A joint resolution is now pending in the
General Assembly of the State, which win,
if passed, authorize the Trustees Of the
Reform School to receive twenty girls un-
der fourteen years Of age, FOR one year,
into that institution, placing them under
the care Of tie nstrcn. This step which
Is intended as merely experimental and
preliminary to permanent Reform Farm
for Girls, has been taken at the earnest re-
commepdation of the Trustees and Super
Intsndent Of the State Reform Farm. The
resolution ought to be adopted. It will
occasion but slight expense, and its results
win We think fully demonstrate the eIps-
disncy and necessity of 8 State Reform
School for Girls.

The following are from late number Of
the Louisville JosrnaI:
Generals Crook and Kelly chose 70
sleep ir Cumberland away from their COM
mands and from any Union forces, and the
guerrillAs carried them of, taking st the
Gametime aeoup1s of fine horses. IF the
rebs win return the horses, they are well
come to the Gsaetsls. Z
General Joe Johnston, In his late report,
says that his loss in his retreat from Dal-
ton 70 Atlanta Was II, 900 men, and esti-
mates Sherman's at $1,000. A General
who estimates like thst should be held in
very little estimation himself
The Mobile Register says the souls of the
rebels are not disarmed, but their hands
are. That will do, rebs. So long as you
have no arms In your hands, we have no
spprehensiOnS IS to what your souls will
do.
The Richmond Rhl thinks SHERMAN
is very vAeillsting General" It is very
true that he can't make up his mind to
stay long in any one place.
The Richmond Enquirer thinks that,
after little while, "nothing will be left Of
Sherman" True nothing left-he's all
right.
The present Congress has come to an
end. We value its end more than we did
its beginning. sl
The rebels are trying to bslittle Sher-
man BY words. BE is belittling them by
deedG.

The telegraph reports Sue Mundy cap
tured. Some time since, Prentice, of the
Louisville Journal, fred paper shot at
him, and received in reply note signed
by himself, and three of her chief officers,
with private one from Sue, asking him
to publish the letter, and when she met
him, she would pay him in any currency
he chose. "Weil, let US think what we will
take pay in. We don't want 1t in Confed-
crate notes, for our pockets wouldn't hold
enough to pay for "a nip" apiece tor Sue
and ourselves. We don't desire it in
lead, for we have mettas enough In US
already. We don't want it in steel, for we
have quite as much point now as we need.
We prefer not to take it in hemp, for we
are a temperance man and have decided
objections to getting high. We won't &C.
eept it in kisses, for we would rather be
kissed by the Devils daughter with her
birthstone breath than by tomboy. Well
not submit to have 1t in hugs for those
who have seen Sue in her guerrilla costume,
say that she is q little bare. So we'll not
sue to Sue for faVors of any sort. She has
done great deal Of stealing, but she can't
steal our heart, and we don't care to have
her steel her own against us. She has COM
mitted great waste, but she can't commit
her own little one to our arms"

The Poor OF new Orleans.


AT the Inauguration, on the 4th instant,
of J. Madison wells, Governor of Louisi-
ans, in place Of Governor Hahn, resigned,
Major General Hurlbut made an excellent
speech, from which we take the following:
The military authorities of the United
States support to-day l6, 900 poor people in
the city Of New Orleans. This Is done at
immense cost. Every charitable institution
in the city has received assistance from the
National Government. Money amounting
10 one hundred and fifty thousand dollars 8
year is expended upon the levees by the
same, thus giving employment tohundreds
Of laborers, and all for the purpose Of pre-
venting the destructive overflow of the
delta Of the Mississippi. Now consider
well before you decide; think of these
things before you ask for the undertaking
of bearing the expenses of Government,
whether you are to bear the burden.

BLOCKADE Runners iu the United States
The Washington Chronicle says thai
smong the passengers who recently arriv'
ed in New York on the brigs Eunice and
Flag we're one hundred blockade runners
who boasted of their nefsrious practices
snd jiDgled their ill-gotten gold. Some
had passports, others merely certificates Of
discharge from British vessels, some Of
which sre known to have been in contra
band trade. For this reason, the officers
had no right to detsin the men, who are
now at large.
Undoubtedly the knowledge of these
facts was one reason for the issuing of the
recent order by Secretary Seward, the
latter part of which directs that all persons
not citizens of the United States who have
been engaged in blockade running shall
leave the country within given length
Of time, and, if they do not do so, shall be
arrested. Let this order be promptly and
strictly enforced. The presence of these
men, without any interest in common with
our government and without any sense of
honor TO restrain them, among Us, is in the
highest degree dangerous

The world can judge BY two exhibitions,
how wide is the contrast between Northern
and Southern civilization. On Saturday,
the rebel, General Whiting, dead prison
er Of war, was buried in New York city,
with the imposing ritual of the Episcopal
Church. More than 8 year ago the gal
LIANT Colonel Shaw fell at the head of his
regiment In an assault upon Fort Wagner.
When asked what disposition hAd been
made ofhis body, the brutaland character
istic reply was given "He is buried With
his niggers."
The war iS tul of these contrasts. On
thsOns side humanity, decency, kindness
the spirit Of forgiveness; on the other
cruelty, inhumAn ity, s disregard of ciyiliz.
ed usage bitter and malignant hate, fhat
delights in torture and revsls in barbArity.
The one is born of freedom, the other is the
blossom and fruit of slavery.

