SOUTHERN C FEDERACY. souihftn ®0«f»4er«tg ..J. UKHkY gMITU, ATLANTA. OaONOIA' THURSDAY, JULY 4, 1861. The Brutal CharaelarMIrs ef the 1*. coin Government. To-day we publish no rxtracl frrio the Lincoln nod hit minions bevu laid on thn Nashville S Louiavllle Railroad, from which It will bo seen that nothing «hat#w mo bn shipped SoutbgOXoept i*j a permit from thn Surveyor of thn Port, it It very surprising to us, that the people of Kentucky, claiming their State to be free aud independent, can •ubnt’i to such dictation. If Kentucky Was at war with another State or nation, ahe might eery properly prohibit har own citizens from selling supplies to tbe enemy. But sbs claims to be a free and inde pendent State, having tho right to control her internal affairs t; her own liking, without any outside interference or dictation from any source whatever In the contest between the United and the Confederate SUtes, she has officially declared her neutrality, given notice thereof to the world, and asserted that she will maintain it. We do not see how she permits this unheard-of infringement upon her rights, in the fsee of that declaration. If this is submitted to, era long aha will be throttled, aa Maryland and Missouri now are. But we have alluded to ibis “blockade” for the purpose of calling publio attention to feature of it, which characterises in a striking manner tbe hearllessuess and savage cruelty of tbe Northern scoundrels who are now mak ing this war on us. It is without a parallel in tbe history of civilised warfare, and is only equaled by the acts of low down savages with brutal instincts, who are not content with tri umph or defeat in a fair contest on tbe field of battle, but who will rob, set Are to houses, leave devastation in their wake, cleave asunder the heads of the aged oovered with gray hairs and upheld by trembling limbs, rip open the bod ies of defenseless women, and beat out the brains of innocent children. What we allude to is this: Lincoln's minions at Louisville are particu larly vigilant in preventing the shipment of medicines to the South—especially quinine and morphine. The trunks, valises, .carpet sacks, and pockets, of travelers are carefully search ed, lest they have a bottle of contraband phys ic among their apparel or about their peraona. All physic is utterly prohibited, and the espe cial watchfulness of the scoundrels is directed to preventing either quinine or morphine from coming among us. These are two articles ol prime necessity in the treatment of the diseases of the South. The interdiction upon them, is a war—not against those who have manfully buckled on their armor and gone forth bravely and openly to meet and give them battle; but against the innocent and defenseless women, obildren and negroes, who remain iu the Sooth, and are here to be the victims of our diseases. This is an attempt on the part of the inhuman and unprincipled Yankee Government to scatter death without remedy, among Lhoee who are unable to lift a hand against them. None bat cruel savages, haviug none of the instincts of elevatrd humanity, and who never felt the in- flu-nces of morality, religion, or so educated aud eolightened Christianity, can be actuated by motives to fiendlike and brutal. People of the South! these are your late Confederates ! This is the character of those who are trying to reduce you to submission, the must degrading that mortals ever en dured. The Indians. A Convention of Delegates from the Choc taws. Cbickasaws, Creeks and Chcrokees, met with the Comtnisftioner of the Confederate Stales, Hon. Albert Pike, at Perryvllle, C. N., on the 24th ult. He was authorised to form an alliance with them and to guarantee to them the same privileges, rights aud annuities they have heretofore enjoyed under the old govern ment. Long ago those Indians had made known thul an abolition army should never in vade their country. The official proceedings of the Convention have not come to hand, but we have semi-official Information from a source which we deem altogether reliable, that the al liance will be formed. The Nation has already declared Itself Independent of the old govern ment—In other words, seoeded. They are Intel, ligent, enterprising, and slaveholding. They are already raising large numbers of soldiers, and are enlisting enthusiastically under Ben Mc Cullough, in whom they have the utmost con fidence. Wc will, In a few days, lay before our reader* further information concerning these Indians. The Comet. This beeutifal Heavenly visitor, makes it appearance for the first time—hence, it is un heralded, and has no history. It was diaoov- ered at Cambridge University during the early part of the preeent year. That institution, out of reepeet for the Hon. Joeiah Quincy, its for mer President, allowed him to name it.

