The following, from the neishhorho9d
Of Pocotaligo, 5. C.. was sent us ny Il
CAPTAIN in the 2Gth L. S, G. T.; who re-
ceived it from some one attending the
celebration. The Captain adds; In pri-
yate note to us: 81 trust the 'tecundlty
of Southern climate may extend its
influence to the resulting III rich
harvests; so that the daily, clamorouS
applications for TutioaS may grow small
by degrees, and encouragingly less:
"The morning was fine, and the day
warm: vet, Notwithstanding the heat OF
the weather, number of citizens, both
male and female, assembled at Ciftons
Mills, near Whippy Swamp, to COM
memorate the Independence OF l7l6. 1t
was easv to perceive that great changes
had taken place during the past four
wears. Before the war all such meetings
were attended either in carriages or on
horseback; but now nearly oil were pc
destrians. These reverses OF fortune,
although fresh in the memory OF the
neople present, did not overcome the
hilarity for which our people were always
remarkable. 1t is somewhat singular,
indeed, with what facility the Southern
people can accommodate themselves to
tarying circumstances. If We could not
obtain Confederate independence. We
have how exhibited the fervor, and eX-
pressed the sentiments, of Federal Re-
nublicalis. Like wise people, we do not
brood over our calamities in moody
silence; but. with cheerful aptitude and
manly resignation, look forward to better
times.
