CEASE FIn1sa AT THAT OrFIcER.-Tho
Montgomery, Alabama, Mel, dwelling
upon the fact that Southcrncrs generally
prefer their soldiers to represent them in
Congress and elsewhere, says:
"To vote for such men is not to hurl de-
ianco at the conqucror, but rather to
oxercize the privilege Of complimenting
gallant men, without athought whotherit it
may or, may not please the conqueror.
Tho true conquororis not only devoid Of
jealousy, but is willing to share his meal
and couch with tho vanquished. He has
learned to honor his prisoner from the
electric sympathy which is always gene
rated by bullets and bayonets.
aAt Rich Mountain, gallant South
Carolinian, in cemmard OF q section Of ar
tillery, had fought his guns we'll, until he
bod NOT mon left to work them. Our
lines weror broken, ard tho enemy was
.sasshing upon him. 4, shell dismountod
one of his pieces, killed his horse undcr
him, and shattered his right arm. Gain
ing his feet, the gallant fellow mounted
his remaining gun, and standing erect as
it dashed away undcr a shower Of bullets,
shook his sword at tho enemy with his
loft hand. Just at this moment, an order
camo, sharp and cloar from the Federal
limo, "Coaso firing at that Oficorw Such
spectacle of ardent yalor drew cponta-
noous shout Of applause oven from his
mortal foe. As it was thcn, so will It be
hereafter. When the fanatics of the
North abuse tho mon who considered it
their duty to obey the mandate of their
State, an universal shout will come from
the true Union men Of the North, Coasc

Low AND RESPECT Tho othor eve
1.ing, whilo attending q theatrical per-
fornance in this city, some allusion WAS
made by an actor to "Tho Flag" and
instantaneously tremendous cheer went
up from the Federal soldiers present.
Not the wild highland yell of our old
Confederates, but the measured English
cheer of the North. It bTough5 to our
mind many memories of tho past, and
suggested somo few thoughts ontho pres
emit. When last heard-said swift recol-
lection-this cheer of men in bluo came
up from the plateaus of Manassas and
in front of Yorktown trenches, from all
along cCleIlan's rafting line and outot
Chickahominy's bloody tangles. Yes,
and then, too-was quickly addod-the.
ferco. battle yell of the South rose to
meet it-for in those days it was the
first scream of tho eagle and thcn the
stroke of hisfashing beak. Tho Bonnie
Blue Flag had its friends then, and not
seldom, when this cheer was heard, did
its stars shine with tho brighton lus-
tire.
With the thought, camo such a tfdo of
fond remembrance that in it's own des-
pite, we forced our mind away. There is
but one flag now, said solemn duty, and
you are sworn to support it. These men
love that Hag-thoy have fought for it-4
they cheer it--and they are right, for you
know that you loved your own gallant
banner ere Appomattox pulled it down.
Looking at the matter in this light,
every bitterness evoked by that shout
exultant passed away. 1t is natural
is it not-that the North should love the
dag, and suficient--is it not-that the
South should respect and support it?
With this understanding, the huttor of
its folds will awake no rancor among us
the sound of its cheering stir up no
bitter blood. Sentiment is a weak thing
for nations to rely on, but principle can
weld tighter than steel. Affectionate de-
yotion we have not-look to some other
generation for that-but trust us for the
uttermost farthing of our sworn duty
for respect in peace and maintenance in
war.

From The Richmond Times.

FASHION begins to re-assert its empire
in the South. During the war man
was deemed fortunate if he owned a
couple of fig bushes, for then he was sure
of having his family provided with suit
of primitive clothes as good as that worn
by our first parents, if things camo to the
worst. Mon and women did not care
much what they wore, 50 they woro some
thing. Nor was the style or cut Of gar
ments much regarded, for there was
sort of carnival of old clothes. 1t was
not uncommon to meet u gentleman
with coat or pantaloons which looked
as if they had been cat out with broad
axe, and nailed together hurriodly by q
rough carpenter. The hopatterns, too, were
as strongly spicod with variety as well w
IS with tho odor of great antiquity. The
old swallow-tail and shad-belly coat,
(Which is thought by many to bo the
style worn by Noah whom he harangucd
the antediluvians on the probabilities OF
an unprecented froshct), was exhumcd
and restored to general favor. Trow-
sers made in tho good old-fashioned way,
with an apron or sort Of drop-curtain in
front, were brought to light by venerable
and respectable gentlemen, who have
never been satisfied with modern innova-
tions in dress, and for o long time battled
stubbornly against them Hats, not in
aptly designated as complexities, stove
pipes and bcc-gums by many soldiers of
Lees army, whenever they encountered
the lucllless wearcr and called upon him
s:to como out Of it" were very prevalent
among sobersided civilians; coon-skins
and skull-caps of a strange and unique
model, were worn in bold and utter dof-
anco of all previous propriotios of fashion.

