ATLANTA, GEORGIA:
srxDAY, Ar<;rsT 11, 1 ml
Doing uo Good aud Much Harm.
Our neighbor, the 44 Intelligencer,” in ite is-
eue of the 7th inst, has a abort editorial as
follows:
A Cute Yankee Trick—-Georgia Womeu
versus Kub mission let m.
The 11 neutral” Yankees of Georgia are about
arranging matters so that, ia the absaace of
Southern Bights men in Virginia, the afore
said Puritans can hold the balance of power
and elect the Governor. If the Yankees had
displayed half as much generalship at Man
assas as their " neutral” brethren are develop
ing in Georgia, the reeult of that great engage
ment might have been different. Every South
ern man who leaves for the wars is piactically
another vote gained to the Yankees. In the
abseuce of our brave Southern boys, the Puri
tans will have the election all their own way.
We therefore suggest, in order to oounteraot
this 44 neutral” Yankee element, that the wife,
mother and sister of each absent volunteer be
allowed to vote for Governor.
We sincerely regret to find the ** Intelligen
cer” editor using such irritating and unneces
sary language. He should have the good of
his country more at heart, and seek by every
means to promote the harmony of oar people,
and not endanger either by naing such uojus
till able, denunciatory language towards his
fellow citisens, as can have no other result
than excite unfriendly feelings in them, and
can do She “ Iuteliigencer” editor no other
good than to gratify bis vindictiveness.
The terms Yankee and Puritan are offensive
ly applied to thousands oi as good citisens as
the State can boast of. Nothing could be more
unjust or uncalled for, and weeannot-see what
good was intended to be accomplished by it.
To heap offensive and opprobrious epithets
upou good meo, is not, in our judgment, the
best way to promote the harmony of our peo
ple, and the general welfare; neither is it ne.
cesaary to the vindication of truth, or to sus
tain any good oause. We can think of noth
ing more out of place.
This country has no truer friends and sup
porters than the men whom the “ Intelligen
cer” hua denounced as Yankees and Puritans—
not even the editor of that journal himself.
Surely it was thoughtless—not intentional—
uttered without considering the import of the
language; and even in that case ia inexcusa
ble in the editor of a public journal.
We have no c/ass of toriee or traitors among
us. A very few there may be, but they are
very few indeed, and not confined to the mem
bers of any of the defunct political parties of
days gone by. These should he ferretted out,
brought to public justice and properly dealt
wjth; but to. make wholesale denunciations
against a large portion of our people, who are
as good citizens as any other, simply because
they may have belonged to a party heretofore
that was obnoxious to the Intelligencer, or oc
cupy a position now upon some question of
domestic policy not in accordance with the
views of that journal, is surely indiscreet and
unwise; and the man who, under such cir
cumstances, can apply such offensive epithets,
must surely have bad judgment, or not have
the general good of our common country as
much at heart as he ought.
There never was a time in the history of the
world, when the people of a nation were so
united as the people of the 8outh—and of
Georgia especially--since secession ; and there
never was, aud never will be, a time when
harmony and universal good feeling were so
desirable or neoessary. Everything calcula
ted to excite angry passions, stir up strife and
discord, and alienate the feelings of our peo
ple towards each other, should be carefully
avoided; hence, we most sincerely deprecate
this throwing of a fire brand into our present
harmonious elements of society in this hour of
our country’s trial.
We had hoped the spirit of deadly partisan
rancor*—that bane of American institutions—
was dsad and buried forever. It is that wbioh
brought on the ruin of tbs United States gov
ernment, and will be the ruin of our own, un
less we effectually and forever crush out the
hydra-headed monster. It diffuses a deadly
poison throughout the veius of the body poli
tic, and its iufiuencea are fatal if suffered to
live among us. They can only be avoided by
a return to the practices of the purer days of
the republic, when corruption did not stalk
abroad so boldly in the land, and find a ref
uge in so many uopatriotio hearts—otherwise,
we shall have gained nothing by the revolu
tion which we have made, aud which so mqph
of the best blood in tbo land has been, and
will be, shed to establish. The cutting off
from the Yankees will only have opened up
the way for us to cut our own throats, and
with our own hands infuse the poison of death
into our system.
