extortionary prices of other places.—
But in Bpite of this, the men, many of
them, will buy honey at a dollar a
poand, bacon and lard at 75 cents, and
other luxuries in proportion. They
have lived so long oh fresh beef and
flour, with less than half the salt they
desire, that they have becamo desperate
for something good to eat. Fresli pork
lias been premised several times lately,
but it has not yet come to hand. Beef
und flour, with nothing else but a very
little salt, do not make a desirable die
for any considerable timo, say three or
four weeks together, and men become
almost frantic when confined to it, and
they will pay almost any price for some'
thing else to cat. Some speculator
brought a little salt into camp a few
days since, and sold it "like a flash,”
for a dollar - a pint. Ordinary sized
apples have frequently been told at a

Tlio end ol the War.
The end of the war is not yet, nor
do we IiaTO any rensonablo hope or
expectation that it will occur during
Lincoln's administration, if then.—
Our people are, hi our judgment, guilty
of groat folly in attaching any impor
tance to any thing-and everything .that
is transpiring ever the water, in rela
tion to intervention cr railing thin
blockade. These aro but "the harps,
of a thousand strings,” upon whioh
the despots of.all Europe are playing,
to keep up tho war until the last hope
and vestigo of a republican form of
government is swept from the Ameri
can conlinoiit, by the jolly and lanati-
cism of tho North. They are all the
sworn enemies of liberty, and ospeci-
ally'of the slavery of the Africau race.
They are twofold tlio enemies -of,the
South, to what they are ef the North.
There can be no doubt, but thero is
a secret understanding, between the
crowned heads of Europe and the Lin
coln government, which has produced
tho ‘emancipation proclamation. Eu
rope knows that the finances of tho
North is in utter ruin, and it would
have been utterly .repudiated long Ago,
by all Europe, but for the fact, that
such nn act would bring the war to a
sudden close. Europe is tiow extract
ing through the increasing rate of
exchange, every substantial article,
upon wliibh there is based, any reason
able hope of the North over redeem
ing her paper currency or paying her
debts. This high exchange is enrich
ing Europe, and impoverishing the
North—but malice, revenge and fanntr
ioism aro biind as the adder.
Tho North, with all hor Yanks*
astuteness, will never learn her true
condition, until John Bull and l»s co- ^
adjutors, has hov utterly beyond recov-
ery, tied hand and foot—theiY/aml,not m<

Eds. or Roue Courier :
Dear Sir : Will you al
low me apace in your colums to say that
the company whioh 1 am raising is
changed from Infantry to Heavy Artil
lery, t* be stationed permanently at
Savannah. This is a favorable change
os there will be no marching or pioket
duty, an increase of wages, $50 bounty,
and permanent and comfortable quar
ters. . Applications for admission can
be made to Dr. Gregory at Rome.
1 have been informed that there is to
be n* notice by proclamation or other
wise of the commencement of enroll
ment of men between 35 and 45 years
of age, as the Government does not
wont volunteers, but conscripts who
can bo sent where they are most need
ed, and that the enrollment will take
place silently andi at once. It is the
part of prudence therefore, for those
who desire to aviod conscription, to
connect themselves with an authorized
volunteer company which will not be
called into service until the new enroll
ment. takes place.
Your* respectfully,