Thus, England and France bare excluded pri.nleera from enter ing, or selling prizes, in their pons. The course of a friendly nation, towards two na tions at war with esoh other, has always teen to allow the vessels of both to enter its ports, with whatever they msy have, whether it be merobaodise in common, or prizes captured at sea. This privilege is now denied us; and fuither, our independence is not yet recogui zed. The Mercury thinks our Commissioners ought to be recalled forthwith, and no others sent to Europe, and a different policy adopted—one that would compel our early recognition, and insure our acknowledgement in Europe as an equal among tbe family of nations, without ever being again solicited by us to do so.— Here are its ideis of what should be done, which we lay before our readers, without wish ing to be considered as indorsers of the views: We know nothing of the powers given to our Commissioners to treat with these nations; but whatever they are, it is clear that our Commissioners havt failed in their mission.— The Confederate States must resort to other instrumentalities than negotiation to make themselves respected and their independence acknowledged. Three obvious measures, it appears to us, ought to bs adopted; let. Tbe consuls or coorular agents of th United Slates in the ports of the Confederate States ought to be dismissed. The Confeder ate States have allowed them to reniaiu iu their ports to give foreign nations the oppor* tunity of appointing them as oonsuls or agents to the Confederate States. The nations they represent not having availed themselves of the opportunity, they should be requited to cease their offices as consuls or agents to the United States in the Confederate States. I should no longer be tolerated that foreign na lions, by their consuls to tLe United Stales in ths Confederate States, should practically de oy the independence of the Confederate States, and treat them as portions of the United States. 2d. The second measure which the Confed erste States should adopt, is to withhold their agricultural productions from all nations which do not acknowledge their independence and seek their friendship. It other nations choose to oonsider us as portions of the United States, let them go to the United Slates Government for all the advantages and facilities of trade they may desire. Let them go to that Qov eminent for the cotton, tobacco, naval stores and lumber they may need. If they want our ootton, tobacoo, naval stores and lumber, they mutt treat ue in tbeir commercial relstioos, not as suhjeots or colonies of the United States, but as their equals in nationality as in tribe.— Let the Confederate Congress, which will meet in three weeks lime, place the alternative dis tinctly before all foreign nations—the ac knowledgement of our independence, or no trade. 8d. Our Commissioners ought immediately to be reoalled from Europe. Nor do we think tnat any other Commissioners ought to he sent to Europe. If any European nation desires our friendship or commeroe hereafter, let them send Commissiuners to us. True polioy and dignity, alike, require that we ehoulu with draw ourselves absolutely from all intercourse with all nations whioli do not recognise our existence as an independent people. In nine months there will not bs a hale of eottoo in Great Britain or France to keep their looms in operation. In nine months ths regie of France on tobacoo will come to an end. Let us fairly and bravsly try the experiment, whether it ia not juet es important to France and Great Britain to recognize our iodepeu- dence as it is for us to recognize theirs. We must oonvince ths world of our importance to it before we will be respected or cherished; and the sooner, perhaps, this is done the bel ter for us, and the better for Ike world. Choctaw Indians. We extract the following from the “ Nation al Register," a spirited and able journal pub lished at Boggy Depot in the Choctaw Nation : “TheGeneral Council has declared the In- dependence of the Chootaw Nation. Her in terests are inseparably connected with the South—and with the South we eland or fell.— us forget party strife and personal ani mosities, and oome up to the defense of our heartk-elones end our common eountry as one man.

[Newspapers throughout the Confederate 8tstes are requested to copy.] Trouble Among our Volunteers at Pertn- m oat h. We regret to hear that there is serious dis satisfaction in the Third Kegimeut, Colonel Wright, at Portsmouth We have b«*en shown a letter, in which it is stated that several of the officers and about seven hundred of the men belonging to the Regimeut had signed a petition, requesting the Colonel to resign. Col. Wright, hearing of it, made tbe Regiment a speech, declaring it a disorganized mob, Ac. Calling the officers together, he stated that some of them had been guilty of trying to ex cite mutiny. Cant. Blodget*, of the Blodget Volunteers, who bad signed the petition re questing Col. Wright to resign, then steppec forward and said he had never disobeyed any order, had always maintained strict discipline in his company, but that he bad signed the petition, believing that the humblest citizen of the Con federate States had the right of petition guaranteed, and that as Col. Wright bad been elevated by their votes, the officers and men of the Regiment could respectfully petition him to resign. Whereupon Capt. Blodget was ordered to deliver up his swora and consider himself under arrest. There was great mo mentary excitement, many of bis men, and some of the Young Guard, crying out, “ Don’t give up your sword, Captain." But Captain Blodget restored quiet, and surrendered hit •word, and since last Saturday, when this oc curred, baa been under arrest. We suppose there will be a Court Martial ordered by Pres ident Davis, when tho whole matter will be rigidly investigated. We anxiously await fur ther and fuller particulars, and the action of tbe Court Martial. We find the foregoing in the “ Chronicle A Sentinel” of the 3d instant. We regret inch a stale of affairs. We know nothing of the cause o( this dissatisfaction on the part of the Reg iment with ita Colonol—whether on the ground of incompetency or not. Iu tbe meantime, we take occasion to refer to un editorial on “ Mil itary Commanders" which appeared in oui paper of the 14th of May, aud again reitera'e the views then expressed. From the I.oulavllle Courier, 24th Junt Our Trade with the South—Plain Pacta —The l.uulaville A Nashville Hail toad —The Stoppage of Shipment*. The President, without any legal authority for doing so, has prohibited tbe people of Ken tucky from selling