SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. -) »• i QEO. W. A PAIR HKHLT SMITH, fi EDITOR# ADD ATLANTA, (i|OR«Ut FRIDAY, JULY 19, 1861. Take care of the Coast—Take care of your Cottoa* It ia svident that bo attack will bo made on oar eoeai ikko sanamsr and fall. Lincoln is afraid of Yollow Jack; but wa may ozpootour •» apart* to bo availed next win lor. Tbea the war will bo vigorously pushed against ua, both on tho coast and on th* border. Now it the time that our troupe by a bold and vigorous ef fort, should drive the enemy from our borders and break up their footing there. When win ter comes, our men from the South cannot stand tho Virginia climate as wall as the Yan kees ; hence, they will then bare the advant age of us in that respect. On this score we consider delays dangerous. But when Jack Frost has killed Yellow Jack, wo may look out for all our aoaports to bo attacked and our wholaooaet to bo invaded, wherever a landing can bo effected. Aro wo ready for this? Are our authorities alive to this important consideration f We hope so. In view of this, we advise all our farmers not to ship their cotton to market until very near the time for telling it. Five hundred thousand bales at Charleston or Savannsb; or a million at Mobile or New Orleans, would be an additional inducemsnt to the thieving Lin- coluitee to take the eiiy. Wouldn’t it be rel ished by the scoundrels to capture our cotton send it to Europe, get the money for it, end expend it in our subjugation, or supply their own idle mills with it? It must not be per mitted. Thereto: t, we eay to every farmer, don’t scud your cotton to market, till you know it can be sold as toon as it reaches the place. “But what about the Cotton Loan and the number of bales I have agreed to have in market on e certain day ?” many will ask. There is no difficulty on that score. Unless the blockade is raised, the cotton cannot be sold. If it can’t be sold, the Government don’t want it at market. The Government will be es effectually served with your cotton at home under your own shelter, as lying ins ware house in Augusta or Savannah, if it cannot be sold.' When it can be sold, the planter will want it at market, and so will the Govern ment. As Mr. Hill so tersely expresses it: “The interests of the planter and tho Govern ment are exactly parallel, and conflict no where.” Don’t send your cotton to market before it can be sold. P. 8. Since the foregoing was written we find the following letter in the Charleston " Mercury Confeuebats States or America, Treasdbt Department, Richmond, July 11, 1801 lion. O. M. Dantzler, St. Mathew's Parish South Carolina: Six: \our letter of lbs Gtii instant, makes an enquiry which I find repeated from several other quarters, to which I think it best to make a public reply. The enquiry is, wheth er, in esse no sales esu be made before the day named, in the ootton subscriptions, with out a sacrifice of the property, the sales art still to bs insisted ou. I answer, certainly not. The day named is upon the presumption that the blockade will be broken, and that sales of produce can be then made. I propose to submit another plan to provide for the con tingency of a continuance of the blockade, which win allow an indefinite retention of the crop. But it constitutes no part of either pUn to force the produce on the market at a sacrifice. With much respect, your ob’t ssrv’t, C, G. MKMM1NGER. Secretary of the Treasury.

Richmond, July 13. I should have mentioned, in my latter of yesterday, that the Troup Artillery, Captain Stanley, from Athens, Ga., aud the Cutts Artil lery, Captain Cutts, from Americus, are now encamped near this city. The former corps has bean attached to the 9th Alabama Regi ment, and has received orders to be reedy te leave iu four days. It is believed that they will go to Winchester. The Cutts Artillery have not yet been provided with guns or hors es, and it is impossible to say when they will leave, or for what point. Letters from Washington to the Baltimore “ Sou ** estimates the number of regiments that have reached that place at 80, and the nutn her that have crossed over to Alexandria and it* vicinity at 83. Another letter puts down the Federal forces on tbit aids of the Potomac at 62,000 men. This estimate, however, ia too large. These forces are under the immediate commend of Gen. McDowell. Gen. Pattersons command, at Martinsburg is being rapidly reinforced. He cannot have lees than 30,000 men at and near that place, and, in a few days, the number may reach 40,000. The large number of locomotives and ears which the invader has at his command, enables him to transport troops and munitions from point to point with great facility. Can’t severed railway companies in Georgia send on a portion of their locomoUve power and roll ing stock to Virginia? They could easily spare them during the summer, and early fall months until the cotton crop is ready for mar ket, or rather until the blockade shall b« rais ed. In a grain oeuntry like this, the roads art not to libortlly provided with thomoantef transposition as tbs roods ere in the ooltoo States. At an evidence of the temper of the North ern fanatics, I may mention that tho odilorsof the Busks soaniy (Ps.) “ Isntelligsaosr ” kave been indicted for libel, becanec they called one Henry Black a secessionist. The aforesaid Black, it searns, oonsldsrs it libelous to be des ign tied a Mend of Ike Booth.

