While import int Jues Leonii Are attracting the attention of Groat men of Tho country Ono equally Impi Ortizt and pressing is anxiously agitating the minds and hearts of thousands of Good women what shall we do it is not a question of How shall i so in be my country for they Are not in a situation to Servo it except by suffering for it. They line been driven with their children from their Homes often in such haste As Del even to have been Able to save their wearing a parole and they Are not Only homeless and destitute of the Necessia ios of life but Many ulivo not Ovon friends to. Wiliom they can Appeal. They Ivo Bee i kindly received by strangers and Are grateful for receiving this Well deserved kindness but they in not consent to sit Down and fold their hands in idleness and Eon Tiute to receive this kindness mud Inuko no return yet what can they do p i am not now writing Lor those that have the Means to pay or their Board. And Btry 1hejr own clothes bit l or Tho father less and the a widow both of whom 1 know How to sympathize with Aud also for the friendless and snob As Are willing to work bal know not what to do How cheaper to dog led their children a minds than to make them Wise and intelligent at the Cost of two or Throo Hundred dollars a a year. When competent and experienced teachers fail to find schools How shall those who never taught obtain them let the people whore the refugees Are find of some kind for them a fourth suggests a thing More easily said Tymn done. But As no one will turn them out of doors let them wait and see what will turn up adds another while the majority sigh and say a a Well i can to help them it is All i can do to take Curc of myself May to they won t suffer it May be True that none will actually to turned out of Doore it but it is True that the majority of the people will be tired of giving after awhile it is human nature and will response their hospitality grudgingly and Many will not have the Means to feed much less clothe a family that has Boon thrown upon them except for a very limited period it is a Well known fact that the poor Are Kinder to each other than to Rich Aro to them. Are there hot Many ways that could to opened if some Ono who knew How would but begin to let them be known necessity has at last forced upon the country what it was never willing to see or learn before that women can if obliged to work and not degrade Thom salvos by it and it is Lor those whom god has blessed 1.3 casting their lots in secure places to help chose who Are willing by encouragement and respect arid by honouring instead of scorning them for their Noble efforts to to Independent. Not a Little Effort and that Little soon suspended will provide ways for those who Are now destitute to live and then the number to be provided for will increase As Long As this dreadful War shall last. I am unable to think of How or what these ways shall to. I see that printers Are needed and i remember to have read that in some offices All Tho types were set by girls but should that Means of support be offered it would be Only a Small drop in an a in Menso bucket. I have heard of thousands of women receiving work from factories not Cotton factories alone but factories for Tho manufacture of thousands of articles such As Are needed now and that the work was Given in such a Way that it could be taken Homo. Now who will inaugurate Shch a Ovstein Here and Benefit both the country by furnishing it with things actually needed and the women by giving them the moans of an honorable support. Other and perhaps better ways May be lit band but 1 have wailed in vain to sen item suggested by Wiser Heads and Abler puns than mine. The subject Demanda cx-1 edition will 110 Ono take it up ? if i base called the attention of those who can do it Justice it will to Well that have made the Effort for though women a rights were often denied or met by a sneer their actual wants demand speedy action. A reminiscence.among the Federal army surgeons taken by our troops in Trio recent Battles mid now in this City is or. Owen Munson hailing from Western new York. He formerly resided in Augusta ga., where he Practised dentistry and was known As an ardent pro slavery Man a Leader of religions meetings and a psalm singing apostle of the Church to which to was at ached. The hypocrisy of his nature however could not Long to concealed and by Way of illustration to will relate an incident of Bis career while palming himself off upon Tho georgians As am Crof High and holy aspirations. On 0110 occasion he purchased a negro dentist and promised him provided he would pay him Bis earnings for stipulated period together with some fifty per cent upon the amount of Tho Purchase Money that he should be Sot free to. Act for himself afterwards. The negro being an Export in the Art of tooth drawing wan elated by to Prospect of eventually becoming Rich and Independent and setting to work industriously made Money rapidly and in duo time fulfilled his part of the bargain. Having so cured Tho funds our Yankee Doe while the people of the South Are enter Taining the delusions of the