FRIDAY MORNING, AUGUST28. <r V “ERROR CEASES TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN REASON IS LEFT HEE TO COMBAT IT”—Jeferso% VOLUNTEEBING OF EXEMPTS. I n a late exchange we lind the proposition i.»r nil tlicr.3 whohavo employed substitutes, or wlio arc exempt from any cause, to or- • uni/. • themselves into companies and regi- nnuiis, and tender their services to the Con federate Government for six or twelve m.inllis, as they may deem best. This idea it one that, il acted upon, would not only prove to the world the patriotism x>f our people, but would also give us an army so lonnidiible in numbers that we would be enabled to lake the offensive and drive from our ijoil every Yankee now on it, and close i he war before their time of enlistment had expired. Besides which it would.be a gratify ing assurance to the men who are in the‘ar my ior lho war, that those at home have not determined that they shall bear the whole brunt of this contest, but are willing to rise and aid them in the hour of danger. in supporting this proposition, and advis ing V. ■■ people to act upon it, there i*: no no oessity for us to point out the danger that makes such a course necessary. Our people uro well aware that at this present moment every man who 13 able to bear arms in de- Icnso of his country, should rise and do so. They arc wll aware that on a successful i 4sue of this war depends the salvation of i he South, Let the shattered and decimated ranks of our army be unsupported and force I it numbers will overpower them; then will a reign of oppression ensue that will cause those who are now backward in aid ing their brothers in the field, to bitterly la- niciit, and to reproach themselves for not obeying the calls of freedom and honor, which, had they responded to, would have spared them the bitter humiliation that, all subject to the tyrant’s rod, must surely feel. We loll the people of the South that every moment of delay is giving aid and comfort to the enemy. For, while we are remaining idle at home, the Yankee government is quietly mastering their Conscripts, for the purpose of crushing the gallant spirits who have so long stood like a wall of fire be tween them and their desire for subjugating us. lu calling on the people who are exempt to volunteer their services for a short period to the Confederacy, we are not appealing to them to perform other than their duty. We it re oulliug upon them to perform that which their country demands—what patriotism should prompt, and what jus tice to the cause and to our brave soldiers require.' U is universally stated that there are no loss than 150,000 substitutes in the Confed erate army, and, in accordance with that statement, there are no less than 150,000 hale and able bodied men in the Confeder acy, whose services in this hour ot emergen cy would be of incalculable value. Upon every man who has thus paid another to fight his billies a stigma is attached. Let them now, if they desire to remove that stigma, volunteer their services to the Con federate Government or forever after receive the well merited scorn and contempt of every true man in the South. And as soon us the war is over, an outraged army will vi=it upon these “exempts” that just punish ment that their cowardice deserved. EMERSON ETHRIDGE. From ihe Philadelphia Prts’. Memphis, July 15.—It will be remember ed that Emerson Ethridge is one of the most noted politicians in this State, and, as a stump speaker, he has but. few superiors among the Tennesseeans. In consideration of these qualities, the committee invested with power to invite speakers to the Gth of June celebration in this city, extended an invitation to Mr. Ethridge, lie replied to the chairman of the committee, Mr. Tom- eny, to the effect that the meeting and its objects were humbugs. Tins drew a note from Mr. i\, in which he set up liis short comings, political and social, to the public gaze, in anything but coiumendary lan guage to Mr. E. Mr. Tomeny Ua3 received the following reply: New Yoke, June 25.—Tomeny : You are a contemptible little puppy. Tim day will come when you will crawl in your hole and pull in Ihe hole alter you. You are “cutting a figure” about Memphis now, but will be called to account. You ar# an unprincipled scamp! You have the impudence to talk about the’“galling tyranny” you were un der betore the damned Abolitionists (like yourself) took Memphis. The people there knew nothing of oppression and “tyranny” until the “Northern vandals” occupied the place. Your patriotism is measured by dol lars and cents. How much did you make on sugar? Oh, you scamp, I would like to get-a fair chance at you. • E. ETHRIDGE. Fighting Strength of the Confedk- h\<sv.—Mr. DeBow, editor of DcBow’s Re view, has made a calculation of the fighting population of our country. He makes a very t iir deduction for our losses in consequence of the position oi Maryland, Kentucky, Mis souri, and portions of Virginia, Tennessee, Louisiana, and Arkansas. He then show's ! «at our m tie,population between the ages >>. 18 and 45 amounts to 1,181,500. De ducting one lburth for exempts.