our country to heal the wounds that have
been made. Our country has been SCARED
all over. Then why can't we approach
each other on principles that are right
in themselves and which will be produc.
tive of good to all. The dsv is not far dis
tsnt when we shall feel like some family
that has had deep and desperate feud,
the different members of which have some
lime met and compared the evils and suf-
ferings they have inflicted on each other.
They had eeen the influence of their error
and its result, ard governed by generous
spirit OF conciliation they had become mu-
tually torbesring and iOrgiving, and re-
turr ed to their old habits of fraternal kind
ness, and become better friends than ever.
Then let US consider that this feud which
alternsted US has been settled and adjusted
TO mutual satisfaction, and that we come
together to be bound by frmer bonds of
love, respect and confidence than ever.
The North cannot get along without the
South, nor the South without the North,
the East without the West, nor the West
without the East and say it is our duty
to do all that within our power lies to per-
petuste and make stronger the bands of our
Union, seeing that it is for the common
good of all that we should be united. 1
tael tbst this Union, though but the cres-
ton of century, is to be perpetusted fer

SOUTHERN NEWS,

NEW 1ORK, september II.
A pilot boat reports having seen, at six
o'clock last evening, eight miles north of
Barnegste, the yachts Henrietta and Fleet

miles ahead. The wind was light.
A Beaufort letter of the 9Th says that not
single house can be had at Newberne,
and warns Northerners who intend emf.
grating there to be prepared accordingly.
The lack of mechanics, saw mills and
building material, combined with the re-
fussl of property holders who have been
identified with the rebellion to sell any of
the thousands of acres of timber land within
sight of Newberne, prevents any progress
in building by enterprising persons.
It is proposed TO hold mass meetings in
Newberne, Beaufort and Wilmington to
demand the enforcement of the confscatiou
act if this prescription policy is not aban-
doned.
A Chamber of Commerce is about being
organized in Newberne.

FROM NEW YORK,

The Posts Washington special says
The order mastering out the colored troops
enlisted in the Northern STATES, is simply
a measure to reduce the army expenses.
This order has no effect upon organizations
of colored troops which were enlisted in
the Southern States.
Advices from, Mexico received here to-
day, show that former reports of the hope
lessness of the liberal cause were greatly
exaggerated.
At meeting of the Bank officers to-
day, resolutions were adopted by vote of
twenty. mine to twelve that in the opinion
of the meeting, 8 system of redemption of
National Bank notes in conformity to law
ought to be adopted. Further action will
be had at meeting next week.
The latest advices from Hayti through
official sources state that though the revo-
lutionists have held out longer than was
expected, they must submit before long.
The rebellion has been prolonged at Cape
HsytIes, because CT ffrsrd, by investing it,
hoped to weary out the rebel garrison

mined measures, and bring matters to
close.

