- Senators Elect
The Itiolimoiul correspondent of the
Charleston Courier, gives the following
explanation of the process of electing
Confederate Stales Senators:
Richmond, February 21,1862.
In the Confederate Sonato to day, a
drawing took placs for tho terms of ser
vice of the respective Senators. Tho
Constitution provides that after Con-
gtessis organized, tho Senators shall
be divided by lot into three classes ;
tho terms of service of the first clas3
expiring at the end of two years, the
terms of the second elass expiring at
the end of four years, and the terms of
the third class oxpiring at tho end of
six years.
So as to avoid tho chance of two Sen
ators fiom the same Stato drawing
terms of equal length, tho President of
the Senate had prepared four ballots
marked two years—four years; five
ballots marked four years—six years,
and four ballots marked two years—six
years.
The novel coremony of drawing thcBt
bnllots commenced shortly after tho
hour cf meeting to-day. During Us
progress, it was mYinsinc to watch tho
laces of tho Senators. Those who were
lucky enough to get the long terms,
took their late with oomplaccncy, and
reoeiyed tho wnrm congratulations of
their friends. Those who drew tho
short terms either sunk into their seats
with dissatisfied countenances, or fell
joking about their luck with assumed
nonchalance. Tho thirteen ballots, de
signated as above, were placed in small
white envelopes, sealed, and deposited
in a lint. As the Beoictary called tho
name of a Slate (commencing in alpha
betical order with Alabama,) ono of tho
Senators from that State stepped for
ward and drew an envelope from the
liat. The Secretary broke the seal and
lead the numbers cn the ballot within.
Tho two numbers on the ballot, de
signated tho length of the terms of the
two Senators from tho Stato just called.
The following was the result of tho
drawing:
Mr. Clay, for Alabama, drow bullot
narked 2 years 0 years.
Mr. Johnson, for Arkansas, drew bal
lot marked 2 years 0 years.
Mr. Maxwell, for Florida, drew ballot
marked 2 years 4 years.
Mr. llill, for Georgia, drew ballot
marked 2 years 0 years.
Mr. Simms, for Kontuoky, drew bal
lot marked 2 years t» years.
Mr. Sommcs, for Louisiana, drow bal
lot marked 4 years 0 years.
Mr. Phelan, for Mississippi, drew bul
lot marked 2 years 4 years.
Mr. Peyton, for Missouri, drew ballot
marked 2 years 4 years.
Mr. Davis, for North Carolina, drew
ballot marked 2 years 4 years.
Mr. Barnwell, for South Carolina,
drew ballot marked 4 years 0 years.
Mr. Hayhes, for Tennessee, drew bal
lot marked 4 years 0 years -
Mr. Wigfall, for Texas, drew ballot
marked 4 years 6 years.
Mr. Preston, for Virginia, drew ballot
marked 4 years 6 years.
Those prelinfinaric-s boing over, the
President prepared two ballots ; upon
each of which he wrote ono of the fig
ures upon the ballot drawn by the Sen
ator 1'iom the State to be called first:
for instance, Mr. Clay having drawn a
ballot marked 2 years 6 years, for Ala
bama, the figure 2 was written on one
of the new ballots and the figuro 6 on
the other. Each of these ballots were
enclosed in an envelope, sealed and
deposited in the lint. Upon calling the
