&c He seems active and energetic. He sorted
his camp equipage, and left every thing, not abb
soutely necessary, behind. He proceeded to
Camargo direct, contrary to the expectations OF
some, who supposed he would go to Tampco by
water. He will join the army Immediately, and
no doubt hostilities will be vigorously prosecuted

LIFE A T THE SoUTH.-The sparseness of the
population in these Southe n States, the small num-
Der OF their staples, and their anti -manufactur.
ing character, keep them poor. 1t is amusing to
compare their occasional braggadocio with their
actual wealth and strength. No people live in
these cities with any thing of the elegancies Of
the Northern nabobs. Equipages are poor. do.
mestic arrangements imperfect. Nothing has
look Of finish about it. You may see, even in
fine public building, the plasterng off, and not
attended to for months.
The dashing young men. who come with their
hne clothes and jewelry, and careless habits TO
the North, owe half their danger and dissipation
to the contrast between Nothern and Southern
Ite. They often come from exceedingly poor
establishments at home. You observe at the
south great contrast between the style of dress
and the other social arrangements Very finely
dressed people live in very miserable Quarters
Southern gentlemen are usually particular in
their persons, at least far as the outside goes.
They are disgusting to'acco chewers, and with.
out neatness in the use oft. Clothes are COM
monty bought reddy-naade from the North. This
Is an immense trade between New York and
Southern ports.-C Cor. Chr. Ing,
