Tho Ladies are requested to meet at

Governor Brown's Coop Btctat.
Tho Stato Government Agonts, on
Friday last, did a wholesale business in
tho "pressing” line. All articles suit
able for soldier's clothing was taken—
such as jeans, osnahurgs. shirting, cot
ton yarn, leather, shoos, Ac., wherever
they could be found.
From what we can learn Gov. Brown
has most singularly misconstrued the
lew in this case. Tho law appropriates
$1,500,000 to buy clothing for tho Geor
gia troops, and Gov. Brown was to uso
all possible oxertiens to purchaso tho
artioloe needed at reasonable rates, but
in caso bo was unablo to do so, the# ho
was to seise them. But instead of
which ho has spruug these seiiurcs on
the entire State simultaneously, as we
see from our exchanges that similar
seitures wore made in other citios at tho
same lituo. We cannot -but think th.it
■this movement will he productive of
great evil.

being taken to proparo buildings for

that other buildings will also be fitted
up shortly.
At the roquost of the Surgeons, the
ladies met thorn at the Court House
yestorday morning, and after listening
to an interesting lecture on tho prepn-
tions for a hospital, they ropeired to
the room of tlio Soldier's Aid Society,
where a largo quantity of goods was
taken out to be made up into such arti
cles os wore needed.

From Virginia.
Wo toko the following items from
tho Richmond Dispatch, of the 4th
instant:
Tho reports from Fredericksburg
yesterday, if correct, are important.—
It ts stated that Burnside has been su-
i icrseded in tho command of -the Yan-
:eo forces, and that "fighting Joe
Hooker,” as be is familiarly termed by
Yankee correspondents, has taken his
place. Burnside will hava no chubb to
rogrot this change if the radicals insist'
upon an early advance.
Another report states that pretty so-
vero skirmishing occurred in the neigh
borhood of Port Royal yesterday morn
ing, but with what result could not be
learned. Tho general aspect of affuirs
is represented to indicate a battle.—
The columns of tho enemy have been
moved to the front, and much nativity
is observablo along their lines. Of our
own forces we need not sponk, but con
fidenoe is felt both in tho army and its
leaders.
A lady who rcoently- arrived in Pe
tersburg from tho seaboard informs the
Petersburg Express that Portsmouth
wss, on last Sabbath week, the scene
of the largest funeral procession evor
witnessed in that section. It was occa
sioned by the death of a young man
named Franklin, a member of the
Young Guards, 3d Georgia Regiment.
At tho time of tho evacuation of Nor
folk ho was too unwoll to bo removed,
aud never recovered from his illnesB.
The loyal portion of the inhabitants
turned out to do honor to his remains.
It is estimated there wore threo thous
and persons in tho procession, including
many of both sexes, of the most re
spectable portion oi the community 1—
Thero wore fivo clergymen who joined
ia the procession, the Kov.. Dr. Handy,
Presbyterian, officiating at tho church
aod tho grave. The coffin was covered
with & Secession flag, and the Indies be-
deoked tho tomb with many secession
boquets. Federal officers and soldiers
witnessed tho solemn pageant, but
without interference.
Parties who have opportunics for
knowing, report that tho Yankees at
Suffolk were last wock roinforced by
ono fun brigade and a battery of field
artillery. Their force at Suffolk ami
vicinity is now estimated by thoir own
men at 30,000. They stato that this
force is to move against Petersburg

Thb Oram Sin*,—A correspondent of
the Richmond Enquirer, at the request
of Rev. J. R. Graves, who has just
returned from a six week’s sojourn in
ihe North, writes that paper contra
dicting all tho statements in regard to
an anti-war feeling in the North. Mr.
Graves wo* in Now York three weeks
in daily converse with backers, mer
chants, politicians, lawyers, and all the
organs of public opinion. He says the
North and West aro now in a condition
of extraaordinary prosperity—growii
rich faster than ever before, and all tl
talk of a weariness of the war in those
sections is utterly groundless. The
idea, too, of restoring tho "Union as
it was” is generally abandoned, but the
great purpose of establishing one gov
ernment over the whole territory with
in the late United States, is stronger
than ever. What sortofagovornmeat,
they'are quite indifferent to—but they
prefer any other to a repnblic. They
only: wish a strong government—one
able to crush out all opposition; and
they do not beleive a republic strong
cuouph. As to crushibgout this rebel
lion they have neither aoubts nor fears,
They have not yot begun ,tO .bring tho

