CONST LTUTIOjSTALIST.
From uurEveniuf; Kdltlou of Yesterday
The Southern Press.
The following just and fitting tribute to the
tone of the Southern press, under tlie circum
stances in which these States are placed, is
from Ihe Rochester (N. Y.) Union and Amer
ican.
“Raving watched with care the progress ol
events in the South since the cessation of hos
tilities, and having looked with no little solici
tude to the press of that section with a purpose
to know how the situation was accepted, we
are compelled in candor to concede that the de
velopments, so far, arc as favorable as true
Union statesmen could expect, or the most
sanguine hope. The leading journals of the
Mouth accept the situation in which they And
their States at the close of a war that termina
ted adversely to their hopes, and regard the
Union as inevitable. They, therefore, have set
themselves about helping the people to make
the most and the best of their situation—to get.
into fraternal relations ouce more with the
States that remained loyal—to enter the path of
peace, there to cultivate the soil and pursue the
avocations of civil life, that will make them
again comfortable, and repair, in some degree,
fortunes shattered in the conflict.
“No one can read the Southern papers with
fairness, and without bias, and not admit their
tone under the circumstance. To charge that
they are offensive, and not conducted with de
cency or propriety, is, to say the least, very un
just ; hut these charges go out from a source
where fairness cannot be looked for—where
there is not even that magnanimity for a fallen
l'oc that characterize tribes of men who are not
classed as civilized. We know that now and
then something offensive may be found in a
Southern paper, and this is of course seized
and circulated and fed upon as a choice morsel
by those whose aim is to disturb peaceful rela
tions everywhere, and who, in their madness,
delight to ride upon the whirlwind they can
create.”
Modern Young-Ladyism in England.— ,
If Queen Charlotte, of snuff taking memory,
should re-visit the glimpses of the moon, she
would sen and hear nucli to make her venerable
hair stand on end. —She would stare in mute
horror at a pork-pie hat, and shudder at the
slang which now-a-days slip so naturally from
the lips of sweet seventeen. But what would
astonish her most, what would appear to her
to amount to little less than a social revolution
Would be the total disappearance of that ele
ment of distance and reserve which marked
the relations between young persons of the
opposite sex in her young days. The theory
of a young lady’s position is so altered that
her grand mother would not recognize it for
the same which she herself once occupied in
all the glory ol a high-l'rizzled head and a pre
ternaturally shortened waist-
A better understanding exist between the
young people of the two sexes. They mix
with each other more, and known each other
much more intimately. The wall of partition
which used to divide them is thrown down.
The pervading tone of their common every-day
relation is no longer one of stiffness and for
mality, but of boyish frankuess and familiarity.
For good or for evil, young ladjdom has aban
doned its old attitude toward the other sex of
armed observation.
For good or for evil, it has been driven by
the pressure of its matrimonial exigencies to
emancipate itself from the thraldom of old
fashioned notions of propriety. It has quitted
the old defense, and goes forth now-a-days to
encounter man, as diplomatist say, “on its own
responsibility.”
She was regarded and treated much as a ten
der lamb in the near vicinity of wolves. The
upproaehes'to the fold were strictly guarded.
A duenna, clothed with despotic powers, warn
ed off male marauders. This lamb-and-wolf
theory is quite exploded. Young ladiesare no
longer lamb-like in anything, except it be in the
sportive agility with which they frisk over the
barriers of ettiquette. Nor is the male sex
credited now-a-days with the wolfish propen
sities with which a prudish generation invested
it.
The Sequel. —Mr. John Montgomery, his
blushing bride and her indignaut fatlier, Pro
fesor Hawkins, were brought up before our
Police Court ou yesterday, tbr a breach of the
peace. The runways sought an interview with
the professor, to try to eoncilate him and get
his blessing upon their clandestine iparriage.
