BITTER REeRErs.-Among the cor

from a prominent citizen Il Southern
State to his wife, who Is sojoutning at
distance from home. The writer of
the letter had just returned from a vis-
It Of week or two at Richmond, and
was writing bis wife what he saw there.
The bitterness with which he condemns
the rebellion and bewails the misery
and desolation of his once happy and
prosperous section Of the Union, Is
poured out with al the fervor Of sim
cerity, and we doubt not that he ex-
presses the feelings and hopes Of thou.
sands Of others who. like him. dare not
speak openly. The letter is dated the
30th ultimo. He says: .
"This sccursed attempt Of one sec

Mr.. Martin was on his way to An.
napolis. to attend the sssises. A soli-
iary passenger was in the stage with
him. and, as the weather was extreme
ly cold, the passengers soon resorted to
conversation TO divert themselves from
too much sensibility to the inclement
air. The young man knew Martin BY
sight, and As he was also lawyer. the
thread Of the talk soon began TO spin

fact is that in the old Society the mothers got

is that so few of the residences in Cedar

the patriotic females, both old and young,
land the escorts for the latter who weekly
find their way to attend to the wants of the
brave ones on the field. But who believes it?
Wel-we do. There isn't that house in
town that will accommodate the old and the
young folks at such a gathering. The one
class wish to do their work and 20 home bv
10; the other wish to do their work and go
home when they get ready. Then again the
old folks tattle so about who came with who,
and who went home with who; and, worse
than this, they believe in being dignifcd and
talking about the weather to the'cxclusion Of
topics of far greater interest. Considering all
the facts we believe secession was perfectly
justiliabc in this case.
