It is the preponderance of the animal over the intellectual. Doubt less but this is more than can be said of men of genius. Byron and Burns are not the nly cases in point. Cowley owed Jin exit, Pope tells us, to lying out in the fields over night. Dryden hastened his death UV drink ing to excess with Addison ; Parnel became a sot; Churchill was " found drunk on a dung hill," and, finally, Fope himself, by -vhom most of these anecdotes are confirmed, is said tiy bis' biographer to have hastened his end bytlrinkiug spirits, uampoeii and ijieruige it is well understoodf-are very likely to travel the same way'.

Raleigh, May 3-83tawtd. AN APPBiL t0 THE PEOPLE OF Tin CONFEDERATE STATES. The Directors or the Young 3Ien's Christian Association of Richmond, repe ct fully, but etrnestly, submit to tbe benevolent and the patriotic throughout the Confederate States, an appeal in behilt of the Soldiers' Families in this city. Since the commencement of the war, ' Richmond has been a refuge tor those .who have been driven from their homes by our ruthless enemies. Thousands of helpless women and child. en, not. from tbe devastated, counties of Virginia alone, but from nearly every" State of the Confederacy, have sought an asylum in our midst. Oar citizens have been appealed to in numberless instances to relieve the sick and wounded soldiers, to furnish shoes and clothing . for soldiers in the field and hospital, and .to afford food and shelter for their suffering families,- and nobly have they, in the great majority of la. stances, responded to every appeal. The ruppiies of provisions in this city at this tiue are so reduced, and the difSeulties of ob taining others by ordinary rowans so numerous and great, that the tends contributed for the re lief ot the poor can accomplish but little iu pur chasing the necessaries of life. 1,1 a written report from the Clothing Bureau, it appears that there arc more than three thou sand feroaly? in thii city who are seeking employ ment f roiu Ihe Gov? rr.:uent in vain, and that those who obtain woikaretiot fullv employed. Tho wages received tor their work will not enable these poor women to procure a sutlicincy of the plainest food for themselves and children. With out assistance, th?n, from the city nid ountty g.-nfcrally, many instances of actual starvation must have occurred. Our City Council hai ntado most liberal appropriations for tb purchase of supplies, both for gratuitous distribution and for sal .- at cost ; but ths splits employed fr th jur- pose have not bcn able to preure the quantity of provisions required. Under these circnTisUiice, w foil .b it it t our tluty to.- tm.v;;-;',-. .cRIzhvi t Hou -h- r - to forward, without inoncv nnd supplies to d-liv, coctributi-nis of the army f.oir.tn:ttcc or this ncoculion. rMncc the. cnin-n,ceinnt of ihf war thi Committw ba labored r.ealoutlv and faithfully f:r tho t. irtpr.tl nd spiritu t wo'ftrc of ofx: j-: and th' ir ts'i'.i-llt-s,' and ths supers of our glriu csuo. Lrt thoee soldiers uot be discouragednow, upon tb eve of our severest, .and, ai we t u-t, our last and" most clorious ca'upaign, for want of the gfiir en? syrr.p-ithy and support of theii- friends ai home. Shipments inad t Roa;cr Martin, Superintend, ent, or Wm. P. Munford, Chairmaa of tho Atnr Committee, will be promptly, attended to. And in. accordance with a epjcial agreement in.i L' with tbe Superintendent of the S Milium Exprci Company, all express charges will bo paid by them at Richmond Contributions of money should a!sv be sent to these gentlemen.
