BAYARD TAYLOR finds nothing loYable in the
Missouri river. He says Of it, in late letter to
the New York Tribune
Even when one reaches the Missouri, there is
little in that ugiest Of all rivers to divert ones
attention. A single picture Of the swift tide Of
liquid yellow mud with it's dull green wall Of cot
tonwood trees beyond, is equivalent to panorama
Of the whole stream. For the seventy or eighty
miles during which we skirted it, the turbid sur
face was unrelieved by sail, unbroken by the
paddles Of single steamer. Deserted, monoto-
nous, hideous, treacherous with it's forever-shift-
ing sands and snags, it almost seems to repel set
tement, even as it repels poetry and art.

Our Confederate Dead on the Battlefield
near AverysborouGh, N. q.

MesSrs. Editors More than q month ago re-
ceived a letter from Mrs. E. S. SMITH, tho
patriotic lady residing at the ever-memorabe
battle-ground near Averysborough, N. O., where,
on the 10th Of March, 1865, two regiments of
South Carolina regulars, and LUCAS battalion OF
South Carolina Volunteers, displayed courage
and heroism not surpassed during the war. AS
these noble troops were mainly from Charleston,
and as Charlestonans cannot fail to feel an in
terest in anything that may rebound to the glory
and perpetuity Of tho memory of her gallant sons
who fell there, desire to call their attention. and
especially that Of her fair daughters to the sug-
gestion and proposition of this amiable lady.
After writing me "the Federals are here now (the
2Sth May, 1867 removing their dead to one spot"
she continues thus sit pains my heart to think
our beloved soldiers must remain here and there
over the battlefield ss they fell. The South can
not afford yet to have them removed to n ceme-
terry, but L trust the day will soon como when
something can bo done in that way Tho Fede-
rails havo bought peco of ground here, and arc
having it all enclosed for the graves of their dead
We will give piece of ground, il tho bodies of
our own could bo removed and put there Most
of the dead around us, of our army, are South
Carolinians one or two Georgians. 1 think some
thing might bo done in the way Of getting up a
fund, for the purpose of having the bodies re-
moved. 1t is unpleasant work, and requires high
wages, but trust We can have it done. Do you
not think the friends of the deceased in your
State, who have not been able to remove their
dc I'D, would like to know they were put in safe
place, where they could be cared for2 Iwoud
take great pleasure in having all done in my
power. Besides giving the land, will do what
I can towards having the ground improved and
enclosed. hope. for the sake of our loved and
lost we can do something"
Now Messrs. Editors will not the patriotic
ladies of Charleston respond, as becomes them,
to the suggestion and proposition of this noble
matron Of the old North State2 Let some one
but make the move! Readily will an association be
formed; the necessary funds raised; and tho last
sad Office of affection for our departed dead bo
most faithfully executed under the auspices of
Mrs. SMITH, aided, as she will be, by her SYM
pathizing and worthy husband and other friends
can give but little information, in addition to
the newspaper accounts, Of tho number slain, and
probable reinterments which the work will re-
quire. Some havo been rcmoved-vcry fow,
suppose; but my son, who was killed there, now
rests in his own dearly iovod natiVo coil. l. hero
fore, have but the same common interest with all
those who fell with him on that sanguinary day.
Yet am ready to cooperate, to tho extent of my
ability, in this last sad duty 'to our loved and
lost"
