CCNTKEVILLE, FilKfAl, Y?., ) Monday Morning, November 25, 1861. ) Dear Enquirer:?Last night we had the second snow-storm of the seasou ; and this morning for the second time, the Bull Ruu mountains, and the peaks of the Blue Ridge rising beyond, are covered with snow. The sight is beautiful to the eye, but reminds us that the season of hostilities is past. As we shiver around oar camp fires?"one side scorched, the other freesing"?with wind and smoke both venting their fury upon us, we would welcome the humblest log hut more than heartily.? Some of our forces about Manassas, and-in the neighborhood of Norfolk on the coast, are already snugly ensconced in their shelters from the wintry blast. Thft "5th" have been out on picket duty, without tents, and with fires only for the reserves, siuce Friday. The weather hat been severe?rata, wiud and snow cotubir 7 ning to make it disagreeable ; uud you may well imagine that the boys have suffered uo little. Tbey will be relieved to day by Cot. Winder's Regiment. We suggest to the Soldiers' Aidaud Re lief Societies of York, Union and Spartaoburg?and indeed to those of the whole State?the propriety of employing every loom they possibly can, and instructing them all to weave the same kind of cloth, at least iu point of color and materia); so that the volunteers of the State may all be uniformed alike uext Spring. A blueishgray, or gray mixed, half wool aod halt oottou, would make an appropriate and beautiful summer uniform. However, we! leave tbis entirely to the taste of the ladies. .After our preseut term of service expires a Regiment will at once be raised in York, Union aod Spartanburg, for the war ; and we hope at least that the ladies of these three districts will ooufer with eachj other?decide upon the cloth?set the lootns agoing?and have their regiment uniformed uniformly. There is a grand review of the troops, artillery aod infantry, at this place to day. While we write, the various regiments of seven brigades are falling into their piaces, awaiting the Generals to be reviewed.? These grand reviews usually occur just before a fight; and Home take this as a sigo that the Hessians are about to come along; but we see nothing of the kind indicated. Everything was reported perfectly quiet on oar picket lines yesterday. The Yankee Congress meets next Monday; and it is just a month till Christmas to day. Wc 'opine that both will come and pass without a general battle. Yours for a Trifle. OUR CORPORAL . . ? etan For ihe YorkvJIle Enquirer. Mcpherson ville hospital. Messrs. Editors : I would, through your columns, most earnestly solicit contributions for this Hospital. Comforts, sheets, pillow cases, towels, ticks &c. are very much needed. The sick of DuDovant's Regiment have been sent to this place, where they receive every possible attention from ladies, whose kindness and patriotism are fully equal to the responsibility, which they have so much cocefed, of nursing our sick soldiers. I would most gratefully acknow'edge, twenty seven dollars from the Ladies of Bethshiloah ; twenty dollars from Mrs E liza A Neely. Also, 2 boxes of valuable stores from the ladies of Fort Mills Providence permitting, I will return to the coast, next, week, aDd will gladly receive contributions. J. MONROE ANDERSON. December 4, 1861 -??%?? Prom Pensacola. Pexsacola, Fla., November 25:?Everything is unusually quiet here. The enemy's shipping beep beyoud the range ol our guns. There has been no addition to the fleet. The killing of our troops was caused by the caving in of an old magazine at Fort Mcltae. The following are the names: John Arnold, George Beasly, George BagJev, Thomas Champioo, Henry Crawford, John Berry and Andrew J. Micklejohn.? The wounded are: Thomas Massey, Wm. Foster, Lient. George Howard, and Col. Villepigoe?the latter slightly, by a fragment of shell. There have been no oasaalties sinoe. From the Columbia Guardian. Camp Notes. Coosawhatchie, the lang-syne metropolis and capital of the onoe great Yemasee nation, then the county-seat of Beanfort district, then a deserted village, has again become a centre of interest throughout our Confederacy. Gen. R E] Lee arrived, assuming command of the Atlantic coast, south of Virginia, on the 7th instant, and established his headquarters here at onoe. The 7th instant was the eventful day for oar coast defences at Hilton Head and Bay Point. It was the date of the invasion of South Carolina, a day whose history is scrawled in blood, and more blood must be dashed upon the writing to blot it out for ever. Since tbat time tbe movements ot the enemy have been extremely cautions; exploring and pillaging unguarded points i jo Hilton Head Island, Pinckney's Island, and Port Royal Island; sounding Broad nver about eighteen miles up, under range of their gun-boats always; seizing a few negro men for labor, leaving the rest; gathering a small quantity (not many bales) of cotton ; and, lastly, raking in such quantities of provisions as have not been burned, perhaps enough to pay for the nauling in. It is after careful and repeated, inquiries that I give tbe above estimates of results, and, in tbe face of many hurried rumors set afloat by over-excited panio-runners tbat I have heard, am sincerely impressed tbat it is not below the truth. Whatever be their success in the future, their maraudings thus far have not yielded large returns. Some Yankee paper says one bale of cotton reaohed the port of New York, producing a profound sensation! The panic among our nervous parish friends has so far passed away, tbat things generally are resuming their wonted rounds, and the news-eye is now directed to Pensaoola. Meanwhile, Gen. Lee is not inactive; and as fast as steam and military science can carry on his plans they are progressing. In due time bis results will form material ?