Ny Dear Sir: I have just returned from

and this number is to increased Immediate
ly to one thousand. I and some Of the SIS
ters of Mercy, from Charleston, have been
in charge of this hospital white Sulphur
Springs, Montgomery county, Virginia. J
for nearly year past. Suffering has been
great; the soldiers have, in a great many
instances, been without clothing, shoes,
under.shirts, &c. Delicaciesf for the sick
are. constantly 10 demand and very, scarce.
L have returned to South Carolina in order
to solicit aid for the suffering soldiers in
this hospital. They have suffered much
heretofore they will be exposed;to much
more suffering aud privatious during the
cold and winter months coming. South
Carolina has many sons in this hospital
they have right to the consideration aud
liberality of the people at home, and claim
it through your columns. Please state the
wants of the poor suffering soldiers, and
call on the people for shoes, stockings and
clothing for them. = Mrs. Bauskets, Mrs.

The SOUTH CONQUERED BY SpEcULA-

government does notsput stop to the ex-
tortion and speoulationikof the country, We
shall be a conquered people in less; than
six months. Flour at s25 to $40, corn at
at So to $40, per barrel, bacon at DO to 50
cents, salt at $40 per bushel, cotton cloth
at Is cents, eggs at 40 cents, butterzat IS
cents, shoes at. sl0to $40 .. What can
hinderthe ruin of the South, at these prices,
but special iuterposition Of Divine Prov.
dence ?-Ralctgh Standard. -,,-', -
Itis an everlasting shame that while one
portion of our people are off in the army
fighting and suffering for the cause of the
South, another is at home speculating on
the necessariesof life, and helpingto starve
the wives and children of 4our soldiers, and
making it a bard matter for poor people to
live. We hope Gov. Vance will order ev-
cry man into the. army who is specializing
in eatables, no matter what his age Is or
how exempted. IF the Governor will take
the responsibility Of fsuppresslng speculation
in food, every patriot will sustain him. -,

ST. PAUL, September l5.-The horrors
of the present Indian war are uneeasing.-
1t is without precedent. Over 500: 'des-
titute refugees are now in the city, depend
ent upon the citizens. There are more
than the above at St. Peter, and many are
leaving for Illinois, going in every boat.
One woman died here yesterday from
wounds of fourteen buckshot Of her sew.

and four were murdered in their mothers
sight. The two remaining were tomahakwed
aud left for dead An Indian shows his
dislike to capture children by gouging their
eyes out with sharp instrument, or chop
ping the fingers from their hands. There
are many such iustances-a few now in this
city.

would be properly supported in the attempt,
or lert, unarmed and unorganized, to pay
the penalty of an abortive effort. We all
know that to make such an effort and fail,
would be, inevitably, to bring down upon
them the redoubled vengeance of their ty
rants, to consign their leaders to dungeons,
to devote their property to coufscation, and
to subject their mothers, wives and daugh-
ters to the same brutal outrages which have
marked the career of the Goddess invader
from the Peninsula of Virginia to the banks
of the Mississippi. Would Virginia o.
any other Southern State have entered up.
on this revolution without the belief that
the whole power of the Confederate Gov
erumeut would be exerted to protect its
citizens? And yet, Virginia and every
other Southern State is quite willing to ac-
cept the hazards and calamities of war so
that, should it be required by military ne
cessity, that a part or even the whole Of
any one State should be temporarily aban
doped in order to secure the triumph of
ALL, no patriotic State would shrink from
the sacrifice, however terrible: We find
this illustrated in the revolution of l776.
I can entertain no doubt that Maryland
would be as willing to submit to such an
ordeal as any State South of the Potomac.
All that she asks is, to be set freesand ad-
United into the Southern Confederacy.-
She wants such an occupation Of her soil
by the Southern army, and for such rea-
sorable length of time as will enable her
people to dissolve their connection with the
Federal Government, obtain admission into
the Southern Confederacy, and arm and
organize her quota of the Confederate army.
I cannot say, in advance Of events, what
length of time would be required for this
purpose but, from my knowledge of the
zeal and determination of the people. am
sure that they will accomplish it within a
very brief period, if they are effectually
relieved from the pressure of Federal pow
cr. The proclamation of the Commanding
General has rendered that relief and | con-
fdeutly believe that he will yet afford it,
with The blessing Of Almighty God.
I hope that the press friendly to Mary.
land will publish this feeble but heartfelt
appeal for her down-trodden children, and
that she may have the sympathy Of all her
Southern brethren.
Respectfully, E. Louis LOWE.

about $500 of our men, captured by the

Most # them, before they were started

Yesterday, large train, loaded down with

these brave men,. They had been so badly
treated by their inhuman captors, but few
were in condition to make a speedy journey

GS- The Northern files, received at this
Office SO late as October the fourth, exhibit
one feature OF remarka Bile signi6cance-the
cautious and timorous, but very marked
dissatisfaction and uneasness relative to
Lincoln's proclamation of abolition. Such
journals as the New York Herald, which
have no theory or principle to advocate,
and neither care nor aim at anything fur
ther than to keep with public opinion,
manifest this tendency with as much dis
tinctness as they dare. Afraid to say their
mind on the proclamation. those journals
continue their diatribes against the Aboli-
tionists, when such discourse is nothing
more than opposition to the Government
Our own reports of the proceedings in
the Confederate Congress, the resolutions
and speeches of the members GA Lincoln's
proclamation, are transferred entire to their
columns. Whole pages are filled with such
matter. The Herald enters with great vlo'
lence into tho Gubernatorial election of N.
York; and apprises its readers that if
Waisworth the head man of tho aduinis-
tration and emancipation party, is elected,
the people may expect an endless c"1sin"-
ance of the war WITH the South. These ia
dications seem to Us the shador' of cHus-

The Exemption Bill as passed bv Con-
PreSS.

The Exemption Bill as passed bv Con-
gress.
The Exemption Bill has finally passed
both houses of Congress, and awaits only
the Presidents signature to become law.
We publish itin full to-day. Since its
passage by the Senate originally, it has un-
dergone several important notifications,
prominent among which is proviso ex-
empting certain manufacturers and mechan-
les, and all employed by them, on condition
that they shall not exact a profit exceeding
Serenty :fve per cent. upon the cost of pro.
duction. This affords an ample margin for
profit, it is true, but as some manufacturers
are realizing at least two and three hun
dred per cent, the effect upon this class of
extortioners will be beneficial. Let every
body keep sharp look out for the Shylocks
to prevent evasions of this wholesome law.
The bill cxcmpts Postmasters appointed
by the President, and their clerks; all
persons certified upon oath to be indispen-
sable to the publication Of any newspaper ;
physicians, preachers, religious non.com.
batants, of certain sects, who will pay tax
Of 5000; stock raisers, etc.
All the House amendments were iucor.
porated in the bill as adopted by that body,
or modified by the Conference Committee,
except one, exempting one son Of every
widow who has sole charge of the widow
farm, etc, for her support. The Senate
Committee opposed this amendment, and
tit was stricken out Of the bill! on the ground
that all the exemptions provided for were
pro 5o"" puJiico, and not for the benefit of
particular individuals. For the same reason,
the important clause relative to the police
Of plantations was rctained.-PctcrsLurJ
