.CHAR1rARLE SUPPLIES FOR THE ARMY.-The peo-
pie in the cotton States very actively discussing
plans of charitable supplies for the army. An ap-
peal recently made on this subject by Vice Pres
ident Stephens in speech to the people Of Geor-
gia The plan which he suggested was, for the'p peo
diers and in doing so for each contributor to select
particular soldiers for whom he should undertake
to provide, until every soldier from the county should
have somebody at home to whom he could look with
confidence for the supply Of all his necessaries II
purchasing cloth and other materials, the people
might act through some common agent, but each
contributor should personally to it that provision
was made for the particular soldiers under his care
and then the articles should be sent to the army and
delivered into the very hands for whom they are in
tended by some agent of the peoples own selection
for that particular purpose The result would be
that every soldier would have somebody at home to
stand sponsor for all his wants.

ABsENTEEs FROM THE ARYY.

General D. b. Hill has called for the names of all
officers who have been sent from their regiments an
unusual length Of time in order that they may be
recommended to be dropped. Charges are to be
satisfactory proof Of the necessity for their prolong
ed absence from duty.
1t is well that some very stringent measures
should be adopted to remedy the crying evil which
Dhas long existed in relation to this matter for the
soldier who has been sick and tasted the comforts of
home once moe, reluctantly leaves that homestead
roof with its winning ones for the cheerless tent or
quits the dainty fare prepared by gentle hands to
resume the hard and stinted soldiers rations.-
Woman, with kind and gentle hand, is ever watch.
inl of the soldiers cares and pains and wants. Our
hospitals would be as cherries without them as
without the sunlight, and oh how much more sooth-
ing is the female hand than the rough kindness of
man: There is an Eastern fable which says that a
maidens tears, falling the lips Of dead soldier
recalled him to life We cannot tell all the good of
Kindness in time of need, any more than We can :.
reckon the power of tears. An unknown writer
beautifully says that the brightest jewel that ever
adorned a woinan-brighter than diamonds the
tear that sparkles on her cheek for others woes.
Farther reaching than those of the diamond, its
flashing rays are seen in Heaven.
And no wonder that the soldier sadly leaves such
as these to return to the camp Yet they must
return and that promptly, else our army will dwin-
die away.
But our authorities must have care lest in seek
ing to avoid Scylla they fall into CharybAis They
must not, as the writer has seen, drag from their
homes convalescent patients, who have risen from
beo If fever, and by supporting their palsied limbs
on staff manage to step to the door of their dwell
ling their bedroom; they must not force to carry
musket those who can scarcely bear the morning
breeze We could, if were necessary, cite dozen
instances where convalescent soldiers were taken
from home in the field vrhop ton fo
mile and in fews days would suffer a relapse and
be sent back in worse condition than at first, and
several Of the cases never recovered
Let US then be viglant the duties of the SOL
dier but be careful lest in eagerness to do good We
do harm.-Rich. Examiner.

The STREETS AT OUR WESTERN QEpor-The mud
dy season is approaching, when, unless something
is done to prevent it. the streets at the Western de-
pot, near this City, will be almost mpassable.-
One of the Streets too, at this depot is frequently
blocked up with cars, thus preventing the passage
Of vehicles. We believe it is the duty of the Rail-
road companies to keep these streets open and in
good condition. We have been requested by seve-
raj of our citizens to call the attention Of the au-
.thorities of the Roads to the subject
We trust also that the Roads will speedily con-
struct passenger shed at the depot Such a
building IS much needed.

TIE RlGur SrAMP.-In the midst of the spirit of
extorton and-avarce in the land it is refreshing to
meet-with a man or woman nowadays who rises
above this spirit, and 'lives to let live" There
are few such to be found. They remind one of
the oases in the desert
We learn that our old friend Harrison, Parker,
of Red Mountain District, Orange County, who is
tanner, has never yet sold sole leather for more
than 30 cents per pound upper leather for more
than 81 per side He does not make leather, how
ever, for the SPECTATORS but for his neghbors and
friends. Such men can be relied upon when the
pinch comes.

The Ladies.


The ladies' throughout this war have proven them
selves the unwaverng friends Of the soldiers of the
Confederacy. But for. them, their suiferings must
have been beyond endurance:
We learn that the 1sdes of Greensboro and Hills
boro every day found upon the trains passing to
different points relieving the soldiers. Why may
not the ladies of other towns initiate their excellent
example?
Surgeon General Warren we learn, has deter
mined to establish Way Side Hospital at this place
the Central Depot, and the ladies of the City
arc busy engaged in aiding HIM to raise the funds.
We urged the necessity of this than year ago.
While on this subject we cannot omit to mention
the ndefatgable labors of Mrs. U. B. Clarke CT this
City, who for months, almost alone, has been visit
ing the hospitals at the Fair Grounds and at the Peace
Institute, working for the corporal and spi1Udal
good of the soldier, distributing tracts, papers,
books, and advising and comforting them in their
distress. Mr.. Crowder has also devoted much time
to them. Perhaps the clergy of the City have done
so frequently, but if they have We have not heard
of it. Cannot other pious ladies and the cergymen
take share in this noble work? There is work
for all.

