Tho low grounds on cither bunk was cover ed, and the waters were within a few I foot of Broad Street, in Maiden Lane. The rising ceased ut 12 o’clock on ITIuirsdny, and tho waters are now with- ] in their banks. We tiro infaimed by i old resident, of the place, wlior ,1ms I observed it, that there is u curious oir- leumstanco connected with tlio heavy 1 freslious in our rivers, which is that tlio I rising always censes ut about 12 o'clock* I cither in tho night or in tlio day.

I —r y ~ ■ aro from alettor from a'subscriber, and contain facts which we think our authorities I ought to look into. The blockade on our ports is bad enough, but the block- ado on tho railroads, webeliovo,is doing us more harm at present. For our I Wo, we cannot 1 see why a-portion of the cars on a road cannot* ho detailed to ',P Rvoducc, at least, so ns to eaualizo su PPlies somewhat in'different por- hons of the bounty, | Ahcr alluding r to-a littje dun, ’ivo ho says: Don’t stop the papier for, beside the »ciieral and local news it brings mo, I I "°uld not miss our friond Lt. Dwinell letters for twice tho subscription. I know lie 1ms returned to his post, or I should not write so flatteringly to the “Editor.” Yet I must say I linvo ever found liis communications both inter esting and reliable, which is more than can be said of many “army correspon dents.” He has never received his duo for his labor, and I frequently find in other sheets, extraots from his 1st* tors, without the proper ere lit. I sup* poso the difference is, he it a correspond ent beloiir/iny to the army, but not of tho army c/ correspondents. I regret to see your section still much in need of corn, which wo could send you in abundance, if transportation could be obtained. This state of things could certainly be remedied to some extent, and if it is not, greater evils must yet follow. I lourn that there are o /or one hundred thousand bushels of corn, sucked and stored away in Albany alone, in close and often damp rooms, which must soon bo mined, unless sunned and dried, or shippod and used. And planters through tlio country aro hold ing corn in the same dangerous condi tion—all for the want of transportation.— There must be bad management some \yhere. I applied not long since to an agent on S. W. It. It., to know how long it would probably be, beforo I could got off corn I liad purchased for u friend, (a planter, not a speculator,) in your section, Tho agent replied to me tliut lie did not know, tliut they, (tho railroad,) then had several trains of cars standing on tlio track in Atlan ta, which they oould not get unloaded, and so long as the road was thus impo dud in its work, it wus impossible to say when or how, inuch corn could bo shipped. The pcoplo hero wore urged to plant* eorii lust y ear, they did so-they are now Urged again to plant corn, plant corh, all of which is Well.’ Yet whilst they *oo then- produce ruining on tlieir premises, or wuvting with such speed, in tlieir warehouses, for want of ship ment, knowing* at tlio same time that their friends, in distant parts of the state, aro suffering for the want of it, it gcould not bo expected that they would be much encouraged, to bend their energies to tho production ot pro visions, seeing them thus disposed of, and 1 am fearful they will prefer a less perishable production, though it be, in the prenent condition of ton* country, less patriotic to do so. Only give them transportation, take away their pro duce, und though it |rn< in heaps, yet if i. roc not under ..their, own eyes, iny word for it, this part of, South Western Georgia, will do her part, to support our people ut home und our armies in the Held. But if the bread they'have so pntr : - otically prepared must become a stench in tlieir own nostrils, blame them not if they, for the luturc prevent a repu tation of tho same. I am no planter, yet I know tlieir feelings—allow me to say too i am no speculator, not even a trader, utid liuvu only tliut interest' in this mutter, common to every man in our common country. Tlic Legislature to bo Convened From tlio special telegram from-Mil ledgoville to tlio ’’Intelligencer,” pub lished on Thursday, it was Eccn that Gov. Brown has convened tho Legisla ture of Georgia on the 25th "of this month. By this action on the part of Gov. Brown, tho Legislature will as sembly fivo weeks earlier than the time appointed by tho Legislature at. its Session in November and December last - for the meeting of tho adjourned Session, to wit: the 22d of April. L. Petligru, ono'of the most eminent lawyers of South Carolina, died in Charleston on Monday evening, in tho seventy-fourth year of ills age. Teachers’ ‘ Convention*.—We seo it stated that a General Convention of the Teachers of tho.Confederate States will bo held at Columbia, 8. C., on Tuesday, the 28 th April, 1803. Tho object of the Convention is to take into considera tion the best means for supplying the necossary text books for schools and aolioges, for uniting their efforts to ad vance the cause of education in tho Confederacy- Artillerv Experiments.—The big gUri of the steamer Richmond^ ,on the James River, lias boen tried .with am ple success. A target, platocl witii eight inches of iron, was penetrated by the powerful projoctilo fired from the gun, at a distancoof eight hundred yards! It was first charged with fiftoen pounds of powder, then with twenty, nnd final ly with Uvonty-ftve; but the twenty pound ohm-go was found to bo tlio most effective,—Chas. Mcrc'y. From the 3d Git. Cavalry.* Manchester PiiCB, Camp Fairfiki.d. March Bill, 1803. Deaii CbuniEn:— After a march of seven days, attended, with soveral in terruptions by rainy days and flush streams, wo ronched the command on the 3d inst-., finding it in camp and on duty, four miles north Wartraoe. Qur trip was agreeable, notwithstanding tho Inauspices of weather nnd water.— Having, with a single exception, al ways succeeded in socuring rations for tho mon, and forngo for tlio horse*.— Occasionally some of tho boys would, i complain of*TooUng ill, and ns one of) the company had been seized, while in J camp at Romo, witii that most dates- tible and loathsome of all diseasos, Small Pox, the men would manifest a painful uneasiness, involuntarily, sus- poating an immediate eruption and a unanimous infection. Fortunately they have all recovered, and tlio dread of Small Pox, may now be numbered with the things to be remomberod. Our arms and clothing, which we supposed, hud preceded us to 'Shelby* ville, have not yet reported, and a de tail has been made to go in search of, arrest and bring forward the delin quents. We have nevertheless, re sumed our regular duties, and the boys fall in and -“right dress” witii the non chalance of veterans. We aro still brigaded with Generul Whorlon, and occupy the front of Gen* Bragg’s centre. Wo havo constant skirmishing, and there is never a day, but we cun sit quietly in camp aiid count tlio progress of urlillery dueling. It is remarkable how readily u man be comes indifferent to tho approximation of danger, and bow strangely at'euse bo will contemplate an approaching con flict. Indeed a soldier is a positive in sulation. His like, is not to bo found elsewhere, than on tlio “tontcll field.” llitf strong individuality ; the points of eburaoter devoloped; (some of them long enough to hang your hat on) - ids carelessness cf dress and manners , his love of fun uml frolic; his growing indolauce and startling profanity ; his deviltry (and daring ; all conspire to give confidence to tlio country,-during our present perils,but inevitably arouse in the inind of the christinn' philoso pher, a misgiving as to the ultimate result of the Wild and inhumane schooling. You will doubtioss be advised of Col. Crawford's resignation,' before this reaches you. Ho does not feel tliut justice was accorded him in the inves tigation of liis surprise and capture, at F(ew Haven, and has consequently witii drawn from tlio field, The regiment, generally, regret Col.-Crawford's retire ment, but find in Col Ken non, liis suc cessor, a gallant leader and a kind com mander. Col. Crawford carries with him the lespect of liis whole command. Col. Keiinon is greeted with tkolovo and ad miration of every trooper in the regi ment. He is a good mao and a glori ous soldier. Long may he lire to lead us. , Gen; Van Dorn is playing rip with the abolitionist on t'. e left. Six days ago, ho cupturod Franklin with 2,000 of tlio scamps ; und yesterday lie “took in out of the wet,” five regiinents of infantry, numbering 3,100 men. This capture was between Franklin and Brudyvillc. Wu Lave not yet received lull particulars. We liavo emphatically, to fight for a living here. The fifteen.milos interve ning botweon our foroos and tho Yan kees, being the only source of forage for both armies. Our wagons aro ul ways attended by a guard of two or more regiinents. Wo frequently cap ture Yankee trains, laden with the ‘•staff of life,” and occasionally suffer ourselves, this identical misfortune.— it is a.iiict, that the Yunkees fight more desperately for corn than they do for the Union. We aro anticipating a genoral en gagement hereabouts, as soon as the mud and weather will admit. Tho rains are- constant, and tlio result is, you seo nothing but mud. Wo eat mud j drink mud, sloop in mud, and a man involuntarily concludes that ho is made of mud instead of- “dust.” Tlio Cothran Dragoons aro doing well. A moro active nnd efficient company-, has never left your countv. Capt. Boo- ton is notoriously a “model captain.” Lt. Bearden has endeared himself to his men by frequent acts of kindness and gallant daring... Lt. Napiers still on furlough with bjs wound, is .an abso lute embodiment of heroism. Q. M. Serg't .Sandifer.