Pascagoula Hay. BY MATTHEW 0. FIELD. It is founded on a legend of Paaca gouln Hay* in Mississippi. An ancient tradition toils how a once stately and pow fu! tribe, many moons ago, was gradually reduced by confed« rate enemies, until the last fugitive remnant came to the shore of this beautiful Bay, and, uniting in the «leuth-song. Hung themselves enmassr, in despair, into its waters. Their wail is still heard on calm summer evenings, softened int* a tone as faint and low as a sigh : Moonlight is sleeping on the wave. Yon sandy trees'll shines in the ray, And silver are the sands that pave' Fair Pascagoula Bay. Yon isles of green sphii spirit-liound, While ~p 11-like silence floats around ; Ami yon mysterious object, mark ! Far o'er the glassy surface, nee The branching root of some dead tree Per p out above tlm shallow sea, lake water-spirit, dark. Like some lone spirit of the water Hazing upon the fair moonlight, Or sighing for some earthly (laughter In silence and in night. liiH-s sorrow dwell beneath the waves? in coral grot and crystal cave? And do the nymphs and naiads know To weep? Does now some fair Undine, Beneath von Uav of silver sheen, Hiding her face in tresses green, Drop amber tears of woe? All ! sorrow ever o'er the earth With i '.v a"" , almost hand in liand; ! Changing and mingling joy and mirth j Thick as yon silver sand. The songsters on their summer wings, j The fairest and the best of things, Find mirth still mingled with alloy. Ah! sadnessdwellcth everywhere Upon the earth and in the air, And neath the waves,yes, even then tirief mingles still with joy. Hark! listen! doth my musing, lone And dismal, lift my fancy high? Or whence this sad and sigidng tone Os music ftoatirg by? Now swells it over leaf and bough, Beneath, along the water now, And ah ! how very sad it seems— Mournful as solemn tolling bells, Lchocs of by-gone funeral knells, Like spirits sighing their farewells, or music heard in dreams. And ’tin not fancy, for they tell How long ago was heard the sound ; Jlow here the red men fought and fell, And in the Bay—were drowned. They sav it is a spirit laud Mourning in Pascagoula's sand; The bones of many tribes are there; Their moans left echoes on the waves That roll o'er tlc ir eternal graves, And as the beech the waters lave, .Sail music tills the air. Again! how strange! it cannot bo The night wind, for the night is still, And not a leaf stirs on the tree, Or blade upon the hill; Now deep, now distant, now so near. You start and smile at your own fear, And all so mournful s sells along. The sound it thrills your feelings deep, You long to steal away and weep, You sigh to listen—and to sleep, Lulled by this spirit-song. Not when the tempest whips Ihc waves, Not when the storm-licnd's rage is stirred, But when 'tis silent as the grave, Then is the music heard ; Then, wildly, sweetly, from the lake, The spirit-song is heard to break, \ nd o'er the glassy wave to play; The war-song of the Indian brave Comes from his deep and watery grave, And floats upon the silver wave ()f Pascagoula Bay.

You have deemed it wise nud proper to abandon the great Union Republican party of the country, and to con licet your name and influence with a new organization designed to destroy and defeat, the cause with which I sympathize, and of which 1 am, in some degree, a rep resentative Your public action has been such that I cannot acknowledge your right to use the title, under which the meeting has been called. The nature and character of the trusts confided to you and to me forbid that wo should use them except in accord ance with the spirit in which they were conferred. So deep and wide spread is this feeling in the popular mind, that all woo would respond to your call would be regarded as betraying the party they have ceased to represent. With respect, yours truly, .'IAIICUS I, WARD. Trenton, N. J., Aug. 2s, 1806. Hon. Mi rras Ward, Governor dr., Sir: 1 have just received your favor of the 28th. It is a matter wholly within your own discretion whether you attend the meeting of the National Uniou Execu tive Committee, called in this city for the 3rd of September, or not; hut I am not aware that you ha re the right to overrule the action of the National Union Conven tion by which, in common with yourself, I was made a member of that committee ; or that of the Committee itself, by which 1 was made its chairman and treasurer. 