For our own part, we would much prefer to
live under Lincoln’s government, and bo ruled
by its policy—to he crushed to death by the
f it of the snake of Abolitionism—than to
rey our own hands and through enrown
j and wickedness. If death should be our
doom, let us not be seif-mtrderers.
The editor of the “ Intelligencer” is entitled
to entertain soy opinion he pleases, and ex
press them also, provided he does not express
them improperly—in a way that will do more
harm than good. This he has no right to do.
He has a perfect right to take whatever side
he msy choose on political questions, or advo
cate the claimo of aay person for office that
h# may think propar | hut ho bu no right to
do thlVin a Way that will be Justly offensive
to good citisens. lie has no right to dononnoe
a largo class of oar follow-cltltens simply be-
canee they happen to differ with him on a
question of politics of the choice of s men for
office; but when he deal this, and more—
when he so far steps beyond the bounds of
propriety menaifiti bit enormities by
applying to good Southern men the seme odi
ous and offensive epithets that he would to
Halo, Wileea, Seward or Lincoln, the oaae be
comes s serious one, nod we think demaeds a
cheek.
For ibis reason, we here retard our earnest
protest against the use ef susk language by
smy editor In the South. It is beneath the
proper dignity of a journalist. It excites bad

feeling, end irritates ell the worse passions ef
the human heart. It destroys the influence,
usefulness and respectability of the press, and
data as earthly good. It products harm, end
harm only, in every view of the ease that is
possible.
These remarks ere not msdo in any parti,
san spirit. We have ignored partite, end
have no such ends to serve. We are not pat
ting ourselves in opposition to the “ Intelli
gencer’#” views. We ere only condemning
tbo unjustifiable temper and spirit with which
that journal assails its opponents. We have
no fight to make on Gov Brown, or any other
aspirant for that nr any other office. We eball
be content with any man whom the people
may see fit to make Governor, and shall give
his administration a hearty and honest sup
port, as long as we think he is faithfully dis
charging his duties.
P. 8. Since the foregoing was writtea, we
have received the 44 Intelligencer” ol the 10th
in which appears s communication under the
title of 44 Breakers Ahead,” which indulges in
the same offensive qpitheta. May wo express
the hope that neither the “ Intelligencer” nor
any other journal in tbs State will ever again
admit such mischief making language into
their oolumns. IT any good could thereby be
accomplished, wo would not say a word
against it, but it produces harm and barm
only.

Washikotoh, D. C., July 30, 1000.
Editor$ Southern Confederacy :
Inclosed please find a list of Confederate
prisoners now in the custody of the Lincoln
Government at this place. They have been
cared for by ns, so far as clothing, beds and
bedding, with such other little attentions as
the 44 rule and ruin” government here will per
mit. Wa are not allowed now to visit them in
their prison, nor to get to them any articles of
food. They are limited to the regular army
rations, of which they do not complain, though
it would greatly ameliorate their soMtary con
finement within the walls of a prison, far away
from home and friends, if they were allowed
to receive the visits of friends and to receive
at their hands the generous tokens of their
sympathy. But both they and we must be con
tent with such favors as Lincoln’s hirelings
deal out to ua. At all eventa, you can safely
say to their friends at home that they shall not
suffer from want or neglect. If it were safe or
even prudent, I would give you the names of
some of those who are most interested in their
behalf.
We are still under the reign of terror, though
many of us have not refrained from fully or
freely expressing oar condemnation of the war
policy of the Administration and the folly and
madness of the Black Republican party.
This war is not one for the maintainance and
perpetuity of the Union—(or this is a foregone
conclusion- but one for the msintainsnceofthe
Chicago Platform, the utter overthrow of the
South and the extinction of slavery. To ac
complish theae, they are willing to sacrifice
hundreds of thousands of lives and hundreds
of millions of treasure, besides the overthrow
of all liberty an<f all government. But thanks
to God, who rules in Heaven and on earth,
their pet schemes of conquest and overthrow
of the South, reoeived a glorious check in the
salutary lesson taught them at Bull’s Run on
the ever-to be-memorable 18th end 21st inst.