(a very large allowance,) we Lave S3Q,0G0 men. VY r ekave tost many men in the war; but the liaturq} n >w ot our population has gone far to re- pkice them. During the two years of hos- tilitics uot le,s than 120,000 males have pas- S' ll trooi under to over 18 years of age. Mr. 1 eliow estimates trom these figures, “iu no event during a long war can the Conlederatc strength be reduced under 700,003, if the people are in earnest.” This is an army ample tor all our necessities. J What cause is there to despond ? An Affecting Scene.—The Rebel gives the following affecting description of the first intimation given to the citizens of Chattanooga of the presence of the er emy on the 21st inst.: One of the most impressive scenes we have ever witnessed, occurred iu the Pres byterian church on yesterday. The servi ces were being held by the Rev. Dr. Palm er, of New Oi leans, and the pews and aisles were crowded with officers and soldiers, privalo citizens, ladies and children. A prayer had been said, aud one of the hymns sung. The organist was absent—“and I will be thankful,” continued the minister, “if come one in the congregation will raise the tune.” The tune was raised; the whole congregation joined in singing, as in days gone by; the sacred notes rose in humble melody from the bouse of God, swelling their holy tribute to his glory, and dying away at fast like echoes of departed days; the second, or what is known as the long prayer, was begun, when out upon the calm, still air, there came an alien sound—the sul len voice of an hostile gun—ringing from the north bank of the river, and echoing back and back among the far off glens of Lookout Peak. It was sudden; it took ev ery one by surprise; for few’, if. any, expect ed the approach of an enemy. The day was one of lasting aud prayer; the public mind was upon its worship. Its serenity had not been crossed by a shadow. And it w T as not until another and another of these unchristian accents trembled on the air, and hied themselves away to the hills, that it was generally realized that the ene my were shelling the’ town. Without a word of warning, in the midst of church service, while many thousands of men and women thronged the several places of public worship, the basest of-hu man foemen had begun an attack upon a city crowded with hospitals, and refugees from the bloody pathway of their march, and in no wise essential to a direct assault. There was a little disturbance in the gal leries; the noise in the streets grew louder, near the door, several persons, who had other duties, military or domestic, to look to, hastily withdrew; the mass of the con gregation, however, remained in their pla ces, and the man of God continued his pray er. It w T as impressive in the extreme.— There he stood, this exile preacher fronfthe far South, with eyes aud hands raised to 'Heaven, not a muscle or expression chang ed, not a note altered, not a sign of confu sion, excitement, or alarm, naught but the calm, Christian face uplifted and full of the unconsciousness to all save its devotions, which beam from the soul of true piety. Not only the occasion, but the prayer, was solemnly, eloquefltly impressive. The rev erend doctor prayed, and liis heart was in his prayer; it was the long prayer, and lie did not shorten it; he prayed it to the end, and the Cannon did not drown it from those who listened, as they could not drown it from tho ear of God. He closed, and then, without panic or consternation, although excited and confused, the dense crowd sep arated, whilst shells were falling upon the right aud lclt All honor to this noble preacher, and to those brave women and children. To Peace and Submission Men.—Those who talk, or think about peace upon any oilier terms except such as are found at the point of the bayonet, have been often warn ed by the Coniederate press, of the bed of degradation and ruin which they are prepa ring for themselves. Hear what a Northern paper, opposed to the war, aud friendly to the South says. We quote from the New York Caucasian: At tlie present writing it would seem that filling to break Gen. Meade’s lines, Gen. Lee fell back to secure the stores which he gathered in Pennsylvania,the losses on both being about equal. Thus stand matters iu the East. In the West it is announced that Vicksburg has fallen. These two events have filled the War party with feelings of the utmost exultation and joy. They now fancy that the South lies helpless and bleed ing at their feet—that they have now only togive a few more telling blows, and the last rebel army will be exterminated, and nothing left to*stand between them and the helpless men, women and children of the Southern States. We know very well what the policy ofthe administration will be towards every State so soon as it falls into its power. Missouri, Maryland and Louisiana are vivid examples ot their hate, cupidity, tyranny and injustice. First the people w’ill be disarmed, and then when helpless, their property w il be seized and confiscated, and their homes and ances- tralacres turned over to the rapacious Yan kee. Their organs of public opinion will be suppressed; their tribunals of justice over thrown; their State laws set aside; and their State Constitutions ignored. In place of all these sits one supreme semi-military Judge, like Poabody at New Orleans, appointed at Washington, who, under the mocker y of the forms of justice, simply register the edicts of the abolition cabal at the capital. The whole theory of self-government is overthrown at a single blow. The right of the free expres sion of opinion, which every American claimed as inalienable, is tyrannically sub verted, and the privileges we claim for our selves inhumanly and wickedly claimed by others. How do you like “peace” on these terms ■. Is not death preferable, to any mm with a pint of crimson blood in hi3.veins ? The Exodus of Negroes in Mississip pi.