Heavy and solemn,
A cloudy column.
Through the green plain they marching come!
Measureless spread liken table dread.

And fettcretl they stand at tin* stark eommand,
And the warriors, silent, halt *
Troud in the blush of in..ruing slowing.
What on the hill top shines iti flowing ?
“Sec you the focman's banners waving ?”
“We see the forman's hnnners waving!”
“God he with your children and wifi*!*’
Hark ! the music—the trump mid life—
Hew they ring through the ranks, which *\ey
rouse to the s rite !
Thrilling they sound, with then glorious tone,
Thrilling they g«» through the marrow and bone!
Brothers, God grant, when this life is o’er,
In the life to come that we meet once more!
See the smoke how the lightning is cleaving asun
dor!
Ilark ! the guns, oral on peal, how they boom in
their thunder!
From host to host, with kindling sound.
The shouted signal circles round.
Freer already breathes the breath;

Written on n visit to the Parade (Sround, after
the departure of the “ 1’naip Artillery ”
This afternoon we wandered out,
With thoughts m» light and gay;—
But soon our lienits grew sad, fur wo
Kemeinhcred those away.
Before wo were a .varo of it,
Wc StlKY.l UJKUl the sp«»t.
Where wc had spent such happy hours
With those who re ne’er forgot.
We looked around—then turned way—
WecoulJ not linger there,
Where everything reminded us
Of those wo held so ilear.
Our old l'arade Ground—once so gay—
Is lonely now and drear;
For nh ! no merry voices fall
Upon our list'tiing car.
Those graceful forms are now no more
Seen at their evening drill;
We murmured sadly*—“ They are gone!”
Then all again was still.
May God he with them ns they go
To battle for the light :
And when their freedom's won, may they
Return with laurels bright.

Three T/ioutand Pain of the Best
NEUK0 SHOES IK TUE WORLD!
Made ly MtCletkey Doyli.
W K will keep a good assortment
these at tho store ol Messrs. Pit- ,
ner, England ti Freeman,in Athens, where its History and Character, ’ dwells at
Mr. AfcCleakey will be found at all times, g rea t length upon the habits, tactics
ready to wait upon customers. Wo «*'! | an d peculiarities of those vast armies
of rats whose predatory excursions
have been famous since the day when
the Bishop of Rhcims was devoured in
his castle. In all “rat armies,” the
historian in question tills us, “the
wounded and the dull from pain and
sickness give no trouble. They cure
all maladies and wounds by devouring
the sick; and, although they never
leave their dead and wounded upon
the battle-field, they never carry them
olT except in their greedy maws.”
The belligerent Yankee imitates the
rat as far as his habits of life permit
He does not, it is true, devour the dead
had they been slain by their husbands,
brothers and sons, than had they fallen
into the hands of that merciless army,
of whom there are two cages full of
unwounded specimens now in this city.
The unparalleled and unfeeling neg
lect of the Yankee survivors of the late
races at E-ull Run have lelt upon our
hands many hundreds of these wound
ed ruffians. Like broken-winged hawks,
they have b 'en “brought down” by the
defenders of our firesides, and arc now
dependent for food and medical at
tendance upon the mercy of those
whose lives, libeity, honor and proper
ty they came to destroy, lltose “reb
els,” for whom they brought ‘handcufis’
and ‘baiters,’ are now ministering to
thetr comforts as if they were friends
and brethren. Those fair and noble
women, to whose intended dishonour
and brutal violation they alluded in
their private letters in terms too beastly
for recital, are now performing angelic
acts of hi inanity by many a wounded
reprobates bedside. Those children,
even, to whose “nursery and play
grounds” the Tribune said the “Grand
Army” was to “introduce” that “grim
wolf Fanrine,” arc now rivaling their
noble moihers in deeds of mercy to the
wounded robbers. That city, which
was the “nest of the rebels, was to be
pillaged, sacked and laid waste,” is
now contributing thousands of dollars
to the comfort of the very men who, on
the 21st of July last, were on their way
to Richm md with the most fiendish
and inhuman designs.
As far as the wounded soldiers of
that army of pillaging, sensual, brutal
invaders ire concerned, how striking
is the contrast between the treatment
which they received from their brother
robbers and ruffians, and that they now
get from their intended victims. Their
associate* not only disgracefully de
serted them, but carried with them the
ambulances and comforts provided for
their especial care.
They left them to die upon the bat
tle-field (nd, since the memorable day
at Manassas, which proved that the
race was to the swift, although the bat
tle was jn/to the strong,” not one voice
of compassionate interest has been
heard at the North for the hundreds of
Yankee soldiers now languishing in our
hospitals
When that old horse-thief and mur
derer, John Brown, lay wounded at
Charlestown, hundreds of Abolition
blues a id brimstones, in petticoats,
begged t d be allowed to nurse the felon.
Now, hewever, that Richmond, Char-
lottesvill i and other Virginia cities and
to wns ar: filled with wounded Northern
soldiers, we hear nothing of that hu
manity which was so blatant when a
blood-stained criminal was awaiting
his doom in Jefferson. That fanaticism
which diove the “Grand Atmy” torth
upon ou; 1 bayonets now coldly leaves
them tc the well-known mercy of a
noble people whom they came to des
troy.
If the wounded wretches in question
are not dead to every feeling of grati
tude, this lesson will not be lost upon
them. Whilst, however, we are lav
ishing cerv species of kindness upon
the woinded Yankee prisoners, the
press o' the North arc inciting other
robbers tnd ruffians to invade us again
by monstrous fabrications about our
horrible treatment of the wounded
whom the “Grand Army” so disgrace
fully deserted.
your feelings may be one way or an
other in reference to the parties of the
country ; but we ask yon to interfere as
a Government, according to the Con
stitution. Of course we want your
sympathy, and your regard, and your
respect; but we ask your interference
on constitutional grounds.

