This gallant officer, it seems, has actually
8 entered on his duties in, command Of the
Department of North Carolina. In an
address he has delivered to his Division,
occurs thefoiIo#ing pithy paragraph, which
,iisgeneral in its meaniug
aOar cities, towns and villages, are full
Of young and abls-bodied skulkers, wearing
z the semblance of men, who have lodged
from the battlefield under the provisions of
3 the exemption bill. The scorn of the fair
sex, and theeontemptof all honorable men,
have not been able to drive these cowardly
miscreauts into the ranks. So long as they
can fatten upon the miseries of the country,
5 and shelter their worthless earcasses from
~ Yankee bullets, they are insensible to shame.
But day of retribution awaits these abor-
tions Of humanity. Their own descendants
will execrate their memory, when the finger
ssof scorn is pointed, and the taunt is uttered,
ssilie Is the son., or grand son, or great
Sgranasso of an erenpt and ertortioner. !"

JAMES L. pEr1eRU.

~ The Charleston papers announce the
3 death Of this great and good man, in the
7f4th year Of his age. He was born in Alb
8beyille District, and graduatedin the South
Carolina College in 1909. Asa politician,
Mr. p. was fearless and honest, but his
opinions we're not such as his State felt
s warranted to endorse but as the practised
jurist, the finished gentleman, and the true
Christian, be has doubtless carried to the
!. graye more lasting affection than any per-
sonal ambition of his nature had ever aspir.
led TO. Out of Charleston, it is. probable
that Mr.. p. is chiefly known to the profess
sional and literary circles Of wealth and
aEiuence-but at home, among his many
eceentricities, he was still the poor mans
: friend, and thus, we fear has left the poor
mans legacy, good but an honored name.
He was one of the old line Union .whig
party, aad as such opposed separate State
action, and cooperation, alike; but when
action did ceme, he contributed his treas
snres ohis country; aud now has followed
them to their early graves. Carolina can
lily afford to lose such men, at such a
time. -