The Seat Of war.

The Chicago Tribune publishes the fol-
lowing description of the towns in North
Carolina which have been brought pro-
minently before the public attention by the
movements Of our armies. It will be
found very interesting and instructive:
FAYETTEVILLE is situated IN Cumberland
county, n. O., on the south bank Of the
Cape Fear river. Its population before
the commencement of the war was about
1000. Before the breaking out Of hostili.
ties the arsenal situated there furnished
employment for large number Of work
men. The city also contained three banks
and three newspapers. Fayetteville is at
the head of navigation on the Cape Fear
river, sixty miles northwest from VIII
miagton. Its distance from Goldsboro is
about ffty-seven miles, and from Raleigh
about sixty miles. From Fayetteville to
Danville the distance is about 1l5 miles,
nearly due north.
GoLpsBoRo in Wayne county, is 8
small post village, and contained prior to
the war about 1900 inhabitants. The
Wilmington and Weldon, and the Allan
tic and North Carolina Railroads form q
junction at this place. The town formerly
supported q seminary for each sex, and
three newspapers were published there
The distance thence to Raleigh is fifty miles,
to Weldon seventy miles, and to Dsnvills
lis miles.
RALEIGH, the Capital of the State, is sit
usted in Wake county, few miles west
of the Neuse river. It contains one of the
most extensive and beautiful capitol build
ings in the country. This structure is built
of granite, surrounded with massive COL
umns Of the same material after the style
of the Parthenon, and surmounted by q
handsome dome. Among its public insti-
tutions are the Deaf and Dumb Asylum,
and the Stste Lunatic Asylum. The Rs
leigh and Castor Railroad has its termi-
nus here; the North Carolina Road also
passes through the city. Its population
before the war was about 1000. The dis
tance from Raleigh to Weldon is seventy
two miles, in 8 northessterly direction,
and TO DAnville seYenty-hve miles, in 3
northwesterly direction.
a SALISBURY is situated In Rowan county,
ten miles west of the Yadkin river. The
North Carolina Railroad runs through this
town; and here also the great North Caro-
lima Turnpike road terminates. Its popula-
tion, before the rebellion was zOOe. From.
Salisbury to DanYille the distance is sbout
eighty-hve miles to Lynchburg l5s miles,
and to Richmond 205 miles.
DAEvnLE situated near the boundary of
the Virginia State line, on the Dan river,
is pleasantly situated on low ground, had
about 1000 inhabitants before the war, and
Is the terminus of the Richmond and Dan
vile Railroad. It's diItsncs from Rich
mond is 168 miles.

The New British MinIster.

Lord Lyons, whose health has failed
him. has resigned his position as British
Minister at Washington, and has been sue
ceeded by Sir Frederick Bruce, sson of the
seventh Lord Elginy whose name has been
made famous by his services to art and sci
ence in collecting those fine Greek sculp-
lures from the AeropOlis of Athens which
are known as the Elgin Marbles. He was
born in April, 1914, was called to the bar
at the age Of twenty-six, snd became an
Gttaehe ofthe British embassy at Washing
ton, in lS42, being then twenty-sight years
old. He has since hlled various i'm
pOrtant diplomatic positions in Hong
Kong, Boivis, Uruguay, and Egypt. In
1853 was appointed Ambassador Pekir :,
and Is credited with having represented
the interests Of his country in China, under
novel and trying circumstances, with re-
msrksble prudence sagacity and good
temper. BE is now in his fifty first year,
and bachelor, like his immediate prede-
cessOr. His official training, his former
acquaintance with American life, bis e1-
perienoe as q diplomatist, and his liberal
sentiments, alike fit him for the discharge
of his duties.
The London Times, in remarking upon
his appointment, thus alludes to g subject
of considerable interest to the people of
the United States:
Bys fortunate coincidence he will ar
rive in America Just when Mr.. Lincoln
will have entered upon his second term of
office. It will, perhaps have an opportune
significance thst new Minister should
thus be accredited to the United States
at the commencement Of this new period
in her snnals- A wild fancy had a little
while ago possession of the American
mind, that England and France contem-
plated sort of underhsnd recognition of
the Confederscy on the 4th of March, by
acknowledging Mr.. Lincoln as President
only Of those States which had taken part
in his election. The incredulous surprise
with which this announcement of our in
tentions was received on this side of the
water would have been sufficient to con-
vince the public of both countries of their
mistake. But the American are peculiarly
hard to convince sgainst their will and it
may be fortunate. therefore, thstIa marked
refutation will be given to their delusion.
Phe arrival of new Minister, accredited
to the Government whose authority we
stin acknowledge, will be more eonspicu-
Gus evidence Of the fsllAoy of these strange
snticipations than the return of Lord
Lyons.
