THE Richmond wing is now the most


sensitive and likewise the most contra
dictory paper we receive from the
South. 1t is chiefly devoted to highfa-
lutin eulogies on the character of the
people of Virginia, and to secreting all
suspicious and imputations on their
perfect trustworthiness in any matter
whatsoever, especially in regard to
their Union professions. We can aE-
ford to pardon all such talk as in the
nature, perhaps, of local necessity.
at the same time we remember that it
proceeds from paper lately suppressed
for want of fidelity to its own Union
professions. And also from a paper
that publishes npprovingIy the follow
ing article:
GEN. ROBERT f. LEE.-The Staunton
Spectator says:
On Friday last the trustees of Wash
ington College, at Lexington, unanf-
mOusly resolved to tender to Gen. Lee
the Presidency of that venerable insti-
tuition. Gen. Lee was long II Professor
at West Point, and now that his ''mili-
tary occupations gone" perhaps for
ever" we trust he may find it accord
with his ever patriotic impulses to be-
come the tutelar guardian of the many
ingenious youths of Virginia who
would flock around him there.
There is n pleasing propriety in the
idea that the College endowed by Wash
ingtOn, the chosen eNemplnr OF Robert
f. Lee, and farther endowed by the
Sages of the Cincinnati Society of which
his own father, Light Horse Harry
Lee was distinguished member,
should now receive n fostering influence
from his own immortal fame. And that
To-, 81
field was over, doubtless found comfort
in the thought that they rendered far
Their patriotic service by endOwing q
college for the youth of their country,
so we hope that Gen. Lee, now, that the
tolls of war have ended, may find his
great influence still rendering his coun-
try service in advancing that college to
greater usefulness, finding IL soothing
repose for himself amidst its peaceful
shades.

Under this heading the Nashville
(Tenn.) DispGtch gives an account from
official and other sources, of the losses
of the South i'll men and wealth by the
war:
provisional Governor Parsons, of
Alabama, has published a proclamation
relative to the reorganization of that
State, from which some astonishing
facts are developed concerning the loss
of life sustained by it during the late
war. 1t appears that Alabama fur
nished one hundred and twenty thou-
sand soldiers for the rebel army, OF
which number seventy thousand-more
than one-half-eithcr are dead or have
been disabled by the casualties of war.
This is a frighttnl proportion of killed
and disabled, and is certainly far in cX-
cess of the losses sustained by northern
States. If the ratio of loss was the same
in the other southern States as it ap-
pears in Alabama, the aggregate rebel
loss during the war, i'll dead and disabled
soldiers, could not have been less than
six hundred thousand. From these fig
ures we learn, also, the full extent OF
the depletion of the able-hOClied male
population of the South during the war.
The white population of Alabama in
1860 was nine hundred and sixty-four
thousand two hundred and one. The
number of men who entered the army
was therefore equivalent to one in seven
and a fraction of the population.
''If we apply the same ratio of enlist
ments in the other States that held ont
during the war, and make an approxi-
nation of tho numbers sent out
from the remainder of the slave States,
we shall have the following interesting
table.
