Wo liavo just received n telegraphic di3- jmtrh containing the gratifying intelligence that Gen. Bragg is whipping the enemy, having already captured twenty-live hundred prisoners, uml twenty pieces of artillery.— 'Hiis is a giWd commencement and promises well. God grant that lie jnay obtain a sig nal and conclusive victory over the insolent foe, and that wo may not have the mortifi ed ion of being obliged to record any clraw- bick to news so oxciting nnd encouraging. How much depends on this great battle, you are well aware. I will notsoyHiat tiie fate of ihe Confederacy now hangs in the bal ance, but I may Weil say Uiariia fortunes for weal or for woe, largely depend or. the re sult. of U10 conflict. (fur news from Northern Virginia is of a rather uncertain tenor.. Gen. Lee is oh this side of the Iiapidan, waiting for the advance of the enemy, who, it is now believed, con templates a.mpverneut as soon ns the waters subside sufficiently to allow a passage for his troops. Such, at least,dire the present indications. The armies have assumed a hostile attitude towards each other, and an engagement will ensue, unless one or other of them recedes. A Yankee rcconnoitcring party crossed the Iiapidan on Saturday, at Mitchell's Ford, and a spirited skirmish oc- curred, in which wc drove the enemy back across the river, and took some 30 or 40 pri- g mers. 1 am happy to iufonn you that our Gov ernment has succeeded in effecting a loan <da huihlred' million francs (about twenty million doftars)..'in. Franco, based upon cot ton now in this country, and which is to be removed by Uic pnrlie* contracting. The nog >liation speaks y?hlHb'r the l riendly feel ing entertained in France towards the Con federate Government. - Mr. E. A. Pollard's “Second Year of the \V:tr” will bo issued from the press about the middle of October, and if it equals the first volume in the tiUfllity and vigor of the nar rative, it will be sought i<*r and read with great avidity. The mechanics of Richmond have been roused into action by the abominable spirit of extortion which pervades and disgracss this community, as well as other communi ties, at this eventful and trying period of our country’s agonies. There w'as a large gath- ating of the “bone; sinew nnd muscle” at the City llallhast Saturday night, and that there was no deficiency of intellect, and of deter mination to moot tiro evil, and to crush it, is manifest from the character of the resolu tions adopted. The mechanics, however in dignant at the vile "practices; of the extor tioners, arc the friends oflaw and order,and seek their remedy through legal enactments, lliey accordingly, at this meeting, appoint ed a committee to memorialize the Legisla ture for the passage ot stringent laws to suppreas speculation in the prirno necessaries of life, to suppress traiiug ingoid aad silver, and to instruct the reptfftsentatives of Virgi nia in Congress to pis3 such laws as will make the Confederate currency equivalent to specie. They pledge themselves to defend the gov omnsant «f their choice to the last extremi ty, but implore the laassage of the laws in question as indispensable to the peace and well being of the community. They also tender their thanks to our brave troops for their services and gallantry, declaring that their feelings and sympathies arc avilh them, and that the great objsct they propose to tiiomselvcs by their moeting, is to benefit them and their families, by striking down, as bar as lies in their power, the heartless speculator and unprincipled extortioner. It is generally thought that the meeting will^ be influential, and that the Legislature is well inclined to give a favorable response to the application Of the mechanics, who forci bly utter the opinions of ail other classes, from the highest to the lowest, in this com munity. Mr. Qoghill, m the Senate, on Saturday -WSL___ reported hill£ 16 prevent the depre< iation of the currency issued by the authority of the Confederate Government, to restrict auction sales, declaring wbat contracts shn.!l be pay able in currency, which bills were advanced to a third reading. The Northern journaLs inform us that tiie writ of 'iiaJjens, corpus is suspended through out the'rcalm of Lincoln, a to n connected with flic military am: vice, or charged with any offense the ob3truclicn of tiie military po 1 Oovemmcnt. The province i i ih bunal?, in time of war, is thus confined to the narrowest limits, and a military dc~pa ttern ior the large masses of the pi; pic who ara cither In the army, or who, cm oi !hc uerny, are opposed to the military policy of the admin isi rat ion, is substantial!} inaugu rated. Another great achievement oi the Lincoln administration deserves notice as likely to secure an evil.immortfility to .that usurper, and to send down his name with bitter exe < ration to after times. I allude to his sup pression of the freedom cf the-Press—the great American franchise. fA (Censorship of iho press is established, before publication, and “even matters iu no manner connected with military operations have to receive the approval of the official supervisor.” By these two crowning acts of infamy, liberty of person and liberty of the press are actually abolished in a country once the fre est in the world, but now crushed to the oarili, humiliated and enslaved beyond ail possibility of redempt ion. Alas fof the proud motto, Esto perpetua ! CLIO. Educating ocn Ciiildhen.