They fell upon thierknees before him. but,
instead of bestowiug, the hoped-for blessing,
he spurned them from his presence with such
violence that the City Marshall thought it ue
cessarv to lodge information against him
•and his son-inlaw; for Mr. Montgomery is
known to be a man of spirit, and not even for
tlie sake of his lovely Griselda would he submit
to such outrage, Our colored community are
profundly agiated upon the subject.—Frank
fort ( Ky.) Yeoman.
Professor Hawkins is the agent of the Freed
mens Bureau. He is very indignant, strange
to say, that bis daughter has married a negro.
Is Animat. Food Necessary?— Mr. Cur
ling, seventeen years agent on the Devon estate
in Ireland, says: “There are 6,680 persons
on the estate. They are energetic, moral, and
well-behaved. Ido not remember a crime in
seventeen years, not even so much as stealing
a chicken. They are a contented, grateful
people —grateful even for fair play. Out of six
hundred farmers, deduct fifty, and the rest do
not see a wheaten loaf, or smell meat, except
at Christmas and Easter. They have been
brought up to this custom. One tenant on
the Devon estate I have seen sit down to pota
toes, buttermilk and Indian meal, who pur-,
chased at a recent sale £lO, 000 worth of prop
erty, and did not have to borrow a shilling to
pay for it. I believe this to be the usual mode
of living in Limerick.”
What is Moral, Wiiat is Patriotic Now-'
a-Days? —ln Milford, Masschusetts, the chU-<
dren of Roman Catholic parents were i'nstruc-,
ted not to conform to certain regulations con
sisting iu signing moral and patriotic songs and
bowing the head during the prayer. The con
sequence is that a large number of the Irish
childreu are out of school, and have appeared
in procession in the streets.
Trinity Church Property. —The valuable
leases which have been so long held by William
B. Astor, of thejlproperty called the Trinity
church estate, in New York, expire by limita
tion to-day, when the church will come Into
the management. The value of the numerous
lots included in the leasehold is upt far from six
millions of dollars.— ti'ew York Herald.
The Late Hon. George E. Badger.— The
New York Watchman revives a letter of intro
duction to Judge Story, which was given on
one occasion by Mr. Webster to Judge Badger.
The letter was in the following brief and char
acteristic words :
“ Dear Sir : I present you my friend, Hon.
George E. Badger, of North Carolina—your
equal, and the superior of yours, very respect
fully, D - Webster.
There is an eulogy that will last forever.
A negro preacher was fined $5 in Cairo, the
other day, for expounding the gospel with his
fists, on the head of one of his flock.

A Georgia Plantation—lnspected by a
Northerner.
“Our own correspondent” of the New York
Times reports to that paper of the 31st from
Americus, as follows:
There are several very large plantations in
this neighborhood where hundreds of freedmen
are employed working under the supervision of
skilled managers, the owners residing in towns
in other portions of the State. I have just re
turned from a visit to one of the largest, the
property of an “ ex-rebel” of considerable pro
minence, where I was most hospitably received
by the managers, who showed me all the ins
and outs of plantation life with perfect frank
ness, explained the internal economy with great
cheerfulness, conduced me on horseback over
the whole place, and gave me much valuable In
formation of a practical character in relation to
that all absorbing subject—the crop.
I conversed treely with some of the freedmen,
went into the houses of several, saw their wives
and families, and sincerely wished when I had
cancluded my very interesting visit, that Mr.
Greeley and other enthusiastic negrophilists
who still bemoan the condition of the colored
race, could have seen anil heard what I sawand
heard. I have traveled a good deal in the course
of my life in various countries and climes, and
Ido not hesitate to say that I have never seen
laborers so well fed, clothed and lodged, so
cheerful, contented and comfortable as there.
