' No. 20 Haync and 33 Pinckney street, | oil l-ly I : .Charleston, 8. C. v Southern Women. Not lo?g since, Col. Alfred R. Cal houri came from Iiis nativo North arid took charge of tho Columbus (Gaf) En quirer, as its editor and proprietor. Scarcely had ne got fairly settled in his position- when a Southern lady sent a basket ,of fruits and flowers, and following is what he said through paper in acknowledgement of the jr; ?JVe received the flowers and fruit sent byjour fair correspondent, and at once sejit them off to gladden the heart of a little girl, whoso fato is very closely link ed with ours. It will make her happier know her husband's efforts arc appre .led, and in her joy will bend and kiss tjkat smaller girl on her knee, and feel sno has friends to compensate her for tho djbar ones left in her far-off Northern ome. It was a hard thing to leave tho pot where the ancestors of two hundred ears aro buried above the Schuylkill, at a woman's faith and a good wife's ove led her to cast lior fate willingly with ours in this Southern land, which, ero this, lias been to her a "terra iricog jaita," or worse, a laud of .fabulous terrors und fiery hato for those north of the Potomac. One of the popular delusions North is, the hauteur and undisguised dislike which Southern ladies are supposed to eutcr tain for people from the Northern States. "The gentleman will receive you and your wife kindly, for Southern men arc prov erbially courteous and gallant, but you will be completely ignored by Southern ladies, and your wife will be compelled to social isolation." We did not bolieye $3lu8i as wo did not believe the many other lies that have kept so many away from this fair land, arid resolving to come, she to whom we sent the fruit aud flowers, bravely came to share, whatever fate was in store for us. But the threatened Upas out to b'e a"M W.r.?2cll? ha? turned the Southern sisters have taken her by the liana and drawn her to their hearts, and all that is good in our natures is made better by this more than generous reception. But the falsehood has gone abroad about the bitterness of Southern ladies, and it might be well to look at the cause When the war broke out there could bo no kiudly feelings in the hearts of women on cither side, for they saw their brothers, husbands, sons and lovers going out to soldier's graves for a cause each deemed right; and woman's heart of | failh was more sorely tested in these black days than were the men who went down before the blaze of artillery, or fell in the jungle, or gave up life for God and Fatherland in the hospital or cruel prison. Leaving out the questions involved in the cause of battle, men never fought and suffered with a grander heroism than did those poorly-fed, ill-clad, never-paid troops of tho Con federacy; and if the enduring offatigue without alarm, throw ing life and property into the scale with the sword be the test of patriotism, then, indeed, do they deservo the name. Tho suffering at the fearful front of fire that stretched from the Atlantic to the West ern plains,and extended down to the warm Gulf was fearful, but it was only the shadow of suffering compared tp that which was endured in tho once happy homes of tho land. Many a bravo boy fc\\ with the blood flowing earthward from his heart, but the bullet that struck him stopped not when the tide of lifo hud run out. It went on and on, till it reach ed a homo and settled in a mother's heart, or struck down, a loved one whoso young lifo was crushed by tho blow that sent the Boldier to his grave. Tho cbarge.the terrible struggle, the night, wounded on tho battle-field, the forced march, the short rations, the prison, and the escape were tho things that tested tho physique and pluck of men. But the real suffer ing of the war was in tho anxious hearts of women who felt the blow when it came, und in dread anticipation of its ever coin ing, suffered in filcuco through tho long day?and nights of gloomy years. And that suffering .was so wide-spread that sympathy became mutc.for sho could not soothe tbo woes of all. Many a fair haired boy went proudly out with a moth er's blessing, though ho did not sec the tear that followed; but lienover returned ?ho wns garnered i u one of those harv est? of death that dot the land and rnako our hills historic. Many a husband kiss ed nis wife and little blies, andwent down for Glod'and country-to the 'valley of death. 'Many a maiden j whose yqnug heart was filled with its idol, dear to her as heaven itself, pissed him and hoped fer the happier day of peace, and the longed-for time, but it came not; the bridegroom had gone at the summons of tho mystic angel to await his bride in the Land beyond the river of death. Yes theirs was suffering, and theirs aro the wounds that can not heal?for the heart of a woman ever bleeds when death , tears the loved one from it. We can not wonder, then, that in tho South women should have felt more keenly the loss of that cause for which dear ones died; while the Southern soldiers, more familiar with their foe, had grown to respect the energy and courage shown in opposition. "When the war closed it was but natural that Southern women should see in the blue-coated soldiers about them slayers of their dear ones and tho conquerors of their land. Every feeling revolted ngninst showing a regard they could not fcel,and; when political plunderers followed, it was to be 'expected thut Southern women would step aside and avoid the contagion that every honest man, North and South would loathe; and it was these men who have belied .the South and misrepresented her bentiful true-hearted daughters. Wo hear little now of the heroism of these women, though their sisters of the North emulated them