Bitter Regrets.
rem the Rational Intelligencer.

From the rational Intelligencer.
Among the correspondence recently found
on board OF a captured rebel vessel was a
letter from prominent citizen of South
ern State to his wife, who is sojourning at
q distance from home. The writer OF the
letter had just returned from visit 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 all the fervor of
sincerity, and we doubt not that he expresses
the feelings and hopes of thousands of others
who, like him, dare not speak openly. The
letter is dated the 30th ultimo. He says:
"This accursed attempt of one section to
set up an independent government must,
sooner or later fail, and full igaominiously.
| am bound in duty to share in the burdens;
and to do what I may to alleviate the suffer
ings which the attempt has brought upon
those among whom | was born, but will
take no office in it--the highest would be no
iDducemept--nor will l share in the terrible
responsibility. No words can depict the
horrors which l witnessed both at Rich
mond and upon my journey there and back.
The deaths then occurring at Richmond
were fully equal to one hundred and fifty a
day. More than seventeen thousand sick
and wounded are now in the Richmond
hospitals The recent seeming success of
our arms will only serve to accelerate the
downfall Of our short-lived Confederacy."
The weekly pioneer and Democrat. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn. Territory) 1855-1865, 1862-08-22

fully, and said that the mistake was often
made.
You may be sure that | did not ask
about the father of that child nor could
l, just then, have come to any other conclu-
sion than that the system of slavery was
one that, in practice, overleaped the bounds
of domestic virtues and invaded the domains
of most infamous harlotry and amalgama-
ton. All this, too, the spirit of noble
wives must bear, and with bleeding hearts
yet smile, though beautiful slave entices
unwittingly the heart, or, at least, passions,
of her husband. Southern wives would
have no reason to deplore it if the necessi-
ties of war should grind to powder the
whole system of slavery, with its attendant
vices, provided they held martial obliga
tions as sacred as did the Roman matron.
After the above incident left, not fully
determined whether the joke was on myself
or the pretty boy.

The Last Illness of CavOur.

"Le Comte de Cavour, Recits ct Souye-
MRS." by M. William de la Rive, now in
the press at Paris. is work which will be
eagerly welcomed by every friend of Italian
liberty. 1t contains numerous unpublished
facts in the history of the great statesman,
and also an interesting narrative of Cavour's
last illness, from the pen of his niece, the
Countess Al6eri. From this narrative we
take the following passage:
cAvoUR's LAST WORDS ON ITALY AND Carl.
BALDI,
As soon as the King was gone the Count
began talking again.
"Northern Italy is made; there are now
no longer Lombards, nor Piedmontese, nor
Tuscans, nor Romagnols we are all Ital-
ians; but there are still Neapolitans. Oh,
there is much corruption in their country.
1t is not their fault, poor people; they
have been so badly governed. 1t is the
work of that scoundrel, Ferdinand. No,
no, a government so corrupt as that can
never be restored Providence cannot per-
NIT it. The thing to be done is to moral.
ize the country to educate the children and
young men, to build houses of refuge, to
found military colleges but it is not by res
Wiling the Neapolitans that we shall ina
prove them. They are always asking me
for employments, decorations, and advance
ment they must work, they must be hon.
est, and then | will give them all these
things; but above all, no misconduct must
be passed over the employee should be
above suspicion. | would have no state of
siege; none of those means which absolute
governments resort to. Anybody can gov.
ern with the state of siege. | would gov.
ern them with liberty, and l would show
what ten years of liberty could do for that
beautiful country. In twenty years they
will be the richest provinces OF Italy. No,
no state of siege, beg of you."
Garibaldi," he continued, " is an honest
man. l wish him no harm. He wants
Rome and Venice, and so do I; nobody is
more anxious about that than we are. AS
to Istria and the Tyro, that is another mat.
ter. That must be left to another genera.
ton. We have done enough for one set of
men, for we have made Italy. Si,P Italia e,
la cosa "a. And then that Germanic Con-
federation is an anomaly; it will be dissolved,
and German unity will be founded; but
there is no modifying the house of Haps.
burg. What will the Prussians do-they
are always so slow to decide ? They will
take fifty years to do what we have done in
three"
"And now while the fever of unity is
working in Europe, what curious thing it
is that America has taken it into her head
to divide. Can you understand anything of
these intestine quarrels fthe United States?
For my part, was in my youth an ardent
admirer of the Americans, but have very
much changed my opinion of them, and I
confess that what is now going on beyond
the Atlantic is perfect riddle to me-"

ThieviMg III Washington

The Washington correspondent OF the
Springfield Republico@ is responsible for the
following statement:
A few days since I CHANGED to discover
that newspaper man who stood high had
been trading in the influence of soma of the
present members of Congress and bad
made his thousands. The NJ. C's probably
know nothing Of bis work, but his relations
with them were such that be could promise
their votes with show of probability
Looking over the accounts of the Senate the
other day, | found that to one Senator
Sl,366 had been paid for a clerk to his
committee, when in fact be has had no clerk
and drew the money in the name OF an i'm.
aginary character. Another committee did
not meet twice, but the clerk, who did not
enter the committee room half dozen
times during the session, drew ST. 1868, or Sc
per day. What wonder that white>wash
ing is the order of the day when such out.
RACES upon common honesty we're rife The
war and the INDUSTRIOUS debt will drive this
kind OF respectable vilainy from high place
because the people won't endure them much
longer. 1t was only the other day that l
heard of the latest and most amusing bit of
knavery in the capital. A gentleman came
here and quietly gave out in a few circles
that he was part proprietor and associate
editor of we'll known New York newspaa
per. He was careful ,aoIere he went, but he
used the argument and with several high
functionaries of the government, the Presi-
dent among the rest, to obtain an Office.
He finally got capital Office on the
strength of the falsehood that he was con.
nected with the Office in question, and it was
not exploded till the stories of his fabrica-
tion reached the ears Of the genuine pro>
prietors and editors, when they sent word to
Washington, "Mr. So and.So has no con
nection whatever with our journal-if he
says so, be lies" Nevertheless the man
got his Office, and keeps it!
