AN INCIDENTAL correspondent of the New

the hearts of many of the Union soldiers are
far from being warm III the work of invasion.
A part Of the enerny's pickats, it is said, call
ed across the river 10 Il party of our pickets,
and proposed that delegations OF two from
each side should meet in the middle of the
river and take drink together. The prOpo.
sition was accepted, and accordingly two Of
the /" Y Yankees - stripped Off their clothes to
prove their peaceful intent and armed " ii
nothng but their anteens, took canoe ard
padded out into the stream, where they
were met in like fashion by coUCie
of Confederate soldiers. After o Gus
interchange of drinks and compIi-
ments, the Confederates lestingiy remarked
that they had strong mind to take the Yam
KEGS prisoners. The latter replied that they
would rather be prisoners than not. They
were heartily sick OF the war, they said, since
it proved to be a war OF in nvasiCn. They were
willing to fight for defence, but they could
Only be dragged by force OF military discipline
to go with an invading army into Southern
territory. Their time of service would be out
on the 10th of July, and, with thousands Of
others, they would go home with an unaltera-
bic determination not TO take up arms again
in the same cause. This is only soldiers talk.
1t is true, nor was this Meeting of equal pomp
and consequence to that of Napoleon and
Alexander on Il raft; but such testimony tells
more in regard to the morale OF the enemy 8

A TOUCHING INCIDENT The following, COM

The last of Hampton's Legion left this

SINGULAR ExPEKIMESr.-Take a round piece
or pas teboard and insert lit in a quill open
AZ both ands., and lay this On another
plece OF pasteboard Of tine same shane, in
which is stuck pin, so that the pin viii en-
ter the quill. Blow through the quill as hard
az you may, but the lower piece cannot be
blown off.
A common spool, such as is used for sew
ing cotton, forms suitable apparatus for
trying this wonderful experiment. Take 8
bit OF smooth writing paper a little larger
than the head of the spool, and run a pin
through the paper and into the bore of the
spool. Now, by blowing down it will be
found impossible to blow the paper off. BY
observing closely, it will be seen that the pa
per does not quite touch the head of the
spool. It is, OF course, necessary to hold the
paper up with your hand until you begin to
blow.
The explanation is this When currents OF
air are established, radiating from the central
tube horizontally between the disk and the
paper the greater area of the disk as com
pared with that OF the tube causes the air
above the paper to be rarfied, when the pres.
sure OF the air below, not being nterbal
anced, holds the paper up. The pin acts rs
an anchor to prevent the paper from being
blown away horizontally.

Wilmington, N. c., ON the charge of using
language expressive of hostility to the Gov

in reference to the matter:
