Death to Monopolies !!
ALL POSTMASTERS, PREACHERS,
AND EDI iOKS OUR AGENTS.
That Army of Northern Vir-
ginia.—The following extract from
the address of General Chamberlain,
of Maine at a meeting of officers and
soldiers of the Army of the Potomac,
at Steinway Hall, New York, on the
5th inst., will be read with great in-
terest,
That Army of Northern Virginia,
who can help looking back upon
them now with feelings half fraternal!
Ragged and reckless, yet careful to
keep their bayonets bright and lines
of battle well dressed; reduced to
dire extremities sometimes, yet always
ready for a fight; rough and rude,
but knowing well how to make a
field illustrious. Who can forget
them, the brave, bronzed faces that
looked at us for four years across the
flaming pitmen whom in a hundred
fierce grapples we fought with re-
morseless desperation and all the ter-
rible enginery of death, till on the
one side and the other a quarter of
a million fell; and yet we never
hated them except that they struck at
at the old flag.
His coffiin was-made of a ballot-box,
With white men’s votes we bound
him,
And he looked like a baboon taking his
rest,
With his linen duster around him.
Chinese Treatment of WOMEN.
—One-ofthe greatest failings in the
character of the Chinese is want of
respect for woman ; and the main de-
fect in their unique and wonderful
civilization, and, indeed, the chief
hindrance to their progress to a more
enlightened life, is the want of her
influence in shaping and controlling
the sentiments and customs of Chi-
nese society. She has no social po-
sition or influence. Her condition is
but one step above that of a slave.—
She is regarded, as she is in fact, as
a tool for man’s pleasure or conveni-
ence, and as greatly inferior to him
in all respects. She is not cultiva-
ted, in our sense of the term. Her
face is utterly blank of intelligence
and refinement. Very rarely, in-
deed, is that chaste and delicate feel-
ing, and tender, and thoughtful sen-
timent, which is the crowning glory
of the Christianized women, especial-
ly in America, seen sleeping in her
features, or flashing from her eyes, or
sparkling from her lips; but the
whole contour and expression of her
face is painfully stolid and repulsive,
and has in it more of the type of the
animal than the angel.
Professional Ethics.—A few
weeks ago the papers contained an
account of a prize fight between a
couple of men in the town of Covert,
which resulted in the death of one
of the parties—McGraw—and es-
. cape of the other—Donelly. A few
days after the death of McGraw,
while the officers were seeking Don-
nelly, word was received by Dr.
Wheeler; of Farmer Village, from
that individual, requesting his im-
mediate attendance upon him, as he
had fallen from a rocky height, and
injured himself severely. The doc-
tor returned an answer to the effect
that he would render his assitance
provided Donelly would give himself
up to the proper authorities, which,
upon due consideration and the ne-
cessities of the case, he agreed to
do. Donnelly was taken to Farmer
Village, where Dr. Wheeler, after an
examination, discovered that Don-
nelly’s leg had been fractured in
such a manner, and neglected so long
as to render amputation necessary,
which operation was performed, but
the man had become so weakened
from exposure that he sank under
the treatment and died.
“Darnel Webster, remarked old
Colonel Gumpey as he trimmed a
quid of nigger-hcad, and fastened it
securely between two decayed teeth
in the left side of his’ mouth, 11 Dar-
nel Webster was a great man. There
wasn’t nothing mean about him. I
have hearn him talk, but it wasn’t
his talk so much as his generosity
that tuck me. He had a kinder care-
less way like, that kep him from get-
ting rich. He never seemed to think
what things cost. I was a cornin’ up
the Hudson river along with him
once, and in the mornin’ me and
Darnel Webster was washing our
faces and slickin our har in the cabin
and he took out a tooth brush and
brushed his teeth. I didn’t see no
other tooth brush around, so I bor-
rowed his’n. An’ after I had used
it I handed it back to him, and what
do you think ? Why Darnel Web-
ster just slung that tooth brush inter
the river, and I ‘spose, next day, he
went and bought another one. That’s
all he cared about money! There
ain’t no sech men as Darnel Webster
livin now,” concluded the Colonel,
meditatively, as he spirted a stream
of tobacco juice into the fireplace at
the other end of the room.

Good for Old Virginia.—The 1
election of Walker, Governor of Vir-
■ ginia, has been a sore blow for Rad-
ical thieves. From all parts of the
State « kind words ” for carpet-bag-
gers and scalawaggers come sponta-
neous. The following few lines from
the Fredericksbusg News being sam-
ples of affection we delight in see-
ing:
BURIAL SONG OF THE CARPET-BAGGER.
Not a drum was heard nor a funeral
note
EAAs his corpse to oblivion we hurried,
Not a groan escaped a gentleman’s
throat
When the carpet-bagger was buried.
We buried him deep in dirty soil—
So deep that they’ll ne’er uncover
him,
Unless some Radical boring for oil,
By the dearly-loved scent should dis-
cover him.

E plete and impartial analysis of the

of the Confederacy.
To a public that has been surfeited with
apparently similar productions, we prom-
ise a change of fare, both agreeable and
' salutary, and an intellectual treat of the

tial treatment which truth and justice so
urgently demand.
The intense desire everywhere manifest-

ter and ready sale, combined with an in-
creased commission, make it the best sub-
scription book ever published.