their agricultural and me chanical products to the States South of us and all at once the apologists and defenders of tbe Administration have discovered that the people of Kentucky owe it to themselves to stop trading with the South. The Congress alone is authorized by the Constitution to regulate “commerce among tbe several States;” but the President has usurped that power, ai.d has undertaken, by force, if he shall deem it necessary, to regu late and eveu prohibit oomraeroe between the Slates at his sovereign will and pleasure; and the sbriekers for the Constitution and the Union, justify this violation of the Constitu tion on grduods sufficiently absurd to prove that their own interests and the gratification of their own feelings, aud not respect for the laws or regard lor the public weal, influence their action. The President has ordered the shipment of hogs, meat, corn, wheat, hemp bagging and bale rope, plows, reapers, and all agricultural implements, machinery, castings, &o , &o., from Kentucky to Tennessee and tbe South, to be stopped, and announced that if force is necessaty to carry this order into effect, it will be used—in substance, that if to cut off our farmers, our manufacturers, and our pro ducers of all descriptions from a market for the sale of their products; if to dose our workrhops aud stop operations on our farms ; if to throw our laborers of all kinds out of employment,—if to do these things it is nec essary to send soldiers among ue, and to re duce our city to ashes even, it must be done. And our people are told that it ia right, not because it is legal, but because we ought not to trade with the South! Now, fellow-citizens, we ask you to oonsid er this matter—to consider it calmly and with an eye to your owu interests, and with respect to your own honor and duty. Andrew Johuaon a Tory by Descent. The Knoxville Register asserts, on tbe au thority of a gentleman who has traced the traitor’s lineage, “that Andy Johnson is of lory descent. Absalom Johnson, n granJfaih er of Aody, was a South Carolina tory through tbe Revolutionary war, and nil the descend ants and family connections in that 8tate are branded with toryism to this day.” Is there not some mistake about this? We have an indialinot recollection of reading, a few years ago, a speech made by Rev. Wm. G. Brownlow, in Naabville, repealed ia Knox ville, and afterwards published in the Knox ville Whig, in which, if we recollect aright, it was stated (hat Andy Johnson’s family were North Carolinians, that many of them were horse thieves and such characters, nnd that some of them iml been whipped at the pillory and branded, hod perhaps acme sent to the penitentiary. We think Brownlow alee said hat most people had some mean Am, bnt Andy had no other sort. New all this dost not pre clude the Idea of tory descent, but may go as collateral evidence to prove it—that is, a fan ily of boras thieves may, without vloleaee, be presumed to some of tory stock, but lei Novtb, not South Carolina, bear tbo. ehnuM of beiog the home eT such a people.

Some details of Mr. Cobb’s scheme of finan ciering have reached us. it is proposed, it seems to relievo each planter at once of half of bit orop and transport it to New-Orleans When it will have reached that point, England will be notified of its readiness tor her shops; and will of course break up tbe blockade and take it. The remainder of the crop will be moved subsequently, and with a similar result This project will doubtless answer tbe pri mary purpose for which it was designed, li is quite rational enough for rebel reasons ; and it will of course bring the Cotton and dis pose of the scrip. But at New Orleans the obancesare that tbe staple will fall into the hands of Uncle Sam rather (ban those of John Bull. Tbe latter has declared he will in no oir cumstance interfere with tbe blockade; while the former has ample warrant for regarding Colton obtained a means of raising a war re venue, as continSan ’, to be seized under neu tral flags, or if necessary, iu warehouses at New Orleans. It must not be forgotten that that city is at tbe mercy of hostile squadrons, moving both up and down the river ; and that it has no defences sufficient to repel a fleet, whose shot and shell could destroy it in a few hours. New Orleans and its Cotton deposits would thus be laid inaebea before Europe should get tbe first bale — NewYork Times, 24/A inst. Volunteer Militia Officers. Iu view of the numerous volunteer corps which have been recently formed in our own State, and all over the South, we have thought some attention due at this time to the subject of the eelectiou of officers. The most promiuent,in many an assemblage for the selection o( officers, has been, we (ear, what may be called your political military man. His military tastes and efficiancy are ad captandum, superficial and destitute of heart aod earnest purpose. He is ambitieus of of fice-ready to risk his own life, and to sacrifice the lives of all under him, with his eye ever on the civil honors of his countrymen as his reward. A courtier, who is eloquent in his praises of the citizen soldiery, the fountains of patriotism are under bis tongue, and the victo ries of your forefathers are only to be surpass ed by those to which he will point (he way.— Who ao fit for a leader? Electhim! Yes, to tbe Legislature or the Senate. Make him a Governor, a President— anythlog, rather than give him a military command. He will uae jou a mere stepping stones to civil station. He would give a cold support to troone where another would reap the glory. He would march you to death, to be up in time to be named as on the field of battle, not to do effi- ent service, hut that it mixht count him so many votes in an election.— Charleston Mercu ry, June 27. The Difference. The New York “Expreaa" of the 28th ultimo •ays i It is a great mistake to suppose that a blood appose t hound it s courageous dog The men who have plunged ua into tnia war, who have hallded on the people, are men that have wisely stayed at home. And apart of the plan to cover up their own want or courage, is to keep up the cry of war. The rebels in the South who planned the dissolution of the Union, who ad vocated it in Congress and in newspapers and on the stump, are the men who have taken the field, wbils tbe Northern Editors and Con gressmen and Senators who opposed compro mise, who let us drift into this war, nay, who dragged ua into it, are at borne making con tracts to supply army stores, and ahoutiss “traitor” at every man who vantareete remind them of the evil they have brought on the country, or suggest a remedy for it.
