whole nation plunged into the chaos of Presi-

that the North is rapidly drifting toward that

In the South, we have suffered and grown strong;
we have learned to hear punishment, humiliation
and defeat; have united in common sacrifice;

spirit of destruction pervades the masses. Riots,
tumults aud civil connections have already begun
to blot her page, while the people, if stirred by
some devilish impulse, have plunged into the wild

"Apropos of the Beast, the following incident
happening at Fortress Monroe last week is authen-
tic One of the returned prisoners, Colonel of
the Confederate Army, on his way from Point
Lookout to Richmond, ushered into the pre-
sence of Butler, who said he desired to put some
plain questions to the Colonel, and wanted per-
fectly frank answers to them promising that these
answers would not affect, in the least, the Colo
nel's status prisoner of war, one way or tie
other. The Colonel desired him to proceed. The
following dialogue ensued between the two:
Beast Butlcr--H, in the accidents of war,
should fall prisoner into your hands, what would
you do with me?
The Colonel should execute you on the spot.
Beast ButIer-Is this purpose generally enter

The colonel-Yes, and the privates too
Beast Butler-Sir, thank you for your candor.
The Colonel-Sir, you are entirely welcome to

that for long time his porkers have suffered from
this very common complaint. He tried various
remedies, but without effect, unit, the idea sugges-
ted itself that bleeding might have tendency to
check the disease. With this view he bled his
pigs in the roof of the mouth, and with the most
beneficial results, having lost but two pigs out of
his large stock, since be commenced this mode of
checking the disease. We hope that our friends
in the country who have diseased swine will try
the experiment, and by this simple remedy, save
their bacon. -.
