We notice in one case that tha proparty of a
church is to be sold for texts. In the South we
don't tax church property. It haa remained
for the infidel North to do such a vandal deed ;
but when ruin and desolation are to wide
spread as to render church congregations una
ble to pay tha tax thus imposed on them, end
tbe property ie thereupon told to satisfy the
tax, the ease is calamitous.
Nobody hurt!
This war which the enraged North is forcing
on us unjustly, and threatening to prosecute
with savage ferocity, will be felt there. For
tunes that haretofora hare reared themselves
mountain high, will come tumbling down about
their ears with a thundering crash. Beggary
and starration will stare in the faces of mil
lionaires, whose wealth has been derived from
tha profits of Southern trade. We rejoice that
none of oar wealth rests on such a sandy foun
dation. We make our food and oar wealth
from tha yield and surplus profits of our own
soil, which Qod haa given us, and which no
power on earth can take away. This war will
ruin tbe North. We will fatten, thrive and
grow rich while we prosecute it—even if it last
twenty years. Why ? We make our food at
horns, and we raise j>roducte on our own soil
which the world must and will have; sod the
price of which will be enhanced as long as the
war lasts. Some of our people are despondent,
apprehending much suffering in the country
on account of the war. Never was a mistake
greater. With the exception of tha noble blood
that may be shed, and tbe sadness of bereaved
hearts, It will be a blessing to our country,
rather than evil.
We repeat, we will prosper under it, while
ruin must come to the North.

Tennessee Conventional
Long time ago, when there wee a Union and
a Southern Rights party in Tennessee, both
these parties called 8tate Conventions to notn
inate candidates "for Governor. But ere tbe
Conventions met, matters and things were an
aspect quite different from the calculations of
roostgftho politicians. We have already given
an account of the meeting of tho Union parly
Convention, which converted itself iutos South
ern Rights assembly, and declined to make a
formal nomination for Governor.
The original Sontbern Rights Convention as
sembled last Saturday. It refused even to re
commend a man for Governor, but resolved to
refer the whole matter back to the people; in
dorsed the action of the Legislature and the
eonduct of Gov. Harris, and strongly urged
upon Tennessee unanimity, in oouncil and ac
tion at this crisis.
Verily patriotism is swallowing up and wi
ping out all party distinctions. This is as it
should be.
The PUyaJc Working.
Tha New York Herald don't kuow what to
•ay about Governor Brown’s Proclamation. It
is "out of soap” evidently. Here are all it* re
marks on the document:
We give in full, in another column, the proc
lamation of honest Jo Brown, Gov’nor of Geor-
« ia, in which he forbids the people of tbat
late the paying of their just debts to Northern
errditors. It Is a curious document, and will
cause the people of Europe to wonder what
next secession will lead to. Tbe proclamation
will, no doubt, be copied pretty extensively,
and will be translated into many different lan
guages.
The Herald, under its financial head, also
remarks:
WaoxRSDAr, May 8—6 P. M.
The feeling in monetary circles was very
uneasy to day, and more failures are talked or.
It seems to be supposed that all the jobbers in
tbe Southern trade will go. Georgia surpasses
Virginia and Tennessea in the lolly method of
her swindling. Letters received here from
Georgia banks, state tbat they have made ool-
lcciioos for New York houses, and placed the
proceeds to tbe credit of the 8tate of Georgia.
Gov. Brown set the example of robbery some
months ago. Mr. Charles Morgan arrived to
day from New Orleans, where his entire steam
fleet, plying between New Orleans, Texas and
Mexico, haa been seized. A general confisca
tion of Northern property in the Southern
States is expected.

The Montgomery " Post " says: " We are au
thorised, by a hotel keeper in this city, to warn
the public against a man styling himself Dr.
G. W. Smith. He pretends to be a patent right
rheumatic physician ; is about 35 years old, 6
feet 8 or 9 inches in height, rather heavy set,
and a little stoop-shonldered, fair skin, short
sandy-colored whiskers, always perfumed with
musk, very talkative aud forward; represents
himself ns being from Philadelphia, New York,
Mississippi, Georgia, aud various other places.
He absconded from this city without paying his
board bill, and there is other ground of suspi
cion against him. He is believed to be a spy
as well as a swindler and imposter, and tbe
public would do well to look out for him. He
is supposed to have goae East from this city."
