R.teasfd on Taking the Cath.-OhArl

Released on Taking the Cath.-Oharles
Miller, German, arrested a few days since
.tu the chsrve oi dislpYAl-v $50 Feless01
Yesterday from Castle Goodwin, BY order OF
Gen. Winder, on taking the oath OF allegiance.
The fellow has wife who is a perfect SINCE
cat, and it ia no doubt to her determined and
vexatious persistence that Miller owes his
liberty. BY personally being present on sew
erAl occasions, we know that she was in tho
habit of importuning Captain Alexander, A,
sistant Provost Marshal, for his release on an
average about half dozen tunes day. She
did this on the ground that Miller was nat
ural born fool, and had not improved much by
age An evidence OF his want Of lucidity ia
found ia the fact that he declared that he
would see the Southern Confedsrscy in very
hot place before he would q ght for it, and that
when the notorious "CoI De Vilisrs' broke
his parole here, and left Richmond, he fur
nished him with a great coat to aid him in
mis- flight II is claimed by those who ought
to know, tina. Miller 10 a 'rsd- hot. abolition
is." Perhaps his red republican sosialistie
ideas may incline him that way. At any
rate, it would appear that he does not have q
very good idea Of his duties as a citizen OF
this CREST aud desirable Confsderaey.

Sent 10 Their Reg,msnts.-A number of
Confederate soldiers, some Of whom have been
confined in the Confederate States Military
Prison here, have lately been released and
cent under guard to rejoin their respective re-
giments. A batch of them started few morn
ings since tor the Peninsula A search would
no doubt reveal a number Of others cooped up
in various holes and corners, whose services
might be awaited Of in the present emergency.
The experiment is worth trying. Speaking of
delinquent soldiers, reminds us that we saw
yeste rdsy hal a dozen or more fellows padding
through Bread street under guard, the charge
against than being that they had refused to go
with their regiments when ordered off Oh
duty. Though by no means gifted with an
extensive knowledge of military affairs, it
seem. to us that little bread and water, jn-
deiously applied, might make willing if not
brave soldiers out OF such gentry.

VaraetisS-The engagement OF Mr. W aitsf
Reeve is proving very successful The house
is Gro wded every night with al enthusiastic
audience. The play of The Stranger has
seldom, if ever, been better rendered IL Rlcn-
mond than it was on "Wednesday night. We
take pleasure in saying that Mas M. johnson,
Mrs. Jennie Powell, Miss Jessie Clarke, and
Mrs. De Barr, have succeeded admirably IN
their endsavors TO please the public.
In giving utteranee TO the above we are hot
to be understood as asserting that some styles
of acting INDUCED III by the performers at the
Varieties could not DO improved, with decided
advantage to the public and ths performers
themselves While Mr.. Morton (an exceed
ingly clever actor does very well all the time,
it is not to be denied that M. Ogden, who lis
the light CON edy and general utility man OF the
corps dyGmati44s at the establishment, very
often, in Ills great anxiety to excite the r!sl-
biiities of his audience, sadly overdoes HE
part, by Juggling in antiquaisd jokes, and get
ting off bad pane They no doubt serve as
often after TIE true result ls summed up, to
bring down the actor as the house. 1t is al RI
selt, even to miscellaneous audience, TO think
that nothing is too outrageous for their en-
durance. w noticed, too, few nights since,
that this gentleman attempted the character OF
Beausasant, in the Lady Of Lyons, one entirely
ont Of his line. He wond perhaps have made
"A toIernbls CLAWS" that being in his range
of cone option and ability. In these war times,
however, criticism is out OF place. and We

Patriotic Examples.
The Lexington, Va, Gazette saws:

The Lexington, Va, Gazette says:
Col. r. H. Brown, the proprietor of the
Rockbridge Wooden Factory, has set an exam
pie worthy Of all imitation. He manufactures
an excellent article of Jeans, which he sells at
81, go and 81, IS per. yard, to consumers. He
will not sell to spectators at any price. The
goods sold at SO low a figure could not be
bought in Lynehburg at less than 81 90 or
$500
The man who can be. satisfied with mode
rate profit, when the necessities of the COM
munity would enable him to treble that profit,
deserves the lasting gratitude Of every true
hearted citizen, and deserves to be remember
ed when the war is ended.
We have also been informed that William
Withrow, Esq, Of Brownsburg, continues to
sell leather at forty Drift y cents, whilst others
are getting $500. A noble heart throbs in
his bosom.

SPECULATION arad Extortton.

The Macon Telegraph expresses our senti
ments exactly, when it says that Speculation
and Extortion are the great enemies Of thu
Confederate cause. The rage to run IN price,
is going to- ruin US if anything does. It s
impossible to over-Tate the degree of uncer
tailitv and alarm felt by the masses of the
people from this cause alone. The fact thai
everything has, within the past year, run ur
from three to twenty and thirty prices, opens
the gloomiest prospect for the future. Where
is this thing to end? If it has travelled thus
far, what is to hinder it's going twice. three
times, five times or twenty times as far in the
next year? How, tlien, can we live? Who
can do business, unless he happens to he
among the infamous crew of harpies who
boast of making their thousands out Of the
universal scarcity and distress? What. then.
is before us If things 50 on only for six months,
in the future. as they have gone for six or
eight months past ? Plainly ruin! We see
little chance Of escape from this conclusion.
and there is some comfort in the thought that
the money-malers who will have brought on
the catastrophe viii at least perish with the
rest. They have been carefully Investing
their unholy gains in real estate, stocks. &C..
but the Lincolnites will find them out. and
universal confscation will reduce everybody
to the same level Of pcnury.
The Legislature of Alabama, we see. is
trying to devise some statutory remedies for
this ruinous abuse, but We frankly confess 4
belief that the evil is beyond the reach alike
of law and public opinion. The unholy and
insatiate greed for money making seems to
render men deaf alike % the voice Of public
opinion, the calls Of patriotism, and a regard
even for sheir own safety against the common
foe. Everything that bas been said Or done,
SO far, to prevent or to remedy the mischief.
seems only to aggravate it. Every passing
day and hour add to prices, and increase the .
difficulties Of living.
1t is plain that this, and not the Yankee
armies, is the real problem of Southern in
dependence, liberty, aud security. If, as
seems but too probable, our people prefer
heaping up gains in Treasury notes, to their
own preservation from a cruel, rapacious and
foe, the great Judge himself will
and must say to such a people s.THY HONEY
PERISH win ThEE!W The Almighty is not
going to work miracles or reverse the moral
law in our behalf; and five choose to prev
upon each other, instead of standing by, as
slstng and encouraging each other to with
stand the common enemy, we must abide the !
awful consequence. Then shall repentance
,onle-but too late. Let us be subjugated IN
'hls struggle and we may envy the victims of
