A yong lady of Louisiana whose father's plantation had been brought within the enemy's lines, in their operations against Vicksbnrg, was frequently constrained by the necessities of her situation to hold conversation with the Federal officers. On one of these occasions a Y'ankee official enquired how she managed to preserve her equanimity and cheerfulness amid so many tri- ! als and privations, and such severe reverses of j fortune. Our army, said he, has deprived'your j father of two bunded negroes and literally do-1 solated two magnificent plantations. She said to the officer?a leader of that army, which had for^nonths hovered around Vicksbnrg, powerless to take it with all their vast appliances of war, mortified by their repeated failures: "I am not insensible to the comforts of and elegancies which fortune can secure, and of which your barbarian hordes have deprived me; but a true Southern woman will not weep over them, while her country r< - si niitiiis. jj you wis/t to crush we, fake Victcs- I burg?"?Canton [Miss) Cornmonmeulfh. A Yankee J'.stimatk of Gen. Beaukeuakp. ?The New York World, in speaking- of the fight at Charleston, makes the following allusion to General Beauregard: One result of this Charleston fight will l-e to restore Beaurgard to the favor of the southern people. True, he is boastful, egotistical, untruthful and wanting in tact, but lie is certainly the most marvellous engineer of modern times. By' his genius and professional skill he has erected batteries in Charleston harbor that would sink all \?opdcn fleets of the world, did they come under fire, and he succeeded, moreover, in driving back in disgrace the most impenetrable iron clad fleet afloat. There is no denying what this man has done, unpalatable though it may be to the Northern people. The New Herald. socakimr of tho vimill i losses on both sides at Charleston, says: "The results were as decisive for this fight as though there had been thousands slain?as decisive as we're the battles of Murfrecsboro' and Fredericksburg." ????
