B8@ A SINGULAR TRANsAcr1oN.-A few
days ago young merchant doing business
on Main street, made complaint before AL

upwards of seven hundred dollars. He
stated that on the evening, or rather night
in question, certain fast young woman
was in the store for considerable length
of time. The merchant had occasion to
leave the establishment for short time,
and when he returned the box containing
the money was gone. The young woman
shortly afterwards left the sture. Tho
merchant swore out search warrant aud
stguifed his intention of having the vo-
man arrested, but subsequently he declined
to have anything to do With the prosecu-

He and one. of his companions of the same way of

This gentlemen having afterwards become serious
Christian, was concerned for the countryman, lest
his faith in the Christian religion should have been
shaken by their remarks. One day he took the lib

been advanced in his hearing had not produced this

MISSISSIPPI "PArR1or1sx. THE Mobile Register

says: :
We learn on the authority of respectable citizen
of Mississippi who lives this side of Okalona, that
there are planters in that Deighborhood who have
declared that they will alow their fodder to rot in
the field than gather it for sale for the army
at government prices. It is almost incredible that
feeling and expression so stupid and dastardly a.
this, should have survived the fierce and purifying
ordeal of fire through which the sprat Of the South
ern people has passed. But there are men without
souls enough to manifest the divine spark in this
world; although, by the miracle of God, possibly
enough may be developed to be damned in the next.
If you put only dross in the furnace of course only
dross comes out of it. 1t is thus that we account
for the presence of such wretches are described
in the speech we have quoted. Would to God that
they and their accused property could be parceled
off into one district and turned over to the tender
mercies of Yankee raid Then they would howl
for the protecting arm Of the government whose
horses they would starve rather than gather their
fodder at fixed price. Then they would under
stand their peculiar interest in the strugge-they
would open their blind eyes and see the tremendous
stake they have in t-how, if the Confederate cause
fails, they will be stripped Of the fields upon which
they intend to permit their fodder to rot their slaves
will be stolen and they themselves become (what
they only fit for) the slaves of Yankee masters
We have patience to write of such burlesqnes of
the manly nature We turn them over to the re-
| wards that surely await them-the contempt and
execration of brave people who have achieved their
independencein spite of these miserable dr0nes in
the busy hive Let public opinion mark them and
root out the tares from the wheat

CLlNGxAN's BRIeADE-We have heard an indis.

return Of Gen. Clingmans brigade to North Carolina
perhaps to this point. We do not know whether
the rumor is entitled to any weight, but we have
no aouot but that such movement would be hearth
" welcomed by the brigade, and that then would
be heartily welcomed by the people here.
Inc brigade has seen some pretty rough service

THE WORTH, OF WOMAN.
FROM res eERxAx OF scH1lLER

Honored be womani she beams on the SIGHT,
Graceful and fair, like being of light;
ScaIters around her wherever she strays
Rises of bliss on our thorn covered ways;
Roses of Pal adse. sent from above,
To be gathered and twined in garland o' '0'e'
Man, Oh PASSIONS stormy ocean,
Tossed BY surges mOWntain hlgn,
Courts the hurricanes cOmmotiOn,
Spurns at Reasons feeble cry.
Loud the tempes. roars around hun,
Louder still it rOars within,
Flashing lights Of hope contound him,
Stuus with fe's nce>sant din.
Woman invites him with bliss in her smile,
To cease from his toll and be happy ap nue.,
Whispering wcoinglv, "Come to my bower,
Go not in search of the phantom OF power;
Honor and wealth are illusory-come!
Happiness dwes in the temples at home
Man, with fury stern aud savage,
Persecutes his brother MAJ,
Reckless If he bless or ravage-
Action! action still his plan;
Now creating now destroying,
Ceaseless wishes tear his breast;
Ever seeking -ne'er enjoying,
Still to be, but never bIess.
Woman, content in silent repose,
Enioys in its beauty life's flower as it blows,
And Waters and tends it with innocent heaft,
Far richer than mans with his treasures OF art;
And wiser by far in her circle confined
Imam he Win dis Sclence huo ilkns Va VIZ A~'N~'
-Coldly to himself suficing,
Man disdans the gentle arts,
Knoweth not the bliss arising
From the interchange of hearts.
Slowly through his bosom stealing,
Flows the genial current on,
Till BY ages frost congealing,
1t is hardened into stone.
She, like the harp that instinciively rings, =,
As the nigh breathing zephyr soft signs on tn'
Responds to each impulse with steady reply,
Whether sorrow or pleasure her sympathy try,
And tear drops and Smiles on her countenance play
Like sunshine and showers of morning in May.
Through the range Of mans dominion,
Terror is the ruling word,
And the standard of opinion
Is the temper Of the sword
Strife exaIts, and Pity, b!ushing,
From the scene departing flies.
Where the battle mady rushing.
Brother upon brother dies.
Woman commands by milder control;
She rules by enchantment the realms of the soul
As she gances around in the light of her smile,
The war OF the passions is hushed for awhile,
Aud Discord content from his fury to cease,
Reposes entranced on the pillow Of peace.

Attempt to Gross the Rspidan-The Enemy
= Driven Back

Attempt to Cross the Raptdan-The Enemy
:. Driven Back
Yesterday morning report was received by the
Central cars that Meade's army had crossed the
Rapdan river at Morton's, Somerville, AND Raccoon
Fords in large force. This report subsequently
proved untrue. By the train yesterday evening We
get tho following facts of the affair." which gave rise
doubtless, to the report mentioned:
On Sunday morning about daylight the enemy
appeared in large force at Mortons Ford and com.
menced crossing They crossed considerable DO.
tiy of men and then stopped. As they apparently
intended to send hore just then, our forces
attacked those already across and after short fight
drove them back to the other side. The affair was
short and almost bloodess one, our loss being re-
ported at one killed and three wounded. 1t was of
such short duration that the troops engaged in it
were back in their old camp by o'clock P. NJ, pre-.
pairing supper.
At the same time that the demonstration was
made at Morton's Ford the enemy appeared at Rae
coon Ford and planted battery. A brisk fire was
opened, which was replied to by the Confederates,
and in short time the fire from the other side Of
the river ceased.
Five or six prisoners, captured in the skirmish at
Mortons Ford, were brought down on the Central
train last night They speak Of Meade's army hav.
ing been much strengthened, and say that he has
"big lot" of men with him.
Up to II o'clock yesterday there had been no re:
newal of the attempt to cross by the Yankees and
no further fighting. Dispateh.
