ACCOMMODATING Young LADY.
The Ripley (Miss.) Advertiser has
the follWing:
"a gentleman in this vicinity
courted a young lady and asked
her pa. Everything seemed in a
prosperous condition; but a y0un-
ger sister of the betrOthed suggest
ed to her would-be brother-in-law
that her sisters health was not
very good, and hadn't he better
take her instead of the older one,
she being more able to fill the re-
quirements of the position. The
suggestion seemed to be q good
one, and the change was made;
but pa was not pleased, and for.
bid it. But the older sister help
ed her former lover to steal the
younger one, and they were mar.
ried last Sabbath"

a9- Commenting on the act of
Congress, prescribing that reor-
ganization in the Southern States
shall take place on the basis Of
"equal suffrage" the Cincinnata
Gazette, a Radical paper, depre-
Gates the fact that it will increase
their representation while nothing
will be added to Northern repre-
sentation-the States of that sec
ton having refused to adopt ne
gro suffrage though they have
forced it upon the South. And the
Gasette bitterly says: 'It will be
queer if we shall have the physic
which, in the name of justice we
have prescribed for the rebel
States, returned to our own bow
els through our unfaithfulness to
our professions"

RAPHAEL SEMMEs ON THE
YANKEE RACE.-Admiral Semmes,
remarks the Mobile Tribune,)
editor of Memphis Bulletin, can
not be accused of greatly loving
the Yankee race, but he seems to
find something to admire in their
plucky enterprise. He says they
have gone through the business
of building up and smashing up
a government with hop, skip
and jump, and remarks: ''The
Individual energy, industry and
enterprise of this remarkable race
is equally astonishing. They con-
StruCt the longest railroads, dig
the deepest canals, and build the
finest ships of any people in the
world. When we were afloat in
the Alabama, endeavoring to
prevent these iconOclasts from
pulling down the idol of govern
ment which they had so recently
set up, if we were in doubt as to
the nationality of any ship we
were pursuing, we had only to
take a good look at her, at what
ever distance she might be,
through our telescope, to deter
mine at once whether she was
Yankee or not. If she excelled
the ships Of all other nations in
the symmetry Of her hull, the
length, the grace, and the taper
of her sparS; if her canvas was
whittier, her sails larger, more
beautifully, and "sheeted home,n
and hOisted in q more Sea-manlike
manner; if in short, like a beauti-
full woman, she ravished the be-
holder as well by the swelling and
graceful outlines of her figure, as
by the Witchery Of her drapery,
we were always sure she was
Yankee. What is it that the
Yankee cannot do? And whether
he can do it or not, what is it
that he will not attempt? He
has recently invaded the Holy
Land, intent upon uprOOting the
Turk and getting possession of
the holy sepulcher. The sultan
had better look out for himself.
If he permits the cockatrice's egg
to hatch he is gone. The Yankee
will steal his very yataghan and
turban, and swear that they are
his own" .a.

the following complimentary and

General Sheridan passed
through our city several days ago.
We did not mention the fact at

fresh wind to pass through our

parture of man who would strike
a corpse, and the announcement of
the fact. As the late lamented'

- The Holly Springs (Miss.)
Reporter knows several girls in
Marshall county, who were raised
in the lap of luxury, with fine
carriages to ride in and money by
thousands to spend, before the
war, who can now chop wood,
drive a two-horse wagon, go to
market, and do all the housewerk.
They can go in the kitchen, too,
and prepare dinner equal to q,
French cook. And then call ON
them in the parlor, they will treat
you to such music as would make
the houri listen with wonder and
admiration. These girls have
cheerfully conformed to the change
in their pecuniary circumstances.
The Reporter thinks they are
worthy of being the wives of the
greatest and best in the land.

General Beauregard on the
Situation.

Ill my hItIllO1C Ol'IIIlOlI3 VIC
have but one of two things to do
resist or submit =; the first is mad
missable, in our painfully exhaust
ed condition. -Four years of a
desperate war have taught us that
the argument of the sword" can
no longer be resOrted to by us to
redress our grievances. We must
therefore, submit ; but with that
calm dignity becoming our man.
hood and our lost independence.
"Having been overp0wered in
the late struggle, we can sub
nit to the harsh and ungGnerOus
conditions of our conquerors with
out diShOnOr, and we must adopt
the least of two evils; a futile re-
sistance would only cause our
riyets to be driven closer; we must
thenacquiesce or leave the country.
But we love too dearly the land Of
our birth to abandon it in it's hour
of seyerest trial. We should avoid,
also, bringing it, by internal dis
sentions, to the condition Of poor
Mexico, and the unfortunate South
American Republics.
"With regard to the suffrage
Of the freedmen, however objec-
tionable it may be at present, it is
an element Of strength for the fu-
trTe. If properly handled and di-
rected, we shall defeat our adver-
Saries with their own weapon.
"The negro is Southern born /;
with a little education and some
property qualifications, he can be
made to take sufficient interest in
the affairs and prosperity of the
South to insure an intelligent vote
on his part. ...
"In our future political contests
with the North, on protective
tariffs, internal improvements, ETC.,
the freedmen of the South will
side with the whites of the South
and Of the West, and they will
thus contribute to give us back
the influence we formerly had in
| the councils of the nation.
"Ou people should understand
that the Radicals can remain il
power only so long as the public
excitement is kept up; as with the
tuTbid waters of the Mississippi
river, the sedimentary particles
are kept up at the surface only sc
long as the waters are in motion
the instant the currant is checked
those particles fall to the bottom
Thus will it be with the Radicals
when peace and quiet are restored
to the country; the Conservative
| will then take the reins in thei
own hands, and the constitutions
laws of the land will once NOR
Iprevail."

- Mr.. Thad. Stevens never
let's an opportunity pass for saying
some sharp things against the
Southerners, whose army when it
invaded Pennsylvania, burned his
iron furnaces. Yesterday, in the
debate on sending relief to the
destitute at the South, when Mr..
Miller, Of Pennsylvania, recon-
mended sending some garden
seeds, Mr.. Stevens sneeringly re-
marked: 81 think my colleague
had better add a small appropria-
ton to send down gardeners to
do the work for them."-[ Wash.

need none Of your charity.
