ty would he binding on the Government, the
merchant would Mod the good*-the shipper
would take on ike cargo; it could be iniuredp
and an advance could be had on ii. Thic illua-
traifoe points out the difficulties in tbe wey.
We have been too long looking to Hew York
for oar importations—too long a provinciali
sed people—tiering at a man from London;
but new we have set up for ou reelves and under
tekentoget along witkont New York. This
must be by Direct Trade. One of year city
merchants hes gone to Kurope to look af*
ter his own interests in this line; and—1 do
not make the remark disrespectfully—I ven
ture that ha will do more good to the cause of
the Southern Gonftderecy than the Com mis
sion srs we have sent there. Europe ceres noth-
iog for secession—tbe Dred Boott decision, or
slavery in the territories- not a bit of it Our
oommerceis what they want—our cctton they
must have. Jeff. Davis is a truly great man.
We ell have the utmost confidenoe in him as a
statesman, and as the brightest military geni
us in America; bnt he never kept a set of
books, and perhaps could not tell muslin from
calico. Our cotton must go direct to Europe
and goods bs brought back in the seme way.
1 happen to know that Kew York has not ab
andoned her hope of regaining this trade. She
expects to bold on to it by htr superior com
mercial fecilitiee. After this war is over
end our independence recognized, there will
be an immsnec reduction of freights, and their
Congrees will reduce the tariff, so that goods
can be sent from Europe to Kew York, and
from thence to Charleston, cheaper then by
Direct Trade. We have no arrangements in
Europe for purchasing goods. Our merchants
do not know the English merchants, and they
do not know us, nor wkat we want. We have
no eorreepoodents in Europe. Tell me of the
merchant in Georgia that can go to Europe and
get goods! New York merchant* do know ns,
and know what we want. Do you suppose our
merchants can abandon their counters and
desks, and go to hunting up goods in Europe?
After the war'is over—after we shall have
done the Yankees the great favor of killing off
their rabble and agrarian elements, their drum
mers will be all over the South with tbeir sam
ples and duplicate samples, and we will go
back to ordering goods from New York. Are
the people of the South reedy for this? We
must work out and achieve our commercial as
well ae political independence. If ws do not,
one day we shall, through commercial influ
ences, be brought back into the same old Un
ion again, and be no better off than before we
•eoeded. The merobant and planter must both
step forward and secure this independence,
while the revolution is going on. Our bank
ers and merchants, instead of getting credit
from New York, must hereafter gat it in Lon
don, Paris, Hamburgh, Frankfort, Ao. This
can only ha dons by tusking arrangements for
it. I know thsre ere now men of immense
capital in New York, ready to establish large
banking houses in Enrope, in connection with
the hecks of the South, to afford us tbe credit
and facilities we need, if we will only estab
lish Direct Trade and forever cut off from the
North.
The Chamber of Commerce of Atlanta should
have a room, books, correspondents and circu
lars in English, French and German, and have
them judiciously distributed throughout Eu
rope. The Chamber should secure correspond
ents in all the prominent marts of trade, end
have consignments of goods sent direct to this
place. Yon should form a Central Associa
tion, in connection with the merchants of oth-
fore, when a man swears Woe uilff’tp™ to
r ; hear to a Government, he expects that Go* em
inent to be true to him. This is the condition
upon whleh oh tbs of naterallsstioe and oaths
of office ere takes. It is not expressed at tba
time, bat It le implied as strongly as any wordr
could set ft forth. Tbe consideration for which
a common note of hand is given, Is not ex
pressed ee tbe face of it; yet no man can he
found who wilt contend that the tanker ef a
note is bound, after tbe eonsideraflten foils.—
fa such case our laws relieve him, and no man
dare impeach the honor ef one who refuses to
pey a nets under sach circumstances. No
man has a greater obligation resting upon him
to observe aa oath, than be bis to pay a note
that he has made.
No honest man has any objections to taking
an oath when it is required of him—no objec
tions to swearing to what be knows to be true,
or to perform in good faith that which be hon
estly intends to perform; bet an honest man
does hot recognise the oath as imposing any
highar obligation upon him, than big honor.
It is only a solemn form of acknowledging
previously existing obligations, whioh honor
requires of good men. A man who will loll a
lie wi’l tioear to one; and a man who would
tarnish his honor, would not hesitate to vio
late his oath.
But the officers of the United States Army
and Navy took an oath to support The Conati-
tution— not tha unlawful behests of those who,
through perjury, violate that instrument; and
those of them who have seceded and are now
in the Confederate Army, have not violated
that instrument. They have only refused to
be particep* criminia with those who have, with
a high hand, violated its provisions and wil
fully trampled its sacred principles in the
dust. These seceding officers have manifested
tbe sacred regard they have for tbeir oaths,
and for th# Constitution they swore to support,
by resigning tbeir commissions and joining the
Confederate Army. We honor them for it. Tbe
Constitution—its saersd principles and teach
ings—havs wronged no one. It is by the Gov
ernment—the agents named in the Constitution
to carry out its intentions—that its principles
have been disregarded, subverted and tramp
led upon both in letter and spirit. The officers
now in the Confederate Army who have left
that of tbe United States, have only turned
against a vile set of perjured usurping despots,
and not against the Constitution. These brave,
honest and conscientious officers had too much
regard for their honor to violate the Constitu
tion, aa long as that Constitution did not wrong
them : hence they have turned their hands
against perjurers ; for, according to Mr. Buch
anan’s own showing, every officer now engaged
in making war on us is perjured. He says
the Constitution gives no power to coerce a
State, and that tbe attempt to do so, would be
subversive of its principles.
An attempt has been made to frighten natu
ralised citisens into taking up arms against ns
because of the oath they have taken. The re
marks previously msds apply with equal force
in this case. Indeed, we do not understand
how the oppressed foreigner, seeking a refuge
from tyranny in this country, where he may
enjoy the blessings of liberty to himself and
his posterity, can consent to remain In tha
North—much less taks up arms in its present
unholy crussde—seeing that a worse despotism
is now inaugurated in tbe North, than that
from which they have escaped in the Old
World.

