INTERVENTION.

As Queen Victoria thinks it improper to
interfere in "the civil war;" in the United
States, the Yankees are turning their specu-
!atiye batteries on the Emperor Of the
French, and are giving him some very good
reasons why he should act in the premises.
He is told that an alliance offensive and de-
fensive, with the Confederacy will secure
hi,n in his possession of Mexico, and that
Lhgland will follow his example to save
Canada from Yankee invasion. If copies
Of such journals could find their way into
the Imperial loraryr more good might prob
ably be effected for us, than the large a.
mount Of gold Mr.. Memmipger's munif.

For the Yorkville Enquirer.
PRO BONO PUBLICO.

Mr.. Editor Il desire to throw out
nut for few honorable gentlemen to crack.
Why are there so many desertions from our
army? 1t is simply because there are SO
many honorable Senators, Legislators and
fiery Secessionists, who are entrencbing
themselves behind their dignity and wealth,
to escape the just claims of their country
upon their services. These poor creatures
become dishsartened, when they see these
pugnacious individuals remaining at home,
who, before the war, promised to do all the
fighting and drink all the blood. have
thrown out the nut and cracked it for this
honorable class of persons. 1 have made a
shoe, which will fit some persons as neatly
as ever shoe did, made by so poor cobbler
as myself. If there be those. who think
the shoe will fit them, they can find out the
cobbler by applying at the "Enquirer" Of

The Charleston Mercury says: =
Gen. Beauregard has recentlyurged the
departure of all non. com batants from. Char
lesion, and prohibited the gingresssof any
more, There should be no mistake con-
cerning his views, either as tothe imminen-
cy of the danger at this point, or as. to the
character of the defence that he illrmake.
Let it be distinctly understood By every
body that Charleston is to be defended TO
the last extremity. If theharbor is taken,
the city is to be fought street by street, and
house by house, as long as we have afoot
of ground to stand upon.
1t is high time that public attention
should be directed to this subject. We
were pleased to learn that the gentlemen
composing the commission met yesterday
We trust that in their efforts to make
Charleston ready forthwith to stand shelliDg,
they will have the, cooperation and assis-
tauoe Of our entire population. Nothing
could stay US and the country, in the event
of its fall, but the most heroic and devoted
exertions; nothing can save Charleston but
desperate defence. One and ALL, let uS
bestir ourselves, and make readyatonce for
the rapidly approaching struggle Let
none be caught mapping, and obstacles
be thrown in the way of our military au-
thorities.

THE MILITARY.

It will be seen that Gen.J. H. Williams,
of-Newberry, has been elected Colonel, and
Messrs John \. Bradley, of Chester, Lieut..
Colonel, and Luciau P. Sadler, of York,
Major, of the 5th Regiment of S. Carolina
Militia, in which are the York Companies.
The first named gentleman has seen service
in Mexico, where he gained distinction,
while the Others have been long connected
with the military of the State, in their pres
ent positions Possessed of such qualifica:
tions, with the high toned prestige of Caro-
lima gentlemen, they will doubtless secure
the bes. discipline and regard of their com-
mand, both in and out of action.

HOME DEFENCE.

when committee was appointed to obtain
members. We deem it unnecessary to ap-

oat unanimously, and notsoniy getup, but
keep up by regular system of drill and
exercise, so important an adjanct to the ef-
fective militia We have all the arms and

will be held on Saturday evening next,
when general attendance Of all concerned
is requested, to effect en- organization.

NEWS FROM. THE IsLANDs.-During
Thursday. night, continued fire was kept
up between the land batteries, and at,inter-
walls became very rapid and heavy. On
Friday morning, the enemy freda few shell
at Fort Sumter from the two mortar hulks
which they have grounded on the beach,
opposite their nearest battery to Fort Wag:
ner. The shell, however, fell far short Of
the mark. After this exhibition, the enc,
my remained quiet the rest Of the day,
our side still sending them an occasional
shell from Battery Simkins. About 81
o'clock last night, another fierce cannonade
opened between batteries Gregg and Wag-
ner. and, the Yankee batteries on Craig Hill.
This firing was,uuusually rapid. 1t was re-
ported that Battery Wagner gave the enemy
the benefit of some new guns of beaver
calibre, the fire from which is believed to
have been very effectual. The caunonading
was still going on with some rapidity at the
hour of writing, viz IL o'clock at night.
We could hear Of no casualties.

DAY OF FASTING AND PRAYER.

Friday next, the 21st instant has been
set apart by the President of the Confeder-
ate States, as day of "fast;ng, humiliation
and prayer" in which he invites the entire
people to repair to their respective places of
worship, and unite in supplication for the
favor and protection of that God who has
hitherto conducted US safely through all our
dangers. "It is meet" says. Mr.. Davis,
that "when trials and reverSes befal US, we
should take home TO our hearts and con-
sciences the lessons which they teach, and
profit by the self-examipation for which they
prepare US" We hope the call will be u
Universally responded to, and that our peo-
pie will strictly unite on the occasion.-
Let US devote one day to heartfelt invoca-
tion for His blessing, without whom there
is no success-let US pray for our wounded
soldiers and suffering country; and He will
nerve our arms when the conflict comes,
and under His Providence the blessings Of
Security and Peace may yet be ours. Let
the day and the OCCASION be strictly observ-
ed. 20
We have since been informed, by the
Rev. Mr. Wood, that there will be divine
service in the several churches ofthis town,

pondent of a Southern paper says:
Substitutes are beginning to command q
large price. This mornipg s-man offers to
sell himself for $4,000, and another: offers
81, 500 for man to take his place in an ar.
tillery company. This substitute system
ought to be stopped, as it has already done
much mischief in our army. From records
kept in the Adjutaut Generals Office, we
learn that there have been received there
sirty thousand substitutes, in the place of
an equal number of able bodied men, ca
pabIe of beaaing' arms. Had these sixty
thousand men been with Lee at Gettysburg,
We should have had treaty Of peace in
progress before this. I am confident Con-
gress, when it meets again, will take the
matter in hand, and will put in the ranks
all men able to do military duty whether
they have procured exemption by substitute
or otherwise The necessities of the couu-

property but his, person to the cause.