1 need not inform you that meetings of the Committee can only be held under the call of its proper officers, and that action taken at meetings not so called can have no binding authority. My object in call ing the meeting was to afford the Commit tee an opportunity to take such action, in regular form, as in its judgment the condi tion and interests of the Union Party may require. If its members do not choose to attend it, my duty will have been per formed. I am obliged to you for the opinions as to my political course with which you favor me. L trust Ido not underrate their importance, or that of the distinguished source from which they come. I have no desire to controvert or comment upon them, though, as at present advised, 1 certainly prefer my own. 1 hope 1 need not add that [ have no desire to hold any official position in the National Committee of the Union Party, or of any other, against the wish of its mem bers. But l deem it my duty, especially as this :s not merely a matter of personal feeling to insist upon regularity of action tvs the only mode by which that wish can he ascertained. Yours very respectfully, Henry J. Raymond. The Fate of a Fallen Woman. fFrom the PhlluiolpliU Telegraph, Augvut 20.| One of the saddest eases of suieide we have ever been called upon to record was committed on Monday last, by a young lady of this city under circumstances of the most distressing character. It appears there was a picnic at Delta Grove, on the banks ofthe l\aneo:as creek, a short dis tance above Polanco—a place that has re cently become the resort tor rowdies, black legs. and courtesans. Among those, pres ent was a Miss V , residing in the northeastern section ofthe city, whose at tractive countenance, genteel dress, and generally prepossessing appearance, indi cated, that she was not only a stranger to the reckless scenes,of conviviality and dis sipation which are constantly occurring at the place, but that she had been the asso ciate of the educated and refined. And such had been the case. Miss \ , at a late hour in the afternoon, in company with another lady and gentleman, accept ed an invitation to take a short boat trip on the Kaneocas. After proceeding for some distance, and indulging in many pleasant jokes, she arose and said to her companion that she had lived long enough and at once plunged into the creek, never to lie seen alive again. Her remains were found floating near Bridgeboro on the fol lowing day. and were taken to that village. As she was "unknown* the coroner took charge of the body, and had it interred in the poor ground adjoining the Metho dist church of that place. A day or two afterwards, however, her father, who is a gentleman ol considerable wealth and in fluence. laid the body disinterred, and re cognized it as bis lost daughter, allowed it to, again, be interred, in the same spot, in the same pauper pine-box that was charita bly furnished at the public expense for such bodies as are unclaimed. The histo ry of the young girl is indeed a sad one She was a beautiful girl, and well educa ted, naturally vivacious and joyful, but she was enticed ♦rom her home, and her future career is briflv told. Abandoned fu ller parents, despised by her relatives, shun ned by her to mier friends and ac piintanc -. deprived of her once happy and comforta ble home, and denied the counsel and assist ance necessary to cheer and attract her from the wrong path, is it any wonder she led a brief life of shame and found a har lot’s grave? Philadelphia Ashamed of Herself And Makes an Apology. Philadelphia. August 28. — In regard to the cause of the informality attending the President s visit to this city yesterday, the Xorth American of to-lav says : It is a note-worthy fact that of the twenty-six members of the Common Council, and the twenty-seven members of the Select Coun cil less than twenty a re'at preseut in the city, and of these a considerable majority are Democrats. The Mayor is taking the only rest that he can enjoy for a year to conte, so that the absence of any munici pal participation in yesterday's ceremonies was utterly unavoidable. FOREIGN nEWS. The Annexation Measitre-oCouiit Bis marck’s Itea.arl. s.—Military Fetes. In Berlin a royal message upon the in corporation of Hanover, Electoral Hesse, Nassau and Frankfort into the Prussian tcritory was laid before the Prussian Chamber of Deputies on the 17th of Au gust. The preamble to the bill says: Prussia did not embark into war with the intention of acquiring territory. The hos tile attitude of these States lias requested that their independence should cease. It is hoped that in the course of time the in habitants of the annexed countries will be thoroughly satisfied with their incor poration. In bringing in the bill Count Bismarck expressed the hope that the Diet would leave the details of accomplishment in the hands of the King, who would act with the necessary consideration. Further commu nication with regard to Schleswig Holstein would he made after the conclusion of peace. The King of Prussia, on the 17th of August, received the Hanoverian deputa tion, which solicted the annexation of Hanover to Prussia as soon as possible. The Schleswig-Holstein government had received orders to prepare for the election of representatives to the German Parliament. A grand fete had taken place in Berlin honor of Bismarck and Generals Von Boon and Moitkc. A split, it was reported, was about to take place in the progress party at Berlin in. \apole u‘s Friendly Assurance