Mbhi-dib Intelligence.—Incendiar
ism seems to be holding high cat-nival
in Memphis. An old citisan who left
the city on Tuesday, of last week, in
forms tho Grenada Appeal that the re
ports of the Memphis press, bad ns they
are, oot, tain but littlo of the actual des
truction of property that has occurred.
Eleven houses wore destroyed on Sat
urday night-, and tbirteon on Sunday-
night. Tho fire alarms wero sounded
every few minutes during the latter
night, and tho peoplo kept constantly
aroused, 'to mnke matters still ivoise,
the fire department haB been rendered
entirely inefficient by the destruction of
the hose—the soldiery having wantonly
pierced almost every section with their
bayonets. It is understood that the
8th Missouri, composed of the St. Lou.
is roughs, aro tho principal depreda
tors; and us they seem to be uncontrol
lable by their officers, and have ex
pressed their determination to burn
and destroy, the alarm of the commu
nity is unprecedented.
On Monday the levee was crowded
witn steamers, giving to the wharf an
air of business rarely over soon there.
The Platte Valley and Bello Memphis
took up a considerable quantity of eot-
ton. Among tbo oraft was tho Metro
politan, loaded with Confederate pri
goners. During tho time sho remained
anchored opposite the city, eight dead
bodies were sent ashore for burial.
Gen. Sherman, who had been absent
few days, returned to tho oily on Sun
day.
Tho liquor saloons were closed for
forty-eight hours, at ten o'clock on
Tuesday, 25th, by tho provost marshal.
This was doiyo, it was surmised, in or-
dor to keep the troops sober, so that
they could tako up their line of march
southward yesterday morning.
Old Abe’s Message—Ills plnu for
Saving the Union.
Richmond. Deo. 5.—Lincoln in his
messago to (’op grows ays:
Relations with foreign nations are
more snctisfii'otory than a nation so un
happily distracted might liaveappehen-
ded. In June thero wero some ground,
to expect that tho Maritime powers-
whioh liatt universally recognized in
surgents ns beligerents, would soon
rcocil from that position ; but tempo
rary reverses to tho national arms havo
delayed that aet of simplo justiee.—
Our struggle has boon contemplated by
foreign natiens with reference less to
its own merits than to its supposed ef
feots on those nations.
Tho organisation of banking associa
tions, to which tho government might
furnish, circulating notes or security of
United States bonds, deposited in tho
Treasury, is recommended. These
notes being uniform in appearance and
security, and convertible always into
coin, would protect lubor against the
evils of a vicious currency, and facili
tate commorce by cheap and safe ex
changes. In his inaugural address, ho
briefly pointed out tho total inadequacy
of disunion as a remedy for difference!
between tho peoplo of tho two sections.
Tho language is repeated. Ho says
there is no lino straight or crooked,
suitable for national boundary, upon
which to divide. Tho fact of separa
tion, if it comas, gives up ono part, of
the Bcccding section, the fugitive sluvo
olause, along with other constitutional
obligations, upon the section seceded
from. Another objection to separation
two nations is that tho pooplo of tho
greut iutcrioi- region would be cut off
from outlote on the coast hy embarrass
ing trade regulation?. After further
discussion of the subject, ho sayB our
strifo pertains ,o ourselves, to the pass
ing generation of mon, and it can,
without convulsion, be pushed forovor
with tho passing of - ono generation.—
Ho than recommends that congress
proposo an amendment to the constitu
tion providing for abolishing slavery
before the year nineteen hundred, own
ers to bo compensated, and all slaves of
disloyal owners, now eiy'oying actual
freedom, bo forever froe. This propo
sition is discussed at length to show
that it would shorten tho war and per
petuate peace.
Neither war nor the proceedings on-
dor the proclamation of Sept. 224 will
be stayed because of the recommenda
tion of this plan. He closes as follows:
"We say that we are for the union.—
The world will not forgot that we say
this. We know how toszvethe Union.
The world knows we do know how tu
save it. We, even here, hold tho pow
er and beor the responsibility. Wo
shall nobly save or meanly bso tho Inst
hope of earth. Other means may sue
oced. This cannot fail. Tho way is
plain, peaceful, generous, just—a way
which, jr followed,the world will forever
applaud and God forever bless.
A Ilorrld Murder
On Saturdny flight last Confederate
.States Marshal for Georgia, Thomas L.
Ross, was shot dead at the Kenncsaw
House in Marietta.
It appears that four young men, nil
citizens of Atlanta, went to Marietta
to have a spree, (No much for the
Legislature allowing men license to
keep opoq murder pons.) After get
ting drunk enough, thoy went into the
hotel and raised a difficulty with tho
proprietor. Ono of tho party, Dick
Hammond, cut tho hotel man severoly
in 80vcn placer. During the fight Mr.
Ross, who was a most excellent officer,
a* well as clover gentleman, command
ed the peace, when some ono of tho
party put out the light, and Joe liar-
rison put a pistol cioso to tho body of
Mr.-Ross and shot him dead.
The party attempted to escape, but
being too drunk to effect it, they wero
all arrested and brought to jail.
This party consists, of four young
men—Joe Harrison, Dick Hammond,
Dick Stegall, and Jimmy Loyd, and
nro what peoplo cull "fast young men”
allot them, except,perhaps,Stegall,
wero members of the Gate City
Guards.
Wo do not know where llnrrison
came from. The first wo over know
of him, was his arrest and confinement
in jail hero several years ago for the
murder of young Ilummond, a brother
of Dick. Wo believe ho .was acquitted,
lie t'-cn went to Texas, where he killed
a man in cold blood and then returned
to this placo, where ho has cut and
shot n number of mon. Since serving
out his twelve months in the army, he

