The Future Of the South.

There is hopeful future for the South, but it
is not to be found in the counsels of those time
servers and submissionists who are for Welding
unconditional obedience to every behest of DO
lilcal party in power, AMI are anxious that those
IN authority may spit upon them that they NAV
give evidence of their dociity. The South has
nothing OF good to expect from its timid and mer
cenary press. 1t has nothing of good to expect
from misrepresentation in Congress-, who claim
as decisive qualification, and peculiar merit
that they swear that in war which invaded
the homes of the South they were the heartless
creatures who stood mute and neutral in the face
OF the grand tragedy that ran with blood and
tears, withoutaid, comfort or countenance to their
countrymen dying before their eyes, reaching
their hands for bread, fighting and starving be-
neafn the glorious banners of Lee and Jackson,
and Johns ton, and Pickett, and Gordon!
| Coupsels obtained from such sources are not
what the South needs, or what she should accept,
ohe should take new lesson of courage and self
| respect. She should re assert some of her former
/ spirit She should rest her hopes in some brave
organization of public opinion, resolved to concede
nothing to the North but what was decided in the
issues of the war;; determined to resist every en-
chroachment upon her constitutional rights
prompt t o claim the benefit of the Constitution as
Of old, and steadily and even deGantly, asserting
the ancient landmarks in the Union Such par
1ty may restore the fallen fortunes of the South
1t will, at least, erect again the self respect and
pride-'hose high standards of personal character
which formerly distinguished this part of the
Union. Nothing is to be gained by the people of
the South regarding themselves as ticket>of leave
men or any other kind of probationary vagabonds;
such behavior invites insult and oppression.-Ed

A Singular Story.

The Macon Telegraph tells the following sac
story of the war:
81 learned on yesterday the circumstances O.
a melancholy quand ary in which Young lad y
one of the most estimable and lovely in this
part Of the country, was placed. A gallanI
young offic er was betrothed to her. He fell or
the fatal field of Sharpsburg. She loved him
dearly, and was a afflict ed far beyond what ladies
of a mere buoyant tenn per would have suffered
She went into mourning, secluded herself from
society, devoted herself 10 rel eliglons and chari
liable deeds, and was s.dead 10 the world -
A few months ago, young gentlemen of gr- al
wealth, superior talents, and handsome person
accidentally formed her acqu aintance in the
progress OF business transaction. He was fas
cinated with her; persevered till he overcame
ber aversion little by little, and finally they be-
came engaged to be married only a fortnight
ago. She had air eady made ou, her order for
elegant rousseau. But four days ago. the
first lover returned. Ha had been carried to
Northern hospital from the battle field, with 10
turned. He has frightful scar across his face
only one eye, is an invalid for life, ani is poor;
but in his BOSOM burns manly and noble soul
The poor girl has shut herself up, and will not
see either OF them. The meeting between her
and her first lover the other day, is said to have
been distressing. HIS letters had failed to reach
her, and she firmly believed he was dead till he
stood be ore her, the CHASTITY ruin Of her lover,
once SO handsome and manly. Poor fellow
lave caught glimpse of him once as he passed
along the street, with his crutches and melan-
choy face. God bless him!''

Remarkable Views of MIR. Seward,

MIR. Seward is power in the Government.
What does he say on the subject7 Let US see.
The N ew York correspondent of the Macon
(Ga.) Telegra ph, writing on the 10th of October,
says
ssSince 1 have introduced Mr.. Stewards name,
will re fer to conversation he had few days
since with Tharlow Weed Jefferson Davis be-
in the subject. Weed said Mr.. Davis should
be hanged, and EXPIRE ssed himself quite warmly
on the subject. Mr. Seward then propounded
the query: ssWhy should you hang him 3" to
which Weed replied. 81 would hang him for
treascn.'' Mr.. Seward responded In his ener-
getc way: ssWe cannot hang Davis without
first convicting him, and | think no impartial
jury would do that" Weed said: s'His gull
is already established, and his conviction should
n not be dficalt.'' But Mr.. Seward maintained
that no jury could be found to convict him, and
added in a significant way: "And oven if we
should hang him it would be no great moral les
son to the world - Gentlemen who were pres
ent during the conversation infer from it that
Mr.. Davis 3 life is safe at least.''

II Must Co."

