Heavy. clouds arc flying bvcr llic sky.
■The,vain is lading in torrents. The
•Svlnd is hotvling Mia moaning like
sonic accursed Spirit, The air is' raw,
cold and keen. We sit in a comforta
ble loom, wanned, by the blazing tire,
the more cheerful and wholesome for
the oak and black jack that feed the
flufoe. It is dark and dismal without,
bright aiid cheerful within. The moun
ting flame and the icy air make us
think of those who have gone forth
from our homes to do buttle for our
imperilled rights and honor. May bo
at this moment these loved members
of our household aro keeping watch
and ward, or perchanco suilbring from
some languishing malady in the hospi
tal, or from wounds received in a com
bat, about wllich we have not hoard,
and may be they havo just closed their
eyes in death.
There are moments when the shadow
of the times rest darkly upon the
heart. It is then wo renlizo what we
arc doing, and what wo arc suffering,
for the priceless blessings^vhich a mean
ornl'ly, and uvaruciuus foe would wiest
from us. We cali to remembrance the
anguish we passed through, before wo
could obtain tlie .the consent of otr
will to give them up, the terrible pangs
caused by the parting, the anxiety that
has tortured our hearts since they left,
aroused by the agonizing four that wo
shall see them no more.
lie who seelh in secrot alone knows
what this struggle costs the wives,
mothers and sisters of the noble men,
who compose the Southern army, how
many tears they weep, how many
groans they heave. And yet most wor
thy uro our women of such husbands,
sons and brothers. It is their boast
and pride that they with whom they
are connected by the lies of blood and
affection, are in the ranks of tile South
ern army, and because they are there
they love them bettor and more at-
dently.
We may sympathize with our gallant
voluntoeis, in the discomforts, hard
ships, sufferings mid toils they under
go, but they who have never slept under
a tent, stood sentinel, and peiformed
tho numerous duties required of a
soldier, have no idea of their sufferings
and privations. A liinjtod acqiiaintunc
with tho churnctc-r of their duties would
enhance our admiration of these noble
men, and intensify our sense of obliga
tion to them. We cannot- admire them
too groinly, we cannot overrate I ho
debt of gratitude wo ary under to them,
wo cunnot do too mncli for them.
Most thankful arc wo that the claims
they have upon us havo been fully met
with promptitude and cheerfulness.
Thousands of hands have ministered to
their wants, and money has been con
tributod with unpnrnlloled liberality.
Tho spirit that animates our volunteers
is the spirit that unimates tho whole
country. But we must have a care that
wo do not grow weary in this good and
glorious work. What lias been dono
mnst be dono aguin, and moru than has
been dono. Wo must see to it that
those who are fighting for our homes
and honor, and all that makes a coun
try dear and life worth having, uio sup
plied with everything necessary for
their comfort and for the rolVeshmeht
and support of their spirits under their
hard labors and great sufferings.
It were well for us to abandon at
once tho hope of a short war. This
hope has already been a harmful delu
sion. If we had comprehended the
nature and magnitude of tho work we
are engaged in, at tho beginning of the
struggle, wo would havo accomplished
a great deal more. Our enemy is actu
ted by tho fiercest hate and by an un-
satiable greed of gain. His resources
are vast, his resolve to do the impossi
ble work of reducing us to bondage is
fixed, and lie will not cease to wage
this war till dol'cat, disgrace and banlt-
rudtey oblige him, to sue for peace.
Let us count upon a long war, bloody
battles, and many huge evils. If the
time of tria( be shortened, so the bet
ter. But if tiie struggle bo prolonged
through many of the coining yours,
God hath so ordained, and it shall re
dound to our good and honor. iWJfcli
evory manful quality, itv tlie . full

Cami* Wilson, (Near Savannah,)
January 21st, 1862.
Lieut. Col. W. P. W. Ashley,
52(/i Regiment Georgia Volunteer* :
Dear Sir—You say “tho above ex
tract is a base calumny upon tho offi
cers and privates of the 25th Regiment,
and that you know tho author, and
that proper steps are being taken to
bring Him to an account before tho
proper tribunal.” In reply, permit tee
\b say, 1 am more than willing and
fully prepared, to meet you and the
Regiment, in'tho investigation of the
charge, lor “tho truth is mighty and
must prevail,” ,
As 1 staled in my letter to you on
Saturday last, 1 may may have been in
error to sny "Faro banks;” perhaps]
should have said “Uhuckaluck banks.”
You dare not deny their existence in
the 25th at tho time I wrote tho commu
nication and since then, and you know
the tendenoy and evil are tho same in
their “damning influence” upon those
you suffer to participate in them, for
there is merely a distinction without a
difference.-, and 1 wcukl boro remark
that I am truly sorry to seo a gentle
man who holds so high a position, quib
ble about such a small thing. You seem
to try to make tho impression that 1
include tho privates us being responsi
ble for the existence of those "C'hucka-
aluck bunks.” J deny it. The officers
are alone responsible for their existence,
and all the evils that naturally lollow,
for if you nil had dono your duty
they would not havo been there, and
this difficulty would hnvo been obviat
ed.
I am aware there are some officers in
the 25th, who 1 know to bo opposed to
those games, but it is to be regretted
that they will stand with their uruis
akimbo, apparently indifferent to their
duty ui d trust reposed in them, and
seo the youth under their charge
travelling the downward road to ruin,
and not try to rescuo them by either
word or act.
Why did you not publish tho corres
pondence between us Why did you
not havo tho fairness to acknowledge
iu your letter tlirt L acknowledged to
you, and to three of tho officers of the
26th, on tlie./t'rs< enquiry that 1 was the
author of-the communication? It ap
pears that you wish the impression to
go out that. you obtained tho informa
tion from some other sourco,
Tho liotous conduct of a portion of
your Regiment on lust .Saturday night,
in inarching out of the 25th, and into
and across the 2'Jtli Regiment, With a
lantern hoisted on a pole, was the natu
ral fruits of those “chliekuluck banks,”
In justice to you, I will here state, that
you came immediately and ordered
them buck, and apologized to Colonel
Alexander, and assured him tho insult
was not intended for him or the regi
ment, and at the same lime stated that
it wt t dono without the knowledge or
consent of any of tho commissioned
officers. I hope' such was the case;
but it looks very-unreasonabl e for so
many to get up such a move and march
out without tho' knowledge of some
officer, [tlooks so unreasonable lam
forced to the conclusion that there wus
a "power behind tho throne greater
than the throne itself.”
According to my view of tilings, it
little'becomes a a sup. rior officer to in
sult an inferior officer, when the former
knows the hitter's h.inds are tied fust
and firm by the.army regulators, wise
ly made by llio guardians of our young
Confederacy. Let these restraints ho
removed, and then I will in earnest
Christian feeling hurl back the lie so
boldly given in your communication'.-,
To'idi fhbStrwlrd live fibiice'and good
order, 1 will say 1 regret that this mat
ter has taken tho course it has, hut
you will, no doubt, justify mo in reply
ing through tho press, as jusliao to
myself and the cause of truth demands

