WWW SOUTHERN M § outturn ConftdtfMg /. mSJTL T MMMTM, Cw-KsNinr. ATLANTA, aiORQIAi SATURDAY, JUNE 1, 1861. Sustain the Government. All the farmers who make any surplus cot- ton. wheat, corn, Ac.,—staple agricultural pro ductions—are called upon to sell the same to our Government, and take its hoods in pay ment, to sustain us in the present war. Tha Government wants $50,000,WO, and propoaea to procure it from our own people, rather then from ebroad, and to take that which our own people have to spare, rather than ask them for naonejr. Every farmer, from the least to the greatest, raises something to sell. The Govern ment propoaea to take that part of avary mao’s crop, and pay for it in Confederate Bonds. The cotton, wheat, corn, Ao., will anewer the purpose of our Government the same as so much money, while bonds a ill also be the same to our people as money. The bonds will be a circulating me dium, and will be a better ourrency than any hank ieeuee, because upon a more substantial basis, and will not gst out of their "locality" by crossing a State line. They will be more convenient than gold, equally as good, and, thertforo, on tha whole, a better currency than specie. These bonds bear interest at 8 per cent, which is pa/fble semi annually. This arrangement will be a great conven ience to farmere in the sale of their produce. They will know just where it is to be told, and will not have to go into the market to be chaf fered with and cheated by sharpers. Every pound of cotton or tobacco, or bushel of corn, wheat or rice, which a farmer will have to spare, ha can at once engage to the Govern ment *nd then he at no further trouble about finding sale for it This plan is one of the most mutually ad vantageous that ever was devised by any Gov ernment to raise funds. It is not only an ad vantage to the people in the ways mentioned, and in many others, but by it, the Govern ment, supplies its wants without going to cor morant money shavers, who demand exhorbi- tant rate* of interest— who live by heavy shaves and big per cents, and gouge as deeply as pos sible every one who dealt with them—especial ly Governments— though these remarks do not apply to the moneyed men of the South, aa to Wall Street financiers, for, among all classes here, we have more virtue than in any other part of the world. The "old wreck "has been borrowing large ly for years; and every time a call has been made, its agents have gone "shinning round" in Wall Street, making terms with those whose aim has always been to clutch everything pos sible by all sort* of foul combinations and un- patriotio conduct. If our Government bad at tempted to get money abroad, it would have obtained it readily—for its loans were solicited by European capitalists; but it would have had to endure the same fiayidg and gouging operation, to a greater or lees extent, that all others do who go to such sources for means of support. All this is wisely and most happily avoided, by our Government taking from our people that which they have to spare, and which will answer their purpose exactly the same as so much gold; and then giving in re turn for it that which exactly suit* the peo ple. From addresses which have been issued to the planters of Georgia, by Messrs. Howell and T. K A. Cobb, and E. A. Nesbit, we see that every member of Congress has been constitut ed an agent of the Government, to bring this subject before the people of the Confederacy, aod take their subscriptions. The plan was set forth in the late speech of ex-Gov. Cobb at this place, which we published. With the re marks we now make, and from that speech, all our readers will understand this matter—hence, we do not publish either of the addresses, on account of the great pressure of news, Ac., on our columns. We are very sure that nothing is needed but to lay the plan before our peo ple, to have a most hearty response. We an nex the form of subscription, with a copy of the Act authorising its TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION. We, the eubecribers, agree to contribute to the defence of the Confederate States the por tion of our crop set down to oar respective names; the same to be plaoed in ware house, or in our lector's hands, and told on or before the first day of next; and the net proceeds of sale we direct to be made over to the Treasurer of the Confederate Statea, for bonds for same amount, bearing eight per cent? interest.

