WESTERN PRODUCTS.
The West has three outlets for her pro
duce, viz: the Ohio, the Illinois river and
canal, and the Alississippi. The latter is the
•.•■heapesf, safest, and quickest, all the way
down stream, while the others are up stream,
and have to’ be 're-shippe<l once, twice,.or
three times.
If Kentucky should be united with the
Confederacy, Western produce w'ould be
exposed to the flying artillery of the South ;
forKentucky,has a border/d some sevenjhun-
dred miles on the Ohio river. Bat it will be
exposed some twelve hundred miles on the
Mississippi, provided the North and i?outh
should remain at variance, or treaties of
amity are not made between the West and
the West, Western inter es‘.s demand this,
or their cargoes will be in great danger in
descending t .e Father of Waters.
The Confederate States would purchase
much of Western corn, flour, hemp, tobacco,
&c., if they would trade cn friendly terms
but if the strife continues, many a cargo and
many a life will be lo3t by the agency of
sharpshooter's aud flying artillery', which
would seldom be captured by Federal sol
diers. Why can’t the whole West see their
true interest? They cannot anticipate safety
through the country of an enemy. Let them
break with the North, and negotiate with
the South for the sale of hundred:; of mil
lions of their products ; they will be eu
richcd, and the Confederate States bene
filed. S. D

TO THE VOTERS OF COBB, FULTON, ANl)
CLAYTON COUNTIES
Atlanta, Sept. 9, 1803
Mr. Kdito):
I sec my name suggested as a candidate
to represent the people of the 35lk Senate
rial District (composed of the counties of
Fulton, Cobb and Clayton), in the next Ccu
cral Assembly of the State. The announce
ment of my name was entirely the work of
friends—an expression of their partiality for
me in that connection.
I had thought, and probably have said
that I could not be induced to be a candi
date lor any civil office during the war; l at
finding myself unable for service in the ir
my, with but little hope ot being abb. to re
turn to the field under several monll p, I
yield my assent.
When I entered the service I determined
that nothing but Providential causes should
take me out of if. Such is my determina
tion to day.
Should I be elected, only such of my time
a3 is absolutely necessary for the discharge
of the duties devolved upon me shall be lost
to tl\c service; and in no event do I contem
plate retirement from my country’s defence
as long as I am able to strike ablow'in our
cause,
• If elected, my energies shall be devoted
to such measures as, in my judgment, will
be most conducive to the public good; and
believing, as I do, that our future, as a free
and happy people, depends upon the success
of our arms, I would be recreant to my prin
ciples, should I fail in every practical way
to aid and encourage my brothers jn arms.
Your obedient servant,
E. P. WATKINS.

Mu. Hamilton as Met amok a.—The play
of Mctamora, founded upon the history of
King Philip’s war with the Puritans, was I ia the oi, J of Columbus
From Our Morning Edition.
News from Richmond.
Latest from Charleston,
Virginia Legislature.
Richmond, Aug. 9.—In the Virginia Le
gislature, Collyr, of Petersburg, submitted
a resolution providing for the appointment
of Commissioners to proceed to each North
ern Slate to demand of them to decide by
the ballot box whether Virginia shall be
separated from them in peace, provided the
other States of the Confederacy will appoin-
the like Commissioners.
The resolution was forthwith considered
aud after a short debate, indefinitely post
poned, the vote being yeas 38, nays 1—Coll-
yer.
The largest sale of imported goods ever
offered in this city, was made to-day, at prit
ces higher than any heretofore obtained.
The news from Charleston to-day had an
inspiring effect. Confidence is felt here that
we shall have good tidings from Tennessee
before long.
Philip’s war with the Puritans, was
produced.at- the Athemeum last night to a
large audience. Mctamora was written by
an old actor named Stone, and was awarded
the prize ol $1000, offered by Mr. Edwin
Forrest, the Eminent Tragedian, for the best
acting tragedy, founded upon an American
subject. Upon the success of this play,
much of Mr. Forrest's present celebrity was
gained. It was the means of building the
colossal fortune which he at present pos
sesses. The play has never been published,
aud until this war managers aud actors have
respected his exclusive right to the per
formance of the same. Mr. Stone, the au
thor, like most moritorious writers, lived a
life ot misery and want and died in abject
poverty, while the rich tragedian was night
ly adding hundreds to his well-filled coffers
upon the labors of the poor man’s genius.
Upon Stone’s death. Forrest caused a stone
to be erected over his last resting place, with
the simple inscription:
TO THE AUTHOR
OF
METAMORA.
His last hours were spent in Philadel
phia, where most’of his long life had been
passed.
Upon the breaking out of the war, Mr.
Forrest having thought propci to contribute
largely from his means to the equipping
and sending into the field several regiments
fr.AH New York; having also assisted the
Lincoln despotism in their efforts to subju
gate and crush the liberties of a free people;
Mr. Hamilton has thought himself justified
in apprporiating to his own use this great pro
Auction, upon w r hich the tragedian has built
his reputation; and during the last year has
been playiDg it throughout the Confeder
acy.
The company.at .the Athenaeum, although
lacking in force to render a play of such
magnitude with the effect and power with
which vve have seen it rendered previous to
the war, did themselves much-credit. byjts
performance, as they have done on each
occasion since the opening. ■
Mr. Hamilton has evidently given his pro
fession due study, and has arrived at a posi
tion of which he may be truly proud. His.
fendition of this truly difficult role was, in
deed, impressive and grand- Not forget
ting for an instant the character of the In
dian King, lie adhered? closely to his con
ception of the injured chieftain—the bursts
of passion aud frenzy contrasting grandly
with the curt, dogged manner when in re
pose, till finally in the last ac-j, when for
saken by friends, surrounded by treachery,
he dies grandly and sublime—the last of
his race defying the whole race of English
Puritans, and nobly dying upon his father’s
throne. "Mr. Hamilton’s performance here—
the Stranger, Claude Melnotte, Ingomar,
Sir Harcourt Courtly add Mctamora have
proved him to be, without a doubj, the first
theatrical artist of our Confederacy. We
are extremely sorry his stay with us is so
short—to-night being his last appearacce.
We hope soon to see him amongst us aghin.
