For the Daily Patriot.
To the Public.

Having for some time witnessed the search
ty of change among our trading community,
and believing | might relieve them, to some
xtent, from expe Use and trouble in obtain
ing small change, l was induced to issue, on
my own credit, few hundred tickets to be
used in that way, as actual necessity seemed
to demand something of the kind. did not
know at the time that | was violating any
law of our State. / believe now that no law
would be enforced against me for doing what
| know 10 be a public benefit. There are ma
ny laws that are not enforced. What sane
man would attempt to enforce the law
against another for carrying pistols or other
weapons of defence; yet it is a violation of
the law, not only fineable but may be i'm
prisoned. Who would prosecute the inno-
cent traveller for going on his journey on
the Sabbath day, and all know that 1t Is
against the law TO do any work on that day?
Reader, do you not know that you violate
the law every time that you swear an oathE
l might enumerate great many other fine
able offences. No one but an enemy would
think of troubling me with the law. l do
not know that have but one real enemy,
and know he is too ccwardly to attempt
any thing of the kind; but from all the infor-
nation that can get, am led to believe
that my notes or bills will be countei feited
hence may have great many more to re-
dem than / would issue-fOr that reason /
have declined to issue any more. There are
a few in circulation. Those who hold them
will please present them at my office for re-
demption. 1 NUT say in conclusion that l
could easily put in circulation five thousand
dollars worth of my tickets-the demand for
change being so great. 1 trust the Legisla-
ture. now in session. will provide some means
10 relieve the people of the existing difficult
ty in obtaining small change.

washing Made Easy.

EDS. MAIL-As washing is great bore to
soldiers, and especially to new recruits, allow
me, through your valuable journal, to offer
to our volunteers now in the tented field, the
following recipe for washing made easy. 1t
was presented to me by Surgeon Oglevy, on
his return from the Mexican war:
To each pint of soft, or one pound of hard
soap, add one tablespoonful OF sal-ratus, and
three tablespoonsful of spirits tnrpentine,
mix WELL To this prepared soap add hot
water sufficient to make strong suds, and to
cover the clothes you wish to wash. Let the
clothes soak thirty minutes (or all night if
not in a hurry.) stirring them occasionally
with stick, or the hand while soaking
Wiring them out well. and throw them into
cold water ten or fifteen minutes By which
time the suds will be settled. Then pour off
the suds carefully from the mud in the bot
tom of the vessel. (But If the clothes are
very dirty make fresh suds.) In which boil
the clothes thirty minutes, and then rinse
them we'll in clear GOLD water, to remove the
soap-suds. Wooden goods need be soaked
only twenty or thirty minutes, stirred well
and rinsed. OLD FoGYIsN.

The following is an extract of an article
in the New York Times of the 9th inst:
Coming directly from the people, Congress
will understand what ia demanded of the
government. 1t will be for the President
merely to submit his past action for the sp-
prevail it is quite sure to receive. and to leave
the future wholly to the discretion of the
Legisl ature. Congress will act as if invested
with the power of a national conventions; for
In merely sanctioning what the executive has
already done, in the levylng of troops for
three years. in the use of unappropriated
moneys for extraordinary expenses. and in
its appointments, 1t will have to transcend
the authority of the Constitution. And there
can be no hesitation, not only in approving
these acts, but, if necessary, resorting 10 oth-
er measures equally unwarranted by the pre-
else letter of that instrument. For the Con-
stitution, constructed upon the assumption
of a pepetuated internal peace, provided on
ly for such local displays of insubordination
as handful of militia and single campaign
would readily suppress. 1t is safe to say
that the trainers never contemplated the pos
sibility of State, or a groupe of States, not
merely resisting an obnoxious law, but ma
king open war upon the Constitution and all
national authority. The Constitution con
tains no provision for such contingency
confers no adequate power for the suppress
SION oi general insurrectiohary mo'eMeu'
land it must perish, unless we consent to
act rather upon its spirit than its letter. The
solemn instrument upon which the rebellion
makes war must not be used to weaken and
disarm its defender. On these grounds Con-
gress will rest its authority to act. And SO
authorized, it will have no difficulty in dis
posing OF all the questions which the execu-
tive leaves undecided, and need have no
doubt of securing the same loyal support
which the people have accorded to the mea-
sures OF the administration.

