Gen. Floy iV whs-a than who tdwirys had the most prolound i’cspect- lor the religion of the'Bible, and 'lie'highest reverence for <iio»t and saernf things. I am iafdreicd (bat tor.' years lie has been a man of prayer, and I am glad to state that lie did not die with out the consolations ol that religion he so much respected. Laboring With the hospi tals in a didhrent Btaic, I wss summoned by bdograph to attend at his beilside, and reeich- . ed.him four iia>s before his death. 1 found 1dm calm, and peaceful.;, his mind as clear and his ju dgment its sound as ever in his lite. lie took me- by the hand, telling me 1(0 could not survive more than a Jew days, lie spoke of his religious 'feelings and pros- jieets in the most beautUul and satisfactory •mannoiv l wish I could recall his language, bat can do Iso paly very imperfectly, lie salt he was not afraid-to die, that he had 'the str.cn.gcst assurance, of his acceptance With Ids Maker.• Ue felt that he was a sin ner, aud that his.only hope was in the infin ite mercy of God through the Lor v l Jesus Christ. As ho spoke of the goodness ol God, his heart seemed to gloW with grati tude’ end love, and as I repeated to him the promises of the Bible suited to his case, Lis eye kindled with interest, and the large tear drops llowed copiously over the manly lace ol the battle scarred warrior. ilo said that in public liic he had many enemies; that ho;had been wronged, deeply wgouged, yet. he fully and freely forgave it all; that before that God iu whose presence he expected very soon to stand, ho could say that ho had no malice nor aught iu liis heart against any man. lie had long been impressed with the importance of connect ing himself'with the church, but had been hindered from doing so by various causes, but now ho wished to be received into the communion, and to receive the holy sacra ment, and I kaw no gorF reasons why 1 wishes should not, be granted; accord mg iy lie was received into the church, and the sa cramcnl administered. These solemn auu impressive services being performed, much to the grat.UIcatioh of himself and friends, tic now felt that his work was done. After this he conversed but little, being very weak, and much of the time suffering severe pain, yet he retained full possession of his faculties iO the last, and the same calm, peaceful state of mind. Much of the time he ' engagee in prayer, and often seemed anxious that his departure should he has tened. Thus has passed away one of the noblest of his kind! We mourn Ids loss; his coun try needed his services; his friends will feel —deeply leel their bereavement. But they sorrow not as' those who have no hope.— They believe that in the all wise and gra cious -providence of God he is taken away from the Ovii to come, and housed in the paradise above. And they Jive in the glo rious anticipation ot ir re"union at God’s right hand on high. - THE PROVISION QUESTION Editors :, Accounts from ail por tions of the Confederacy bring.the most grat ifying intelligence of the provision crop of this year, fcmali grain has already been se cured, and the corn crop may be considered practically.made. Great attention has every where been paid to the rearing of hogs, and altogether, iu point of subsistence, the South may be safely stated to have in prospect -r-H- —yrrrp, "* --r--r—f ti-t, i mof c abundant supplies than ever in its h>3- fofjutrc^ iy iM to betieu ou the lory before. There is no occasion oven now for famine prices, and only the cautious tar diness of piani ers, t\ ho arc waiting for prices to become established, and the heartless boarding ot ppceulatofs to cause them U> rise, have prevented the markets from being lloodcd with brerdstiitfs/as they’uiust inevi- rably be before long. I; is difficult; to estimate the wheat crop of Virginia this year. According Ip ike census report, of 1650, (which, in tho.Boutb,’Was ne ver regarded us complete) Virgin!,rproduced over 11,000,000 bushpls ot wheat. At that time fertilizers were used to a far lees ex'teut than during the next decade, cor did plan ters .'grow wheat for market .where the'cost of Iran spoliation . exceeded -10'cehtmper bushel. . Frorn' lSoi to T»0 the increase of Die wheat c rop, (especially in r. large portion of the State not yet disturbed by the Yankees.) ow ing to the more extensive use of fertilizers, and increased facilities tor transportation, was immense, and I think the estimate of the crop of 16G0, at,13,000,000 bushels, not-ex travagant. By the* Use of a map, tracing counties overrun by the enemy, together with tkc'ccjjsus report of 1850,: an approxi- nutf iu might be arrived at of the: present crop. Many have planted wheat who never before, to supply" their, own use, and many more have lurgeiy increased the number of .