THE SOUTHERN WOMEN SAPPED THE REBELLION. While at Madison—a pinehed-up little town in a beau- undulating tract—I became convinced of one thing, which bad been for eome time gaining strength in my reflections; it is this, hontiytl as it may seem:—the wom- en of the South eapped the spirit of the rebellion. I say ‘strange,’ for to this hour majority of Southern women are and the men never so heartily embraced the cause as did the women. Notwithstanding all that, I am persuaded the women were the ablest allies the Union generals had, HOME INFLUENOR. the outeet, home influence: filled the ranks of ’s armies and gave ardor atid endurance to her youths, so, at the downset, home influence had thinned those ranks and made the bulk of Secessia’s sons supine, A CASE IN POINT. “Had I but done by hg first what I did by the other two, our home would be less miserable to-day.” The Madison lady who made this observation to me was of South Carolina birth, and in manners and a] ce DO discredit to any pretence that State may make for either looks or breeding.

Tiutimated a while ago that the scenery was of au un- Amteresting order, Occasionally, however, it became very Beautiful, but never bold. These occasions were when passing the mouth of a river, and breasting the gentler water of a @jind, as when opposite Darien, at the mouth ef the Altamaha.

The remark of this Madison lady, which I have quoted, and the history of her unchanged thought but altered action, is only one out of manyy such instances which I could cite, As I went through all Kast Florida and Ala- bama I met many such.

The strong feeling of the people against the Fortifica- tion bill has also found expression in the House. On Tuesday last Dr. Parker warned the ministry against Pressing the measure, saying that although the people were loyal they were not prepared for large expenditure on fortifications, and that they would not submit to the taxation necessary to levy money for such an object.

Business at a Stand-Sti in the Legislature— Waiting to Cast the Accounts and Cover Up the Deficiency—Ihe English Tory Organ in @ Fury Over Consul Potter's Speech at Detroit—True Version of General Grant's Re- marks Upon Mexico, dc. There has been literally nothing done in Parliament since the opening. On Thursday business came to a stand, and now the action of Parliament awaite the sub- mission of the accounts of the Minister of Finance—in fact, the bringing in of the budget. It wasatated by Mr. Dorion, and not denied, that the actual deficiency in revenue for the past year was over two millions of dol- lore, The delay is said to be occasioned by the desire of Mr. Galt to cover up these ugly figures by adding to the incoming accounts the first six months of the present year, when, by throwing over certain liabilities to the last six month, he can make the deficiency appear less startling. The London Herald (organ of Lord Derby) in its issue, just received, of August 8, comments in the following terms on the speech of Consul Potter at Detroit:—‘To pass over such an affront without taking efficient mea- sures to vindicate the dignity of his sovereign and re- buke the insolence of the federal government would be adereliction of duty of whith we are not disposed to accuse Lord Ruseell by anticipation. The grossness and publicity of the ingult, the position of the offender, the certainty that to let the matter drop would be to offend the pride and wound the feelings of the Canadians, must oblige any minister, who has the slightest regard for hia own fame or the honor of the crown he serves, to resent an outrage which seems to have been wilfully sur- rounded with every possible circumstance that could ag- gravate the offence. Not to demand satisfaction world be to tell the Canadians in plain words that or Mp y's government sees nothing objectionable in the prop annex their country to the Union; would be glad if Yquosazily, would not be would sorry to eee them forced into a 1oreign alliance by 9 Com- mercial policy adapted to that purpose. And this we do not believe that any minister dare say to a colony in- 4 by English settlers, and especially dear to the feelings and the pride of England, The dignity of Eng- land and the independence and loyalty of Canada must be vindicated. The federal government must apologize for the outrageous insolence of its officer, and in the meantime the withdrawal of her Majesty's exequatur must put an end to the official functions of a pérson who has go little s of official decorum or of international duty.” ast mae The Statement made in the Toronto Globe of General Grant's remarks about Mexico was not strictly correct, but Ihave reason to know that General Grant did un reservedly express his own opinion that the French had no business in Mexico, and his own conviction that they Roos not be allowed to maintain a foothold in the country, e Quenec, August 18, 1865. Proposal to Bape Anvrican Kmployer—Seeret Pledges Anent Confederation— American Yachts on the St. Law- renee, &e. In the course of the recent debate on the Potter-Wood affaly, one of the ultra British members called apon the goverfment to demand the expulsion of ail operators on the Montreal telegraph Ine who are not British born sub- jects, under the threat that no support shall be given to the company and no public busmess whatsoever transacted on their lines until this demand is comphed with. He held, further, that no citizen of the United States should be permitted to have any employment in any office or business or on any public work in Canada, in any way connected or having relations with the government. To this policy Mr. Brown in his remarks appeared to give approval: The great bombsheH of the session hag been the ex- posure by the opposition of a private correspondence be- tween Mr. Galt, the Minister of Finance, and the English speaking members of Lower Canada, in which the latter edged the government to give the Protestants of Lower nada a rate schoo! law, to preserve unaltered the present Enghst speaking election districts, and to do a variety of other things for the special benefit of that portion of the community, on condition that the said members would vote forthe @onfederation bill. This recret government bribe was marked ‘‘private and confi- dential” by Mr. pa ‘but ft leaked out and Messrs. Dor- fon and Holton ined copies of the correspondence. When it was first sprung. Spce the House, Mr. Galt at tempted to stammer a ; but when he found the letters in of the opposition, became silent and refused to admit or deny their authenticity. The other mombers of the Cabinet boldly denied that any pledges bad been made by the government. last night the mat- ter came up in debate, and Mr. Brown, who bas always $pposed separate schools, sought safety in flight from the foue. Mr. Cartier remained, and, retracting his former denial, admitted that the letter of Mr. Ga!t had been sub- mitted to him before being sent, and that he was in fact a party to the bribe. He endeavored to justify the varions promises made in the letter, but of conrse cofld not re move the fact that it wasa secret pledge made by the government to certain members to influence their voter ‘on confederation, and that by those pi the members were bribed to support the scheme to which they were before opposed. The travel continues to be very large. The stream of visitors to Quebec stil! flows steadily on, and from here, after spending a day or two atthe St. Lonis or Russell Houre, and seeing the sights of the old city, and viewing the magnificent surrounding scenery, the travellers branch off tor the Saguenay, or Lake Memphramagog, or the White Mountains, or Lake Champlain by way of Montreal, as fancy dictates. This St. Lawrence trip is ‘cone of unusual attraction, and deserves a more particu. Jar description. A favorite mode of visiting the St. Lawrence this sea- son has been by private yachts.

