Tho Confederate Dcatl at Avcrysuoro'. Mr. Editor: Pursuant to thc call made by Gene ral QCATTLEBAUM, of Leesville, S. C., and Mrs. J.. C. SMITH, of Fayetteville, N. C., through tho col¬ umns of 'Inn CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS, of tho 21st ult., for assistance in thc patriotic endeavor to fur¬ nish our horoic dead at Averysboro', N. C., with "ono common cemetery," the surviving officers of thc South Carolina Regular Brigade, residing in thia city, have held a mooting, at which Major T. A. HCOUEKIX presided, and appointed a committee composed of thc following gentlemen-J. M. RHETT, F. W. OCIEU, Jona C. Ihsqri, E. S. FICKLIXO, JOHN A. KEITH and F. K. HUGER-whoso duty it skill bu lo correspond with their late brother offi- cors throughout thc State, and suggest such steps as may be necessary in raising fuuds for tho pur¬ pose bf enclosing thc ground, so generously con¬ tributed by Mrs. SMITH, with an iron railing; and erecting a suitable monument in memory of the gallant officers and men who now He biuied there. In order to create suflicient public interest to guar¬ antee success in this undertaking, tho committed would simply invite tho attontion of our fcllow- citizons throughout thc Stale, and especially those residing in Charleston, to the following communi¬ cations, and sincerely trust it may novcr bc justly said that South Carolina was found wanting in sympathy with those who would gladly join in hon¬ oring her own distinguished dead. For (he convenience of those of onr city who may wish to contribute even thc smallest amounts, sub¬ scription lists will be left at thc offices of TUE DAILY NEWS, Mercury, and Courier respectively. JULIUS M. RHETT, CÍiairmau. Thc following is thc call of General QUATTLE- DAUM and the letter cf Mrs. SMITH, referred to : THE CONFEDERATE DEAD NiiAIi AVZH'-SIIORO', NORTH CAROLINA. Mr. Editor: Several months ago I made known to you and thc numerous readers of tho NEWS a proposition of Mrs. Smith, and other ladies of North Carolina, to have all thc Confederates who foll in battle near Averysbo-o' md still lay buried where they fell, taken up ¡md rcinterred in one common Cemetery; tb bc properly enclosed, and tien havoa suitable monument erected to their memory. This generous, patriotic .lady offered to donate not only the ground, but to render all thc assistance in her power tc carry cut this Iaudablo obiect, and asked tho aid and cooperation of tho ladies of South Carolina, as well as thc relativos and friends of the deceased genera Hy. As theso troops wore mostly from Charleston," where (hoy had, for full four years, stood moro invincible" than walls of stone among the bravest of its bravo defenders, never for a moment faltering, even under tho terrible shower of iron hail to which they were exposed from Inc opening lire on Fort Sumter to the pain¬ ful evacuation of thc city, presenting themselves at all times as barriers* between thc innocent inmates within and their inveterate enemies without, uulil thc order came from a quarter which they, as soldiers, were bound to obey, und thus, for lite first time, turning thoir bâcles upon their homos and tho many loved ones left behind, to still do battle for them in distant fields-1 repeat it, as these were tho troops who scaled with their life's blood their unswerving devotion to a causo in which Charleston fully sympathized, from thc rising of ¡tsmorning star to" thc going down there¬ of-i did hope that the reasonable request of thc fair daughters of thc .Old North State-to do just, deserving and becoming homage to these noble martyrs-would receive a ready and willing re¬ sponso from their more Southern sisters. Nor can I believe otherwise than that, when tho lvdios and citizens of Charleston learn, from too subjoined letter of Mrs. Smith, that tho good peoplo of North Carolina have performed tho first