Proclamation of Cor. McGrath of South

Afa.a % New York, Jan. s.
Governor Magrath of South Carolina has
issued proclamation calling upon all free
white men between the ages of sixteen and
sixty to come to the defence of Charleston,
willingly if they will. forcibly If necessary.
!. The Richmond Enquirer suggests the hang
ing Of certain merchants in Wilmington, who
refused to take Confederate money while our
fleet was before that city. 5a3
The Richmond Sentinel says the arrange
ment made with Mr.. Ingraham to bring
beef to Richmond at ailess price than six dol
lars per pound does not work. That he
charges now as much as the most extortionate
butcher, and that some new arrangement
must be made. 1t says that of the people of
Richmond, the great multitude, who by the
most unremitting labor cannot make one half
the sum paid to government clerks, are starv-
ing. This is fxed fact. h I'D be
The Richmond Wing is even more bitter on
Ingrahan, and says Virginia state officers are
furnished with prime beef by him at one dol
lar and sixty cents per pound.