in their works of mercy and sympathy with suffering. Hero in the South, women worked for themselves. In every, village and hamlet and valley and plain limy made clothing scrapcdJint.prepared dainties for the sick, and wrote words of.cheer for the well, to show the soldier boys the women were thinking arid praying for them. More like ministering angels? they went to the hospitals,'and soldiers turned on their cot of pain to bless them as they passed. ba??VcFe' 'Wftjtfie. words of dying bus sent them to his widow one far *nwayJ; they cheered the fainting boy into life; and tho touch of their soft hands had a healing balm for the burning brow on which they were placed. Kind words for the despondent; gentle acts for those racked with pain, and tears pure and sympathetic as the angels; for those who lay on a soldier's bier. All this has often J come to our mind?, and in thinking of these women we have wondered if iu the great hereafter departed spirits will have scx,\for if they do the angel spirits of wo men will rest nearer the throne of God, and their voices will bear the sweetest song, and their harps resound with the sweetest strain in praise of that God who rules over North and South, and orders th'.ngs in accordance with His great de sign. Wo meant not to so much, but the subject is prolific, and our poverty of treatment is compensated for by our hav ing thought on a subject so ennobling. A Woman Bound and Chloroformed in Her Own House. Yesterday in New York a daring at tempt at robbery was made at 141 Amity street at 10 o'clock in tho morning. The house corners on Sixth avenue, and is occupied by Henry Sicfkc and bis wife Carolina. The first floor is a liquor store kept by Sicfkc. The second floor, to which the only entrance is through an offset stairway, 1-11 Amity street contains the family apartments, a parlor, two bedrooms, and kitehen. Access to tho latter is through a small entry between tho parlor and back bedroom. Mrs. Siefko was washing clothes in the main entry, and just as she had taken a quan tity of clothes to hang out in the kitchen window, she heard the door of the small entry shut.and locked. Turning she saw two men, one of whom she supposed to bo her husband, enter the parlor through the kitchen. She followed them, and just as she passed the thtcshold she was seized by the thront and a bandage was laid over her eyes. She says that she recognized one of the faces of her capt ors as that of a man who had tried to rob her a few weeks ago, but was then fright ened away by bor stamping on the floor as a sigual to her husbaud who was working below. To prevent this the men took her shoes off and then debated what they should do with her. A quantity of strong braid was on the ?oq^J^oV^a^ .. them suggested that they hang her; to the clothes-hooks in the bcdroamiitoTJ&tp then dragged her to the bacfc*?b_?fm, and made a stout cord by twisting IhB braid, fastened it tight alUUUd !Wf JMBfi but'on trying the strength ?f the'olbll&S hodks found them too weak f?h ttie^jffiir pose- They then dragged her qa'ck*'into the parlor, tied her hands an&'fec^ljput a plaster over her mouth, andilied-feor bo fast to the leg of the piano that she could not move. Not contented" vAlk these precautions they put chloroform to her nose, and poured some kind of liquor down her tin oat. She fell into a state oi physical incapacity, but retained a vivid recollection of the" soun'ds fine heard. The robbers first'took'ofl"^ diamond earrings and finger rings. -Tfief they went into the fhjfiT'^Jeatoom and ransacked the bureau drawers, collecting jewolry of considerable vfthiei >'>Ttfese tbey put into a trunk along with'two silE dresses and some of Mr, S_tafkq*s coataert The bedroom has a >yipdo3ytou( A^ty street through which ono .of the' rqpben must have watched, for Mrel Siefke^ays > that after they had been m''tJhe?%*hftB about tweuty minutes she heard one of them say "There comes Hen,'': leaning her husband. She heard his steps as cending the stairs. Ho tried, tho, small entry door, and finding it locked, entered tho parlor by the other door", 'and glanc- ' ing at his wife as she lay under the* piaffo ho ran quickly down staita. The robbers improved the opportunity , to.,.escajHi Siefko says that ho ran down stairs^tp N get his pistol, although he was jmt half a minute gone did' not see. the re treating robbers. As he rah fired a pistol shot through agitation. He found Mrs. Sicfkc uncoucious.

Even the bottles containing the chlore* form and narcotic were, taken a way. They left all the booty they had cplleted heaped in tho trunk. The robperq Mrs, Sief ke thinks she recognized she describes as a short, stout, dark-coroplexi?ncd1 tnau I wearing moustache and imperial. As tbey spoke of her husband familiarly as "Hen'' she thinks they aro frequenters of I his saloon. He went oilt of his saloon just before their entrance, a fact of which they were undoubtedly aware. As there ero no marks of forcible entry on'tho outside door it is inferred they must have had latch keyB, and hovehad"a thorough acquaintance with _tho_.premis.es. The ward detectives worked on tho case all day without making any arrest.?Sux. A Saco woman, while putting down a carpet a few days ago, aceidently spilled a paper of tacks in a chair, and, before she had time to remove them, she was called away to attend to a' lady visitor, - who dropped in to tell her about a love of a bounce, she forgot all about the tacks. When her husband came home at night ho sat down in that chair to tako oft* his boots, and then he got up again, without wasting any timo, and made a*, speech; and bis wife is ready to take k#% oath that bo can quote more Scripture-ift> a short space of tinio than any man, living.
