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.

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.

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.

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.

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 A CRISIS IS AT HAND. compromise through Northern agency.

FROM THIS DATE The authority of the peolpe organi zes a new system of legislation suited to the times. Politicians will not be permitted to injure the general cause in pursuit of ambitious ends.

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 confreres, let them begin to act. We shall stand by the press and its privi leges to the last, and shall not surren der it without a struggle adequate to 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.

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 Reporter. 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 : War Department, 1 July 30th, 1861.

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 bo foand most useful: Sheets, pillows and pillow cases, handkerchiefs, hose, jackets, drawers, socks, shitts, towels, blankets, coverlets, tea, coffee, arrowroot, rice, sugar, com starch, isinglass, lime juice, medicines of all kinds, bandages, wines, brandies liquorice, rose water and flax seed.— Shirts.— Two breadths of unbleached cotton, 1J yards long, 1 yard wide, open at bottom A yard ; sleeve, length if yard; armhole, length 12 inches;
