Notice.
Very often our friends hand in local notices
and advertisements too late in the even
ing for their appearance next norning. The
printers leave our office at six o’clock; and for
more than two hours before they leave no new

Our General Traveling Agent.
Mr. J. T. Hai.l is our General Traveling Ag’t
to solicit and receipt for subscriptions and ad
vertisements for the “Southern Confederacy.”
Mr. T. C. Duval, of Rome, is also author
ized to receive cash, and give receipts for the
“ Southern Confederacy.”
The Southern Confederacy Office,
Has a reliable special letter and telegraphic
correspondent at Manassas Junction —the great
attractive field of battle at present. We have
also engaged reliable correspondents from vari
ous points in Virginia. Everybody wants to
hear the news, and all important dispatches or
news items received by us, will be promptly
placed on the Confederacy bulletin.
Quite a number of names on our daily list and
a few on the weekly, will be erased this week,
unless the subscriptions are renewed. We in
variably stop sending the paper at the termina
tion of the time for which it is paid.
Our terms for the Daily are $5 per annum
or 50 cents per month —the cheapest Daily in
the South, that gives the same amount of read
ing matter.
SST* In all cases, subscribers to the Daily
“ Confederacy” will be charged at the rate of
50 cents per month for any length of time less
than one year.
The Weekly is a very large sheet, full of the
choicest reading matter. The cheapest way to
get the news is to subscribe for the Confeder
acy.

Advertising.
The Confederacy has more than three times
the circulation of any paper in Georgia, North
of Augusta, and is fully equal to that of any
paper in the State. We do not make this state
ment either as a boast, or in order to convey
any erroneous impression, we say it candidly
—knowing what we say—and because it is
true.

Religious.
There will be services at Wesley Chapel ev
ery night this week. The exercises last week
were very iptereatiug, and a good work is pro
gressing.

A Proposition.
We want each and every one of our numer
ous subscribers to consider him or herself our
agent to procure one more subscriber at least
—we care not how many more. Let each pro
cure and send us one. This will be easily
done—will cost each one but little trouble, and
be of great benefit to us, in the aggregate.
Advertising patronage is almost nominal,
and we have no Government or other special
patronage to sustain us. Our enterprize is
standing on its own merits, and we are spend
ing every dollar of our profits to increase the
usefulness and interest of our paper. Other
papers in Georgia have raised their price and
reduced their size to suit the hard times. This
we have not done, and hope we shall not be
compelled to do. We are doing the best we
can for our readers, and, therefore, we the
more confidently appeal to them to assist us
by extending the circulation of the “Confed
eracy. Let our circulation be doubled. This
will greatly enhance our facilities for improv
ing our paper.

