pong tho laws passed by the pros-
ongress there is neno that will be

peoplo than that clause of tho
Jption bill which bids all propric-
fsi'oe manufactories, Ac., und todis-
lof tho products of tiioir labor, at
Tco not exceeding seventy-live per-
Imi, above the cost 6f production,
peoplo, will look with anxiety for
kction.of the Secretary of War on
■Section.of the luw, for tho time is
Approaching when the wives and

prao rolief can bo obtained.
;so Brogan shoes are now, selling
1 10 dollars, per pnlr. Hats from
|5 dollars apieco.
1 can be no doubt, that a largo
fity of thoso who compose our nr.
are men of small means or who
Ig no property at all, wore depend'
T their daily labor for the support
b|r fumilies. It cannot bo expect-
pith all the wifo mny ; do at home,

selves and children at the prices
demanded for tqcse necessary ar
dging f r o m what has already
tirod, the prices will soon range

[this- law. 'Leat-hey , and wool is

II do not know but that the

must have $l,60-por pound for his lcath

for Brogans, Twenty-two dollars for cit
izen’s Bools, and forty dollars for Mill,
tary Boots, and all other nrtiolcs in his
line ot their priceB, is pnying him but
seveuty-fivo per cent, oh cost of pro
duction. 1 do not know' but tho hatter
can show, that because wool is so high
ho must get eight dollars for an ordina
ry Hat, and corresponding prices for
the finer sorts. But in tho name of
humanity, and of the suffering poor I
trust that if he deem it necessary', the
Secretary of War will tako speedy ac
tion, and as a citizen, .1 call upon the
Enrolling officers, everywhere, to dis
charge their duty faithfully, bofore God
and men; and let no man deoeivo them;
but solemnly bring all to the test; and
if, thorp bo Enrolling officers whoso
porsonnl interest as Shoomakors, Tan
ners, Millers, or any other occupation
puts them under tills law, then I say
it is thair duty at once to bring down
their own prices to the proper stan
dard, or resign, and give place to some
man who can fearlessly duoharg* his
duty.
1 fear there is ctio loop hole at which
escapo may be effected. Owners and
overseers, of plantations do not seem
to bo embraced in the clauso referred
to. It is to Farmers we must look for
primary relief; they grow the hides,
and the wool. ' Beeves have risen two
hundred per cent and wool six hun
dred per cent since the war commenced;
As owners and ovorscers have been em
braced in the exemption, it is a pity
they were not named in this clause,
for their productions form the basis and
their prices the spring board for these
speculators.
Tho Law does embrace “all persons to
whom exemption is granted tig reason of their
peculiar mechanical, or other occupation'’ and
I hope its construction may coyer not
only the above elass but also tho pro
prietors of cotton factories; fa* from
their prices a swam of speculators iiave
risen who burden the poor and'the .rich
beyond endurance. In Tenncssco
where but little cotton is made, Thread
could bo bought up to twenty days ago
for $2,60 per Block, .those Blocks be
ing double tho size of ours in this State;
yet in Georgia tho-merchant is asking
$8 per Block' of 51bs. May God help
our Congress to find somo legal way of
reaching this crying evil. Monopolists
are Ihe worst kind of speculators. If
they could bo permitted to enjoy their
gains ulo’ne it would.not be so bad, but
they become the centre of a cirplo con
tinually expanding. Their ware hou
ses are electric butteries from' whence,
the sparks of covetousness radiate all
over the land. Wool suddenly rose in
this state from $1. to $2 per pound. It
was believed that largo quantities were
in the bunds of Monopolists who bad
gathered much of their stock at prices
ranging below $1. I do not envy those
men their feelings in u filial reckoning.
Tho curse of the freeziiig Georgia sol'
dier who is manfully fighting their bat
ties will rest upon them.
I have read a large l nnmber of arti ;
eles against these evil practices and um
sorry that- they were all anonymous;
such articles are right in many cases
but this is not an evil that can be reaoh*
ed in that way. Theso practices are
denounced as crimes against the com
munity and every man who condemns
them should bo known that his own
oonduut might bo judged of by all; be
sides the napie and .influence of every
true man must bo arrayed openly to
produce tho propor weight in publio
opinion, tiro only woapon which can be
used against the Monopolist and Spec
ulator. I liuvo beon. told that I wil
only bo laughed at for my simplicity
sinco this evil is so wido spread, and
prevailing; embracing as It does, every
class and occupation in society. But'
I trust there ore somo fuitlifal left, who
ore willing to raise their voices ngainst
this thing, ami ninny who have been
forced in self-dcfcnco to claim high
prices, will gladly bail. the day,, .when,
under cover of this law-they cun sot an
exnmplo to others, with the hope that
it may not bo fruitless.