and oppressed people, who are strug
gling for their independence without
arms. If we had ten thousand stand
ofrirms and ammunition when the con
test commenced, wc should have asked
no further assistance. We have not
got them. We are a rural people ; we
have villages and small towns—no
large cities. Our population is homo
geneous, industrious, frugal, brave, in
dependent; but harmless and power
less, and rode over by usurpers.
You maj be too late in coming to
our relief, or you may not'eome at all,
though I do not doubt that you will
come; they may trample us under foot;
they may convert our plains into grave
yards, and the caves of our mountains
into sepulchres; but they will never
take us out of this Union, or make us
a land of slaves—no, never. We in
tend to stand as firm as adamant, and
as unyielding as our own majestic
mountains that surround us. Yes, we
will profit by their example, resting
immovably upon their basis. We will
stand as long as we can ; and if we
are overpowered and liberty shall be
driven from the land, ve intend before
it departs to take the flag of our coun
try, with a stalwart arm and a patriotic
heart, and an honest tread, and place
it upon the summit ot the loftiest and
most majestic mountain. We intend
to plant it there and leave it to indicate
to the inquirer who may come in after
times, the spot where the Goddess of
Liberty lingered and wept for the last
time, before site took her flight from a
people once prosperous, free and hap-

The Rebellion cannot Triumph.—
My faith is strong, based on the eternal
principles of right, that a thing so mon
strously wrong as this rebellion is can
not triumph. Can we submit to it?—
Can bleeding justice submit to it? Is
the Senate, are the American people
prepared to give up the graves of Wash
ington and Jackson to be encircled and
governed and controlled by a combi
nation of traitors and rebels? I say
let the battle go on—it is freedom’s
cause—until the stars and stripes (God
bless them) shall again be unfurled
upon every cross road, and from every
house top, throughout the Confederacy,
North and South. Let the Union be
reinstated, let the laws be enforced, let
the constitution be supreme.
all others, about which so much noise
and talk has been made, and is the
only one which can be tlependetl on.
The dreaded washing day, which has
turned so many amiable and lovely
wives into frights and termagants; and
which is the curse of good ant. domes
tic husbands, will now be annihilated
and a clean house and a comfortable
dinner, may be expected on washing
day:
TIIE RECEIPT.
Directions.—Take five quaits of soft
water, add a half gallon of lime water,
one pint and a half of soft soap, half a
pound of hard soap, and two table
spoon fulls of sal soda.
Method oj Washing.—Soak the
clothes over night. When the above
mixture is at boiling heat, put in the
clothes that have been soaked, rubbing
those parts with a little soap that are
usually soiled. Boil them one hour,
then take them out and drain them,
the enterprising propreifors. The
piece has not as yet been tried, but from
its appearance, there can he np doubt
that it will prove a most efficient weap
on for either field or privateering pur
poses, or in a fortification. It is in
tended for rapid firing, and can be
moved very quickly from place to place.
The piece is at the work shop, foot
of Hasell street, and open to the ex
amination of fhe public. It will more
than repay a visit.
We also witnessed in successful op
eration, a percusion cap making ma
