted to state that while the 21th was at. a late hour contending with and holding in check 13 Yan kee regiments, the 15th and 25th N. C, regiments were ordered forward to support them and fought with distinguished bravery and valor. It will be a-long time tfore these 13 regiments . will agam de sire to come in conflict with North Carolinians on the field of battle . . X. Y. Z. '-'- " ' r For the Stats Journal. We are permitted to make the following extract from a private letter. " t 1 j 'Camp near Fredericksburg, Va., V v December 5th;; 1862. j Mr Dear Sister. I was more than delighted day before yesterday to receive your very interesting let ter, and it being the first one I have received since I left home, m ide it still more gratifying to rue. I 'reckon you will be somewhat surprised to know that I are here, a few miles from Fredericksburg.- We have just ended a march tf thirteen days, and I assure you I am very much jaded aud worn out. ,We left. Snicker's Gap "on last Friday jvas a week ago, after performing three weeks ot as'serere and dan gerous picket duty as ever any men performed. We received; orders from General Jackson on the 22d. and took up our line of march on Friday morning, aud came on through Winchester, and I assure you it was sad to witness the manifestations of sorrow and despair evinced by the inhabitants of that ancient town the ladies hung ther heads in grief and the the healthiest place in christ-nia .rl if V.nlr,. fmm everr ttax nranj United States. ! . V' n -'jL.;L.hr - - We nextcane on to New Market where. tbe lamented AshKy fell.

' . AtN.wilaiket we left the valley turnpike and tk to our left on the iike leading from that rlaf to Uor donsrille. We crossed the Massennettan Mf; a beaatiful range. we had reache the aumnvt the scene .was.magnificenl nd truly tubjime. We looketl back on the great Shenandoah Mt Jackson, Woodt,k, and New Market were in full view, and th rich streams and fine frms, wen held to our view ; in front we beheld the Maasennet tan Valley lying between th Massene'tac i and liuie Ridge, it is a1i a ni ignificent valley nted Tot its Une orchanlsand fertile soil.. We went on across the lat ter valley and a still more formidable obstacle was prese-.ted, that of tlie Blue Ilidge. We had it tocroas. Vc came winding anuid and around, until w had got, aa I thought, near the top, but come lo Boil ot.t after travelling a mile or two we were not wore than three hundred yards from -here we atarted. At one time rather on the side of tho moitutain the roa J was in the shape of an M. When we were in front and higher up, we looked back and saw toe column ad vancing, winding its way, the loug train of, wagons, the artillery and ail made a sight not often teeitin this life the -column j and trains all spake a line four miles long. And just imagine yourself on the summitot a highmouatain and they in full view below you wind iug'their way up the side of the mountain. We stop ped on the summit, our brigade in front and took a good view of all the surrounding caintry, tbe bands of the different regiments playing. Our band stauding on the summit of the Blue Ridge struck up tho fa miliar old air, "Marseillaise Hymn," then the 0;d North State" which caused the mountains to ech with cheers. It then struck up, "Oh for-Carolina,' while Field's Virginia brigade p'ayed the. "old, D o mini n ion State" which caued a ri valry io exist. Upon tlie whole it wus a lively time and I coi)dd hard ly realize ' that 1 was to the summit f the Blue Ridge with two t the .largest; aud fiuest vallies in the world in full view, and seven or eight beautiful towns st .ndulg forth in brilliant sublimity t) my .vision a large army below me in vifw. and clilts of rock, and precipices' and .bc-autiful htreams all sur rounding me. ; I winh you had Iwn with roe, I know yon could haye enjoyed it, and fully appreciated it. Luray, Aldu, and Honey villa, in Page county, were all in sight near the. foot of tire -mountain. L'-iray is a beautiful place, situated between two ranges of moun tains, where the scenery is great at all times. I have chosen that place to live at when peace and plenty, shall smile upon our unhappy country again. We came down the side of the mountain through . places the "sun Inis nevtr shp ie upm. We came next to Madison Court IIous a pleasant town, then to Orange Court House, where Monroe was born and lived, and also the birth. place of Gen. Zack Taylor. We cam ped at Ora ige Court House, and I siw the house where old Zck was born, and the farm nce owned by the illustrious ; Monro. I have seen since I left home the burying ground of Tyler, the house of Mason, the house of Tayror, the birthplace of Monr roe, and the home of Jefferson. While I. was iu Win chester I sw the housej in which lived the Hon. James M. Mason which was razed t the grouud by the Ynnkeei. ft was once a fine mansion, but now lies almost in ruins. .The fatm of Hon Charles ' J. Faulkner, near Winchester, "was utterly -destroyed, ravaged to the last. I am digressing too much. We next canieon through town, and cam on by where Lougstrees corps was encamped, by 'Gen. Lees headquarters .to this place, near Guina Station, seven miles from Frederieksburg, right on the railroad. Thus endeth a march of thirteen successive days, and hard forced marching at that. , One hundred and. seventy prisoners, captured by General Wade Hampton, near Dumfries on the 13th, haTO arrived at Gordonsville,' en route for Richmond, men wore the impression of sadness, at our departure, h r w oe owed on same after m'.tin-ity. So y6u .see that -Winchester (a' lovely town) and-the Dec 24, 1162-54-lm " ' Treasurer. great Shenaqdoah Valley is left open to invasion.

Hill leatiing the column, our brig ade and the old J3th in the lead. W came on through Newtown" then to Kernstown where a great battle was fought between Stonewall and Banks, and which will be famous in history as being the place where the contending forces ran a race to reach a stone fence to use as a fortification. Our Jackson Won the race; and was successful in gaining the posltiou. We then1 cme on through Middletown, Maurytown and Stras burg whe-e Jackson fell back when he was pressed by the colum-is of Milroy and Shields.; This place it strongly fortified and is a very ttrong position.

The number killed in battle, skirmishes, Ac., is about 11,000, the number wound ed 17,000. The' number of prisoners in the South and de serters amountto 6,000.
