BILL. w »# of this morning bring the sad in j>f M os the death ofthU eminent Confederate *J"ii the last battles around Richmond. Nooffi °* o( the army has more gallantly illustrated the Moor and chlfairy of the South upon the enaao. |o#( j fields of battle, than Gen. Hill; no one has rendered better settle# or more cheerfully sacri* tod personal interests to the public good. His loss wtllbe Mrlonsly felt in the army and by the people at home. A gallant soldier, efficient officer and per feet gentleman, his- memory will erer lire in the hearts 'of a grateful people, and his name rank with those of the South’s most illustrious martyrs. Worth? of Emulation. Ought not our peopls, who Hate suffered com paratlfely Utile of war’s hardships, to blush at the record of noble deeds done by the down trodden people of Virginia, when contrasted with the selfish, cowardly croaking of many in onr midst? The more Virginia is oppressed the morn revolted are her citizens to continue the struggle. With ua it is those who have suffered least, aho complain most and urge submission. Let these learn a lesson of patriotic devotion from the fol lowing: The WytheviUe Dispatch says that animpromp tu meeting of the citizens of W ythe was held at WytheviUe on Monday, the 13th instant, for the purpose of seeing what could be done in the way of bread and meat contributions for General Lee’s army. The meeting bad not been advertised, and very many who would have given were not present.- 5 Speeches were made by Brig. Gen. Jno. Echols and Major Horace Lacy. Gen. Echols, who some time tiooe purchased for the use of his own fam ily one thousand pounds of pork and one hundred bushels of corn, donated one half of each to feed the war worn veterans of Gen, Lee’s army. A cable example and worthy of Imitation ! There were contributed on this occasion forty-six hun dred pounds of bacon, three hundred and twenty - five bushels of core, one thousand pounds of beef twenty-five bushels of wheat, and six barrels of flour. The Dispatch adds: “We feel warranted in saying that this is but a commencement for old Wythe. Her people prefer short rations to sub jugation, and are willing to endure many hard* slups for the sake of those who have gone forth in her defense. Let every man in every county of the Southwest come to the rescue, and the army will be fed. They must be fed, or we, as a people, will go down behind the cloud of subju gallon, darkened by our own avarice! ” The great agony^of keeping up our seacoast de fences ia over. New Orleans—-abandoned from the beginning—fell almost without a blow—the heaviest, moat disgracelul loss of the war. It severed ua from a most important eource of sup plies. It rendered co-operation in the military aflalrsttf two divisions almost impossible. It near ly doubled our frontier, opening from Cairo to Hew Orleans, through the very heart of our coun try, a secure base for the heaviest as well as the meet rapid concentration of forces at any point on that line, and leaving ua exposed to a correspond ing extent Then followed Memphis, Vicksburg Port Hud aon, ad a necessary sequenoe. At this time there were some, with eyes bleared by selfishness and hearts .quaking with pusillanimity, who were ready to cry out, “All is lost!” “let us make terms I” But the ones of the craven were stilled by the •torn-hearted manhood of the country, and fiually they ceased' to croak aloud. , Again: we lose Savannah, Charleston, Wilming ton ; and once more for a short time is heard the wailing of these poor weak things, who are again ready tb “make terms.” Thanks to the malicious Lincoln and the slimy|Seward, these submiissonists were left without a crum of comfort from Abra ham’s table. Even the reconstructionists have, with great unanimity, repudiated the husks that were so generously offered by the North, and have return ed to their duty and their country’s cause, with the cry of “war to the knife.” The glorious spirit now manifested thoughout the whole Confederacy will bring forth rloh fruit in the coming campaign; and the upstarts of the North, who, have fattened and grown lusty on our generosity in the past, would now play conquerors and tyrants, shall yet learn the “might that slumbers in a freeman’s arm.” Let our people but spurn the temptations of oase and luxury; let them but cultivate true man hood and a Spartan defiance of hardships, and lot them but hate the false and treacherous foe, first swindled us, then deceived us, then outraged us, and who, finaliy, would crush, conquer and enslave us, and we shall be doubly nerved for suffering, and for revenge. Wo have already the glimmering of the dawn of better success. From Shelby, in the West, and from Johnston, on the South, we have tokens that thejjtide of defeat that has so steadily set against us baa reached its flood. Let us deserve success, and with this campaign it may yet be ours. [Richmond Whig 2*l th, nit. Blockade Running. —We publish iu this paper the order of General Grant prohibiting ail trade under Treasury or other permits with points with in the “rebel lines within the States of Virginia, North and South Carolina and Georgia,” and de* daring void all contracts made under said per mits. Those disposed to enter into this sort of trade with the Yankees would do well, therefore, to look into the matter before starting off with their cargoes, lest the whole should, to use a cant expression, be shored op the spout. If our own Government will not put a atop to this branch of •peculation, we are glad to see that Gen. Grant has takeu the matter in hand. There is plenty of bloodsucking going on now without this question able traffic.— Columbias Enquirer. Hioh Handed.—On Friday night last, two men brought a man into the front room of this office whom they had drugged and robbed of about two thousand dollars.