They are all the former slaves of the proprie
tor, born and bi ought up on the place where
their fathers and grnnfat hers lived before them,
and now., under contract for the year, receiving
for their labor Ample food of the best quality
for themselves and families, full clothing both
for summer and winter, their doctors’ bills paid
for them, and besides the right to raise fowls,
vegetables and syrup, and to have one-fourth of
the cotton crop. If you calculate the value of
this compensation, I think you will agree with
me that no farm laborer in any country gets
better wages, and that it must be his own lault
if lie does not thrive. Certainly no white la
borer at the North can do as well. Besides as.
many vegetables as they can cut —peas, beans,
cabbage, potatoes, squash, etc., each full hand
has three and a half pounds of prime bacon, a
peck of meal, some rice and syrup every week,
well and cleanly cooked by women employed
for the purpose. 1 was present when the hands
dined, and can assure you I partook of the meal
with considerable relish, however an habitue of
Delmouieo’s might turn up his nose at such
plain food. The clothing was ample, substan
tial and apparently new. Every hand was well
shod ; and, with the exception of some women
adding to the colored population, a few chil
dren, and one or two sickly and infirm men, I
never saw a more robust set of people, num
bering in all somewhat over two hundred.
Their cabins are roomy, well ventilated,
neatly whitewashed, and, for negroes, clean and
tidy. In all that relates to health and comfort
and decency, their cabins are palaces compared
to the lodgings of the laborer in New York
City. The hours of labor required by the con
tract are from sunrise till sunset, with an inter
val of two hours for dinner. Oil this particular
place the managers informed me that the con
tract was faithfully observed, but that this as
siduity was an exception and not the rulq»an'd
that on other places the trouble was the diffi
culty in getting the hands to do full work.
, The freedmen witli whom I conversed seemed
to take great pride that they “ b’longed on de
plantation ;” that they had been born and raised
there; and they expressed the warmest affection
for their “ ruass.a and de family,” who, “do
dey was free, giv doth such a chance to git
along.”
There is a church and school for the children,
kept up at the expense of the proprietor, and
well attended, I was told, by both sexes.
The cotton and corn crops on this place, con
sisting of several hundred acres of both, looked
very promising. Tftc seed was carefully chosen,
planted in the right time, and well worked.
The wheat was almost totally destroyed by a
hail storm about three weeks ago. The hogs
of all hogdom seemed to have congregated here.
I never saw such a drove of all sizes and shapes
and ages, all fat and sleek, and enjoying liberty
in its fullest and most primitive sense. The
ordinary meat crop of this planter is from
80,000 to 100,000 pounds of cured meat.
The managers, who are practical farmers of
intelligence, having devoted themselves to this
puruit, laugh at Mr. Stephens’ three million
bales estimate of the growing crop, and think
that he showed far more sagacity in answering
Mr. Boutwell’s interrogatories tbau in his cal
culations about cotton.
On my way to this place I met several plant
rhrir ptmifirfiOUS "TTI" lIfISHIKt ttlC
tier of counties between here and Alabama and
Florida. The most sanguine expect a two
thirds crop, but the average expectation was a
half. They atl condemn the five cents per
pound tax in unmeasured terms, as not oniy
unjust to the South, but ruinous In its results
to the whole country. Mr. Morrill would not
be flattered if he could hear the remarks made
on the sagacity and honesty of his revenue
scheme quoad cotton.
The investigation of Generals Steadman and
Fullerton into the operations of the Frecdmen’s
Bureau in Virginia and North Carolina, affords
much encouragement to the people hero that
when they probe the concern in this State they 1
will find actual cautery necessary lor a cure.
Delinquent and speculative agents may well
quake in their boots, for the people are now
busy as lawyers before court week, getting up
the cases which they are about to submit to the
investigating Generals, Nor will white men
be the only plaintiffs. There will be freedmen
prosecutors, and many of them. Unless lam
wickedly deceived, North Carolina malfeasance
will pale its ineffectual fires before the exploits
of the Bureau’s agents in Georgia. It lias been
for months a large negro trading establishment,
whose operations were conducted with quite as
much cruelty, rapacity and infamy as the most
abandoned “ nigger trader” ever practiced in
the pursuit of his degraded calling. Such is
the common rumor at least, and the stories are
very circumstantial.
Before la quit this part of “ the State, I
mean to visit other plantations in other coun
ties, and give you the result of my observation.
