BETHEL
Respectfully inscribrd to the.Xotth Carolina avtl
Vrjuiiu.Regimrht, tcho re at Bethel Church
on Muuday, 10A of June.
When "Jacob, weary, desolate,
The object of a brother's hate,
Was exiled from his home;
He lingered at the setting sun
Ihe day's sad task of travel done
And rested 'ueath Heaven's starry dome,
At Bethel.
Alone, yet not aline, was he,
Exposed, but still from danger free,
Cast dowu, yet undismayed;
With gathered stones" beneath his head,
And God's all-watchful care o'erspread,
He slept as on a downy bed,
At Bethel.
And as he slept, and as he dreamed,
"A ladder set on earth" there seemed,
Whose top reached info Heaven;"
While on its rounr1?, with active feet,
Ascending and de6cending" meet,
'Angels" of God, bright vision given,
At Bethel.
And lo! the Lord above it stood,
And spoke him promises of good,
Ilia promises and His keeping;
Then taught him when he woke to kneel,
And reverential awe t- feel
For him who watched him sleeping
At Bethel.
Methinks a ladder since was set,
And God looked down and angels met,
rlhe missile's course to guide;
Where nobly stood nur gallant band,
Loved Jacob's of this Southern land,
Aud tought fur. freedom, side by side,
At Bethel.
Ye Southrons now, like Jacob, kneel,
Your altar rnihe, like Jacob feel,
'1 urn, turn ynur hearts to Uraven;
"I was not by numbers nor by power,
He taved you in the perilled hour
Give II mi the praise for vict'ry giTen
At Bethel.
Go on, protected by His care,
You need no brother's hate to fear,
Nor thrust of deadly tteel;
A righteous cause 'tis yours to know, '
Then htrong in conscious duty go
7 rust Him who guarded you for weal
At Bethel.

An Incident. After the Vienna battle last
week, a South Carolina soldier, who had been out.
on it scout, was arrested ly three of the retreating
Yankees, who. alter dinnming him, fit out for
the Federal camp, 'calculatin ' largely, no doubt
on the welcome plaudits that awaited them for
their heroic exploit. But all things fair are doomed
to fade. After marching some distance the party
came to a halt stacked arms, which wer topped
with the sword bayonet, and two of them went in
pursuit of water, leaving the Carolina captive in
charge of the Yankee captor. The former watch
ed his time,, and when the watering party was out
of sight, seized a bayonet, and at a single stroke
almost severed the head" from the body of his
companion, after which he quietly took possession
of the arms, and marched to the camp of his
friends. Le.esburg Va) Mirror.
Pay YourSmall Debts. This is good advice,
and there never was a time when it is a more
solemn duty. When the small debts are paid,
there is a general confidence among our home
people, and the wheels of trade move on regularly
and easily. Besides, it is fhe small debus which
control all the big oaes, and which, most materially
affect trade. None are paying to our enemies,', but
all should make a special effort to pay their small
debts to their f iends. if for ii.o other reason than that

