ANTINOMIO PATHOLOGY.

In the last number of the Southern Literary Messen-
ger there is article of remarkable force aud origi
naity, styled "AntnOmc Pathology" In spite Of one
or sophsca crotchets of the writer whom we take
be the distinguished author Of THE Sociology of the
South" the article in question will well repay careful
perusal which is than be said of many arti-
ces and books written nowadays. We do not think
that give greater treat readers than by
reproducing the following beautiful passage:
"Women's feelings are delicate nd Impression
able, and tn ir hearts purer thar mems, hence their
judgu in all matters w'tr WIn'h Sney are CONVEX
SAINT better than ours, - hence especially they
best qualified to educate vUrag. Women never
chop iogc, talk in CIV CYSTIC recsnges, like old
lIWyers, but proceed directly and dsgonay to their
conclusions, impeed by feelings and instincts and in
SEPARATIONS hich seldom err because they are natural
and God given. Oh how beautiful and tIuthfuy they
talk! Truths hidden from revealed TO them.
Paganism has vanished from the earth; the Delpbic
Pythoness is heard more; the cave of the Duncan
Syb is silent and deserted but woman is still the
Piestess of the Oracle in the Temple of Truth. Her
instincts are inspirations from above; her voice the in-
voluntary revelations Of truths which she utters without
comprehending."

ARREST OF A FEMALE SPY

On Friday last the detectives of Gen. Winders Office
arrested at the residence Of Rev. NJ u. Hoge in this
city, Mrs Mary j. Allan, the charge of communicating
information 10 the enemy. 1t appears that about a
week or ten days since Mrs. Allan sent, by blockade
runner who proceeding to Baltimore, two or three
letters one of which was directed Rev. Morgan Dix,
son of Gen. Dix, of the Yankee army, and another to
her sister, at Cincinnati.
The blockade runner fortunately opened the letters
and in reading them discovered that they contained
various revelations intended for the information Of the
enemy be promptly returned to the city, and deliver
ed the letters 10 General Winder, who, Immediately
caused Mrs. Allan TO be placed under duress His pur-
pose, We are informed was to transfer her to Castle
Thunder, but higher authority having nterposed, as
alleged she was sent to ST. Francis de Sales Hospital on
Brooke Avenue, where she is detained under
guard.
Mrs. Allan is the wife of Patterson Allan of this
city, and il therefore connected by marriage with
of the most respectable families OF Richmond She is
the daughter of DR.. Wilson, of Cincinnati, in which
city she was born. Mr.. Allan made her acquaintance
some years since during European tour. For some
time past there has been arrangement between Mrs.
Allan and her husbands relatives. Hence she was ad.
mitted as guest in the family of DR.. Boge whose hos
ptay she has abused by denounciug him in of her
letters as rebel and giving information of the time of
his expected return, and route coupled with the
preston of the ope that he would be captured Such
we learn the purport of her communication relative
to DR.. Il 3.
The affair will, of course, undergo investigation at an
early day.

AN IMPORTANT RUMOR.

We received lengthy telegram from Winchester,

more American of the l6sh inst, most If which has
been anticipated in the extracts New York papers

THE POSITION IN MISSISSIPPI.
From the Brandon Republican, 9th.

Up to eleven o'clock yesterday we were in doubt as

the particulars Of the surrender far he knew. He

THE YAYKEES IN 7AzEWELL.

Official information received here Saturday OF the
appearance of body of Yankee cavalry IN Tazewell

sumpt is that their Objects advance on the Salt
