Second Concert of Mrs. Wicks.

By the request of several officers and citi-
zens Mrs. Wicks and her pupils, aided by
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. Ono Of the
fair singers, indeed, might win golden praise

with applause and enc0res. The large hall

other officers.

mounted rebel thieves and murdcrcrs, and
about three weeks ago visited the house of
a Onion Methodist Preacher, Mr.. FORESTER,

his clothes, three horses, and all other mat

Many are the nights we have had to lie in the bush
to our sealps from the fury of the Southern
sympathizcrs in our codnty. They profess to be
exceedingly honest and mognifcently pious, but
the murder Of Union man, or thcdcspoilng him of
his goods, is regarded the height Of christian per-
fiction. After feat of this character they can
meet in church and become perfectly enthusod un-

will never get qaet until everything here is torn
to pieces.
The negro is goncupi in Missouri No true Union
man regrets it. Indeed VIC doubt the loyalty Of
any who clings to the shadow when the sub
stance is gone. We saw nothing in your paper in /
dicating that you arc in sympathy with those who /

EXtraYagant Southern IDEAS.

Inc South listening to the bad counscls
OF set Of bad men, has been hastv, uncal
culating and wastcful We are a Southern
man. land no less devoted to the soil and
climate of the genial South and its loval
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 "tho flower of the !Santl.e.--
and that he as Il 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 idleness nay, luXurIontIy,
and almost without restraint, and hence
they are nervous and irritable under CON
tradiction The most ordinary excitement
puts these sprigs of nobility in 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 Testaments
The women and boys Of the South are
not unlike each other in temperament. If
there be any odds, the women are more eX-
citablc and unreasonable and uareasoni1gj
and hence the fact well authenticated, that
the women and boys contributed largely to
fan the carly flames of the he'll Of secession,
and gave its rimstoneconhagr&tion
much larger sweep than it would otherwise
/ have obtained. The result Of this social
and political phenomenon was that the boys
! in the rebel States rushed almost en- mdSScto
arms at the outbreak Of the rebellion, dry
ing up all the colleges and academies IN the
South For by boys We do not mean young
men and bachelors, but school boys-iads OF
ffteen-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 teyers ana 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 intatuation 6f41ony Of the females
was so great that they married, upon an
acquaintance of a few days or weeks, rebel
officers with straps upon their shoulders or
plumos in their hats, about whose antece-
dents, habits and morals, they knew just
less than nothing, Indeed, many Of Chem
married men of bad habits, and Of the
worst morals, hatte'ing themselves that tn,
"sacrcd cause in which they were engaged
would make gentleman out Of Il r!tfa".