to the King. The King of the Belgians had received ari autograph letter from Napoleon of a verv re-assuring eharacrer. The Emperor declares he has no inten tion of annexing any part of Belgium. On the contrary, he would prefer to promote on every occasion the interests of the Bel gian dynasty. j The Liege Journal says : A correspond- I ent in Paris writes us that the Emperor, is desirous of putting a stop to the propa gation of plans, and projects attributed to him by some journals, and has ordered the French Ambassador at London to declare spontaneously and officially to the British government that he never intended to take an inch of Belgian territory. France* The Emperor Napoleon’s fete day on the 15th of August was very brilliant, but was marred by a sad accident. After the : fireworks a crush occurred at the Porte de j la Concorde, in whicn nine persons were killed and fifty injured. The day was as i usual marked by a large number of par dons and commutations of the sentences of military and other offenders, and also by honors conferred, including that of the Grand Cross of the Legion of Honor upon the I Liu de Grammont, the French Am bassador at Venetia, and that ofChevalier upon M. Galignani, the director of Galig naiti s Messenger. The Chalons’ camp was broken up on the 16th of August. Prince Napoleon and General Menabrea had arrived at Paris from Italy. The weekly returns of the Bank of France show a further increase of cash of over 5,000,000 francs. Austrian Interests in live Tyrol. The Austrian Gazette believes in peace negotiations with Italy. Austria, in order to protect the Tyrol, must, demand the con tinued possession of Wonuserjack, the Tonale Pass, llocca, Daufe, a portion of Chunsa, together with Primalora and Enago, the Clial up to the valley of Dei Signori, and to the right from Asticonfora to San Pietro. The Austrian papers emphatically deny that after the withdrawal of the Italian troops from the Trent District the Aus trians wreaked vengeance on the inhabi ' tants. A few isolated arrests only took I place for treason in due legal course. On ; the contrary, it is asserted that parties compromised in the district were being sent to Italian territory.

We attended a meeting in Greenville, Ga., last Wednesday ana heard several able and patriotic addresses upon the subject of Relief. Rev. J. Blakeley Smith was called to the Chair, and J udge W. B. Adams elected Secretary. A committee was appointed to draft resolutions, but we left for home before they reported. The Hon. Hugh Buchanan, member elect to Congress from that District, ad dressed the people at some length, lie recommended that, the next Legislature extend the Stay Law until 1870, which would give the people time to pay a portion of their indebtedness. He thought the Supreme Court would hold that it was Constitutional —and said that lie knew Joseph Henry Lumpkin well, and that he had a big heart, full of mercy and would do all in his power to relieve the people. That it was impossible to have one-fourth ofthe present debt in the coun try liquidated next January. The plan ters had acted in good faith, had made an honest effort and the crop had failed, and they were now in a worse condition than twelve months ago. The cotton then on hand had been sold, tig? money consumed, and the present crop was inadequate to feed and clothe the people. He advised the creditor to forbear —that the debtors of the State were honest men and would make every effort to pay, and that they should have time. He believed it wtjs to the in terest ofthe creditor to wait forhis money, and illustrated it by saying that M owed $15,000, and his land was worth SIO,OOO : he owes A SI,OOO. B $5,000, C 3,000 : D, E and F the balance —A, has the oldest execution and has tjje land put up for sale; ho bids SI,OOO, B. C and D cannot bid, they have no money. They lose all. and the land is sacrificed. He said that if the collection of debts were enforced that otic man would own nearly the whole county of Coweta. Air. Stewart, a member of the Legisla ture from Spalding, next addressed the meeting, and thought that Stay Laws could no do good. The country was hope lessly in debt and could never pay out It was impossible and it was useless to try and make men do what it was not in the power of man to do. He thought a Homstead Bill could do no good, as it would be an >■( post facta law and void. A Bankrupt Law would have to be passed by Congress. They might pass such a law or might not We could not depend upon help from that quarter. We were in trouble—present relief was necessary —the Governor was opposed to the Stay law, and the Legislature had its hands tied, to an extent. He was the author of the present Stay Law. and would vote for it from year to year, but could not vote to extend it long.— Middle Georgia Actrs. Delegates to the “Loyal’’ Convention.

A young woman was busily engaged, the other day. in looking over some mourning goods.