Favquum Srxince, Va, August 12, 1866. As it is probable you seldom hear from this part of our Row common country, I think afew lines detailing to you how we are progressing will not be unacceptable. Things are going on as well as we could expect, and al- ‘Moet as well as we could desire. The people here, almest to aman, have taken the oath of allegiance, and, 1 believe, in perfect good faith. As far as I can see, the kindest Spirit prevails between the citizens and federal officere and soldiers. Thie was strikingly manifested on the oc- casion of, the late tournament at the Fauquier Sulphur ‘Springs, and the subsequent ball given at Warrenton; and as perhaps you are not familiar with the programme of tournaments, I take the liberty of describing the one re- ferred to, in hopes that it may not be unacceptable to the readors of the Hanavp. THIS TOURNAMENT was given at the request of the federal officers, and went off as pleasantly as could be desired. Early in the morn- tng all Warrenton was astir, and vehicles of every de- scription were in demand. The United States ambu- lances were kindly tendered by General Sumner for the occasion, and were soon freighted with full cargoes of Vii ia ladies, About ten o’clock the procession |, and the road for miles presented a lovely and inter scene. The white vests and floating plumes of the kuights, mingled with the dark uniforms of the See eae to aur- the view quite a pi 1@ appearance, rounding landseaps, bounded Im the dittance by the dacape, bor ‘wave-like outline of the Blue Ridge, afforded one of the mostlovely prospects in this or any other country. About twelve the procession arrived on the ground, and after some little delay the knights were assem! before tho judges’ stand to receive the charge ey fiven on such occasions, This was delivered by Mr. J. D. B., in his happiest style, and was well received, ‘THE CONTEST. The knights then moved to their allotted stations, and all prepared for the contest. After a brief delay the trumpet sounded, and a gallant knight, with lance in rest, started. Swift as the wind he came on; but just ag he reached the ring his horse sworved from the track and he passed on unsuccessfully. The next knight was more fortunate, and triumphantly bore off the prize. A cheer burst from the crowd, the band struck up ap in splring air, and the enthusiasm rose to fever heat. It would tire you to recount all the passes of the dif- ferent knights. All rode well: but Mr. J. Green, mounted on the superb gray charger of General Sumner, was especially conspicuous. He and his horxe seemed to be possessed by a common spirit, almost realizing be- fore our eyes the fable of the Centaurs, and as he grace- fully carried away the ring, and, rushing on, cleared a wide ditch at one mighty bound, all agreed that it was one of the most spleadid specimens of horsemanship ever exhibited. The contest was at th narrowed down to two knights—the Knight of Waverley (ir. Carter) and the Knight of Rob Roy (Mr Martin), It terminated at last in favor of the bold outlaw, who thus won the privilege of crowning the qneen. What made this scene iecpilatly fuleresting is the fact that most of the knights belonged to the gelebrated black horse cavalry company. aes THR BALL which followed was one of the most interesting | ever attended. It almost rivalled gome of the most gorgeous scenes of the ‘Arabian Nights Entertainments.” The game alternation of dark uniforms, with snowy vestitures of the knights, and the draperies of the Joy: aamibelé ere of the Old Dominion, Wal i eb! ate, Some BrOQuPs Were exhibited, jas Been the tall, manly form of the Hon.