Letter from Jlonigomery, kiONrooMfaT, April 9tb, 18fl6. Gen. Oavlor, congressman from Texas, sta es the Gen. Kirby Smith has been instructed to id opt, as Jiia judgement may deem best, to either attack New Orleans, cross the Mississippi river to this side, or move into Missouri. Toe Gene al thinks the last suggestion will be adopted. Tbe Mississippi cannot well be crossed. Gen. Ta for tried this two months last year without success If our array, which is generally thought to be 3 ),• 000 effective meu, can march into Missouri at. t le right season of the year It will require a great ef fort by the Fcderais to dislodge him. It will be a oowerful diversion in favor of Gen. Lee. It is supposed the movement is now being effected.—- There are no dangers of Texas being Invaded.- There are few streams there, at times there are severe droughts, and subsistence often preeario is —would especially be so to an invading army.— The other States would be defended, because the whole force of the Federate d with Gen. Smith. * ww All regret the fail of Richmond, but approve the measure. Judge Chilton says it ought to have been done long ago. The measure will add strength to the areny. People here—those of the right stamp, and they are a decided majority—arc strongly hopeful. Gen. Forrest reports the enemy still iu Selma. Major Gen, Joe. Wilson is in command. Forrest is watching them closely. Cavalry from here have gone dowu to watch movements from thte side. Montevallo has hewn garrisoned by the enemy. They have canted off all stock and negroes. There are no Yankees near Talladega. A flag of truce the other day was sent to Selma to get away from that place, t wife of Brig. Gen. Adams. Near Benton they met about twenty four Confederate scouts in lull flight who report ed a large hodv of Federate pursuing them. Far ther on tbreff Yankee cavalrymen were met who wera hugely enjoying the sport of running eight times their number of rebels. This wa3 doubtless, the party that produced such a scare at Benton and in Montgomery. Going on the party were met by Captain William* and Deilaven of General Wilson’s staff. The flag was not allowed to visit Selma, but was received on this ride. Wilson de clined at present to send Mrs. Adams through the lines, but assured the party that she would be treated with utmost kindness, When he captured Selma, he visited Mrs. Adam* and promised her respect and protection. He treats the people kindly. Being in haste to report the result of their mission, the Confederates decline J* the din ner which Wilson said he was preparing for them, whereupon he ssnt ovtr lunch, cigars, &c., for them. Rev. Mr. Small, the Presbyterian minister, and Mr. Williams of the Reporter, and three or four other citizens of Selma are reported to have been k’lied in the trenches. In Selma half of the Goldsby block from Cun ninghams drug store to Stephens book store were burned, including the Episcopalian church. The residence and stores belonging to P. J. Weaver were also burned. A report ia broisp’ t b~ negroes from Red Moun tain that the Uni vc< it;- 'if Alabama Cadets were captnred in Selma.

