A Stand Powt Dlsirabl*.?-The Charleston .
rt/ of Friday Ia9t makes some very pertinent .- . man *
with reference to the luthargy and dcsuoiidaivv o: cj-:r :
troops on.and uoar the South Carolina coast?sonn- nf .
which are to the effect that there is nothing so tmioli i
needed to inspire nt.-d buoy up our men in the ranks an j
some good wholesome flghtin-r. They arc beginning <
to loose heart, because they see no fighting there. It J
looks to them as if there is to be no figlntng- that it
it is useless to fight. Such a feeling will ruin the
spirit of any troops. They do not'see the spirit of
etern resistance on the part of their leadeis Wo
want a stand made?we wants rallying point. Le. it
once be known that Charleston is (to be defended,
with the spirit of old days, and ? new foelipg will pe: vade
where there are true men. (3ive us a fixed p dnt
of fight, where there will be no yielding, and where
we can fight to advantage and to some purpose, and
we have the men who will do the work. Let our
leaders t-ound ihe true note of war and fight, and it
will bring the men up, and infu?e neweuergy throughout
the line. ,
Says ArternuB Ward ; Ytf ma differ as
ranch as yu please about the style of ayoung
lady's figger, but I.tell' you; konfldcntially, if
she has about forty.thousand dpliara iMpeeshy,
the figger is about as near rite aB yon can
get it.
The quota for the District of Columbia; under
the new call for 300,000, pip,n to., fill; deficiences
under the last call, has been fixed at
3,019 men.
Without confidence friendship is bni-a mockery,
and Bocial intercourse a sort of war in disguise.