and most disagreeable part ol t his very commendable work -that of collecting together tho dead bodies-and now only want a few hundred dollars to complete the cnclosuro and monument, they, too, will readi¬ ly contribute thoir part. It only roquircB somo organized plan, with generous, patriotic ladies of Charleston at its hotel, to make this matter suc¬ ceed. You may do much to aid tho schomc through thc instrumentality of your paper, and by a little privato advice. For Hie credit of thc State; for what is duo to thc people of a sister State, who have so kindly initiated thc matter; for what is due lo tho honor of tho honored doad, let mc in¬ voke you, Mr. Editor, to urge on this work, so well begun, until the last romans of these lalo, long defenders of your city shall be properly en¬ closed with an iron fence, and an appropriate monument shall bc erected to mark thou* last r.'sting-plnrc, and thus hand down their deeds to thc remotest posterity. Because they fell in a fidlen cause, their memory ts nono thc less worthy of thc homage of their country. In furtherance of theso views, please publish tho following letter from Mrs. Smith, at. whose house, a few milos from Avorysboro', tho battle in which the'so men fell, was fought, on thc 10th March, 1803. Thc most of tho slain wore of thc (wo Soul h Carolina Regiments of Regulars and Lucas' Battalion of Charleston-tlirce only fr m Georgia: I MBS. SMITH'S LETTER. | OAK GROVE, November 23d. 18C>ti. General Qnattlcbaum, leesville P. 0., & C.: You will, I hope, pardon tho liberty I have taken in writing to you again on tho subject of tho ceme¬ tery for our brave soldiers. Wo, thc ladies or thc vicinitv of thc battle-field (near Avorysboro'). have had all thc bodies rumored and placed together in a vory suitable spot, and aro now ready for tho donations for (¡>.o "cnclosuro and monument." I wish an iron railing; it is so much better; any ctlier lasts so short a time. I have had several letters on thc subject, and they all concur with mn in this idea. It will coat more, of course, but it will be complete. Wc havo an Association formed now. Mayor McLean, of Fayetteville is our Treasurer. Chan¬ cellor Loscsno. of Charleston, has mado ns a dona¬ tion of S50. and he will receive for ns auy sum that may bc donn ted. There arc tinco Georgians, all thc rest aroSonth Carolinians : and, as wc have moved them, wc have no doubt but South Carolina will complete it if she know of it, and Georgia, I havo no doubt, would do her part. Wc have placed fifty-eight bodies in tho cemetery. I will bo vory glad if you would aid us with your influence, and in any way you may feel disposed. I nm very desirous that this matter should bo generally taken hold of. and I think it is obliged to succeed. Our neighborhood have dono what they folb able to tb, andliavo done it cheerfully. I eau assure you it is a very great relief lo my mind to know that tho graves of our noblo martyrs aro no longer scattered over tho land, unknown and uncaredfor ; and I boliovo thorc is still genuine patriotism enough loft to secure to ns thc completion of this work. Wo havo had them removed for ton miles around. Please havo this published in your papers, and do what yon can for na. Let mo hear from you soon on tito subject. Yours, Mrs. J. C. SMITH, Fayetteville, N. C. WHISKEY FRAUDS.-Thc frauds discovered by tho Investigating Committee, in New York and Brook¬ lyn, aru said to bo as wide-spread as startling. There has been a nnivorsal swindle going on, from the start,* in which Government agents arc dosply implicated. Tho excuse is, tho "difficulty of find¬ ing honest men" as Inspectors ! There ÍB nothing singular in this fact. Fraud and coemption were born of tho war,-in which cotton-stealing was le¬ galized bv men high in office, and tho contagion has spread to i ts present magnitude by force of ex¬ ample.

