ANITA GARIBALpI-Allfa familiar with
the career Of that great hero, Garibaldi,
will recall the melancholy death of bis
wife Anita, in the swamps on the Adri
attic coast. She fell victim to her devo-
ton to her noble husband, preferring to
share danger with him rather than enioy
comfort and luxury without him. For
some years movement has been on foot
to erect statute to her memory and the
movement has received a new impulse
from the action taken last month by the
municipal authorities of Ravenna, who
offer an appropropriate site 10 that city
for the proposed monument, and add two
thousand llvres to the subscription. We
understand that an appeal will soon be
made to the Italians in this country to aid
10 this graceful and patriotic work-a
beautiful tribute to brave. patriotic and
devoted wife, and, through Ter, to Carl.

THE EXCHANGE OF PRIsONERs-WHY IT WAS
sfleg INTERRUPTED. E 5aoa

Major General Hitchcock has publish
ed letter on the exchange of prisoners
He says the cause of the suspension was
the inhumanity of the rebel government.
and supports the policy. of Secretary
Stanton. Gen. H., in this letter, says
AS long as the cartel for the exchange
of prisoners was respected in the South,
it was faithfully observed by our Govern
its faithful execution by the Government
until the end Of the war, unless properly
revoked by competent authority, if the
rebel authorities had not violated its
terms under circumstances indeed OF great
aggravation." Gen. III. adds: THE day
must come when every true American
will be proud Of the reflection that the
Government was strong enough to crush
the rebellion without losing the smallest
element of its humanity or its dignity"

A RUSHING BUSINESS.

The rebel States rushed preeipitately
out of the Union and their delegations
rushed out of Congress in hot haste,
while the Democrats of the North cover
ed them as they rushed. They then rush
ed furiously into battle, talked aboutrush-
ing to Bunker Hill, there to call the roll
OF their slaves, didactually rusll for w ash
ington several times and got into Penn
sylvania, but were soon compelled to rush
back again. After four years of thisTush.
ing business, during which they rushed
several hundred thousand men into sol
diers' graves and several hundred thou
sand more into hopeless disability, they
found Sherman steadily and quietly sweep
lug the whole circuit of their dominion
Lee compelled to rush from Richmond
and surrendered at discretion, and Davis
and his Cabinet to rush toward Mexico
as the last refuge for personal safety. And
now. that they find themselves whipped
out of the ability to raise even a gcorpo-
raj S guard of fighting men, they desire to
rush back into the Union as hastily as
they rushed QUITO rush the blood stain
ed enemies Of the Republicinto the high
est. councils of the nation, without taking
time to cleanse themselves; and the
Democrats true to their policy of 186O-6l
now seek to cover them again in their
rushing propensities. In our opinion
now that the experiment of four years
of war has crushed the rushing traitors,
it is high time to stop this rushing haste,
and take matters of such momentous con-
cern more deliberately. We would sim
ply say to all these gentlemen, hold on,
keep cool; take time for reflection, profit
by experience, and wait for the second
sober thought.-CIR. Gaz. ..r..-l qre

RulHs oE rHE REBELLluH.

A Virginia paper speaks of the start
ling fatality which has ovretaken those
wh0were the political rebellion leaders OF
that State At the beginning fof seces-
sion, Virginia had one Cabinet Minister
who was secessionist, the Secretary, OF
War, John b. Floyd He Is dead. She
had two foreign Ministers who were Sc
cessionists, Hon. H K Meade and John
NJ. Daniel. Both are dead, Her two
Senators, Hunter and Mason, were ,seces-
sionistsAone is a prisoner the other an
ecile. Her oldest and most persistent,
and among her most influential citizens
who supported secession, and the man
who fired the first gun at Sumter, was
Edward Rufin. He IS dead. The rec
ognized leaders of the secessionists in
the State Convention were George w.
Randolph and President Tyler. Ran
doEph IS dying abroad, Tyler IS dead
She had three newspapers conspicuously
devoted to secession, the Richmond E.c-
amiRer the Richmond Enquirer, and the
Norfolk Argus The journals are all eX-
tinct, and the leading spirits ofall-Wise
Daniel and Lamb-ar dead. In brief
we are told there are not now ten men o.
conspicuous prominence in the secession
movements of January, 1861, who remain
to exercise-if they possess. the desire
their influence to thwart the movement
of the people toward loyalty and reunion

SOLDIERS STARVED AND BURIED AT AMDEs
SonVILLE, GEoRGIA.

