ir daughters of the Old Dominion,

mplexion is as fair as the morning,
forms of nymph-like grace, and
manners fascinating and refined,
perhaps, I have said too much ; 1
the (ieorgia ladies will not be

J a visit from one of Georgia’s fairest

‘ GENERAL NEWS.
The London Times it bitterly sarcastic
on the Bull Run battle. Says the South
ern nut is very hard to cmck. and fears the
question ot the blockade will involve Eng
land in difficult complications.
Lord Palme'Slon says the entrance of du
ty paying vessel into any blockaded port
wipes out the blockade.
A belligerent power may seal all ports,
but when it lets any vessel in the right to
blockade is gone.
The London Herald says: “On the re
ceipt ol the news Napoleon resolved to re
cognize the Confederacy.

stated that the attack was commenced
on Wednesday, and renewed yester
day with increased vigor. A regiment,
thirteen hundred strong, left Richmond
on yesterday, at 10 A. M-, for the scene
of action, and we expect to hear of a
glorious victory on our side. At the

•‘THE DEVOTED BAND,”
T HE shortest path to peace is that which
carries havoc and desolation to our in
vaders. It is believed that there are fivjor
ten thousand men in the South ready and
willing to share the fate of Curtins, and
devote themselves to the salvation of their
country. It is proposed that all who are
willing to make this sacrifice, shall arm
themselves with a sword, two five-shooters
and a carbine each, and meet, on horse
back, at some place to be designated, con
venient for the great work in hand. Fire
and sword must be carried to the houses of
those who ar6 visiting those blessings upon
their neighbors. Philadelphia, and even
New York, is not beyond the reach of
long and brave arm. Tho moral people of
these cities cannot belter be taught the vir
tues of invasion than in tho blazing light of
their own dwellings.
None need apply for admission to “THE
DEVOTED BAND,” but those who are
prepared to take their life in their hand,
and who would indulge uot the least expec
tation of ever returning. They dedicate