—Omaha,” tho Vicksburg correspon dent of the New York World, sends a letter, bearing date July 2S, which contains some interesting statements about the negro acces sions to Grant’s army: " The return of the army from Jackson was the occasion ot a remarkable exodus ot ne grocs. There were few able-bodied young uieD, for the policy of makiug soldiers oi them has made at least nine out of ten as anxious to keep out of the way of the Yan kees as are many of their masters. But alt the old men and women, and young children iu the whole region of country arou nd Jack- son—thore who have been a burden upon their masters, aud will necessarily be depen dent upon our charity—accompanied the army on its return in large numoers. Every species of vehicle, and an untold number oi broken down horses and mules, were pressed into the service by these contrabands en route for Vicksburg. Their effects consisted of a wonderful quantity of old clothing, aud bedding, and dilapidated furniture, which they seemed to regard asoi inestimable val ue. ' The transportation, however, was not suf ficient for all, and hundreds carrying as many as possible of the inevitable bundles, trudged along on foot. All seemed anima ted by a fear that our rearguard would over take, pass, and. leave them behind, and suc£i a straining of energies, and hurrying aud bustling, was never before known among the whole black creation. The soldiers were particularly struck with the ludicrous ap pearance presented by the' darkies aud the tedium and fatigue of the marches were of ten relieved by good jokes cracked at their expense, which served to convulse the whole brigade with laughter. YVhat on earth we are to do with the im mense numbers of them coming within our lines is a problem which the future alone can so.ve. One thing, however, is certain. No matter liow worthless, or how incapa ble of self-support; they cannot be permit ted to starve, and whether collected iu one locality, or so equally distributed as to give each township in the North its proportion of paupers, they will be supported at the public expense. There is another thing about this negro question which is even more certain than the other proposition. The minds of all of them are filled with the most extravagant ideas of the North. It is to them a country of ease and plenty and happiness, and say and do what you will, as* soon as the military blockade is made less stringent, they will'swarm upon you like the locusts of the East. Until I came down here I believed that even if emancipated, the negroes would remain in the South. I now know better. Not one in ten will remain here. They will go North, if they have to accomplish the diai&ueo e.’~ foot. They don’t feel safe here, not even those whose owners are dead, and their fears impel them to go North. And then, their extravagant ideas, as bright and glow ing, as far as their own ease and happiness are concerned, as the warmest imagery of the Arabian Nights, will never permit them to remain in the South after the road to the North i3 open. The Citizens’Meeting inAtlansa.—It is very evident that there are numbers of disloyal persons in the Confederacy. They are generally to be found in our business cities. They plainly show by their conver sation, by tlie wishes they express, and by their acts, which speak louder than words, that they are not with us. Measures are on foot in various sections to rid our country of this class of persons. Meetings have already been held in three places in Georgia, and the justly indignant people have expressed their sentiments in a way that cannot be mistaken by disloyal persons. We have published the action of the people of Griffin and vicinity, also of the residents of Putnam county. 'Elsewhere will be found the reso lutions adopted by the citizens of Atlanta. It is time that every community had acted on the fact that ‘a secret foe is worse than an open enemy,’ and had taken measures to send all who can be proved to entertain sen timents injurious in the least to our cause beyond our lines. The people in Ibis’region sj^uhl not be slumbering when uur fellow-citizens else where are on ihe alert All should remem ber that the ‘price of liberty is eternal vigi lance.” We should treat our enemies as ene mies wherever we find them. Although they may have been in oar midst for a great many years, they have no claim upon our friendship. In lact they are less deserving of kind treatment than those of our foes we capture in the field. There is no mistake on one point, ‘a secret foe is more to be feared than an open enemy.”—Ghron. & Sent. Rice Flour, Rice Flour, ~| SAGES fresh £reun3 Rice Flour, f r 3a!e by J vV F. M.

