| among the women. The Confederacy wouldn't
lave lasted year if it hadn't been for them.
One good rebel woman is worth dozen rebel
men. Go after the women then. They will make
their husbands and their lovers shout for Grant
and ColfaX until they are hoarse, if you will man
age to replace some of the diamond rings and
laces Frank B!ai" stole from them when he was
here. And don't hesitate to throw Your arms
around their necks now and them when their hus
bands are not around. and give them good -.
They all like it, and the Yankeer you are the bet
ter it takes. Our experience with female rebs is,
that with all their sins they have vast amount
of human nature, aud only want to have it appre-
clated 20 be the most loving creatures imaginable.
Scalawags and carpet-baggers don't fail, there
fore. as you canvass the State to look after the
women. You are all good looking and they know
it, but with native nodesty, like sweet New Eng
land glrls they like to be approached first. Don't
be afraid of their eyes-they glare like young
leOpards by day light. but under the moon no blue
death stricken fawns is half SO tender or half so
deep. Don't read Judge Pearson's letter to the i,
but give them Byron and Shelly in volumes, and
you will have them in your arms if not in your

The above is an extract from an article
which appeared in the Standard of Satur-
day last. Of all the atrocious and outra-
geous pieces that ever appeared in that
foul-mouthed, vile and filthy sheet it is by
far the most complete specimen of what a
depraved heart and shameless hand can
conceive and transmit to paper. It is a
gross and most villianous reflection upon
the purity and virtue, not only Of the ladies
of this community, of this State, but of the
whole Southern section generally. The
man whose whole soul has become totally
corrupted and devoid of every vestige of
principle, decency or honor, whose nature
has utterly lost every attribute that brings
man in p~oximity to his Creator, whose
wicked thoughts and bad deeds ever have
made the devils in hell tremble, would
hesitate long before he would perpetrate
such an hellish and damnable crime as is
the SANDER which appeared in the columns
of the North Carolina Standard on the 10Th
inst.

sung, painted, thought or dreamed Of.

and monster of all that's damnable and