Cotton-picking is the regular plantation ; work for the month. It should tie gather ed as fast as it opens, for this is the way to secure it in good condition. "If it stands, Dr. Cloud justly remarks, “many days after opening in the boll, exposed to the dews of night, and the brignt shining of our autumnal days, it undergoes a bleach ing process, which imparts to the staple a dead white color, with a crisp harsh touch, and destroys its peculiar native or creamy hue. ’' Avoid collecting with leaf and trash of all kinds. Every lock of lint should be saved now. as the “gTeat staple” must be scarce and dear for a long time to come, and it should be the ambition of all • plan ters to send their crops to market in the best possible condition. Do not be hum bugged with “cotton pickers,” but press every hand on the plantation into the work, and save your c-otion for the present in the good old way, and spend what money you can spare in better plows, sweeps, gins, and other labor-saving plantation implements and machinery, that you know will benefit you. To quote again from Dr. Cloud, “hands should not be allowed to pull the bolls from the limbs in picking—while it retards the picking i? is quite an injury to the growing stalk during, the month of September. The productiveness of the cotton plant is frequently injured by early picking by the carelessness of hands in bending over it and pressing the limbs together by which they are broken and otherwise mangled ; these injuries are irreparable by the plant thus late in the season and the consequent loss is frequently considerable.” Make your biles all square and uniform and keep the qualities of cotton separate. Dealers and manufacturers all require bales of uniform quality, and the price of mixed cotton is generally as low as the poorest cotton put in the bale. Choice and valuable varieties of cotton seed must be selected and carefully saved, so that we may be ready to go on successfully in the culture of this indispensable crop hereafter. Let .all who have superior cotton seed, either Sea Island or Upland, advertise it widely, in time for the next crop. Sorghum and Imphe.e, should be cut, ground and made up into good thick syrup as fast as the cane matures. .Too much care cannot be taken with the filtra tion of the juice and clarification of the syrup, if vou desire a good merchantable article. The blades of' sorphum must, of course, be saved for fodder, and tho seed preserved for stock feeding. Coxo Peas must be gathered and stored away in a dry place—giving particular at tention to the saving of choice sorts for the next year’s seed. Pea-vine hay should al so be made, and stacked away, as hereto fore directed. Corn in the drill, Millet and other summer forage crops, may now be cut, cured and preserved for future use. Grass, such as “Crowfoot,” “Crab,” (or “Crop,”) etc., must be cut when in full bloom, and cured with as little exposure to the sun as possible. The old negro style, of waiting ’till “first frost,” and then pulling up a lot of dead, dr}-, sapless grass, and calling that “hay, must be stopped. It is not in accordance with the “progress of the age. ’ ’ The corn and forage crops will be so short in all the States east of the Mississippi that every provision possible should he made for economizing them. Turnips will prove most valuable for feeding stock of all kinds. Milch cows, sheep, (and it is said horses, if fed iu mod erate quantities with other food,) all thrive upon them. Boiled and the slop thickened while hot with corn meal, they are excel lent for swine. Sow this crop during this month, at all favorable seasons, and it will be advisable to put in a large crop for stock feeding in winter. It is, generally, best to sow just before a rain, or when the ground is dry, working the ground thor oughly, and not sowing until it has been allowed to dry, for if sowed in soil just moist enough to sprout the seed the sun often kills it, but in perfectly dry ground the seed will keep without sprouting until it rains—-covering the seed lightly and pressing the eartli upon it with a roller or plank. YVc almost invaribly sow 100 much seed, and cover too deep; but whenever, from any cause, we fail to get a good and satisfactory “stand,” the seedsmen (or vender of seed) has to “suffer.” It is not necessary to drop a continuous line of tur nip seed in the drill, especially when the more valuable varieties are rare and diffi cult to procure. Two or three seeds, dropped every four (4) inches in the drill, will give you a good “stand,” and save a great deal of seed and thinning out. Rye for winter pasture, must be sown very largely , the middle or last of this month. Y'ou cannot make the ground too deep or rich ; and the same may be said even more forcibly of Barley, which on strong, rich soils, il superior to rye. . Sow early, use plenty of seed, and put in as great a breadth of land as possible, in these two crops. On loose, sandy soils rye may be scattered among tlie cotton the latter part of the month, and the winter treading of stock, which on heavy soils is injurious, is a benefit to these light lands, but omtlie richer soils more food is produced. Sow plenty of the Winter or Egyptian Oats the last of the' month for pasturage. In ordinary winters these three crops af ford an invaluable aid in keeping stock in good condition. California Clover may still he sown, the earlier the better. The same is true of the Crimson Clover, (Trifolium incoruatum,) a forage plant of which wo Lave great hopes for winter and early spring. Procure now, seed of the Red Clover to sow either by itself or in your wheat the last of this month. Any clear soil that will bring good wheat will bring good clover, but the crop is vastly increased by sowing upon it broad cast one bushel of gypsum per acre ; any seedsman can supply seed, and we prefer our readers should get it di rect.

