If the term slavery was pressed into service ea an additional reproach to us, wo answer that, we regie’, whilst we are unable to remedy au evil forced upon u- Agstnat our will, by arbitrary power, and that to show the sincerity of this regret by our en mity to the system of hierarchy patronage and public diet, for making elaves of freemen. Figures which tell'truth, demonstrate mathe matically that this system of indirect slavery extorts from tho laboring people of England far greater profit than direct slavery has ever produced to Virginia or even West India mas ters. • ' . If your people are both industrious and poor, some such onuses probably .open upon them as have forced anomalous moral charac ter upon the laboring people of England.— But in foot the poverty you insinuate is nei ther to be. found in the exact division of the national debt in the slate of oommerce, in im proved cr useful edifices, or ia.lhe wraith and luxury of individuals. A Boston nabob, it is said,' is able to ex pend in a single entertainment a year’s in come of a good Virginia farmer. As the cause lo which yon ascribe the. malignancy you charge ns with does not exist, it follows that tho effect does neither exist. Consider, sir, the oonacquenccs of academi cal institutions, which leaoh looal prejudices, State enmities, and individual hatred. What will become of the Union and national happi ness, if errors calculated to arm Stats against State with the most deadly moral weapons, are inculcated by seal, rendered doubly danger ous by 'credulity. In one sentiment we agreo. Thattt would be extremely injudicious in me to send a sou in search of instruction to one who believes him to be a wretoh destitute of morals, industry amd religion, when the last of snob prejudices suffice to plant the dagger of a barrister in the heart of a great prince.

The case of l’olirem n Sims charged with inhuman treat nent of Charley Wallace was dismiss I. ELECTION AND RESIGNATION point These are hop.-fol views with the reasons for them. We have bad news by telegraph from Richmond, and the papers of that place also state positively that official information had been received by the President from Gen. Johnston, that K*rhy Smith's'forces were in possession ol Milikeo's Band. Yankee telegrams have also stated very nearly the same thing. If this be to, and if he can hold it, it gives high grounds for hope — If Smith and Price can take and hold all the opposite shore, from Milliken'fl Bend down to New Carthage, they can relieve the garrison at Vick* bnrg, by sending them food .across the river. They cun also cut off cf- fcciua'ly, all reinforeemen.lt anti supplies for Grant.— Bat can Smith ami I rice hold the opposite shore, even if they have it? We fear they cannot, and that the Yankees by land and Hic'r gonbou*s in the river. In a combined fttfack^ can dislolge them. We suppose that M IlikeuV Bend, Tuung’s Point, and New Carthage, are not fortiHe I. If not, there is no chance now to erect fortifications; and the latter two are incapable of being fortified owing to their want of elevation. We don’t count much on help from the opposite shore. The main question then again recurs, and the answer will b.* found in the answer to this question : Cm Hen. Johnston raise the »eige? Can he attack Grant sue* ccjtefuWy and drive him out of his fortifications? Can ho either drive him out of Mississippi cr capture hi.* whole army? These are the important questions, upon which the whole depends. We confeis our ina biUty to answer them satisfactorily ; and while we have strong hopes from the reasons above stated, it is due to candor to say, as we have heretofore said on several occasions, that Vicksburg is in a critical condi tion: and we shall nit be surprised if we hear of its Wednesday's Fight tm Tennessee.

The Register, extra of Sunday, 21st, give* the following : APPROACH I F THE BNEHT, AND POSITION Ot TROOPS. . Night before lost tho Yankees came in Ihe neighborhood of our town. There was picket firiog and skirmishing nearly nil night within a mile or two of town. A little after 7 o'clo,k yesterday morning they made their appear ance in sight of town, on the Tazewell road, with the manifest intention, if they ceald,'. of destroying tho Railroad depots. Ab Boon as they came in range, one of our batteries', on the -Ifili this side of the East. Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Depot opened upon them.