THE COXFEDERATE DEAD.

The Richmond Times makes the following
singular appeal in behalf of the Confederate
dead. { is not without reason:
But if the United Statee. while collecting
the bones Of its own soldiers, should also
gather together and honor in some appro-
pirate way the dust Of our fallen heroes, how
grateful it would be TO our feelings. An act
like that would cover the Government with
more glory than did the victories of its vast
and countless hosts. Ii would bring tears to
the ewes and loyalty TO the hearts of the wild
ows and orphans Of the South, and il would
be felt and deeply appreciated by our whole
people The grandeur and the magnanimity
of such deed would cause the world to re-
sound with applause, and no nation would
ever better deserve praise and glory for
such an action. Here, then, is a way to let
the hearts Of North and South beat once
more in unison. Let this great Government
show that lis vengeance does not extend
beyond life and the grave; that il can feel
for aud honor its brave children after they
are dead, even though il considered them in
error while living; that after death it no
longer regarded them as enemies and 'reb-
els" but as Paladins and Bayards of noble
Yalor Peace has been made with the liv-
ing, why not with the dead And if the
bones Of Union soldiers are 10 be collected.
why not render the same sad office TO those
who fell by their hands? Shall the Govern
mcnt agents while they are collecting the
remains of their own men, cast away the
homes of ours, if 10y mistake they have
gathered them up2 The most callous and
yindictiye would not willingly do so.
The foregoing suggestion is in harmony
with the following remarks Of the Chicago
Timcs:
il is to be hoped that one of the lessons
the future will learn from the late war is
that this nation is possessed Of impregnable
unity. This is all that needs TO b. learned.
lp fighting the South, we fought not TO per
petuate hostility, but to allay il. We la
bored 10 secure more in places Of less one
ness. Our fighting will have been in vain if
all the hatred and recriminatioR and mutual
Misunderstanding of the war are perpet-
uated
Therefore, the sooner we adapt ourselves
10 a substantial unity of feeling, the sooner
shall we have secured the main object Of the
contest on the part of the North. To attain
this end, we must As speedily as possible
drop the name Of traitor" We must re-
cognize to the full the gallantry and purity
Of those who fought. The bad men on beth
sides must be consigned 10 oblivion, and the
good men embalned in The memory of the
people and preserved as the common pro
perry of the nation. The uncalled-ior and
disgraceful malignity of Radicals may delay,
but il cannot wholly prevent the coming of
a time in which the memories of Grant and
Lee, sherman and Johnston, Sheridan and
Stuart, will be regarded as the property of
ALL the people of this nation. We venture
the prediction that the time will come when,
If there be any ill-feeling in regard to Stone
wall Jackson, il will be one Of envy on the
part of the North that she did not give birth
10 this illustrious man.

One Of the most extensive manufacturing
establishments ever projected in the South

Carolina Railroad, nine miles from Augusta.
This enterprise is known as the Kalmia

a cotton factory, one paper mill for the man
ufacture of writing paper, and one for the
manufacture Of news and book paper. The
Charleston NcCS, alluding to this Company,
states that the machinery is all imported,
having been ordered by the President of the
Company, while in Europe last year, and
consists, in the cotton factory, of ten thOus-
and sclfacting mul-spindlss for filling, and
five hundred looms. The Company will

employment for several hundred hands, in
the different departments and though owned
and controlled chiefly by the capital of a
neighhoring city, it viii confer material
advantage upon the industrial classes Of our
city and vicinity.
