ot only lie, but reduce lying to a system and absolutely glory in their shame. And yet nothing is plainer, more self-evident, and undeniable. Because the Yankee lie is not a bungling, palpable lie, thousands swallow it down as a truth; whereas, like all their other inventions, it is ingenious, a perfect counterfeit, the most complete imitation in its minutest details of the genuine currency. A newspaper man who would put in circulation an ordinary lie would be sent at once by Seward to Fort Warren. The habit of lying has become so strong with them that they cannot even describe natural scenery without the aid of fiction.

The people of the Confederacy should always keep this truth before them when reading paragraphs from Yankee newspapers. The "Arabian Nights Entertainments" and "Gulliver's Travels" are verac

His reply was, "No ! they have me in their power — let them do their worst !" or words to that effects and so they all left home and families. Let me add one word here in regard to the Rev. Dr. Pinckney, whom the Episcopal clergy nominated a year or so ago to the laity for their Bishop Dr. P. was incarcerated within one month after that in Fort Warren, and was still confined in prison as late as July last, and the writer believes that he is a prisoner yet. This is pretty good evidence, the writer thinks, of Dr. Pinckney's Southern sentiments, notwithstanding the laity at the time could not be convinced of the fact. This is not said with the intention of seeming to give place to a regret — for the writer is sure that the Episcopal Church has been singularly blessed in its of a Bishop — but by way of validating a noble clergyman of Ma<

With three small children she was forced from her home, and when she arrived at Harper's Ferry it was with great difficulty that she could obtain permission for her nurse to accompany her.
