WEDNESDAY, OCT. 23, 1861.
To C'orreSj ondents.
A few words to those who write articles
which thev wish to appear in our columns :
It vou write anything of /oca/ interest only,
let it be, <ery short ; we cannot spare the space
in ..nr paper and pay our printers for setting
up a long article, when we know that only a
few of vur readers will take any interest in
it.
When vou write anything of general inter
es*. make it <i- short as possible. Strikeout all
amplifications. Don’t hang on and hang on,
and spin it out and spin it out, but gather up
voitr burning thoughts into a focus, and give
the strong points in a few words. Don’t send
n ■ a long article.
If you are going to become offended, if we
decline to publish your communication, don’t
send it to us. We don’t want to offend you,
and we had rather take the chances of miss
ing a good article than of giving offense.
Don’t ask us to return your communication
if it is rejected. Save the five cent piece you
would enclose for us to prepay postage on re
turning it. If you have any doubt about our
publishing it, keep a copy. We positively
have not time to return articles we decline to
publish.
We receive a large number of attempts at
poetry. Nine-tenths of these we decline. —
Very few persons who attempt to write poetry
can be convinced that their productions are
sorry. Let all your first attempts at poetry
be submitted to some one of well-known
scholarship and literary attainments, before
offering them to the press. ts
Ked Mark Again.
We are sending out to all our daily subscri
bers, whose time expires before the Ist No
vember a back number of our paper, with a
<ro«j mark, and the day on which their sub
scription terminates, entered on the margin
of the paper with a red pencil. Let all who
wish to continue renew in time. We cannot
send out our paper without the money in
advance. Advertising is almost nominal,
and we live and are able to publish our paper
almost from subscriptions alone.
And let all who can, send us S 3 in advance
for a year's subscription. It will cost them
less and be of very great advantage to us.—
The time and labor of re entering monthly
subscriptions is a daily tax on us, while some
other portion of our business is suffering for
want of our attention.
The Eadies’ Soldiers’ Belief Society
Will meet at the Masonic Hall on Thursday
morning, at 9 o'clock. A full meeting is re
quested- The soldiers have enlisted for the

more than a dozen were at the regular meet
ing. All the members who wish their names
U remain upon the books must attend the raeet
in-j*, sad assist in the work. A few members
cannot -io all. The party is postponed.

Appointment.
We learn that Mr. Isaac E. Bartlett, of this
city, has been appointed, by Judge Starnes,
Confederate Tax Collector for Fulton and De-
Kalb •min ties.

The Wright Legion.
At an election held at Camp Kirkpatrick on
Thursday last, Capt. Lewis J. Parr, of the “ Jo
Thompson Artillery,” was elected Major by a
very flattering vote. The selection of Maj.
Parr we regard as being eminently proper,
both on account of his fitness for the position
and his indefatigable efforts in behalf of the
speedy formation of the Legion, which we
learn is now fully organized and ready, as
soon as furnished with arms, to repair to the
scene of action.
We are promised, and will give to our read
ers ere long, the names of the Officers and Pri
vates composing the Legion, together with a
diagram of their present Encampment.

The “ Intelligencer ”
Is respectfully informed that we take no
'pleasure making “ capital ” out of our criti
cisms on its telegraphic correspondence. Our
remarks were invited—made necessary by its
own, in which, though the “ Confederacy ” was
not named, everybody understood we were dis
paragingly alluded to. Come, now; we will
make no such criticisms in future, if you will
not first render them necessary and just on our
part.
Incendiarism.
We learn, by a private letter, that the resi
dence and furniture of Col. John Hinton, of
Newton county, were entirely consumed by
fire last week : also, the new Methodist church
—a neat and well-furnished house of worship,
near Brick Store, in the same county. Both
fires are supposed to be the work of incendia
ries. “ Look out for the engine when the whis
tle blows.”
Col. Matt. Ward.
The remains of Col. Ward passed through
here Monday. They will be carried to Nash
ville and deposited in a vault, where they
will remain till the Red River becomes navi
gable, when they will be sent home to Texas
for interment. He was a good man, beloved
by the people among whom he lived. His
charac'er was pure and above reproach.
Sequestration.
What is our Sequestration Agent doing ? I
understand that in addition to many persons
who have already gone home with their effects
or the proceeds of the sale thereof, two Yankees
left here Ibis morning. Other parsons are daily
making arrangements to leave with what they
can take off, ami nothing hitherto has been
done to prevent it. ATLANTA.
