They are not an erring people who acknowledge themselves in fault and are willing to return to their allegiance to the best Government in the world, but a subjugated and conquered populace who hate the powers that subdued them, and detest the Government that has always protected them, and is to-day offering them a clemency that amounts almost to injustice.

Thirty-five thous and men were, at one time eonfined in the stockade. -A Mr- Bassenger testified that when our men asked for bread or water, the response they received was in the shape of leaden bullets. This was corroborated by a Mr. Turrell, of an Ohio regiment. Robert Morton, of this State, had seen Wirz wear clothes which had been sent by the Sanita ry Commission to our men, and this state ment was reaffirmed by a Frank Mattax, a colored soldier. The fatter testified to the whipping of colored men in a beastly manner, and also of hearing Wirz declare that "he gave the Yankees all the land they came to fight for," meaning, of course, a grave. nerThe Atlantic and Great Western 'tail. road carried in the month of July eighty thousand barrels of oil'itotu the oil region to Eastern and Western markets. The Alle gimpy river probably carried over half as much to Pittsburg, and the Philadelphia and Erie railroad as much more.

MORE CRUFILTY.—Judge Carter, who has returned Loin an extensive trip through the South, states that the cruelty to the freed men, and the number of homicides among them, by the whites, are increasing to a fear ful extent, especially in Places where the troops are being withdrawn. '•lt' the Yankees are alarmed at the killing of a few hundred niggers, a day in_ States where they have the itroteetion of Yankee troops to a certain extent, what, will be their alarm after the departure of the 'military forces, and the readmission into the Union of those States as sovereign Powers, who will then have a complete organization of milata ry in each county, which will give the South a standing army that can• bid defiance to the world?" • SVICIDE —Mr. George A.

"RALPH." Sept 6. This quiet village has this evening bin h onored—.uu dishonored—with—a-semi ade from the skeet-iron band. This was in con sequence of the supposed, if not real mar 'riage of a certain young lady. True it is, that custom has sanctioned serenades of this kind on such oecaslons. lam not going to quarrel with custom for sanctioning this; but 1 did feel very much like quarreling with the members of this illustrious bond on this occasion. To say the least of it, it was a very improper performance. I have the follow ing reasons for holding this opinion. Ist. The mother of the lady who was ser enaded has had a severe attack of fever, from which she is recovering, but is now lying in a very weak. and Sensitive state. Any one . with common sense would know that this delightful music would be injurious to any one in this condition. 2nd. The performance was carried to an unusual length, so as to become a nuisance to both Sick 7 and well, and particularly to such as were passing with horses. The persons who engaged in this cannot plead ignorance of this sickness for they were re quested,to stop on this account, but there were too many spirited members in the band to heed this human request, :Where did. these members get their training, or did they ever have any? If they had been prop- erly educated at borne, they would have desisted when they found that any one was lying sick near them; and they would not, underany circumstance have continued annoying the neighborhood fur so long a time. it is certainly no credit to ithis place to.be possessed of such boys. What noble youths they will make! What influential men! Fathers and mothers you must take the blame. Why have you not taught your chil dren to be courteous at least, if not religi• gions?

A pastoral address has been issued by three Bishops of the Methodist Church South, which, while it advises the preachers and members to yield a faithful support to the 3overnmeut of the United States, and to ig nore all past difference of opinion on subjects connected with the war, complains of the at. tempts of the Church North to extend its field of operations over the South, and man ifests considerable hostility to any attempt to secure a formal anima' of the two branch es of this great religious organization. A General Conference of the Church South is to be _held in New Orleans in April next.— It is to be regretted that complete religious reorganizations cannot be effected toStrengt h• en the political reorganization that is now progressing, but the Southern Bishops seem to be too hostile to Northern sermons against slavery, which they deem "political," al though WESLEY truly pronounced slavery the "sum of all villainies," to render a spee dy Union probable. • Without disparagement to the many no ble mothers' who have given their sons to the late glorious contest of saving our coun try, we reprint au instance of revolutionary times taken from a paper of August, 1776: gentleman, who lately travelled through Connecticut met with an old gentlewoman, who told him she had fitted out and sent to Boston five sons and eleven grandsons, when she heard of the engagement between the provincials and regulars. .The gentleman eakod her 'if she did not shed a tear at patt ing with them?, .‘Na(saici she), I never part ed with them with more pleasure.'