Near Manassas Junction, Aug. 25, 1861. J
Editors Confederacy : Probably it will not
be amiss for me to make mention of some facts
connected with the memorable places, “Man
assas Junction ” and “ Bull Run Creek.”
The former place is neither a city nor a vil
lage, but simply a depot, at which the Rich
mond and Manassas Gap Railroads form a
junction. There are three or four dwelling
houses, a shoe shop, and a postoffice, in the
place. These houses are all vacated by the in
habitants, and are now appropriated for hos
pitals for the sick soldiers. There is now a
telegraphic office in the place, fixed up in a
box car of .a passenger train, appropriated un
der the exigences of the circumstances for that
purpose. Truly it is a small office, for the ma
chinery nearly fills up the box, having room
for only two operators; yet none does more
business, and that, too, of the most important
kind.
Now, there is a general Commissary’s De
partment and several little sutlers’ shanties
outside, which furnish some of the little nec
essaries for soldiers, at the most exhorbitant
prices. These make up the sum and substance
of that most memorable and historic place,
“ Manassas Junction.”
Bull Run is nothing but a small, shoaly,
muddy creek, differing from our Georgia creeks
only in its high banks and occasional steep
and precipitous hills, which gird it on either
side. Yet it is a creel in which many of the
slain in battle found a watery grave; and in
which many of the arms and ammunition of
the terrified ami shamefully routed enemy
were deposited.
Our regiment (Col. T. W. Thomas’) is en
camped directly on the railroad leading from
Manassas Junction to Alexandria, and about a
mile and a half from the former place. Our
camp is in a very beautiful, pleasant and heal
thy place. It is on a hill in a lovely grove,
and near to some of the finest and coolest
springs that Georgians were ever in the habit
of drinking from—like ice-water, it makes the
teeth ache to drink it. Our Colonel is remark
ably particular for having the camp, and for
hundreds of yards around, divested of every
thing offensive, or calculated to produce sick
ness. We keep our camp as neat and clean as
a thrifty Georgia housewife would keep her
yard; and it would do you good to see our
boys, every morning, sweeping their streets,
toating off trash and barrels (as we call it in
camp) of rich slop; and to see with what rel
ish they pitch Ante salty pickled pork, and the
toughest and hardest leather boecakes and sea
crackers that ever was cooked, or that mortal
teeth ever crushed. I think it a great sacri
fice, and brings into requisition, if anything,
greater heroic fortitude and valor fur us of the
second revolution to undergo the necessity of
living upon such food, as it did our fathers of
the first revolution to live upon roots and
herbs,
Our Company, the “ Hancock Volunteers,”
mess in squads of twelve, with two ample tents
to each mess. The Confederate Government
gave to each mess one frying pan, a tin buck
et, camp kettle, two tin plates, and the same
number of knives and forks. We have had all
the remaining necessities to furnish ourselves.
At the present time, we are very nearly fur
nished; and now, if we furnish the material,
can hare something respectable to eat. To buy
anything here, in the line of provisions, is al
most an impossibility. We find a few old ducks
and young chirping chickens, and some butter
and eggs—for which we pay treble their worth.
Vegetables are truly scarce. Bo many sol
diers are about here, that they have scraped
the whole country, for miles around. But, for
tunately for us, we have left friends and rela
tions behind us, who have exhibited a willing
ness to supply us with the nourishments of
life.
Several days ago, Lieut. K. Culver joined
his Company, the Hancock Volunteers, at this
place, and, a few days after, Mr. Forbs. What
an extacy of joy attended their arrival! The
boys greeted them as welcome messengers and
knights from a Holy Land ! They were truly
glad to grasp their hands. They brought ev
erything that was good and consoling to a sol
dier-—letters, clothes, and the best hams, bur
cuite, cakes, and light bread, that ever was eat
on Virginia soil. God bless our Hancock moth
ers, wivss, sisters and friends. Would that they
could have been here to have seen the brave
boys relish the luxuries they sent them, and
to have heard the mingling of joy, praise and
gratitude which rose from every heart. With
such good patriotic mothers, wives, sistersand
friends, who would not endure any hardships
fortheircountry.be brave in battle, and die
martyrs to liberty ?
We have had very unfavorable weather for
the past week or two, a good deal of rain, wind
and cold nights. We have several cases of
measles in our regiment, and some cases of ty
phoid fever. Excepting these, the regiment
is in good health.
Our General, Robert Toombs, has arrived on
the field, and taken charge of his brigade. It
is well known that his experience in military
affairs is limited ; yet, with his undaunting
bravery, and untiring industry—with his gen
ius and comprehensive, quick mind, no one
can doubt but that he will make one of the
most efficient and successful Generals in the
field. He has long been one of the leading
minds in America, and one of her most popu
lar statesmen and orators, and, in his leaving
the cnair of State, the Cabinet and Govern
. ment loses one of <ts ablest counselors ; but the
i Nation, in battle, has found a brave and able
Genera! for her defense.

[For the Confederacy.
Editors Confederacy : I am glad to see that
your valuable journal has also set its face like
a flint against the corrupt and abominable
practice of party caucuesing, (but another
name for party juggling,) which has so long
disgraced and cursed our noble old State. —
Stand fast, be firm, and thousands will rally
to your help, and “ King” Caucus will bite the
dust. So mote it be. Oh, how I have longed
to see the day when the voice of the people
shall be heard and respected in the choice of
the men that make and execute our laws. I
know not that I shall ever see that day. I
fear and tremble when I think of the formi
dable opposition to be overcome. There are
such hosts in arms against us whose bread and
butter would be lost, if the people could be
heard. But I hope for the best, and hope
grows strong when I see so many able jour
nals espousing the cause of “popular sovereign
ty-”
A great many good men and true have been
presented as suitable to be run by the people
for the office of Governor of Georgia. From
the long list, the people, without a causus, can
surely make selection of a man after their own
heart, and worthy of their trust. Will you
allow me to call the attention of your many
readers to the name of one who is considered
by many the most fitting man for the place of
any that has been named. The following ap
peared in the Columbus “Sun,” of a recent
date, and I observe that similar favorable no
tices have appeared in other papers in West
ern and Middle Georgia. Col. Chambers is a
man universally honored and beloved by those
who know him, and he is extensively known,
not as a party man—not as an office-seeker—
not as a truckling trickster—but as a noble
old Roman to the manor born, and identified,
soul, body and spirit, with the agricultural,
educational and social interests of his native
Georgia. I know not who “ One of the Peo
ple” is, but he speaks my sentiments so well,
I beg you to copy his short article, and give
your readers a chance to think and talk of
Chambers for our next Governor.
MERIWETHER.
GUBERNATORIAL.
Eds. Sun—l have seen with much pleasure
the name of our distinguished fellow-citizen,
Col. James M. Chambers, suggested as a suit
able person, over the signature of “No Party
Men,” to be run as a candidate for Governor,
in the next ensuing election. It is an excel
lent suggestion, and will be well received by
the constituency of Georgia. His claims, I
doubt not, will be strongly supported by his
numerous friends throughout the State. He
is extensively and favorably known, as pos
sessing, in no ordinary degree, solid and use
ful talents, united with great firmness and en
ergy—a gentleman of large experience and
high moral qualifications. He is just the man
for the times. If called to fill the Executive
Chair, he would ably maintain the honor of
the State, and promote its true prosperity. He
would be free from all party shackles and nar
row political prejudices. He is a noble speci
men of a polite gentleman and the true Chris
tian. His nomination will be hailed, I doubt
not, with joy by the people of Georgia. They
are entitled to a good citizen Governor in a
first rate farmer—and such a one they' will
find in Col. Chambers.