Cotton is being pteced on the principal streets leading from the city to make barricades with, in order for defense against a cavalry force. The authorities are active and energetic. Few citizens to be seen on streets. Passports are still demanded, and good must be the excuse to get off. The rumor is again revived that Mobile ia being evacuated. Ido not know what truth there is iu it. I am informed Gen. Roddy is here looking for hia brigade—a hard thing to find. Rumor. New York Uloney Market. There was intense excitement at the opening of busiuess this morning, both in the gold room and on the Stock Exchange, according to tho indica tions last evening. The panic was wilder than at any previous stage of its progress, and the press ure to sell among the gold speculators was almost equalled at the stock board when Government se curities were called. Five-twenties, which sold at yesterday’s second board at 106£, declined to lOOi a 101. .Ten-forties fell from 93 to 89£, and sixes of 1881 from 107 to 103?}. Railway securities were similarly pressed for sale, and the transac tions were large. Gold, after selling as low 153, reacted to 159£ ; but the improvement was partially lost during the afternoon, under heavy sales by the bears, the downward tendency being assisted by the report of the occeupation of Goldsboro’. Already failures are numerous, in fact; but they will not announce themselves unless under com pulsion, aud as credits mature during the next fortnight they will be likely to appear in rapid suo cessiou, and how far the evil consequences of the legal teuderact may extend is entirely uncertain. Only one stock board failure was reported to-day in the streets; but other failures were reported. la the dry goods trade one house is announced, besides which several other suspensions are rumored, aud similar reports prevail with regard to firms in the pro duce trade. From present appealauees a formidable list of bankruptcies may be looked for, and a general commercial panic unless a rise iu the gold premium exercises a corresponding effect upou prices for stocks and merchandise. Nearly all the speculators in gold and stocks are “short,” and they are still using their best efforts to renew panic aud precipitate the tall of gold for their own aggrandizement. Such a horde of Pariahs and Judas Iscariots as are now endeavoring to fatten themselves upon military victories was never before assembled in any country, not excepting France during the great revolution. They speculate in the fortunes ot thepountry just as they would gamble at tho faro table! It is to be regretted that these cosmo politan vultures are aided in their endeavors by men who are professedly frieudiy +o the financial and com- j raercial interests of the country, and who seli gold down beyond the limits of reason for their personal enrichment. That the same men will soon be foreing gold upward in like manner, for thetr own profit, sug gests an uuflattering reiiectiod.— Nino fork Herald MarJi £l, " Yankee prisoners, to the number of 600 from Sherman’s army, were- last week brought into Charlotte, N.

CvmmonU of European Jouraals oil the FALL or CHARLESTON. The London Times says the inflhence of the success at Charleston can hardly be exaggerated. The moral effects cannot but be most powerful on the conduct of the war. It Is seen that the pop ulation of the Bout hern States is not able to op pose the march of the Federal armies. The ad vance from Savannah to Charleston seems to have been as easy as the march from Atlanta to Savan nah. * The Star regards the fall of Charleston as pre monitory of the utter overthrow of the rebel lion. . The Army and Navy Gazette says the evacua tion of Ohai leston and Columbia, and the con centration of garrisons, will strengthen the hands of Beauregard, Hardee ana Hill; but the Con federates are placed in a position of exceeding danger, from which it will require greater genius than ever Lee and Davis have as yet exhibited to extricate them. The purpose of Grant becomes more obvious as the campaign proceeds. He holds Lee fast, and thus paral) zes the strongest arm and neutralizes the greatest force of the Confederacy. The news was published too late on the 3d for the Liverpool and Manchester markets. But the first effect was one of depression, and cottoo de clined, The rebel ram Stonewall continues at Ferrol, watched by Union vessels. The truth of the re port that she was leaking is not confirmed, and she continues to take on board a large quantity of coal. In the House of commons, on the Bd, Mr. Shaw Leferve naked whether the attention of the Gov ernment bad been directed to a certain minute of instructions alleged to have been issued *by the Confederate Government with reference to the seizure and disposal of Confederate cruisers, of neutral vessels, without adjudication by a prize court; «hethtr such instructions met the appro val of the Government ; if not, what metUnre would be. taken to prevent their being carried out. Mr, Layard replied that the attention of the Government had been given! to the instructions in question, and they were entifely disapproved. It would not, however, be consistent