A Uooi> Home.—This is wiiat ft great
many people now desire. A good home !—
How thrilling Uie words. Those who de
sire such a good investment art* requested to
read the advertisement entitled “Attention
H dugeefl.” The next question to the house,
which it will be seen is all that could 1x5 dc-
tired, is the locality; and here wc arc aide to
give the most satisfactory information. Cul-
loden, in Monroe Co. Ga., is a pleasant little
village, long noted lor the excellency of its
schools. The climate is unexceptionable.—
No fear ot change need be entertained by
those who purchase, for the Yankees wi'd
never get there, and the price, like that of all
such property in villages off the Railroads,
will he very moderate as compared with
those wo hear of in this city for similar
pieces of properly.
Pi.auimu-m.—The Magnolia Weekly of
Richmond, Vie, publishes an article entitled
•An Unprofitable Guest”, which pur-
pot ts to he original; We saw the very same
article divested of the commencement, three
years ago, In a Yankee literary paper. When
will Southern men learn to leave off such a
despieealde way of attaining money and no
toriety y
£3T Our cotemporary ot the “Mis-issip-
pian,” in a Into number has quite a lengthy
article.on “The Wedding I>ay.” The feel
ings of the parties concerned are well ex
pressed, ns no doubt they had a right to be,
considering that one of the editors lately run
the blockade to Vicksburg for the purpose of
being personally engaged in a wedding day.
Wc suppose he is the author of the article.
Root’s Question Rook pok Young Chil
dren.— We have received from the Pub
lishers, J. J. Toon «fc Co., Proprietors of the
Franklin Printing House of this city, a spe-
men (in proof sheet) of “Root’s Primary
ftilde Questions for Youug Children” 34
Edition, which wc are informed in n note
addressed to us by Mr. Toou, has been
.'thoroughly revised” aud “greatly im
proved.”
Root's quesliou book is u favorite with
t tilidreu iu ijahhath schools; one reasou we
suppose it because the questions r.re so easy
of answer, and this very desire to make the
questions easy of answer has perhaps prov
ed n onre to the author. Fifteen thousand
copies, we learn, of this work will bo is,tied
ishortly, but as this will not supply fc tenth
part, of the demand, it is important that those
Sunday schools that wish to be supplied
should send in their orders early.
While noticing and recommending this
work wo would remark that the education
of “young children ” such as Mr. Root pro
poses to instruct, is one of the most impor
tant. subjects that can possibly engage the at-
teutinn of Christian Pasters, or Teachers. The
gnat ])-. Watts did not deem it a subject
ta uea.U his mihty gjuiu* ; and he h.n pre
pared with great care 'some of the very best
works for this class of our population. It is
not to be expected that Mr. Root (tor ,he is
now an author and subject to criticism)
should tnive succeeded altogether in the good
work which he has designed; but he has tq
least worked out the road, and it is earnestly
to be hoped that others will follow in his
I* it itsteps.

