Tin fol lowing article from tho Charleston Con iVr, u paper which was much less anxious lo enter upon the sea ol war than its ,co temporary, the Mercvnj. when the long sown wills of the rebellion Hist begun to sprout in that hot-bed of treason, shows tlie depth ol the misery brought upon the Southern States: Thi' continuance of thin content Involves puffi-rimr. Tim evils that follow In the train ol this calamitous visitation, urnw more direful with every day. Other hem Is than those now iiehiug wih anxiety mid bleeiliiit' from bereavement nro nut wiih grief, nnd the friend who rynipnlhizeil with snme nlllcted ono yestejy, to day wnw bitter teiiM over Iiih own sorrows. The iron is driven the deeper, mid our burdeiw beeomu innre mid more heavy. And thoiiiih more than eighteen umilis have passed away since the strife was begun, the end seems more distant than it appeared to be ii twelve-month' since. Hope after hope has gonu out in darkness, and expee tations we had fondly cherished have turned out to be miserable delusions. So oficu Imvo we been disappointed, that now our faith rejects every promise and turns away from every sign. Our foe is us active and determineil anil powerful n ever he was. and the agent I lint wn to compel fnreiirn tuition to intervene mul put an end to this wicked mul infamous contest, has not been potent enough to accomplish that end. We stand alone. Vast hosts ore mus tering to repent with n stronger force nnd with moru obstinate courage 1 lie attempts that have been made mid strong hold' hitherto uuattacked will soon have to bear the most furious onslaughts the enemy, with his wonderful resouicip of ingenuity and material, is capable of making. To fiustrate his welleonceivid plans, to repel then' terrible attacks, we have to deiirnil entirelv upon ourselves. The foe will do his utmost ; military genius and knowledge, the boundless credit of ihe Government, the best inecluinicnl skill mind, money, muscle have nil combined to ensure success. And while tin so tro mentions eflnris aro being put forth while our home is darkened by the shadow of ihe death angel's wing, iwid'our bosom's wruni: witli nnuuish while we lire enduring hard-hips, nnd our soldiers almost nuked we Ktiiud alone. A Rahy Fouxi) on a Uatti.k FiKt.n The following is nn extract of n private letter from n soldier in the Fourteenth Illi nois. It is dated Ilolivar, November 10 : Jt me relate to you n touching little incident, that will doubtless strike yon as a littlo si range. At the battle of the Hatcliie, when tho conflict wns waging fiercest, upon ndvnneing, midwuy between the contending forces, wc found n sweet little blue-eyed baby, littlo thing, as I saw it there, hugging the cold earth, its only bed the tear on its little cheek That nature bndo it weep, turned An ico drop sparkling in tho morning beam unalarmed 'mid the awful confusion of that fearful bnttle, with the mipsiles of death lying thick about It, nnd crowding close upon its young existence yet unhurt, it seemed, as it lay in its nilrucnlous safety, to say to me : " My helplessm-ps und inno cence ajipcn'cd to God, and be preserved s:UKX-itvniff i '.m.'sc mmatncacj me in the midst of this wrecking carnage. tl you will make your plaint to heaven. God will preserve your poor bleeding; coun try." Who would suppose that, in tho wild, fierce battle of the llnlchic. where the field was strewn with the dead, mid tho shruks of the wounded nut the henveint with agony, u un-ut army would pause in the thickest or the the conflict to save harm less a helpless child ? Yet the brave Four teenth, that never yet hus quailed in battle, tlid pause, and nn officer of our regiment nitlered " our little baby" carried to head quarters and tenderly cared for. The next day after the bnttle"our babe" was brought berore the Fourteenth nnd ttimnlinoii-dy adopted ' child of the regiment.

I fhw the mother receive her child, heard her brief piayer for the soldiers who saved it, mid. with the blissings of u thousand men fol lowing her and hers, went her way rejoic- A correspondent of Htirpcr' Drawer relates the following of one of the chosen, wliiwininisliv led him into the wilds of Oregon : "The following T send you Hint vr.n may know some of the trials to which voting minisleis nre subjected in the min ing region of Oregon : " Wo have never h.'cn highly celebrated for our great piety ; indeed, giving but poor pay, we. can ex licet but n ' poor preach ;' h-'sltles, we are d.void of those great inecnlivin to civili an!

The Louisville Journal refers to the in "tilling demands of the Cnnledorntcs on tho United Suites Government, nnd speaks of Gen. McNeil thus : " Aliliiiinili wo do not nnnrovo the eon- duet of Pol.

Putnam, of Uoxbnry, writes home from Knrope to Ihe Hoximry Journal, that ho finds by observation the " masses of tho peoplo " In Kurnpean countries, when lelt be-' to form their own opinions, are for the North, while the " powerful Government und ruling classes " are against us. Thii is undoubtedly true. The common people of Knrope sympathise with the institutions) of the North. In Kughind. till the organs of the common classes, from Ihe W si min ster llcvmo down to the London Daily AVtr, tiro outspoken in favor of the North. Hut the niistnrrney of Knglnndund Franc . und elisewhere. yenrn for the success nf tin iirlMo-mcy of the South. The Southern s'aveho'd.-r. with his thousand chattels, meets on familiar terms with the Kuroncnii lord. They are liinU of n feather ; both despise democratic institutions, and hnto the " inuihsills " of society, nnd think it very pernicious to nllow u working man to vole. Slidell. the rlioice ivpresentntivo of our slnvcholding class, disports mn.:( ele gantly in the snloons of Ihe French aris tocracy, and they nil ngree Hint the North ern people nro very vulgar, nnd that the Secesh ought to triumph.

A correspon dent of the New Voik World, writing lately from this place, thus speaks of tho lowii mid in inhabitants : Lagrange has lnrii in former times u sort ol Athens of Tennessee und Northern Mississippi.

It lias its share of tho old-fashion tumble-down structures, several or which have been converted into quartan for tho contraband-', who flock into one lines in great numbers. There nre severnl creditable utteinpls ut tasteful grounds, though the (fleet is generally marred by some outre or vulgar association. Tho town lots are large, and the site is really el igible for n beautiful city. Hut few of thu inhabitants remain, most nf the able bodied men having long ugo been drawn into tho rebel army. Ilaggmil looking widows and scornful looking maidens, dressed up in nil the odds nnd ewls of a rng bag, with gait ers long worn down, two nil of feuicuiivi gentility which meet tho eye. Groceries, dry goods, nnd even corn meal, nre scarce. Sutlers could do it grand bminrM if it wero allowed. Permits must be obtained of thu Provost Marshal for small articles, nnd nothing is allowed to bo sold to citizem except for family consumption. . . Old Dr. Strong, ol Hmtford, had an tin fortunate habit of sometimes paying funny thing when he meant to be particularly t-oleuiii ; us when he was pnsidjng at ii meeting of ministers, and wishing to call on one of them to comu forward mid ofler n prayer, ho said : ' llrolher Colton, Of Uolton, Will you step this way And pray!" To which Mr. Uidlon immediately o ftwered, without intending to pirpetrut? anything of the same sort : " My dear brother Strong, "i on do very wrong. To bj making a rhyme At nuch a solemn rime." And then Dr. Strong added ; ' I'm very torry lo ma That you aro juet like mc." Tho good men would not, for the wpr.ld, hwo made such je6ts on such un occasion, ; but they could plead the same excuso for their rhymes that the, boy tlid for whistling in school : " I didn't wiiistlo, sir ; It lvbto Ue4 itself!"