exhaustion of their enemy and of european intervention and listening to the shallow Flat teries of those whose office it is to play Toady to the civil and military authorities on every occasion of Victory achieved by Imp Brave soldiers the elastic spirit of the North rapidly recovers from the depression of defeat and with increased resources and new encouragements prepares for the renewal of the conflict. We Are informed by Tho Northern journals that president Lincoln has recently visited array on Tho James River for the purpose of animating it assuring its commander of i continued Confidence and becoming Maui Char with its condition and position so this Terry resource and assistance within to Power of the government at Washington May be contributed to it rapidly and intelligently. The Large Fleet of transports with the Burnside reinforcements is announced As having already arrived in Hampton roads and Tho last regiments of Burn djo Aro to to used to strengthen Mcclellan Snow position 011 the liver. Tho Advance of Gen. Mcdowell a corps to warrantee is represented As having Richmond As Ite ultimate object and is described in Tho Northern journals As the precursor of a number of rapid and Brilliant movements contemplated by maj. Gen. Pope towards Trio Confederate capital. The cry a a to arms resounds throughout the North Tho Call of Tho Yankee president for More men will be supplied with a Libaste that will scruple at nothing the impression is created that the fall of Richmond Only awaits reinforcements of Mcclellan and the argument of emergency is plead for an instant resort to impressment if the three Hundred thousand Soldier asked feb Ravenot forthcoming within a Given time. Tho determination of the Yankee government and people that Tho South shall be put Down is As unalterable to Day As it was at the beginning of the War. Tho cry of a a on to Richmond is not relaxed it is not the Mere 1 Terance of politicians and abolition crusaders it is the War cry of the people swollen by disappointment and fierce with mad Disiro of vengeance. These ensigns in the North Are not those of demoralization and despair. Reinforcements Are already making their Way a to Mcclellan a Linos the government is invoked by the people themselves to suffer no interruption in Tho prosecution of the War and to spare no resource to recover its fortunes �11 Virginia.Richmond examiner 18 the. Tor concluded Tiratha Little further arrangements for his individual Benefit would t injure his conscience much so to sold the negro realizing a handsome profit and the sum in his own pocket. Other instances arc related of his Sharpness but this is sufficient for All practical purposes. Returning to his native country lie joined Tho abolition army nod came South to make War upon the institution to Winch he is indebted for his pecuniary. Success. A gentleman Froin the same part of new York now connected with Trio Georgia Hospital association in Thih City a cognizant of All the events in or. Munson slate shall those homeless thousands earn their history while the facts concerning Hiscar a a a rear in Augusta Are Quot vouched for by most respectable citizens of that place. This Case is a fair Kiln Starlion of Tho baseness of Tho fac with whom the South Lias to Deal. A Richmond . Daily bread and support themselves Honor ally and comfortably till they can re j turn 111 peace and Security to their old Bornes and How shall they do it then ? do not these things cull for speedy and serious attention from those who can proper directions on this subject this is no Light Sii a it position of to Flat May the of the determination of i a Arn Munt 1 with evidence o Yankee Liiv Hei r Oit a a notorious Yankee colonel killed. Among the killed in the recent Battles before Richmond was Quot col. Wyman of the sixteenth Massachusetts regiment. Col. Wyman had rendered himself quite notorious by his connection with a piece of scandal which a few years ago excited All a Gotham to an i Tonso pitch. He was the Man who eloped with mrs. Capt. James Brennan the two embarking at new York on summer evening about 6 of clock on the ferry boat for Staten Island mrs. Brennan had heretofore borne an Stiim Poncha Bio character being universally recognized among Hor acquaintances As a modest retiring lady. Slio was about 26 years of age and loft an infant a few months old with her Mother on Staton Island. The belief obtained that she had been foully dealt with and her husband and friends of sred a Large Reward for Tho detection of her supposed1 murderer. Mat Soll the now York chief of police made every Effort to ascertain the cause of her mysterious disappearance hut without effect. It was urged that Sho could not have consented to an elopement because she was devotedly attached to her child. After the lapse of two years parties travelling on the continent encountered the supposed murdered woman on the streets of Florence Italy one evening loaning on the Arm of Lieut Wyman of the d. S. A. And a correspondent of the new York Tribune the of dict to that paper. Captain now general Brennah immediately waited 0�1 Gree