—So busily axe we engaged in watching the scenes be ing enacted around us, and so deeply arc wo absorbed in the great issue before us, that schools are neglected everywhere, aud chil dren allowed to grow up like weeds, many, we are sorry to saj-, apparently without pa rental attention or supervision of any kind Go where you will, boys are to be seen rov ing about in idleness, that are hardly able to read a newspaper or sign their own name. The education of girls is equally neglected, aud they are allowed to emerge into society, be flattered and courted, without having re ceived the benefit of a common school edu cation. This growing illiteracy among the rising generation should attract the attention of the press and people everywhere. The day will soon come when it will devolve upon those whose footsteps are soon to be heard upon the the threschold of man and woman- ’ hood, to take charge and control the affairs of the nation. The men now in our halls of Congress—in all our public places—will fall into the " scar and yel[Ow leaf,” finally sinking away into that far oil home from whence there is no returning, and those boys now rambling around w ill be called upon to 1 fill their places. Will they be competent ? Will they bo fit to supply the places of the intellects now guiding us through this or deal, which is so trying to the nerve aud sa gacity of man V aic questions that naturally suggest themselves as you see these lads dai ly rambling around in sloth and idleness. We fear they will not, unless wo improve the educational prospects of the country. We must give more time and attention to training the youthful mind—that mind, which, when ils clay tenement shall have crumbled to the dust, wll be but entcringon a career that is never to terminate. Seek teachers ol qualification—those who under stand the organization of the human mind, and the means by which its powers may be most rapidly developed, regardless 'of"achat they'will charge—teachers that will have the moral courage to assign very short lessons to pupils—that will insist these lessons be accurately learned, ami recited at a brisk pace 'without the least halting or hesitation —that will practice a profuse questioning and cross questioning, leading ihe sclvfiar just near enough the inference they wish them to draw to enable them to take the final steps themselves. Let them be applau d ed when they succeed ami encouraged when they fail; but never lor an instant let the pupil loic his intcro3t or alacrity. The les son being short, the strain on their faculties will be short also, but, recurring so often, will gradually build up the most valuable habits a man can possess, who wises to go into the world wide awake, with all his wits about him. We throw out these'hints upon the mode of schooling for the benefit of those who may wish to teach their own household gods; and we have no doubt that when schooldays are over, a pupil so train ed will not only have better Ueaiih and bet tor mental habits, fmta greater fund of avail able knowledge than Tt he was compelled to plod through long hours of spiritless stu dy at the expense of health aud cheerful- ness. We cannot too strongly impress ou the minds of fathers, mothers and guaidians the necessity of improving the educational condition of the country. Its indispensa- bieness and pressing need must be apparent to every one, as well as the social ami public state of our country, iu case wo fail to per form this sacred duty.—Daily Afimissippian. Funeral OnsaQUiEs of Gen. Preston Smith, and Cai*t. John M. Donklson.— This morning the remains of Gen. Preston Smith and of Captain John S. Donelson reached this place and were escorted to the grave, from tiie residence of Captain Mc Manus. The services of the Protestant Episcopal Church were said by the Rev. Dr. Charles T. QuiniarJ, ol Tennessee, at t’apt. Mc Manus' residence, and the coffins were placed upon chairs on the lawn in front of ihe building. A silver pi ate upon the eoilia containing the remains of Gen. Smith, bore this inscriptionGeneral Preston Smith, G. 8. A., killed at batile of Chickamanga, on the 10th of September at 0 P. M.” A Later from Eurofe.—The Arabia, from Liverpool, brings European dates of the 5th inst. The bark Jeff, Davis, belonging to what is known in England as the Dixie line, was launched lately at Liverpool for the Confed erate service.” She is a consort ol the Vir ginia and Richmond, lately completed for the Confederate Government. IL i-i probable that there will be a “scrub race' 1 for the crown of Mexico. As it i9 vei’} likely that the Archduke Maximilian wiil decline the proffered honor, the names of Prince Murat, of France, and M. Patter- sou Bonaparte, of the United States, are now mentioned in connection with the position. M. Patterson Bonaparte is said to be the fa vorite of the Emperor Napoleon. The deputation dispatched bo the Council of Notables of Mexico to Europe, in order, ol the 5 ticket, to formally tender the new crown to the ' Austrian Archduke, was daily looked tor in Paris when the Arabia sailed. This body consists of 8 persons, and to them Maximil ian must give a decisive reply. La Franco, ot Paris, says that it is of very great impor tance that lm final answer shold be known before next new year’s day. A very spirited analysis of the new French pamphlet, by M. Chevalier, on the Mexico- American question, appears in the London Times. M. Chevrdier maintains that France should hasten to recognize the Confederacy from Mexico, and thus by being the first, to do so, rain the friendly alliance aud trade of the now nation. In this he thinks the Emperor would have tho support of all the minor commercial nations of Europe at least, lie recommends a large emigration of French men to Mexico, the elevation and sustain ment of the Latin race upon the American continent, and the firm establishment of thq new empire. The Paris Moniteur, of the 4ili, officially announces that, by virtue of the rights of belligerents, accorded by France to tho Con federate Stales of tne South, the Confeder ate steamer Florida, now snugly ensconced in the harbor of Brest, has been authorized to.remain there long enough to complete her repairs.

