'Jeonfa. SUNDAY MORNING. SEPT. 13. ALL .WILL B3 WELL. Scant ol'our people, whoso nerves tire not hi t he strongest kind, appear to take a spe- • ial delight in spreading a lot of ill rumors about town, all of which are of course de trimental to onr Cause. The last of these iiiports that we heard yesteWay evening, was that Bragg’s army was rapidly falling I'ftek upon Ailanta, the cncm}’ following him closety. This, wii h all tho others of tht same class, wo assure onr readers arc un worthy of any belief. ‘Far from Bragg’s falling hack,-wo have grounds for asserting ihv.t fihtmld Resecrans delay attacking him, he will in a short lime take the offens ive,' and cither oompal Iioserrans to giv< ‘dni ti.rtile or make a precipitous ret,real from Tennessee, when he will run the risk • f having his a my cu1 to pieces I»j' our forces in the mountains. Wo advise tlio people to place no credit in tho rumors about -town, but to trust in the julice of our cause and the. valor ot our soldiers for the speedy expulsion of ttyi .invader from our soil. Bragg commands an a»*my of tried veterans, who are deter mined to do ail that men can to defeat the enemy now invading our State. They are in good spirits and confident of victory, and wo not only hope, but believe,.that before the winter will have sot in,Rosecrans’arm} will have been routed by our forces, Ten nessee reclaimed, and Kentucky open to 0 ur victorious at my. Let no one be downcast or fearful of the result. Movcmonts are progressing now 1 hat almost insures success. . And liowevei cloudy our skies may be at present, we be lieve t hat shortly all will be well. lincjliFs dkaft. The passigo of tho $3,000,000 ordinance ..ver Mayor Opdyke’s veto by the New York Council settles all apprehension on.the sub , p et, whether Lincoln will gain any recruits in that city byJils draft or not. . The reason of the draft being nndc so easily is now ap parent,, and alt hough the Yankee govern ment, .will make a .plenty of money by the transaction, yet money alone will not suffice to narky on this war. What they want is men, and unloss tiiey can procure them, this war must close, in a short time with their U-feat. The acknowledgment of the North ern press that nearly all the men drafted have paid the commutation fee, and those unable to pay, have in large numbers desert- < !, I of groat significance, asit plainly shows bat the people of the'North are heariil\ ink of this scone of bloodshed, and desire its close. • ; ‘ \ lu view of ail these facts before, us, wc ice no reason for any one to despair of out final success. The term of service for the majority o; Lincoln’s arm3 f Will soon expirt, and we can safely say from theii* past con duct, that at least two-third9 of them will not re-enlist, and tho remainder of tho ene my a torccs will be but a poor match for our gallant soldiers. Let us, then, bear a cheerful spirit. A bright day is dawning for us. Already do wc sec the light struggling to break through the dark clouds that conceal its rays. With fbe failure to raise any fresh tioops by hia drab, and fas wc trust) a defeat to his army ia this State, the long bought-lor Independ ence will have arrived, and peace, withal i-s blessings, will once more visit our beloved country. From iheLjnU’in Urn:*, Aag\ 6. bi"l: i J.IKKN AND SorTDEKX RkSOFHCES.— Ike war has now lasted sufficiently long, and has been attended with a loss o.f life sufficiently great to tax severely the soldier producing p >wcrs (if we may he permitted c >eexpression!of tho Northern and South- ern populations. rue recent success of tho • Federal gov ernment have led to the belief that the South u is at length bpgun ta exhibit signs of ex- h uistion, and ii is important to determine whether this be really the case. It may be v 'needed that ‘he population of the South*' his been heavily taxed in order to supply u i to the present time the requisite quota of t .oopa; but it la very questionable whether tuc soldier producing power ia not now much greater in the South than in the N ortli. That the Southern population, however, wifi continue to supply such troops as may' be demanded by tho G avernment, there can be no reason to doubt; whereas that of the North has in the most unmistakable manner manifested its refusal to yield compliance to a measure wliica only extreme urcesaitv could justify. It is reported that, the Fed eral government propose, notwithstan ting the recent popular demonstration, to enforce the conscription. If jhis is report welltound eJ, then no doubt can exist that the fighting population oi the North is exhaus ed. Mr Lincoln does not possess the means of coin ’polling obedience to lm dec rees, and at the moment when success appears most certain tie will probably be obliged to succumu.— Regard being had, there!'we, to tne pro ducing powers ot the respective population- of the North and riontb, lor the purposes oi tho present war, we believe that the b dance inclines in favor of tho south.' It is in the populous cities of the Federal btates thai ■uens of exhaustion are unmistakably appa- # rent. Volunteering has long since ceased in the Northern Btates, and heavy bounties which -t year ago proved so efficacious in recruit iug tho Federal armies nave ceased to prove attractive. The Government at. Washington ire now drivon to the alternative of enforc ing a conscription, or else seefbg their ar mies totally melt aw;t3\ In tho S mth the fleet of recent, events lias been to neeessl Late an almost universal applipertion of the principle of compulsory recruiting. The Southern President has has called upon all citizens in the Southern Southern States be- ween the ages ot eighteen and forty-five, to place themselves In readiness to join the ar mies of the States whenever called lipon.