TaR RICHMOND WHIG.-There is a
lurking bitterdess discoverable in almost
every number and column of the Rich
mond Wing which does not augur the
very best results, The following is a
slight specimen;
"NRGRo wAGBs.-some of our excel
lent friends on the other side of the Po-
tomac are greatly shocked at the wages
offered by the farmers and planters of
Virginia for negro labor. 1t does not,
however, seem TO have occurred to them
that the only remedy within their reach
is to offer larger wages themselves, and
thus attract TO their own States labor
they appreciate so highly, and citizen
ship anu association they so much es.
teem."

A CHARLESTON BEAUTY.-The follow
ing is an extract from the letter of a
naval officer on board one of the United
States gunboats near Charleston, South
Carolina:
saw an angel few days ago, in the
shape Of beautiful young lady, who
came on board with her father to take
the oath. Without exception she was
the most beautiful being that ever had
the pleasure to feast my eyes upon.
When saw her come alongside, being
officer of the deck, | rushed to the gang
way, and was very attentive in seeing
her over the side safely, and waiting up
on her up to the quarter deck. Her
father was engaged with the captain,
and took the opportunity to engage in
conversation with the charmer. found
her rather modest and diffident, not hav-
ing yet made her debut in society, but
she did very well.
/ was at the time chewing tobacco,
which Of course was very ungallant on
my part. She noticed it, and what do
you think? Why, she remarked that
"she had not been able to obtain any to-
bacco for real long time, and as for
snuff, she had not had dip, she did not
know when" l having good sized
piece In my pocket offered it to her,
when, with sparkling eyes and beam
of joy and delight upon her counter
ance, she asked 'if she could have the
whole of it," / answered with smile
Certainly" when she took a good sized
quid and commenced chewing and spit
ting with the gusto of an able seaman.
How my idea of beauty vanished

RRoccUPATIoS AND EMIGRATION. Rev.
J. F. Ware of Baltimore in communi.
cation TO the Christian Register, re-
marks:
"If ever anything demanded fore
thought and system, the matter of the
re-occupation of the Southern States
does. use the word reoccupation be-
cause, virtually, 1t is largely TO be that.
/ do not see how, especially in Virginia,
any man is to know and reclaim his
own, Landmarks of every sort-houses,
trees, fences, even roads-are obliter-
ated and title deeds have disappeared
under the ruthless foraging of an enter
prising or curious soldiery. Some sort
of squatterism seems inevitable-an oc-
cupation which will go in the place of
ownership; which will have to get
some sort of legal sauction,or be open to
perpetual dispute and difficulty. Large
uncultivatcd tracts, held by a single
person, will become smaller cultivated
homesteads in the hands of many. A
dispossessed,a partially occupied country
is to be reoccupied. The old things of
1t are wholly passed everything must
become new
In reference to the importance of
systematic emigration, the same gentle
man suggests, with excellent Judgment.
the formation Of Emigrant Aid Socie-
ties in furtherance of this desirable
movement,
"' Combination is wanted not so
mnch the New England man as New
England-her whole moral, educational
social, religious apparatus. 1t is new
centres at which shah be localized, from
which shall radiate, her best peculiari-
ties where men and women shall have
mutual support, and the support of old,
time-honored institutions. In word,
the moReyed charity of New England,
signalized since our troubles began, by
its zeal in Sanitary Commissions, Sol
diers' Aid Societies, Kansas Emigration,
and Freedmen's Education, should now
be turned toward sending colonies into
the South, which shall be nuclei for man
ufacture and agriculture. 1t is the
'village'-the pride and power of New
England-which the South needs and
, "s.nas; not the Exiled New Highlander,
out Ule New EnslduucI WIFI al MS
household gods-his church, his school,
his honorable industry and thrift, mis-
savings bank, and the culture which
grows Of these, and makes the graduate
of the common school the more than
peer of the snowy educations Of the
more pretentions private institutions Of
the South. If there be genuine phi
lanthrophic desire at the North to bene-
fit, at this crisis, the South, let it take
shape in sending a well-selected and fit
ted colony into this State-so rich in
all material resources-which shall take
root and shape, and prove by its actual
presence and life, what is that so-much-
talked-of thing which has subdued
granite, conquered ice, tanned the sea-
sons, and made region frowned upon
by nature most favored in the sight of
God and man. A combined, systematic
effort of this kind will do more towards
really helping the South than all the in
dividual migration which runs through
our railcars, steamboats, and hotels"

AN IMPORTANT DEcIsIoN.-The Boston

An IMPORTANT DECIsI0N.-The Boston
Journal says:
Judge Lowell Of the U. S. District
Court gave an important decision last
week, to the effect that certain bales Of
cotton picked up by the U. s. steamer
Vicksburg, was properly claimed as
prize property by the United States. 1t
has heretofore been the practice in New
York to allow the finder to keep he cot
ton and goods so picked up, although
the point has not been, previous tp this
decision, adjudicated. Judge Lowells
decision, therefore, establishes s very
important precedent.

SHOT FOR RESISTING THE GUARD.-The
Burlington Free Press says that some
excitement was occasioned Monday af-
ternoon, by report of the shooting of
two men at the hospital. AS near as
we learn, several soldiers undertook to
interfere with an arrest and to release
their comrade, when the officer fred his
revolver, the shot passing through the
body Of one man and wounding anoth-
err 1t was said the comrades of the
wounded men procured arms and were
bent on vengeance but we have heard
of no collision, and presume there will
be none.
p. S.-The officers name is Lieut.. IN

The wounded men are soldiers Of the

did not fire till violent hands were laid
on him, when he fired twice, with the