chine, capable of turning out from 25,-
000 too 35,000 caps daily. This ma
chine was invented by that skillful
draughtsman and master mechanic, Mr.
Taylor, one of the proprietors. Al
though simple in its operation, much
thought and patient perseverance was
requisite to bring all its nice com
binations to work with accuracy and
facility.
But the necessities of the State de
manded it. Mr. Taylor was furnished
by Col. Manigault, Chief of the Ordi
nance department, with a strip of cop
per, a cap and a star cut from the
copper to show how the caps were
made.
Mr. Taylor immediately set to work
ar.d in less than a month’s time, the
machine was in operation.
The copper is cut into strips of the
proper width and then passed through
rollers which form the stars. From

nnse them thoroughly in warm water, , h are carried fotward to the die
then rinse them m ind.go water as usu-1 ^ m J e intQ a cap We would ad _

The same water will do for three
assorted lots of clothes. The best and
finest things should be done first—the
course and dirtiest last.

made as follows: Take two table

Andy Johnson aud East Tennessee.
From the repoit of the Cincinnati
Gazette of the 3d inst., we take the
following extracts from a speech by-
Andy Johnson in the Federal Senate
since the battle of the 21st ult. It
shows the spirit of the factionists of
East Tennessee, anil especially of their
leader, the speaker. He and they are
more bitterly opposed to peace and a
recognition of the Sjuthern Confeder
acy than even the Northern Republi
cans, and for obvious reasons :
Tiie Oppressed Union Men in Ten
nessee.—Since I left home, having
only one way to leave the State, through
two or three passes through Cumber
land Gap, I have been advised that
they had even sent their armies to
blockade these passes in the mountain,
as they say, to prevent Johnson from
returning; with arras and munitions to
place in the hands of the people, to
vindicate their right, repel invasion,
and put down domestic insurrection
and rebellion. Yes, sir, there they
stand in arms, environing a population
of three hundred and twenty-five thous
and loyal, brave, patriotic and unsub
dued people ; but yet powerless, and
not in a condition to vindicate their
rights. Hence, I come to the Govern
ment, and I do not ask it as a suppli
ant, but I demand it as a constitutional
right, that you give us protection, give
us arms and munitions; and if they
cannot be got there in any other way,
to take them there with an invading
army, and deliver the people from the
oppression to which they are now sub
jugated. We claim to be the State.—
The other divisions may have seceded
and gone of!; and if this Government
will stand by and permit those portions
of the State to go off, and not enforce
tbe laws and protect the loyal citizens
there, we cannot help it; but we will
still claim to be the State, and if two
thirds have fallen off, or have been
sunk by an earthquake, it does not
change our relation to this Govern
ment.
If the Government will let them go
and not give us protection, the fault is
not ours; but if you will give us pro
tection we in'end to stand as a State
as a part of this Confederacy, holding
to the flag that was borne by Wash
ington through a seven years’ struggle
for independence and separation from
the mother country. We demand it
according to law; we demand it upon
the guarantees of the Constitution.—
You are bound to guarantee to us
republican form of government, and we
ask it as a constitutional right. We do
not ask you to interfere as a party, as