I have not language to express to you the for
lorn looks and universal paroxysm which seiz
ed this community of republican aiders and
abettors on the night and day following that
“great fxdibal RUN.”
Of course we all shed tears, hut some were
more the tears of joy than aorrow. Not that
we rejoiced at the death of any man, or a vic
tory over the Constitution and the Union, but
because it was a glorious victory over the vilt
presumpticeness of • wicked and unholy sectional
organisation for the overthrow and utter annihi
lation ef the people and institutions of fifteen
sovereign Statu. The f*ot is, this sanguinary
defeat at Boll’s Run, will defeat their entire
plans for the farther prosecution of the war.—
They are thoroughly fortifying themselves be
hind their works on Arlington Haights, where
they will rest for the present. They will there
coax an attack; though I am not of opinion that
Oeneral Beaureqard intends this to he a toar ef
conquest, simply one of defence. (?)
II Gen. Beauregard had followed up his vic
tory of the 21st, he could have run the entire
federal army (“ the grand Union army”) into
the Potomac, and to-day been in possession of
Alexandria and its surroundings. I am con
founded that he did not. It would have at
once liberated the 44 Old Dominion,” and set
her captives free. But, as it is, the federal ar-
my and government are demoralised. The
army is disorganised, and the government is
unnble to effsot a lean of even $&,004,000.—
Treasury notes art a drug at 94 cents on the
dollar. I am aasered that they have placed
large amounts of those in the hands of brokers
aud others to be converted into specie at any
price, for the cry ia, “ they must havemonsy.”
Thsy art only beginning to feel the legitimate
consequences of their own folly and madness.
This Is already opening the eyes of the better
portion of the population of the North, which
mast, srs many months, put an end to this
damnabls war, and the recognition of the in
dependence of the Confederate flutes. God
speed the day as one of ponce.
I trust that our poo pie will pretties a pee the
maxim, that “ia concentration—and anion
there is strength.” Look bo Mathias? Point. It
oommanis the navigation of the Potomac. Wo
shall never despond of yonr ultimate euooeas.
Wo tract In God and your strong arm lor you is
and our deliverance. We will holy you in tum.
Ball
Prof. R. Thomassy propose* starting a salt
mannfaotery at Charleston, from sea water.—
Wo wore muoh faitrss od in ponding an arti
cle from bis pen upon tbs subject, giving a
large amount of valuable statistics, do. We
would gladly publish Iba wholn article, did
our spaoo permit. Wo make the following ex
tracts:
“ Balt springs are numerous in many of the
Southern Staton, but generally under eiroum-
stanoes very unfavorable to the cheapness,
abundance and saay transportation of tbsir
products. Consequently, those States ought
to roly upon the sea brine, which is now to
become the iaexbaufiabie salt basket of our
Confederation.
“The sea salt manufacture, when conducted
properly under the evaporating forces of the
wind and ana, not only produces the cheapest
article, but the best nod the only good ona for
curiag meat and provisions. The western
salt-packers are very well aware of its supe
riority, and no doubt can sxist as to tbs sea
salt being a great deal more available than
the boiled and deliquescent article from Llv
erpool, or from the North, ainoe the uae of
the former has been made obligatory by law
for euring the provisions of tbo army and na
vy.
"This kind of salt, termsd Turk's Island
Salt, is jusL the kind that I am to manufacture,
in order to supply the publio want, now in
creasing so rapidly. So that my enterprise is
obviously grouodsd upon a domestic interest,
and rather a national necessity, esptcially
when considered in relation with the Confed
erate army and navy provisions.
