SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. Southern Coafcdnacj GEO. W, ADAIt BMU iMITtt, OStTOM AMD f$mi STOSS. ATLANTA GEORGIA» SATURDAY, JUNE 29, 1861. 1 be Prospect of Peace. No one can fail to observe what would, in au> other people than the Yankees, be consid ered strong evidences of a great reaction among the masses of the North—favoring the recog nition of our independence, and the establish- meat of peccable relation* with us. How far this is geuuiue, we are at some loss to judge. The unprincipled and perfidieue character of the Northern politicians-especially those in power, is enough to make us distrust every one of their professions—no matter what thsy may be, nor with what apparent sincerity they are put forth. Prom time to time, we have laid before our readers the “peace straws” from the North. Our Virginia correspondents have late ly referred to this matter—particularly the letters of “ D. L. D.,” in our issue of the 27th, and “ A.” in cur paper of yesterday. To day, also, we publish some articles taken from Northern journals, all pointing more or loss in that direotion. This is a sut ject that is interesting to all our readers; for,' however just our canse may be in a defensive war, justice does not require, and no one desires to wage, an offensive war against our enemies. We all want peace as soon as it can be obtained on honorable terms; there fore, every indication of it, is bailed with pleas ure by every man, woman and child in the Confederacy. It is difficult to understand how the Yankee Governmentcan long carry on war. They have not the means to do so with, and they have nothing to figbt about; and further, their own people, it would seem, cannot fail to discover the utter hopelessness and futility of prosecu ting this war, and will either demand of their rulers the inauguration of a different policy, or hurl them from power and fill their places with other tueo. This, however, is mere speculation; for while we know the Government has not means to carry on the war, and cannot legitimately ob tain such means; while we know they have nothing to fight about; and while we have maoy evidences of a swelling popular tide of rc&ction in favor of peace: still we know not what violent und unlawful means they may resort to, to procure means; we know not how much hypocricy there may be in the profess ions of those who are advocates of peace„^hile we do know the base perfidy and treachery of those who have already inaugurated a war without cause, and whose grasping propensi ties have always prevented them from scrup ling at the means by which they obtained other people's goods. While, therefore, wo shall hail peace with joy when it ia obtained ; and while we shall re joioe at every evidence of its early approach we warn our people not to be lured from their place of safety on account of it. Don’t, for a moment, slack your seal—no matter what may transpire, until peace is not only proclaimed, but eatubiahed Continue to organise, equip aod send out your companies. Continue youi subscriptions to the Con federate Loan. Let our Congress and Governmentcontinue their opera- tons just the same as if there was no prospect of peace in a hundred years. The North will not do to trust an inch; and we earnestly ad vise our Government, when a treaty of peace is concluded, to keep our full Army in the field till a/ter their a in disbanded. This is our only safety, in our judgment. Further : We hope Congress will pass such laws as will prevent too great an influx of Yankees among us after the war. We are now cut off from them—we hope forever. We want no more association with them this side of eternity; and if they bavethe same instincts in the spirit land that they have on earth, we have no doubt that “all the world and the rest of mankind” will be compelled to “secede" from them, whether it be ia hell or heaven.— If any way can be devised to do so effectually, we want commercial and social intercourse with them entirely cut off. Let us open up trade with Europe and anywhere else that our supplies can be drawn from. If we go to trad ing with the Yankees after this war, we shall be drawn into an unhealthy affiliation with them, sooner or later. Then, trade with them must be prohibited. But there is another dangvr. If we success fully cut off all commerce with them, they will next attempt to come down here in great flocks and set up their merchandise and manufac tures among us—introduce their customs and ideas, with all the baloful influences of a man ufacturing and trading people. Our morals will be corrupted—our institutions perverted ; and, in process of time, we shall be reduced to another New England, with all its Infidelity, Puritanism, hypocricy, corruptions and loath ■omeoess. We should have our own comnderce in our own hands, which should be only suffi cient to supply our own wants, letting our own people enjoy whatever pnfita that may arise f om it; and not get up a trafficking ttimulua, b«youd our own necessities, which cannot have any other than the mosf deleterious influen ces. We should also make a particular point upon not allowing any manufactures to be estab lished among os, that will, in any degree, come in conflict with our agricultural interests. We are an agricultural people. This is not only our main interest; but it ia through this inter est. properly cared for and attended to, that our morals, our integrity, our institutioos, oar religion and all that now makes us the great est aod best people on earth, are to be preserv ed. If this interest, as it now existe, is auper- oeded, we are uodono forever; end towhstever extent we get ap en interest that will conflict with it, to that extent will the seeds of deoay, ruin sad death be sown among us.