THE PRIVATEER SAVANNAH.
The United States' steamer Harriet Lane, from
iortres"? Monroe, arrived at - New York onTuea
1 'day. with six invalids from the flag-ship Minnesota
! the master. Byers, and ihree seamen pf the prixe
brig Hattie Jackson, and the officers arid nine of
the crew of fhe privateer Savannah. The follow
ing particulars we copy from the Evening Post:
The Harriet Lane comes toihe Brooklyn Navy
Yard to replace her present armancnt with more
! effective ordnance.' She is now armed with three
32's, four 24 'a, ' and 'one I2;-potmd guni' A long
range rifle gun. eight inch, capable of throwing an
; elongated shell of one hundred and twenty poundi,
j and whose range is said to be five miles, has been
j prepared for the Harriet Lane, and will be ptit on
board. Ihe gun is now at Governors Island
With this gun forward, and, as Capt. Faunce d
sires, four rifled 24's or 32's aft, the Harriet Lane
will become one of the most serviceable vessels in
our Navy.
TIIE OFFICERS AND CREW OF THK TRIVATEER
x SAVANNAH. .
. The news that th Harriet Lape had brought
portiou of the crew of the privateer Savannah
attracted a considerable number of visitors to the
Navy Yard' this morning. The vessel, however,
lay in fhe stream near the buoy, and access to the
vessel was somewhat difficult. By the courtesy of
Captain baunce one of our reporters went on
board, and had an interview, with the prisoner.
The officers were on the deck aft, sittiug inside of
a temporary shelter formed from a mainsail, and
were Having a good time. i iiey were uncon-
fincd. -The crew were on the starboard eidaof fhe
upper deck, sitting on a long bench by the side t)f
tlio w heel-house. J hey were all hand-cuffed, but
wore no other iron. . ,
TUE OFFICERS. - .
The captain of the privateer. Sayannah call
himself Harrison Baker. He says he was' born
in Jrhiladeiplua, and is now thirty-seven years old
He is a tall, full-bearded, by no means repulsive
looking man, and was neatly dressed in a suit of
blue flannel. He has lived in Charleston for a
long time, and has ' followed the sea" more or less
for the past fifteen years. He is great on prece
dents. Everything that he har done has beeu, to
use his own language, "as privateers usually do,
thus: He took out his letter, and intended to tuake
a short cruise, say thirty days, after the usual
cu.-tom of paivateers; the men were to share ac
cording to the proceeds of prizes captured, (" as
privateers," &c ,) and the prises taken were to be
sent into the nearest port and delivered to " the
Confederate Prize Commissioners," who would
decide as to their disposal.
His crew were generally shipped by an agent
and sent on board. He knew a few of the men,
and fhe- best of them were sent in with the first
and only priie captured the brig Joseph, from
Cardenas. Our reporter noted with some. sur
prise the frankness with which Capt Baker spoke
of his affairs, particularly with regard to the prize
Joseph. It will be remembered that the Perry
brought one of the crew, who is supposed to be
disposed to turn State's evidence, aud . it is upon
his testimony mainly, with regard to the Joseph,
that the District Attorney look's for a conviction
of the prisoners. There will be no difficulty in
obtaining a sufficiency of evidence, as all the offi
cers a tid crew speak of the capture as aa ordinary
business transaction according to " the usual
custom of '.privateers." -
The captain was yery envious to know what
" the people of New York thought. of him." He
says that he is not over and above anxious about
his present condition as a prisoner. . He his done
nothing more than "is usual," fcc. "If we had
the right sort of a crew, wo should have got, away
from the Terry. II is vessel was .able to get
away from any sailing ship, and he meaut to keep
clear of the steamers, and indeed of United States
vc-sst ls generally.. , . -
1 he prisoner, "Geo Knickerbocker, brought by
the' Perry, claims to be a New Yorker, and to have
been impressed. Baker says he shipped with him
aa George Livingston, and received. 20 as an ad
vance at the time of his shipment.
.John IlarlestoD is the first, officer. He is a
South Carolina man, 23 years old, and,ays h is
not a sailor; nor does he look
like one. but ap-
pears, as he says, like a man brought up in busi
ness a delicate-handed, rather gentlemanly-looking
man.
The sailing master, Henry C. Howland, is a
North Carolina man, 28 years old, and a sailor.
The purser of the-Savatinah, C. S. Passailaigue,
is a young South Carolinian, "only 19 years old,"
a decidedly good-looking, well behaved young
fellow, who ha been a mailing clerk and assistant
book keeper in the Charleston : Mercury office.
This is his first cruise as purser of a privateer. '
The general oppearanre of these four tnen whs
favorable. They had nothing of the desperate or
even rowdy look that would naturally attach to
men in their profession. The officer of the Lane
spoke of them as quiet and well-behaved, and the
prisoners desired to return their grateful thanks
for the kindness extended to them by the officers
both of the Perry and Harriet Lane.
When they were transferred from the Perry to
the Minnesota they were strictly confined, and
were not allowed to converse with any cneon
board. On the Lane the officers were merely re
stricted to their quarters aft, and a single sentinel
kept guard over them. Their communication
with each "other was unrestrained, and tbey were
well fed and kindly treated "as prisoners of war."
The following description of the landing of the
crew of the above vessel is taken from the New
York Tribune: -
At 2 o'clock p. m.f the marshal and his party
went down to the Castle Garden pier, where they
embarked on the tog boat S. A. Stephens, and
proceeded to the Harriet Lane. The marshal, on )
gapping on board, was met at the gangway-by j
First Lieut. Constable, to whom he presented his
warrant. The lieutenant 'conducted the marshal
aft, to an enclosure made of an old sail, and ther
formally introduced hiuu tb the "officers of the
pirate craft. 1 ' 'x: ' " 1
The marshal, although apparently surprised at
the distinguished consideration with which these
pirates were presented, politely shook" the hand of -
Capt. Baker, -rlacmg some ot his men aoont as
a guard, he went upon the bridge, where the erew
fl V 0 LU II E---N ftf B E U 412.
of tht pirate were stationed, handcuffed, and ia
charge of an armed guard. The handcuffs which
they had worn were now removed, and, by means
of others which- the marshal bad brought, the men
wer-s handcuffed together in pain aid transferred
to tho." steamboat,; thir , baggage bejag; carried
aboard after them by th crew, of the Harriet
Lane. The officers not yet. ironed wer . next
ordered aboard, and the pirate captain,, cordially
shaking hands with Lieut. ConatabU, said, vGood
bye, sir! . I.' hope we may- meet., gaior . under

When the boat landed at the foot, of Chambers
street, the prisoners, in pairs, proceeded .bytheir
officers, and guarded pa each side by armed marsh
als and policemen, marched,. p to the marshal's
office. The melancholy 'procession--, for. it waa sad
to see thirteen . men marohiuR, strajgkj to their
doom attracted some notice from.passers bt and
by the time that Broadway. was reached, , not only
was there a tolerably large scouting and .skirmish
ing party of ragamuffins, but also no lack of; those
miserable harpievtho .shyster-lawyers'" who at
tempted to get into eonverautkm -with the prison
ers, but were repulsed by , tbei guard,.,''. The three
pirate officers seemed to feel keenly . tho. jdegrcda
tion of their position. As they walked together,
they pulled their ooat cuffs over their mauaclos to
hide them from view and hung their .heajs'o, us to
escape the curious scrutiny pf the people. . At the
wharf, they begged the marshal to permit them to
go in a carriage; but why they should Shrink from
observation, unless conscious that,' with "all their
stars and bars, and letters of marque, they had
been in a dirty business, is cot easily explained.
AT THE TOMBS. .
Arrived at the Tombs, their hand-cuffs' wore re
jTioved and as each answered to his name,, he was
sent into the cells. . " 1
A thorough search of .their persons was then
made, but as a similar operation had -been pre
viously performed, no dangerous weapons ; wero
disoovered. Passailague, the purser, was fur from
pleased with the interior arrangement - of tho
Tombs. An intimation that Hicks, the -pirate,
had condescended to occupy tho same quarters,
and been satisfactorily disposed of, at last silenced
any further grumbling. v ;?
It-is the intention of the District Attorney to
present them for trial to-day or to-morrow and
thus bring the matter before the court immediately.
