II the Congress can devise some plan to have fvll ration* of provisions and full issues of 'good, comfortable clothing is sued to the enlisted men, it will be a much greeter and more acceptable benefit to them. If you increase the pay to f 15 per month, or oven $R0, there are very few necessaries, even, that at present market prices can be bought with tho addi.ional $4 or $9 pei month. Instead of increasing their pay, give them full rations and good clothing, and add to What they now get, a ration of tobac co, in 7>ad weather a ration of whiskey, and our soldiers will be as well satisfied as any set of duen that ever lived. They are by no means discontented, even H3 It is, but as an act of justice to i he soldier, the Government ought at least to give full rations of provis ions and full issues of clothing, if it he pos sible.

W« have nothing to write that would prove very interesting to tlic people of Mid- dle mul Upper Georgia. They are now ab» sorbed in the movements of the armies of Geus, ltragg and Jtosecrans, and doubtless, lor the time, liave almost lost sight of and earn for events that occur on flic coast. We too look with longing oyes and yearning licartn towards Cherokee and East Tennes see. That events are at hand pregnant with ihe fate, of our nation we feel most painfully.. But ivo can only trust- hi .the wisdom and iikill .of pur rulers and leaders and in thq mercy, strength anil justice of God, and with prayerful hearts leave the result iu hts hands. Movements are constantly faking place here among troops, that it would bo\ improper to mention. Our engineers are work ing like heavers to make Savannah im pregnable. Our troops are well fed and comfortably clothed. They are contented and confident of final triumph. Their groat- c U. cause of dissatisfaction is the truth that so many able bodied young men, who ought P> bo in the Held aro remaining at home iu llih hour of the country's most terrible tri al. • . ' it is the almost universal" desire that Con gress,, ns soon, as it meets, shall extend the provisions of- the conscript law so as to in clude all men between the ages of 18 and 50, and thus bring into, the army the 175,000 drilled and disciplined men, who have employed substitutes who arc between the ages of 15 and 50 years; and they wish the clause allowing substitution to be repealed. Another cause of dissatisfaction is the truth that there are some at home who have never been,in 1 he army, and have never suffered to any considerable extent, who are everlast ingly croaking, and are discouraging as far us they can c\ cry eirort to gain our inde pendence. There is no despondency in this part of the army. Wc are for fighting to the hitter end—as long as we have an acre of ground to stand on and a regiment of men to use the bayonet. We love our coun try as we do bur mothers who gave U3 birth, uouilshcd us in infancy—taught ue in child hood and youth to love that Great Seing from whom come all our benefits—learned our faltering tongues to pray and praise.— We love the beautiful m mntains and fruit ful valleys of our grand old State— her mur muring streams—her halls of science aud" pleasure, and her temples dedicated to reli- ; her venerable old men and honored women. W< are proud ot her, aucl would see her peaceful, prosperous, rich and pow erful ; but rather than see her a conquered province of the Yankee Government—rath er than sec our fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, wives and children, the conquered slaves of the most rascally aud vicious race that ever cursed the earth with its existence, wt> would ’ say, let all we love fall into the cold embrace ot death; let the grass grow ia the streets of her towns aud cities; let mouldy ruins mark the places of once happy homes; let our orchards and fields he de vastated let the death-wail of Georgia’s inhabitants ascend to Heaven from every mountain top and valley; let hcr slrcamsbe rod with the blood of her children; let the owls hoot through her halls of science and pleasure; let the bat alone. dwell in her temples of religion ; let the curse of God blot her from existence; let her be as if she TRAGEDY IN BEDFORD. The following account of the recent trag edy in Bedford we clip from the Lynchburg' “Republican:” On Thursday, September U J, l>elwcen the hours of 9 and 10 A. M.» a provost guard of five proceeded to Uio house ot Justin Wills, lately deceased, (who resided one mile west "of Emaus Meeting House,) in search of his five sons, who had succeeded in escaping the vigilance of the guard since the con script act went into operation. Finding the door of tho house fastened, and the mother- of these boys persistently refusing to open it, they entered by force, and finding no one In tho room, D. 13. F. Wilson, of Barbour county, Va, gun in hand, proceeded up stairs, and while on the secomLor third step was instantly killed by a ball entering the Jolt eye and passing out at the back of the head. Two or three shots were fired at this guard, but ouo only took effect. Two shots wqr^ afterwards fired from the window up staira at a guard, Who was standing at the ond of the house, but without any other ef fect thauJo make him run and leave his gun. At this unwelcome reception the guaros evidently took fright, as they imme diately skedaddled to a place of conceal ment. It ia, however, oxily the part of jus tice to say that the guard at this juncture were in a bad condition, either lor defensive or offensive warfare. Wiih two of their guns within the cne- pxy’s liues, one disabled and a fourth used to guard some conscripts, whom they had with them, they were iu bad plight to cap ture such pugnacious conscripts *as they had to beliovc were up stairs in the dom- of the late Justin Wills. Up to this period of the. tragedy there was no clue ns to who tho murderer or murderers were.— The guards saw no man, heard no man.— They only knew that one of their number had falleu by an unknown hand. On the retnrn of the guard, with citizens, to the house, they found only the family, consisting ot Mrs. Wills, a grown daughter, a sou nearly grown, and three younger chil dren. Tho dead man was found as shot, minus his gun and cartridge box. The citi zens knew not that the Wills boys were at horn*, and the whole affair would still have been shrouded id mystery, had it uot been for the testimony elicited from Mrs. Wills.— She testified that on the night previous to tho murder four of her sons came homo,each armed, two with rifles, ore with a double and tho other with a siiigle barreled guD; that they said they did not intend to bo taken by guards; that they were in tlie house when the guards came; that they left soon alter tho murder, carrying with them on.e of the guard’s guns. From all the circumstances connected with this unhappy affair, it is evident that mtyder was ^premeditated, and that the older mem bers of tho family were fully cognizant of such premeditation, and yet notone syllable of warning was mutt ex ex I by tliat miserable woman whose silence consigned to a prema ture death a brave man, and made murder ers of her cowardly sons. This deed will stain the fair name of Bed ford until every reasonable effort is made to r arrest and bring to justice the perpetrators of this f oul murder. had never been.