We published in the January number, a contribution from a valued correspondent signed “ A Northern Man.” The purport of it was advising our people to do as the writer was doing ; let cotton pretty much alone; raise grain and stock ; cultivate less land, and provide about their homes every thing to make them more comfortable aim attractive. YVe thought it a good article, containing somethings we did not agree to, but on the whole, full of sound advice ; and as we were not then in the habit of sending the articles received from our contributors on to the New York Times for its approval, why, we just published it. The conse quence was, the Times toric both us and our contributor in hand, called us hard names, and was quite disposed to have the Cultivator suppressed as a “secesh” sheet, and our excellent old friend sent out of the country. Well, we were both astonished, yet both editor and contributor survived, and after this season’s experience in crop ping and congr issional interference, retain about our old opinions, and if there was anything in the world to. make us think we were mistaken, it is neither the present prospects of those who staked all on cot ton growing, nor the following statement from one of our subscribers, which is a plain narration of facts. We would like to hear of the cotton-grower who, with no more means, has done as well. The land cultivated would be considered poor. Speak ing of the locality of the writer, our friend M. observed to us a day or two since, “This country above us, trading with Athens, i« bound to be ultimately the most prosperous section ot the South. ’ ’ ‘Why?’ ’ said we. “Because it is about the poorest part of it, and the people will be obliged to work to get along at all, and this habit of industry is bound to bring them to pros perity.” Poor as the land is, there seems to be no difficulty to make a good living off it. We think the new agricultural editor of the Times, who we take it is a man of good sense, will think it pretty fair farming for us “poor whites.” The Tribune would doubtless insist that a sick negro would have done bettor. AN INVALID S FARMING OPERATIONS. Editor Southern CultiyatoA: —At the close of the war, being almost pros trated with chronic disease of the chest with an invalid wife and a family to sup port, and not a dollar in anything availa ble. nothing in the shape of money except a few hundred in “confederate.” I was at a loss to know how I would be able “to make both ends meet.” A’arious schemes of making a living presented themselves to my mind, but my health was too much im paired to undertake any of them. Making a virtue of necessity. I concluded to stay on my farm, consisting of about three hundred acres of third qu dity land; about forty acres of which had been in cultiva tion, barely yielding its former occupant a support. I hired a black man regularly last year, and paid him out of the crop : hired my corn gathered and husked : bought seed at $2 50 per bushel; hired it sowed and harvested ; have had considera bly more land cleared up, ditched and fenced, a large garden newly and substan tially enclosed, which is now tilled with cabbage, beets, onions, peas, beans, pota toes, parsnips, carrots, okra and tomatoes. I have not been able to do a week s work in eighteen months except the lightest sort of jobs—consequently have had to hire my farm work done, pacing for it, entirely out of the proceeds of the farm '■ | have kept the stock, most of which i had on hand, two horses, nine head of cattle, fifteen sheep, fourteen hogs, and eleven pigs. My “out hogs" have been well ted on corn twice a day and are now good pork . 1 have pigs about seven month-, that 1 have kept up about six months—have fed them twice a day on corn and buttermi . they are now fine porkers, and Mill, i think, make my next year s meat; besides nine hogs eighteen months old ai toiling time, that I expect to fatten for market, i have sold enough bacon to purchase me sugar and coffee. Besides what 1 hac e paid out for work, I have sold twenty bushels of corn for cash, and have now on hand thirty bushels of corn and enougn old bacon to supply my familv until next sum mer. From thirty hens. I have sold about fifty dozen eggs since early in the spring, 1 and we have had as many as we wanteifoor use; have sold enough poultry to buy my wife’s dresses, and have now one hundred nice spring and summer chickens; I have old sweet potatoes as nice as when fresh dug, and the finest prospect fir a crop of sweet and Irish potatoes I ever had'; a fine crop of sugar cane (sorghum), tobacco, Ac., growing. I think I will have at least seventv-five , bushels of wheat and rye, judging from the j yield already threshed. This year I am i having cultivated by freedmen thirty acres in corn and about five acres in oats, the ■ I'fttoj nearly ail cut and shocked, and ■ yielding about one hundred dozen. About i one-half of the corn is now laid by in tine condition, having been plowed and hoed five times each. About one-half of the corn is drilled, with cow neas between the hills of corn, which, I