— They first replied with Beveral volleys of min- nie halls, after whioh, having got their artil- cry into position they commenced firing shot and shell. Another one of our batteries soon commenced firing from' the hill nearly oppo site tbe East Tennessee end Virginia Railroad D ipot, and in a very short time another bat tery was placed in position and opened upon them, on the high hill in East Knoxville.— Each of our three batteries consisted of two guns Tho battery on the hill opposite the East Tennessee and Georgia Railroad Depot was slightly protooted by a shallow ditch and a fow cotton balsa. The other two batteries had no artificial protoation whatever. The enemy had two pieees of artillery— and about six hundred infantry and a hundred aavuiry only were ia sight at one time.-— There are various estimates of their whole uumlxir. A gentleman who hod the best op portunity to see all of them as they remsiaed at his house below town some considerable time, informs us they had three thousand men. Most persons estimate their number at two ihousand. The firing of the batteries was kept up be- weon one and two hours quite briskly. A considerable number of shell fell in the town, hut very few exploded, and little or no injury was done to any of tho buildings. We heard of no person being strupk in town except one, citizen by a spent minnie ball which barely left its mark. At tho batteries we unler • stand we had ia all seven wounded—five of them mortally. We are altogether unable to say what was the enemy’s loss. We have heard it variously estimated at from five to thirty. Among them is said to be one Colonel. THB FEDERAL FOKOE. The enemy’s force* were commanded by Col. Win. P. Sanders, an aid ot Gen. Burnside. It consisted of ihe 1st East Tennessee regiment; 112th Illinois, 1st Kentucky,. 44th, 2d snd7ih Ohio regiments. THT CONFEDERATE FOKOE. Our forces were commanded by Col. Trigg, and consisted of the 6th and 7th Florida, seme detailed men from tbe Quartermaster's and Commissary Departments/ and a .large number of citizens. Very soon alter the enemy were repulsed and had retired! considerable reinforcements arrived from Loudon and other points. GALLANT CONDUCT or A OEOROIA BATTERY, The Register of the 24lh says: In our accounts of tbe defense of Knoxville from the Yankee raiders, we uninlenBionally omitted to notice the daring conduct of. and efficient service rendered by Copt. Wyly’a Georgia battery. This battery is composed principally of young men from Atlanta, Ga., and s attached to Major Leyden’s Battalion. On Friday they had mode a forced march from this city, over rough roads, to Island Ford, a dis* tanCe of 25 miles. Here a courier overtook the Battalion with a requisition for a battery to re> turn to Knoxville. Wyly’sbattery was selected aud, jaded and fatigued as were both men and horses, they retraced their steps with inch ..ex pedition as toreacb the vicinity of the city by seven o’clock. Saturday morning. Here they tonnd a large force of cavalry and infantry drawn up inline of battle between them and the city. Several officers iu the rear politely saluted the battery with their awbrds,and Cspt.-Wyly- was-nt n leas to know whether they were, friends or foes. In bis emergency, a young man of hio company drew a white handkerchief, and rode boldly «p to the officers mentioned, sndsscer. tsined that they were the raiders. ilJpon com municating tbe fact to (he Captain, bo immedi ately placed his guns in position, and issued or ders as if for attack. This threw tho enemy’s lines into momentary confusion, taking advan tage of which the gun's were timbered and. thp . sttery dashed through them and reached the city in Bafely, notwithstanding they were fired upon by'oar pickets, whomistonk them, ia their headlong, entree, for the enemy. This feat hu been pronounced by. experienced military men to be one among tbe most daring, skillful and successful of the war. • On reaching the cito and reporting to the Chief of Artillery, the battery was immediately assigned a position, and. commenced action, firing the first and last gun of the engagement, snd sustaining ihe principal part of tbe loss that resulted. The following are the casualties: Corn’l Thoa. Caldwell, mortally wounded— since dead. Briv. W R. Hodaon, supposed mortally wound ed—leg shot off. Priv. Rob’t Fariow, wounded in let! arm by a minio ball. Priv. Turnidge, wounded in the foot by a minie ball. Atter tbe battle, the Yankee commander'sent his respects to Captain Wyly, by n paroled pris oner, with . the complimentary remark that his battery had done the best firing he ever saw'. - AU honor to gallant Captain Wyly and his brave men. The citizens of Koxvillc owe him s debt of gratitude that cannot eaeily'be can celled.