Richmond, July 13,1801. I hare held this letter open till the Inst moment, hoping lo get something reliable in regard to the late unfortunate affair in the neighborhood of Laurel Hill, some account of which you hare already had by telegraph. At the moment I write, the town la the Tic tim (no other word ls*so applicable) of num berless rumors, some of which are of the most painful character. Which la true and which is (Mae, it were impossible^) decide. The doubt and pain and uneasiness every where felt, should, it seems to me, suggest to the War Department the propriety here after of allaying the public anxiety by pub- lisliing bulletins from time to time when a battle U (ought. I shall not attempt to give you even an outline of the msuy'rumors that are flying about the streets. You will find them at length in the morning papers. After com pariDg the one with the other, and sifting and winnowing them as best I can, where there U so much excitement and contradic tion, I present you the following statement, derived from a high functionary as, probably, the most reliable that can be had until fuller accounts come to baud. Gen. Garnett, as you arc aware, is in com mand of the Confederate forces beyond the mountains in the direction of Beverly. Hear ing of the approach of the vanguard of Mc Clellan's invading column, he despatched Col Heck.of this State (with what force I connot learn, tho’ probably a regiment,) to check hU advance. By some means Lieut. Col. Pegram and three companies, having been detached from Col. Ileck’s command, encountered an everwhelming force of the enemy estimated at 12,000 men. The last heard of Col Heck, he had about (100 men, with whom he was making his way back to Gen. Garnett's camp. Attached to the little band, under Lieut Col. Pegram, was a small battery which 9ccms to have done great ex- enution. He is represented to have held the enemy in check for some hours. IIU loss is variously stated, but the most reliable ac counts put it at 30 to 40 killed, and about TO wounded. How many prisoners were taken is yet unkuomn. Among those who were dangerously wounded, is Col. Pegram who was taken prisoner. All the Captains under his command, it U said, were killed, or woun ded and taken prisoners. Many, however, who were supposed to have been killed, cap tured or wounded, were coming in at lost accounts, and it is hoped our loss is not so heavy as it was first stated to be. Among the the officers who were killed, was Captain 8. T. Bayly, a promising young lawyer of this city and a brother of the 1st. congt essman from this State of that name. The loss of the enemy is estimated at 300 to 330. HU entire force in and about Phil* lippa U put down at 20,000. Ours is much less. It is said that every man at our little battery was killed except one named Lanier, who, after all his comrades had fallen, and thongh wounded himself, twice waded one of tho guns and fired it. Thus far the battle was a most glorious af- feir. The most painful part of the news re lates to the position of Gen. Garnett himself. A rumor'haa reached here through the same channel by which the above account ia de rived, that he had fallen back from Laurel Hill, and that by aome unexplained move ment, McClellan bad thrown a considerable force in his rear, and thus separated him from reinforcements that were on their way to hU headquarters. These consisted in part of one Georgia regiment under Col. John son, one VirginU regiment under Col. Scott, and an Alabama regiment, all of whom, at the date of the latest intelligence, were to gether about 40 miles beyond Staunton, and making all haste across the mountains. I put very little lalth in the report so far as it relates to Garnett’s position. The programm* of (Jen. 8colt U now be lieved to be thla: For McClellan to drive Garnett back, and either to occupy Staunton or join Patterson, who is to force Johnaton back from Winchester in the direction of Manassas. When this lias been done, a movement will be mode from Alexandria under the immediate command of General Scott, with a view to the occupation of Rich mond. It U said that Gen. Scott crossed the Potomac into VirginU to-day. Well, the Northern Coagren hae convened ; tho President hae sent in his massage; tho re port! of tho Cabinet officers have been pub- liehed, and the two Iloueoa art proceeding with alacrity to register the deereee of tho President, and to vote the men and money be hae called for. Thera woe a gaaeral disposi tion on the part of (he South to eweit the re aeeembling of the Frderal Congresa; for oar pes|<le wort alow le beliere that tbe North, without sufficient cauee and against ell rea- aooable proepect of auccesi, aeriously intend ed te attempt the eubjugalien of (be Confed erate Stetee. The proofs before us ehould re move all doubts, both as to the designs of the enemy and as to our own uuty. In one of my first letters to your journal, I took occasion to caution the public against the folly of underrating the strength and nour- age of our adversaries, and