think, will nearly fatten my hogs. 1 have enough leather on hand (home-tanned) to supply my family a year or two ; also the greater portion of my fall and spring wool not yet made up, and enough home-made silk’to supply my family for years. I do myself all the milkiug, and from the same cows that our servant girl formerly milked about a gal- I lon per day, I now milk from three to four ; gallons. I have a cow now that my old milker used to always dry up at the end of ! six months. She is now with a calf almost ! old eno.ugh to give milk and iu fine beef | order, but yield-- more milk now than she j ever did before I took up milking her. I i have thus given you the operations of an ■ invalid farmer, as an evidence that farming i can be made self-sustaining at least. I had for years previous to the war been an attentive reader of the Albany Cultivator . —for years to come I hope to be able to ! welcome the Southern Cultivator to my fireside. Very respectfully, F. S. S. Madison co., Ga., July sth. 1866. YVe copy the following, which refers to : one of our subscribers, from Carrington’s Commissionaire: “I was never on a farm before this year. but. like . always . took an interest ; in farming. “Last year 1 quit my old profession, ami , bought twenty acres negr here. I’ut half j an acre of that into corn. Bought a sulky riding cultivator to ’tend it. It rode so nicely, and the corn grew so finely, that I bought another sulky and six hundred acres more, and between four afnl five thousand dollars’ worth of farm machinery, by which I think my five hands do the work of twenty, and Ram succeeding much better than my wise neighbors, who have been at farming all their lives. They had a great deal to say about ‘ a fool and his money,’ but I don’t Dear anything about that lately. The principal business and work (and hard, bitter work at that,) of farmers here all winter, is keeping them selves in firewood, but the fool with his sawing machine and two horses, in five days sawed and housed all his winter’s wood, and now has nothing to do but to sit by his roaring fire and let the wind howl. The past summer, sitting on his spring-seat rotary spader, under the shade of an umbrella, the fool broxe up his six acres regularly every day, eight inches deep, while his wise neighbors 1 larded the lean earth’ with their perspiration, and then made only two acres, four inches .deep, usually.” A Rf.cipe YVortii One Thousand Dollars.— “ Take one pound of sal soda, ! and a half a pound ol‘ unslacked lime — put it in a gallon of water and boil twenty minutes. Let it stand till cool, then strain off, and put it in a stone jug or jar. Soak your clothes over night, or until they are all wet through—then wring them out, and rub on plenty of soap, and in one boiling of clothes well covered with water, add one teaspoonful of washing fluid. Boil half an hour briskly—then wash them thoroughly through one suds, and rinse with water, and your clothes will look better than the old way of washing twice before boiling. This is an available recipe, and I want every poor tired woman to try it. I think with a patent wash-tub, to do the little rubbing, the wash-woman might take the last novel and compose herself on the lounge, and let the washing do itself. The woman who can keep a secret has known this a year or two, but her husband told it while on an electioneering tour.” So says the Ohio Cultivator. Hollywood Memorial Association. The following reaches us’fromßichmond, with a request for publication from a source that wc are always bound to respect: An executive committee has been ap pointed to arrange preliminaries for a bazaar to be held in Richmond, in February next, for the benefit of the association. The committee held its first meeting, August 15th, at the lecture-room of the Second Presbyterian Church, and the ladies present manifested a zeal for the cause, and a unanimity of purpose that was a sure indication of success. The co-operation of all persons, not only in our own city, but in every county of oiir State, and in every part of the South is earnestly desired. Contributions from each of the Southern States are essential to the success of the scheme, and the names of ladies, who will assist in the un dertaking, may be forwarded to any mem ber of the executive committee, and cir culars with definite plans of action will he furnished them. Editors in all parts of the South are re spectfully requested to extend this notice. Donations from merchants, manufactur ers, farmers, &c,, will be thankfully re ceived, and can be collected through the winter. The ladies are especially appealed to for every variety of domestic supplies, pickles, preserves, butter, &c., and notice will be given of the proper time to furnish these articles. It is very desirable to engage the services of young people and children, as experience lias fully shown how untiring and success ful are their efforts, and how warm their devotion to the object we have at heart, and they are invited to form little societies auxiliary to ours. By concert of action, it is confidently