Tho blow will, therefore, soon fall;
but wo shall be well prepared to parry
it, and deal the enemy one which he
will not recover from so eusily. Yet it
behooves our people to arouse them
selves from tho lethargy of a long re
pose and elevate themselves to a level
with the exigency—that they shall fully
understand the desperate and expiring
strugglo of the enemy, and meet it with
that vigor and resolution which ore
necessary to resist and dofeat him.—
We have the power, we have the cour
age, we havo the resolution. Nothing
will onablo the enemy to make head
way, and gain important advantages,
but the apathy of prolonged inaction.—

A Description of the Confederate
Flouting Battery Merrimac.
A Norfolk correspondent gives the
following interesting particulars bf the
Norfolk Turtle," the Merrimac:
Yosterduy, at dress parade, orders
wore read out for all who wished to vol
unteer for six months’ service aboard
tho Morrintao, to report themselves at
headquarters.
From this the inforonco is, that she
will soon he ready for sea. Tho Yan
kees, fully apprised of everything go
ing on with us, are on tlie lookout for
her, and arc prepared to ha /e a lively
time with with her, should she attempt
to fotco tho blockade, ns sho certainly
will. Inasmuch ns tho Lincoluites are
fully posted iu regard to her, there can
bo nothing faulty in giving you a slight
idea of tho nondescript craft. Once
she was the pride of tlie Federal navy
and considered the finest of her class
afloat. Being/tit tho Gosport Ntwy
Yard when the frightened lleaunn*
tied from that institution, they at 1
tempted to destroy her, but failed in
tho undertaking. Acting on thtPhint
of the New Orleans “Xurtle,” tho Gov
ernment determined to make a Norfolk
Turtle of tho Merrimac, nnd workmen
hnvo boon busily engaged on her for
nearly six months, and a striking met
amorphosis they havo oflfectcd in her
general appearance.
From a first class frigate she is razeed
down till thesurlnce she presents above
water is no greater than that of a canal
boat, nnd on that surface no balls or
shells can take effect. Three loot be
low tho water linos tho iron plating,
four inches thick, on solid oak twenty
eight incites thick, commences nnd
runs upward from each side, slopin
like the roof of a house, and being, ii
fact, an iron roof on a floating house.—
No spars, nmsts or upper works of any
kind ate in sight. Even the chimneys
are on spiral springs, “squashablo”
without injury, and tho only place sho
can ho struck is on her iron roof. The
only place of getting into her is thro’
a small hatchway, to which is an iron
lour fastening immovably on the in
side, so that the enemy had as well
attempt to board a loggerhead turtle,—
Her nrmnnjont consists of throe heavy
gun# on each sido, and one at bow amt
torn. Tho iron cleaver in front is
opposed capable of dividing a Yankee
shi]i in two equal portions with great
nicety and dispatch.

The Plot Thickens.
The plot of the great crusade of Yuti-
kocilom for tho subjugation of the
South thickens as tlie “fifth act.” of
tho drama progresses. Tho curtain lias
risen upon that act, as ive believe, and
the play will go on with tolerable ra
pidity to the denouement in which the
villain is exposed and punished,and-the
wrong righted.
The Northern press has been for
weeks on the tip-toe of expectation.—
They havo repeated with increased en
ergy tho oft-heralded prediction that
the rebels would he, in a few dnyssur-
rcunded, and rebellion crushed out.—
They have predicted talsoly so many
times about tho onward movement ol
their grand armies, and the striking of
the final blow, that little faith is to bo
put in what they say; hut tho wolf may
come at last, however often tho false
warning may bo repeated. From tho
signs apparent iu tho naval prepara
tions, and the movements and tho
iinina-uvenng of tho land troops of tho
enemy, it may bo fairly inferred that
tho threatened blow is soon to come.
It is, probably, only delayed now by
tho condition of the roads.. Yesterday
was a bright sunny day, and sucti a day
brings out the adder. A lew of such
days would make an improvement in
the roads and bring on some fighting ;
but, whether this be the casoornot, we
may fairly infer that the next sixty
days will be marked by some very
bloody battles. Lincolndom staggers
under a load of deDl and grows desper
ate at the waning of public confidence
at tho North in tho Government and
tho nTmy. Longer delays will be, in
their opinion, fatal. The credit of tho
Government, the confidence of the
people, must he revived by a bold
movement. Even Lord John Russell
has declared that the absence of a
great victory for the Federalists by the
last of January will be fatal to the Gov
ernment,
