RATHER SANGUINE.-Making bricks without
straw was nothing IN comparison with what the
South can do in the way of glorifcaton over
disasters. The Richmond Wing says:
1--WE always believed we could whip the Yam
KEGS, and nothing has done so much to strength
en- and confirm that belief as our disasters -
Other things being equal, courage is matter
of habit. Temperament and training have much
to do with it, but habit has more. The men Of
the South arc accustomed to the use of arms,
and to the contemplation of death by the bullet
or the knife. There is no danger the Yankee
will not face for the sake of the almighty dollar.
1t is the force of drill and the hope of getting a
outhern farm of 100 acres that enable him to
fight now But the justice of the Southern
cause, the greater natural courage of the South
ern man, and the lofty motives which inspire
him, will surely tell in the long run. With
equal equipments we can always whip the Yam.
KEGS two to one. With competent direction
Southern fighting would extort the admiration
of the world"
The last sentence is rather obscure. but per.
haps the Wing meant, give them two to the
Yankees one and they can always whin.

A DESCENDING REBEL.-A letter was found
in the rebel camps at Island No. lO,-supposed
to have been written by Hon. A. M. Gentry of
Texas, which contained tho following state
ment:
" tell you, Colonel, that there is no use in
further resistance. We have neither the means
nor the men to carry on the war. Our troops
are utterly demoralized, heart.sick and home
sick. My regiment has not been paid cent in
five months. and /, who, as you know am worth
IN ordinary times hundred thousand dollars,
am obliged to borrow the price of the postage
upon this letter. How can men be expected TO
fight undcr such circumstances ?"

PROGRESS at the University-Rew Library
Bullding--Repairs.

| A great want of the University will soon bt
supplied. A building for the safe preservation
of q choice and valuable library has bcen con-
tracted for and the materials are In rapid prep
aration at the hands of Messrs. Chase " Smith
one of our most enterprlslng firms.
The library building is to be forty feet oy
sixty, two stories high ; the lower story OF IL
feet for the collections in Natural History, and
The second of l6 feet TOR the library, to be I'M
jshed with alcoves in the most approved modern
STYLE The whole will be neat, substantial
brick editice with slated root and iron caps and
stills, fronting to the West, and on u line with
the other College buildings, little distance to
the North. The building when completed with
wings, in the form of a cross, will cost some
fifteen thousand dollars. 1t is proposed now to
erect only the centre building, and to finish it SO
as to accommodate the library by the first of
August The further progress of the work will
depend upon means yet to be secured. What
is now to be expended was raised sometItAe since
by President Pease, with the addition of few
recent subscriptions.
Sufficient funds have also been secured during
the last few months to commence thorough re-
pairs in the old buildings. One division has al
ready been thoroughly overhauled, the space tor
students rooms re-distributed, so as to form
sets of rooms, each consisting of a study, bed
room, closets Tor wood and clothes, and other
conveniences. Another division will be taken
in hand next term
The hearty response to the call to put the col
lege buildings in good condition Tor the use of
students, notwithstanding the hard times, can
not but be particularly cheering to the friends

The Great English Scandal Case.

The London correspondent Oh the Detroit
Advertiser, under date of April 9Th says:
In the divorce court on Thursday last,
the suit Of the Marquis of Westmeath came
on for the dissolution of his marriage with
the Marchioness. rhe case being uDoppos.
ed by the respondent and cOrrespondent-as
the victim and her seducer are termed in
legal phraseology evidence was offered
on either side. The court was throDged
with ladies', or rather women of rank, who
came to satisfy their prurient curiosity, and
who listened with unbushng efirontery to
the various details; and also by several
rich members OF parliament, the Marquis
being on Irish peer.
The maiden name of the respondent was
Maria Jarvis, a person OF great personal
beauty and attraction, who was married to
the Marquis in 1858. The Marquis made n
liberal settlement upon her, and, notwith.
standing the great disparity of age between
them they lived happily until July, 1859,
when LADY Westmeath visited Dieppa, in
France, and contracted on intimacy with
the correspondent, Mr.. George Edward
Chapman, the son of the British consul
there, and circumstances transpired which
lett no doubt of the adultery. Ellen James,
servant to Lady Westmeath, was called and
proved the intimacy and cohabitation be-
tween Lady w. and Mr.. Chapman.
The intercepted letter which led to the
detection of the parties was read 10 court,
and was o. a warm character. She alludes
to the Marquis in it by the term Of god
Fidgety," saying he was going out Of town,
and invites Mr.. G. to call upon her, and
concludes s: Biissful dreams, darling-G God
bless you, Chickie." The jury returned q
verdict finding the adultery proven, and as.
seesing the damages against the correspon-
dent at $500. They were laid at $4,000.
This case presents another instance of May
and December, the lady being almost a
child, and the noble old gentleman with one
foot already in the grave.

The peninsula correspondent of the
Cincinnati Commercial. gives an idea of the
infuriated feelings OF our troops at the afro.
cities of the rebel soldiers
The numbering of our wounded men by the
rebels has nturiated our regiments. Several
of them held meetings this morning and furi.
ously resolved never to take prisoners. Gene
raj Franklin discussed the propriety of expos.
ing the mutilated bodies of our murdered men
to the whole army, but the order has not been
issued. l am informed the Texans gave water
to our wounded and covered them with blan-
kets, comforting them with the assurance that
their friends would soon be after them. "
But members of the Hampton LegiOn-cOm-
posed of South Carolina "gentlemen," cursed
our mangled men with bitter Oaths, boasting
that they had "cut the Threats" of sundry id
Yankees. One of our poor fellows states that
one party who cursed him were denounced by
Texans for their inhumanity, and that the con.
troversy terminated in a personal collision.
think that the Yorktown torpedoes and the
South Carolina throatcutting has excited q
passionate fury in many regiments which may
result in cruelty on the battlefield.
