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 Medal or Honor. —The Hichmoi.d Dis

sent this year, by the recipients, to tho Sec

coin for the use of the Coiei’inienil and
that the acknowledgement from tl.c Secre

earnest of merit, as the medal itself, Miss M.
T. Mayo, one of otlF most pi and
talented young ladies, daughter of the late l
Philip Mayo, cheerfully donated her valu
able testimonial for the pur|ore ibdicsted.
It will be gratifying to our citlzeis

they will from the admirable letter of the

part of the young ladies of our land .

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. In view of the sacrifices
made by our volunteers and soldiers, and the
small pay received, we would suggest that
some provision be made for carrying their
letters free cf postage.