He requests us to cult from hie letter, end give our readers the cause of htl sudden decamping from o«r midst. We have taken the liberty to cull it all—tor whieh we know our readers will thank us: Camf two Milba Nort* or Wivcbrstir, ) June 2Stb, ltd! J Dear Taylor, (and Drug Store): My sudden departure from my buainta* in Atlanta was no lees a surprise to mo then it wee perhaps, to my patrons. My brothar was in Richmond with a Volunteer Company of about seventy- five men, end I learned that he had telegraph ed home for more men ; "that he could n<t be mustered into service with hie present num ber. I went home to see about it, end found twelve young men anxious to go and join my brother’s Company, provided necessary ar- raogment for their transportation could be made. There wee no transportation offioer for volunteers in Atlanta. The young men, being the comrades of my ohildhood’s home, de manded that I should go with them, end see that their expenses were refunded to them.— Thinking my brother on heavy expense, and not able to be mustered in, I hastened to join him. But, before I reached Richmond, I learn ed Col. Bartow’s Regimsnt had been mustered in, and ordered to Harper’s Ferry, and expect ing battle. This news excited the boys, and we hastened on, nothing of very particular in terest occurring until we reached Winchester, a small city of about six or seven thousand in habitants. Here we learned that our troops had burned all the Government buildings and property, and blowed up the bridge, Ac., at Harper’s Ferry, and was en route for Winches ter—there being no chance for a fight. I waited ell the next day with less pationceand more anxiety to meet the boys—yea, the army —than I ever exj erienced before. About mid night, we heard that the army was marching back, that the enemy bed crossed the river at Williamsport, a small place about twenty-five miles above Harper’s Ferry, and was march ing on Martinsburg, some twslve or fifteen miles on the Virginia side. Next, a courier came in at full speed, and said the two armies were in tan miles of each other, advancing in line of battle. Well, Doc, I have had a heap of fun, seen a sight of folks, and had lota of strange feelings, but it does seein to me that I was the outfeelingest man on eartb, just about the time I heard that news. In the first place, all the brothers I have were there ; then the Atlanta Grays, Confederate Volunteers, Davis Infantry— in fact, out of the two Georgia Reg iments, I knew half the men—all there on the very point of battle—I, with twelve as brave boys as ever lived, was within a few miles of our friends, begging citixens, militia officers, ordinance officers, and trying every way to get arms, aod could not, for money nor love. I thought it was no time to be fooling about mil itary formality, and we had no time to wait to receive orders from headquarters to draw arms formally. I knew where the arms were stored in Winchester, and knew there was but one guard at the door; so I went up and attacked the guard with my Bowie-knife, and the boys got their muskets. The guard reported me to the officer of the day, who came immediately to airest me, but when I told him the circum stances, he gave me his hand in friendship, and his official signature to keep the arms. So we hastened on, but had not gone far before we met a messenger, who informed us that the en emy bad gono back, and our forces would make their next head-quarters at this place, Win chester. But we kept on until we met them. Notwithstanding they had been on constant march over a turnpike rocky road, for 00 or 70 miles, tired and hungry, having only half-ra tions for several days, the boys sent up shouts of joy, and received us with open arms, and were clamorous to hear the messages from the loved ones at home. The Echols Guards, from Merriwether county, Capt. C. W. Howard, were detailed as picket guard at Harper’s Ferry, and kept their post for six days, on half rations, without tents, and many without even a blan ket. They have not received their tents yet, and have slept all the while in the open Not a man complained, quailed or failed, and are as lively this day as I ever saw them have captured two men that I thought unsound, and give them over to the authorities. Col. Hammond, of your city, arrived in camp a few moments ago. I have just learned that a Colonel and Lieu tenant of the Federal army were captured iu Martinsburg. They are in custody at Winches ter. Doc, please show this letter to Mr. Mayson, and tell him to get George Adair to cull from the first page a notice why I left so suddenly. I write in haste, on a knapsack, while the boys are talking to me about home, and in the midst of camp confusion. Tom Cocper is now Msjor Cooper—Tom Lewis Captain Lewis. The 7th and 8th Georgia Regiments, one Ten nessee, and one Alabama Regiment, and two Kentucky Battalions are formed into a Brigade —Col. Bartow acting as Brigadie-General, hav ing two Virginia Artillery Companies attach ed—quartered now at this place. Tell May- son and Dr. Thomss their brothers are well.- The health of the army magnificent. My re gards to your lady, and friends generally.— Address W. P. HOWARD, Care C. W. Howard, Captain Echola Guards, 8th Georgia Regiment, Winchester, Virginia. Richmond or Washington f That’s the question! Shall Geu. Beaure gard dine ia Washington, or Gea. Butler in Richmond ? There is no avoiding the issue. They are packing in Washington; we hav’ul heard of any booy packing in Richmond !