 as in state of agitation and terror. The fair grounds are used for camps. Every one capable of bearing arms is being impressed into the ser vice. Men are even dragged from their beds.
 The proclamation of the Mayor, in regard to burning the city, has no influence. A majority. military officers, decided, at a meeting held a fortnight ago, to burn the city when they evacu-S ate, in spite of the Mayor. E. s
 There are no Qualifications at Memphis.
 E The news of the bsttle at Pea Ridge caused great depression. Federal gunboats are expect ed daily. '"+@
 At Memphis and at other large points-even at New Orleans-there is considerable Union feeling, and Southern papers do not represent the feelings of the mass of the people, as they. as well as everything else, are under the control of politicians and the military. - .ss .t The report that the South is we'll supplied with provisions is absurd. They have not stock enough on hand to last six months. Clothing, confidence is felt in Southern currency, Southern politicians, or Southern military leaders.

 In Honduras, invalids afflicted with ScrofuIa visit the streams that have drained from the wild lands where SarsapasiIla grows. Itis found that the waters become impregnated with the medicinal virtues of this dsug, and the natives drink it. bahe in it, and live on it for weeks N hhateversits effects these :" ,cdteriMg phlces'' have reputation no. inferior to our own Sara toga, and Great numbers surely obtain relief at them from the eruptipns, alterations, and sores, which are so atf1icting always to halfcivilized people. Yet I find all classes have more conf dence in Dr. Ayers Extract of Sarsaparia, than in the inpregnated waters or any compound off tine root that they can make. Those who can afford to buy 1t, do so, and it is in very general use here, curing them surer and quicker than they can get relief without it. Not few of our1 staple products go thus to foreign lands, are there manipulated by scientific or artisan skill, and then come back for our consumption and use.-C Correspondence of the Herald from 1rur- iNo. .......T - 1-.'

 If the South had known what would have been the result of secession, no State,. unless South Carolina, would have gone out of the Union We all thought we could go out in peace I know did, and laughed at the idea of the North attempting to keep us. in the Union by force of arms. It was not possible, we said. We had too many friends in the free States"
