Albion (search for this): article 3
abric of the Union will ever be reconstructed in its original form, and more and more likelihood that the progress of disintegration will extend far beyond the present division between the North and South. We observe the rapid destruction of that mighty fabric of prosperity which was so formidable to our colonies, and we look forward, at no distant date, to the day when the credit of the Republic must be hopelessly and utterly destroyed." Such a spectacle fills the mind of sympathizing Albion with unutterable woe. John Bull is chief mourner at the funeral of Jonathan. He wears a more lugubrious visage and a longer crape than any other of the relations. He passes over all the little differences between himself and the lamented deceased in former days; forgets what a rebellious son Jonathan was; how he robbed his father of his family jewels and licked him into the bargain. Let bygones be bygones! The poor fellow is dead now (some villains say from a stab in the back, administer

dminister on the estate. Perhaps they will. "There were three kings unto the East, Three kings faith great and high, And they has sworn a solemn oath, John Barleycorn shall die. They took a plough and ploughed him down, Put clods upon his head, And then they swore another oath, John Barleycorn was dead. But the gentle Sprireat and high, And they has sworn a solemn oath, John Barleycorn shall die.

Hart (search for this): article 4
How quotas are filled in Yankeedom. Brigadier-General G. W. Hinks, of the United States army, in command of recruiting rendezvous, Hart's island, near New York, has recently addressed an interesting letter to the Adjutant-General respecting the recruiting and bounty system. His statements will seem incredible only to those who have not had opportunities of knowing how the Yankee recruiting business has been carried on. The swindle on the Government and people have been unprecedented. General Hinks says: "Felony is compounded and crime condemned by magistrates, that criminals may be sent into the army to stain its fair fame, imperil its success and dishonor its faithful soldiers, or desert its banners to join the enemy, enlist again in some other locality, consummating a double fraud — all to fill the quotas. "Drunkards, useless for any purposes of life, are suborned to defraud the Government and country by enlisting as soldiers — to fill the quotas. "Imbeciles a

jected when they arrive at the general rendezvous; and in many cases the town or county agent, broker, runner, and recruit, combine in the employment of every artifice to conceal the defects and incapacity of the recruit before enlistment; and after the credit has been obtained and the bounty divided, assist him to magnify his disabilities and wrongs, that he may be discharged, and they permitted to use him again — to fill the quotas. "At this post alone, during the quarter ending December 31, 1864, forty-five recruits were discharged upon examination by a "board of inspectors" for utter worthlessness, to wit: seventeen for immaturity, three for old age, seven for chronic diseases, two for deformities, three for hernia, eight for epilepsy, three for asthma, and two for insanity. A large number of others were, for similar causes, evidently unfit for the duties of a soldier in active service, but were retained and sent to their regiments, because it was probable they might be of so

Geary (search for this): article 5
A Sample of Savannah rule. --We find in the New York Commercial the following paragraph, which will show how delightful the Yankee rule in Savannah is becoming: "A Savannah belle stepped off the sidewalk the other day to avoid walking under the American flag, which hung in front of an officer's headquarters. General Geary, military commandant of the city, immediately gave orders to have her promenade back and forth under the hateful symbol for an hour, as a warning for similar offenders."