A CARD FROM "P. w. A."-Wo take
great pleasure in laying before our read
ors tho following card Of Mr.. alexander,
hoping that.it will fall into the hands Of
somc one who may &c ablo to aid himf in
the work which he proposes:
Persona Interested in the history OF the
late war, who have military orders and
maps, places of campaigns, battles and
seges, private letters from the army, Con-
gressional documents, and messages OF
the President and Governors of the South
ern States, would confer a great favor,
besides contributing somewhat to vindi-
cation of@e truth of history, by sending
themt me at this place. The Confsdcr-
ato archives and records were either des-
troyed or carried to Washington, as were
the private papers and memoranda of
nearly all the Southern commanders.
Honco tho necessity Of this appeal to the
officers and soldiers Of thos Confederate
army and navy, and citizens generally.
Letters are also solicited from parties
possessing important information touch
ing our late unfortunate struggle, and
from prisoners who wcro confined at the
North.
Letters, packages, &C., will be preserved
and returned if desired.

similar spirit in yielding TO tho nccossi-
ties of tho times. The distensions of
crinoline were neglected, and our danes
and damscls looked as lovely and 'attrac-
tive in homo-spun and linseys, as they
ever done in silks and satins. Bonnets OF
the coal gcuttle, gig-top and chiclen-coop
type, fossils of fashion which wero the
pride and glory of the Elizabothian age,
were drawn forth from dusty closets and
old-time band-boxcy, and were conscrlbcd,
and forced into service. Shoes, which
were regular clod-l1nocl1ers and beetle
crushers covered tender toes and we'll
turned ankles, which had been used to
the finest calf-skin and most delicate mo-
rocco. There was eminent good sense
and god taste in all this, and We hope
that the lessons of wisdom and economy
inculcated by tho war, will not be forgot
ten now at its conclusion.
No people can loss afford to be extrav-
agant or foolishly fashionable than we.
We hope that the despotism OF fashion,
and it's ruinous expenditures, will mover
again be exercised over our people. If
our ladies choose to indulge in the harm
less and inexpensive little yanities Of
awater-falls" and Gratis and MICE" SO well
and good. But we hope the timo will
never come again, when new dress will
be needed every week and new bonnet

GENEROUS SENTIMENTS. Gen. Grant
thus writes in response TO an invitation to
attend meeting Of the "Union Commis-
sion," in the city of New York: GLOW
ever wo may have differed from our
Southern brethren in the events of the
last four years, We havc now bocomo ono
people, and with but one interest y
tswhatever is calculated to increase the
friendship and brothorly feeling between
the two sections ofour country I heartily
approve Of"
Tho Richmond Wig commenting on
the foregoing extract from tho lottor of
Gen. Grant appropriately observes:
II is striking feature in the develop
mefit of Northern sentiment, that those
who have borno the most prominent and
most succossfui part in restoring the
Southern States to the Union, are those
now most in favor of healing the lacera-
tions of war, OIL soothing wounded sensi-
bilities and re-uniting tho people of tho
two sections in the bonds Of harmonious
brotherhood. Those who advocate vim
diotivo and huniliating measures are, for
the most part, the men who neither ex-
posed their lives nor contributed thoir
services in tho cause Of the Union. They
can only be lil1ened to that wretchcd class
who prowl about the fields of slaughter
when all danger is over, to plunder the
dead and to slay and rob the wounded.
Gen. Sherman fifty compared them to old
Jack Falstaff, who feigned death while
the fight was going on, but at its conclu-
sion, boro of the body of the gallant
Percy, slain by Prince Hal, to socuro tho
"rcward of valor."