- . , . . ___ tor public correspondence; ouc not now, even if one were sure of knowing them. The 13th regiment?Col. Edwards'? j reached Coosawbatchie on the morning of 1 the unfortunate seventh. At first the post of observation was assigned to it by Gen. Lee. A change in the policy of the enemy ! becoming apparent later, it has since been * assigned to the post of headquarters, to ! form the central link of the chuin of fire ' that is to contraot around the hostile forces iu their midst. The enemy are not on the 1 main land yet, and probably never will get one good night's sleep upon Carolina main- 1 land soil. We shall see, however. Co!. Dunovant's regiment is at Pocotaligo, Col. DeSaussure's at Hardeevilie, aod Col. Jones's at Gardner's Corner, below Pocotaligo. Near and with these several . (forces, and elsewhere hereabouts, there are f other bodies of troops?cavalry, artillery ^ (and infantry?all hurrying on the work of prepar'atiotr; but the plan of affording in' lormation useful to our enemies has been so ^ injuriously pursued by some Southern jour ; oals, t hat 1 purpose leaving to such their 'ill iudsred course. " c- ^ { B A regular post office just established hero: readers correspondence between the mein bers of the 13th regiment and their friends, for the present, direct. ^ Since Brig. Gen. Drayton has made his headquarters at Bluffton, in the face of the invader, stirring events may be looked for in that direction, but till now no note wor- , thy events have occurred. .] Judge Longstreet has arrived among us < on a tour of observation. 1 Of other distinguished arrivals I shall ' have occasion to make mention in subsequent notes. D I CoosAWiiATsnifi, S. Nov 27, 18G1. i Our force& here have the fullest ccnfi i deoce in Gen. Lee. The severities incur red in Western Virginia have beeu referred to their true sources, and have not reflected upou the reputation of the general com- i manning. All feel that he is the man for our peculiar exigency The prestige of his great, uame prepared our people to appreciate the appointment; the circumstances under which he came amongst us were fa vorable in the same direction, and the hour was auspicious. In persou Gen. Lee is nearly six feethigh, with a very slight tendency towards J fuluess. His bearing is quiet, uniform and: grave. He speaks low and little. In com : (Landing his voice is a forcible bass. His: eye is yellow gray He wears a heavy! moustache ; that and his hair arc sprinkled' with the white of years, though glowing] j health marks his whole persoo. His dress lis unostentatious?generally the plain unj dress of the officer, without any conspicuous military insignia. A felt hat, black, oonical, high-crowned, rim turned down,with mixed lace band, is the least ordinaryitem of his dress. His quiet bearing, air of refinement, tone of firmness, temperate J habits, and eminent abilities?all thesej mark him as a gentleman and a general ofj the first rank. Since our sojourn here, Coosawhatehie has been favored with the presences of Gov. Pickens, Commodore Ingraham, Brig. Gen. Ripley, President Loogstreet, Capi. Harts teue, Adjt. Geu. Gist, Gen. Gonzales, Dr. Tally, late Medical Director, Dr. Kinloch, his successor, Capt. W. H. Trcscott, audj Capt. R. B. llhett, jr., of the Mercury. Our iuformaticu oq. the number of the invading army is that it now amounts to 25,000?the first body landed with Sher man being 10.000, and a reinforcing douchmeut of 15,000 reported to have arrived recently. Since Brigadier General Drayton has es tablisiicd his headquarters at Bluffton, we arc on the look out for livelier times. If the cuemy attempt to dislodge him at all, they will do so before he can fortify his position. An attack upon Bluffton by the eot-my would precipitate a geueral actiou, and involve our whole force as quickly as it could concentrate upon the centre of action. So that I opine, if such general action is to occur before January, it will oc cur before three days. The landing of Yankees some days ago at Buckingham? five miles from Bluffton, a little below?and their repulse in a brisk little skirmish, indicate their purpose to sieze Bluffton. Iu all, since the battle of the 7th, the enemy have captured two or three of our raea in the cavalry brauch of the service, . and our troops have caught about an equal i number of theirs Last night, from the picket stations of oar most advanced positions, numerous fires over the island were visible. The horizon was dotted with them. Tho9e fires are the burnings of the prodaoe, property and farm houses of oar island planters. Their own hands have applied the torch. This is noble. The spirit of Rebecca Motto is living in oar midst. Woald to God it were universal, and one expanse of ruin were spread before our invaders, and their every step should be in the a?hes of desolation ! Then let them see a black banner at Buckingham and Foot Point, and, my word for it, the sacrifice of human life and the sum total of suffering will be less than by showing any fastidious delicaoy to our ruffian invaiIopo finmA man forfeit their olaim to law. We hang men for robbery, murder and negro stealing. Why make an exoeption in favor of men who come with robbery for our property, insult and dishonor for our homes, and subjugation for our oountry ?

