understood, will look in a considerable measure,
to theBanks. 1t is regretted that Ills action is
embarrassed by the position Of the Louisisna
Banks which are prohibited from suspendiug
specie payments under pain of forfeiture Of
their charters. In Alabama, there is no such
prohibition, although the; Mobile Banks refuse
to suspend specie payments.

MEETING OF THE ABBEv1LLE TROOP.

nCEAANU Of 1dE AbbESALlAE. TRUOP.
The company met agreeably to ADJOURNMENT,
when the Committees on Uniform, and Sub

which were adopted.
The Committee on Subscriptions and Horses
reported that they hadobtained Twenty eight
Horaes and Fifteen Hundred Dollars is Money.
It was ascertained, however, that there are
still several horses wartng to comp lete tho
requisite number for the company. The Com
mittee would beg leave to ask those who have
not and are willing to contribute. that theysdo
80 as early as practicable.
Committee, consisting of ". James LON.
nx, L. H. Russell and S. Henry Jones, was ap-
pointed for the purpose of collecting up the
money and horses which have been subscribed,
and report at, the next meeting Of the com
pany. ,
The aubjoined letter wassread by the Chair
man, apd ordered to beSpnblished. It was
written by Capt, G. Med Miller, at Camp
Pickens, by request of private in his company
Col. A. H. McGee. It was regarded by tn.
company as truly worthy Of special remark,
as, under the the circumstances. it tells the pa
trioticafeeiings Of one especially suited to the
times, and is calculated to arouse the most
miserly heartsd and narrow-minded to acts Of
patfiotism and bencvolence. Col. McGee is
unwilling merely to sacrifice himself on his
ry'saltar. but freely contribu tes his prop
erty to the. formation of other companies.
Capt Miller need never fear success whilst he
commands such men as Mctiss:
w. J.. :LoA4.-Dear Sir: am authorized
by Col. Alb. McGee,s member of my com.
pany, to say to you that he hes q fine horse
that he is willing to give to any clever man, q
member of your company. The horse is at
his plantation, near Cokesbury, and is at your
service whenever yon need it. He will write
tomorrow notifying his family of the fact

The God OF buttlcs has again permitted
Southern vaiur to triumph over superior
force. The vast preparations Of our enemies
have been defeated; their boastful hosts dis.
comfitted the soil which was polluted by their
insolert Invasion has been fertilized by their
blood; their vcngeful determination to strike
terror ny slnughtering our wounded, has re-
suited in the capture Of many of their panic
stricken horde; their grand parks Of artillery
and new-fashionei engines Of destruction are
ours; the hand cuffs provided for the punish.
ment and disgrace of the faithful friends of the
South, can now be exhibited by us, as proofs
of their disappointed malice and arbarous fe-
rocity; their tlags which were consecraled and
spreadlfdrth with pompous exutation, as we'll
rs our own emblems which were meanly used
ny them to sntraP lis, are now trophies of our
victory.
But the war is not ended. Hatred, woun.
ded pride, all demoniacal passions are urging
our enemies to renewed exertions. Mobs in
the North overawe ali resistance aud compel
there an almost unanimous support of tile
most direful mersures proposed for our subjuge-
tion or exterminntion. Regiments by scores
are offered to the wickedSrulep, who have per-
lied their own country in their mad schemes
to ruin ours. Soon the foe will be uponsus n
gain-again he must be repulsed. The united
efforts of all persons in the Confederate States
are now needed to save property, life, liberty,
honor.

have received by mail some further particu-
lars of the fire at West Castleton, an s",'a"'
of which was sent US by telegrafn ''"ha"'

The FIRE occurred on Friday night, and
the building burned was, DIS before stated, the
barn belonging to the West CastletOn Slate
Company. This, with all Its contents, in
Guiding seven valuable horses, besides sever

surance in the Vermont Mutual of $780,
The fire was discovered at about IL 1-2
o'clock, and Is supposed to have been caused
by the muIatto boy who it is said went into
the barn to sleep and was known to have
matches and pipes about him. His remains
were found in the morning, burned to crisp
near the part of the building where the fire
was first seen. An inquest was held, and
verdict rendered in accordance with the above
facts.

SOUTHERN EXODUS "A remarkable fea-
ture of the present beligerent controversy
between the North and t be South IS that the
helpless wives and children, and the proper
ty of the belligerents, are sent over TO their
enemies for protection ! This is movement
heretofore unheard of a nong fighting par
ties, and is now confined entirely TO the
South. We hear of no wives and children,
or families fleeing from the free to the slave
States for safety The tide of WHITE fugi-
tiyes is pouring into the towns and cities all
along the border. OF the arrivals at Cincin-
natl, the Western Christian Advocate says :
There are thirty-nine arrivals at the
hotels in Cincinnati, of persons and families
from various parts of the South-some from
South Carolina, others from Georgia and
Alabama, and others yet from Florida and
LouisIana-on Monday Through the re
naming days of the Wee K, there were seven
ty additional arrivals fir ON the same region.
We do not pretend to say why these persons
and families flee from the South to the North
,chae there are none that are fleeing from the
North to the South Somebody knows the
the reason why. The reign of terror at the
South is becoming fearful.
A lady relative in a note to this office,
dated at Columbia, Arkansas, says that sew
eral negroes and white men had been hun
for cause in that vicinity, and that it was
certain death to man to say he was in ia
vor of the American flag. Earring and
feathering, shooting and hanging are current
pastimes of the South, and the leading men
there kno W this to he true and they know
another thing, that no man has been tarred
or feathered, or hung in the North for any
utterances, either for or against the Govern
ment. Such is the difference between the
two sections. The talk in the Soufh5 by
Doctors of Divinity, and preachers, and poll
tieians generally, is that in this conflict the
North seeks only booty and beauty WI
they tell US ho'o it is that they, being at toar
against us, should send to Us their helpless
toomen and children for protection?