We have learned all the j.irueularsol-this cold-blooded and inhuman murder ot one ot our most estimable citizens by the East Tennessee lories and ; their allies, the Yankee*. Dr. Baker’s house is about tea miles below Knoxville, on the main Western road. On Friday slternoon laet he told his wife and family he could do no good staying st home, and he- ISssauul ba wtnnld >AnM tin tO tOWII WuPM i- his FSrii'when i Yankee in the house but her hatband, and if they would cease firing he would surrender—they continued tiring snd Doctor Baker came to the window once or twice and told: them there was no man ia the house but himself, and if they would eeaSe firing; he woold sirrender. Bat whenever he presented himself at: tho window, they fired on him, and be returned the fire with his pistol. In a few minutes a number of them broke open the lower doors sod entered the house, and commenced firing through tho ceiling luto the room where Dr. Baker and his family were. They then went up tne stairway and demand ed that the men should come out nnd surren der. Mrs. Baker came out and told them there was no man in the honse exeept Dr. Baker, nnd if they wraid not lire upon him he would come out, Tksy ordered bar to go away from the door or they would shoot her.' Dr. Baker than pulled his wife in the room nnd threw tho door open. They fired upon him with their guns nnd he returned Ihe fire with his pistols. The Yankees present having ex hausted their ammui ition, threw their guns with fixed bayonets at htm—he throwing the guns back at them. A number «f Yankee reinforcements then came up with loaded guns' and fired a volley at him, inflicting two mor tal woun Is. Dr. B. said to his wife, “They have killed mo,” and fell; his wife, in endeav “ring to support him, fell with him. The Yankees then entered the room—one of them who had no bayonet on his gun, jobbed him in the mouth with tha muzzle of his gun— another run hb bayonet through his cheek— another struck him on the head—one ruffian pushed Mrs. Baker aside from her husband with his bayonet. Dr. Baker asked to be turned on his side, and asked for water. After he drank, ho ob served to the crowd of- Yankees around him that they were a cowardly set of scoundrels, so many of them to assault and murder ono man. Two of the Yankeei were dangerously if net mortally wounded. They wont on to tho next house and had tbeir wounds dressed, nod said Dr. Baker was tbe g'tmcsl man they oversaw. Dr. Baker was one of the earliest of our citizens to espouse the onuso of the South, and was an rrdent motasionist from the be ginning. Wo have no doubt some renegade tory from East Tenuosses had given the Yan kee* full information about Dr. Baker's sen timents snd his activity in the cause of the South, and that they intruded to seitj upou some pretence to murder him. After the cowardly ecouudrele . hail mur dered her. husband, t tcy co.mncnceJ robbing, his wifeof her jewelry, and carried off every thing thoy could tint! of value that was easy to be concealed: Among other things they look a breast pin cootaiaiag n miniature likeness of Dr. Baker ret in gold. 33(IMITBiTIE'lY. The Knoxville Register of the 24th publishes the following items: Mr. Editor:—In your notice of Capt. Wyly this morning, you do injustice tp the Summit Battery. The first and last gun was fired uy the Summit Batiory, aud it was in the meat exposed position of nil others. It was here that Mc- Clnng was killed, and received unflinchingly the main fire ot the enemy. Don't suppose that I detract from Capt. Wyly. I do not. Ho covered himself all over with glee ry, and he and his men deserve all praise. Na poleon never performed more promptly and gal'-' iantly any military, movemont than did this chivalrous officer act in a most critical emergen cy, bringing empty guns through the enemy's lines. I aaw all of which I write. CITIZEN. ^SuThe Yankees remarked at Strawberry Plains that they did not know cnrininlv lhat they bad hilled any-person in East Tennessee except Dr. Harvey Baker. They said they ex pected to be captured before they got out o’ 'he county, but thought they had paroled as ■■to:,* prisoners as they had men, and therefore if tHh'y were captered they would soon be txchang J for tho game number of our men they had captured and paroled. The Surgeon who hid in charge a wounded Federal officer (bince dead) iu ibis vicinity, dropped n letter written from Lex ington June 7th, in which it is said that Burn- ai4s has left Kentuoky for Washington with* his forces. This motewefrr is oautied by the demonstration of our forces against Pennsyl vania. . The letter should bo closely scru tinized. SaS‘ We learn from a citizen who was in Ihe fight at Strawberry Plains, that we had but eighty effective men there belonging to the array; that some of Ihe persons from the hospital who were siok eatno out and fought os long os they could. The enemy, it is thought, had .from- fifteen hundred to two thousand men at this plaoe. They entirely surrounded the village. Our aitillery-men' fought very gallantly, but eighty men were not able to contend against fifteen hundred or two thousand. The enemy paroled ono hun dred and thirty prisoners, including the sick at the hospital, Among those deserving hon orable mention are Capt il K Scott and Dr Hamilton, tbe former from Kentucky and the latter from South Carolina. ESCAPE OF 'i HE YANKEE RAIDERS. The Register of the 25th rays: A courier arrived in Ibia city yesterday morn- log, bringing information that the Yankee raid- era were safe across the mountains. They were so closely pnrsned by Col. Scott, that they burn ed their artillery carriages, and'left tbo cannn, and nearly all their baggege, but lost hut few prisoners. They crossed on the evening ol the 22d, at Childcr’s Gap. Captain Scott was killed in a skirmish on Powell’s river. EASTTEFN A VA.RAILROAD. We have seen a letter from President Brenner of this road,'dated Monday, which aayB that the trams will run on mail achcduFe daily from Moaay .Creek to Bristol and back—leaving Moa- ay Creek at 21 o’clOck P. M. and arriving at Bristol at II. Returning They w ill leave Bristol 9 P. M. and arriving at Mossy Creek at 6 A. M. No arrangements at present, owing to the do! strdciion of the bridgea, and the tact that the rolling mock is alt on.fhe other endof tho fold, Cache made;.ior transporting passengers from this city by rail to' Mossy Creek. Wo trust, however, that aomo enterprising person will g« t tip a stage line between the two points, that travel and the mails may be at once resumed over the route. dam rasa done by Tna enemy. The Yankeo raiders cut the telegraph wires and tore up a considerable portion of tbe East Tennessee St Virginia Riilroid. At last ac* counts they had destroyed the bridges across Flat Creek and other small bridges between this and Strawberry- Plaint. The stole several horses in the immediate neighborhood of Kuox* vill and forced several slaves to go with them. We suppose a good many others have joined them voluntarily,hut we have not as yet heard oi any cases of the kind. Sharp Praetlee. Among Blorlintte linn -iters—A Basest Caught In Ailnato. The Richmond Examiner, ol the 24th inat. has the following racy paragraph: SouiO days since a blockade runner, named Richard N. Brown, took into bis financial confi dence a partner, sad loaded a vessel in Bahi* more with good* for Richmond. While Brown was basted ekewhere, his partner left Baltimore with the vearel .and cargo, and, rushing tbo gooda to nicbmoud, fold them here at an cnor mous sacrifice, io advance of Brown’s arrival, aud started off further'South with tho hinds. On Brown's arrival, several days since, he in stituted a search among the auction, and comrais*- tion houses, and succeeded in recognizing and laying ciaim.to a portion of his gooda.

