TO THE PEOPLE OP THE SOUTH: ?'The Ladies' Memorial Association for Confedera! Dead of Oakwood," near Richmond, Virginia, was 01 ganized permanently on the 19th of April, 1866, for th purpose of resouingfrom oblivion the names and grave of the gallant Confederate dead who sleep at Oakwooi Cemetery. This cemetery, situated one milo east of the city, con tains sixteen thousand Confederate soldiers' graves-, larger number than any other in the South, includini representative dead from every Southern State. The graves are in a neglected condition, the names o the ociupants marked only by rude pieces of board .arelessly and slightly put In the earth. The ground are desolate and unenclosed. The Common Council o the city o? Richmond has undertaken the work of en closing the oemeiery, and has made the requisite appro prlation for that purpose. The work of'love, gratitude and duty which this AB soclatlon proposes for itself is this : First. To turf eke] grave and mark it with a neat wooden head-board, upoi whioh is to be lnsorlbed the name of the occupant, bli State, regiment and company, and other information li regard to him. Secondly, To lay out and de c?rate the grounds, and to redeem them fron their present condition of utter cheerlesBnesi and desolation, And Thirdly, At some futurt day, when the finances of the Association shall penni it, to replace the wooden heed-boards with endurlnf marble, and to erect a handsome monument for ead State of the South, commemorating its dead. To effect this'purpose, it is necessary.to appeal to the people ol ?he South for pecuniary assistance. The Association ia poor, the people of Richmond are poor, and the work tc be done is for thc honor and credit of the entire South. It would be an indelible shame and an ever-present dis? grace if, having the power to honor our dead, to per? petuate their names and memories, and to preserve and protect their graves, out people should suffer them to ila neglected and forgotten, until the frail record of their names, death and burial plaots are totally destroy? ed by decay, and the task rendered impossible. How many familial throughout the South have representa? tives sleeking at Oakwood Cemetery? How many mothers and sisters, and fathers and brothers, and friends, would be soothed and gratified to know that their brave dead were honored, and their graves cared for and tended? Could the people of the South look upon the lonely, desolate and neglected graves, no appeal would be ne? cessary. The silent rebuke of these forgotten heroes would reach the hearts and consciences of every Chris? tian man and woman of the South. T? Association ls not for a day or a year; it is not the passing fancy of an hour, or the ephemeral creature of a momentary Im? pulse. It ls permanently organized, with already two hundred and Atty active members. It will know no rest until ita purposes are successfully and fully aohieved. In this work of piety and love, the Association solemnly pledge its honor to the people of the South to apply, faithfully and economically, the funds whioh may be contributed.

[SPECIAL TO THE CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS.] NuwnnuT, S. 0., June 19.-A fire was discovered yesterday morning, about three o'olook, in the old Thespian Hall of thia town, whioh has, for some time past, been used as a storehouse for cotton. Before suf? ficient assistance could be obtained, the flames had made too much progress to be easily controlled without an ongine. The wind blew in a southeasterly direction, and was pretty fresh. The nearest buildings were, un? fortunately, wooden ones. The Thespian Hali, a small wooden tenement adjoining, and the old hotel, familiar? ly known as BOOZER'S, all the property of Gen. H. H. KINARI), were completely destroyed. The fire crossed the street from the Thespian Hall to the square front? ing the Court House and the centre of the business por? tion of the town. The large storehouse belonging to Mr. B. DUNCAN (unoccupied), the drug store and dwell? ing of Dr. W. F. PBATT, the large brick storehouse and hall belonging to Mr. Taos. M. PATSINOBB, occu? pied by MARSHALL A BBOTHBB, and RUTLEDGE A BROTHER'S dry goods stores, and Mr. T. L. WHITE, gun and locksmith's shop and pistol gallery, were totally destroyed. The houses next adjaoent, belonging to Mr. SIMEON PRATT and Mr. HAM MET, were somewhat damaged, but saved from destruc? tion. Across the streetfrom this square, on the square of the hotel, the large new brisk storehouse, belonging to Capt. ISAAO.DAYIS, and occupied by B. B. HOLMAN A Co., dry goods, and by W. B. MOKBLLON, dentist; the storehouse and dwelling of A, M. WIOKKB, confectioner, and the storehouse belonging to the estate of Mrs. OROSSAN, occupied by DOVELAOS A WHEELER, dry goods, THOS. P. A R. H. GBENEKUR, Herald printing office, and by the family of the latter; the smaller house, belonging to the same estate, occupied by WARD A