SrRAWBEART FEsTIvAL.-We would cali
the attention Of our readers to the Strawberry
Festival, to be held at Chapin's Hall, on
Thursday afternoon and evening, BY the
ladies Of the Stone Church. The object is to
make beginning, at least, for strangers
home in this city. There have been Of late
frsqusntinstances in which worthy and Chris
tan women have eOms among rs IN extreme
destitution, and sometimes with little chill
drsn dependent on them. The disturbed
state of the country is making such cases
common, and they need to be met not by
mere public charity, nor by the severe tests
which men are apt to apply, but by the gen
tie and vet sagacious tact of Womanly deal
ing. Several such instances have been
brought to the notice Of the Ladies' Society
of the Stone Church, an organization which
has for many years been busy among the
poor and the need having become obvious
Of some place where sueh suffering now
eOmers and their children can be Temporarily
lodged, their character proved, and them
selves nut in the way of self support, the
ladies Of the Stone Church have decided TO
hold this festival, in the hope of raising
fund with which to begin this work of mercy
They need Immediately the means with which
to rent or secure place whore they can re-
esive and help strangers, such as have been
referred to, not pernanently, but long
enough to give them a start, if they deserve
it, in respectable employment. NoPrOvision
for such an exigency exists among US at pre-
sent, and it is hoped that many of our citi-
zens will favor and aid this endsaYOr.
Persons who have fruit, flowers, or mater
ials for the tables, which they would like t.
give, may send them to Chapin's Hall at any
time after eight o'clock on Thursday morn
ing.
We understand that Judge Wilson bal
kindly offered the use of the grounds an'
cottage, at FOrestown, for picnic on Fri
dav afternoon the avails to go TO the OBJ
ieot above explained. of this picnic, nOtie'
will be given hereafter.

TuE CASTLES HEIR. By Mrs. HENRY
WooD.-WeH do we remember the seathing
rebuke that fell upon rs from reading old
lady, when once we Vontursd on the rash as
sertion that woman could not be first
class writer. We shall not dare to say so
now, and can advise those who are fond OF
the "Lady Jane" and " UdOlPhO " style
Of noveI,-and we know many estimable Peo-
ple who are,-that the "Castle's Heir +" is
moderate sample of that school. Mrs. Henry
Wood has done much in literary way, and
her productions, T" Verner's Pride" EarFs
Heirs" " Squire Trevlyn's Heir" " Life

fessional novel readers. The book is pub

DR.. HINEs.-We made brief mention
yesterday, of the appearance in this city of
DR.. Hines, the artful, plausible, notorious
swindler and sooundrel, whose rascally ex.
ploits have been from time to time recorded
in the public prints of the country. We
learn that his presence in Montgomery was
a compulsory one, as he had been arrested
in Mississippi by the military authorities
and was being conducted to Richmond, but
upon what charge we are not advised.
DR.. Hines called at our Office on Wed.
uesday last and introduced himself as Col.
Dorset Hamilton, who over four years ago,
happened to travel on the:same boats We did
from New Orleans to Montgomery. We
did not suspect his true character at that
time, nor until some twoReeks later he was
published as a swindler in an Augusta pa
per, and description of his person given.
A short time afterwards he was arrested iu
Memphis,upon some charge Of rascality and
sent to the Nashville penitentiary for three
years.
On the boat from Mobile to Montgomery
the old fellow seemed to be faYorite with
all the passengers he became acquainted
with. He had money, and expended it
freely. In fact, he seemed to be very rich.
Said be had plantation on Santee River,
in South Carolina, had residence in Char
lesion, where he passed the most of his
winter months, with an only child, a daugh-
ter 13 years of age, and that he had just
been out to his plantation 10 the West,
where be was obliged to 60 once a year to
look after his interests.
We might pursue this subject further,
but we only intended to guard the public
against q man who is dsngerous. If he is
allowed any freedom in Richmond, some
body will be swindled. montgomery Mail.

