A Proclamation by Joscpb 10. Brown,
Governor of Georgia.
To the Officers and Members of the
General Assembly :
I am satisfied that developments
have clearly shown the necessity for
further legislation at an early day, to
soeure the use of all our productive
labor tliis year in the’ eultivution of
our lands In grain and other articles
necessary to sustain life, and not in
cotton, tobacco, or liko productions,
and to prevent tho destruction of food
by distillation.
As tho public exigencies do therefore,
in tny opinion, rcquiro that tho Gener
al Assembly convene at an eurly day
than fixed for your meeting whon you
last adjourned, I issue this, my. Procla
mation, requiring you and eaoh of you,
lo asietnblo in your respective Halls in
the Cnptol, in this city, on Wednesday
tho 25th day of this molith, at 10
o’clock, A. M.
Given under my hand nod the Great
Seal of tho Slnto, at tho Capitol in
the city of Millcdgcvtllo, this Uth
day of March, in tho year of our
Lord eighteen hundred and sixty
tii ree.
By the Governor. J. E. Brown.
N. C. Bernntt, Secretary of Stute.
flaiP'Thc Chicago Times says if Gran-
fhculd capture the wliolo Confederate
sorco at Vicksburg; if UosenCrnns wore
to annihilate Bragg, Hooker march in.
to .Richmond, and Foster and Hunter
take Charleston and Savannah, these
victories would hut forerun a morq des
pernto wrr than we have yet- known.—
The armies required to win such victo-
ios would bo requirod to maintain
them. Tho South would no sooner re
turn to the Union then than now. The
Times certainly told tho truth this
time.
Northern News.—Tho Northern
pRpers say that tho engravers now prin
ting about a million and a quarter a
day of Government, currency, of which
$205,000 is in postal curu-ney. They
have not commenced on I la- <mo hun

Interesting for Speculators.—The
following admonition of "An Old Mer
chant,” through the Mobile Advertiser
& Register, is timely and truthful, and
should ho heeded:
It will not require actual peace or
final opening of tho blockade to bring
prices down. The first tangible indica
tion of such a result would convert
every holder into a seller, and drive all
demand from. the mnrkot, and that
within 24 hours after such a belief had
settled Upon the public mind. Let all
concernedmate a note of this; when this
time comes, as come it will, such a
sudden tumble in prices—such a molt
ing of pnst profits—such a “wiping out”
ot pnst fortunes, will he interesting to a
fieeccd puhlje, and a caution to all
speculators,-save a fortunato few who
have had the wisdom and prudence to
'stand from undor! in due time.”
Effects ol tlte War at the North.
While we are suffering the miseries
springing from a deranged and redun
dant currenoy it is sweet, says the
Richmond Examiner, to know thnt tho
hateful Yankees, the author of all our
woes, have not escaped similar evils.
From a gentleman who loft Now York
ten day ago, wo have received an in
teresting and highly gratifying account
of the condition of the currency and
the market of that groat metropolis,
which being its centre ef trade and
wealth, is a certain index of the condi
tion of uffairs throughout the North.
Our informant says that tho price of
every article in the market has risen
two hundred and a great many of thorn
three hundred per cont. Renl estate
is hold at fulmlous prices, nnd will not
bo sold for greenbacks at any price. A
price of cqin is no more scon in circula
tion than it is with us. The small
change consists of postal currency,
individual notes, bar-room tickets,
milk tickets, Ac. Bank notes have
long disappeared from circulation, and
are hoarded by individuals, who are
afraid to offer them for sale, lest they
should be arrested for attempting tq
depreciate tho precious groonbaoks.
Tho North is Buffering nnothoc evil of
almost equal magnitude. Tho Alabama,
Florida and Retribution have sent dis
may lo the hearts of tho underwriters,
and they refuse utterly to insure goods
in Yankee bottoms. Consequently,
tho immense Ynni.co merchant navy is
idle and lies rotting at the wharves.
Thousands of men aro thrown cut of
employment, and the suffering in all
the coast towns is terrible.
But by fur tho greatest evil that iif-
flicts Northern communities is tho
universal distrust, which, liko a moral
pestilence, pervades all classes. They
aro destitute of confidenco in their cur
rency, their , array, their rulers and
themselves, and with the gloomest ap
prehensions look forward to the fu
ture.
Our own ills seem rnoro endurable
when wo know that our enemies aro
suffering, oven in a greater degree.
Raleiou, March 15.—The .State Jour
nal’s Kinston correspondent says, Gen.
D. H. Hill came upon the enemy’s
outposts at Deep Gully on tho Trent
road, eight miles this side of Newborn,
yesterday morning. The enemy's forco
was four companies of infantry nnd one
light battery. They became panic
stricken and tied across the stream
destroying die bridge. Gen. Hill lnid
it quiokly fixed and pushed on a£ter
tho enemy. The General’s horse was
twice struck with minio balls. A Ynn
keo und a "buffulo” who were espturod
hud been brought to Kinston. They
report the enemy nt Newbern 12,00*0
strong. Gen. Hill was moving
Newbern.
Port Hudson, March 15—3 A. M.—
Bombardment commenced yesterday nt
two o’clock, P. M„ nnd continued up
to 5 P. M. The i-nomy fired, slowly.
Our batteries had not replied up to
that hour; but tit 12 last night a most
desperate engagement took place. The
enemy endeavored to pass our batteries
under cover of darkness. The firing
was most lotrifio and lasted two hours.
One gunboat succeeded in passing in a
damaged condition. Tho Yankee
sloop "Miss” was set fivo to nnd burned
to the water’s edge in front of our but
teries. One large vessel was completely
riddled nnd a third badly crippled and
with the rest driven back. At2o’clock
tli* enemy withdrew. Our victory is
completo nnd glorious. As far ns is
known there is no casualties on our
part.
Tho boat that passed up is doubtless
so disabled ns to render her achieve
menls worthless.—This morning our'
cavalry brought in,3G men and one
Midshipman of the destroyed frigate
"Miss”—several severely wounded.
Charleston, Murcli 10.—The steamer

Republican)—Columbia. Tonm, March
12.-—Four brigades of theeneftiy, under
Got). Granger, endeavored yesterday to
hem in Van Dorn, ju6t across Duck
river, knowing that lie had no means
of crossing. Our artillery was kept in
position until yesterday * morning nnd
replied to the Ynnkco firo. The river
was then crossed by n ferry. The out

SECOND DISgSTCH.-

enemy tire crentlv surprised and exas
perated at Van Dorn’s escape. They
clurned to Franklin to protact tlioir
ear, nnd committed many depreda
tions, burning houses which Van Dorn
had occupied as his headquarters.
Tho Nashville papers state that the
enemy’s loss at Spring Hill wus only
300, and that the Cimfederates had
three negro regiments, who fought
bravely.
Thu. four brigades sent in pursuit of
Van Dorn have returned.
CiiATTANoortA, March 14.—All.is quiet
