Missouri with us.
Mr. Todd, of Missouri passed through Mariett-i
yesterday on his way from Montgomery home lie
goes home to raise two regiments for the Confedcr
ate States. He made a short speech, declaring
that Missouri would be with us in 20 days. Com
missioners are now in Montgomery, in consultation
with the Heads of our Government.
A Shrewd Northern Game.
We have received from one of the most promi.
nent citizens of Marietta, and one of the most red
able legal gentleman of our State, a hint as to the
inauguration of one of ths shrewdest dodges ever
attempted by Northern Yankees. Our readers are
aware that, in the present belligerent attitude of
the two sections, all commercial intercourse, accor
ding to the law of nations, is suspended ; there can
be, lawfully, neither new contracts or the fulfil
ment of old ones; and that there can be no collec
tion of debts through the instrumentality of our
Courts. They, (or at least those conversant with
New York commercial matters,) are also aware
that most of the prominent wholesale commercial
houses in that city, have a Southern partner, with
a view to securing the trade of our section. Our
merchants are necessarily indebted to these North
ern houses, from the immense purchases which
they have made, from year to year, and which have
mainly contributed to the success of the Northern
importing and wholesale trade. The loss of South
ern custom would, of itself, eventually bankrupt
them all; but, when to this terrible blow to their
prosperity, brought about by their own connivance
and sustained by their own means, is added the less
of thousands of dolla s of Southern indebtedness,
it is no wonder we hear the crash of almost daily
business failures, and the toppling of once p’.oud
commercial houses.
With these reverses, come dissolutions <>f firms
a division of assets, and a squiring of account-. —
The Southern member, it happens, is always kid cd
out of the firm with the Southern liabilities as Ids
share; and, as he cannot lega.ly recover them, ho
is to throw himself upon his Southern blood, ap
peal to Southern magnanimity, and become a men
dicant at the doors t f Southern merchants, to ben
efit the canting abolitionists who have aided in
bringing about the very results they deplore. To s
is a pretty shrewd trick; but, with all their will
known and acknowledged magnanimity, Soutbe n
merchants will have an eye open for this dodge.—
Old Abe’s people and government—at least wh'-lst
waging his unholy warfare upon our rights—will
never receive from S ufherners tl-.c j uniary
means to stiengthen their bauds, whether whining,
ly importuned by prokssed friends, who v inc with
the borrowed garb of Southern affinity, torturing
it as the Italian mendicant does her borrowed
babe, to inspire fyryt the pijy she d»a's.iiot merit ;
or thrcutnpigly demanded by avowed enemies.

The Grand Jury for the adj mrned term, third
Monday in April, A D. 18G1, and of the Confeder
ate States of America the first, beg leave to make
the fulhiwing report:
We find the several offices of the Cletks of the
Superior and Inferior Court, Ordinary and Sheriff
kept in a neat manner—finding in the Ordinary’s
hands an unexpended balance of School Fund, the
■sum of $390. The Clerk of the Inferior Court has ■
collected $49,31. which should have been paid over
to the County Treasurer.
From the County Treasurer’s report and books
we see that the lax Collector has paid over into
the Treasury sllO4, for County and Jury purposes,
but we are not satisfied that this sum makes a lull
settlement for thn funds collected for these pur
poses.
AVe find the County Treasurer’s books a patein
of neatness, and correct to a cent from the last Sep
tember term to this Court ; aud having reliable in
formation that every voucher and entry of the pres
ent incumbent was scrutinized closely up to that
time without finding any discrepanej, we fee
gratified in having the services ot such an officer.
AVe insert the County Treasurer’s report, which
is as follows :
The total amount paid for Jury purposes during
the administration of the present incumbent was,"
in 1858, $1073 ; in 18.59. $7-53 ; in 1860. $452.
The moneys allotted for the various County i op
poses never having been kept separate by my pre
decessors, and since my connection with the office
of Treasurer, generally a sufficient sum to piv in
discriminately all the dem mds against die County,
1 iiavo hitherto omitted that duty, but submit me

Under existing circumstances what course F.htmJd
the creditors of the Northern States, living in the
South pursue.? The Southern States being now en
gaged in a defensive warfare, cannot, in justice to
. their interests, pay the debts due Northern credit
ors, and at the same time support the Government
iof the Southern Confederacy without incurring
I serious losses. Therefore we would suggest to all
i merchants, tradesmen, and others owing money,
to withhold the pa\nient of every dollar and invest
1 the amounts due in the free States, in lhe bohds of
! the Confederate States, when at the close of the
war these Confederate State bonds can be turned
over to our creditors in the Black Republican
States.— Atlanta Intel.