A Sensible Yankee Spirit.—In the Spiritual Banner, of Boston, the experience of a Wisconsin soldier, killed in battle, is thus given: [Have you seen any battles?] Yes, all sorts, sizes and kinds. [Have you seen Lee’s army ?] Yes, I have been down there lately You hoard that he was to be trapped. Now’ don’t you believe it—don’t you believe it.— Now with all the Yankee shrewdness your generals possess, Lee will out-general them all. [Do you think ho will get over the riv er?] Yes, he will. Now, see here; I’ve been looking at the two armies. The folks at the South, they are fighting for liberty, tor their lives. Here, the Yankee is fighting for the almighty dollar, and, my God! he’d sell his soul, aud country too, for a dollar! It's so. It’s my opinion*you won’t beat the South in the way you think you will. I thought you would, when I was here. I wouldn't have fought a day if I hadn’t thought we should conquer them. But I don’t think you will now. To the Voters of the 8th Congressional District. Permanently disabled from rejoining mv regiment, in compliance with the expresseo wishes of many friends, as well as in accord with my own feelings, I announce myself a? a candidate to represent you in the Houst of Representatives of the next Confederate Congress. My physical condition will prevent me from visiting the several counties ot the District, and seeing my fellow-citizens, ei ther at public meetings or in private inter course. Should it be your pleasure to elect me, 1 can only say that I will discharge the duties of the office to the best of my ability. But, whether elected or not, whether in oi out of Congress, I wish it distinctly under stood that 1 am utterly opposed, and wifi never consent, under any cirumstancce, to any compromise or settlement with tin Abolition Government at Washington, short of a full and complete recognition of our In dependence.

Suppression of Auction Sales.—We observe that a proposition to suppress all sales at auction in Virginia has been intro duced in tho House of Delegates. It is per - haps, demonstrable that much of the infla tion of prices, from which the country is suffering, is due to the reckless competition of buyers, and to the trickery of parties owning goods sold at these public sales.— The auction interest, however, has grown into one of considerable magnitude in Vir ginia, it pays a heavy tax into the Confeder ate treasury, and the advocates of the prop osition will find that they will encounter no litilo opposition. The Richmond Whig be lieves. the day is not far distant when specu lators and hoarders will br glad to avail t hemselves of the services of an auctioneer to get rid, in the most summary manrter, of their accumulated stocks of goods. When the tumble commences m reality, auction puffing and badgering, such as are now wit nessed' at. .public sales, will not check the downward course of prices.—Sar. Hews. Latest fkom Louisiana.—We learn from gentleman direct from Monroe, La, that a Fedcial force of 5,000 marched on that place last week and demanded a surrender. Gen. Richard Taylor, who had been encamped in the vicinity, having retreated towards Shreveport, the placo was taken possession of, and is now occupied by the Federal for ces. Tiie commander represented that he was waiting for reinforcements, which were expected- in a few days, to march on Shreve port. Our informant gives a melancholy picture of the desolation created by tills ad vance of the Yankees. All the able bodied negroes in the parish, many of whom were at work repairing the railroad from Vicks burg to Shreveport, had been impressed. From the known energy of General Dick Taylor, bloody work may be expected in that quarter in a few days—at least before the Y ankecs reach their destination.—Daily Mismsippian, 22d.
