When the history Of the late war is writer
as it should be, and all its interesting fact.
are made known and digested, what, perhaps
more than any other subject, will attract tht
attention of thinkers will be the effect pro
duced by SO wide spread of ruin upon thu
subsequent morals and manners of the South
en people, What evidences they gave O
heroism in sacrificing wealth as well as Life
upon the altariof patriotism-in what manner
lithey endured the petty miseries of poverty
how many families disappeared to be known
in the first social walks of life no more how
many of the children Of those who were thus
ruined became vagabonds or prostitutes how
many showed that the energy and virtues Of
their ancestors still lived in their descendants,
and resolutely proved that they could acquire
wealth by their own efforts, Is well as adorn
the position that had been bequeathed them
by others would be rather curious statistics.
There are not many Of our people who can
remember the instances Of va1or which were
shown during the recent war, without a ting
ling OF the blood and an honest pride that
such men were Of the same lineage as them
selves; and yet what was, perhaps, more
worthy of admiration, occurred far from the
field of battle-among men too old and infi1m
to share the strife, or among the other sex, too
weak to WELD the sword, among those who
resigned themselves unmurmuringly to repul-
sive and unaecustomed labor, and who proved
by their personal example, that honor is de-
pendent upon ourselves and not on our
station.
In every part of the South our people have,
as class, accepted the loss of their property
by laboring at such callings as their altered
circumstances seemed to require. We have
more than once seen the large planters and
landowners Of another day guiding the pillow,
or laboring at callings which, at one time,
might have been regarded as almost mental.
We read Of the wife of Gen. Polk devotine
her talents to teaching, with no false shame !;

were needed, where woman leads the way) of
men who have forgotten past wealth and re-
signed themselves to a life of undistinguished
poverty, will readily suggest themselves to
every one.
Still there are many-we wish the number
we're less-who from lack of talent OF
mercy, show that the wealth that has passed

The two children of the Prince of Wales,
whilst being carried about lately BY
their nurses through the streets of the
ancient city of York, were recognized at
the railway station by several ladies, who
pressed around them and begged permission
to kiss the hands of the elder one. A penny
a-liner, who has, even at the tender age Of
these royal infants, hooked himself to their
train, speaks of the scene in the following in
genious terms
prince Victor, like the frank little fellow he is
las il he knew all about him), did not like his
hands being kissed so well as being shaken With
the most charming possible air. composed little of
c99ndesc,enslon, but more Of hearty enjoyment, he
offered his hand to each lady in turn until his little
arm must have fairly a6hed; and even when the
nurse interposed he would not let any 60 away
without the satisfaction the others had eni0yed
and went on handshakng until the last LADY, had
gained the honor of which she will not cease talk
ng as long as she lives 1t is to be hoped for
the sake OF her friends her husband and herchil-
fen nay, for her own sake, that this s'last LADY,

Can human sycophany go further than this
fawning and mumbling over the chubby fist
of a baby still ''muling and puking in its
nurses arms, even if it be the grandchild of
a queen? For mother to do these things is
touching and loyely--but here the caress, or
rather the worship, was paid to the rank, not
to the beauty of the child.