by and demanded Tho name of his correspondent. It was Given and proved to to of so reliable character that Tho. Brokenhearted husband was now satisfied of the perfidy of his wife and 110 More was said of Tho mutter. Shortly after Lieut Wyman and mrs. Captain Brennan returned to America and settled Down in Massachusetts where they lived As Man and wife until the present War commenced Whit Wyman was appointed colonel of the 16th Massachusetts regiment. He was the first military governor of Suffolk. Va., after trial Plano was evacuated by the Confederate forces and although promising a committee of the citizens of that Placo who waited on him to know his intentions in regard to the slaves that lie desired to have nothing whatever to do with Tho negroes he soon betrayed his promises by. The publication of a circular in which to commanded All slaves coming within his lines to report to him at the trotting Park and added that lie bin for them. He fell at the a negro Man named Nathan belonging to Lient. Wiiliams of co. G,1 first regulars was captured by a Yankee lieutenant and taken to the Yankee Camp. On saturday morning the negro was sent to a Spring to procure Macuno water for his now master but instead of performing that task to kept 011 his Way to Tho Confederate lines whore on his arrival at 9 of clock a. M., he presented himself to Gen. Hill together with two horses which he had captured from the Yankees on his a a masterly the horses were wounded and Gen. Hill gave them to the negro. Nathan immediately sold one of Tho horses for 850, but persist Eutiky Roans of to sell the other. He Thon reported himself to his master lieutenant Willi and is now serving him As faithfully Ever. The negroes at Tho South Are to shrewd to to caught by the Yau Koesy false promises of Frodo my and the present instance is but one of Many evidences of their laity Fulena acid Devotion to noir masters. English and american girls. A an English girl spends Moro than half her waking hours in physical amusements walking Riding or other Active exertion in Tho open Aii. Her Frame As a natural consequence is larger her muscular system better developed her nervous system More Arm her strength More enduring and the whole tone of her mind healthier. Her intellect by no hot House culture and it will proportionally last longer. Eight hours a Day of mental application for girls Bot won ten and Nineteen years 2 hours for meals one for religious duties and oven the Little remnant of Tho Day lolling in inactivity Are enough to break Down the strongest charge without Tho Bayonet. An ancient tennessean who had been driven from his borne in Murfreesboro by the prowling wolves of federalism amused us in a discourse of the other Day with soveral on dits of Trio Battle of Shiloh. Having three boys in Beauregard a army to naturally Betook himself after expatriation to that Camp. They wore privates in a Tennessee regiment which had gone into service with rifles from their own Good Hooks. Their uniform was like Josephus coat of Many colors after the wild beasts bad done with it. Every Man a had on just what he left his Home in and that dilapidated by the Wear and tear of Camp. For bad gear a Coon skin Cap wit i a Fox Tail for ornament was the height of fashion. When at length arms were received in Camp this regiment was offered the in fluid Rifle but after consultation they declined the Enfield i favor of their own old Hui should rifles which they bolter understood. The Battlo of Shiloh at last found this regiment in the Field actively drawing beads on the foe. In Trio distance a Quot Yun Koe Battery planted on an Eminence was pouring grape and canister upon our columns and orders came Toyli Argit. Breckinridge who commanded the brigade forgetting that this regi intent had not a Bayonet in the whole crowd passed the order Over to it and with Walio Opsand a yell off i Start de to execute Tho Mission. And they filled the Bill to a nicety. The yanks did not wait to see that no bayonets were coming but fled in dismay before the impetus charge of the Coonskin tennesseans although to guns wore All taken and order was restored the colonel addressed his regiment told them they had done Well but yonder was another Battery they might just As Well take now their hands were in. With another terrific yell off they started and with a like result. Here they were about to venture again on a third but just in the Nick of Timo they wore told it was a Confederate Battery and they had better leave it alone. That was a charge without a Bayonet a real Chargo Exchange. A a bold speech in the Lincoln Senate. In the Yankee Senate on the 24th alt., or. Saulsbury of Delaware expressed Bis views in the following Strong language to Sard that history would hand Down to the future with execration and condemnation Many acts of the present Day. An arbitrary and despotic Power now not satisfied with trampling on every constitutional right of citizens has dared prof Anely to enter the Temple of Justice and drag her ministers from Trio altar Lee who thus invades a court of Ustico proves himself a tyrant of Pabie of