On the morning of the 31st May, the Flag of the Confederate State* was found grandly floating from a staffupon the Custom-Houne in Jackson rille, Fla. It was placed there during, tbe night, by some un known hand-, creating an agreeable surprise and naturally awakening emotion* in the beholder, as it for the - first time met his view in the early morn. The circumstance suggested the following lines: Oh I say ffiiFyotr see through the data's early light, The Flag of the South, no w so madly unbraided, ’Twas flung to the breeze in the silence of night, And blazed when the star* of the morning all faded 1 ‘Twas the Flagcf the South. Now unfurled to the sty, As free as the breeze that lifts it on liigliq) And, oh ! may the South when her night gloom is past Rejoice in her mor’hirrg, triumphant at last.- Some Randi all onseww raised that banner in air, Though Freedom Irefiielifit.low bending her form And saw tlu? proud jewels that fell from 1 her hair Undimmed on the Flag that was set to the storm. ’Twas tbe Flag of the South, With its stars ever bright, In the sheen of the day or the gloom of ttiC'nigllt,- And, oh ! may the South, when tbc gloom speeds away, Be pure as her Flag in the sheen of her dhy. The Flag, Oh Columbia 1 we cannot forget Thy stars that have gladdened the world’with their light - Thy stripes that with tears and with tomposts are wet-t Seem to fall and to droop in the chaos of night, While the flag of the South, Like a night rising star. Or a new bursting meteor, streams grandly afar. Oh ! the “Star Circled Banner” the South has un furled, . May it stream ever on till it blesses the world. Oh ! say can you see in the dim distant sky, The stripes still aloft and the stars still aglow, And feel not the sparkle of joy in your eye, Or deep thrill of pleasure your bosom to know, That the Star Circled Flag Os the South will not drag, Nor trail the old glories that cling to the rag? For her sons have the “Star Circled Banner” un furled, And will bear it aloft till it blesses the world. THE INVADING THIEVES. The correspondent of the South Carolinian, writing from Fairfax, Va., reports: The threat of confiscation is an induce ment held out to the hungry freesoil senti ment of the North. In victory, they will hope for a free farm. Thus does this Gov ernment embark with land piracy ns part of itb-jirogramme. Is such robbers viola - ive 'Bf the law of nations or of civil'zed '- -7 - 'TT 1 ? ■ .»; r,,re , this war pro ’ ceeda much further, it will ne the most mer ciless ever waged by two civilized peopl i A few days ago, one of Col. Williams' picket sentinels was shot at, the ball passing through his bat. Yesterday, one of our independent scouts shot a man across the Potomac, above Alexandria. The woods here are well adapted to independent scouting, and a few thousand Texas Rangers would do good ser vice in picking off their videttesand pieketts These men come among us as robbers, and should be treated as such. I met the other d -y with a very respectable gentleman, who lives between here and Alexandria, who nar rates the following: He was the owner of an old negro man and two younger men. He left them on his farm, having confidence in their fa thfulness and in the honesty of the enemy. They, how ever, visited his farm, and asked the old man if he did not want his freedom. The old fel low told him no; that he was living near the line, and if he desired it, could have obtained it at any time within the past twenty years, by simply crossing over. They asked him other questions, but as he was old and infirm, they left him, but carried off the two boys. Gen. Tyler, for it was he who asked them if they did not want their freedom. “Oh yes, sir,” said one of them. “Would you like to fight for us ?” “Yes sir, and I would shoot my old master the very first man.” This gave them great confidence in the faithful but artful respondent, so they put him in uniform, mounted him on horseback, and treated him with other marks of favor. He, however, had not wavered in the slightest degree in his fidelity, and was taking observations of the points. After having possessed himself of all the neco sary iuformat on, he started off before day one morning and came to to this place. His master carried him to Gon. Bonham, who obtained from him very valuable information, as he had not only ascertained the location of the batteries, but the number and calibre of their guns. The other boy remained in Alex andria. The wife of the owner of tlie boy called on Col. Wilcox, to know if she could take him away. Wilcox was very polite; answered her that she could, if she would give him good bond nud security.' This, he d ’ubtless thought, she could nut give, for having obtained it and reported to him, be read it over, and in a manner totally differ ent from that first assumed, told her that tbe bond was “not worth a damn.” She begged him to inform her in whut respect it wasdefi cient, so that the amendment might be made Ho then told her that the truth was, be did not int n I she s'lou.d have h'm under any circumstances. Such is the character of the enemy. It is unreasonable, therefore, to anticipate that our struggle with them will become one in which quarter will neither be asked nor given. What we want here now is, an army large enough to keep the plunder, era back—to carry the war upon their own -o;l—and strike terror into their covetous hearts. Let us fill them with uneasiness con corning the retention of what they now have, and they will soon lose sight of plunder here. .A foreigner nnmo l Haywood W* tjwrrcri and cottoned in New Orleans; oti "aturday last, for having joined several and refut-hijr *'> 4*> the Cds* Stf WET.

There is a desire expressed by many of onr Georgia exchanges, that the opening of the new order under the Confederate league aud government, should be marked by a total suppression of all the evils and abuses and trickery connected with the old system of caucus and Convention. In that desire we heartily concur, and trust the reform will be extended to all the State* severally in their own elections, and to Con' federate elections. Let there be full and free nominations, and a genuine election, but no packing or forcing a choice didates of caucus.— Chas. ■ Just.—lt is the practice in the British army throughout the world, for each soldier to frank his own letter, by merely putting on the cor ner of the letter or envelope “Soldier’s let ter.” This i» respected by all the British Post Offices and mails throughout the world as a free frank.
