CHARLESTON HOTEL, Nov. /, 1868
Mr.. EDITOR: This "cradle of rebellion" so
called,) does not appear to have suffered much
from the war. except what was caused by fire.
Business is at fever heat; everybody appears TO
be on dead run to make up for lost time. |
have never seen Cincinnati, Chicago or Louis
vile more alive with business than this city is at
this time. | notice considerable building, or
rather repairing buildings, going on All
that part of the city fronting the Charles
ton Hotel and running towards the railroad
depot appears to have escaped the shells
thrown into the city. The hotel and many
other buildings had shells to go through them.
but not exploding in them did little damage and
the holes were soon patched up. Not so be-
tween this hotel and the Mills House, nearly all
on both sides of the street being knocked into
mortar. How the Mills House escaped so well.
is mystery to me- 1t will be opened to the
public soon. | visited of course, all that
is left OF the famous hall wherein secession first
showed its head. The visit caused little
twitch of sadness when | thought OF the dear
friends | had .here with six years
ago. Such good and gallant friends as Gordon
Tanner one does not have often. Then we had
there the Pockets" representative, Gavit, now
departed, and many Others that have not space
to enumerate. The visit could not but bring to
mind the grand and powerful debate between the
leader OF the boilers, Willism L. Yancey, and
the champion of non-interv from own
Northwest, the honorable and manly George f.
Pugh, who, il recolect rightly, BY the force OF
his logic and facts, forced the fire eaters to ad
nit that bis (Yancey's) doctrine "was step
further than the Democracy ever took before
while in his powerful speech, just closed. be was
trying TO prove that bis new ideas had always
been the doctrine of the Democratic party. Poor
Yancey though great in intellect, had to an
swer as all will have to, to higher Power.
General Howard is now in the city, trying to do
something with his freedmen. he has his
hands full and A am inclined to think from
what have seen and heard, he is anxious the
Legislature should take the job off his hands.
Some care little about the matter, and remark
at times, LET Howard pound away; somebody
will get tired as soon as we will" The Bureau
for Freedmen is costing too much for the good

of man on his part, they captured 10

G~ PATENT TANNING M11L.-We have
examined machine for cleaning all kinds
of grain and seeds at the house of Mat
thews s. Co., and We can say without ex-
aggeratiOn that it far excels anything that
we have ever seen. 1t separates clover
from timothy, smut, cheat cookie, and all
filth from wheat. 1t also cleaned timothy
seed from all manner of filth at one oper-
alton. For references call on Matthews &
Co., or Frost & Co. We learn that the
mill will be on exhibition at Frost & Co.'S,
hay packing house, in Centre Wheeling,
on Wednesday forenoon, and at Matthews
& Cos, in the afternoon. The inventor may
be consulted and the mill seen in operation
at the Scott House and warehouse at Mar
tinsville, O.
We learn that Messrs. Rice & Swartz,
Hoyle, Moore, Presburg, and number of
others have taken hold of the business,
and that the inventor is giving every man
an opportunity of making and selling the
mills. They are paying him one-fourth
the profits when the mills are sold. We
think it advisable for business men to call
and see the mill, and investigate for them
selves. This machine is known as Ogborn
& Co.'S Tanning Mill. 1t

NEw YORK. Jan. 16.-Parties from North
Carolina report that new rebel ram on
the Roanoke river is nearly finished. She
is an improvement on the Albemarle.
A company with sub marine implements
are on their way to Plymouth to see if the
Albemarle can be raised in time to meet
an expected attack from the new ram,
which is to move with the rebel ram at
Arlington above Nebern, which is now in
good condition and only waiting for the
Hood tides, which the spring showers will
bring.
The expected arrival of one of the light
draught monitors in the waters of North
Caroline, has given the assurance that ar :
engagements have been made to meet these
rams, which are very formidable.
Deserters from Wilmington state that
Fort Fisher was gsrrisonsd by unwilling
conscripts at the time the recent attack
was made, who we're anxious to surrender
the Fort, had an opportunity been offered.
