nature r.f the country will admit of it, or whether
he can cross Big Black with an .array, at any othe r
point than near Id ward’s depot, are question? we can
not answer, because we have teen unable to find any
one who can giro ns complete information on these
points. *lt is however believed l>y * seine*gentlemen in
this city who.were in the army av Victahurq, that bis
retreat can be accomplished, and that'he can cross
Big Black with his army hear its month. Tf this be so
Grant may escape with the remnant of his army. Still
we hare strong hopes of cantnring the whole of Grant’s
forces before all is over in this great attack on the Gi-

A Brave Boy tons Fallen. .
The subject of this brief notice, Aiqkmoke
T. W. Bass, was Ihn youngest child of John
and Mary E. Bass, of Newton county. He was
at school iuBowdon when the warcommcnoed,
and though a more boy, he could scarcely be
restrained from going with an older .brother
into tbe first Oeorgia regiment.
Soon after getting home, in the summer of
18fil, he volunteered in Capt. Jefferson Lunar’s
company, whioh was afterwards attached to
Cobb’s Legion. While at Yorktown, he had a
aevnre spell of ljplioi4 ffiier. Alter Jhai he
hk«! but little sickness, «u\d was always at his
post, ready for duty. The Legion was under
a heavy fire in the battles around Richmond
but was not permitted to charge tho enemy —
He heroically endured the fatigues and hard
ships of the march into Maryland, and was
always eager (o ecccunter the foe. On the
day of the battle nt Crampton’s Gap, in whieh
Ihe Legion aiff red so terribly, and Sb Col.
Lamar.was killed, he was ordered to guard
commissary stores,. and was deprived of the
pleasure of going .into the engagement with
bis company. After that battle he was trans
forms to Company B, 35th Ga., (bat he might
bo with Ms neighbors and many intimate
friends. His transfer was regretted by his
officers and the roembors of hia company. The
officers in the Lamar Infantry spoke highly of
him as an exc llent eoldicr. Many of the
company said they never would forget Algie
Bare for his kindness to them while sick; that
he would rise at midnight to wait on them and
minister to their wants, and would walk four
or five miles at any time to obtain fruit for
then). Ilia kind and sympathizing heart was
ever ready to relieve the suffering and pro
mote their comfort. In the battle of Froder-
ieksburg, on tbe 13th ot December last, the
35th Ga., noted a gallant and conspicuous part.
In a charge on the enemy, Algie advanc'd far
ahead of his regiment, and his officer* and
company said there was no druhi ho killed a
Yankee Colonel. When ihe battle was over,
his Captain sent for him, and cemplimeuted
him highly for his bravery and gallantry on
the field, and remarked that heehould ccusid
or him his right band man. On Sunday morn
lug, the 3d inti., while charging the formida
ble fortifications of the enemy near Chancel-
lorsville, which were captured by his regiment,
he was shot through the head and died in
stantly. HU Captain wrote that he fell atbis
post, nobljf ditcharging his duty; that he was
a brave boy and a good soldier, and his death
was deeply regretted by alL _ Hia first Lieu
tenant, in writing of him. said Algie hid to
dwioguirhed himself that he wav laiueuted
not only by hUc -mpany, but by the' wboli
regiment. He went, into serrire ahunt Ihe
first of August, ISfii, and has never been
home ot had n furlough. Generous, brave,
and always prompt to duly, he w. n the respect
and admiration of bis comrades and officers
It is a severe sfflictioiHo his parents to lose a
son so yiiing and noble hearted, f o buoyant
with hope and promte. and-so-brarc and val
iant. But R is eonsoliog foe them to think
they havo laid a noble sacrifice on the altar of
freedom; that he fell valiantly contending for
the, rights of our country, . ^

Mr. Clement L. ValUndighsiii is a pro-flave

His politini aro us bad as can tic; il there were

inhuman views wiih regard to political quesv

fendeie. But our Federal and State Constitu

patriotic speeches, as grounds of infliction,.be
yond Ihe infliction.of the speeches themselves,
nnd then the hearer suffers the penalty, not the
speaker. So we don’t exactly see h*ov Mr. V.

We-ugrec tally with Gen. Rurnside that Val.

Dixie," the President is said.to suggest ps an
alternative, lint it is the worst joke Mr. l.in-
enln lias yet made. They don’t trouble them,
selves to try hud eentenco opposition orators

must lie aware that any person making just
speeches in Dixie against the War of Se
cession as ' ha makes tin our.eide against the
War lor the Union, could not live-out the first
day’s experiment. He would he shot by the
first rebel that could oblain a musket, and (bat
' would lie ilir end of him. Sending Copperheads
down to Jefftlnm, where they have speeches on
ly nn the side of “the powers that lie," would
sot a dozen such longues wagging for eveiy one

man-like.

The arrest of Vatland gham, by Gen. Bum-
side, has caused some disturbance in the minds
ol a lew over-nice men ot lawyer-like notiona,
who cannot endure anything that ia not backed
by a precedent. The secession sympathizers of
■lie North have taken the opportunity to make
another concerted attempt to alarm the aenrihil-
ities of the people and scare them into ihe belief
that President Lincofn is waging this avar not
for the purpose ot conqneringthe South—which
by the way, they have always heretofore object
ed to—but ot trampling on the liberties of the
North. The most considerable of- these mani
festations, and in fact the only public assent
hlage, was the Vallandigham meeting in New
Yoik city, night before last. A crowd of seve
ral hundred boys and men came together in
Union Square, and by the aid of music several
hundred -citizens were stopped in they way