with the inter ests of the public service to state what steps had been taken regarding them. The Liverpool Post, iu an editorial contending against a probable war between England and America, says : “In a note from a member of the Government, received in Liverpool, on the 2d, occurs the following passage: “I hear the city ia uneasy about America, We have, -however, more pacific acd satisfactory declarations from the United States Government than for a long tirno past has been the case.” The Post thinks the fiew minister goes out to reciprocate the words of amity recently trans mitted across the Atlantic. The Eondgn Times says the fall of Charleston ia a victory which will recompense the Unionists for many labors, and encourage them to pursue, with renewed vigor, the conquest of the South- It believes that, Although the South is now virtu ally shut out from the world, it will continue to show unabated obstinacy in defense. The Daily News contents itself by editorially de tailing the operations of Geo. Sherman in a strain of eulogy. The Morning Post argues that Charleston was evacuated as a strategic necessity, and says : Gen. 3hermau’s movements have been character ized by foresight and accurate calculations, which place him in the foremost rank of the generate of the present day. J3T The people of North Carolina until recent ly, with the exception of those residing in the counties on the sea coast, and portions of our fiSountain district, have been wonderfully pre served from the horrors and hardships of the war. Ail of course have felt it to a greater or less extent; but few comparatively have been forced into immediate contact with the Yankees except on the battle field. Within the present month our fate has been different. Wherever .Sherman’s or any other Yankee force have cov- Vrerl our soil, bbght and ruin have followed. The verdict which the Yankees themselves have made up, that “in North Carolina the Union sentiment strongly prevails,” has had no effect to lessen the outrages of the enemy, but has served to gratify their propensity to abuse and outrage our people. The reveDge and malice of the Yankee army is only equalled by the same spirit which predomi nates in the bosom of the Yankee President, the Yankee Congress, the Yankee press, and the Yankee people. Every wheve tho same spirit of hatred to us prevails, which to all appearances can only be appeased, by filling up the cup of vengeance against us and making us drink it to the dregs. In all the State lying East, Southeast and South of this city, the incursions of the enemy bid fair, unless Providence shall speedily remove him by the hands of Gen. Johnston and our brave soldiers, to destroy all prospect of a crop for the present year. The severity of the winter and the lateness of the spring, had pre vented almost all preparation for a crop. Just at the time when our planters were making arrangements for pitching the crop, the appearance of the enemy and the necessary advance of our armv, suspended all op erations in that direction. The seizure of teams, corn, meat and provisions of all kinds, has nearly stripped the people bare in that region, of what thev had to re ly upon to make another crop, and now the future is only filled with dismal forbodings as to what can or cannot be done. Many have been reduced to abject want and the general scarcity of provisions, renders it impossible to meet the necessary wants of the people. Rad as the case is, we are glad to find the spirit of the people Rallying from the despondency which seemed ready to overwhelm them. Iu the raidat of the severity of the losses which they have experienced, many seemed ready to faint under the load, but a few dava of repining were enough, and now their energies are being aroused and their purpose to* resist to the death, becomes the watchword. Let our people take courage. The days of trial may not be over in a day. Hardships still more severe may await us, but let us prove ourselves true men and 'women capable of en durance, bent upon resistance, and determined to per ish in the struggle for honor and liberty. Ease, pro perty or promotion are nothing compared to these, without which life would be a burden and a cursfj. RaCiegh Oomerpiti'je 2W4 ult. Pi ofeeaor Agassiz is aoGh to sail for South Ameri ca, on a scientific exploring expedition, to test his glacial theory. He will be acccmmpauied by eight assistants, and the entire expeu3e of the trip —some twenty thousands—will bo borne by Na thaniel Thayer, cf Boston. Professor Agassiz ex pects to bring home with him the largest collec tion of ironical specimen which has ever been gathered. Tne Cambridge Museum, which they will enrich, has received in voluntary cqntribu tion«, doling the iast year, nine thousand eight hundred dollars, and thoustnd dollars has boon expended upon it in the same time. On Thuraduy last, says the Marianna News of the3o*h uit., a detachment of cavalry, fifteen in num ber, under Lieut Jos. B. Barnes, encountered about one hundred and fifty deserters near Douglas’ Ferry, on )he Cboctawha»chee river, and after a snort engage ment, they were compelled to retreat, their ammuni tion being wet.

