great many years ago, and failed to accomplish — to crush out the spirits of liberty from as and to establish a despotic government over us, thus proving themselves tyrants in disposition and sniveling hypocrites in fact. A murder has been committed in this county lately. A man by the name of Praus poisoned his wife, and is now in jail. It is hard to restrain the motordom taking him out and hanging him. I have traveled considerably this spring and summer over South Caroling and Georgia, and found the crops generally very fine, though suffering now in places for rain. The wheat crop has been abundant. Never perhaps was there so copious a turn out in the South. We shall have bread and to spare. The oat crop, too, is good, and if we can only henceforward have good seasons, there will be an abundance of corn made. Providence thus far seems to smile upon us in all our efforts, and we trust that he will continue to do so, and send rain upon the earth, that it may yield us

he example thus set will be widely followed. It will tend to elevate our leaders in the eyes of the people, and counteract much of the odium hitherto attaching to prominent men. The President of Congress, Hon. Howell Cobb, wee see from our Georgia exchanges, has been appointed a Colonel in the Provisional Army, and is raising a regiment in the sixth Congressional District of that State for the war. The Vice President of the Confederate States, Hon. Alex. H. Stevens, possesses too weak a frame to enter into military service; but he is devoting his appended intellectual powers in another and equally important service. T. R. R. Cobb, of Georgia, brother of the President of Congress, is raising a legion to be called "Tom Cobb's Legion." Louis, T. Wigfall, of Texas, has been for several weeks in our city, devoting his time and faculties in a most useful way, and we doubt if he can much longer be kept from a closer observation of the enemy, and a participation in the a

e.demand for four hundred thousand men and four hundred millions of dollars! Fellow Citizens of the Senate And House of Representatives: Having been convened on an extraordinary occasion, as authorized by the Constitution, your attention is not called to any ordinary subject of legislation. At the beginning of the present Presidential term, four months ago, the functions of the Federal Government were found to be generally suspended within the several States of South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Florida, excepting those only of the Post-Office Department. Within these States all the forts, arsenals, dock-yards, custom-houses and the like, including the moveable and stationary property in and about them, had been seized and held in open hostility to this Government; excepting only Forts Pickens, Taylor and Jefferson, on and near the Florida coast, and Fort Sumter in Charleston harbor, South Carolina. The forts thus seized had been put i

Ranaway --On the 4th of July, a negro boy named Jackson, about 30 years old, his front teeth above are out, quick spoken, spare built; of jet black complexion, weighs about 130 pounds. He can read and write very well. He wore off a checked flannel shirt and black hat; had two watches in his pocket. There is no doubt he will try to change his name, as he left his master in Georgia and was gone three years, and passed as a free boy.--A liberal reward will be paid for his apprehension and delivery at this office.

[written for the Richmond Dispatch.]the Virginians of the Valleys. "Sir Jueat."by Dr. Ticenor. The knightliness of the knightly race Who, since the days of old Have kept the lamp of chivalry A light in hearts of gold. The knightliness of the kindly band Who rarely hated case; Who rode with Smith around the land And Raleigh round the seas. Who climbed the blue Virginia hills Amid embattled face, And planted there, in values fair, The Lily and the Whose fragrance live is many lands, Whose beauty ars the earth. And lights the heart as of many homes With loveliness and worth! We thought they slept' The sons who kept The names of noble sires. And slumbered while the darkness crept. Around their vigil-fires! But still the golden horse shoe knights Their Old Dominion keep. Whose fees have found endianted ground, But not a knight asleep. Torch Hill, Georgia.
