CORY OLANUs OPINION OF WOMAN.

CORY OLANus OPINION OF WOMAN
Women want something to do.
| She don't seek husband for selfish mo
tives. Not at all
She knows that man is a helpless an
imal, an,hshe wants to take care of him
And bless her, She does take better
care of us thon we often do of ourselves
She is our first, last and best solacc.
Mrs. OLanus is now making me half ;
dozen shirts, which suggested the rcticc
ton that without woman, what shiftlcS
creatures we should be-
What should we do without her?
Woman wants employment
Taking care of US is her natural yoca
ton
When she hasn't family to look after
she wants to look after the affairs of the
nation, to vote and run for Congress.
She must have excitement, and if she
hasn't house cleaning she wants to set the
country to rights.
| believe III giving our white sister a
chance as we'll rs our black brother.
We might as Well take all our relations
into political partnership while we are
about it, and make it family affair.
Mr.. Stanton and agreed on this.
Woman Notwithstanding her weakness
for Waterfalls is to be trusted
But I notice that storckeeperS who trust
her generally send their bills in to her
husband.
This ought to be an insult to the sex,
and when women vote hope they will
have spirit enough to resent and make 1t
a mi.demcanor punishable with the confs
cation of the debt

WASHINGTON NEWS.

The Washington correspondent Of the New York
Herald of Saturday says:
General Sickles had protractcd interview with
General Grant at the War Department. to-day. No
definite conclusion was reached in his case and he
s still here awaiting orders. He has made q fresh
demand for court Of inquiry to examine into his
administration OF afairs in the Second Military
District If it j. not granted he will probably re-
sign his commission in the army for the purpose
Of making ropy to the charge made against him
by President Johnson in his proclamation. While
lie remains in the army he cannot he saws, vindi-
cate himself in any other way than by a court of
inquiry. Failing. to obtain that, he proposes to
resign and go before the people.
Gen. Sickles received an official letter from Gov.
Orr, of South Carolina, this evening in which the
latter states that while he was at first opposed to
some of Gen. Sickles orders while in command OF
the Third Military District he is now satisfied that
his administration was, on the whole marked BY
great wisdom, moderation and forbearance. This,
he says, is the sentiment Of the element in South
Carolina which he (Orr) represents. He further
states that he believes the people of South Caro-
lima are largely indebted to Gen. Sckles' adminis-
tration for much Of the prosperity and good order
prevailing there. The Governor closes his letter,
which is quite lengthy, with expressions of regret
at the removal Of Siokles.
Intelligence has been received here to the effect
that the wealthier classes OF the people of North
and South Carolina hSge petitioned General Candy,
now in command there, to continue in force Gene
raj Sickles' Order No. TO- They represent that if
it is rescfhded the effect will bo to beggar them,
because il thor land s put up at public sale under
the present depressed condition Of affairs there 1t
will not bring one-half its real value. The petition
has been widely circulated through the two States,
and is said to be numerously signed by prominent
men. as we'll among the negroes IS the white land
owners. Gene raj Canhy is not disposed it is said
to undo any OF the acts OF his predecessor.

him. At one time, large number of prisoners
escaped from the stockade, and thronged the plan
ation but he neither reported nor arrested one oil
| them. Gee and his confederates did encounter
Sr. Candy, but they did it in that sly and stealthy
| manner i'll which cat approaches its prey before
| springing upon it. Gee did stand by, and with q
| vengeance, for he kept the poor wounded man
from escaping, and according TO his own confess
sion, kept him at bay until his pursuers came up
and shot his brains out.
1t is also said General Scott had sufficiently in
vestigated the case to know that the act was one
OF war, for which the freedman could in no way be
responsible
If General Scott possesses the impartial, intelli-
gent and discriminating Judgment which the re-
sponsible position he holds should command,
can scarcely believe he ever came to a conclusion
so ridiculous. The war had ended, and everybody.
white and black, knew it. The officers and SOL
diers Of the Federal and Confederate armies were
passing through this District at the time without
hindrance or molestation from any source what
ever.
In the investigation made by General Scott, at
Marion, but cne witness, in addition to those ex-
amined before the Court was allowed. as have
been informed. He MAS in the court house while
the trial was progressing, He was not introduced
as q witness for JEFF, nor was any such defence as
his (Jeffs) plotting Union soldiers made. The
said person stands discredited before our Courts
for the last fifteen years, and no respectable man
in this community will believe him on his oath
This is plain and honest account of the whole
affair." and challenge an investigation from any
source whatever, and deny that anv statement
herein made can be successfully controverted.