On their approaoh the proprietor, with noble patriotism, set fire to his entire drop, and was about plaoing the match to his residence when a detachment of oar oavalry arrived, and he spared the house for the troops to quarter in. Mr. Matthews is a most extensive rice and cot ton planter, and we learn has made a splendid orop this year.

Lee and Gen Lawton spent a portion of yesterday at Port Pulaski. MoClellan Must Fight thk Deoisive Battle.?The North is growing more clamorous in driving McClellan to i fight. The New York Herald says that the decisive battle of the campaign must i be fought "on the right bank of the Potomac," and remarks: Napoleon once remarked, "show me where the enemy is tbe strongest, and there I will attack them." Now, the victory at Port 1 Royal has not disminished the effective 1 3trength of the Confederate army at Manas- ' saa, and there is very little question that General MoClellan, aware of the vital im- | portance of a blow in Virginia, will ere 1 long strike treason to the ground there, where for so many months it has been the most rampant. The impending D&ttie on the right bank of the Potomao will be de- ! jisive of the fate of the rebellion, and aig- 1 aalizo to the world that the back of trea- ' ion is broken forever. . _ _ . ? m?i The Expected Battles. 1 From the movements of the enemy at ioodry points, we may be prepared to bear I jefore long of a serious battle along the ines of our defences by land and sea It in presumed that the two additional 1 laval expeditions aro destined, in conjunc ' ion with the forces now at Hilton Head, [ or thecapture of Charleston and Savannah 1 The war is thus brought to our doois, and 1 he time for energetic action is close at 1 land.

A-t Cairo he procured passes from i Gren. Grant, and the oouple started out in a ? ikiff, and made the trip down in fo?r hours * md a half. Pillow gave the young man a | pass to return. The affair created some 1 little excitement, and furnished the boys f iome food for conversation. The young i man was the nioest looking abolitionist I ( aave seen for a long time. ?

Among these were three officers, one of them grade unknown, and the other two lieutenants. One had some 830 in his pocket, a revolver, two daguerreotypes, sup posed to be the likeness of himself and wife, and a bundle of letters direoted to Lieut. Grays. The other body had his pooket cut off, and notbiog was found to tell who he was, or where he belonged. One finger was out off, and it is thought that the rebels cut a ring from the finger, and then threw the body in the river. The captain of a vessel laden with potatoes, from Maine, informs me that he saw three bodies floating past his vessel, when he was discharging his cargo at Georgetown, one of which he reoovered. Many of the bodies are so mutilated as to render recognition impossible. The Infernal Designs of the Enemy.?We publish this morning the purport of a special dispatch to the Richmond Dispatch concerning the coming reports of the Secretaries of Lincoln's Government If the authority of the Tribune is to be believed, the long-foreshadowed, infamous and hellish designs of our enemies are about to be officially recommended and urged upon Congress, and the programme will probably meet the sanotion of that pliant but uoscrupulous body. In short, tbe whole North has become abolitionized, and that fauaticism which used to be hooted and despised, whose preachers have received bouquets of rotteo eggs and similar missiles, has now become tbe goverolug principle of the masses and the Government. God rules in Heaven, and the wioked purposes of these infamous men. will come to nought. How Some People will Talk!?The Federate Union, whose editor is what the jailors call a "land lubber," and a good distance inland at that, arraigns the Carolinians for "waiting for tbe Lincolnites to fortify their position at Port Royal strong ly, and to get all their reinforcements from the North, before they molest them."