Those Kentucky Regiment*.
Our readers have seen it announced that two
Regiments of Volunteers had been raised in
Kentucky and tendered to Lincoln, and that
Maj. Anderson bad been assigned the com
mand of them. We find the following ae
count of these two Regiments in the Nashville
Patriot of tbe 14th inst., which the editor says
he is permitted to copy from a private letter
from a gentleman in Cincinnati to a friend in
Nnshville:
I suppose you have sceu some account of
the two Kentucky Regiments being reported
as ready to be mustered into servico for tbe
U. 8., under Cols. Guthrie and Terrill. Now,
tbat you and our good friends in Tennessee,
may understand this matter and not he de
ceived, I will try and give you a true account
of tbe whole. And first, as to Col. Guthrie,
be not deceived. He is none of " our Guth
ries." He is a citizen of Ohio; he settled in
Newport sometime last fall or winter; became
a rabid secessionist, "bloviated" about there
sometime, got himself appointed Colonel of
the Kentucky Militia; got scared ; run back
to Ohio; went to Washington; got some sort
of commission from Abe Lincoln ; enlists a set
of wharf rats, scoundrels, jail birds and loaf
ers in Cinoinnati, with a few German Turners
and vagabonds in Newport, and lo ! this turns
np Kentucky Regiment No 1. This is no fan
cy sketch. 1 will venture to assert tbat, in
the whole two Regiments, there art not fifty
true Kentuckians. I mean Kentuckians born
of Kentucky parents, and who, from infancy,
have been laugbl to speak the English lan
guage. As to Col. Terrill, he was for a number
ot years the editor of a vile abolition sheet at
LaPayette, Indiana. Some ill wind blew him
to Ciocionatl, (hence, 1 believe, lo Newport as
a resident for a few months. Sometime last
winter be returned to Cincinnati, where he
became the "roper" for a faro bank, and ia a
sort of dead-head pensioner to a coffee-house
in Cincinnati. His business is to lounge about
the Spencer House and catch "guile” aud se
duce them to the{aforesaid coffee house, where
tbe faro.bank is kept, and stranger gentlemen
are relieved of their cash.
llis Regiment is of the same character of
tbat of Guihrie'e. If the honor of proud, chiv
alrous old Keotucky ia lo be entrusted to the
keeping of such men, tbsn I fear that 1 and
others will have to do tbat which we never ex
pected lo do—blush for cur good old Common
wealth and proclaim in anguish of heart :—
How are tbe mighty fallen !" The facts here
set forth are true, and the statements here
made are not the result of prejudice. I have
them from those who know, and who intend,
through the medium of the "press," Ihst the
public shall know.
Ae to Kentuoky, my opinion ia, in fact, I
have no doubt of it, that if forced to take po
sition, she will go with the South. There is,
aa you know, a strong, fraternal feeling for
Tennessee. Kentuckians love Tennesseans ;
in faot, they are more attached lo Tennessee
than they are even to Virginia. Kentncky
will never consent to see an armed foe march
through her territory to make war on Tennes
see and (he South. They may permit them
to eater (he 8tato and go some distance into
the interior; but they would never resoh the
line, nor would they ever return.
You may rely upon it, in no event* in no
contiageney will Kentuekiane ever fight
against Tennesseans.

Deceased.
We regret to announce the death of the Rev.
Isaiah Parker, during the past week, who, for
many years, was a citizen of DeKalb county.
He was an old fashioned, frontier Primitive
Baptist Preacher, and an honest man- His wife
also died last week, a few days after the de
cease of her husband.
We learn also, that Mrs. Arminty Awtrey,
aged 78 years, and Mrs. Crockett, the wife of
Col. James Crockett—all of DeKalb county—
died duriog the last week.
Artificial Leather.
The last number of the Shoe & Leather ttc
porter, iu speaking of Ihe attempts to manu
fact are Leather, says:
Among these enterprises may be mentioned
e esse of Dr. Berulsnd, of Lsrris, in Ger
many, who, after a hzrJ struggle has wrested
great secret from Nature, by the employ
ment of which be at onoe converts certain re
fuse animal substances into liquid leather, to
tbe delight of bis friends aud bis own delects
tion. To reduce his discovery to a profitable
form bo has even established a factory near
Vienna. Think of modeling seamiest boots
and shoes at a trifling expense of time, labor
and material, into the moat elegant and close
fitting forms!