Spiked Cannon.—ln the battle of Bull Run
on the 21st of July, the enemy, finding them
selves hard pressed, spiked soms of their fin
est pieces, and retreated. Major George Duf
fey, an artillery officer, the former Comman
dant of Kemper’s Battery, acting as Quarter
master of one of the regiments, noticing a
fine rifled 10 pounder spiked and 12 pound
howitzer filled with canister and spiked, vol
unteered his services to restore the guns to
their former condition, and succeeded, with
what tools were available, to unspike the two
guns above described, with several others in
tbe same condition.— Richmond Enquirer.

the battle, prayer was offered to Almighty
God, and the Holy Sacrament administered to
the General and immense numbers of his

J BY TELEGRAPH
FOR THE “ SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.”
Quincy,lll., September s.—The Confederates,
2,000 strong, with two pieces of cannon, are
between Hunnewell and Shelbina stations, oa
the Hannibal & St. Joseph’s Railroad, in Shel
byville county, Missouri, about 40 miles west
of the Mississippi river. The telegraph and
and the travel on the road are stopped.
Gen. Hurlbut, with 1,500 Federal soldiers, is
reported to be west es Shelbina.
Richmond, Sept. s.—Gen. Algernon Sydney
Johnson has arrived. He ranks in the Con
federate Army second to Adj’t. Gen. Cooper,
only. The rank of Generals is fixe! by an act
of the last Congress, and approved by the
President.
Vague reports are still current about the
capture of Rosencran’s army, but they are not
reliable. Some few private dispatches, pub
lished in Southern papers, give authority for
their statements, that his army has been cap
tured, by saying the reports are confirmed by
private dispatches received at the War De
partment. Such statements are made only to
decsi-vV-publishers and readers, and to create
the opinion that these correspondents have
news facilities superior to those enjoyed
by the general news agents.
Passengers by this afternoon’s train from
Manassas, state that the Confederates, in a
sharp skirmish yesterday with the Federals,
on taking possession of an important hill near
Arlington Heights, killed 300 of the enemy,
and lost 20. The report is given as it was re
ceived.
Syracuse, N. Y., Sept. s.—The State Demo
cratic Convention, on full consideration, has
expellefi the Mozart delegation from New York
city. [This is the “ News” and “ Day Book ”
anti-war element in the New York city De
mocracy. Their expulsion from the State Con
vention shows that the Democracy of New York
State are thoroughly Lincolnized.—Eds. Con
federacy.)
Richmond, Sept. 6 —Some few sheets of the
Treasury Notes of the denomination of five
and ten dollars were stolen at Petersburg, en
route to Richmond, but being bunglingly sign
ed, can be readily detected. The parties im
plicated in stealing and counterfeiting the
notes have been arrested, and are now in cus
tody in Richmond.
It is generrlly conceded that the advance of
the Confederates towards Alexandria, Arling
ton and other points towards Washington has
been steady and successful.
Nothing later that is reliable from the ac
tion of our troops over the mountains. Bad
weather has impeded their movements.
There is much speculation here, as to the
destination of Gen. Sidney Johnson. The Hes
sians will find out where he is at the proper
time.
Passengers from Manassas this evening re
port that a courier reached there yesterday
forenoon stating that Shutter’s Hill had been
taken by the Confederates, on Wednesday.—
The Federal loss in killed and wounded was
400, with 300 prisoners. The Confederate loss
was 120 killed and wounded. The report is
given as received.
Col- Wheat, of Louisiana, who fought so
gallantly and was severely wounded at the
battle of Manassas Plains, has arrived here.
He appears well.
Vice-President Stephens has determined to
remain in Richmond during this Fall.
The city is Qill of rumors of engagements
and skirmishes.
Louisville, Sept. 6.—Capt. Gorsuch of the
State Guard has been arrested for removing
the guns of his Company Southward.
Got. Harris, of Tennessee, telegraphs Gov.
Magoffin that Tennesseeans occupy and are
fortifying Hickman and Calk Bluffs (in Ken
tucky, on the bank of the Mississippi.) Harris
disapproves the proceedings.
Gov. Mrgoffin’s Message has been submitted
to a Senate Special Committee, appointed to
consider the matter and report to-morrow.
There are minors that Lincoln’s gunboats
had shelled Columbus, but they can be traced
to ne reliable source.
Philadelphia, Sept. s.—Three ships and a
lot of tobacco, belonging to Southerners, were
seized to-day.
The Abbie Bradford, one of the Sumter’s
prizes, has been re captured by the steam frig
ate Powhatan.