BUIST, grocers, were entirely destroyed. The damage to the hotel waa very slight. Aoross the streets running perpendicular to the street whioh soparates the two last mentioned squares, the two squares on either side of the latter streets suffered heavily. On the south the large brick building, lately occupied by Dr. ERWIN, belonging to Capt. ISAAC DAVIS, and used by him as a temporary resi? dence; the wooden building next, belonging to Mr, A. HARRIS, and occupied by Mr. P. S. JACOBS as a store and r?sidence; the wooden buildings belonging to Mr. STUHLE, and occupied by Mr J. MONTGOMERY, jeweller, and Mr. 0. W. MONTGOMERY, grocer, and the resldonce of Dr. R. 8. WHALEY, were all destroyed. On the north of the street, tte residence of Mrs. Dr. THOMPSON; tho office occupied by Dr. DAPKAY, dentist, tho property of E. E. DKWALT; tho building occupied as a bakery by Mr. JOHN NEBBY, tbe property of the estate of H. H. CALDWELL; the hous'B occupied as a store by Mr, WM. BRYCE and-by Mons. GONIN asa store and rosidence.both the property of Mr. STEELE; and the residence of Mr, SUMMERFIELD MONTGOMERY, were also burnt to the ground. - Including outbuildings about twonty-flve houses were destroyed. Tho loss by the fire may be safely estimated at $ 125,000. Messrs. W. F. PBATT and PAYSINGER were insured for $3000 and $6000 respectively in the Home Insurance Company of New York. Messrs. A. M. WICKEB and C. W. MONTGOMERY were each fully insured in the Underwriters' Agency of New York. The stocBB of GEO. D. SMITH it Co., Dry Goods; WRIGHT A COPPOCK, Clothing; 8.'P. BOOZER & Co., Hardware; J NO. W. GBIEBSON, Drugs; Mr. STERN, Dry Goods; JNO. W. MONTGOMEBY, Jeweller; E. J. BAI? LY, Jeweller, were all moved out on the public square, and although the houses they occupied were not burnt, they lost all, more or tess, by the pillaging of the freed? men, who were around in large numbers. The whole amount lost to the Insurance Companies does not ex? ceed $20,000. Most persons believe lt the work of an in cendiary, BY YESSED AY'S MAIL. Ional.

The following facts are gathered from tho papers inclosed: On the 19th of Ooto ber last the North Carolina Convention passed an ordinance prohibiting the payment of all debts con? tracted or lnourred in aid of the late rebellion. In the Legislature of South Carolina, in December, a res'o tlon, reported hy the Committee on Federal Re? lations, was passed Jp the effect that they hud hot at a;l the neosssary lujjfcatlon to enable them to act ad? visedly in relation TofSpudiating the debts incurred in support of the rebeQlon. They called on the Comp? troller General to furnish it, and until it shall bs forth? coming, they could make no definite recommendation upon the subjeot.^The Georgia Convention, in Nov., passed an ordinandpysndeiing null and void all debts crer.Ud for purposes of carrying on the late war against the United States. Tj& Legislature, besides, passed an sot prohibiting, in fij&WwBy, the payment of the moneys. The OonventioirlQIHebama passed an ordinanoe for? bidding the assumption of any part of the rebel debt. The Florida Convention, tn November, declared the debt null and void, Thc Mississippi Convention, in August, repealed the ordinanoe of secession, and the Legislature Sassed a law prohibiting the Treasurer from paying,any ebt until authorized to do so by that body. From the papers in possession of toe State Depart? ment, it does not appear that the Treasurer has been ordered to pay any part of the debt incurred in the late rebellion. The Texas Convention declared the Confederate debt null and void. ' . THE COLONIZATION SCHEME. The President to-day transmitted to the Senate a oom* munica lion from the Aoting Assistant Secretary of the Interior, respecting transactions for the transportation, colonisation and settlement of persons of the African race. The report rs made in response to a resolution of the Senate. It states that a report was made to the President on the 7th of March, 1894, as to how much bad been expended of the appropriation made by Con? gress far colonization purpotes; that up to that date th? rom of 188,930 had been drawn from the Treasury, and ? supplemental statement had been made, bringing the kital to $87,WI. The report says that the act of 1863, wnioh provides for the colonisation of persons of A iri? san descent beyond the limits of the United States, has been repealed, and no measures have since been adopt? ad and no steps taken looking to that result Foreign. The malls received'by the City of Parit and Mama contain the following news, in addition to what we gave yesterday: THE EASTERN WINO 07 THE AUSTBIAN ABUT. A letter from Austrian Silesia says: "Trains loaded arith men and ; ammunition arrive daily at Olmuts ?nd losephstadi The eastern wing of the main Austrian army is posted in Silesia and Eastern GaUicla. It con? nects Cracow with Olmutz, and protects the Northern Ballway. The entire Une extends from .