H1ST0BT OFTHE SUBBEX3DKR OF CUHBEB-
LAHD GAP BY ONE WHO WAS INSIDE
Major G. B. McDowell, of the C2d N. C.
Regiment, which was surrendered at Cum
berland Gap by Gen. Frazer, publishes a let
ter which is the first reliable account of that
affair. It appears that cm Monday, the Gth
ult., about (t o’clock A. M., the Yankee Gen
eral Shackleford, appeared about two miles
from the Gap and demanded its surrender,
which was refused by Gen. Frazer, and on
Tuesday again made and again refused.—
The Major’s statement continues:
£On Tuesday evening Col. De Cosey’s com
mand made tlieii appearai.ee on the north
side of the mountain. A portion of his
command approach on the llarlin county
road, and a portion on the main Kentucky
road. A heavy skirmish soon began between
Captain Turpin’s company, ot my regiment
and the advance of the Abolitionists. Cap-
taiu Turpin, with his gallant boys, effectual -
ly checked’the advance of the enemy until
late in the evening, when the Yankees dis
appeared, Captain Turpin holding his
ground, which was something near one
mile in advance ot our line.
About.” o’clock, Tuesday evenintr. Col. De
Cosey demanded the unconditional surren
der of Gen. Frazier and command. General
Frazier replied under ll igof truce, asking ot
Do Coseylthe number ot forces to which he
was ordered to surrender. De Cosey replied
near 12 o’clock relusing to give the number
of lorce3 under his command, stating that it
was from motives entirely disconnected with
the attack ui>ou the gap that be did so. tten.
Frazier then refused to surrender, nnd it was
understood that the fight would open at 12
o’clock on Monday. I will state iu this con
nection, that on Tuesday evening a council
of the commanding officers of regiment was
called, which resulted iu the refusal of all to
he surrendered. I will state further that a
majority preferred the risk of catting their
way through the Yanke lines than to be sur
rendered on any terms.
A tight was therefore confidently expect
ed. Near 12 o’clock on Wednesday the 9th
when all was in anxious expectation lor the
fight to open, Gen. Fraizer received Lorn
Burnside^ under llag or truce, a demand for
the unconditional‘surrender of himselt and
command. Very suuu alter its reception,
one of Gen. Frazier’s aid de camps came in
great haste down the mountain and ordered
me to take down my battle iHg and uoist a
w'hite one instead thereof. Although many
of us were of opinion that wc would be sur
rendered 3oouer or later, yob can imagine
the astonisraent with which this struck the
brave boys that were so anxiously expect
ing an engagement.
Various statements have been made iu re
gard to the conduct of the troops composing
the command at Cumberland Gap. 1 assert
most positively that I have yet to sec troops
in finer spirits or more detetmined to hold
their ground than the troops in the Gap. I
have learned that an attempt is being made
to justify the surrender oi the gap upon the
ground that the troops in thegap would not
fight, and that some ot them shouted when
the flag was ordered down The last charge
was made against the 03d North Carolina
regiment. The first is false, aud the second
not only false, but is a base and cowardly
effort to protect those that may be guilty at
the expense of the inure nt, brave, patriotic
and true.
We were surrendered, then, to Gen, Burn
side ou Wednesdaj\ the Gth, at 4 o’clock, p.
m. Many made tkeir<tf?eape after the sgr-
reuder, and among them was your unworthy
correspondent. We had, when wc were
6urrendered,piovisions upon which we could
have subsisted 30 days. We had all the am
munition on hand|.hat we had when ihe gap
was first invested. My regiment had i;><3
rounds to the man, and I presume other reg
iments had the same. As to the spiking and
throwing over the cliff* the artillery men
tioned in your issue of the 7th, taken from
the Knoxville Register, I know nothing,
save one piece that two men of my command
were picketing,which they spiked ami threw
over the clift near it ou their own responsi
bility.
This I witnessed aud know to betiue.—
The number of forces investing the gap I am
not by any means prepared to stale. It was
represented to be near 10,000 on each side of
the gap. If the surrender was a m ilter of
necessity, it was from ciuses other than a
willingness on the part of the men to do
their duty.
PROSPECTS OF THE WAR.
The man who* does not take a cheerful
view of our aff airs, so far as the war is con
cerned, at the present moment, must have
something very much the matter with his
liver. We see no hope for him, now at
the White Sulphur Springs, regarding him
as so tar gone that it is hardly worth while
to consult a doctor. There are others, in
deed, who seeing will not perceive, and who
hearing will not hearken - To these we can
not apply the same advice that we should
give to the first mentioned class, viz: to got
their liver right They are of the class cf
Thomas, surnamed Didymus—they doubt of
malice aforethought—they are determined
not to believe, aud believe they will not.—
They resemble the infidel who refused to
put faith in Noah when he preached the
coming of ’he deluge, and who, coi^u* to
the ark and praying for admission, rararo his
chin high enough above the encroaching
element to blaspheme the flood, and declare
that he did not believe Iho rain was anything
more than a drizzle alter all.
The Yankees are imrd pushed for recruits
to fill their array. Oi that there can be no
doubt The draft of -150,080 produced but
the ninth part of that number. Tne coming
dratt of G00,000 will, in all probability, pro
duce not a larger proportion. The Irish
aud German element is nearly exhausted.—
As a proof of it, the officers ot the Libby
prison say that whereas the majority of
prisoners were formerly of those nationali
ties, now they do not number more Ilian a
fourth, or at the outside a third. The gen
uine Yankees begiu to come m quite freely.
T le Irish and Dutch are tired of being shot
at tor thirty or torty cents depreciated cur
rency a day. They enlisted in great num-
l*era at the beginning of the tvar, because
business was at a stand, and they could find
no other means of supporting existence.—
Now there is plenty ot work and they can
do better by staying at home. . The burthen
of the war has fallen at last ou the Yankees
themselves, and we have alreadv seen how
they relished it.
The N. Y. Herald, on the very day that
the battle of Cbicamauga commenced, gave
us the programme of the Yankee Generals.
Roseerans was to crush Bragg and march
to Atlanta. As soon as Meade heard ef his
success—which the Herald did not doubt—
Meade, taking advantage of the terror it in
spired,was to march upon Richmond. Well,
Rosecrans was beaten very badly, instead
of crushing Bragg 1 ;, and Meade, instead of
advancing upon Richmond, detached three
corps to reinforce him, and himself- fell
t ack, closely pursued by Lee. Now, if the
Yankees had been in possession ot such aa
overwhelming force as they ivould have the,
world believe, where was the necessity of
robbing Meade to supply Rosecrans, when
the former was committed to an operation
not less important than that of which Rose
crans was himselt the director ?
Gen. Lee was,at the latest accounts, press
ing hard upon Meade. The latter was mak
ing the best of his way to Alexandria, and
there he will stop, unless Lee shall be able
to intercept him and bring him to battle.—
These are the two main armies of the ene
my. One of them is besieged, and the other
retreating. The enemy have derived abso
lutely no advantage from their success last
summer. Their press inculcates the abso
lute necessity ot concentration, and with
them concentration implies the abandon
ment of the territory they have been hither
to holding. .
The acceptance of the Archduke Maxim
ilian, contrary to the vaticinations of the N.
Y. Heiald, is a harbinger of glad tidings to
the Confederacy. The programme laid
down in the pamplilcLgUMHtt^tcr, is
Maximilian was

