How a Yankee paper announced Mrs. Beauregard's death.
--The New Orleans Era, the organ of the Yankee military government in that city, announced the death of Mrs. Beauregard in the paragraph copied below. The paper is edited by the Lieut.-Colonel of a Massachusetts regiment, detailed for that duty. No language could do this creature justice:‘ The morning papers announce the death of the wife of G. T. Beauregard. She died at her residence on Esplanade street, on the evening of the 2d inst. This woman has, we learn, been in poor health for the past two or three years, and has required, what has been denied her, the care and attention of the man who gave her his word at the altar to cherish and protect her. He also swore at one time to support the Constitution of the United States. He does not he'd his oaths in very high estimation, as we find him not only plotting for the destruction of his country, but deserting his invalid wife for years together, and leaving her dependent upon others for those acts of kindness and support that should be given by a husband. We know very little of the life and character of the deceased further than that she was an invalid, neglected by her sworn protector, and left by him under the powerful protection of the flag whose glory he is devoting his puny energies to sully.--But when he is called to his account, he will have the mortification of knowing that the lustre of the stars and stripes is all the brighter, and his betrayed country the more powerful, for the treason of himself and co-conspirators.