AN ACT, To authorize a Loan and issue of Treasury Notes, and prescribe the punishment for forging the same, and for forging certificates ot Stock and Bonds. Section 1. Ths Congress of the'Confederate States of America do enact, that the Secretary of the Treasury may, with the assent of the President of the Confederate Slates, issue fifty millions of dollars in bonds, payable at tha expiration of twenty years from their date, aud bearing a rate of interest not exceeding 8 per cent, per annum until they become pave- ble, the said interest to be paid semi-annually. The said bonds, after publto advertisement in three newspapers within the Confederate States for six weeks, to be sold for specie, mil itary stores, or for the proceeds of sales of raw r roduce or manufactured articles, to be paid a specie or bills of exchange, in such a man ner and under snob regulations as may be pre- scribed by the Secretary of the Treasury, with the aeeeut ot the President. But ft shall be the duty of the Secretary of the Treasury to report, at iU uext ensuing session, to the Con. gross of tha Confederate Statea a precise state ment of his transactions under the law. Nor shall the said bonds be issued in fractional pai U of the hundred, or to be exchanged by the said Secretary for Treasury notes, or the notea of any bond, corporation, or Individual, hut only in (he manner herein prescribed ; Provided, That nothing herein contained shall be so construed as to prevent the Beer*, tary of (he Treasury from receiving foreign bills of enchange in payment of these bonds.

French, and have lossy that be is the most anmltfgated, unprin cipled Yankee sneak wa ever taw anywhere — He is from Now Hampshire, and is one of the oorrupt hangers on and lebbyfWawi'ODufi thp ( Federal Capitol, and has been for several yean. He was a Democrat and Marshal of the Dis trict of Columbia undsr Franklin Pierce, and op to that time wss considered an honest and respectable men, so ftr ss we know. From some esuse he was turned out of the office, and has been lying areund there, living on the "plckiags and stealings’* whioh he shares with those whom he helps to "put through” such jobs. Lsst year he connected himself with the Black Republican Association of Washington City, and was made its President. In a day or two after the Presidential elaotion, ha had pe titions circulating among the citissns of Wash ington, to which hs was soliciting signatures, praying Old Abe to appoint him Marshal of the District—showing the animus of his Black Republicanism. His gait, as he walks—the intonations of his voice, when in conversation, and everything about him, indicate, to an in telligent observer, that be is a low Hung Yan kee sneak, without a particle of honesty in his composition. His object in issuing the address is this: He hopes to induce some of the Knights Templar in the South, to refuse to take up arms against the invaders of our soil. This is one of the means resorted to by our enomiea to spread dis affection among us. ne asks the Templars in the South to "labor aud pray that hoatilitiea may be suspended till the mild counsels of peace can be appealed to." The meaning of this is, that the South stop all their military movements until Lincoln shall have bound us hand and foot. Wherever his address goes, his true character, and his evi dently wicked motives should be proclaimed. Vanished. This morning wa breathe more freely. The last vestige of Lincoln’s hateful Government has departed from us forever, at the command of our worthy Post Master General. The Post Offices and Mails in tbe South have been nom inally—under the control of tbe Government at Washington—at least tba Mails have been oarried under its contracts, and the offices have been regulated by its laws. It is done. No more have they a show of authority among us. No more do any of their laws or regulations have any force among us, except such as have been solemnly re-enacted by our own authori ties. It is wiped out from among us, world without end. Would to God that we could ■ay, Farewell! Peace go with you!—or some thing so; but we cannot. Our burning ven geance shall follow aud haunt the wicked agents of that "old wreck" and all their tools, until their haughty prida and demon*lust for gold aud power shall be laid low in tha dust. North-weateru Virginia Has been heard from. There are nineteeu counties that give a majority against Secession; and in the Panhandle and the extreme North west counties, the majorities agsiost it are large. From the best dat ta*hat was at hand in Richmond on the 27th inst., it was apparent that the whole anti-Secession vote in the State would be between 20,000 aud 25,000. It was estimated that tbe entire vote of the State would be the largest ever polled—probably reaching 180,000—and that tbe majority for Se cession would be about 130,000. We have not the slightest doubt that the whole State will cheerfully uquiesce in the legally expressed will of this vast majority, ex cept the Panhandle counties and tha city of Wheeling. We are not sufficiently posted on the feeling there to give a very positive idea on the subject. They may refuse to abide by tbe decision of the people, and perhaps will be allowed to attash themselves to Ohio or Pennsylvania. Tbia, howevar, is mera conjec ture, without any knowledge of how the mat ter will finally terminate. Kentucky Invaded. We aee it stated in our exchanges, that the ■oil of Kentucky has been invaded by Lin coln’s vandals, from Cairo. It is said that they have occupied Paducah and Columbus. The news comes in ths shape of telegraphic dis patches, and we do not know to what extent it is true. If so, it would seem that tha posi tion of armed neutrality which the State has taken, will at once be put to a test. Arms from ths United State* Government have been sent into tbe State and distributed at various points. This was dons in responce to a call from the Union men in the State. Th* 8onthern Rights men had not, and do not now have, the slightest objection to it. The arm* will fall into the hands of friends of the South very generally. Georgia Troops in the Field, Governor Brown informed us ytsUrday that Georgia now had nine thousand men, armed, equipped, and in the field; and that he had ordered Gen. Phillips' Brigade of 2,500 men to Camp at 8myrna on the 11th instant, on half pay, for drill for two months—subject to the order of th* President at any moment; that two othar regiments wars being organised now, and that ha should respond to all demands made by the President without regard to the quota properly duo from Georgia.

