INJUSTICE TO THE SoLDIE Rs.-Tbe CORES
pendent of the New York Tribune, under
date Of Fredericksburg, 18th, gives the fol-
lowing gloomy picture of the army. There
certainly is wrong in some of the depart
ments Of the government, and a fearful re-
sponsibility upon somebody's soul, for this
condition Of things:
ut is much to be regretted that the
Army Of the Potomac could not have been
paid before the present movement had been
commenced. 1t is useless to deny that,
during the inactivity Of the past month, a
universal murmur has gone forth from the
soldiers, who have becn-many for six
months, most of them for four months
without penny Of their hard earned
wages.
Thousands Of letters have been sent to
the men from their halfstarved and desti-
tute families, depicting their needy condi.
ton, which have made the inactivity OF
camp almost intolerable Had not the Pc.
tomac been in their rear, we should have
heard of thousands of assertions, from the
simple fact that the men have been unable
to send money to their families at home
The prospect of movement may possibly
dlspel all discomfort and dependency bu,
certainly Gen. Burnside is the most coura
geous OF men to lead this army against III.
eHemy in its present condition.

INDEPENDENT PATTI.-The Paris cores
pendent Of the Montreal Herald says AIDE
lima Patti is enjoying one Of the most sue,
cessful engagements of the season, in the
gay capital Of France. AS illustrative of
her marked independence aud individuality,
he adds:
"Ihe new diua has a pretty air of art.
fitness and independence that takes i'm
mcnscly with the Parisians Being pr0ba-
bly, determined to show that she is not in
tending to follow in the steps Of her rivals,
all Of whom are believed to have made violent
attempts on the Emperor mot usually sup
posed to have been thrown away, she
persisted, when the Emperor was present,
in never looking towards the Imperial box
or taking the slightest notice Of the Imperial
applause. Towards the end Of the even
ing the Emperor threw on the stage a
beautiful boquet. out Of which rolled a
magnificent diamond ring The daring
little beauty took no notice Of the no ,or,
but finished her part and quilted the stage
without directing a single courtesy towards
the Emperor, whose gift was picked up and
carried into tn" green room by one Of the
singers. The Emperor is said to be mucl,
amused by the unusual behavior Of the new
favorite; and all Paris is in raptures at tho
originality and indepcnce Of which she has
given proof, and which they explain t.
their perfect abstraction by the fact Of he,
having been brought up in America"

The above schedule comprising the bust
hess for two months is really very fine
exhibit Of the business done in this section
of Clayton County. One thing is quite
certain, the revenue officers in this district
are more faithful to their work than they
are in other localities, or we arc doing a
heavier business in the way Of manufac.
turing or merchandising business than
many of our more prctentious neighbors.
For instance, we see by the Chicago Trib
