Wall from the RebeIs.

The following article from the Charleston
Courier, a paper which was much less anx-
ious to enter upon the sea of war than its
cotemporary, The Mercury, when the long
sown seeds of the rebellion first began to
sprout in the hot-bed Of treason, shows the
depth of the misery brought upon the
Southern States
aThe continuance of this contest in
wolves increased suffering. The evils that
follow in the train of this calamitous Wis
itation grow more direful with every day.
Other hearts than those aching with ankle
ty and bleeding from bereavement are rent
with grief, and the friend who sympathized
with some afflicted one yesterday, to-day
Weeps bitter tears from his own SORROW
The iron is driven the deeper, and our bur-
den is become more and more heavy. And
though more than eighteen months have
passed away since the strife begun, the
end seems more distant than it appeared to
be atwelve-month since. Hope after hope
has gone out in darkness, and expecta-
tions we had fondly cherished have turned
out to be miserable delusions. So often
have we been disappointed and deceived,
that now our faith rejects every promise
and turns away from every sign. Our foe
is az active and determined and powerful
as ever he was, and the agent that was to
compel foreign nations to intervene and
put an end to this wicked and infamous
contest, has not been potent enough to ac-
complish that end.
" We stand alone. Vast hosts are mus
tering to repeatin stronger force and with
moro obstinate courage the attempts that
have been made; stronghOlds hitherto unat-
lacked will soon have TO bear the most fu-
rious Onslaughts the enemy, with his won
derful resources of ingenuity and material,
is capable of making. To frustrate his
well-conceived plans, to repel these terri
bic attacks, we have to depend entirely
upon ourselves. The foe will do his ut
most; military genius and knowledge, the
boundless credit of he Government, the
best mechanical skill--mind, money, mus
cle-have all combined to insure success
"And while these tremendous efforts are
being put forth-while our homes are
darkened by the shadow of the death an
anguish-while we are enduring grievous
privations and hardships, and our soldiers
are almost naked, we stand alone.
1t is true foreign tongues mention
our name with respect and admiration. 1t
is true our fortitude and gallantry have
received abundant reward in glowing
words of praise and in warm heartfelt
wishes for success. But sympathy and ad-
miration have afforded no substantial as
sistance, and all unaided we brace our
nerves for the dreadful conflict"

The New York papers give full reports
Of the Thanksgiving liscourses, incidents,
amusements, Sc. Ttshceountc Of the latter
by the Tribu4ss reparler, redOlent of the
Aroma of the royal Bird which had graeed
the Thanksgiving tables. Every notice Of
the Theater has an sIIusion which suggests
FHEl1ey to the esensuous mind. For in
stance, in speaking of the evenings en-
tertainment at Wallack's, he says:
3 FlIhs psfformance at the latter theater
was remarkable for the fact that for once
the swans in the closing scenes were re-
garded with feelings apparently of COM
passion, rather than the Wonted admira-
ton. If we rightly translated the pre-
vailing sentiment, it was that Swans, how
ever ornamental and decorative their
functions, are yet vanities. They have no
destiny. Their names is not indissolubly
associated in the American mind with a
great social festival. They are not the
stars Of domestic drama Their path of
glory leads not to the gravy Another
night and they will doubtless float again in
the security Of their accustomed dignity"
The soldiers who were in the New York
hospitals on that day were remembered by
the generous-hearted women, and sump-
tuOus Thanksgiving dinners were freely
given to all. None of them had occasion,
like Oliver Twist, to ask for "more. -
Abundant dinners were furnished to the
Howard Mission and Home for little Wan
derers, the Ladies' Five Points Mission, the
Five Points House of Industry, the Ran
dali Island Nurseries for children, and the
new Jail for Debtors.

New York ThanksgivinE Discourses.

New York Thanksgiving Discourses.
The discOurses Of the principal clergy
men of New York are reported in the jour
mails of that city. Itis noticeable, but not
strange that the burden of their thanks
was the prospective redemption Of the
country from the scOurge of slavery. Ten
years ago "pOlitics in the pulpit" was the
subject Of intemperate and angry discus
sion, hut the progress of events has made
the great national questions of policy to be
the one, which it is the daily duty of the
ministers of God to elucidate, and has
weaned the people from their morbid sensi-
tiveness at any sllusion to the " "institu-
ton" And to this very deliverance from
the thraldOm of error we find cause for
general Thanksgiving. It is the bright
ming Of the skies at the dawn of new day
the opening of the minds Of men to the
reception of truths which will make them
nobler and better. The entrance ofknowl-
edge is the signal for the departure of evil,
and when men will attentively listen to a
criticism of the evils of slavery, they are
already upon the road to a remuneration of
its heresies.

LnLe News from Port Roynl.

By the arrival of the transport Della
ware at New York, we have Port Royal
dates to the 25th ultimo. The fever pre-
vailing for some time at Port Royal had
entirely ceased The health of the troops
was improving fast, and the physical con-
ditiOn of the army very fine The arrival
Of reinforcements was most anxiously
looked for, as all are anxious for an ad-
vance. General Brannan is still in COM
mand of all the forces. General Saxton is
raising negro brigade with considerable
success. Private Lunt, Of the Ninth
Maine Volunteers, was. to be shot Deem

Governor salOmon of Wisconsin has hit
upon very happy expedient for relieving
msny-perhaps all-Of those cases where
the draft has fallen with especial hardship,
In almost every county there are instances
where families have already furnished one
or more volunteers for the war, and where
the only remaining member capable Of
bearing arms has been drafted. There are
other cases of poor men with large fami-
lies, who are unable 10 procure a substi-
tute, and who cannot go without leaving
their wives and children dependent, in a
measure, upon public charity. The Gov
ernor proposes to remedy this by appoint
ing the regimental and company officers
of the drafted regiments from men who
will volunteer as substitutes for those men
upon whom the draft falls with peculiar
hardship.

There is every indication that the deadly

on the banks Of the RappahannOck. The
% Potomac and the James saw hard battles

win have heavier tide Of blood to bear to
the ocean than either Of its sister streams.
The tive armies are mnssed in immense
~ ga force and must fight.
Various rumors have reached the public
as to q flank movement intended to Obviate
the necessity of crossing the river at Fred
erieksburg. OF such move the Cincinnati
--i''ss Commercial says:
stsa ave have reason to believe, from intel
hgence received through private sources,
9 e hat an important strategic movement,
sss-l for the development of which the army has
remained inactive before Fredericksburg,
ssf7''a has failed owing to the recent rains and
,.,.,.y impassability Of the roads. The character