I have no doubt that this sort of information
has far more interest for your readers than any
political news I could gather. Politics here are
sadly monotonous. The present condition of
the people does not promote health. But news
of the crops, and of the colored brethren, in
volving tlie solution of that great problem—
free negro labor—has interest for all, whether
they be pure philanthropists of the Sumner
school, or political economists of the most ma
terial order, concerned in the working of the
gigantic experiment now in progress in this
section of the country. •

Albany — Southwestern Georgia. —lt is
gratifying to witness t he spirit of Improvement
which is manifested by our citizens, notwith
standing the embarrassments and difficulties
with which they have had to contend. Several
buildings have been erected, others are in pro
gress, and as soon as bricks can he obtained,
we learn that extensive and valuable improve
ments will he made. Among the aids to in
dustry which have recently been established
here, are saw. grist and flouring mills, cotton
and woolen factory, ifiachine flinishing shop,
variety works for planing, making sash blinds
and doors, etc. The life and energy of the
present give us strong hopes for the future.
Southwestern Georgia is a section of which
we caunot speak too highly. All things con
sidered-soil, climate, adaptability to all the
agricultural productions of the temperate zone
—the ease with which the laud is cultivated, the
certainty of crops, and its susceptibility of im
provement—make it one of the best, and it is
capable of being made one of the most beauti
ful of the many beautiful places on the earth.
All that is wanted to these ends are labor and
capital.— Albany Patriot.
Commerce of Charleston.— The Daily
News, of the 4th, says :
Our last report of the commdEcial transac
tions of the port exhibited an improved ten
dency both in the import and export trade.
The transactions for the month of May show a
falling off in both branches of this trade, and
arises tVom a combination of causes.
The sales of spring and summer goods have
been fully equal to the expectation of those
merchants engaged in the import trade, but as
the season is now considered fully advanced,
there has been a lull in the trade, but few coun
try merchants coming to market, being more
profitably engaged in agricultural pursuits.
The recent heavy failures in England have
greatly impaired confidence in our commercial
circles, and hence the usual exports of cotton
on private account have been very limited, the
bulk of the transactions being on accbunt of
parties in this country. To this cause more
than any other may be attributed the depression
and dullness that have characterized the cotton
market during the greater part of the month
juSt closed. Notwithstanding all these adverse
circumstances the following figures show a fair
and healthy condition in business transactions :
Receipts from customs ... $29,071 05

The Fenians.
The United States authorities seem to be
catching all the Fenians as they come hack from
Canada, though unable to slop them from go
ing over. The report that General Fitz. Lee
and other prominent Confederate officers were
iu the movement, which was too absurd for
contradiction, has died of itself, and is con
fessed to be without any authority. We append
some items of information in' addition to those
by telegraph:
ACTION OF THE UNITED STATES AUTHORITIES.
Buffalo, June 3. —This afternoon the asso
ciated press agent has just returned from a trip
to the steamer Michigan, anchared about four
miles below the city. There is a large flat boat
fastened to her guiis, having on hoard about
four hundred men, as near as could be com
puted. The Fenian officers captured are on
board the Michigan, under guard.
The captain of the Michigan is anxiously
awaiting instructions as to what he shall do
with his prisoners. United States District At
torney Dart is also awaiting instructions from
Washington as to their disposition. It is con
sidered unsafe to bring them ashore, as an ef
fort might be made by their friends to release
them. There is considerable excitement in this
city, but the general feeling is that the Govern
ment has done its duty, and our people are glad
that the Fenians have fallen into Americau
hands, rather than that thfey should have been
captured by the British force.
It is variously estimated that from 350 to
1,500 men tried to leave here last night in tugs
and flat-boats, probably to reinforce the Fe
nians, hut owiqg to the arrangements made by
the United States Attorney and General Barry,
in organizing picket boats, they were obliged to
turn hack. It is reported, but the report lacks
confirmation, that a force of Fenians have
landed at a point about ten miles above here,
on Lake Erie, and some fears are expected that
G’ollingwood is the point threatened.