A gentleman informs US, from perfectly
reliable source" that letter was found on
the person of Capt. Waldrop, who was slain
in the late battle OF Bethel Church or County
Bridge, directed to his sister, in which he said
that he had not made much Roadway as yet;
that he had captured twenty negroes, and
when he had made sale of them, he would
send her a nice present.
Magruder's men express the most extreme
satisfaction with his conduct, and say they
will follow him any where.
The bearer of the flag of truce stated that
i've regiments had taken part In the battle
from the person Of WaIdrop was requested.
The watch will be returned, but not the

L1NCHBURG. June If, 1901.
Col Hill of the North Carolina Regiment
in his official report of the Bsthel Church en-
gagement, says the enemy's loss was i'm
mense. According to their own confession,
one hundred and fifty were killed. Col. Hill
says it can safely be estimated at two hum
dred and fifty.
The official report from Col. Magruder says
the enemy's force numbered three thousand
five hundred, the Contederates one thousand
three hundred. One killed and seven wound
ed on our side. The Baltimore Sun of
Wednesday, says that over one thousand were
killed and wounded, and letters from Sewel's
Point received here to-day, seem to confirm
the same account, although not generally be-
lieved.
1t is said many were drowned in attempt.
ing to cross the liver in retreat. Several
officers were killed. Thirteen of the prisoners
arrived at Richmond yesterday.
A large number of Federal troops are
moving on Harper's Ferry and an early lat
tie is expected. Our force there is sufficient
for all purposes.
Another battle is expected near Hampton,
and indeed it is reported one was fought on
Wednesday. No confirmation however.
No news from the Northwest. Gen. Wise,
with large force, has gone there.
Nothing of interest from Manassas juno
ton. Our troops expect to advance.
An immense arrival of troops here, which
are being thrown forward.

The Army in Virginia.

A correspondent of the Atlanta Southern
Coufadsraey, writing from Richmond, under
date of the 1Ith inst. says:
Gen. Huger, the best officer in the ordnance
department of the U. s. Amy. has charge OF
the forces in and about Norfolk. Gen. Ma
gruder, who was a Major, aud one of the finest
officers in the late service, has command at
Yorktown. GIN. Beauregard at Manassas
Gap; Gen. Johnston At Harper's Ferry, and
Grn. Garnet near Phillippa. There were no
better officers in the la army than Johnston
aud Garrett. 1t is understood that for the
present, Maj. Grn. Lee is chief in command
of all these forces, though 1t is reported that
all orders of general nature proceed direct
ly from the President. Whether the President
will take the field is not yet certainly known,
though such is the gen raj belief. He keeps
bis own counsels; and, as a general rule,
when you hear that he is going 10 do thing.
you may set it down as untrue. His inten
lions are only known by what he has already
done.

Horrible Affair.

Yesterday evening, two gentlemen named
Bead aud Areha't. were standing on Gay
Street near The store of 7. G. Champe, Esq
A musket was fired from the DAGUERREAN Gal
lery of Thos FL Smiley. The shot, it is sup
posed, was aimed at Mr.. Beard, but struck
Young Arehart in the shoulder, intiIcting q
serious, if not fatal wound.
Arehart is member of Capt. Colville's
company, from Rhea county.
A man named Marcum has been arrested,
charged with the commission of the deed. 1t
was a cold blooded attempt at assassination
and created intense excitement. 1t required
great effort to keep the populace from inflict-
ing on the accused summary punishment.
He was however handed over to the civil
authorities and is now in prison awaiting his
trial.-K.o1UilLe Registsr, 10Th.

people, they overlook and palliate the usuE-
pations of the President; and are swiftly pre-
pairing themselves for the tyranny and oppres-
sioos of military despotism. They are
blind to the principles of the men of '76,
who, in the formation of the government, re-
tanned control over the action of the Presi-
dent, and, as they believed, made it impossi-
BILE for him to subvert their liberties Had
WASHINGTON dared do what Mr.. LINCOLN has
done his great name and worldwide fame
the great love and reverence felt for him
could not have saved him from impeachment
And yet, the Northern people, oblivious to
their own safety, disregard he lessons of the
past, the warnings OF the present. and With
out rebuke hear it proposed that their Con-
gress at its next session shall approve what
the President has done, and register his
edicts for the continued prosecution OF the
war. 1t would seem that the wrath of Heaven
has fallen upon them, they are so dead to
their own interests and safety. Ruin, an-
archy, and despotism will be theirs, unless
they arouse from their stupor, and save them
selves before the usurper has his feet fast
upon their necks.
Fellow-citizens of Tennessee, is it not for
tunate that you have severed yourselves
from such people Had you remained with
them, how could you have escaped the fate
to which they are doomed. In the Southern
States, it is evident, the preservation of the
sacred fire of constitutional liberty is con-
signed They will guard it with the vigilance
of the vestal; and hereafter the down trod-
den of the old world will look alone to
them, for encouragement in their struggles
fol freedom and happiness against the titled
despOts who rule over them. May they never
forget their high destiny; but keep it before
them. until the world shall be redeemed and
and mankind everywhere be
free.