— Nevertheless, if ws listen to the Yankee edit ors aod to their programmes, it is very doubt fol If any of us will dint any mors. Certain it is, thsy can beat creation in laying out campaigns. Thoy set out witli 600.000 men, (on papsr ) They throw forty or fifty thou sand into Fortress Monroe; another fifty thousand between Alexandria and Arlington Heights ; fifty thousand more at Hagerstown and vicinity, to operate against Harper's Ferry; twtn»y thousand at Qraften; thirty thousand at Charlsston, Kacawha; and a hundred thousand a: Cairo, to invade the Mississippi Vallsy ; another hundred thou sand in Washington and Maryland; the whole ferae ready te move at a moment's notice and si malt anno aely. If 600,000 ha nos enough te subdue tha Rebels, make it a million l A million it Is, and with the doubled battalUons the work of subjugation is complete! And S at Butler Is not in Richmond; nor do ws ear that Beauregard is soy further from Washington !—Richmond Whig, 26/A iital. Action and Reaction. It is perhaps an inevitable, v bile U is a very painful eharaoteristie of Amsrieaa poli ties io the present times, that differences of opinion beget violent personal animosities.— Hitherto there has been no time when Amer icans, differing from each other however re- motely, could not peaoeftilly and quietly dis cuss the most radioal questions; and now there is ne trouble la talking freely one’s opinion of direot taxation or the tariff; but when any lino of policy relatiog to tbs war is brought up as a subject of dieoussion, the ex cited state of men’s minds become maiofest, and if there be any great difference of opin ion, the result is apt to be a pretty severe use of words, If not actually a resort to blows.— Ooly a few weeks sgo, the newspapers aboun ded in aeoounts of men beiog knocked down in the street for what wan styled “treasonable sympathiesand some of the newspapers endeavored to fan the flame by heading euoh statements with “served him right.” or some thing similar. This state of affairs is fortu nately past; but men's minds are still strong ly influenced by their feelings, and too many are impatient of any voice that speaks of pesce. The newspaper press has been greatly to blame in this matter. Some weeks ago tbe word “tresson” had sequired a new and broad signification in the toluenes if the republican papers. It was bandied about with a freedom that waa appalling. Tbe “liberty of tbe press,” which here means tbe right to oall any man a scoundrel, a ibief or a traitor that you dare take the liberty with, this liberty of tbe press bas bad the freest exercise. Tbe rule has been, “if any man differs from you as to the propriety of war, call him a traitor if any man thinks tbe South not starving, call him a traitor; if any man says there is a Christian South of Virginia, call him a trait or ; if any man does anything to calm the public exoitement, call him a traitor; if any man says this war is an anti-slavery war, call him a traitor; if any man says this war is not a war for extermination of slavery, call him a traitor.” In short, whatever is said, whatever is pro posed, whatever is advocated that does not meet the views of the war newspapers, is treason. There are exceptions, it is true, depends very much on who says tbe thing — Thus, for a Republican editor le prepose to “supersede the President,” is not treason. For a man of tbs same sort to say that Gen Soolt is too old and too slow, and that we want John C. Fremont, or some such man, in his place, and that we want tbe Pennsylvani ans to march on Harper’s Ferry, without wailing for Washington orders—this is not objectionable. For an out and out abolition sheet to print daily in its head line that “tbe Constitution of tbe United States is a cove nant with hell,” is not treason. For the Re publican papers to argue that in war times the letter of the Constitution is to be disre garded, and tbe President of the United Slates ought to assume and exercise the pow ers of a dictator is not treason. We might extend the illustration, but these are sufficient. Instead of the former frank and hearty style of discussion, if perchance a peace-loving newspaper treads on the toes of those warlike editors, tbe vocabulary of epithets is exhausted in the present style of reply. We counted the word “liar” repeated some ten times in the editorials of one paper a few days since. We are not censors of the press or people, but we record with hopefulness the change that is coming over our people in this respect, and tbe disgust which good men everywhere are beginuiug to feel at the amount of vitu peration which has been made use of. One of tbe New York papers a lew days since de voted an editorial to rousing the North to ven geance, even to wiping out in blood the in sults of the Southern newspapers in calling us bad names, utterly forgetful that it bad been for years steadily calling slavery “the sura of all vallanies,” and charging every slaveholder with being guilty of a violation of •very command in the decalogue! Thus its own call to vengeance seemed a quasi justifi cation of the rebellion. But with lime comes reason. Tim quers all things. The most bitter vengeance will finally fail. The strongest passions sleop calmly after a little. The more terrible the tide or tbe flood, tbe more swift is the ebb. Already, though violent men continue to oall names aod abuse men’s reputations, already the effect is past, and the argument that a good cause requires no such assistance is beginning to bs felt. Let not the reaction be too strong. Coming, as it is now, very rapidly, (he dan ger which