Patriot'sm among the Ladies.-For any one
who Is at all disposed to wayer in his conf
dence in the ultimate success ofthe cause of the
South, we would recommend as An effectuaI
panacea visit to the lecture rooms of our
churches, where the patriotic ladies of this
city are almost constantly engaged in making
up uniforms for our gallant volunteers. La
dies OF all ages and circumstances in life pre-
sent themselves daily as eager applicants to
contribute to the great cause; and, without
wishing to appear inyidious, we will mention
that among the most constant and enthusi
astlc of those who assemble at the Second
Baptist Church, is an old lady over eighty
years old. Besides, there are several others
considerably past the green age of youth.
though not quite as venerable as the instance
mentioned above, who daily engage in the
same laudable enterprise. In fact, the uni
versal feeling and sentiment manifested on
the part of our noble women carry us back to
the days of the Revolution. and put to flight
all lingering doubt as to the triumphant issne
Of the present contest.
