GREAT CHANGE IN SOUTHERN POLICY coSrEM-
PLATED.
Private news from Richmond Indicate change
IN two very important particulars OF Southern
policy The first is return to specie currency
and the leyying of direct tax sufficient to carry
on the war. and sustain the civil administration
of the government; and The second, the adoption
of a gradual system OF emancipation for the
women and children. and the immediate emanci-
patton of all the males between the ages of sew
enteen and fity and putting them in the army
The consideration of this policy, | learn. has
been going on for some time, and the policy it.
self has met with violent opposition. Some OBJ
jected that the negroes could not be trusted with
arms: bpt the reply was that, il intelligent
Northern men, who detcsted the service. could
be conscripted. and, when in the army, could be
! trusted. why could not the blacks be trusted in
the Southern army. The reply is unanswerabIe
besides if seryile Instructions are to be dreaded
how much better is il to have in the army, in
stead of among the women and children on the
farms and plantations, the most dangerous
portion of the servile class. The great difficulty
has been, that the emancipation must be the act
of the respective States. and not of the Confed
crate Government. ne pressure OF feueral
successes has, learn. brought the States TO the
conclusion that, if they did not emancipate their
sla-es. the Federal armies would do il for them.
TAe ohjectors to emancipation have been the

| opposed to secessun, and now desire reconstruc-

negroes. and believed that disuDion would be ia.
tai to their security. Since. however, the issuing
Of Mr.. Lincoln's proclamation, the planters have
come to the conclusion that slavery is doomed
and they might ss well liberate their slaves vol
UNFAIRLY as be coerced into it. These two great
and vital changes in the policy Of the Confeder-

The homogeuety Of the New England States
has given them power which they have made
felt. But
westward the star Of empire takes its way
and the Western States will ere long have an
identity and State pride which viii make them

power felt in impressing their policy upon the
nation. But we only started oyhfo show that the
professeJ regard of New England for freedom Is

so long as she could make money In the slave
traffic. This facts Individually prove.

ITCH OINTMENT.

A SAFE, convenient and cflicaciOus rca-
IA edy for that most disagrecable and tor
menting disordcr-the ITCII-has been
always greatly needed; but no one, it is
presumed, has before been discovered. which
will certainly effect cure without having
ingredients in it both disagrceabc and dan
gerous. Those that have attempted its cure
with birthstone, have generally applied it
with mixture Of hogs fat, or lard worn for
several days, OF dried in by the fire, either Of
which exposes the patient to the most immi-
nent danger Of taking cold, by opening the
pores of the body, and at the same time
impregnating the blood with poisonous
quality, and weakening and facilitating the
whole constitution others have used on.-
ments which have either proved dangerous
to health, or insufficient to effect cure
But this will as certainly cure the ITCH
as it is applied it is easy and safe for any
age, habit or constitution, and attended with
no disagreeablc consequences Of any kind,
either at the time Of using it, or at any time
after, as can be proved by thousands of peo-
pie Of different ages, constitutions and states
of health, who have used this ointment, and
have been cured by it.
No family ought to be without this yalua-
bic medicine; for, on the first appearance of
this disorder, on the wrists and betwixt tho
fingers, &c, slight application of this Oint-

and likewise its being taken by others. 1t
may also be used as a preventive, by touch
ing the hands or the inside Of the gloves once
in while with q little it, when there is q
suspicion that the disorder is prevalent, and
there is danger Of taking it. For which rea-
son no people abroad on business, no student,
traveller, soldier or sailor, should be without
this Ointment, which is neatly put up in tin
boxes, convenient to carry, agreeable in its
smell, and will last good for long time. By
this psecaution, neighborhoods, societies and
schools, might be freed from this tormenting
disorder. Should the patient have any
other eruption or breaking out, which he
mistakes for the ITcH an application of this
Ointment will do no harm, but often cutcs
the common breaking out, which arises IRON
sharp, hot humor in the blood, and leaves
smooth polish on the skin.
There have been many Ointmcnts offered
to the public, for the cure Of the IrcH, but
this valuable medicine bears no analogy to
them in its materials, use, or effects they

stone, tar, mercury, spirits Of turpentue,

Of which can only be understood by profess

SKINNER SorRs.-Physiologica research
has fully established the fact that acids pro-
mote the separation of the bile from the
blood. which is then passed from tie system.
thus preventing fcycrs, the prevailing dis
eases Of sumner. All fevcrS are ''blious,"
that IS the bile is in the blood. Whatever
is antagonstic to fever is cooling" 1t is
Il common saying that fruits are cooling"
and also berries Of every description il is
because the acidity which they contain aids
in separating the bile from thc blood that
is, aids in purifying the blood. Hence the
great ycqrning for greens and lettuce, and
salads in the early spring, those being eaten
with vinegar; hence also the taste for some
thing sour, for Lemonade, on an attack of
fever. But this being the, case, it is easy to
see, that We nuliiy the good effects Of fruits
and berries i'll proportion as We cat them
with sugar, or even sweet milk, or cream. =
Ii we cat them in their natural state, fresh,
ripe, perfect, it is almost impossible to cat
too many, to eat enough TO hurt MS, cspe-
cally if we eat them alone, not taking any
liquid with them whatever. Hence also
buttcrnilk or even common sour milk is
auia&omistic. The Greeks and Turks are
passionatcly fond of sour milk. The shep-
herds use rcnnet, and the milk dealers alum
to make it sour the sooner. Buttermilk acts
like water melons on the system.

Marks how long the minutes linger--
And the cmbcrs dimIy burning,
Tell of life to dust returning.

With quiet. muuruluI sound,

Come the ghosts Of long ago.
One by one count them 0 cr,
Voices. that are heard no more,
Tears thH; loving cheeks, have wet,
Words whose mw>ic fingers yet,
Holy faces pale and fair,
fiEadowy locks of wavcring hair,
Happy signs and whispers dear,
Songs forgotten many year,
lips of d"wy fragrance, eyes
Brighter, blucr than the skies.
Odors brcathcd from Paradise.
And the gentle shadows glide
Softly murmurin@ at my side,
Til the long. untiicndca day
All forgotten fades away.
Thus when am all alone,
Dreaming O CT the Past aud Gone,
MI around ne, sad and slow.
Come the ghosts of long ago.