-acres usually settled,' The waul ot fertil izers,; together with the loss from invasion, C'i.n’ Ecurc.dy liave diminished the crop oi 1800 more than nvo-fd'ths, yet all will agree putting it at one-half, which will place tho crop tiiis year at 0,500,000 bushels. It will also be conceded that the amount ot wheat and Hour, of all the. old crop on hand, hoard ed by speculators', < r not brought forward because of tho difficulties in transportation, is fully espial to one-eighth of this amount, amount, which is the usual .allowance lor seed, Ac. This would, then allow V,500,000 bushels of wheat for home consumption and market, equivalent to One and two-thirds millions of barrels of Jiour, The armies in tho State of Virginia can scarcely require 1,- 000 barrels per day, which would bo average bread rations for 190,000 men. About one third of a million barrels a year would per haps be a sale estimate. Tile government, by this calculation, will need, if the entire broad rations for -men is 11 olir,.one-liltli of the wheat crop of the'State, or double its tithe. The Government tithe may bo.esti- mated at IGO.CGG barrels of floor, and if one- hilt of the bread rations be of corn meal the year round, this amount of flour, if there is not-too great wastage, will supply the gov ernment’ demand, and place it, when the tithes are all brought in, entirely out of the market.’ • . But can the pop illation-of Virginia, okclu- sivc of the army, require four or five and a halt times the amount which tho Govern ment wants, (which would bo average army rations, if no other breadstuff was used, for 709,000 to 809,000 inhabitants for a year,) with a crop of 40,000,000 bushels of corn in prospect, besides other grain, vegetables, Ac. V I j udge that that amount of flour has never been consumed in the State, and is not needed now. There is no foreign market, no exporting abroad, no demand from sister States. The. old North State, the Palmetto Suite, the Empire Slate of the South, the land ol flowers, and ntso Alabama, all solid tidings of their superabundant crops lor their citizens and the armies in each. Some of them are furnishing supplies now to Virgin ia, and lowering prices here, bo it to the shame of her producers, at a handsome profit to the enterprising citizens engaged in it, after* paying first cost, transportation and a largo advance to the speculators there.— These States can supply the deficiency, il if any, in Mississippi, and if Tennessee and . Kentucky -need bread, from the ravages of the enemy, they have to spare for them too. Texas alone, suffering nothing from invasion, it is stated, can furnish flour for the entire trans-Mississippi Department, though Ar kansas and Missouri are overflowing with breadslufls. It is only iu Virginia, abundant really us her supplies are, that We hear ot threatening lamine and famine prices. Why is it so? SIGMA. This is the hardest case that has ever come under cur observation. Tho Japanese, since the expulsion of the Jesuits, two hundred and lift}' years ago, have obstinately refused, as they certainly had a right to refuse, all in tercourse with Christendom, except a very limited ono with the Dutch. No European nation—not even England and Russia, their nearest and moat ambitions nieghbeira—ever thought of interfering with them. To the Yankees alone are we to ascribe the intrusion upon them which has been witnessed of late years. On the heads'of that internal race will fall all the blood and crime that is about to starl’c the world. They: forced themselves on the. Japanese, just as’they' have been in the habit of forcing themselves upon society in Europe. The Japanese did not seek t heir company, and did not want it. We.'wish to God it were possible for them to sink every Yankee ship and slaughter every YT.nkte- soldier that may be sent against them. Bacon.—It was thought some time since, when the Government agents were trying to purchase bacon with Confederate notes at 80 cents per pound, that bacon had become ex tinct in this market. The general belief was, that there was none in tho country.— But when the Government received a large lot of sugar, asomenced exchanging that ar ticle for bacon., many persons were forced to change their opinion. Over ten thousand pounds of bacon were-taken during a single week. ... - Kino BV-yton.—The London corrcspon- dent 'T the New York Times says: f’ne harvest continues good, but the c«-t- t aa prospect is bad. It could scarcely he worse*. Colton will not come from any- where, no matter how much it is wanted.—. in ia and Egypt do not increase this pio- duct even at the highest prices. They will low prices. What England Spirit of Invaded Districts.