Patent oflce last evening was eminently sue

The gentlemen who made the arrangements
for the meeting did their work In an admirable

the matters discussed, and went home with
their patriotism strengthened and rcviviHed.

A GLOOMY New YEAR AT RICH
MoND.-The Richmond Examiner OF
December 81, had most doleful article,
reviewing the events of 1868, in which
it said -
To-day closes the gloomiest year OF
cur struggle No sanguine hope of in-
teryention buoya up the spirits of the
confederate public as at the end OF 1861.
No brilliant victory like that of Freder>
icksburg, encourages US to look forward
TO speedy and successful termination OF
the war, as in the last weeks OF 1862
Meade has been foiled, and Longstrees
has Lad partial success in Tennessee
hut Meades advance was hardly meant
in earnest, and Beans Station is poor
set off to the loss of the gallant men who
| fell in the murderous assault upon Knox
vile. Another daring Yankee raid has
been carried out with comparative impu-
nny to the invaders, and timorous CAPT
talists may we'll pause before they nibble
at eligible Investments in real estate situ-
ated far in the interior. That interior
has been fearfully narrowed by the fed
eral march through Tennessee, and ow-
ing to the Deficiencies of our cavalry SER
vice Lincoln's squadrons of horse threat
en- to be as universal terror, as perya-
sive nuisance, as his squadrons of gun
boats were some months since The con-
federacy has been cut in twain along the
line Of the Mississippi, and our enemies
are steadily pushing forward their plans
for bisectiag the eastern moety. NO
wonder, then, that the annual advent OF
the reign of mud is hailed by all classes
with a sense Of relief Meanwhile the
financial chaos is becoming wilder and
wilder. Hoarders keep more resolnte
grasp than ever on the necessaries OF
life.
'Non.producers, who are at the same
time non-spcculators, are suffering more
', and more. What was once competence
has become poverty, poverty has become
penury, and penury is laPsins into pau
perism. Any mechanical occupation IS
). more profitable than :he most intellectual
profession. The most accomplished
scholars in the confederacy would be glad
TO barter their services for food and raj
= ment, and in the complete upturning OF
!, our social relations, the only happy peo'
nle are those who have black hearts OF
black skins. Unreasouing confidence
has been succeeded by depression as un'
- reasoning, and the Yankees are copg'at'
ulating themselves on the result, which

Nora is pretty,
Nora is witty,
Witty and pretty as pretty can DC
She's the compleiest
Of girls, and the neatest'
The brightest and sweetest;
But She's not for me.

Be witty and pretty as pretty can be-
So strong and so slender,
So naughty and tender,
So sweet in your splendor,
And yet not for me