1t is probable that some additional legislation may be

TIE SICK AND WcuSDED.-There are large num-
bers of sick and wounded soldiers constantly trav-
cling on the Railroads to their homes. In changing
cars they find it difficult to obtain good seats, on
account of the rush Of other passengers. We have
seen this sefshness On the part of passengers 1--WE
do not, of course, include lades) at the depot in
this City-healthy, ab'e-boded men running to Sc
cure seats, while the sick and the wounded hobbe
along in the rear, unnoticed and uncared for. This
should not be- 1t is shame to our patriotism and
manhood The Railroad companies should see to it
that our sick and wounded soldiers have good seats
in the cars, and that they not crowded by 9TH

their health, or received wounds in the service OF
the country, not only entitled to our gratitude
but they should receive more attention, as they
really deserve it, than the proudest and most opu-

AT other periods of the war the Southern mind
has felt the pressure of the situation most serious
ly, but the valor of our troors and the determine
ton of the people to sustain them have removed
the cloud ever and anon, and victory crowned our
efforts. Atno time have we regarded the war as .
small matter. Reasoning from facts, we have been
confident that the accomplishment of the ends and
aims OF the South could only be effected by the
most consummate wisdom and prudence in the man
agement Of our affairs, the highest skill the part
OF our commanders, the most unAlnching and super
human valor and determination of our troops and
by the most unselfsh and overfowing benevolence
and patriotism of our people. Of the skill of many
OF our Generals and the valor of our men, the
worli scarcely produces parallel Neither the
government nor the people have lacked the will to
do, but the manner in which our affairs have been
conducted has not always indicated such wisdom
and forecast as the case demanded. !
The crisis in this for veal or woe to the South
is evidently approaching. No earthly doubt can.
exist in any mind of the purpose of the North to
subjugate our people, destroy slavery root and
branch, and to'beggar the South, if its myriads of
soldiers, immense army and naval resources, and
Its hellish hate can accomplish it. At all points
East and West North and South-our brave troops
must bare their bosoms to at least three O. four
times their number. The North has proven its
disposition and its ability to fight yet it must be
admitted that in no instance have they shown them
selves our equals, with equal Numbers, except when
our men have been led by blunderng commanders.
We can whip the Yankees in equal or superior
numbers, all things else being equal; but that is
quite different thing to whipping the North into
peace with u.s. andan acknowledgment of our rights.
With power which raise 400, 900 men and clohe
and feed them with more ease than We can 100 900,
it is Herculean task cope. Yet it can be done if
added to wisdom in council unprecedented valor, and
and united heart and purpose Providence fights for
u.s. God has most clearly and marveousy sustained
our army in many instances but that God is wholly
on our side and fights for always, who can prove?
Were We alUays in the right-were the authorities
always wise and true men.-were our commanders
all pure remen-did not extorton, and speculation, and
crime, and high handed wickcdness fill the land,
then might We claim God to be always on our side
But what is the case? Injustice, selhshness un-
holy ambition, intempyance, profanity lust, and
the vilest spirit of extorton and avarice which
disgraced people, fill the land. The North is no
bettsr,-indced, may be thousand fold worse
What then: Can God be always on either side?-

ID Whereas, We have heard with profound regret

whose pure and unsullicd life, profound ability and
manly virtues, won him numerous admirers among
all who knew him. has been removed from among

to Ills will yet we can but express our heartfelt
sorrow at our great loss, which deprves lis of one
so gifted generous and so fearless and our cause

consolation in the reflection, that he died martyr
in defence of that South which be devotedy cherish
ed, and in upholding Those principles OF freedom,
which are sought to be wrested from us by tyranny
and usurpation and the patriot soldier ask for
no death glorious, than received in defence
of so sacred a cause.
Resolued, That while we would not obtrude upon
the deep distress of his sorey afflicted family, yet
we reqaest to lie permitted to mngle our tears with
THEIRS and to assure them that sincerely sympa-
thise with them in their deep affliction

is perhaps still resting in front of the Yankee lines
bu. strong force, we learn from private sources,
has fallen back to Culpepper, to prevent any ad-
vance upon Richmond in that direction. General
Stuart, with asnail force Of cavalry, surprised COL
Bavards camp near Leesburg on Sunday last, and
took the eaca=pment and seventy one prisoners.
We have no sslvices Of the movements of the en-
e,ny about Suffo.k, though an advance from that
noint is daily expected 1t will be seen by another
article that the enemy in strong force is preparing
10 advance upon the Wilmington and Weldon Rail
Road
There .rc indications that Charleston, Sasannah
and Mobile will soon be attacked. We observe that
Gen. Co5bs Brigade. has been ordered from Vir-
gnia to reinforce Gen. Beauregard.
From the West we learn that the enemy has
been strongly ye-inforced at Cornth. Abont 80
ladies, heads of families, have been ordered from
Memphis By the Yankees VINO have friends in the
Confederate army, in retaliation for the attacks
made upon Yankee steamers on the Mississippi.
We have no direct news from Gen. Bragg's army.
Yankee accounts say that he is advancing upon
Nashville, but the Yankees declare their purpose to
destroy Nashville before giving it up. The Conied
crate citizens there are suffering severely.