—Gentle men who have recently returned from dis tricts of this State invaded, and for a long time occupied by the enemy, give most encouraging accounts-of thG spirit of. the people. In the Northern Neck, the Penin sula and the Eastern Shore, the people, are, it possible, more loyal to the cause than -at the beginning of the war. They have suf fered and still suffer grievously, but' their hope is as liigb, tlieir courage as defiant and their fortitude as unbroken to day as it was two years ago. Despoiled of their servants and cattle, and compelled to perform menial labor not only for their own support but for tho Yankees who are constantly billeted upon them, subjected to every species of ini suit and far from the strong arm of their natural defenders, they still look forward to the. day of independence and at righteous retribution. The more they are; called upon to endure, the stouter become their hearts. Robbed and oppressed; but not humiliated, hey maintain a devotion to their country ted its cause-which extorts the admiration and respect even of the - ruffians who sur- oaund them'. It is no uncommon thing for Yankee vi- pettes to ride up to a mansion and order the lady of the house or her daughter to cook ft meal for them, and if the order is not com plied with, oaths, insults, and threats of per sonal violence follow, until' hunian nature can bear no more, and tho brutes arc obeyed. If their blasphemous maledictions some times bring tears from the ladies, their weep ing excites a ribald laughter more intolerable than curses. Every day t>rings forth seme fresh wrong, some new and atrocious insult to test the fortitude of these indomitable Virginians. But while life lasts their noble-' ness of soul remains. Death may conquer them; Y’ankees never. They see too much of the low flung murderous villains eyer to hope that their presence even as neighbors much less^m asters, will be as bearable or as honorable as the grave. The example of our oppressed fellow-cki- zens should excite not only sympathy, but emulation. There rue districts -which the foot of the invader has never tied, and where the war has scarcely been felt, and yet the property-holders of ;these districts arc, if reports be true, of all others the most timid, fearful, doubtful. God forbid that invasion should extend one inch further; but it would not bo the worst of evils if it sufficed to cure all the weak-hearted in the country. Those who have been exempt from the hor rors ol war may rest assured that the alter- nat e apathy and timidity which they now experience will sooner or later give place to a manlier spirit unless they bestir themselves in every possible way to ensure the success of the. cause. Their time to. endure the horrors ol' invasion will surely come,' and only when they are beggared will they know how much they might have saved if they had diplayed the hardy virtues ol poverty in their days of prosperity.

It lias never yet been found whoa ;litis sought; and never will be, while the world stands; and Uie sooner this truth is learned the better for every one. If you doubt the proposition, glance around among your friends and acquaintances, at.d select those who appear to nave the most enjoy ment in life. Are they the idlers, and pleas ure-seekers, or the earnest workers? We know what your answer will be. Of all the miserable human beings it has been our fortune, or misfortune, to know, they were the most wretched who had re tired from useful, employments, in order to enjoy themselves. Why the slave at his enforced labor, or the hungry toiler for bread, was supremely happy in comparison. Earnestly would we press upon young minds the truth we have stated. It lies at the foundation of all well-doing and well being.' It gives tranquility and pleasure to the youth just step ping across the threshold of rational life, as well as to the man whose years arc beginning to rest upon his stooping shoulders. Be ever engaged in useful world if you would be happy. This is a great sc ad. - Tirs United States and Japan.—War has broken out between Yankee Doodle, and Japan.* We were prepared for it, by a re view "which we read a tew weeks ago, of a narrative of his sojourn at Jeddo, written by the English Ambassador there, who said that the authorities had ordered all lorc-ign- ers to qu't the island, and had murdered many of them. The same writer says that the. potentate who Signed the treaty with Commodore.Perry was put to death, and that the aristocracy, who much resemble the barons of the leudai system in t ye middle ages of Europe, both with respect to the independence of tlieir power and their rela- tiona to the crown, had all determined that none of the treaties made _ with the powers of Christendom should be carried into effect. Of course France; England, and Russia, as welt as Yankee Doodle, wili be down upon fine unfortunate Asiatics,' and we shall see a repeliiion of the crimes which made India 1 an Acccldama and deluded China with blood.