experience teaches is, that io reac lions men too frequently lose all sense of right and only remember their own wrong. The iu- venlor of the guillotine is said to have suffer ed by it. The promoters of tbe maddest re publicanism in France went in hordes to the block. But we trust that the American mind will reach its old balance point without those great reactions which ordinarily occur in such cases. Three months sgo tbe immense majority of Americans in the North believed and advoca ted the idea that the peaceable acknowleJg ment of the Southern Confederacy was pre ferable to war. Tbe leading republican news paper in this eity even pronounced the right of tbs Southern States to establish their own form of Government to be as clear as that of the American Colonies to revolt from England in 1776. The same papsr declared that Fort Sumier was only built for tbs protection of Charleston, aud not for offensive purposes against that city, and advocated tbe evacua* tion of tbe Fort. The universal American mind was averse to the idea of war. Even among men who favored a war against tbs Colton States, it was common to hoar con- vsrsition like this : “ If Virginia secedes, are you in favor of war?” “Virginia will never secede; you cannot kick her out.” “But if she does, aod North Carolina with her.whai then?” “Why, 1 am not a fool; if to largo a portion of tho Union as that secede, then I think wo may as well give it up and acknowledge them.” Tbia was tbs aoospted doctrine of tbs emirs demooratio party, and large numbers of re publicans openly advooetsd it. Truths are omnipotent. That is truth to- d> 7 which was truth a month or three months ago to- day. What prooesa will men’s minds have to go through after the late convulsions ? How mi ny oscilaiions shall ws see, before thsy souls back upon ths truth thsy believed, In their former calm and sober moments?—N. Y. Journal of Commerce.

John J, Crittenden made a speech at Lexington, Kentucky, last week, thus de fining his position on ths war question : Tbs first groat object which bs ardently de sired, was that this war should bs put an end to; that tbs longer it continued, and tba mors devastating It became, ths mors difficult would be its solution; and to ths end of paefi- oation and the restoration of ibo kindly feel ings which once prevailed among ths happy and prosperous people of a common govern ment would bis whole energies bs devoted, if it should bs tbe pleasure of the people to con fer on him the responsible trust of represent ing them. To a war of suhjugatiou bs was opposed; and while bs was satisfied that tbe government did nothing more than its duty in tbs preparation it had made to defend tho National Capital, yet be would be prepared at aoy moment to lend a bolpiog band to arrest ths further progress of this unnatural conflict. Mr. Lincoln, he declared, was not the Pres ident of his selection, and he was neither re sponsible for nor prepared to sustain ths pol icy of that functionary. Lincoln, however, wav not tbs government, although obarged, for tbe time, with its administrative functions; and, while he repudiated all allegiance to him or his creed, he was, as be had always pro fessed to be, loyal to the Constitution of his country, under which the nation bad been so prosperous, the people so free and happy, and tbe blessings of which are priceless and innu merable. Mr. Crittenden deelared that, in his judg ment, every means should be resorted to to restore the blessings of peace, to preserve tbe Union, and to band down, unimpaired, tbe noble institutions which have come down to us hallowed by the sanction of our revolu tionary fathers. To that end he declared first that the Southern States should present to Congress, when it meets, a fair statement of the grievances under which they labor ; that, when presented, ths Congress of the United States should promptly grant a full measure of redress for those grievances; and that, if CoDgress should not do so, he would not vote one dollar to tbe prosecution of tbe war. In tbe next place, if ths South should fail to pre sent their grievances with a view to adjust ment, then that the North should promptly concede such assurances of redress aud secu rity as were just to the South ; and that be sides these, all other possible means should be employed that would have the effect of main taining the Union, preserving the Govern ment, and putting a period to the unnatural war in which the country is involved. In the event that all the means employed for this pstriotio and noble purpose should fail, and tbe war should still rage on, then he wos of opinion that Kentucky, poising herself upon her proud position of neutrality, should sum mon all her judgment aud reason, and, dis carding all passion and prejudice, should decide for herself what position she should assume. He declared that sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof; and that while he was not now, under the oontinually shifting scenes of the political drama, prepared to say what position Kentucky should occupy in the con tingency mentioned, he would be prepared, as a native and loyal son of Kentucky, to fol low her destiuy, be it what it might. The Southern Express Company and the Mails. We find the following item in tho Richmond Dispatch: “Foreion Letters to the South.—Seven teen hundred foreign letters, addressed to per sons in the seceded Sta'es, were received trom New York at the Dead Letter Office this morn ing. Thirty four hundred have been previ ouslysenl thither from Boston, New York and Chicago.