That any such despotism as that
launched forth in this programme will
be set up in this metropolis we do not
fear. The whole aflair is one of those
weak inventions of the enemies of their
country which we know how to appre
ciate and dispisc. If there are parties
in the city who think they can inaugu
rate the games of Robesperre and his

shall stand by the press and its privi

the importance of the institution with
which we are associated.
The commencement of such a reign of
terror as the Abolitionists who have is
sued this placard propose to establish
will be far oflfin the future. We know
too much of the tactics of the times to
be alarmed at such ridiculous threats,
and we are quite certain that the friends
of peace have only to stand firmly
against the Abolitionists to defy a
thousand similar bulletins. The people

A line of steamers, intended to run
between Liverpool and Charleston, S.
C., is nearly ready; the first vessel is
advertised in the Liverpool papers to
leave August 15th (th'c time has since
been extended, we believe, to Septem
ber 15th,) and when our informant
left, it was actually loading with these
goods. How they are to elude the
blockade is not stated ; but it is proba
ble that the Southerners who have been
unsparing in their promises of direct
trade, and have depicted its advanta
ges to Eng ishmen in glowing colors,
expect aid from thence to insure the
safe carriage and delivery of their pui-
chases. Whether these anticipations
are well grounded or not, they corres
pond with the very sanguine expecta
tions of Southern men in other respects.
At any rate, goods to the amount of a
million and a halt ot dollars have been
purchased there by Southern merchants
for cash, and a portion of them arc
loading in swift sailing steamers, by
which means they may perhaps expect
to run the blockade, if the privilege of
going in under British guns is denied
them.—JVfte York S/toe and feather

Something Rich.
Simon Cameron, Secretary of War
cf the United States has been singular-
'y exercised about the body of bis de
ceased brother, Col. Cameron, of the
New York Volunteers, killed at Ma
nassas. Actuated by a silly pride
about addressing Gen. Johnston on the
subject in the latter’s proper official
capacity, just as the British authorities
were towards our Washington, he has
resorted to every device to secure this
object. A day or two ago, a flag of
truce came to our pickets, and sent in
the following to Col. J. E. B. Stuart, of
the Cavalry, commanding at Fairfax
Court House :

To tiie Fublic :
Under an appointment made by our
tellow-citizens, we have been sometimo
acting in tbe management of Hospital
Fund, which has been raised, and is be
ing raised in our State, and applied
for the benefit of the sick and wounded
of the Georgia forces in the field. This
lias been called the “Georgia Soldiers’
Hospital Fund,” and wo respectfully
ask that yon will assist us, by organi.
zing an auxiliary committee, or other
wise acting in your county. We have
at present two surgical directors, and
several assistants, who, by permission
of tho Secretary of War, are in perma
nent attendance on tho Hospital.—
These not only afford the necessary
ministrations to our sick and wounded,
but supply them with such extra com
forts as are proper in their situation.—
As the number of the sick nnd wounded
increase,there will of course be an in-
creasori demand for such comforts; and
wc appeal to our fellow citizens in all
parts of tho State, (for wo make no dis
tinction in our ministrations, and know
none ; every son anil soldier of Georgia
having the same claim upon us, aDd
equally receiving tho attention of our
agents,) to aid us in this interresting
work.
A patriotic nnd humano planter has
suggested in one of the public gazottCB,
that tho planters of Georgia should con
tribute each one bale of Cotton to this
Fund, so ns to put it upon an entirely
secure an independent basis.—Upon
this many have acted, nnd have sent us
subscriptions. If others choose to do
so, wo will thankfully receive them,
and promise that we will dispose of
them to tho best advantage in aid of
this pious charity.
The Cotton can be subscribed—to be
sent to our chairman, or to the donor’s
factor, and the proceeds turned over to
onr chairman for the purposes intended.
It at the end of the war there should
be a surplus of this Fund, we pro
pose to divide it among the indigent
families of such of our soldiers as may
die in tho service.
Persons sending boxes of articles
will please place a list and the number
of the contents legibly upon tlie outside.
Any package intended for the sick and
wounded ot a particular company, if
sent to our care, will bo carefully for
warded.
We append a list of tbe article*, ar
ranged in the ordor which (if tbe sub
scription should bo in such things) will
