HONOR TO WHOM Honor Is DuE.-While
below, we saw and conversed with many
of the officers and soldiers who were in
the siege of Monterey, all of whom awar-
ded the highest measure of praise to Mr..
Il. Il. Beall, Of the Carroll Volunteers
alike for his bravery, daring, gentleman :
ly bearing and attention to the sick.


We had previously heard it rumored,
that he killed the treacherous scoundrel
that shot McClung, while in the act of
surrendering his hpgi and interest led US
TO make inquiry as 10 who of right, could
boast this honor; and every one who had
an opportunity Of judging, gave BeaI the
credit, All accounts acknowledge him on
the wall almost simultaneously with Col.
McClung--in advance Of any other private
while other facts place the statements al
most beyond doubt. This gallant beha-
yiour, 10 say nothing Of other similar acts
on the part of this yonng man, deserves
much credit, and will be appreciated by
the people of Mississippi aud hailed with
much pride and qualification by the citi
zens Of Holmes and Carroll counties. -
Beall has been principally raised in this
town, which fact gives us additional cause
TO be proud of his conduct His bravery
none ever doubted, and this gallant display
Of il will make it a source of imperishable
qualification, al least, to his friends anC
relatives Lexington Advertiser.
