NE" 3oRK, July 8.-One Of the HeralPs
c"rrespondents, s who has recently been trav-
Cling extensively through sonth Carolina is
satisfied that the amount Of cotton still re-
manning In the interior Of that State ia verv
hrge, exceediDg any estimate which has vet
been puhlished. There Is raueh difficulty In
gtttng 1t to the seaboard, owing IN con
siderable degree to the slow progress which
Is being made by the railroad companies in
repairing their lines. These roads we're most
etisctnaliy DESTROYED By General Sherman,
bought, and the m oney to bug it viii haye
to be borrowed ut the North.
So greatly has the collapse of the rebel
cIr1ency shattered the faith of the s mth
Carolina planters IN paper money of all Kinds.
that they generally prefer ten cents per
pound IN gold for their cotton to fifteen in

NUMBER 1S.
The Fenian Movement What it is
Doing,


The New York world gives some alleged
facts in reference TO the Fenian organza-
ton. There are, at present, about five
hundred circles in the country, and they
are increasing at the rate Of one hundred
per month. The circles number from one
hundred 10 three hundred men,. There are
also three hundred female circles in the
country. presided over by Miss Ellen Ma
hony, who, is Female Head Center. She is
also Principal of the Normal School at
Chicago. The. monthly expenses of the
body amount to about 100000, and it is
said the tax of 800 man on the Fenians
in the United Statea is nearly paid up,
end the aggregate assessment will reach
100000. There is in New York military
engineering class of one hundred, taught by
an engineer formerly on McClellan's staff.
Subscriptions 10 large amounts are re-
ceived every week from all parts of the
country. A bank account is kept by the
Brotherhood. One Of the Bank-not Com
panies is printing eight per cent bonds in
the name of the Irish Republic. They
will be ready next week. They are In
and 000's. In the center will be figure
OF Liberty drawing sword, ana at the
sides vignettes of Emmett and Lincoln. 1t
is confidently hoped these will be taken up
rapidly, and large orders will come from
the country and West. 1t is stated that
John Morrissey had offered 10 take $780,
900 of the bonds. At the Fenian head
quarters in Duane street, they are contin-
ualy boxing up muskets, but of course no
information given where they are to be sent.

How Lee became a Rebel.

In the course Of a recent long letter, by
Hon. Montgomery Blair, on The Rebellion
where the guilt lies," he narrates the
following circumstance:
"Let me observe here that it was the fall
Of Sumpter that produced on the instant the
ordinance of secession, and filled Virginia
with troops from the gulf States TO carry it
before the people. Its effect upon ordinary
men may be conceived by the influence 1T
exerted over General Lee. My father was
authorized by the President and Mr.. Cam
eron, Secretary of War, 10 converse with
General Lee, and ascertain whether he
would accept the command of our army in
the field. The latter was written for, and
he met my father at my house, when they
conversed for an hour or more. 1t was a
few days before the ordinance was passed.
General Lee concluded the conversation by
saying secession was anarchy, and added,
if he owned The four million Of slaves in the
South, he wculd cheerfully sacrifice them
TO the Union; but he did not know how he
could draw his sword on his native State.
He said he would see General Scott on the
subject before he decided. A committee
from the Virginia convention, while my
father and the General conversed, were
hunting for him through the city. They
met on his leaving the house. He repaired
with them to consult the convention, as l
have since learned, about some mode of
settlement. The fall of Sumpter settled the
question Tor him and the convention"

THE NATIONS DEAD.


Four hundred thousand men,
The braye-the good-the true,
In tangled wood, in mountain glen,
On battle plain, in prison pen,
Lie dead for me and you
-Four hundred thousand of the brave,
Have made our ransomed soil their grave,
For me and you,
Good friend, for me and youl
In mspy a. a.fevered swamp,
BY many a black bayou,
In many cold frozen camp,
The weary sentinel ceased his tramp,
And died for me and you
From Western plain to ocean tide,
Are stretched the graves of those who died,
For me and you!
Good friend for me and youl
On many bloody plain,
Their ready swords they drew
And poured their life blood like the rain,
A home-a heritage to gain,
To gain for me and you!
Our brothers mustered side by side,
They marched and fought and brayely died,
For me and you
Good friend, for me and you!
Up many fortress wall,
They charged-those boys IN blue
mid surging smoke, and volleyed ball,
The bravest were the first to fall
To fall for me and you'll
These noble men-the nations pride
Four hundred thousand men have died,
For me and you!
Good friend, for me and you!
In treason's prison-hold,
Their martyr spirits grew
To stature like the saints of old,
While, amid agonies untold,
They starved for me and you!
The good, the patient, and the tried,
Four hundred thousand men have died,
For me and you!
Good friend, for me and you
A debt we ne'er can pay,
To them is justly due,
And to the nations latest day,
Our children's children still shall say,
''They died for me and you !"
Four hundred thousand of the brave,
Made this ransomed soil their grave,
For me and you'll
Good friend, for me and you! E. c. P.

From the Fredericksburg News
THE OLD CHIMNEY.

Fragment of other years,
Relic of days of old
All around thee waste appears,
Alone thou standest bold
Who built thee, aged pile?
Who hugged thy jambs of stone?
Where are they now, the while
Thou standest here alone?
Twas evening as a wanderers way,
That through the OLD DOMINION lay,
Led near chimney mouldering high
In melancholy majesty.
Dim twilight robed the circllng vale,
While fingered still on sunbeam pale,
As hopes upon the dying smile,
And hi the dark decaylng pile.
About thee, years agone,
A stately mansion rose
Here was flowery lawn
Where now the nightshade blows.
Perchance beside thy hearth
Youth dreamed of deathless names
And golden hopes had birth
That scared up with thy flames.
Here rosy childhood happy royed;
Here chivalry hath knelt and loved;
Pale sorrow, too, hath tarrled here,
And tears bedewed the burdened bier
Here merry youth and beauty thronged,
And viol's notes the dance prolonged
Here oft in moonlit holiness
Love whispered worldless tenderness.
Why standest thou, lone mark?
Gray ruins, mist, and mould
Are dripping where thy spark
Glimmered in times of old.
Within thy bosom now
The snake hath made his home
The owl from meath thy brow
Hoots in his nightly gloom.
The chirplng cricket's song has ceased,
The silent spider spreads his feast,
Here did thy winter welcome shine,
Where darkly creeps the poison vine.
So hopes too bright forsake the breast,
And canker comes a onstant guest,
Old fragmentl perish with thy lore,
No longer memory implore.
".
Yet stInd, lone, ancient column
Thy witness stands as lone
Like thee, sealed volume,
With story all unknown.
As on thy brow the light,
So gaily hopes on mine;
But soon twill sink in night
Here's ruin, such as thine.
Yes, stand thou still. | love to see
The budding ivy brolder thee,
As if, like infancy, to try
To smile off ages memory.
And thou, grim spoiler, spare time
This ruin, holier far than prime,
To stand, mid perished bloom, like trutl
Surviving life's dream woke in youth.