In our own country various attempts have
been made to provide substitutes for leather.
Not to speak of leather cloth, compositions
have been manufactured from scraps of vari
ous substances, even including scraps of paper.
The most feasible project of ibis kind we have
notioed, is tbe preparation from soraps of
leather and pieces of rope. A paragraph has
been going tbe rounds of tbe press that a firm
Massachusetts manufaoiuie fifteen hundred
pounds of this artificial leather daily, and that
the demand is greater than the supply ; the
process of making it is similar to that of man
ufacturing paper. Although such an article
can be considered little more than a superior
kind of pasteboard, yet we can conceive of
any purposes to whiob it might be applied
instead of leather. Paper already usurps the
place of leather to some extent in tbe manu
facture of shoes, and a cheap article that Is
more durable, will be used eiill more largely
The value of artificial leather (so called)
will, of course, depend on the cohesive power
which can be secured at a small expense, and
there is certainly room for experiment and
improvement here as in other departments of
manufacture. Still, it ia not leather aod can
not be made leather. Toughoese is tbe chief
quality wh ch gives the tanned hide its pecu
liar value. This tenacity ie in tbe fiber, and
as soon as the natural structure ia interfered
with, the property is destroyed. The pliabili
ty of the hide, too, will be hard to imitate.—
Artificial leather may be compared to the
mummy gods of antiquity, which were ao
•trangely compounded of the jumbled limbs of
animals.
The subject of the manufacture of artificial
leather is not thus alluded to so much for its
intrinsic importance as to illustrate anew the
faot we have so often urged upon our tanners,
that they and their processes are behind the
age; that the fact is observed by, and is
citing much interest among outsiders, and
that the former may, unless they inaugurate
a new movement! in the end be beaten on
theii own ground. The rivalry, thus far. to
be sure, appear* insignificant, but the agita
tion has commenced, and if sufficient promt
nance be aesigoed it to concentrate the inven
tive genius of the country, the tanners must
look to it that they be not caught napping.
Ciov. Drown and the Greiner Case*
Mr. Greiner was one of the soldiers in Sav
annah who, under the order of tbo Governor,
occupied Fort Pulaeki in January last. He
lately visited Philadelphia to eee tome of his
■iok relatives, aod there arrested under charge
of [treason agaisnt the Government of the
United 8tntes for haviog discharged bin duty
under the order of Gov. Brown in assisting to
take possession of Ihe Fort. He haa just been
discharged from arrest on giving bond for ten
thousand dollars for his good behavior, &c.
We speak by authority when we aav that
Ihe Governor of this State has watched with
close attention the progress of this case. The
bond he will consider a nullity, and If tbe
anthoritlea In Pennsylvania attempt to tnfloree
collection upon it, Gov. Brown will seize pro
perty belonging to, or debts due any of the
oitisena of Pennsylvania, and convert the tame
into money and pay to Mr. Greiner, •« hit se
curities all sum extorted from them on the
bond with all ooet and damages whieh they in
cur ; and in tbe event Mr. Greiner, or any
other citizen of Georgia, is imprisoned lo
Penoeylvnain, or any other Northern State,
for haviog obeyed hie orders in tbe matter of
Fort Pulaeki, or any other military order given
by him, he will, If.to be.found within tbe limits
of this State, or eleewhere within hie reach,
arraat and imprison two of the citizens of
such 8tate for every Georgian so confined, (01
he la discharged. And In theemoi Pewnayl-
vanla, or any other hostile State shall taka the
life of any citizen of Georgia In any neck ease
or upon stick pretext, Governor Brown, will
order the seizure and prompt execution of
twe oitisena of moh Stale to pay tbe penalty.
Upon thle the autheritlea ot eeeh hoetlle State
may raff with implicit confidence. Sstksm Un-
constitutional powers of tbe general govern
•nt. and to J&ln as ode man in fighting Its nu
thorised bail lee, do revereoee nevertheless, to
the great American prmdplee of self-govern*
menr, and sympathize deeply with her South
ern brethren in a noble and manly determi
nation to defend the tame. — '~ T
The resolutions protest against the Mar up
on tbe Confederate 8tatee, and annottbeed a
resolute determination to have no part or lot
directly or indirectly in its prosecution
Maryland earnestly desires a restoration
pence, and implores tbe President to aeeept
tha "Olive Branch" held ont by the Confed
erate States, whose President has over and
over again declared that they seek only self-
defence aod to be let alone; that Maryland
desires a peaceful recognition of tbe independ
•nee of tbe Confederate States, and hereby
gives her cordial assent thereto aa a member
of the Uoion ; tbat the preeeot military occu
pation of Marylaod for said purpose is flagrant
and in violation of the constitution and the
8tate, and hereby protests against tbe same,
at the same time calling on all good citizens
to abstain from all violent and unlaeful inter
ference of every sort with tbe troops in (ran
sit through our territory or quartered amoog
us.
