January Ist 1854
A Arw -iLsuded Aristocracy” at the
South.
A soldier correspondent of the New York
Times, writing from Pcrfjßeyal, South Carolina
alludes to the sale ot confiscated lands in that
department as follows i “I wish you would pro
test against the land sale?, as conducted in this
depariment. Wo are fighting to put down one
land aristocracy, and we ought not at the same
time to bulid up another. 1 icar the colored
men would not be much benefit ed by the change.
There , chance lor competition in sales, as
there is no chance for any one bnt Government
officials and military officers, aud a few Northern
sharpers, to become acquainted with the lauds
or to alteuti the sale. Consequently, a few of
tho best plantations are gold for a song, and the
others are bid iu by the Government.”
Capt. Frank Hurley Acquitted.
ft wil be remembered (says ihe Montgomery
Advertiser) that Captain Frank Gurley of North
Alabama was captured Nbe latter part of last
year at his residence in Jackson county and
cairied to Nashville. A court martial was con*
vetted, aud he whs put upon trial for tho killing
of the Yankee U.noral McCook, in 1862. It was
confidenily predicted iu the Northern and Wes
tern papers that he would be found guilty Os
tnurdoi and executed. Nows was received a
short time since of the conclusion ot the trial, but
the verdict had not been made public, and he
was remanded to the Peuileutiary. Some of his
frieus in Huntsville anxious to know the verdict
%
in the case, telegraphed to Nashville and ob
tained information of his acquittal. So that the
daring and gallant Captain still lives, and may
yet rnako Yankees t-u > tho invasion of Alabama
as bo did with his partisan command up to his
cap >urc.
It. was rumored in lha city last night that Wil
liam G. Brownlow died in Ku..xviile rocomly, ol
Bronchitis. “Old Grimes is dead—th.it good oid
man.” But a few days since he gave -utterance
to tint blasph.mous threat of punishing “ihe
reb le with Greek-tire and their leaders with holt
fire.” Doubrless he has gone i.r quest of the
“raw material” for that last mentioned perform
ance.
Nashville has becorn i so unhealthy from an ae«
cumulation of filth, that tho commanding officer
has ordered the streets to be swept. If they
sweep alt tho liith out of the city, t lhe Nashvtlht
Union will have to procure anew editor.
If the Tennessee had run waisky instead
water, we might still be in possession of Mis p
siouary Htdgr*. As Grant was never known to
‘pass a drink,” it is reasonable to suppose he
‘wouldn't leave a whole uver of ‘the fl-tid,”

A Lady's offering to the Confederacy.
In the House of Representatives, a few days
since, Mr. Miles, of South Carolina, pretented
the following from a lady of Charleston, now
temporarily residing in Georgia. Its patriotic
sentiments suggest their own comments:
"Macon, Ga., Feb. 3 1864.

the request that you wiltband it to Mr. Meta

to the Government to fce coined and used as a
basis for our currency, and by that means to
render it saier than couM be done oy any laws

of silver will be of more service to our country
than to m-, I send it, trusting that so maDy of
my countrymen will follow the example that our

Brutal Murder of \la;jr Burroughs.
—By the recent arrival of a lady front the
vicinity of Norfolk, of ihe highest respecta
bility, we learn that Maj Edgar Burroughs*
whose death at Portsmouth has already
been announced, was brutally murdered by
a negrp soldier, attached to the Yanke army
It will be recollected that he wa9 confuted
in the hospital at Portsmouth with small
pox, and the Yankee account represented
that he was shot while endeavoring to make
his escape.—We now hear that Major
Burroughs was not endeavoring to escape,
but was simply turning over in his led,
when he was brutally shot through the
back by the dastardly Ethiopian who has
been clad in Yankee uniform and armed
with a musket, to watch the movements of
this gallant man who was just recovering
from the loathsome disease which had
seized upon his delicate frame. This
reaches us through a third parly, but it
is every way reliable, and was related to
the father of Major Burroughs by the dying
son, who survived the fatal shot just long
enough to enabl: his aged parent to react)
him, and receive the declaration from his
dying lip* Will not our soldiers remem
ber this great outrage—the greatest in the
black catalogue ot enormities committed by
the inhuman foe since this bloody and un
holv wsrhas been inagurated? The blood
of Major Burroughs cries aloud for ven%
geanee, and our gallant soldiers must
see to the cry is heeded —[Peters
burg Express.
Ho tv Soon Will the war End? —The New
York Times says this question is asked, in pub
lic and private, a hundred times a day, aud but
few of the answers are ever based upon any sound
reasoning or reliable facts. It is in small, al
most iusiguificam occurrence and expressions
that tue true condition of the rebellion, and that
of the people o! the South, is most truly indi
cated. A Rieumond paper of a recent date an
nounces with exttemegratification the arrivalof
one hundred livetat hrg- in the ue ghbormg city
of Pe ersburg, styles it a ‘ very pleusaut kind of
inva-ion,” much more agreeable than to be “in
vaded by a hundred lean, slab-sided Yankee
prisoners,” coming to eat pork instead of pro
ducing it. Anotner article recommends a plan
by whioh every portion of tho cattle and hogs
slaughtered for the use of individuals and the
army may be made available, and significan ly,
adds that iu /‘many portions of the Stales the
supply of these animals is exhausted.” Thus,
day after day, these little irrefutable indications
of the condition of the rebellion manifest tfient
selves in a plain, unprejudiced manner, aud are
worthy, therefore, ot general credence. Let
thoso who study the progress of tho war careful
ly note these certain developments, and th.;y can
obtain an idea of how soon tho war will end
which will bo far more tellable than if based ou
almost any other reasoning or hypothesis.
TheJpeople of [he South are so despotically
ruled that their demands tor peace will be sti
flad so long as there are bayonets at tho com
mand of tho rulers. But as tho progress of our
armies narrows still inure closely tlie country
on which they depend for food, actual star
vation, now threatened, will become an inovU
table tact, unless submission to tho rightful
Government is proinpiy aocorded. So long as
the lines ot the armies of the rebellion covered
theSiatisof Arkansas and Texas,
the weapon of starvation was ono on which wo
couldpJaojfc.no dependence. H*it tho condition
of affairs uuw just.fits ti.e public in placing some
dependence on the ui.iubiic.bio evidence of a
speedy dissolution widen appear irom lime to
time in tbo rebel journals, and wnich they can
cut repra: s if luuy would.

