This battle, fonght in mid winter, ia 1807, was the most important and bloody one that had then occurred.

Seventy-one thousand men on one side and eighty five thousand on the other arose from the frozen field oa which they had slept the night of February, without tent or covering, to battle for a continent. Asgereaa, oa the left, was ntterly rooted ia the morning. Advancing throngh a snow storm so thick he coold not see the enemy, the Russian cannon mowed down his ranks with their destructive ire, while tbe Cossack cavalry, which were ordered to charge, came thundering on, almost hitting the French infantry with their long laaees before they were visible throngh the storm. ;- - - ' Hemmed la and oVerGrowa; &et whole divl1 1 ion, composed of IS,006 men, with ike ekcepUoe of 1,500, were, captured or eliin.

' f One half of the two MisaissTppt regiments are regular members of the Baptist Church... There are fa the, ranks, clergymen of that denomination, as wall as of the Presbyterian asd Methodist Churches. " They bring also with them five Circuit Jodes, forty lawyers, and aa abaadaace of planters." " .""" ' " Rev. Mr. - Itegland, a Baptist, Is a private in the ' "Boomerangs" . from Winchester. - Another clergyman. Rev. W. H. Pendleton of Lexington, commands tbeRockbridge Artillery. As aa ar tUleriat,! he has no superior io the South. For many years, he has beea leading the quiet life of Rector of an Episcopal Parish. ; : The Fort Smith (Ark.) Herald has the follow ing paragraph ia regard to a company of volunteers raised ia that State. There are three : ministers ia the Crane Oil! company, commanded by Captain : Buchanan, which arrived yesterday. They are Rev. W. u L. Qoaite, Rev. F. R. Earle and Rev. Peter Car naham, all of ibe Cumberland Presbyterian Church. We also learn from the Rev. Mr. Earle that most of the members of the company are professors of relifion. and all the officers are members of the church. We have elsewhere seen a statement that each days proceedings in tbe Southern army is opened with prsyer. ' ' If those Northern elenrymea -who have dese crated their pulpits by preaching abolhioa sar. mons, and hurling anathemas against the people and institutions of the Sooth, would - enlist ia the army, it won Id prove, at least, that they have as much courage' and confidence in the justice of their cause, as their clerical brethren of the South. A great many nicely worded war sermons have been preached lately in Northern pulpits; but so far as ear reading has extended, we have heard of but one Northern preacher, a Presbyterian clergyman of Utica, in Licking county, who has enlisted in the service of bis country. Now, we do not claim that it is the doty o' clergymen to enlist as soldiers, to shoot down their fellow-men; Jor we are well aware that their mission in this world is one of peace, and not of war. " But, if our national troubles are to be settled by the sword, aad if onr "beautiful and hitherto Ilea vee-favored land is to be crimsoned with the blood of her va aooa, we think it woold be doing nothing more than a Christian dutyif at lest a portioa of oar Clergy would follow our armies to the camp and battlefield, to adminis ter Christian eonsolatioo to the sick, the wound ed and the dyirg. .) : .

It has now for a long time been the Tribune's daily basinets, either by open attacks or cow arnly insinuations, to weakea the Administration and the commanding General, and drive them into hasarding a battle before they are pre pared, in order that the defeat of our army may afford it a pretext for again advocating secession, as it did last winter." e -But ool the Tribune insists that Gea.

Curtis, Esq. was called to the chair, and John W. Cotton, appointed secretary. The chair briefly stated the object of the meet ing, after which the following risolutioos were adopted with treat unanimity. - Betolved, That we view with deep regret the violence evinced on various occasions, by many of our citizenr, when" the question of abolition has beea agitated among them j that as a coa.. inanity governed by laws and not by violence, we disapprove of each conduct, and take this opportunity of expressing our indignation again! it. not that we feel disposed to screen the cense of abolition from an expression, of that indignation which it merits, but as the friends of gwd .order, we are opposed to acts of violence. Whereas in the opinion of this meeting recent events present to os demonstrative evidence of the dangerous and inflammatory tendency of the doctrine of abolitionism t and whereas we sincerely believe this doctrine to be found ed in error at leaei, and that there is great reason to fear that some designing persons are - rivinr countenance to it, for tbe purpose of rretifriag their own ambitious views at the risk of tie safety of the. constitution. Therefor. Resolved, That we consider the doctrine as danrerooa to oor constitution end liberties i in jurious to the peace, welfare apd happiness of oor community, unavailing and useless in bebali of the objects for whose benefit it is mterdwl end virtually subversive of that compact whi' b was obtained by tbe valor and sealed with the blood of our forefathers, JZeselred, As the sense of this meeting. tl-1 we view the doctrines and conduct of tbe abolitionisms as revolutionary in their tendency, aod aiming at the overthrow of the, constitution ot' oor country, and that they evince an unhallowed determination to carry but their object with all its attendant horrors, peaceably (perhaps) if they can, forcibly if the most..'. . , ... . ' Resolved, That a committee of twelve be appointed, whose duty it shall bo to wait opon any abolitionist who may visit oor community, and caution him against lecturing or otherwise promulgating their pernicious doctrines among ns with power to adopt eoch other measures as they n their dtecretiee av. deeea exoei teat to aan- press each lecturing, and to harmonise the feel ings of society, "'h - . ... -: ' Whereupon the chsir announced tbe following earned persone as said committee, to witi Charles Colerick, Johnethen Beach, John Minikio, G. A. Jones, E. G. Woodward, G. W. Martin, John W; Cotton, Samuel Clemons N. H. Jackson, Geo.' C Ly breed, Jacob Andrews and S. B. Kinton.

CURTIS, CHAiauis-. J. W. COTTOX, Sto'T. WOULD THE SOUTH HAVE AGREED TO THE CRITTENDEN C0UPROMISE ? The Cincinnati . JTiquirer, ia reply to .the in quiries ef a correspondent, shows most cooela-sively, that tbe Sooth was ready ' and anxious to accept the Crittenden Compromise as a settle meat of oor National difficulties; but that tbe Republican leaders of the North, both in Congress and the Peace Convention, persistently and doggisbly refused any basis of settlement but tbe Chicago Platform. . Those men, who preferred Civil War to Compromise, are the real "traitors' of oar country. The Enquier says: Oor correspondent is right. Messrs, Davis, Toohbs, BaxcgiKsiDOK and the whole South, rith tbe exception of Sooth Carolina, were anxious, when Congress met last December, to set tie all our difficulties upon the basis of the Crit tenden Compromise. A Committee of Thirteen was raised in the Senate to consider a plan of adjustment.. The most eminent Senators, North and South tkmocfats and Republicans, were on the Committee. Among, them were Jefferson Datzs and Robert Toombs, now ths President aaLSecretary of Stateof the Sou them Confederacy, Stephen A. -Douglas, John J. CxrrrcsoEtf and Wo. li. SrwASB, Fxsskxoex and other in- fieential Rablicna Senators. - What was done in that Committee was thoa alluded to by Mr. Dora las ta the list t peech which he made in the- Senate of the Uoiud States, on the 2d of March, 1851, two days before the close of the .