For ? time' the pTUSBiaU GoveL_ looked quietly on WbllBt hostile preparations were ac lively going forward on the other side of Saxon and Austrian frontiers. This calm attitude of the Govern? ment began to excite the appr?hension of the people. But when the time came for it, forty military trains per day conveyed the PrnsBi? n troops from the most distant provinces of the kingdom to the threatened parts, and these parts are even this day already occupied by an army under whose protection all and every attack may be awaited with perfect calmness, which our enemies, those who have openly declared against us SB well as those who are still hesitating, may make npon our fron? tiers. The railways are found equally efficient for the victualling of large bodies of troops. Our soldiers are quartered in close cantonments, but they are well clad and weU-fed, and receive their pay regularly; they are accordingly in good spirits, and cheerfully confident. BAVABIA BEADY. The Nuremberg Correspondent contains an address of the first Chamber of the Bavarian Parliament to the Bing, which Bays: AB long as it may bo possible under such circum? stances to preserve peace, and above all things to sparo the German peoplo the shame and calamity of a civil war, we shall recognize with gratitude the efforts of your Majesty to that end. But no peace would be endurable if it were to be bought at the cost of honor, of right, of the independence and integrity of Germany. We re? joice, therefore, in having the certain confidence that your Majesty will oppose all negotiations which have for their objeot the cession of even an Inch of territory to the foreigner with all the strength of a brave army and a devoted people. The address concludes by expressing satisfaction at the mobilization of the Bavarian army, and assuring the Eing that the Chamber ls ready to support him In main? taining the rights of Bavaria and of Germany. FRENCH TBOOPS MOVING. Several regiments of Frenoh troops have started to garrison the frontiers of the Alps. Some regiments from Algeria, which, for several months, have been stationed in the south of France, in particular two regi? ments of Chasseurs d'Afrique, have been di spat ohed by rapid marches to the northern frontier. One of these regiments has started from OarcasBone for Maubeuge, AID FOB OABIBALDI. A ladies' committee in London has received the fol? lowing letter from GABIBALDI : DEAS LADIES :-I am deeply gratified by your sym? pathy m the cause of my country, so nobly manifested. If I am fortunate enough to be enabled to pursue that path which will emancipate mankind from the bondage and tyranny of an impostor, it will be by the invulner? able buckler afforded me by the assistance which I ro oeive, and the tupport which I derive, from the boat beloved by God of all His oreatures-woman. I am, with gratitude and affection, yours for life, G. GARIBALDI. The objeot of the committee is to support the views of Garibaldi respecting the union of Italy, and to collect comforts of various kinds for those of his soldiers who may be wounded if war is proclaimed. Several ladies of rank have joined the committee. The Marchioness of Westmeath is the patroness, and Mrs, Chambers, of Portobello House, Fulham, the Prcsidont. If peaco is maintained, the articles which may be collected will bo made up into clothing for the poor of Italy, and will be distributed in accordance with the wishes of Garibaldi. A DISTBESSINO AFFAIB.