From the Charleston Courier, 13th.
Siege of Charleston,
TWO HUNDRED AND NINETEENTH DAY
Our citizens were aroused from their
slu tubers about two o’clock Friday tuorning,
by what was at first believed to be a gene
ral engagement. The cannonading was
terrific. The flashes of the guns lighting up
the whole horrizon, the bursting of shell in
the clear atmosphere, and the whizzing
of shot, rendered the scene one of awful
sublimity. Various speculations were en
tertained as to the cause of the tiring, when
it was discovered that all our batteries on
James’ and Sullivan’s Islands, as well as
those in the harbor, had simultaneously
opened fire on Morris’ Island. The enemy
made no reply, doubtless owing to the fire
keeping them close under the cover.
The cannonading was kept up for an
hour and a half with rifled and mortar
shells, mostly the latter. The practice of
our batteries was splendid, and is believed
to have been the most eftective ot tho siege,
nearly every shell exploding immediately
over the enemy’s batteries, demolishing the
Yankee calcium light atCumming’s Point,
and knocking down the flag staff at Bat
tery Gregg,
Between three and four o’clock, soon
alter our harbor batteries had ceased firing,
rapid and heavy artillery tiring, seemingly
with field pieces, was heard in the direction
of John’s Islam!. It was reported that a
fight was going on between our own and
the enemy’s forces, the latter having been,
it is believed, largely reinforced. No de
tails of tliis atlair were received by us last
evening. As will be seen in our telegraphic
columns, however, General Wis.; has driv
en the enemy to their gunboats and was
still in pursuit.
A dispatch trom Gen. Wise, dated at
Fripp’s, John’s Island, at six P. M., of the
11th, reports that the enemy came up in
lorce, when we opened lire upon them at
twenty five minutes past three o’clock.—
The enemy ceased firing at forty minutes
past five o’clock and retreated, with our
cavalry in pursuit. They lelt some wreck
behind of small inns and disabled horses.
In this engagement we lost none.in killed.
One man severely and another slightly
wounded, and one missing, are reported as
the total number of casualties.
A Yankee prisoner captured reports the
enemy’s force consisted of two brigades, one
of them commanded by a Colonel, with six
pieces of artillery. He says they started,
last Saturday night, coming up by the way
of the Kiawah, and landed on Johnson’s
Island. Ut the forces engaged he seemed
to know very little, but mentions the 41st
New York, 127iit and 74th Pennsylvania,
the former commanded by Col. Vau Gilsie;
one or two Ohio regiments, oueul them the
Gdtli, and tho 70th Connecticut. The 4lst,
to which he belongs, has been stationed on
Folly Island.
The following are the casualties iu the
Cadet Rangers, Capt M. B. Humphrey:
Captain Humphrey, wounded in the foot
and leg; Lieut Hosier, mtsaing; JSergeant
Dulard, supposed to be killed; Corporal
McDowell, missing; Corporal Appleby, Pri
vates Bramron and L >rm, wounded; Pri
vate 11. VValfole, of the vJtono Scouts, se
verely in the nee; . Capt Tcnnent, of the
59th Virginia, was wounded and is missing.
Private Pressley, of lire 25;!t S. C. V., was
severely wounded in the hand during tho
shelling ot Secessionvjile Wednesday by
tire enemy.
A great many of the Yankee tents on
Morris’lsland, it is reported, have disap
peared suddenly. All the steamers in
Lightwood Inlet have also disappeared,
leaving nothing there but supply end other
schooners.
Only four allots were fired upon the city
Thursday night. One shot was also fired
at Fort Sumter Thursday night and missed.
There was no other news ot interest.
Passports.—Tho beauty of the passport aya*
tern is illustrated by tho fact that a hundred
Yankee officers can esrapo beyond the limits of
(he city without passports, and Without being
challenged by the pickets presumed to La posted
on tho various outlets from Richmond. Loyal
citizens aro required to obtain passports, but all
i>therß/if they do not choose to buy tho precious
. crap of paper, styled “a passport,” must make
their way out, by “flanking tho pickets.”—