It is stated that F. O. Day, Head Centre of
Buffalo, known as a prime mover in this region,
has been arrested on the other side, but this is
not confirmed.
A portion of two British regiments, the 10th
and 47ih, with seven companies of volunteers
and two batteries, now occupy the entire sliore
opposite here, to repel any fresh invasion from
this place. ..
By order of General Grant, General Barry
has iiad his military district extended, ancf it
now embraces the northern frontier from
Lake Erie to Oswego. A large additional force
of regulars has been ordered to report to hint
here.
THE FENIAN CHIEFTAINS.
The officer who captured Fort Erie, Col.
O’Neil, is a young and ardent Fenian, who is
now in his twenty-fifth year. He was formerly
connected with the 10th regiment of regulars,
and served in that organization under Gen.
Sweeney. He was well known as a dashing
cavalry officer in the late war, when he was at
tached to a Western regiment. He was pro
moted to a captaincy for daring gallantry. Col.
O’Neil, it will he remembered, was the officer
who captured the Confederate John Morgan,
whose sword he has how in his possession. The
sword was previously presented to Morgan by
some English sympathizers with the South.
GENERAL SPEAR.
This general, who lias charge of the Fenian
brigade who are now quartered in Canada, was
formerly a sergeant-major in the 6th regiment
of United States Infantry. He is an able officer.
COLONEL MURPHY.
The record of this officer, who served during
the late war, is one which shows him to tie fit
for the position he nu’w occupies. He was for
merly colonel of the 107th New York Volun
teers, one of the well known regiments which
joined the Corcoran Legion.
GENERAL WESSELS,
another leading officer in the Fenian army, is
the well known officer who commanded the
Department of North Carolina during the war.
He is h graduate of West Point.
One hundred and fifty men left Washington
City on the 3d, supposed to be soldiers for the
Fenian army, all of whom served in the Federal
army during the war. It is reported that Colo
nel F. O’Byrne has joined the Fenian army as
Assistant Adjutant General on the staff of Gene
ral Sweeney. The Feuian headquarters of
Washington for the sale of the bonds of the
Irish Republic has closed lor want of patron
age. The Head-Centre of Ireland. Jamoe «t,-

HO, FOR CANADA !
About one thousand Feifians passed through
this city on Friday night, en route from Phila
delphia to Eric—their destination, of conre, be
ing Canada. They were clothed in citizens,
dress. Two locomotives were required to draw
the train on which the “ Fenians ” were pas
sengers.—Harrisburg Telegraph-
Buffalo, June 3. —The Fenians evacuated
Fort Erie last night. Most of them attempted
to reach this shore. A small number succeeded.
«reral hundred were gobbled up by the United
tes boats guarding the river, and are now'
soners in a large fiat boat under the guns of
the United States gunboat Michigan, at Flat
Rock. The English forces, under Col. Peacock,
took possession of Fort Erie without a skir
mish.
The ultimate disposition of the prisoners is
a matter of conjecture. The British Minister
lias been telegraphed to on the subject. Gen.
O’Neil’s staff are among the captured. Three
hundred and thirty-two Fenian pickets left by
their friends, fell into the hands of the British.
Attempts were made to seud reinforcements
across to Canada, but were prevented by the
United States gunboats. Escaped Fenians re
port that they had no artillery and finding that
the British troops with Armstrong guns were
closing around them and no prospect of rein
forcements and no supplies they preferred
abandoning the ease in preference to hanging,
which they anticipated for their capture. By
order of General Barry, communication is for
bidden with the Canadian shore.
New York, June 3.— The colonel of the
Canadian volunteers was killed at the first fire.
Lieut P. 8. Routh was rtiortally wounded.—
When dying the lienteuant asked Gen. O'Neil
to return his sword, and permission was grant
ed. After the retreat some volunteers took
refuge on a steam tug in the river, but after
wards went, ashore and attempted to capture a
squad of Fenians. A large body suddenly ap
peared and attacked the volunters, who fled
precipitately and scattered through the woods.
