, The following we clip from the
Southern Home.a paper that has been
recently stated ir Charlotte, by that
gallant ex.Copfedc,ate General, D. II
Hill:
BALTIMORE This noble city did
more for the suffering South in the
time of her .sorest distress than all
the cities aud States of the Union
combined. Greeley and Reecher
made great beating Of bro IS drums in
New York and collected little from
Southerners residing there. But tbe
most wretched alley III Baltimore gave
more than rich New York with ali it's
flourish of trumpots. The South has
not been altogether ungrateful with
her returning prosperity, and Balti-
more has greatly increased in wealth,
numbers and commercial enterprise.
She IL now large importing city,
and Southern merchants can do lust
as well there as in the great cities Of
the North. But unfortunately, too
many are forgetful Of tho dobt Of
gratitude due by US, and turn their
back upon their friends and Increase