Our Savunnnh Correspondence.
Cami* Tnoui 1 , Near Savannah,
October, 8th, 1802,
Dear Courier: The 29tli and 30th
Regiments have been ordored to Jack
sonville, Flo. They left hero on Satur
day morning by the Gulf Road. Lieut.
Col. W. D. Mitchell was in command of
the 29th, ns Col. Young was at honie,
and having just married a wife. Our
company being on detaohed servico wo
did not go, but tho Lieut. Colonel mado
an effort to got us off, but the General
would not consent. Only six compa
nies went with the Regiment,. there be
ing-three on detached' service and one
so reduced by siokness 1 that there were
only five well men in the whole com,
pany.
Last Friday was appointed for Fuller’s
committal trial, hut as borio of the wit
nesses were siok, the tpal was postpon-!
cd until Monday, and for t!>e same roa-,
sons it was again postponed until last,
Tuesday two weeks, so he will have to
lie in jail at least that long.
It seems to be the opinion of those
who ought to know; that the enomy
will make an attack on this place at no
distant day. There is no doubt but
what they have received large rein
forcements within the last two weeks.
TliCro are more war steamer* here now
than there bus been since last Spring.
Aotivo preparations are being made to
receive them.
L. P. May has abandoned the idea of
making salt, as ho has no one to assist
him, and will leave for homo to-night,
but says ho will come back if ho eon
got any one to join him. lie lms left
money with our old friotul and neigh
bor Judgo Win. Johnson, to buy him
some salt; ho also left his boilers with
Johnson to sell, dr ship them back to
Rome, in caso ho fails to find a pur'
ohaser. Tho sea salt is selling for $20
per bushel. Good rice is selling at 31
to 5 eonts, according to quantity.
Capt. Cameron told mo tho morning
ho loft, to say to bis friends, they need
not be uneasy about him, as ho had
‘•received ordors to remain four or five
miles in th« rear of tho Regiment," ns
it was very important that the Quarter
master should not be exposed. With
this notice I hope they will not feel un
easy about him.
Augustus Spraggins, Honry L. Guffin,
Jasper Loyd, Vf. A. and J. T. Barker,
James McGinnis, W. A. Green and the
two Strouds are at Wliitosville, and
Samuel Robinson at Springfield—all
convalescent.
Jolin-L. Dodgin, jr., Joel Stowe, U.
L. Green, Corp’l J. IC. Bruton, D. II.
Hanna, J. W. Farris and W. E. Payne
are at tho Medical College Hospital—all
doing well, with the exception of Dodg
in. Ho has tho fever, and was quite
siok yesterday.
‘T. C. Hanna left herd Sunday night
for home, on a ten days furlough. B.
Shiver, 1). II. Spraggins and A J, Mor
gan, have returned to camps. Wm. A.
Morrison has sued out Ills discharge,
and the court ordered his discharge
yesterday, by reason of being under 18
years of age. Ha leaves to-night for
home. Sorgt. John A. May is acting
Adjutant for Major Lamb’s command.
Tho boys are all very well pleased
with the situation of ourcump, and the
duty they have to perform, alt hough-it
is six miles to the lower end of McKays
Point, where they have to go, and that
on rice dams, through briars, and grass
highor-than their-head*. It is admit
ted by nil to be tho most disagreeable
place to stand picket there is on the
coast, and at the same time the most
important point. The gunboats cm
shell them at pleasure, which is fre
quently done, and when Causton’s Bluff
Buttery opens oil Ihe boats, the pickets
are in ns much danger of .being hit by
our guns'as t-lioso of tho enemy, as they
are between their boats and the batte
ry. Should tho River Buttery and the
Fort open on tho boats, and fail to
make true shots and stvike in die wa
ter, thepiokots stand a good cjianco to
bo hit by them.
II. W. Berryhill, Wro. II. Mitchell,
J. T. Holbrook and B. Shiver are on
tho sick list this morning in camp.
They are ablo to cook'and eat their ra
tions however. Captain Turner is sot
well this morning, though not reported
siok. J. L. Dodgin arrived in 'tho city
last night; ho onmo down to seo his
son.
Tlioso writing to any of tho boys at
WhitoSville must direct their letters to
Guyton F, O. 0a.
All is quiet on tho coast this evening,
and I hope such is the case in
Floyd,
