one opinion. Rye and wheat. which pro.

And Notwithstanding the want Of laborers.
and the extreme difficulty Of procuring TODD

A recent large advance in the price Of paper CON-
pes to raise the price Of the Recorder to eight dol

we should greatly increase the price Of our paper
Before the war the price Of The Recorder would have
purchased 10 "A pounds Of butter 20 dozen eggs,
two or three bushels Of meal so or 100 pounds 81

hundred prices for every thing We buy. Il will be
seen, therefore, that oui price is no, ye, up TO The

KlLLIso HoksEs.-lt appears 10 Us either
that the government has some very unwise
rules, or some very unwise agents 10 carry
Its rules int effect. We have received 4
communication stating that a number Of
government horses were taken TO certain
county in this State TO be recruited upon
the 1.-THE corn aud oats OF that section. Not
improving very rapidly. some forty odd
were killed, though the farmers were great
ly IN need Of horses, and would have been
glad.to buy them, or TO fatten one Tor an
other. They might have been sold for
several thousand dollars. The officer had
no authority 10 sell, and so killed them.
BY which the government lost thousands Of
dollars, gave handle to the disafiected,
and reduced the number Of horses, already
deplorably scarce.
Wehave given the commune alton d.
rection where II may possibly attract the
attenties Of the authorities.

Observation-Disclosures step 10 this blood

of Charleston. within whose limit, no troops
are posted, isnot in accordance with the
rules Of civilized war it was begun with.
ou. notice to the women and children and
sick, and has been continued without any
other object than TO destroy private pro.
perry and the lives Of non combatant,' for
there are no soldiers there to kill, and the
Yankees themselves have abandoned the
hope Of capturing the city. Under these
circumstances our government--very un-
wisely, We think--sent number of YAM
kee prisoners, Generals and other high OH
GERS. 10 Charleston. TO be imprisoned there.

putting City Of our high officers within

STRAGGLISo INTO 4 FIsHT.-We have
heard an incident of the charge on Friday
night for the recovery Of the works. near
Petersburg. which deserves to be mention.
ed. The line Of battle was formed. and
the charge ordered, but afterwards delay
being considered desirable, il was counter
manded. The couItermand reached only
part OF the troops. The rest according
ly moved forward. The Texans sf Fields
division were among those that we're halt.
ed but seeing the other part Of the line
move on. they became restless. and finally
impraeticable. BY ones. and twos. and
squads. they broke ranks and went forward.
The contagion spread. until sosn the whole
command. officers and all. took up the we'll
known yell, and rushed on like a storm.
The works were everywhere carried, and
what is extremely gratifying. with bur lit.
tie loss. Gen. Lee is reported to have re-

heard Of their struggling to the front.