] Mr.. Atwater, IN company with Miss
Clara Barton, passed through the city yes
terdayOn their return from Andersonville
where they had been participating in the
] burial of our starved prisoners 1t was OF
/ the suggestion Of Mr.. AtWater and Miss
Barton that the duty was thus promptly
performed He had been a prisoner there
and being clerk whose duty it was tC
keep a record of mortality, he retained q
copy for his own use, and was thus en-
abled to give the names of nearly all oi
the Il, ,920 who were starved and buried
there together with the place where they
| lie. They were buried in trenches which
were dug by the well prisoners wide
enough to admit body, say six feet. and
the dead, sometimes thirty at time. were
thus placed side by side with the number
and the name of each recorded
By this forethought Of Mr.. Atwater,
/ they were enabled at the late ceremonies
to inscribe on a headboard the names Of
all IN the trench where 1t stands The
graves were all fitted up with care, and
the cemetery of the martyred soldiers,
embracing ffty-one acres, was neatly I'M
closed with painted picket fence! iai 1
The number given above died between
the I'D of February, 1854, and the 10th
of April, 1865. Of this number about
700 are from Ohio, 400 from Indiana, and
600 from Kentucky. 4 -i
Mr.. Atwater says that Capt. Wertz is a
native of Switzerland; that he married a
rich widow of Louisiana, went on rebel
mission to Europe, and assumed the rel
sponsibility Of all the atrocities of Ander4
sonville. Had he not been arrested, the
injured soldiers would have saved the
government all trouble on his account /;
and should he ever go at liberty in this
country, he could not long escape their
just vengeance. Two packs of hounds
were kept at the prison, and every morn
ing taken round the limits to scent the
track of any one who may have left dur
ling the night. 1t was almost impossible
to escape, as. in addition to these prison
hounds, there was pack on every large
plantation.
Mr.. AtwaterB has no doubt that the
rebel Authorities at Richmond deliberate
lyradopted the starving policy by which
sixty-fve thousand of our men were mar
tyred IN the several prisons. He heard
from authoritative sources that the un-
healthy location at t'Andersonville was Sc
lected to aid in the work Of crucifxion !;
and he knows that many Of the surgeons
would have secured better treatment had
they been permitted. 80 -ll 55-g9e

SUNBEAM.

| Once knew a charming maiden,
Ger whose lip a sweet smile played;
Round her form halo fingered,
That ilIumed the darkest shade.
Sunny curls in radiant freedom,
Der each fair cheek clustering fell,
And impaired mystic glory,
To the brow we loved so well.
And her eyes, so hopeful, tender,
How they shone with light serene;
What world of joyous meaning
Dwell within their cheering beam!
As we gazed we thought of Heaven;
Ger us crept holy spell;
And we called this maiden aSunbeam''---
Twas name that suited well.
But alas! relentless Death
Stole our maiden, passing fair,
And of all her cherished beauty
Left us but lock of hair.
But he could not from us rayish
The blest memories of the past;
In our hearts, forever treasured,
We will keep them to the last.
And ndremembrance of her goodness,
Temper sweet and winning love,
VIII raise up our dropping spirits,
Till we aeeturisla hex dDoVe.
Though she's gone, and many mourn her,
Other Sunbeams meet our view, - +
To recall her Wondrous beauties,
And to prove these lines are true.
But alasl it sometimes happens
That we shun their light divine, 4ile
And persist in looking doWnwards,
Where earth's meteor pleasures shine.
Caring not for heavenly beauty
i Mirrored in human frame,
To remind poor erring mortals
Of the land from whence they came.
With a pure and touching radiance.
Oft it shines in ehildhood's eye,
And fair woman's smile reflects it sl Z
When the one beloved is nigh. sa.s
There is not human being .3 l5 $50 i
Toiling on life's dreary way, 81 nos.
That has not a special Sunbeam
To chase grief and gloom away.
Piercing through the clouds of passion,
It iIlunes the darkest mind = lltss5 g .
And, if welcomed as it merits, a

the LoNDoN TIMES ON the ATLANrlC CABLE.

The London Times, Speaking of the
Atlantic Gable, says No commercial
event of modern times has ever excited
more wide spread interest and deep re-
gret than this almost national disaster.
It believes the directors are about to take
steps to Immediately replace their cable
that has been lost. The Times further
remarks that it would be strange if, after
all the land should beat the Sea, and
Russians and Americans should complete
the telegraphic wire from London to
New York, by way of Siberia and Beh-
ring S Straits, before the success of this
cable. There can be no question as to
the possibility ofa land line; but England
inclines to the Atlantic route Both are
only question of time and money. Ii
the probable event of the Great Eastern
returning with tale of disaster, VIZ
might Immediately set about improving
our cable. 1t appears to be admitteC
that it is capable of improvement.

The partition of Virginia during the
war is likely to lead to lively controver-
sy respecting the Counties of Berkeley
and Jefferson. These counties were not
included within the original boundaries
of West Virginia, but were afterward
annexed, we believe, by act of the Leg.
islature. They are now claimed by Old
Virginia. The dispute will be carried ca S ! te t.
Gnestion of State division and creation
to be discussed, and it is not improbable
that the final settlement of the matter il
