Second Concert of Mrs. Weeks.

BY the request of several officers and cit-
zcns Mrs, Wicks and her pupils, aided by a
few amateur musical friends, gave second
concert on Friday evening last. This, like
the first one, was decided success, and
elected the warmest praise Of those present,
Indeed, we think it even better than the
first one. There was most excellent taste
and judgment in the selection Of the pieces,
and talent in their execution One Of the
fair singers, indeed, might win golden praise
from the most fastdious auditory 1t was
no wonder that she was constantly greeted
with applause and encores. The large hall
in the Court House was crowded, and
among those present we noticed Gems Scho-
field, Tilson and Manson, and very many
other officers.

We know what scccsh Is in this neighborlood -
Many are the nights we hayo had to lie in the bush
to secure our scalps from the fury Of the Southern

exceedingly honest and mgniGcently piou', but
the murder Of Union man, or the lospoing him Of
his goods i. regarded rs tho height of christian per

OBITUAR

Departed this life at his residence in Knox county,
on the 25th Of February, ELIJAH J. WALKER, in
the 33d year Of his age,
Brother Walker united with tho Baptis, church
is 1856. lie was consistent devoted and humble
christian from the time he made q profession up to
his death. lie fought good fight and kept the
faith; was ever at his post always ready for every
good and moral word and work; in contribution
liberal; his house and heart were always open to
receive the christian and feed the hungry; for the
very last act of his life was deed of kindness, an
act of charity with the remark that the poor must
be fed Brother Walker was married on the 2jth
of December 1850. lie has left disconsoatc
wife an uged father and mother four sisters and six
brothers, with large circle Of relatives and friends
to lament his death. All members of the Baptist
Church. the church to which he belonged, will
deeply feel and lament his death. But we mourn
not MS those who. have no hope, for our loss is his
eternal gain. His departure from this world has
been placid and triumphant and that all Of him
which is mortal has been consigned to its resting
place amidst the signs and tears of those whose
hearts were most keenly sensible Of the bcreayc-
mcnt they endured

EXtrayagant Southern Ideas.

The South, listening to the bad counscls
of set of bad men, has been hasty, uncal-
culating and wastclul. We are Il Southern
man, and no less devoted to the soil and
climate of the genial South, and its loyal
inhabitants, than in former days, but we
claim to be candid and impartial We
know that every boy in the ultra Southern
States is taught to believe in the natural
superiority of "the flower Of the Southern
youth and the "best blood Of the South, ~
and that he, as youth, is more than match
in war for five grown men Of Northern
birth and raising. The truth Is, that the
male progeny of the cotton lords Of the
South and of all large property holders,
are brought up in idcness, nay, luNuriantly,
and almost without restraint, and hence
they are nervous and irritable under con-
tradction. The most ordinary excitement
puts these sprigs Of nobility in n frenzy Of
genuine passion, when they illuminate in
grand style in favor Of Southern rights
and in opposition to everything North, in
Guiding Bibles and Tcstaments.
The women and boys Of the South are
not unlike each olher in temperament If
there be any odds, the women are more cX-
citable and unreasonable and anCoaS0HtHg;
and hence the fact well authenticated, that
the women and boys contributed largely to
fan the early flames Of the he'll Of secession,
and gave its birthstone confagrstion a
much larger sweep than it would otherwise
have obtained. The result Of this social
and political phenomenon was that the boy'
in the rebel States rushed almost en- mdSSeto
arms at the outbreak Of the rebellion, dry
ing up all the colleges and academies in the
South For by boys we do not nrcan young
men and bachelors, but school boys-Iuds Of
fifteen-not free from the apron strings Of
their mothers, but even encouraged by those
very mothers to dash madly into the fight
The result was, that multiplied thousands
died from exposure, camp tevcrs and from
a want of parental oversight. And the pa
rents congratulate themselves that their
sons died in cause SO sacred and holy as
to be scarcely second to the cause Of Christ.
The inlatuation Of many Of the females
was so great that they married, upon an
acquaintance of few days or weeks, rebel
officers, with straps upon their shoulders or
plumcs in their hats about whose antece-
dents, habits and morals, they knew just
less than nothing. Indeed, many Of them
married men of bad habits, and Of the
worst morals, hattering themselves that the
'sacrcd cause in which they were engaged
would make a gentleman out Of Il rgfidn.