be lieved a sum may be realized worthy of our sacred cause. The Executive Committee will be en larged as the labors increase, and addition al services are required. The organization is as follows: Mrs. Lewis N. YY T cbb, President. Mrs. Lewis, D. Crenshaw, Mrs. James Lyons, Mrs. Dr. Haxall, and Mrs. Robert YY. Ould, Y'ice-Prcsidcnts. Mrs. C. Gennet, Treasurer. Mrs. YVilliam Brown, Secretary. Preparation of an Important State Pa per. Four days before Secretary, Seward’s departure for Chicago with the President was devoted to the preparation of an im portant State paper. "I am not able to assert whether its promulgation will be immediate, or delayed until the return of the Executive trip. There is no doubt that the document in question, which is less than a reiteration of renewal of the demands of this Government for restitu tion at the hands of England for losses of Ametican ship-owners by the Anglo-Con federate pirate, is conceived with unusual elaboration. The Secretary, during the time indi cated, has been almost invisible at the State Department, being continually en grossed in the composition of' the 'above dispatch. _ In length it will be of exces sive wordiness. In conjunction with the spirit of the demand, several clerks of the Department have been preparing a synop tical statement ofthe claims referred to the Government for British liquidation. The lists are full and have been carefully re vise!. While the knowledge that these just debts are again to be pressed upon her Alajesty’s Government, may give undoubt ed satisfaction both to the claimants con cerned ayd the nation generally, it does not seem at all likely that an international row is to ensue on this assertion of international diplomatic “stiff upper lip.” or that our Government will escape the practical _ as sumption of the demand thus urged against a foreign power. This phase of the matter arises from the fact that England has of j late been putting in such enormous claims against the United States for losses of j English subjects in the South by Federal j seizures of property during the war, that 1 the accounts to be rendered by cither Gov- I eminent will nearly offset the other’s in- | debteduess. Herein Secretary _ Seward j recognizes an opportunity for indicating a j degree of courage and stamina for which ; he is generally discredited. — Washington Correspondence X. Y.

A pretty little bachelor To win her favor tried, An l asked her how she'd like to bo His pretty little bride. With some pretty little blushes, And a pretty little sigh, And some pretty little glances From a pretty little eye ; With a pretty little face Behind a pretty fan, Siie smiled on the proposals Os this pretty little man, Some pretty little “loves," And some pretty little “dears,” Some pretty little* smiles. And some pretty little tears ; Some pretty little presents, And a pretty little kiss, Were some pretty little preludes To some pretty little bliss. This pretty little lady And her pretty little spark, Met the pretty little parson And his pietty little clerk ; A pretty little wedding ring United them for life, A pretty little husband And a pretty little wife. Schleswig Upturned to Denmark. The Darjbtad (Daily News.) of Copen hagen, of August TANARUS, in an article on the (lerman Peace, naturally only sees the clause in the stipulation returning North Schleswig to Denmark. This retrocession came quite unexpectedly to Denmark, but is none the less agreeable. The clause in question says: “The districts of Northern Schleswig are to determine their future by the ]J<ci>bite. ’ ' No boundary line being fixed, this journal understands tliis to mean that all the people in Schleswig, who choose to vote themselves Danes, will, by this stipulation, become incorporated with Denmark, especially Northern Schleswig, Sundeved and the Isle of Alsen. The line must be drawn south of Flensburg and in tiic west at Bredsted. The Daghlad furth er argues that this: would be no sacrifice to Prussia, as she will still have accomplished her object, viz: getting access to the sea, and obtaining good ports. This she has attained in the invaluable harbor of Kiel and Eckernforde, and the proposed canal through Holstein will connect those norts with the Bay of Jahde, and the naval es tablishments at Geestemunde and Ernden, taken from Hanover. The Dagblnd is confident that a fair popular vote will re store ail the above territory to Denmark. Oh, Come to Me. Oh, come to me and bring with thee The sunny smiles of former years, if smiles so bright can lend their light To cheer a brow long used to tears. J will not let one sad regret, One gloomy thought our meeting chill, But, for thy sake, will try to make This altered cheek look cheerful still. But if the gloom of life has come If smiles have now forsaken thee, Then let not pride attempt to hide The dreary change, but come to me. If thou art gay, I will not say One mournful word to cause a tear; ; If thou art sad, I’ll wish I had ! A brighter home for one so dear. Then come to me; our theme shall be The friends we love, notthose we mourn; We’ll