The scenes upon this island ('‘Coohapur ’)

air of the fish, have become too familiar to
awaken any but a passtDg notice from the
oeoped up rtgalart Each day wa go through
our appointed drills, clean oar muskets, and
retire to rest, or rather to the attitude of reet,
for I assure you, I sometimes feel no more re
freshed when I awake than I do when I lie
down. We have no hay to fill our sacks with
and though we have boardt, (a luxury a very
few of us enjoy,) it is anything hut a comfort
able bed to one who has had the good fortune
heretofore of having the downy pinions of
some unfortunate goose to repose open. I
think we ought to be furnubed (though we are
regulars, whom nobody caret for,) with some
thing more than a blanket to lie upou. I at
tach no blame to the officers, especially our
own. Thank heaven ! they are gentlemanly,
kind, and nothing, no matter what be the cost,
is denied that tends to render the men of our
company eomfortable and respectable in ap.
peffrance. But they cannot run all over the
country for straw, and we do not, if they could,
wish them to leave us. Those at h>me— thoee
who havo plenty, and to whom it will cost
but little trouble—should attend to the maitor;
and I predict that there are many farmer*, sad
others, who, if they knew bow much comfort
it would afford tba poor d Is here, would
send supplies of straw whenever need. * •
To a merciful Providence we owe much ;
for, considering the number here, Ac., there
is little sickness, and to my knowledge, but
three have died; one of those, poor fellow, fell
asleep last Dight. His name was H. Newton,
from Cobb county. I visited the Hoepital last
night It is an awful place; the walla look as
though they never were whitewashed ; every
thing looked dingy, and flies covered th* wall
as thick as bees do their hives. Low, on dirty
straw, lit the sufferers with tbeir clothing for
pillewe. Oh, how much is tbe tender care of
woman missed I Man cannot fill her place io
the sick room. The 8urgeons with whom 1
have become acquainted, or rather, who I
know by my optics, are, I think, attentive and
kind, and no doubt do all they can for tbeir pa
tients; but, at best, to me, it is a shocking
sceue to behold, and I Shall not go thero, ex
cept it be on a visit, and then only when I
may think I can do some good. Plenty are
there to attend the eick; and the officers, some
of them, visit regularly; but you know that
“too many fingers spoil the pie,” and one per
son is apt to wait for the other to perform tbe
work. As 1 said before, thank heaven, there
are only a few who are seriously sick. The
measles seem to be the worst disease prevail

by the Railroad companies in this State, aod
tbe Stale, will probably fall aomewhere be
tween 225 and 250. To keep this equipment
full will require 20 new engines toually, with
out any provision for increased traffioor equip
ment of unfinished lines. If we embrace the
States of Sooth Carolioa, Tea&tssc* aod Ala-
bams, tbe number of engine* required annu
ally will probably make 5U. This would give
full work to oa* extensive manufactory. How
shall such an establiahiasnt be put in opera
tion? The answer is readily suggested, that
it can be done most easily and efficiently by
the joint action of our Railroad Compeutua.—
It is true that superior locomotives have been
built in the shops of tbe Central Railroad, the
Georgia Railroad, and the Woalero A Atlantic
Railroad, but all conversant witb this subject
understand the reasons why suoh sources can
not economically supply their own want*,
much less the wants of all the Railroads of
tbe 8tate of Georgia. The ehops attached to
our Railroad*, as well as to aH others of whioh
tbe writer has any knowledge, are repair-shops,
not designed for building locomotive engines —
The skillful and well tried master machinist*
of our Roads could supply all the practical Ini
formation and working plans in the commaaaa
ment, and the Superintendents of the Roads
would be just the men needed as a Board of
Managers. fTf p y *T TA O
These crude Ideas and hints are thrown out,
trusting that this subject may engage the earn
est attention of those most deeply interested.