To blockade tbo Cotton ports is to destroy th* British Cotton trade ; to involve, not in remote, but in immediate destitution, sev eral millions of the British people," eto. Here is another "shadow” unmistakably in dicating that tbe "coming event” is not far off. The Liverpool Times of tbe 4th instant ■ays: "Alrtidy tbe effeets of this lamentable strife are beginning to reach us. We have now only twenty three weeks consumption of American Cot ton in this country and at sea, which must speed ily compel the spinners to lessen their productiot —an event only inferior in the misery it will cause to the civil strife now passing in America. The stock of East India Cotton held in this port it considerable, being 200,000 bales, against 90,000 bales at Ibis time last yaar, and great exertions will be made throughout the Cotton diet riot s of India to occupy tbe ground which tbe American planters have va cated ; but all changes of this kind must nec essarily be progressive, and it is clear (bat we have very discouraging proapeots to look in the face, arising o»t of the unhappy position of affairs in the Western world.” Well, it may be asked, what ia that "com tog event” now casting its “ shadow before ?”— Refer to the quotation from the London Her ald Read the extract from the Liverpool Timas. England only bad, on the 4th of this month, "twenty-three weeks” Cotton supply on hand ; aod tbe "daily bread of four or five millions” of her people depends upon that supply being kept up. By tba 1st of Ju ly, the shoe will begin to pinch John Bull be yond the power of endurance. He then will have only fifteen weeks supply. He must, therefore, have supplies of the new crop as fast as it can be brought to market and ship ped ; and if Lincoln’s blockade is kept up, he will sink Liocolo’sblocksding squadrons,clear tbe seas of Lincoln's ships, aod blockade, very likely, all Northern ports, nntil Lineoln and his advisers are awakened to such a proper sense of their duty as to be glad to make peace. England must have Cotton, if her leading journals are to be believed, at any price. Not a bale can she or any other nation get from us while our ports are blockaded. The Cat* ton will remain on tbe plantation* until the coasts are cleared. The Southern people oan well afford to bide their time, aa thay plainly sea a coming event casting a mighty shadow in advanee of its appearance.— New Orleans Cret ent. Reminiscence of Gen* Harney. The defection of this unprincipled traitor to the ranks of the abolition army ia not a surprising faot, when we coma to appreciate tbe infamy of bis past career. As we are advised by a gentleman of this city wbo knew him personally more than twenty years ago at his borne in Missouri, the records of the Franklin county oourt, as far back as 1837, shows that be was publicly tried under charge for whipping to death negro woman in his employ, for an alleged larceny, of which she was afterwards found guiltless. The indictment against him was found in tbe county of St. Louis, but the ven ue was changed to Franklin, owing to tbe oir- oumstaocts of tbe presiding Judge (Mnllau- phy) being and interested party. Tbe charge to the jury was delivered by Judge Allen, and (be verdict was that said negro oame to her death by beiug whipped to death with a cow hide, in tbe hands of William S. Harney.— These facts can be sustained by responsible men whose names we have on band. Besides tbia piece of atrocity, this chival rous commandant of Lincoln’s western divi sion of myrmidons has been charged by army officers with tbe most arrant oowardlce. He VM furthermore charged by Gen. 8cott with "ig norance, passion and caprice," and in a let ter dated July 29, 1801, to the War Depart ment, he is branded as being "notorious for profanity, brutrality, incompetency, pecula tion, recklessness, insubordination, iyraaaj, and mendacity 1” Ws only mention this ar ray of evidenoe for tbe purpose of showing what must be the moral charaoter of that man wbo would basely desert his section in tbe hour of her peril, and wield theeword for tbe ■laughter of his countrymen.