Mis Mr wss brought fare fttdty t&* iittttsd rfitk ffiiU* yiiifi imiitTitiiift ** Yankee War Bxpenm. Mr. Long, in his speech in the Federal House of Representative*, a portion of which we pub lished some time since, has tbs following upon the Yankee war expenses ; But, Mr. Chairman, I turn from the contempla tion of this most inhuman and barbarous demand for extermination, to take a brief view of the finan cial condition of the country. One of the most interesting objects connected with the war is onr national debt. There is noth ing like it in all history ; nothing superior to it in amount; nothing to be compared to it in the lie which it gives to the loud boasting and vaunting, which are constantly heard. We boast,'or rather the war party boasts, of its disposition to give the last dollar and the last man to the Juggernaut ol blood that it worships. But what do they do ? They hardly give the first dollar. Not one fifth of the expenses of the war have been paid as it pro gressed. The other four-fifths have been coolly shoved off on posterity. Ye«, sir, I repeat: the men who boastingly proclaim their willingness to give the last dollar, now in the heat of the war fever, have never proposed to pay more than one dollar in fivo. If they, with feelings and passions so strongly enlisted, only pay one fifth, how will posterity cool and unim passioned posterity, regard the four fifths? What will capitalists tbiuk of the sincerity of their promise, fend of the probability of the future redemption? Will they invest, under the belief that the coming generation will pay foru fifths to redeem such promise and save the honor of their ancestors ? Recurring to the manner in which it was contracted, and re membering the facility with which their ancestors enacted a bankrupt law at the time of its coutrac tion, they may say that those who contracted the debt reiused to pay their proper share of it, and be tempted to repudiate the whole. [Here the hammer leil. • Mr. Stiles : I ask ibec the gentleman have the unan imous consent of the House to conclude his speech. N«> objection was made. Mr. Long: England, m her tremendous vrar3 with Napoleon and the greater part of continental Europe, which for long years was arrayed on hia side, and when her expenses went up to seven hundred millions a year, paid one half of the war expenses as she went aloDg. This was an evidence that they were not wil ing to seek the temporary promts which the war gave and then cast the burden on posterity. It was an earnest of the last dollar from which our war patriots have recoiled. It took Great Britain eighteen, hun dred years to run up & debt less in amount and at a rate of interest not one haif as great as that we have incurred in three and a haif years. These eight hun dred years reach from William the Conqueror to Vic toria. They embrace all her wars of conquest and de sense. In them are included the glories of the Ed wards and the Henries, of E'iz tbeth, of Cromwell, of Wiiltem, of Anne, and the Georges. They call to mind the memories of Agincourt anu Creasy, of Blen heim and Waterloo, of Marlborough and Wellington They embrace the gigantic wars with France, when she was four times, conquered, and when her towns were held by garrisons. They include the re pulse of the’Spanish Armada, the terrible civil ward Cromwell, and the g : gantic expenses ot her conbat with the T rench revolution, which alone lasted .oore than a quarter of a century, and during which sac had under her pay and subsidy the homes of Kusriaos, Asatrians Prussians and Geim >ns that twice dethroned Napoieon and twice marched to Paris. They include her seven years’ war ot coercou upon America ftfr the subjugation of.the seceded colonies; and they include the acquisition of a territory id alt parts ol the globe so immense that upon it the sun never sets Yes. ah this cost less than our three aud a half year ’ ui sent ble sectional war. We have been taught to reg>trd the British p.i em rnent as corrupt and expensive. It has hud iu: .lead and in its councils, many of the most corrupt aoci di.> honest men the world has ever known, and yet, with all its corruption and profl gacy, England to-day has u debt less in amount than the audited and unaudited debt, including the contingent war claims, that has already been incurred by this Administration in the piosecution of the war. A few more facta in illustra tion : The wealth of Greaf Britain ia thirty-two thousand million dollars. Our debt is the largest, and its interest is twice as great and yet Great Britain has three times as much property to be assessed for taxa tion as the United States, The armies of Europe to day are four and a half million men, which is about the number of male adults iu the United States, and yet the cost of maintainiug these almost fabulous ar maments is not half as great as that of the Uuited States. Europe has the accumulated wealth of cen turies, she has ber two hundred and fifty millions people, and she maintains five or six times as many soldiers in the field as we do, at half the expense—l mean at halt the expense that we have promised to pay, for not a dollar of it has yet bean paid. If Europe is oppressed and ground to the earth with her war ex pauses, what would be our condition under the actual money system ? 1 do not suppose, Mr. Chairman, that one half, probably not one third of this debt has been incurred in the legitimate prosecution of the war. The evidences of the debt are not in the pay of the soldiers, who get less than their exposure entitles them to receive, but are to be seen m the marble pal aces, in the luxurious equipages that dazzlesoresplen dently around the persons and the Government cor tractors; there is where the money has gone which we have promised to pay, and upon which promises they have realized; you will find it accounted for in part in the report and speeches of the honorable gen tleman from Massachusetts (Mr. Dawes). Traces of it may be seen in the affair of the Calaline, the Op-' dyke trial, and in other disclosures of a similar char acter. The substantial reason why great Britain paid one-half of her war expenses as they were incurred, while we pay little or nothing, is because the ciass of persons to whom the debt in England was owing sal in Parliament and voted the taxes; in our country, ou the contrary, it is those who have to assist in paying the debt that have the privilege of enacting the laws. Beyond this, and therefore eoouected with the pay meht of this huge incubus, lies the spectre of a des potic Government, with its standing army, indispen sable auxiliaries in the work.