-left ‘or Rome this morning, on business connected with his department. if, Editorial Correspondence. Casit 8th Georgia Regiment, near 1 . Richmond, Va., March 10. j Dear Courier:—After various hops and mishaps, diverso delays 'and petty annoyances—none of which, however, are particularly interesting, exoept-vex- atiously so to the sufferer—your cor respondent arrived safely in camp on the ovoning of Saturday, tlio 8th inst. Tho cars on all the roads aro intensely crowded, and of course there is anji amount of pulling, hauling, “scrouging” nnd tearing about at overy place where the passengers change cars, every mau having determined that he will have a seat at any rate. Some who aro partie. ulnrly “slfarp” seldom fail, but it Is good average luck to get seats over two rands out of three. l’robully gentlemen never appeared so gallant to the ladi.-s ns they now do in travelling. If a indy, about n sta tion, is seen looking after her baggage, or trying to press her wny to tlio tiokel office, or doing anything olsa that seems to indicate tliut sho lias no gentleman uccompaning her to attend to buc|i tilings, at least n half dozen gentlemen' are sure' to tender their services. But it must he confessed, that ib done not so much from motives of pure polite ness as from the selfish desiro of there by securing a seat in the ladles’ ear.— Thera is generally bat one env In a train reserved for ladies, and ihto this no man is allowed to enter unless lie bo the escort of a lady, and lienco the great anxiety. to secure a lady friend who will do tho favor of pussing -Bjm by the guard, into this ^muoh coveted coach of pleasant comfort. The general rule now seems to be to miss connections at. tho termini of the various roads and the exceptions to mnke them. Tho writer was delayed at Augusta, Charlotte, Rulieigh and Petersburg. Of all those placeB Au gusta seems most to be in tlio enjoy meui of peaceful ease and comfort j perhaps no city in tho Confederate States has suffered less from the devastating effects of tho present horrid war. Thqro aio more lanoy dry goods nnd dandyfied looking men in Petersburg than in any other place on' tlio route, and yot .thero aro so ninny hospitals nnd broken down soldiers there that the general Appear ance is greatly saddened,,and every right thinking man is vexed at the contrasts lie iocs, between foppishly dressed citizens and tho diseased,-care worn, poorly clad, but brave defenders of the “swell heads" around them.— It may bo wrong to desire to thrash them, yet it is very provoking for a soldier to see fat-, slick-honded cltizeWs strutting ubout und bearing no evidence in their personal appearance that thoy are bearing tlieir pnrt in the present struggle, but are, on tho contrary, taking advantage, of the absence of those ip the field to amass fortunes for themselves. Petersburg is not the only plucc whore tho soldier’sees these hateful-sights, but there aro more of ilieni there than in some other-places. Our present camp is on the Peters burg Track, five miles from Richmond and two and a half from Drury’s Bluff, on only tolerably good , ground und with n very short supply of good wood. The men all have tents with chimneys to them, and on the whole, iq a very comfortable copdition. They are near ly all in excellent lioalth and spirits, and more men are now reported for duty than nt any ether time since tho battles before Richmond. The Miller Rifles now have in camp forty-five men, tlio Floyd Infantry thirty-two, and the Light Guards lorty-ono. There is no knowing bow soon or where wo may move, yet : there aro no indications of any immediate depnr til re from this place. .Tlio hojs atq having a good time gen orally; Two from, a company' are allowed to visit town every day, and most of them have too little money to be anxious fer a second trip in tho samo month. Yesterday .was beautiful; shining blight and pleasant ns May, but to-day we have cold vain, and sleet, and a gloomy prospect for our small wood piles. ,M. t). Prisoners’ Convention.—The prison ers of State Who suffered incarceration in the various forts and prisons of the United States Government, havo form ed themselves into an association for tho purpose of concerting plans to ob tain vedvess for their grievances. They were to hold a grand convention in Now York on Wednesday, March 4th, when the subjects of* their wrongs would be fully discussed, qprt somo play to obtain satisfaction imrped up- payment of postage on letters sent to soldiers. Tho Impressment bill was considered iii secret ’session, and Wig. fall’s substitute adopted for tlio House Grenada, March 3.— Memphis dates bill-yens 12 nays 2. After the doors of the 25th ult. havo been received.— ''’ore opened, tho Sonato bill to grant They report tho river rising rapidly, the principal officers of each of the and witliin ton foot ofliigh water mark.