The last resolution lays, under existing cir
cumstances, it is inexpedient to call a sorer

The Law of Clothlug lu Regard to Vol<
uuteers Received luto the Confederate
States.
Much misunderstanding seems to exist
among th* volunteer forces celled into the
Confederate service, in relation to the subject
of clothes and clothiog, and yet tbe law of
Congress controlling the question ie quite
olear, and admits of no two cons'ructiooj.—
Many Volunteer Companies, and Battalions
and Regiments, entered the Confederate ser
vice with tbe idea, tbat tbe War Department
would supply ail deficiencies of clothing among
them, and would moreover be prepared with
future supplies lo meet the accruing wants of
tbe soldiers; aud consequently, are now suf
fering in ibis respeot, because of the want of
proper information in the beginning, whioh
their officers and the Stale authorities should
have given. The law of Congress, as set forth
in tbe act " to provide for the public defence,’
reads as follows:
"Said volunteers shall furnish their own
clothes. When called into aotive service
"and while remaining therein, instead of olo
thing, every non commissioned officer and
"private in any company shall he entitled to
"money, in a sum equal to the cost of clothing
of a non commissioned officer or private ia
the regular army of the Confederate 8tates. "
By this late volunteers provide, at all times,
their own clothing, and receive therefor commit
tation in money, and in tbe passage of the law,
Congress evidently had in view those publio
exigencies that required Urge forces lo be
thrown into tbe field while yet the Govern
ment was in its infancy and stood provided
with no regular Quarter Master organization
We have been thus explicit because it is
highly desirable the matter should be thor
ougbly understood, ae well among those troops
already in service, as among those who are
daily expecting to be called into service. And
we think it would be well for the newspaper
press generally, to set forth, as we have done,
tbe eubjeot in the light of the law and the rea
•on of the lew.—Montgomery Advertiser.
From California.
A- writer from Sacramento to n New York
paper says:
Serious suspicions have been eirculated
concerning the sentiments and intentions of
General Johnson, the federal commander on
tbe coast. He has now some twelve or four
teen hundred federal troops on this coast. Ii
U apprehended that he ie ambitious of imita
ting Gen. Twiggs. These fears are strength
•ned by the fact tbat the meat of tbe subordi
nate officers are Southern men. Col. Beal,
who preceded Johnson in command, was ap
proaehed by the secessionists with proposi
tions to turn over lo them the Forte lo San
Franoisco harbor, and the arsenal at Beotcia
Tbe people of 8an Franoisco are entirely loy
al, and would eo-operate with the Govern
ment in retaking any station that may be sur
rendered; but regular soldiers, with all the
necessary artillery and ammunition, eould
hold these well fortified places for a long time
against any force that could ba raised in be
half of the government. Gen. Johnson is, I
believe, a native of Kentucny. He comman
ded in Texas some time before 1847. In the
fail of that year be was made brigadier geo
cral, and placed iu command of the army
dispatched to Utah. He may be a true man
and a patriotic soldier, but tbe popular imprea
•ion just at this time is the other way.
The Breekeoridge 8tate Committee have
qad a meeting. They resolved to call a State
Convention on the 11th of June, and prescrib
ed as a teat of party orthodoxy approval of tbe
Crittenden compromise, opposition to coer-
eion, aod to any attempt to enforce the feder
al laws by force within tbe seceding States. —
The Committee issued an address virtually
approving of tbe secession of the Southern
8letes, deprecating war with them. They al
so, by implication, dselare against the en
forcement of tbe revenue laws in California,
and assert that “ taxation of eommeroe in (be
harbor of a Stats ie tbe highest insult to sov
ereignty, and the most provoking of conflict."
This means that we should resist the tariff
here ae they have done in Charleston and
Savannah.