Negro Excitement.
Wo learned yesterday. Bays the Atlan
ta Confederacy, that the citizens resid
ing in and around Palmetto have been
considerably excited for a few days,
owing to the confessions of u negro
man belonging .to the Beavers’ estate in
Campbell county. It appears that he
was implicated in stealing some leather,
and under the lash revealed, or preten
ded to roveal, the existence of a plan
being on foot to.raise and organizo sev
eral negro companies, whioh was to be
offioered and completed by' Christmas,
and then were to niako their way to
the Yankees, In response to Lincoln's,
proclamation. .- lie seemed to be pretty
well posted as to the proclamation de
claring emanoiprtion, and the timo it
was to take effect, Ac. He told a
great many things—some of which
were probably true, and many not;
but lie told onougli to show that our
people should bo on their guard. Lin
until then, will sho discojier ;hor folly
and madness, "
In the meantime, she may ruin us,
but thej North and all'tho combined
powers of earth, can. never subjugate,
us. ff the enemy were in possession
of everv town, hamlet and village ' in
the Confederacy, we would be 119 nearer
The Rattle of Pciryville.
.The following is u copy of General
Bragg’s offipial report of tlio battle of
Perryvillb, Ky :
Headquarters Department No. 2,1.
BryantSville, Ky., Oot. 12,1862. J
iSir:—Finding the enemy pressing
heavily in his rear near Perryviile; Ma-
jnriOeneral Hardee, of Polk’s command,
was obliged to halt and check hint at
that point. Having arrived at Ilurrods-
burg from 'Frankfort, I determined to
give him battle there, and accordingly
-concentrated three divisions of my old
command—the army of tbo Mississippi,
§ ow under Mty’or-Goneral Polk—Cheat-
ain’s, Buckner’s, und Andbrson's—and
jrccted General Polk to take tlio com
mand on tho 7th, and attack tho enemy
the next morning. Wilher’s division
had gono tho duy before to support
Smith. Hearing on the! night of the
7th that the force in front of Smith
had rapidly retreated, 1 moved' early
next morning to be present at the ope
rations of Polk’s forces.
The two armies were formed'confront
ing each other on opposite sides of the
town of Perryviile. After, consulting
tlio General and rcconnoitering the
f round and examining tho dispositions,
declined to assume'tho command, but
suggested some changes and modifica
tions of his arrangements, which he
promptly adopted. The action opened
at 12J, P. M., between tli’e skirmishers
and artillery on both sides. Finding
the enemy indisposed to advance upon
us, and knowing that ho was receiving
heavy reinforcements, I deemed it host
to assail him vigorously and so directed.
Th* engagement became general soon
thereafter, aud was contifTbed furiously
from that time to dark, our troops nev
er faltering and never failing in their
efforts.
For th* time encaged, it wa* the se
verest and moBt dcperately contested
engagement within my knowledge.—
Fearfully outnumbered, our troops did
not hesitate to engage at any odds, and
thougli checked at times, they event
ually carried every position, and drove
the onemy about two miles. But for
tbo intervention of night, we should
have completed the work. We . bad
captured juicon pieces of artillery by
the moat during charges, killing one*
and wounding two Brigadier Generals,
and a very largo number of inferior
oilicors and men, estimated at no less
than 4,000, and captured 400 priBoneis,
including three staff officers, with ser
vants, carriage and baggage of Major
O011. McCook.
Tho ground was litoTKllycovercd with
his dead, and wounded. In such a con
test our, loss was necessarily severe,
probably not Ipss -than 2,500 killed
wounded And missing. Included in
the wounded aro Brigndibr Generals
Wood, Qloburn and Brown, gallant and
noblo soldiers, whose loss will bo severe
ly felt.Iiy their command*. To Major
Gen. Polk, commanding tlio forces,
Mqjor General Hardee, commanding
tbo left wing, two divisions, and Major
Generals Cheatham, Buckner and An
derson, commanding divisions, is main
ly due the brilliant achievements of
this memerablo field. Nobler troops
were never, more ; gallantly led. The
country owes them a debt of gratitudo
which I am sure will bo acknowledged.
, Ascertaining that. tlio enemy was
heavily reinforced during the night, I
withdrew my force early the next
movning to Ilarrodsburg, and tlionce
tO .tllirt - ‘ ‘ • o_-,i.

host mean's of putting a stop to "tlio
depredations of ' tho rebel privateers
upon American commerce.” A feel
ing of a strong indignation was expres
sed at tho conduot of the British'Gov
ernment, whioh is charged with conni
ving at the fitting up of those armed'
vessels In English ports. The New
York "Herald,” in noticing the meet-
ing, says: -
At tlie some yard at which the "ifeO”'
was built, whioh has committed sueh
ravages upon our commerce, there are
four gunboats and ■ a steam frigate in
progress of construction, destined for
buccaneering enterprises. It is tho-
yard of the eminent shipbuilder, Laird,
in the Mersey, at Birkenhead, opposite
Liverpool. It is enclosed and access
denied tp the publio; but tho English
Government is well aware of the des
tination ef the vessels on the stocks.—
They aro all steamers of great speed,
and armed with the heaviest ana best
-guns. It is true the guns are- not.pub
on boardltill after the vessel Bails; but’
they are conveyed to her by British
vessels from British ports. Coal is
brought to her in tho same way; and
under this transparent gauzo veil’ the-
English Government permits vessels to-
be fitted out in British'ports againBt
