SHOPPING EXcURsIoN.-On Thursday two
ladies from Richmond came to Washington
with a arty of refugees. Their names were
Miss Eugenia c. Hyde and Miss Constance
Carey. The last named was found to be the
intended bride of Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, and the
errand of herself and her fair companion
was TO purcl a e wardrobes for the approach
ing nuplials. Provost Marshal Todd deter
mined to send them back to Dixie by the
same road they came, namely the Culpeppcr
route.
Miss Carey, the future Mrs. Gen. Lee is
very pretty though rather petite young lady,
and very Intellectual withal. When she
found the provost marshal inexorable, she

transpt rtation in OK caIts through the Bull
Run region. When the marshal Informed
her that she must return by the way she
came, the bride elect was quite indignant
She stormed little and her bright eyes
flashed good deal. She remarked that she
hoped to meet Marshal Todd in Richmond
when she would take pains to reward him
for his kindness.
The ladies were placed under the care Of
1t Clark Smith, of the 169th New York re-
siment. Lieut.. Smiths conduct won the APP
probation of the ladies, and Miss Carey as
sured him that if he should be carried priso-
ner to Richmond she would do all in her
power to assist him. She presented to the
lieutenant copy of verses she had written
and addressed to her intended husband. and
expressed her disappointment in the result
of her hard journey to the North, the con-
sequence of which would be postponement
of her nuptials. Hash Rep.

We amend the following extracts from

show what their dear Southern brethren
think of Peace and reconstruction:
The Northern Democrats ask now that
with the frivolity of children, the two
communities should ignore the past,
should treat the tremendous events of
past forty years as trihcs: and with a
debt of two or three billions of dollars
incurred in mutual slaughter, should
shake the bloody hands of each other,
and be brethren once more. The thing
is not possible. 1t would be barbarous.
corrupt and wicked. Who but brutes
could shake hands and be friends with
the slayers of brothers and companions
Probably half million of men on both
sides have fallen as victims of this fright
full war. Are each community to throw
off the habiliments of mourning, to for
get their dead and revel in mutual ami.
ty over the graves of the slain? The
spectacle would disgust the worl'; Hca.
ven would be shocked at the ilnpiety of
the scene. Honorable reace is always
to be desired War should not be pro-
longed one moment from mere sentiments
of revenge. But political union and So
cial amity with the slaycrs of hundreds
of thousands of our countrymen, would
be an ind ccency revolving to every vir-
tuons, pious, and chivalrous instinct of
human nature.
Reconstruction is absurd, and those
who apprehcnd danger of its occurrence
betray a want OF confidence in the people
who constitute the armies Of the South
If the proposed Convention could assume
the Office of Gabriel, and sounding ano-
tler trump Of resurrection. bring toge.
Their all the bones of the children Of the
South which now whiten upon every bat.
tle-ield; if the MANNED and amed and
diseased could be made whole, if woun-
ded hearts could be healed, and families
reunited; if desclated fields and homes
in ashes could be restored; if this Con-
vention could achieve these ends, then
there might be basis for that apprc-
hended danger, the very suggestion of
which surposcs want of faith in the
steadiness Of purpose of the people of
the South. -R,chmond Examiner.
