New USE FOR BUGGIEs.-Wo learn
that on Sunday, the ID instant, the citi-
zens Of Selma were thrown into the great,
est excitement by reason Of report, which
reached there in the afternoon, to the cfec,
that a large force Of Yankees were, perhaps
evon then, en- route for the purpose OF
destroying the Government works and
laying waste the private property of indi-
viduals. A company was soon formed and
in short time, the usually quiet city pre-
senfe1 quite a martial appearance.
During the organization of the company
the question of arms, ammunition, ETC.,
was being discussed, when an old gentle
man, very much excited, and towering n
head and shoulders above the crowd, ex.
claimed in stentorian voice;
Saint there no caau u,ns to defend the
ci,y?'

THE WAR POPULAR At TIE NoarH.-
A gentleman Of this city, just returned
from the manufacturing districts of the
N.rth, says the people have no wish to see
the war ended. All are making money
by contracts, working night and day, and
are willing to pay $500. for substitutes out
Of their profits. Manufacturers make no
complaint Of their taxes. They do not
feel any Of the horrors Of war, and care
nothing about. it. Several are engaged
largely in making cotton cards and 6ther
articles necessary for us, which they ship

We think it would be we'll for one

to bring this matter to the notice Of
the town authorities from the fire.
quency of complaints made in refer
ence to it.