Washington, Nov. 27.—The current
talk to day in military oircles is in re
gard to the expediency of tho army of
the Potomac going into winter quarters,
Late events seem to hare strengthen
ed the probabilities of such policy being
adopted, and inferences to the same
effect are druwn from he President’s
visit to Aquia creek.
The President will, in ids message,
earnestly recommend tho passage of a
bankrupt law by Congress.
Reports received here from tho front
to-day locate Jackson’s advance guard
at Bardstown, on tho Orange and Alex

nock, in a position lo endeavor to hold
Seigel’s force from advancing, or to full
back to Lee’s assistance. *
Richmond, Dec. 0.—The London
Times says: Wo cannot look upon tho
proposal of tho French Emperor ns
wholly useless, as it called forth such
clear opinions from tho two .lending
nations of Europe, and also gives rea
son to believe that Europe, which the
Republicans affect- so much to admiro,
is equally opposed to the policy at
Washington. The Morning Herald
has been here following his profession^
J9'The N. York World has a des
patch from Washington which says it is
understood there that upon the reopen
ing of Congress, resolutions will be pas
sed calling for the reports Gon. McClel
lan has made from time to time, and
which have been suppressed in the war
office. Not only will his reports bo
called Tor, but also the correspondence
botwcon Gen. McClellan and tho head
of tho War Department, and the official
letters which passed between Lincoln
and the commanding general, it is
believed that whenever the publication
is made it will form a curious inside
view of tlio whole conduct of the war,
and wilt excite much attention not only
in 'his country, hut also in Europe.

Latest trom Vicksburg.—We learn
from a friend just from Vicksburg that
the most formidahlo preparations have
beon made for giving the enemy a warn
reception in case of another attack.
Tfae woods, which in measure last winter
served to conceal the movements of tho
Yankee gunboats, have beon entirely

shelter within range of the city. Our

wero dragged from their home and
hanged No reason is assigned tojustify
the bloody outrage. Mr. Kerso was^po
of the wealthiest farmers in Worth

in his neighborhood, having been ac
cused of harboring deserters from the