General Orders, No. 8.
The Department Commander returns bis
heartfelt thanks to the troops under his
command for their courage in battle, patient
endurance oit long fatiguing marches in the
cold and wet, for their vigilance duty,
aud uniform, good behavior every where
Unlike the rascally Yankees, you have pro.
tected private property, and no depradations
have been committed, except in a few iu-
stances by the 25th N. G. Regiment. Tits
to be hoped that this brave Regiment will
leave off this low Yankee practice, and will
behave as well on the march it has always
done on the battle field.
Some twenty Cavalry men, under Lieut..
Beard, behaved badly in presence Of the
YANKEES, and the same is charged against
Capt. Nicholps Company Of Cavalry. All
the rest of the troops behaved most hand.
somely.
Soldiers with forces inferior to the Yam.
KEGS, you drove them into their rat-holes
in Newbern and Washington. You held
the latter place in close siege for sixteen
days With light field guns, you whipped
!. the four gun boats in the harbor at Wash
ington, disabling two Of them, and driving
the poor poltroon Renshaw, y. s. Navy,
under shelter Of an Island. With some half
dozen field pieces, you kept back nine
gun boats from coming to the relief of their
afflicted consorts. The relieving force Of
seven thousand men, you whipped SO easily
as to think the battle was but skirmish,
and were preparing for the real contest
when you heard the foe had slipped of In
the darkness of the night, blookading the
road behind him, so that dog, or a sneak.
ing exempt could not crawl through. If
you failed to accomplish greater things, the
fault was not yours. -
How much better it is thus to deserve the
thanks of the country by your courage and
patience, than to skulk at home as the cow
ardly exempts do. Some of these poor dogs
have hired substitutes, as though money
could pay the service every man owes his
country. Others claim to own twenty ne.
groes, and with justice might claim to be
masters of an infinite amount Of cowardice.
Others are stuffy squires, bless their digni-
fed sopls! Others are warlike militia Off
GERS, and their Regiments cannot dispense
With such models of military skill and valor.
And such noble regiments they have !
Three field officers, four staff officers, ten
Captains, thirty Lieutenauts and one pri-
yate, with a misery in his bowels. Some
are pill and syringe gentlemen, and have
done their share Of killing at home. Some
are kindly making.shoes for the army, aud
generously give them to the poor soldiers,
only asking two months pay. Some are too
sweet and delicate for any thing but fancy
dutY:th sight Of blood is unpleasant, and
the roar Of cannon shocks their sensibili-
ties.
When our independence is won, the most
triaing soldier in the ranks will be more
respected as he is now more respectable,
than an army of these skulking exempts.

The Trans Mississippi Departmental
Caution.

a' CduGlOus y
Our communication with the vast region
beyond the Mississippi being either wholly
cut off, or rendered very precarious and ir:
regular by the enemy gunboats between
sVicksburg and Port Hudson, we cannot
therefore receive direct information about
the operation of our army on that side of
the river. This is greatly to be regretted,
as now that Gen. Price is in command there
very active movements will be made for the
recovery Of the ground we have lost under
incompetent Generals But this interrup-
tion of our communications with the trans.
Mississippi Department entails upon us an
other evil of vexatious character. 1t
makes US dependant almost entirely upon
Yankee newspapers for information of what
is going on there, and We may rest assured
that more monstrous lies than ever will be
crammed into the kilograms and letters from
that theatre of events. We have already
copious budget of these Herald fabrications
in the late numbers of that mendacious
journal, announcing Federal victories in
Missouri and Louisiana. We do not be-
lieve word Of the statement about the
Cape Girardeau affair, or of Banks prodi-
gious successes, on the Teche. The only
authority which we have for such intelli.
gence is that which has so often been prov.
en- utterly worthless. On the same author
ity we, CT rather the European public, will
be told that Hooker. has demolished Lee,
and that the rebellion for the fftieth time
has been totally crushed. In this state Of
things we particularly caution our people
against receiving with any degree of faith
the reports in Northern papers about rebel
defeats and Yankee prowess in Missouri,
Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. We shall
have constant stream of such falsehoods,
without the means of disproving and expo
sing them. The best thing then, that we
can do is, to treat them as part and parcel
of that vast system Of lying which was or.
ganized at the beginning of the war and has
been more and more recklessly developing
itself ever since the first battle of Manassas.
