bazaar, in Richmond, Va, in Febru-
ary next, for the purpose of raising
funds to enable them to carry out
their plans in care of the Confederate
dead. It is their wish that each of
the late Confederate States, with
Maryland, should be represented in
this bazaar, as the Association is in
terested equally in all the deceased
soldiers of the South, from whatever
State they may have come, who are
buried at Hollywood.
An agent or agents will be appoint
ed in each State, who will notify the
public of that State of their readiness
to receive contributions of money, or
of articles that may be disposed OF at
the bazaar
1t is hoped that in this undertaking,
which appeals so touchingly to the
ladies of the South, and those who
sympathize with them, there will be
manifested a becoming enthusiasm,
and that the bazaar will illustrate
how nobly these States can emulate
each other in love and good works on
this occasion Of so much interest to
all.
The following named ladies have
been appointed officers and IN execu-
tive committee.
All money and articles of value
from Virginia should be transmitted
to them; contributions from other
States should be reported to the State
agents for their directions.
An efficient committee of gentle
men will act in concert with the ladies
IN the careful management Of the
funds.

NiEssRs. EDITORS: It is surely r1i-
necessary to add one word to the
above circular It is we'll known
that on the sacred soil which these
women Of Virginia are endeavoring
to preserve as hallowcd ground, rests
the dust Of our brothers from every
State in the South. The graves Of
over l, 500 Carolinians call to us not
to neglect the last resting place Of
those who have toiied, fought and
died for us, and we cannot believe
that anything more than the an
nouncement that the ladies Of the
bazaar ask assistance from South Ca
rolina is needed to elicit q liberal re-
sponse from our people. All articles
sent from South Carolina will be ap-

Table" Contributions in money,
fancy articles or refreshments will be
received up to the .1st of February,
directed to the Agent of the Holly

VIM. Martin, Columbia, S. G.

Prussia, who might be assisted by
the Car, did that Potentate not fear
that his design on Constantinople
would excite the interference Of
England. One fact is assured, that,
if the war is inaugurated, the million
