A MERrrrD CoMPLiuENs--We publish, below
ran extract from note weIhave received from Mrs
A. @. Munford, Secretary af the Ladies Soldiers
Relief Society.
Mrs. NJ requests, in the note, that we make pub
lie acknowledgement, in the name Of the Society
of Mrs. Tompkins services in behalf Of our sol
iiers. which VIC should most cbeerfully do, were i
not so elegantly done ty her in the extraf that We
print We fake pleasure ia endorsing every word
Of it, and feel assured that every soldier and every
soldiers friend, will do likewise.
For Mrs. Ms kind compliments to oursef (which
we of course are too modest TO prihtl) we beg To
return thanks. She will pardon, we hope, the I'M
expected use we make Of her note, in consideration
of its being so apropos TO her object. II is as
follows;
Ma. Hitter: Please accept my thanks for the
very graceful manner Of conferng a favor, which
has only emboldened me to ask another.
You would confer ar especial favor upon all
the ladies who have been associated with Mrs r.
w. Tompkins, if you would, in your inimitable
Style write and have introduced this week neKt,
tribute Of praise which has been by her so nobly
ewon and Is now so Justly due. lis true that even
the uncultvated und shrinks from what is termed
attery but the softer term appreciation is dear to
every human heart Mrs. ToTnpkins, for weeks,
indeed months, has devoted her entire time to the
duties of her Office as President of the Sewing So
ciety fer the soldiers in the Confederate service
No one has, or could have performed the same
amount of labor in the same length of time. Very
many of the ladies Of the ladies of Carksvile have
acted nobly, and deserve the thanks of the whole
community, but yet all accord to Mrs. Tompkihs
the highest need Of praise.
The following is list that Mrs. Tompkns col
lected for the Hospital, partly in town. but chiefly
in the neighborhood of Mr.. 7. L. Yancey SO ar
tices of bed clothing, comprising sheets, comforts,
= blankets, &c. 81 articles of clothing, comprising
shirts, vests aud drawers. There account
kept Of the contributions to Camp Boon, though it
was large and liberal from town and county. The
articles tina have been contributed to the Hospital