TAX ExECUTIoNs.-We see in the Monntaineer q
formidable list Of le7ias made by the Sheriff OF
Greenville Dstrist to satisfy tax executions in his
office. Forty-four tracts Of land, segregatng very
nearly ten Thousand acres, are advertised for sale
on the first Monday in October In our own dis
trict, We learn chat four hundred and fifty tax ex-
ecutions against white persons are in the Sherf's
office for collection which are ordered to be col
lected forthwith. Clarendon Press.
MARLBOROUGH LANDS FOR SALE During the
fall and winter there will be large quantity OF
land offered for sale in this District uro very rea-
sonsble TERMS. The Commissioner in Equity
will sell tho lands Of number OF estates
for partition, on long credits, Oh the sae-days of
October and November next. We learn that many
of these estates have been divided into small
FARMS SO that any worthy person can easily pro-
cure home by buying it, which is the only true
way home can ever be owned. Our large land
owners too, are desirous OF disposing of portion
Of their lands, being convinced from this yoar's
experience that plantin6~cotton largely with hired
freed labor is pretty well played out.
In this District We believe the best cotton lands
in the State, on an ayerage,-farnls small or large
can be purchased at very reasonable rates, ac-
cording to quality and location for cash or. on
credit Lands which ranged before the var from
five to thirty dollars por acre, lave been reduced
in price to about one half, and in many cases to
about nethird their original value, the result of
the last few years war and ruin. Now ia the
time for those having capital to invest, ere
these lands rise again in value. ,

MARRIAGE OF HNDoo GIRL TO AN IDoL.-The
following curious account of the marriage of q
Hindoo girl to an idol is given by the Dude
Gazette:
!"Some time ago paper Of the northwestern
provinces announced the arrival Of III old Deccan
Brahmin with his family in the town of Muthra,
where Rungacharee, the high priest Of the Rama
noogee sect, greatly patronizsd him. The old
Brahmin has two daughters, ono grown-up girl,
and the other only nine years old. While residing
at Muthra the younger girl gave out that Karishna-
jee lone OF the incarnations Of Yshnu, the Hindoo
god) appeared to her in dream, and proposed q
nuptia alliance with her. Next day the girl was,
with great pomp, married to an idol worshipped in
Hindoo temple. The ignorant and superstitious
peopleTejoiced at this absurd marriage and began
to fenerate the girl as an inspired being. Both
the girls have learned by heart eighteen thousand
couplets OF the 'Bhagwut,' work in the Sanscrit
language. They have now arrived in this city and
put up ut house in the vicinity OF the Cole
Durwlza. Every morning HindoOs Of all ages
and sexes congregate there to hear the melodious
recitations Of the two girls. Both the girls con-
slider themselves as dedicated to the service Of the
God Krishna and after their daily recitations are
concluded they make no hesitation in accepting
such presents Of money and sweetTeats as their
hearers may choose to give them. We have little
doubt that they have already reaped rich harvest
from their delIded yotaries."

IMMIGRATION FROM rHE NoRIH.--The Staunton
Vindicator expresses what We believe to be the
general feeling when it says there is nothing more
cheering than the notices Of the division and sale
of lands in every portion of Virginia, to Northern
men of capital and enterprise, and of good repu-
tation al home, who propose to come and live
among us. In the past few months, it continues,
chronicle the sale Of lands, &c., to some worthy
Northern gentleman. We may therefore conclude
that prejudice and passion have chad their day" d"
in circulating base ruraors Of bad treatment to
Northern immigrants; and that this tide of immi-
grafton, so long restrained By idle stories and
otherwise, has turned in this direction. We trust
that it has, and would desire to impress upon the
people of that section to Investigate the advan-
tages Virginia offers, far outreaching those Of
newer States, aud assure them that worthy immi-
grants will meet with kind reception at the
hands of all Virginians We want such men
among us to help us by their energy and capital
to develop the resources of our State, and will
welcome and treat them as neighbors and friends.
