A meeting of the oitisacsof Marietta took plaoo
yesterday, to make saitable arrangements for
the oocssion of tho deli very of tho eulogy of
Ex-Governor McDonald, by Eon. Hoary B.

^ The most ridiculous thing that has appeared
in print during the late political troubles and
excitements, is Liaoele’s war proclamation.—
It has all the characteristic bloater and brava
do of a fool and a coward, when he wishea to
frighten off a collision, which ha has neither
the sense nor courage to meet like a man. He
commands us all to go horns, and submit quiet*
« Ij to his rule, in twenty days. Of course, he
eapeets us to oornply at oece. Ha supposes we
* will aet like a dog whan caught killing sheep
—toek his tail between his lags and sneak off.
Ifo doubt ha thought we would all feel mean
as soon as we should read bis orders, and would
never dare to hold up our boadain decent oom-
pany Alain. But wasn't that gracious in him
t# give us twenty days t 0, moot merciful Mae
Akt! How lenient to your rebellions sub
jects I
Bat, seriously, the ridiculous folly of this
proclamation is unparalleled. Prentice’s il
lustration of stuffing butter down a rat's throat
with a hot awl is feeble when compared to it.
Just think of 78,000 troops subjugating the
South I Every man with a spoonful of brains
knows it to be impossible I There are not men
enough in the whole North to do this! No;
the Lincoln Administration has another object
in view. They wish to frighten our people, to
prevent our loan from being taken to-day!—
They want thia war proclamation to go over to
Europe by the first steamer, to prevent our
recognition at Europeau Courts! In these two
directions lie the secrets of this bombastio man
ifesto. Their rage will accomplish nothing—
their malice will be impotent; and all their
spiteful threats and efforts will recoil on their
own heads.
Secession Recognised.
We have received by telegraph tbs quota of
troops which Lincoln has called for from each
State* It ia singula^ that ha does not call for
a man from any one of the Confederate States.

General Bragg had received information that
they Intended attacking tba Navy Yard lest

will be compelled to sleep on our arms every

States have five vessels in the outer bay, with
man and amuniUon for the Fort, but they have
as yet made no attempt to reinforoe it. One of
the steamers—the Wyandotte—comas into tba
bay and steams up lo tba Fort every day ; but
she is watched so closely, that it would be im
possible for her to reinforce it, without us see
ing them, when our batteries would be imme
diately opened on her.
From present appearances, I think we will
be ordered to attack the Fort either to-night or
tomorrow night, whan I expect to ace hot
work. Wa have Fort McRea, Fort Barrancas,
the Redoubt and several sand batteries that
can play on Piekons at once, and all have guns
of the largest calibre. 1 will write every day

CniRLBSToif, April 14, 1861.
Gbrkral John H. Ricb : I got here one hour
after the surrender of Fort Sumter. We ex
pected the vessels of war that are lying out to
make an attack on us last night; but all srems
quiet this morning. Soma think they will
coma up and try to retake Sumter; but you
know when they were so cowardly as not to
help Anderson, they will give it up.
I have not heard of the first lady of this city
shedding a tear; and I honestly believe the
ladies of this city could protect it from the in
vasion of the Black Republican party. They
wers around looking on, and begging for pass
ports to go over and man the guns. They have
no use for cowards here; they are brave. Men
and ladies all talk to suit “ Cousin John.”—
[They’ll do, if tney suit you, “Cousin John.”
—Eds. CoRrxDKBAcr.]
I will stay here a few days, and then return
and visit otfr friends at Fort Piekeos. I am
sorry I was not here sooner, but glad that I
came when I did. Our boys from Atlanta have
gone over (to the Forts) to see how thiugs are.
I will go over this evening. I would have sent
you a dispatch after I got here, but there was
no chanca (o get it through. I sent you one
from Augusta, and one from Branch villa, which
I hope you received. I will give you a full his
tory when I return.
I am still excited, hearing them tall of the
battle. I can standjind see the vessels of war
out at sea. It makes toe feci wolfish, knowing
they have no business hero now. I fear they
have this port now blockaded.
Yours truly,

For the Southern Confederacy.
DeKalb Aroused.
Meters. Editors:, On Saturday, 13th instant,
tli# citisens of DeKalb county, actuated by a
feeling of patriotism, and aroused to a sense of
duty to defend their homes, their firesides, their
rights, tnd their seotion, met st Decatur for
the purpose of forming a military company for
immediate service in the Confederate 8tates.
DeKalb county is one of the oldest and tru
est counties in ths State. Inhabited by the de
scendants of Revolution ary memory, end those
who mst the British enemy in the war of 1312,
and having furnished her supply in the Creek
war of 1836, and in the remove! of the Chero-
kees In 1888, and while many of her breve and
patriotic sons perished in the Msxicen war, she
is still anxious to respond to the call, and fur
nish her supply of troops in the present emer
gency.
The company now organised is officered and
oomposed of ths best citisens of the couaty.—
Captain Fowler is well known, having served
h eric fore in two campaigns, end I now venture
that if they have a fair chance, they will suc
cessfully prove thet “ DeKalb never yields.”

The Chicago Times urges all the oolored per*
sons in Chicago to go South "to their friends.”
We have an amendment to offer right here,
which is—that Mr. Turveydrop, of the Times
office, should go South to his friends. A rnovo
menl of this kind would be more popular in
Chiesgo than the one suggested iu behalf of
ir colored people.
Could there be a more utter waste of pow

tain their colored brethren and drive white
men off. We are awara that w« are a great

birth is very offensive to them—that in fact
we have not the proper Congo odor for their
