SOUTHERN SENTINEL.
az Admirable Movement.

Ladies, help it forward. The Washington
Union publishes the annexed letter from Mrs.
Mayor Magruder, addressed to her country
women, proposing to them that meetings be
held in every village, town and city in the counc
try, to raise funds to be invested for the use and
benefit Of the now Hesitate widow and daugh.
ter of the late Com'r Herndon. The sugges~
ton, we concur with the Baltimore Ameri~
can in thinking, is worthy of the heart of gener-
Gus, grateful, sympathizing woman. We cans
not doubt that this benevolent appeal will be
successfully carried out, and that the wife and
child Of him whose last effort was for the safety
of the wives and children of others, will be
saved from the crushing i'll Of penury and dea
pendence:
WASHINGTON, Sept %, 1857.
The undersigned has read with the most
painful emotions Of the loss of the steamer
Central America, and sincerely deplores the
sad fate of her passengers, suddenly cut off,
sin health and hope" By one of those fearful
hurricanes which in the past few years have
made so many hearths desolate, and so many
hearts to mourn.
But, mid the gloom and horror Of that dread.
full night, there is one CLEAN of glorious Light
one gallant, noble, chivalrous action that will
stand out in bold relief, and raise for its author
a monument as enduring as time, as indestruc.
tible as mind; its base resting in the hearts Of
women, and its apex as elevated as her hopes.
Save the women and. children" was the first
order Of the noble Herndon; and shall Ameri-
can women forget the gallant, the noble caps
tain, who, mid storm, gloom and desoIation,
forgetful of himself, could think of poor, frail
women and helpless children? Never! no
never.
propose TO my countrywomen that a meets
ing be called in each city and village in the
United States, and that funds be collected and
transmitted TO George w. Riggs, banker, IN
Washington, to be invested for the use of the
wife and daughter ofCapt. Herndon, late of the
Q. s. Navy. Let us do something 10 show
our gratitude to one who in time Of trouble
sacrificed himself to duty and to woman. Your
countrywoman,
SARAH MAGRUDER.