As theso troops wore mostlyfrom Charleston," where (hoy had, for full fouryears, stood moro invincible" than walls of stoneamong the bravest of its bravo defenders, neverfor a moment faltering, even under tho terribleshower of iron hail to which they were exposedfrom Inc opening lire on Fort Sumter to the pain¬ful evacuation of thc city, presenting themselvesat all times as barriers* between thc innocentinmates within and their inveterate enemieswithout, uulil thc order came from a quarter whichthey, as soldiers, were bound to obey, und thus,for lite first time, turning thoir bâcles upon theirhomos and tho many loved ones left behind, to stilldo battle for them in distant fields-1 repeat it, asthese were tho troops who scaled with their life'sblood their unswerving devotion to a causo inwhich Charleston fully sympathized, from thcrising of ¡tsmorning star to" thc going down there¬of-i did hope that the reasonable request of thcfair daughters of thc .Old North State-to do just,deserving and becoming homage to these noblemartyrs-would receive a ready and willing re¬

sponso from their more Southern sisters. Nor canI believe otherwise than that, when tho lvdios andcitizens of Charleston learn, from too subjoinedletter of Mrs. Smith, that tho good peoplo ofNorth Carolina have performed tho first and mostdisagreeable part ol t his very commendable work-that of collecting together tho dead bodies-andnow only want a few hundred dollars to completethe cnclosuro and monument, they, too, will readi¬ly contribute thoir part. It only roquircB somo

organized plan, with generous, patriotic ladies ofCharleston at its hotel, to make this matter suc¬ceed.You may do much to aid tho schomc through

thc instrumentality of your paper, and by a littleprivato advice. For Hie credit of thc State; forwhat is duo to thc people of a sister State, whohave so kindly initiated thc matter; for what isdue lo tho honor of tho honored doad, let mc in¬voke you, Mr. Editor, to urge on this work, sowell begun, until the last romans of these lalo,long defenders of your city shall be properly en¬closed with an iron fence, and an appropriatemonument shall bc erected to mark thou* lastr.'sting-plnrc, and thus hand down their deeds tothc remotest posterity. Because they fell in a

fidlen cause, their memory ts nono thc less worthyof thc homage of their country.In furtherance of theso views, please publish tho

following letter from Mrs. Smith, at. whose house,a few milos from Avorysboro', tho battle inwhich the'so men fell, was fought, on thc 10thMarch, 1803. Thc most of tho slain wore of thc(wo Soul h Carolina Regiments of Regulars andLucas' Battalion of Charleston-tlirce only fr mGeorgia: I

MBS. SMITH'S LETTER. |OAK GROVE, November 23d. 18C>ti.

General Qnattlcbaum, leesville P. 0., & C.:You will, I hope, pardon tho liberty I have taken

in writing to you again on tho subject of tho ceme¬tery for our brave soldiers. Wo, thc ladies or thcvicinitv of thc battle-field (near Avorysboro'). havehad all thc bodies rumored and placed together ina vory suitable spot, and aro now ready for thodonations for (¡>.o "cnclosuro and monument." Iwish an iron railing; it is so much better; anyctlier lasts so short a time. I have had severalletters on thc subject, and they all concur with mnin this idea. It will coat more, of course, but itwill be complete.Wc havo an Association formed now. Mayor

McLean, of Fayetteville is our Treasurer. Chan¬cellor Loscsno. of Charleston, has mado ns a dona¬tion of S50. and he will receive for ns auy sum thatmay bc donnted.There arc tinco Georgians, all thc rest aroSonth

Carolinians : and, as wc have moved them, wc

have no doubt but South Carolina will complete itif she know of it, and Georgia, I havo no doubt,would do her part. Wc have placed fifty-eight bodiesin tho cemetery. I will bo vory glad if you wouldaid us with your influence, and in any way youmay feel disposed. I nm very desirous that thismatter should bo generally taken hold of. and Ithink it is obliged to succeed. Our neighborhoodhave dono what they folb able to tb, andliavo doneit cheerfully. I eau assure you it is a very greatrelief lo my mind to know that tho graves of ournoblo martyrs aro no longer scattered over tholand, unknown and uncaredfor ; and I boliovo thorcis still genuine patriotism enough loft to secure tons thc completion of this work. Wo havo hadthem removed for ton miles around.Please havo this published in your papers, and

do what yon can for na. Let mo hear from yousoon on tito subject. Yours,

WHISKEY FRAUDS.-Thc frauds discovered by thoInvestigating Committee, in New York and Brook¬lyn, aru said to bo as wide-spread as startling.There has been a nnivorsal swindle going on, fromthe start,* in which Government agents arc dosplyimplicated. Tho excuse is, tho "difficulty of find¬ing honest men" as Inspectors ! There ÍB nothingsingular in this fact. Fraud and coemption wereborn of tho war,-in which cotton-stealing was le¬galized bv men high in office, and tho contagionhas spread to i ts present magnitude by force of ex¬

ample. "Mr. John Devlin-one of the parties con¬

nected with Messrs. Tilton and Levan, now on ex¬amination before United States Commissioner New¬ton, at Brooklyn, N. Y., on the chargé of defraudingtho Government by branding whiskey where no li¬cense hud been paid-was on Thursday arrestedon a civil process, at thc instance of thc UnitedStates District Attorney, to recover tho sum ofSlOU.lino. as tines »nil penalties incurred by violat¬ing tho Internal Revenue laws.