common word and yet how full of meaning !!
"The school bell is ringing says the innocent
little prattler at play, 81 must go.' The hour
of labor has come,' says the man of toll, land l
must CO." 'sAnother weary, cherries, thankless
day calls me to the sanotum," says the editor
and 81 must go" 81 have q weighty case'on hand
to day, demanding ali my time and attention, -
says the lawyer, and 81 must go.--as if the uni
versal motto of the age is heard echoed and re-
echoed OF every side, by old and young, rich and
poor. happy and miserable.
All must go, all going, yet the restless,
heaving surging tide of human ty is new er gone
We might perhaps introduce this expressive
phrase into scenes OF greater length and of more
than ordinary interest; but having other thoughts
and other duties to look after, we, too, 'must CO.
and be content with sketching ono or two.
'''Tis getting late,' says the lover to the loved
| cne, and ''I must go' must bid farewell, for d
time, to those charmed, blissfu hours, once more
to miEgie in the cares and perplexities of q busy
| world" Then clasping her fondy to his bosom,
and passionately pressing those sweet lips to his
own, he is gone till those happy days may return,
or perchance till he may lead the gentle charmer
of his life willing captive to the hymenial altar.
| One short year rolls round, and how changed
the scene Again, as then, it is night. A wan,
pale being, of emacated and fragile form, is ly-
ing on her couch. The long weary days, and
| weary nights have passed away. Her hours of
anguish are no more. The 1nSldious destroyer
has done his work. Friends near and dear are
around her-a tender husband bends over her
but these cannot arrest the hand Of disease or
postpone the parting hour. s'IIark the angels
are whispering 'cOne, come = and | must 90 ::
countless shining ones in white are waiting to
| welcome mel must go. Farewell till we meet
in heaven !" The snowy hand falls lifeless, nerve
less by her side; smile of ineffable sweetness
and beauty rests on those pallid, marble like fea-
lures, and she is gone-gone forever
Gentle reader like her, when the last of earth
shall come, may you hear the welcoming of whis-
pering angels, like her respond, 81 must go!''

BashfuI Men.
Mrs. Denison, in speaking of men, says !;

Mrs. Denison, in speaking of men, says;
We never yet saw genuinely bashful man whs
was n OF the soul of honor. Though such ma,
blush and stammer, and shrug their shoulders
awkwardly, unable to throw off with ease the
thoughts they would express, yet commend then
to us for friends.
There are fine touches in their characters that
time will mellow and bring out, perceptions as
delicate as the faintest tint of the unfoded rose
and their thoughts are none the less refined and
beautiful, although they do not flow with the
impetuosity of the shallow streamlet.
We are astonished that such men are not appre-
precia ted that ladies with really good hearts
and cultivated intellects will reward the gallant
Mustachio Braness with smiles and at tenton
because he can fold a shawl gracefully and handy
compliments with Partisan elegance, while they
will not condescend to look upon the worthier
man who feels for them reverence great that
every mute glance is worship.
The man who is bashful in the presence Of la
dies is their defender when the free tongue of
SANDER would defame it is not he who will not
boast of conquests or dares talk of failings that
exist in Imagination only; his cheek will blush
with resentment, his eyes flashing with anger,
to here the nam of woman coupled with course
oath and yet he would die to defend them is
least honored by the majority of our sex.
Who ever heard of bashful libertine -! The
anomaly was never seen. Ease and elegance are
his requisites upon his lips sit fattery, ready to
pay court alike to black eyes and blue; he is nev-
non plussed he never bushes. For a glance
he is in raptures for a word he would lay down
his life. Yet it is he who fills vile city dens
with wrecks of female purity it is he who pro-
fanes the holy name of mother; desolates the
shrine of domestic happiness ruins the heart
that trusts in him; pollutes the very air he
breathes; all under the mask of gentleman.
Ladies, word in your Have you lovers,
and would you possess worthy husband Choose
him whose delicacy of department, whose
of your worth leads him to stand aloof, while
others crowd around you If he bushes, STAN
even at your approach, consider them SO
ny signs Of exalted opinion of your sex. If he is
retiring and modest, let not thousand fortunes
weigh him down in the balance, for depend upon
it, with him your life will be happier with pow
erty than with many another surrounded by the
splendor of palaces

For the Snactatnr


Mr.. EDIroR:-In the ssSpectator'' of the l4th
inst, gave the outlines of plan for the or
ganization Ind conduct of society, whose OBJ
ject it should be to collect and pay out funds
for the education ofindigent children of deceased
| soldiers. promised in that communication to
show that the money can be spared by the peo-
pie. will now, by your permission, attempt
| it:
| Since the surrender of Gen'l Lee, and the
consequent disband ment of the army and return
| of the young men to their homes, there has
scarcely been member of our county papers
issu ed, which did not give an account of tour
nament held in some part of the county--of the
brilliant feats Of fhcrsemanship performe by the
chivarous nights, and of the approving smiles
of the beautiful ladies', who graced the occasion
with their presence. I will give the financial
aspect of one of these tournaments, which l at
tended, and upon that argue that the money
wanted can be sp ared. At this tournament
about thirty dollars were paid by the knights
before the riding commenced. The splendid
dinner gotten up for the occasion must have cost
at least twenty more--to say nothing of the
money spent for other p urposes.
This one instance satisfies the prop ositon
but when We take into the account all the SINH
lar tournam ents held in the county the argument
becomes still stronger. 1t shows another thing
that the pockets Of the people can be easily
reached through their desire for amusement.
have not the least doubt that if evsn now q
'sgrand Circus and Menagirie" were to pass
.hro ugh the county, the proprietors would gath
or up enough greenb backs to educate all the in
dgent children of deceased soldiers for at least
half session. Now might not society, foru-
I'd upon the plan l have suggested, besides
heir regular collections and subscriptions, OBJ
,ain lecturers to deliver lect ur es, which would
afford both amusement and instruction, and for
which small admission fee might be demanded.
There is enough cul ltivated intellect in the coun-
y, am sure, which might be counted upon for
so laud able purpose.
There are other things which show that the
n oney for this purpose can be spared, but will
lot advert to them. The subject is worthy the
attentive consideration of every man.