— This in itself is a proof ot the serious drain o which the population has been subjected by the necessities of the present war; but if he call is cheerfully responded to, the South can with case furnish armies even more nu inerous than those with which she has hith erto struggled to seeuro her independence. TnrE Traitors and tixe .Army.—Decided ly, traitors do not meet with much encour agement from tho soldiers. Soldiers, as a general rule, snub submissionists. A nota ble example has just occurrod in Georgia. It seems that a certain A. G. Murray, who ivea at homeatease, in Griffin, is “tired ot die war,” and is looking about for some coward to send to Congress upon that plat form. He does Col. James M. Smith the honor of applying to him. Col. Smith is with his regiment near Culpeper Court douse, when ho roceives this very dubious compliment. He does not know what to make of' it-*-lie asks himself what he has ever done that lie should be exposed to such a tribnto of praise and such a mark of con fidence from Murray ? Here, is a part, of the disgusting letter which the Colonel received at his tent in the camp of the gallant 12ih Georgia: “Are you in favor of a proposition for peace being made by the South, or are you ior figting on until the proposition comes from tho North V A conservative meeting will be held in Clayton county on Sat urday next, at which something may be said about a congressional candidate. We-are tired ot. the war, and want it stopped on sorao terms, and it your answers suit us, you may'calcu- lato upon our support if you run.” After severe self examination, Col. Smith thought fhat really he had never deserved such treatment ns this,.nor lard himsef! open to it, and - accordingly ho wroto a most explicit letter, whereof these para graphs contain the cream. Let the Clayton “conservative meeting” make much ot it;. “ You desire tp know whether I am m fa vor of a proposit iou for ‘ peace being made oy the South? or ant 1 in favor of fighting on until the proposition comes from the North? The first of these questions has already been iully answered. I answer tne last by saying that I am in favor of fighting on, and on, lorevcr, unless the North with draws its armies from our c >untry, and leaves us in quiet possession of all thevights of- a free people. “While we have one acre of ground to stand upon, or ono platoon of men, or tvo- meu either, to firo a gun, I would fight in auch a quarrel. And let me say that this is the spirit which animates the soldiers oi the Confederate armies. We know more of the horrors of war than you do. We have suffered more than yoa have. We havo stronger reasons than you have to be tired of the war. We expect, in the future, as we havo in the past, to suffer trom hunger and thirst, from heat and cold,- trom fatigue and nakedness, and think it altogether ukeij tnat w r e shall lull in the carnage of battle, at iast; but we know' what wo light for, and we tire willing, it need be, to purchase our country’s liberties with our own biood. «Ii uie timid or treacherous are tired ot the wtir, or would suuini'., let them go to lands, where submission to tyranny is no disuonor. Tuere. can be no peace nere so long as one armed Abolitionist is upon Sotuneru soil, finis is no. empty boasting. Tne men of our armies are in earnest. They intend that their country shall be lrce, and they do not intend tuat tne counsels ot wily politicians, nor the timidity of faint-hearted .patriots at home, shall divert mom irorn that purpose. “I trust you understand me. if yourself, and those you seem, to represent, *ire in ia- vor of submission 10 Lincoln, then permit me to say I would not be your fit represen tative in Congress. If you desire a policy inaugurated w T hicn would result in the aba e- ment of one jot or tittle of our utmost efforts to seeuro our independence, then I ant not your man.” To all this thel2:h Georgia will say Amen! As for the sneaking creatures who lints plot at home, whiio their best men are in tae ar- tny, to give up the whole cause we are fight ing for, they had better hide themselves or go North. We predict that Southern soil will grow too hot for them. A Georgia pa per—the. Augusta Constitutionalist—com ments on the ubuve.conespoudence in this dangerous temper: “The good people of Griftia have recently shown their contempt for such creatures by the expatriation oi. Dave Johnson. We doubt not they will send Murray to keep him company. He deserves a “short shrift and a long cordbut we are willing to leave the mode of his exit to his neigh bors. “Col. Smith’s letter breathes the spirit of a patriot and tiue soidier. We doubt not it represent the unanimous sentiment of the array.”