any assault 011 Tho liberties of Tho Puoplo. Under the pretence of suppressing a Causeless rebellion the executive department of this government in his judg Orient were daily engaged in the grossest violations of the fundamental Law. Who Aro they who Are thus murdering civil Liberty those who in the pretence of philanthropy have plunged the country into All Tho horrors of a civil War and now evidence sincerity by shouting loyalty Liilo engaged in destroying the liberties of the people and oven go so far As to dare War but Tho abolitionists refused Compromise and deliberately chose War. Thon arose Tho cry of a a on to Richmond a when it was Mot with a bloody defeat at Manassas. Then Congress passed a Resolution that the Only object of the War was to suppress rebellion an nothing else and the Loyal people of Tho Border states took Hoart and courage. How has Congress kept this -1 pledge ? they abolished slavery in Tho District of Colombia and established a Parade for free negroes from Delaware and Maryland whore Thoy were supported by taxing White men. Thoy Are paying negro team stors thirty dollars per month while our White soldiers Are working at thirteen doll Ais per month. They have legalized no i Gro testimony and established diplomatic relations with Hayti and Libona. Tho Council chamber of the nation has Beon turned into a Bouse of wailing for the wrongs of the negro be contended that the present was not merely an insurrection or a rebellion but a great revolution. Fie would Tako the admissions of the senators from Vermont or. Collator and Pennsylvania or. Cowan and assume that Tho pros ont Confederate government is a government Defato and contend that when the old government was fully ousted and a new one firmly established those who give allegiance to the latter can not be punished for treason to Tho former. The right of revolution has been assorted in this country and to thought it souled that where a revolution is inaugurated under circumstances where Success Soombs probable it May Bocora Tho duty of every citizen to yield allegiance to the now go vein ont and whore there is Only a reasonable probability of Success such support to a new government is not a felony which would subject them to prison and death or confiscation. Is was not right to visit severe punishment on men for doing what they conscientiously believed to be right. A Largo mass of these men at Tho South Boli Evo that Thoy have Tho right and that they owe allegiance to the state As Woll As to the government and they had always Given great weight to the former. Humanity Charity and All the usages of Tho civilized world cry out against a severe punishment to tho3e who yield allo Gianuso to governments de Facto whore a government Bejare ceased to protect them or have any Power. The Anaconda Odefunct.�?� the Tribune acknowledges that the great Anaconda which was to surround and crush out this a a infamous rebellion a is defunct. Lie is right hear him. Advices from various quarters justify the Gratifying belief that that Conception of i Citable stupidity the grand Union a a Anaconda a is defunct. Henceforth we Uro confident the policy of massing our disposable troops into one grand army and hurling it swiftly strongly upon Chechio Strong holds to the Rebelin will be Succo fully adhered to. The Anaconda has Cost us Ayears time Ono Hundred thousand men and five Hundred millions of Money and its fruits Are not at All Eom Monserato with the Cost. Had it never been conceived to should have failed to take new Orleans and some other ports quite so soon Whilo we should have Ere this utterly extinguished the rebellion in Virginia North Carolina and Tennessee. The a Anacondas makes a pros ont to Tho rebels of All but exclusive use of Tho rail roads and telegraphs. It enables him to to uniformly Superior at Tho Point of collision though we Havo More and better troops in the Field than he has. It enables him to know the result of any conflict within a Fow hours after its occurrence while to must wait a fortnight for any account of it but such Asho chooses to give us. In Short the a a Anacondas is a Blunder a Humbug and a nuisance. Away with Hima Why we Silt so maxy.Yankee papers confess to a loss in the late Battles far greater than on own and this in spite of the fact that we attacked them in entrenchments and drove them from breastworks of the most formidable character. This disparity is due to the fact that when Retreat begins the Slaughter is terrible. Tho aim is steadier when the foe has ceased to pour his bullets in our faces and presents the Broad and harmless surface of his Dorsum. Again wounds in Tho Back re far More fatal than those in Tho breast. In front of the Chest the ribs form a convex surface from which the Ball is Apt to glance while in rear the inclination of Trio ribs is towards the spine and the balls if they Glanco at All go directly to the nost vital part of the body. Horo it is that the a Yankees in executing those a a changes of base a for which to is so famous catches Tho disease of death in its Quot most virulent and incurable form.Richmond whig.-.