not destroy our present joy, Lamenting joys that ne’er return. The orient rays of early days, And boyhood’s blooin we may not see; But days of bright and pure delight i May yet be ours; then come to me. The Misses Sedgwick’s BOARDING AND DAY SCHOOL, Corner of Washington and Telfair Sts., ATTGUSTA, ga. THE SCHOOL WILL RE-OPEN OC- B TOBEU 3*l. The Scholastic year will consist of THIRTY-FIVE WEEKS of SESSION and T\, 0 bf vaca tion at Christmas. The Misses SEDGWICK desire to make their School one of superior excellence, and no pains wiil bo spared to accomplish their end. Augusta, from its central position from the well-known and universally acknowledged re linementofits society, presents very superior advantages as a place wherein to establish rrr.cli a SCHOOL, The house secured is LARGE and AIItY, the rooms commo dious and well ventilated, and attached is a large Orna menta 1 Garden, presenting a desirable place for pleasant and healthful exercise. There will be a FRENCH GOVER NESS in the family, of established ability, with whom the j oung ladies will be obliged always to converse in French The Pupils will be under the constant supervision of EX PERIENCED and JIEFINED TEACHERS, and their Moral and Religious training will be carefully attended to. The course of study will embrace all the various English branches and Mathematics, necessary for a thorough and accomplished education, and will include VOCAL and IN STRUMENTAL MUSIC, DRAWING, PAINTING, and the LATIN, GERMAN and FRENCH LANGUAGES, VO CAL MUSIC will be a daily exercise in the School. As the number of Boarding Pupils is limited, preference will be given those who apply to enter the family for the Scholastic year. Circulars containing terms and additional particulars for both Boarding and Day Pupils may be obtained by ad dressing the Principals. Classes will be formed in French, Vccal and Instrumental, Music and Drawing and Painting for those Young Ladies who do not wish to enter the School as day pupils.

Seidried, Pastor of Twelfth Baptist Church, Philadelphia.) Gentlemen: I have recently been laboring under the dis- j tressing effects of indigestion, accompanied by a prostration of the nervous system. Numerous remedies were recommended by friends, and some of them tested, but wit hout relief. Your lloofland’s German Bitters were recommended bv persons who had tried them, and wiiose favorable mention or these Bitters induced me to try them. I must confess that I had an aversion to Patent Medicines from the “thousand and one” quack Bitters whose only aim seems to be to palm off sweetened and drugged liquor upon the community in a sly way, and the ten dency of which, I fear, is to make many a con firmed drunkard. Upon learning that yours was really a medicinal preparation, I took it with happy cff' ct. Its action, not only upon the ri.omach, but upon tin: nervous system, was prompt and grati fying. 1 feel that 1 have derived great and permanent benefit ffrom the use of a few bottles* Very respectfully yours, W.

Having used in my family a number of bottles of your Hoof land's German Bitters. 1 have to say tiiat I regard them as an excellent medicine, specially adapted to remove the diseases they are recommended for. They strengthen and invgorate the system when debilitated, and are useful in disorders of the live r, io." of ai•petite, etc. I have also recommended them to several of my friends, who have tried them, and found them greatly beneficial in the restoration of health.

Augusta Sayings Bank. ITUIIS INSTITUTION HAS BEEN I paying for the past year, fifteen cents on the dollar for the Certificates of Deposit which it issued during the war in exchange fi*r Confederate money. This per contage has been paid on the recommendation of a com. luittce composed of Dr. Joseph Milligan, Josiah Sibley, Esq., and IV. J. Owens, Esq., three disinterested citi zens of Augusta, of high character arid position, who ex amined and valued all the assets of the Bank. This val uation did not amount to fifteen per cent, of our circula tion, hut the committee estimated that wo might be able to pay this percentage on the supposition that many of the bills had been lost or destroyed. .Since their exami nation, all tlis exchange, com, bullion, bank bills, bonds, stocks, coupons, cotton and merchandise held by the Bank have been sold. Some of these have proved to he less valuable than the estimate of the committee, and tome more ; but on the whole an advance of nearly twen ty per cent, has been realized ; so that the Bank will he able to pay eighteen cents in the dollar for its change hills, unless the number destroyed shall he found to be smaller than vyas anticipated. No larger per centage than this can be paid hereafter, us we have nothing now to ap preciate. We have recently investigated the amount received by the Bank for its certificate*, counting the Confedcxate money at its value when received, and find that R v s less than eighteen cents in the dollar; so that this B will pay hereafter not only to its depositors, but to its hi holders, the full amount it received.