The steamer Bollo Memphis was cap tured by a pnrtizun force nt Island No. 27. Afterwerd, liov engino was rovers ed, nnd sho broke loose, when only a few of those engaged in her capture were aboard, who jumped off. Tho partisan released all the captured but tlio pilot, who was hold ns a hostage for their comrades on board. Gen. Grant has rescinded tlic order suppressing the Chicago Times, whioli journal denounces the conscript bill. Sir Robert Feel has written a letter to Lord Palmerston, advocating a re cognition of the Confederacy and tlio London Chronicle indorses Davis’ mes sage. 'lie Taris,journals say that recogni tion must not bo delayed beyond the cottoq planting season. Cot ton was easier in Liverpool—mid dlings being quoted dt 231. Grenada, Maroh 4, 18G3.—Tlio Chic ago Times of the 20th ultimo, lias boon roceivcd. Tlio Now York World tins been sup- ircssed in tho army of tho Fotomao, iy order of Hooker. Gov. Robinson, of Kentuoky, indor ses Col. Gilbert’s dispersal of the Dem ocratic convention of that Stnto. It is reported tlio rebels havo again invaded Kontuoky, but wiiat they aro doing, or their strength, is unknown. Some say lnrge forces occupy Nicholas- villo, Winchester, nnd Richmond, and threaten Lexington and Frankfort; others say a force of a thousand strong occupied Winchester, nnd after a skir mish disappeared. Leo and Jackson nvo still at Froder ioksburg and it is believed at .Washing- tou that tho Con federate foroes there have boon but littlo diminished. A bill hns passed the Federal Sennto. discharging the State prisoners how in custody. Confederate privateers are reported in the Calcutta papers to be cruising in Bengal Bay. Hamlin has gono to Mmne. It is said liis main opject is to get white officers for negro regiments. Colonel Shanks "and most of the officers of the Eighth Kentuoky cavalry havo resigned. A Cineint uti dispatch dated tho 24tli, says: Two divisions left Memphis to day for Vicksburg, The - Times Ims intelligence from Yazoo pass to the 19th ult., via Cairo. A largo number of transports passed up for the purpose of bringing reinforce ments. The mortality in tho Federal army on the river continues large. They are buried two feet deep, without coffins. Another Cincinnati dispatch, dated tho 24th, says: The trains from Cen tral Kentucky bring several hundred refugees j including the leading Union men from Montgomery, Madison, Clark, Bourbon and Fayette counties. The dorks of the courts .have also brought their papers and the brokers tlieir money. The Federal troops have fallen hack to Lexington, burning tho public property they were unnblo to bring away. It is believed that Cyn- thlnnn will be nttucked first. Tho invading force is estimated at 23,000. It is believed that Bragg is moving a portion of his force into the Slate via McMinnville. Roscncrnnz w.U r.ot fall back, but trust the defense of the State to Granger, Cox and Wright. —There aro only eight thousand troops in the State, ana they are unconcertra- ted. A depot and two envs were burned at South Union, and tho Clarksville ani Bowling Green railroad. Tho Louisville Democrat learns that Longstrcot is lending ten thousand men into Kentucky. * B.

Longstreet’s division is reported at Knoxville, with tho intention of ma king an invasion into Kentucky through Cumberland Gap. A Cincinnati dispatch, dated Fob, 25th, says: Two regiments of cavalry will go to Kentucky to day. Tho refu gees are returning to tbeir homes. Captain C. Morgan, a brother to Gen. John II.

Richmond, March 10.—In the Son ate to day, a bill passed requiring pra* mont. The House passed tho Sennto joint resolution relutivo to procuring irovisions, with an amendment request- ng tlio President to givo producers as surance that when it became necessary to impress provisions or forage, just compensation should be made, accord ing to fair mnrkot valuation. >. Baiksdnle introduced a joint res olution declaring the firm cohviotion of thoyeoplo of the Confederate States in the justico of tlioir causo and thoir confidence in final triumph, and that they will continue to mako whatever sacrifice that may bo required; that wo would accord a respectful conside ration to any proposition looking to an accommodation of tlio difficulties with the North, but preserving bur'separate nnd distinctive national character; and whenever any state bordering on the Mississippi shall desist from the present unprovoked war, wo will secure to them the freo navigation of the Mississippi river—referred to tho Committeo cn Foroign Affairs.