to secure herself from injuql^WIFftbiOMd,
by forming a strict alliance with her ncar-
estjjneighbor, the Confederacy. She was
first to recognise the Confederacy, and
France was to follow. Spain qnd Austria
would not be long behind—England, slowly
.and reluctantly, was to follow, having been
preceded by Belgium, and the Confederacy
in that way was to take her stand among
the powers of the earth. We have never
doubted that Chevclier’s pamphlet was writ-
tea at the iustigatiou ot the Emperor, nor do
we doubt thafthe programme therein laid
down will be strictly followed.
To conclude, iu our view, the prospects cf
the Confederacy were never so brilliant as
they arc now, and there never was less occa
sion for croakiug and despondency.—It‘.eh.
Dispatch.
Lincoln’s waning Armies —The re
duced state of the cuemie’s military trace
has become s:> apparent that the must tim
id of our people are' taking encouragement
from it. Time was that the enemy f»> lar
out numbered us at all noints that we could
only approach his strength at auy by a eon
ceutration which would cause the abandon
ment Of some other position. Thus we bad
to abandon the valley to Pattcrsou, and to
Fremont when wo fought tbe first Manasas
and the battles around Richmond. Even
alter thus concentrating, we always had to
light superior forces.
The enemy are no longer thus lull hand
ed of soldiers. Look at the shifts to which
they arc now reduced to strengthen Kise-
eraus. They arc cither abandoning many
minor positions, or greatly reducing their
garrisons. They have been compelled to
strip Meade to that point which lias placed
him on the defensive, and put him upon a
retreat.
Such is the condition to which the inva
ding power finds Itself now reduced. It
deems itself happy if it can maintain an
even fight, in Virginia and Tennessee,
wild® the great armies meet.
If such be our enemy’s condition now, at
the close of the third Campaign, what will
it be at the beginning of the it ex Land 4th ?
Ilis present soldiers were culuMHHHhrec
years; and tlie three years
spring. He has long,
from volunteering, c
of great bounties. 1
and it is pronounced a fail
in short, is showing great si
lion. Lincoln has got his last artff^, and it
is not likely he can hold that beyond i s
term of enlistment. The negroes and con
script substitutes arc otherwise his sole and
slim reliance.
The Confederate States have been tlie
weaker but the more resolute power in this
contest. Wc have been the more resolute
because of the greater stake we have had in
issue. The Yankees have fought for advan
tage—wc have fought for life. They eau
stop when they choose—we cannot. We
have thus more than made up for inferior
numbers and numerous other disadvantages.
It was natural that the North fighting vol
untarily would break down sooner than we,
fighting from the compulsion of.self-defence
and ever animated even to the exertions of
despair, by the vengeful threats of our toe.
Let us strike on, and strike hard, and strike
with all our might; our deliverance draws
nigh’—Richmond Sentinel.
Destruction of Property near Chat

nati Times, writing from Chattanooga,’says:
For the purpose of a perfect range in our

duty to burn all the dwellings between the

than fifty buildings have been levelled to Tlie

and the premises most beautifully ornamen

everythin^ has been levelled and destroyed.

gone, made to give way to the rebellion and
curse of war. Over this now desert waste