Slate of Alabama, Mr. Clay stepped
forward and drew an envelope. The
figuro inside corresponded with the
term of his service. The figure in the
remaining ballot corresponded with
the term of service of his colleague,
ilr. Yancey.
Plant Corn
Hitherto this exhortation has been
addressed to the interest of tne plan
ters. The Press hns labored to prove
that the labor expended in raising tin-
otlier crop in addition to the ono al
ready on hand, would bo thrown away
—that sales are improbable, and if the
ports should bo opened the two, com
bined, thrown suddenly on the mar
ket, would produce but little more
money than one.
Tho presence of tho enemy in Ten
nessee, with but little propability of
bis being driven back, for months to
oomo at least, presents the case in a
new nspoct to tho plunters of tho Gulf
States. Tenncssoo once under the con
trol of the Federals, the production of
provisions in that great sourcaof sup
ply must measurably ceaso. So to a
greater or less extent, will it be with
tho grain producing portions of Georgia
and Alabama. This will throw tho cot
ton growing section of the Confedracy
ou their own resources, not only to feed
themselves, but the army in addition
What madness, then, for plunters in
Carolir.n, Georgia, and the Gulf States to
think of planting a cotton crop under
snch circumstances! Just think of it.
Such a policy is nothing more nor less
than direct aid and comfort to the ene
my. It will starve cut our army and
drive it from the field, leaving our no
ble strugglo for freedom to inglorious-
ly languish and die, a victim at the
hands of its friends. It wlU bo an act
of suicide, which should consign any
pooplo who commit it to a lasting
shame.
Hear, planters of the South, your
duty. Tho country demands it at your
hands, and it would be little short of
treason to refuse obodionco to her
holiest.
The Rc>enlislmont and llounty Act.
The Savannah Republican makes the
following convenient and intelligible
analysis of tho late act of Congress, for
paying bounties to volunteers :
A law of tho Confederate Congress,
approved 11th December, 1801, makes
the following provision for' the pay
ment of a bounty of fifty dollars to
privates, non-commissionod officers and
musicians of tho Provisional Army,
who shall serve continuously for three
years or for tho war, to be paid as fol
lows.
1. To all now in service for ono yoar
to be paid at tho time of volunteering
or enlisting for the next ensuing two
years, subsequent to tho expiration of
their present term of service.
2. To all now in scrvico for three
years or for tho war, to be paid at the
expiration of their first year’s service.
3. To all who nmy hereafter volun
teer or enlist for three years or for tho
war, to be paid at the time of entry in
to servioo.
4. Furloughs not exoeeding sixty
days, witli transportation home ana
back, to all twelve months men, now
in service, who shall, prior to theexpir
atiou of their term of service, volun
teer or enlist for the next two ensuing
years, subsequent to the expiration of
their present term of service,, or for
three years or for the war.
5. In lieu of a furlough the commu