-We copy the following from the Marion Crescent of the 20th: We are pained to loaru that, on Saturday laat, in the light of day, the dark deed of murder was perpetrated on the person of our esteemed fellow-citizen, Col. Kobt. 0. Emanuel. He was walking with his little son near his residence in the lower part of Marlboro', when four assassins fired their guns upon him, and ended his earthly career in the primo ot a well spent and useful life. He had been most industrious and successful and bsd accumulated more than a comfortable estate. Lo leaves a large lamily to lament an irreparable bereave mant;and this afflictive stroke makes still wider the hiatus left in our community, by the horrors of a four years' desolating war, in which many gallant and worthy citizens were taken from us and from the scenes of Hmo. Col. Emanuel was one of the most energetio and enterprising men in tho State. He grew rich from slender means, by perseverance, industry and good management. Honest, patriotic and hospitable, he was an example to all and beloved by a large number of neighbors, who knew how to appreciate him and will deeply deplore his death. Jeff. Davis' Own Account of His might. Dr. CRAVEN, for som? ttoo surgeon on duty st F?jri Mo nroe, has published a 'DOo?. in. which some wxmn? of the doings and sayings of JBBTOBSOH DAVIS is given. Here is Mr. DAVIS' own account of his flight: ! :'\?'. ?n leaving Bichmond he first went toDanvlllB, be cause it was intended that Lee should have moveVin that direction, falling back to ma* a junction^ Johnston's force in .the direction Sf Boanokelrivefc Grant, however, pressed forward so rapidly, and swung so far around, that Lee was obliged to retreat in the dlrtotion of Lynchburg with bis main force, while his vanguard, which arrived at Danville, insisted on fallina back and. making the rallying point at Charlotte, in North Carolina. In Danville Mr. Davis learned of Lee's surrender. Imm?diate?'started for Goldsbor o', where he mdt and had i consultation with General Johnston, thence going on South. At Lexington he received a dispatch, from Johnston requesting that the Secretary of War (General BreoMnridg'e) should repair to his headquarters near Raleigh-General Sherman having submitted a propo? sition for laying down arms, whioh was too comprehen? sive in its scope for ?any mere military commander to decide upon. Breokinridge ana Postmaster General Reagan immediately started for Johnston's camp, where Sherman submitted the terms of surrender on whioh an armistice was declared-the same terms subsequently disapproved by the authorities at Washington. ! One of the features of the proposition submitted by General Sherman, was a declaration of amnesty to all persons, both civil and military. Notice belog called to the faot particularly, Sherman said, "I mean just that;" and gave as his reason that it was the only way to have perfeot peace, fie had previously offered to furnish a vessel to take away any suoh persons as Mr. Davis might select, to be freighted with whatever personal property they might want to take with them, and to go wherever it pleased. ' * * . * ,. * * * Mr. Davis waited in Charlotte until the day and hour when the armistice ended; then mounted bis horse, sud, with some cavalry of Duke's brigade (formerly Morgan's), again started southward, passing through South Carolina to Washington, in Georgia. At an en? campment on the road, he thinks, the cavalry of his ?Boort probably heard of the final surrender pf General Johnston, though he himself did not until muoh later. Being in the advance, he rode on, supposing that his escort was coming after. He regarded the attempt to capture him as "a breach of faith on the part of those who directed or permitted lt to be done," Inasmuch as he was travelling through a district whioh he regarded as covered by Sherman's ar? mit iee. But he adds, curiously enough, that his plan was "to join the forces of his relative, Lieutenant-Gen? eral Dlek Taylor, after crossing the Ohattahoochle. He would then cross the Mississippi, joining Taylor's forces to those of Kirby Smith-of whom he spoke with marked acerbity-and would have continued the fight so long as he could find any Confederate force to strike with him." It appear s from this that Mr1. Davis thought he had a right to play fast and loose with Sherman's proposition athis own pleasure. MARRIED, On the Mth of June, by Rev. 0. J. CBOOHAN, Mr, M.
