It will not bo long .until cool weathor,. when woolen, socks will bo in grout demand. In fitot, unless ibo supply lo largor than usual,^our bravo Boldiora will . su flor. This bauld not bsc. Thou lot mothers, wivoH, sisters and sweethearts knit socks for those in service. They will do it gratuitously und well I The Palmetto Boys. It ?8 a source of gratification to us to hear, from timo to timo, of tho success und bravery of. tho voluntoers from our section. The Pal metto boys, whorovor situate in tho South, when over their services wero needed, responded promptly to the call, and have, in several in stances, distinguished themselves.

It is manly and bravo to peri I all on tho bal tloflcld for liberty and independence.

Tho voluntoor corps of the District are con posed of ull classes, though mun y of tho mc are poor. There is another class in our mid. who either cannot or will not volunteer. Man of those aro aged and patriotic, nud would I gratified to find an opportunity to aid tho onus How ? By contributing their menus liberal for tho support of thc families of destitute vi untoors. Wo have plenty of soldiers but tl rolicf fund is small. Thero is wealth in tl District, and this is tho time it should bo fort coining. Sufficient lins not, in our hum'u opinion, yet been done.

IL ItussKEt., us tts special correspondent, to obtain correct information in regard to tho lovolution in tho South. Writing from Charleston, Mr. ll. says : . CUARLKSTON, S. Ci, April ,10. -?. Kolbing 1 could say eau bo worth ono fact whico L..s forced Itself Upon my mind in reference to the sentiments which prevail muong tho gentlemen of this Stale. I have bo/m among thom for several day?, l.hiive visited their-plantations. 1 have conversed with them fully and freely. I have enjoyed that trank, OOUrfeoua and graceful intercourse which consti tutes an irresistible charm of their society. From all quarters lins como to my cars thc echoes of thc Hame voice ; it ?tay bc feigned, but there is no discord in tho note, and it sounds in wonderful strength and monotony all over tho country. '* Shades of George Ul, of North, of Johnson, of all who contended against thc great rebellion which torc these colonies from Kugland, can you bear tho chorus which rings through tho State of Marion, Sumler, and Pinckncy. and .not clop your ghostly hands in triumph? That voico says: "If wo could only gel of Hie Hoy til race ol' Kngbind .to rule over us, wc should bc .coulent." bet lhere bo no misconception of this point. That senti ment, varied in iv hundred ways, has been re peated to mo over and over again, ..Thcrotsa general admission that thc means to suoli nn end arc wanting, and thai tho desire cannot bo gratified. Hut thc admiration tor mo narchical institutions on thc Pmglisli model, for privilcdged classes, and tor a lauded aristocracy and gentry, is undisguised and apparently genu ino. With the pride of having achieved their in-1 dependence hs mingled in lite South Carolinians' hearts a strange regret at tho result and con. o qucnees, and many ur? they who "would go back to-inorrotv, if wc cou! .." ?* An intense nfl'oot on for tho British connec tion, a love of British habits and customs, a res pect for British sentiment, law, authority, order, civilization mid literature, pro-eminently distin guish "he inhabitants ol this Stale, wdio, glorying in their descent from ancient families on ibo three islands, whose fortunes they still follow, and with whoso members they maintain not iiufrcqucntly familiar relations, regarded with nu aversion, ol' which it is impossible to give an idea lo one who has not seen ils manifestation, thc people of New F.ngland and the Northern Stales, whom they re gard as tainted beyond cure by the venom ol "Pu ritanism." " Whatever moy be tho cause, this ls the fact and the effect : "Thc Stale of South Carolina, was," I am lold, "founded by gentlemen." ll was not established by witchhnrning Buril ans. by cruel persecuting fanatics, who implanted in the North thc standard of Torquemada, and breathed into thc nostrils of their newly-born colonies ail thc ferocity, bloodthirstiness and rabid intolerance of thc Inquisition, lt is absolutely astounding to a ?tranger who aims at the pr?servai ion of a decent neutrality to mark tho violence of these opinions." We presume it is unnecessary tor us to deny theso Statements. There nro net. perhaps, filly persons in ?South Carolina holding the sen timents attributed to hor people. CONSKQUEN'CKS or TUB WAR,-An able edito rial in tho Baltimore Exchange,of Monday last, on tho respectivo abilities of the two sections to carry on tho war, successfully, concludes as follows : " Whichever way we tegard ii, 'ho con?c-I quencos aro thc same-partially injurious to tho South : but disastrous to tho North. Thc South loses little ; it spends comparatively little, and is piling its wealth up. Tho North loses every thing, spends enormously, and stores scarcely anything. Every dny adds; in fact, to thc strength of tho South, mid diminishes that, nf the North. Tho war tells alike on tho Western fanner, tho Kastern manufacturer, and tho New York banker. Thc effect upon the former, how ovor, is only temporary ; upon tho two latter it must lie more permanent. The eventual result of tho wtr will surely bo to unite tho slave Stoic* in ono grund Republic, and tho North will thou find that its suicidal policy has only served to establish n nation, Which possesses not only vast resource? In tho growth of staples peculiar to itself, but which luis, in addition, every clement of wealth possessed by tho IVoe States. Tho North will at tho snmo time dis cover thu' it hus separated itself fruin a country, upon tho production of which it was actually dependent for tho prosperity of its largest in terests, und for tho moans of affording employ ment to tho operativos and occupation of its mariniers. " So long ns Maryland remains with the North she must share tho fate of the North." Guoss OiniiAOK or Tin: LINCOLN OITICIAI.S. Thc Louisville Courier, of Wednesday, the 1 -ttit, says : " A recent outrage in thc Host Ofllcc Department is of such fraudulent character, and ntiucksso di rectly thc interests and legnl rights of thc citizens, that men of all parlies and of all shades of opin ions, loudly denounce lt. Tho case is this: Let tore arrive hero dilily from Southern post ofliccs. pre-paid by tho stamp of tho United States Govern ment. Instead of delivering these letters to whom they ar?' addressed, tho Blank Hepublican Post master General has instructed postmasters to forward them to, tho dead Icttov oftice in Washing ton.

In utter disregard of law and of privnto right.-?, nil such lottern are sent to the'dead lotter ofltco for tho perusal of Black Hepublican officials. Tho object of this atrocious outrage ls plain.
