Tie Dferenee.-That the people of the
Southern States are perfectly in earnest in
their resolve to east on oppression, and IL
necessary efectually eradicate the instruments
by which it Is sought to be pcrpetuated, is Just
as certain as that the sun shines BY nothing
Is 1t more clearly demonstrated than BY the
quality of the men they send to Virginia rs the
vanguard of the band Of patriotic and leyal
sons of the sunny South, who are to drive
back and overthrow the hireling hosts of the
oaooon President All the soldiers, without
exception, who have thus far arrived from the
SOUTH wear that look of fixed determination
and lnvincible resolve that BODIES but little of
good to the continued prosperity, welfare and
ooas,ed power OF the scurvy knaves enlisted
to subjugate free people.

FEARFUL ToRNADo.--A correspondent cf the
Charleston Mercury gives the following de-
scnption of a tornado which occurred in the
neighborhood of Orangeburg, South Carolina,
on the 9th instant:
1t began about half-past four O'clock going
from West to East 1t first broke out in its fury
upon the plantation of L. q. Glover, Esq .
doing much damage to the fences, and yerv Sc
riously injurng one of the negroes Rapidly
passing from this locality, it rushed in its
desolatlng course successfully over the plan
tations of X. I. II. Legare, J. J. Andrews, II
Ellis and II. Wannamaker, tearing the fences
to pieces and ripping up the crops most
frghtfu1ly. 1t next swept through thu plan
tation of Mrs. John O'Cain. utterly DESTROY
ing all the buildings upon her place, erippling
one little negro, and throwing Mr. George
Poosef about one hundred feet literally cover
ing him with lumber 1t next passed to the
pianta tion of DR.. j. CT. jenkins, and here the
work OF devastation was most complete. The
doctors dwelling and out-buildings were en-
urely new and Well arranged, but so tier was
the destruction wrought in Il moment by the
furious whIrlwinG, that scarcely Il yestige of
any OF the houses remain. Two OF his negroes
were instantly killed, and he himself his
wife and child, and two negroes were badly
bruised and wounded.
The hurricane next passed over the pIanta
ton of Jno. Rickenbaoker ESQ DESTROYING
all his negro houses, and wounding one or two
OF his negroes. 1t then passed over Four-
Hole Swamp, but what damage il has occa-
stoned beyond Is not yet ascer tanned.
The course of the gale which have indica
ted extends for a distance of TWENTY-FIVE miles
and the width of the path of the whirIwind
was about a quarter of mile. The roar of
the tempest was frightfui. When first seen
the whirlWind was red but soon after wards
it became very black. Its power was won
derful, and it bore heavy fragments of DR..
jenkins houses more than ttoo miles from the
site of the houses. In traversng the wood it
twisted up and prostrated the largest pine
direction. Ia in in
tore up stone wall entire, leaving it with
its foundations highest.