Seventy of them were captured. Many ran
along the beach, which was covered with guns
and knapsacks.
Sherman’s Bummers at Home.— The New
York News of Wednesday says:
Several militia parades oecured at East, 'New
York recently, but the conduct of the Fourth
Regiment (Zouaves), Coloenl John E. Bendix,
on Monday, was inexcusbale. Some of the
members recklessly shot, a horse in the head
while standing in front, of a wagou on Broad
way. (or Davison Avenue, as it is more gener
ally known.) The horse belongs to Mr. James
Pilling, who resides in that vicinity. The
horse was not killed but rendered worthless.
The men of this regiment also stopped a
baker on the road, and while some held him,
others actually cut. out his pocket with a knife,
and robbed him of $9. They also “cleaned
out” Simmon’s Hotel, at the end of the Fulton
Avenue route, in a manner not at all creditable
to decent men. The proprietor was compelled
to close his place. In returning through At
lantic street to South Ferry, the militia men
shot their muskets out of the car windows and
endangered the lives of citizens.
Trial of Major Gee.— The Raleigh corres
pondent. of the \New York Herald thus writes
concerning this interesting ease:
The Military Commission which has been in
session lor several weeks at this place engaged
in the trial of Major John IJ. Gee, late of "the
Confederate service, and keeper of the prison
pen at Salisbury, for cruelty to Union prison
ers, has adjourned until the" 11th instant. It is
estimated that the trial, up to the present time,
has cost the Government a hundred and fifty
thousand dollars, and yet they have foiled to es
tablish an iota of proof criminating the pris
oner. Pei- contra , it is shown that lie did all he
could, with the means at his command, to alle
viate the wants of the Union men in bis custo
dy. The authorities at Washington should
forthwith discontinue the trial before a hundred
thousand dollars more is expended, censure sjie
court for its prodigality and discharge the pris
oner.
True as Holy Writ.—Mr. Hamilton writes
to tlie New York World apropos of the Holly
wood demonstration:
“If the mere exhibition of love and respect
for their departed kindred be held against the
Southern people as proof of incipient disloyalty
and defiance, then let every northern tyrant
who would deny them this last poor and only
boon remaining, understand once for always
that they must annihilate every man, woman,
and child in the South before they can claim
that despotic hold upon their consciences.
Not while life remains will Southern men and
women cease to cling to those natural affections
for the graves of their loved, ones which all
civilization sanctions and approves, which are
recognized by contending armies, even in the
wildest fury of the battle-field, and which are
more or less respected even among all untu
tored savages.”
Insanity. —The different sorts of insanity
are developing rapidly. We have “ paroxys
mal ” insanity, “ temporary ” insanity, “ pe
riodical” insanity, “catamenial” insanity,
“ spasmodic " insanity, “ insane delusions,”
and “homicidal” insanity. The latter, we
suppose, might be divided into “ fratricidal,”
“ maternal,” “ paternal,” “ matrimonial ” and
“neighborly” insanity. If we keep on, the
only son of insanity that will not excuse a man
for murder will be a genuine insanity.

It is an admitted fact that the Mexican Mustang Lini

beast, than any article ever discovered. Families, livery
men and planters should always have it on hand. Quick
and sure it certainly is. All genuine is wrapped in steel
plate engravings, hearing the signature of G. W. West

An effort has been made to counterfeit it with a cheap

It is a most delightful Hair Dressing.
It eradicates scurf and dandruff.
It keeps the head cool and clean.
It makes the hair rich, soft and glossy.
It prevents hair turning gray and falling off.
It restores hair upon prematurely bald heads.
This is Just what Lyon’s Kathairon will do. It is pretty
—it is cheap—durable. It is literally sold by the car-load,
and yet ita almost incredible demaud is daily increasing,
until there is hardly a country store that does not keep it,

application to enlarge the already enviablo reputation
