Southern (Medevacg „■■■ ■>—-—dU —« — GKO W. ADAJJt m -.J, HENLY SMITH, OTtoas AU rrtrairtM*. 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 SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. 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. Our Special Washington Correspondence.

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 ? Public Meeting In Clayton Couuty. According to previous announcement, a re spectable portion of the citizens of Clayton county met this day, in Johnson’s Hall, for the purpose of sending delegates to the Gub ernatorial Convention to assemble in Milledge tills on the 4th of September ensuing. On motion of Hon. J. F. Johnson, Messrs. Fitzgerald and Muoday were called to preside over the meeting, and J. C. Grice, Ksq., re quested to act as Secretary. By request of the Chair, J. F. Johnson, Esq , explained the object of the meeting in a very well timed speech ; whereupon, the following preamble and resolutions were unan imously adopted, to-wit: Whereas, we see, in the newspapers, a oall for a Convention of the people of this State, irrespective of old party lines, to be held in Miiledgeville on the 4th of September next, to uominate a oandidate for Governor, to serve the State of Georgia for the next ensuing two years, and a request that the several counties in this 8tete scud delegates to said Conven tion ; and, fully endorsing the call for said Convention, believing it to be proper and right for the purpose specified, be It, there fore. Resolved, That we will appoint delegates, and that our delegation be constituted of one from each of the old party lines, to-wit: Hon. J. F. Johnson, Hon. E. Glass, and John C. Smith, Esq , to represent the oounty of Clay ton in said Convention. Resolved, Id, That we hereby pledge our selves to support the nomiuee of laid Con vention. Resolved, 3d, That we request the Secreta ry to send the proceedings of this meetiog to the 44 Southern Confederacy ” for publication, with a request that the Atlanta 44 Intelligen cer" publish the same. The meeting then adjourned. P. FITZGERALD,! nL , . A. J. MUNDAY, J. C. Grick, Secretary. List of Wounded In Geueral Hospital, Charlottesville, Va.

The a eh these prisoners do not appmheod any ] punishment, beyond confinement, they are I nut likely to be releseed at present. 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. F. K. ZOLLICOFFER, Brig. Gen. Commanding. Arnold Harris aud Harry NsGraw. A Richmond correspondent of the Charles ton Mercury writing on the 4 August saya : 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 Richmond. What the cause of these fresh re strictions are I oannot learn. I learn that Presl- ideat Davit was appealed te earnestly by hit personal friends, for Harris, bnt he remained inexorable. Harris had always baen regard ed as a friend of the 8onthera eauae.