SITrOJ, AdmV.- Au6 7-wtds* ADOBE: OF THE PRESIDENT TO THE SOL DIERS OP THE CONFEDERATE STATES. Aria lore than two years of a wartare scarcely quailed in the number, magnitude, and fear-il carnage of its battles—a warfare in whi*- 1 your courage and fortitude have il- Imiratc* your country and attiacted not only g: titude at home, but admiration abroad-your enemies continue a struggle in which our final triumph must be inevita ble. U duly elated with their recent suc cesses, iey imagine that temporary rever ses can mell your spirit or shake your de- term iaa’ion, and they are now gathering heavy masses l'or a general invasion in the vain b e that by a desperate effort success may at icugth be reached. You mow too well, my countrymen, what they n an by success. Their malignant rage aims at nothing less than the extermi nation <ff yourselves, your wives and chil dren. They seek to destroy what they can not pin ider. They propose as the spoils of victory iliut your homes shall be partitioned amom the wretches whose atrocious cruel lies lia\ e stamped infamy on their Govern ment. They design to incite servile insur- rectic T and light the fires of incendiarism whenever they can reach your homes, and they d -bauch the inferior race, hitherto do cile an r- mtented, by promising indulgence of the v :,i passions as the price of treach ery. Conscious of their inability to prevail by legitimate warfare, not daring to make peace lest they should be hurled trom their seats ot (K>wer, the men who now rule in Washington refuse .even to confer on the subject of putting aneDd to outrages which disgrace our age, or to listen to a suggestion tor conducting the war according to the usa ges of civilization. Feilow-cilizebS, no alternative is left you but victory or subjugation, slavery and the utter min of yourselves, your families, and your country. The victory is within your reach. You need but to stretch forth your hands to grasp it. For this end ail that is neces -ary is that those who are called to the field by every motive that can move the hu man heart, should promptly repair to the post of duty, should stand by their comrades now in front of the toe, aud thus so strength en the armies of t he Confederacy as to en sure access. The men now absent from, their posts would, if present in the field, suf fice to create numerical equality between our force and that of the invaders—and •when, with any approach to such equality, have we failed to be victorious ? I believe that but few of those absent are actuated by unwillingness serve their country, but that many have tound it difficult to resist the k mptation of a visit to their homes aud the loved ones from whom they have been so h lg separated; that others have left for ten. ; _rary attention to their affairs, with the intention of returning, and then have shrunk from the consequences of their vio_ latif .i of duty; that others again have left' their posts from mere restlessness and de sire of change, each quieting the upbraid- ing‘ of bis conscience by persuading him self that his individual services could have no : ’fluence on the general result. r i nese and other causes, although far less dis.' vacefnt than the desire to avoid danger, or V .escape from the sacrifices of patriot- isnijare, nevertheless grievous faults, and place the cause of our beloved country, and of everything we hold dear, in imminent peril. I repeat, that the men who now owe duty to their country, who have been called, but, and have absented themselves from their posts, are sufficient in number to se cure us victory in the struggle now impend ing. I call on you, then, my countrymen, to hasten to your camps, in obedience to the dictates of honor and of duty, and summon those who have absented themselves with out leave, or who have remained absent be yond the period allowed by their furloughs, to repair without delay to their respective commands, and I do hereby declare that I grant a general pardon and amnesty to all officers and men within the Confederacy, now absent without leave, who shall, with the least possible delay, return to their pro per posts of duty; but no excuse will be re ceived for any delay Beyond twenty days after the first publication of this proclama tion in the State in which the absentee may be at the date of the publication. This am nesty and pardon shall extend to all who have been accused, or who have been con victed and are undergoing sentence for ab sence without leave, or de3er?ion, excepting only those who have been twice convicted of desertion; Finally, I conjure my countrymen—the wives, mothers sisters and daughters of the Confederacy—to use their all-powerful in fluence in aid of this callj to add one crown ing sacrifice to those which their patriotism has so freely and constantly offered on their country’s altar, and to take care that none who owe service in the field shall be shelter ed at home from the disgrace of having de serted their duty to their families, to their country and to their God.