C ARD. n*ving ia n recent notice on the subject of LOCAL DSFEKSK end SPECIAL SERVICE, published that I had been "cutrouted by the Secretary of War with au thority to raise and organic a force for the defense of XTppcr Georgia acnin«i the invasions of the enemy,** and invoking the citizen* to enroll themselves at ouce into companies, and to aend riio their master rolls to be fortrat ded.to the Secretary of War, I find in a pro clamation jnftt issued hy ihe Governor of Georgia, hon-ing date the 93d June instant, the following para graph : * < *The President, however, having called on me to or ganise' the troops who volunteer, under the acts of Con gress. io this State, has thought proper to say, through the Secretary of War, that ho places the execution of tho ’organisation entirety nndcr my supervision and control. For the purpose of maintaining order and sys tem tn thn mganimion. and that I may know when the fill! number required has been raised, it becomes ne cessary that all companies, battalions and regimen's which have lately organised and tendered to the Presi dent or to any Confederate officer for local th tense in this State, as well as hereafter to be orgbuiced, report to mo witheut delay.” . Now, if the Maieinent? above referred to as made re spectively by myself and by Ilia Excellency the Gover nor, are each entitled to credit, then it is obvious, that the Secretary^of War has placed us in couflict by eon- forring the same authority and imposing the same duty upon two separate and distinct agents. Justice to the Secretary of U'ar demands that he be relieved from the commis."ion of such a blunder. A bri*. f and simple statement will accomplish that object. That the Secretary of War in the powers committed to G«*ver or Rrown in the organization of this force for local defeuse, never intended to wrest from me sim ilar authority previously, conferred, 1 have simply to refer to the lUHtrumcnt itself under which the Gover nor claims .the power, and in which i have the best reason to know, th*exception is ecrpresslyraade by the Secretary, aud Hia Excellency duly advised that author- . it.v to rata and organise a force for local defense in Georgia had already been entrusted to another and would rot now be revoked. With this explanation and having before me at this this mrme.nt the original authority of the Secretary, as well as hia written instruction, which after several con ferences on the f object, he himself t laced in my hands; I feeUconfideni that the misconception as to author ity rests not w‘4h ino. and I therefore repeat and earn estly reiterate the call previously made and requett, as I cannot ‘•require,”*11 tuch organization* as “well those heretofore' formed As those hereafter to be form ed to report immediately,” (nof) “to tbe Adjutant and Inspector General of this Slate,” but to me and I will promptly forward their musior rolls, to the Secretary, of War. But a« the Governor of Georgia in the latter part of hia Proclamation has thought proper toinvitet-e “cor dial co-operation and assistance on the part of all Con federate officers in the State, at harmonv between the State and Confedera'e officers is essential to success in tbe prompt formation of the organisation required by the President,” and especially aa I have no other inter est in this movement than a sincere desiro to do all in uiy power to defend my native .State against the incur sions of the enemy; m order therefore that there may be no fon'flict <tetweon the Governor’s agents nod my self in our mutual efforts to effect the same object 1 here make the announcement that the portions of Georgia which I proposed to the Secretary of War more particularly to endeavor to protect, was that part of the territory of the Stale embraced by the Woutern Sc AllanUe, and Rome Railroads, extending from Atlan ta to the Tennessee and Alabama lines, and that It is only the citizens of that section or who msy by railway facilities be brought to defend that section, of whom 1 K ctto forward organizations rward me therefore your muster rolls promptly to Carters ville.