Witness desired 10 make a correction
He and Father Wheelan were not Chan
lalns of Andersonville prison, but had rem
dered gratuitous services there as priests.
Charles Tibets Of the 4th Iowa regiment
testified to the cruelties of Captain Wirx
and the filthy condition of the grounds.
The filth was buried from foot to eighteen
inches deep, but when rain fell it was all
washed out, filed with lice and maggots,
and this extended throughout the prison.
On one occasion Wirz said to witness and
MS companions, bring me Bill Crsndell
and IN give you $4,000 out of my own
pocket, and you young sons of bitches rll
make you smell hell before night. You
are sentenced to woik in the grave
yard every day and be put on half
ratlons, stand in stocks at night and be last
men exchanged. II you don't work I'll
put you on top of the dead and cover YOU
up: The next day, Wirz, in pursuance of
orders, sent them 10 Florence.
John Il. Goldsmith, of the 18th Illinois
infantry, prisoner at Andersonville, tes-
titled that he was detained to perform cler.
ical duty in Capt. WirZ's Office. An order
was issued by Wirz for the guards to fire
upon any one who spoke to them, and
verbal order was given to rebel sergeants
thst IN case the Union prisoners should
fall to report any of the missing men, they
should be placed in stocks or be bucked
and gagged. The rations Issued to the
prisoners were just half in quantity to each
man compared with those issued to the
rebel troops For three days Captain Wirz
increased the ration of meal and peas to q
pound and quarter day, and then he |
put them back to the old standard, remark |
ing 'as the Yankees were getting damned |
saucy he would bring them to their milk" |
Witness had heard Wirz say that he was |
doing more good than he could in the field, |
and that he whipped more men than Gen. |
Johnston did. This was in the latter part
OF last January. Witness, while employed
IN Wirzs otice, made out furlough for
rebel soldier, who said he had earned it by
killing Union prisoner-he killed Henry
Lackmore OF the Pennsylvania reserves.
On cross examination the witness said
that Capt. Wirz ordered him to write out
; furlough for thirty days for rebel SOL
1ier, saying that he had earned it.
Joseph Culver, of the 1st Wis, among
'ther instances of cruelty, mentioned mat
/ chain gang of twelve men complained
because one of their number was very of
ensive from disIrhea. This man was de.
ached and left to himself. The thirty.
wo pound ball still fastened to his leg,
nd the iron collar round his neck. The
rons we're not taken from the man until
le died. Had heard WiTz declars that he
vas doing more good for the confsderacy
han any general in the field.
Court adjourned until tomorrow.

There is no fact In history further be-

of the lesders of the Democratic party, as
it existed in 1860, went into the rebellion
of 1861. The Woe President elected by it
became Msjor General OF the rebellion,
as did also its Secretary Ct the Treasury,

the Interior. Gf its thirty-eight Senator'S

House of Repres entstves, at least sixty

CANTON, OHIO, September IL.
The mass meeting and soldiers reunion
to day was q complete success. From ter
to twelve thousand persons were present.
and listened to able speeches by Generals
Cox and Geiger and Chaplain Collier.
General Cox made logical speech, COM
pletely reviewing and refuting the doctrine
Of State Rights, which he declared the
source of the rebellion. He holds that the
scene of the conflict is merely transferred
from the field to the polls, and that the
struggle will not be ended till the secession
idea has been crushed and made as odious
as TOryism in the days of the Revolution.
This is the controlling idea of the cam
pslgn.
Several hundred soldiers psrtook of 8
splendid dinner, and the utmost enthu
sissm prevailed.

a Snake Carried in a Lady's CrinOline

snake Carried I'm a Lady's CrinOIiue.
One day last week q party of young
folks, male and female, in the township Of
Franklin, went TO the whortleberry rock, q
. distance Of about eight miles from the
neighborhoOd. After reaching the rock
the day was spent in the usual Wsy-by
picking berries and wandering over the
vast plain of rock. Evening came, and
the parties returned TO their homes. Uue
young lady, after reaching her residence
sRd performing her customary work about
the house, repaired to her room to retire
Tor the night and, upon undressing, what
did she discover nicely entwined around
her waist between her crinoline and under
garments, but snake fully twenty inches
IN length. AS might be expected, on max
ing such discovery, the lsdy's feelings
can be better imagined than described.
She gave the alarm, when other inmates
OF the house came to the room and dis
patched his snakeship. 1t turned out TO be
one of the spotted adder species, which is
very numerous on the rock. The query is,
how did the reptile manage to get in that
position2 The only way such can be sc.
countep for is this: Sometime during the
day the young woman must have been sit
ting down on the rock, and the broad
skirts now worn might possibly have COW
cred the snake, which in its endeaEors TO
escape got between the garments, and SO
worked Itself up to the waist unfelt by the
party. She states that several times dur
ing the day and evening she felt sort of
gripping sensation about her body, but del.
icacy in company constrained ner to bear
it rather than attempt TO ascertain the
cause.-HwntiHgdon &c E J'sssrnaL