Our blood runs cold to think of the deop hcart-anguisli which their conduct has carried to the hearts and homes of their loved ones. Tlieir names are disgraced for ever, and around their memories will forever ; linger a dark stain that can never be blotted oui Let their late also be a warning to wives, mothers, sisters, lathers, and others, against writing letters to their loved ones. calculated to make them unhappy und dis satisfied in the array and cause them to de sert. They are in the army, and to abandon their colors is a crime that involves heavy and degrading punishment, and they are al most sure to be arrested, sooner or later. Let relatives at home remember those things,and beware how they act in a manner calculated to indpee soldiers to desert.” The description of the execution which we find in one ot our exchanges, is horrible.— “Oh my poor mother! my poor mother!” was the heart-rending cry of one of the offen ders, as he knelt to receive the death shot.— His poor mother! perhaps she was like the misguided wife, Whose original letter we latmy saw, telling her husband to come home at once, as they were about to have a peace meeting in the neighborhood to end the war. And hedidcomehome—a deserter—and the ably be caught, or killed, if he should resist, and then what will be the feelings of this poor wife! , . ' , , - We learn that recently in one of the Wes tern counties a deserter who was apprehend ed in the very presence of his wife, by troops from camp Vance, resisted, and in the saffle was badly shot in the shoulder. Seventeen others took the hint and forthwith came in and surrendered themselves to Capt. McRae, Commandant at that camp, near Morganton. Let others follow their example, for the out rages of deserters have become intolerable. —Fayetteville (W. O.) Observer. The Confederate loan was selling at 22a24 per cent, -discount, Silence Enjoined.—The Columbia (S. C.) Guardian has the foil lowing hints to newspapers: Some weeks ago our newspapers informed the Y’aukecs that an enormous amount of rolli* stock had been carried up to Grena da. But not content with this, some cor respondents told their readers and the Yan kees that Gen. Johnston was rebuilding the bridge over Pearl river in order to run ofi tills stock and save if. Iu oilier words Grant was told to hurry up his raiding parties. He was not slow to.take the hint thus given him, and a'terrible'calamity has been the re sult. Privateering might ’have been carried on for years from the waters of North Caroli na, had not oar newspapers told the Yan kees where our'erasiers made their rendez vous. The capture of Hattcras, Roanoke Island, and Newberu, was the resul t of Ibis babbliug. A Chattanooga paper,'a few days since, informed Rosecrans where Gen. Forrest was, and duly published the Dutchman’s proclamation inviting our soldiers to de sert. Tlio’Charleston papers tell Gillmore, Ijo’in day to day the "effect of his fire, and warn, him him of the. preparations Beauregard is. making. , The \'ankec3 are duly apprised of every movement of our troops. They arc told ail about our plans, hopes, and fears ; they are taught where our weak and strong points.— Every combination of our military leaders against the vandals ^proclaimed trom the housetop. Can nothing be done to arfest this terrible evil ? Would not a law depriving every in discreet and babbling writer of his exemp tion papers and placing him in the ranks be worth to our cause au army of fifty thou sand men * This, though, would be wicked. It would be muzzling ihe press. FOREIGN ITEMS. The pearl fishery of Ceylon has this sea son opened nine millions of oysters, and Tound therein half a million dollars worth i of pearls. After burning a Polish village, the Russi ans sent to Siberia all its inhabitants—the men, women and children ; and confiscated their estates for beating a Russian spy caught near, the place. The Polish, revolution was progressing at j last accounts. A great victory had been gained at Kanore. TO THE PEOPLE OF GEORGIA.