—Rich. Enquirer. - here. He was married just before taking command of our corps, in May last, and I do not know that I have ever mentioned it, particularly considering the age of the par ties and Gen. Ewell’s eccentric manners It is said that when a young man he addressed this lady and was rejected. Years after wards, when she had become a widow, he renewed his suit, witn like ill succeess. In his long convalescence, after losing a leg at the second battle of Manassas, he was more successful in his addresses, and he was mar ried just about the time he became Lieuten ant-Gener&l. Mrs. Ewell has two children, both grown. Her son has been with the General since the beginning of the war, was a Lieutenant on Ewell’s staff when he was our Brigadier, and now holds the rank ot •Major, as one ot his step-tather’a Adjutants. Mis. E*ell’s daughter, with a niece of the General’s are both here, and seem to be the objects of considerable attention from the ettic. rs around them. Mrs. Ewell is a mild, amiable looking lady, her daughter. Miss Brown, is quite pretty. As for tne Genera', uis lace is as odd and peculiar as his man-, ners and dress. Tub Queen on Crtnolinf. —Her Majesty iias addressed the following remonstrance to the ladies'of England: Windsor Castle, Aug. 1, 1803. J .adies: The Queen has commanded me to express the pain with which her Majesty reads the account of daily accidents arising from the wearing of the indelicate, expen sive, dangerous and hideous article called crinoline. Her Majesty does not refrain making known to you her extreme displea sure that educated women should by exam ple encourage the wearing of a dress which can to pleasing only to demoralized taste. For the miserable idiots who abjectly copy the habits of those conventionally termed their betters, it impossible to entertain any thing but pfiy. But to the ladies of England this appeal to abandon the present degra ding, dangerous and disgusting fashion, is made in the belief that they will show them selves the |ational and decants persons they are supposed -to be. I have the honor to be, ladles, your mc3t obedient and humble servant. C.B, PHIPPS. We cordially recommend this to the ia dies of the South. Gen. Ewell and his Family.—A soldier correspondent of the Livingston Messenger, writing' from Orange C. H., says: Our Lieutenant General’s wife and family t^avo been with him ever since we arrived TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA. Headquarters, Atlanta, ( September 7,1863. j GENERAL ORDERS NO. 1. Having’been assigned by the Secretary of War to duty.in the Conscript Bureau, with authority to arrest deserters, suppress ail 1 in surrectionary movements, and preserve or der and tranquility throughout the State, J hereby enter upon the discharge of these duties. II, All soldiers in the State who ore ab sent from their respective commands with out authority, under any pretence whatever are called upon to -report themselves with out c’olay, either at my Headquarters in Atlanta, to myself in person, or to tuch offi cers as are acting under authority, from me in other parts of the State, when they will be f-urnish< d wath rations and transporta tion to their commands. III, His Excellency, the Governor, hav ing tendered me the aid of the civil and mil itary authorities of the State, they are ear nestly solicited te co-operate with mo in the discharge‘of my duties. It is not intended to interfere or 'conflict in any way with other authorities, and I hope that all will work harmoniously to gether for the good of our common cause. IV, The privilege of volunteering is ex tended o all who have-not already enlisted; but all persons' liable to conscription who do not volunteer at once, are hereby requ-r- ed to report forthwith to the nearest enroll ing officer, to myself in person, or to any officer in the State acting under authority from me, when they will be properly assign ed. If any should fail to eomply with the above requirements, they will be consider ed deserters and dealt with accordingly. ’ Those who respond promptly, will meet with all tho favor that I may be able to ex tend to them, and it is hoped that none will put upon me the unpleasant task of using forcible measures to bring them to duty; but if any should re use to comply with the above requirements, they will be hunted down, captured, and treated as deserte rs— An efficient military force has been placed at my disposal to clear the State of all strag glers, skulkers and deserters, and to appre hend them wherever they may go, which I shall proceed to do at once.

Fellow-Soldiers*. Men of Georgia! a ruth less loe is on your borders—almost at your very doors, and if not repelled, will dese crate the soil ot our beloved State with his polluted and unhallowed tread. Will yo 11 suffer your homes to be desolated, your wives, sisters and mothers insulted and out raged by the vandal hordes of the North, who are destitute of humanity and strangers to all the laws and practices of civilized war fare ? Our hope, our safety, our freedom, and all that men hold most dear, depend upon the stalwart arms and unflinching courage of our people. Rally, I beseech you to your country’s call! Go and battle side by side with ycur comrades in the field !— Let none point the finger of scorn at you or your descendants after you, but rather live cherished in the memory of your country -and the pride of your children's children; or be numbered with the once gallant and ever honored dead, whose names and memories will adorn the pages of future history.