“ As to 8outh Carolina and Georgia, which
are now consuming near 2,000,000 bushels of
Liverpool salt, their yearly saving, by do-
ruestio supply of the article, will be about
$400,000. Large and direct profits will, at the
same time, derive to them from their new salt
works near Charleston, or the entrance of Sa
vannah river; for ths merchandise made from
the sea brine, and by natural evaporation, has
always taken the lead of the market as the
best kind of salt for curing beef, pork, oheete,
and other provisions, which constitute the
wealth of the Western farmers The State of
Tennessee will be certsinly supplied in this
way with the Atlantic salt from Georgia or
8outh Carolina, instead of the Turk’s Island
•alt, carried from New Orleans up (be Missis
sippi river. New Orleans, itself, whieh is
njw importing, yearly, 4,000,000 of bushels,
will retain, by a domestic manufacture of the
article, all the profits of the foreign produc
ers, and will inoreaae yearly the wealth of
Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, by sav
ing an importing sum of about one million of
dollars.
44 But these advantages are not to be com
pared to that of having indefinite quantitiea
of salt at hand for agricultural purposes. For
manuring the cotton field, for instance, how
many millions of bushels could be sold at four
or five cents, as it is in France or Italy? To
supply the unlimited quantity wanted by old
and new planters, bow many thousand acres
of sickly and marshy land would be turued
into healthy, evaporating fields, and rich
crystalizing rooms, depositories of this vital
article, now unrivalled by the cheapness of its
production ?

From the Knoxville Register.
To the People of East Tennessee.
In assuming the command of the mili
tary forces of this division, I oannot for
bear an earnest appeal to all who have
preferred the old Union, no iooger to resist
the recent decisions at the ballot box by over
whelming majorities of the people of Tennes
see. The militsry authorities are not hereto
offeod or injure the people, but to insure peace
to their homes, by repelling invasion and pre
venting the introduction of the horrors of oiv-
il war. Treason to the State cannot, will not
be tolerated. But perfect freedom of the bal
lot box has aud will be accorded ; and no
man’s rights, property, or privileges shall be
disturbed, AU who desire pesos oan have
peace, by quietly and harmlessly pursuing
their lawful avocations. Bui Tennessee bav.
ing taken her stand with her slater States
of the South, her honor and safety require
that no aid shall be given within her borders
to the arms of the tyrant Lincoln.
We have asked of the North a recognition of
our political equality, and have been refused.
We have asked for terms merely under which
we could enjoy a sense of safety to our pro
perty and time-honored institutions, but in
vein. Under suoh circumstances the States
of the South resolved to submit no longer to
long repeated and vexatious intermedling with
our rights. The North was deaf to Justioe,
became they believed they had the power to
crush us if we rebelled. With terrific threats
they moved great armies upon us. Those ar
mies have been driven back, with havoc and
consternation. Heaven baa smiled upon the
South—blessing her with rich harvests and
heroie sons. The North is already sbakeo m
a palsy—her late arrogant soldiers filled with
apprehension—her late boasted revenues
dwindled to a stern necessity for direct taxa
tion. Can there bo recreant sons of Tonneo-
•oo who would strike at their bothers while
thus struggling for Southern honor and inde
pendence ? or who would invite the enemy
over the border, to inaugurate war and deso
lation amid our own fair fields ? There can
be no doubt but few auoh. If any, it were
bettor for their memory had they perished bn-
fore suoh dishonor. Let not the Union men
of the late contest at ths ballot box, among
whom I personally know to be patrietio aud
true men be earried along by exoitement or
pasaion into eo deplorable an extreme. Though
differing upon the late political queationa, we
are Tennesseeans. For the honor and glory
of Tenneesee let ns be, as heretofore, shoul
der to shoulder ia the battle, or peacefully at
home, not sorrowing when victory perches
on the standards of Tennessee Regiments.

A Richmond correspondent of the Charles

The two prisoners—Arnold Harris and Har-
ry Magraw—who were taken after the battle,
when ia search of the body of Cam or on, the
brother of Simon Cameron (Uaeoin's Secre
tary of War,) are ia the county jail, separate
from the ethers. Until within a few days ago,
they were allowed to reoeive visitors. Ne one,
except their physieiea, la permitted le vieit
them now. Harris has many friends here,
and Magraw haa some. Extraordinary afforts
were made in their behalf, especially for Her-
rla to have them retested on parole. Harris
was oat in the city for,several hours each day,
the first few daya after they were bronght le

strictions are I oannot learn. I learn that Presl-