it may elect.
G. The Act applies to all troops who
huvo volunteered or enlisted in the
service of any State, who are now in
the service of the State, and who may
hereafter volunteer or enlist in tho ser
vice cf tho Confederate States for the
periods above stated,

Tho Third Georgia Battalion had
scarcely got out of sight of our town'
until some of our citizens who had vol
untarily taken the oath to support the
Southern Confederacy, began to get ve
ry bold in denouncing the South and
tho Southern army, and advocating the
Union. Some abusing Governor Har

Yankees; other saying thatsomeof the

when the Yankee army “gets in,"and

them.

Tho Memphis Avalanche of tho 26th
inst., after stating that tho Federals
came into Edgefield a short distance
off, and cnoampod there, says:
“It was to this point that Mayor
Cheatham repaired, and formally ten
dered the city with all the public stores
it contained, to the cemmander of the
Federal forces.
The Federals seemed • loth to believe
that the city had really been surrender
ed, and accordingly only sent over
fifteen men to take possession—and
even these seemed to be on the lookout
for a surprise of some'rort.
There was a large amount of bacon
and othor army storos in the city of
Nashville, and Col. ForreBt of this aity
was engaged up to Sunday afternoon
attending on the saving and transporta
tion of the same.
While engaged- i» this service, Mayar
Cheatham opposed and told him-to do
sist, he having formally given up the
same to the Federal officer. Those'of
ns who know Col. Forrest can well im
agine what his reply would be to such
an order He told the Mayor that he
ranked all officers then in the city
that lie was a Confederate officer, and
that if ho did not desist from interfer
ence, he would take force. Subsa
quently, a lot of low-fiung characters
abopt the city, commenced a series of
depredations Upon private property,
and the Mayor being powerless to re
press them, it is reported that Col
Forrest took a detachment, and meet
ing them in the public square, killed
five of them before they were dispers
ed.
Sgy-On taking possession of Clarks
ville, Tenn., a fow days since, Commo
doro Foote issued a proclamation pro
hibiting tho display of secession flags,
or the exhibition of secession sympa
thy by thp people.
Gen. Pillows Report.
Tho length of Gen. Pillow’s Report
prevents us from publishing it in full.
We give the following portion in regard
to the surrender:
The operations of the day had forced
the entire command of the enemy
around to our right wing, and in front
of Gen. Buckner’s position in the en
trenchments, and when his command
reached his position, he fohnd the ene
my rapidly advancing to take pciseB-
sion of this portion of the work. Ho
hud a stubborn conflict, lasting one and
a half hours, to regain it, and (he ene
my actually got possession of tho ex
treme right of his position, and held it
so firmly that he could not dislodge
him. The position thus gained by the
enemy was a most commanding one,
being immediately in the rear of our
fiver battery, and field works for its
protection. From it he could readily
turn tho intrenched work occupied by
Gen. Buckner, and attack him in re
verse, or advance under cover of an
intervening ridge directly upon our
battery and field work. Wliilo heboid
this position, It was.niuuifest we could
not hold the main work or battery.
Such was the condition of the armies at
night-fall, after nine hours of conflict
on the 15th inst,, in which our loss was
sovere, and leaving not less than 51)00
of the enemy dead and wounded on
the field. We left upon tho field near
ly all his wounded, because we could
not remove them. We left his dead
unburied because we cculd not bury
them. •
Such conflict and coil rags has, per
haps, never before occurred upon this
continent. We took about 300 priso
ners and a largo quantity of arms. We
had fought this battle to open the wuy
for our army, and relieve us from an
investment which would necessarily
reduco us and the position by famine.
Wo hud occupied tho whole day to
accomplish our object, and before we
could prepare to leave, after taking in
the wounded and the dead, the enemy
had thrown around us again in the
night, an immense forceof fresh troops,
and re-occupied his original position in
the line of investment, thus aguin cut
ting off our retreat. We hud only
about 12,000 troops, all told. Of these
a large proportion we hud lost in the
throe battles. '1 he command had been
iu the trenches night and day for five
days, exposed to the snow, sleet, mud
and ice water, without shelter, and
without adequate covering, and without
sleep.
In this condition the general officers
held a consultation, to determine what
lie should do. Gen. Buckner gave it
as his decided opinion, that* he could
not hold his position half an hour
Rguinst an assault of the enemy, anil
said the enemy would attack him at
daylight. The proposition then was
made by the undersigned, to again fight
through the enemy’s line and cut our
way out. Gen. Buckner said his com
mand was so worn out and eat to pieces
and demoralized, that he could not
make another fight; that it would cost
tho command three-quarters of its
present numbers to cut its way through
and it was wrong to sacrifice three
quarters of a command to save one
quarter; that no officer had a right to
cause such a sacrifice. Gen. Floyd and
Mnj. Gilnior, 1 understand concurred in
this opinion.
I then expressed the opinion, that
we could hold out another day, and in
that time we could get steamboats, and
set the command over the river, and
probably save a large portion of it. To
this Gen. Buokner replied that the ene
my would certainly attack him at day
light and that he eould not hold his
position half an hour. The alternative
of the proposition was a surrender of
their position and command. General
Floyd said that he would neither sur
render the command, nor would he
surrender himself a prisoner. I lmd
taken the same position. Gen. Buok-
ner said lie was satisfied nothing else
could be done, and that, therefore, lie
would surrender, if placed in com
mand. Uen. Floyd said that he would
turn over the command to him if lie
could be allowed to withdraw his oom-
mand ; to this Gen. Buokner consent
ed. Thereupon, Gen. Floyd turned
the command over to me, I passing it
instantly to Gen. Buckner, saying I
would neither surrender the command
nor myself a prisoner. I directed Col
Forrest to out his way out. Under
these cireumstances, Gen. Buckner ac
cepted tlie command, and sent a flag of
truce to the enemy, for an armistice of
six hours, to negotiate for terns of cap
itulation. Before this flag and commu
nication was delivered I retired from
the garrison.