especially of judging the enemy and squaring our own conduct by each judgment. The justice or Injustice of tbe war should not be allowed to exercise the least Influence upon our own conduct. It U tbe part of wisdom to .lake the enemy at hU word. If he says he In tends to march 34t,M0 men down upon us, C crush out the rebellion by hU ewefwi ’ mis, prudence and duty Mike should dlc- m to u> the u«cee»ity of preparing to meet Ub 000,000 men, even though we might be llere tlmt be wae attempting to frighten o* by his threat* nod bluster. Tbe surest way to prevent hi* coming to, to shew him we are ready to meet him «ny time and at any place and In any number*. U U tbe opinion of many shrewd men hsjs, that the Woehlegton Government did not In tend in the outstt to attempt to reduce tho eooodod 8ioAoe by invasion. There ore (hoe# who beliere that such wit not, end le not now, Ike programme of Oen. Scott. Accord iog to their theory, tbe opinion prerelled be jond (he Potomac that a majority of the peo pie in the seceded Stales were derated lo the Union, and that en imposing military demon Btrxtion by (be Federal Government wxa all that wxe needed, lo enable thefts Union men to get oonlrol of (hose Stales and (the them back into tbe Union. If these men are right, iben the President nod hie Lieutenant Gen eral bare been guilty of tbe mistake against which your renders bare lsen cautioned ris : that of underrating the spirit and deter mination of those who are opposed to them Rut if such even wae the prevailing polioy at Washington, and it probably was at one lime, it has since been changed, at leaat so far as the Government is concerned Like Maobttb, they hare “slept in so far. Returning were as tedious as to go o’er.’ Congress had shown itself most subservient, and the unemployed artisans, laborers and factory hands have volunteered with alacrity; and tbe result is, a great war has been agreed upon as the only means to save the Republi can party and perpetuate its bold upon power. Let tbe people of the South then accept this war in all its huge proportions as a fact stern reality—which can be neither avoided nor postponed. Tbe enemy has tbe advantage of us in men, arms sod munitions; yet with energy and resolution on our part, there need be no uneasiness as to the reeult. Indeed, the adoption of a vigorous policy by our Govern meet, backed up by the hearts and purses of our people, may render tbe contest short, sharp aud successful. If we would stop tbe war, we must convince the “ calculating Van kee" that it won't pay ; und the surest way to do that is to whip him. You have doubtless beard of the capture of three Connecticut officers near Falls Church by two Virginia girls, the Misses Scott. Their mother—an aged and highly respectable lady —resides in a retired valley not far from the lines of the enemy, and the girls, who are in telligent and goud looking, on two different occasions, having encountered a sergeaut and corporal, decoyed them to the house and en- tertalued them vety agreeably, until notice could be sent to tho Confederates, who were soon on hand and arrested the gentlemen. In the same way, being ne*r the pickets of a Connecticut regiment, they effected to be frigbtei ed, aud asked a Captain to be so good as to see them to the house, where he, too, was soon bagged and seut off. Finding these heroic girls as captivating as tbe meu are dangerous, the President has had them ar rested and taken to Washington, to be held as hostages for the safe return of the officers. The 10th Georgia Regiment, Col. Anderson left thU afternoon for Winchester, iu fine spir. its aud health, and anxious to meet the ene- There are thirteen companies here from Georgia, portions of two other regiments, which will be orgauiied soon.

Our readers will find an account of this bold and dashing feat in our telegrams of tbe 3d in stant, and in the letter of our speoisl corres pondent in our issue of the 7th. We regret the delay of Captain Gordon’s communication in reaching us, but ils interest is not lost:] Emcampmsmt Lanostbr's Cross Roads, Va., ] 16 miles West of Alexandria. > July 1st, 1861 j Messrs. Editors: Aware of the eagerness with which everything from thia section is read by your subscribers, I have concluded to send you the encloeed report of a conflict be tween a small scouting party from my Battal ion and the Federal pickets. Having been separated from the regiment proper, and sta tioned with my battalion of 4 companies, snd two companies of Virginia cavalry, at thia place, we constituted a portion of the advance guard. I thought it prudent, therefore, to tend out a reconnoitcring party, to ascertain, if possible, the position of the enemy’s pickets, and to apprise us of any approach. The en closed report will give you eome idea of the result. We are frequently alarmed at night, and sleep on our arms; but I have too much confidence in the prudence of our neighbors over the way to sarionsly apprehend a nearer approach to our lines than their breastworks at Alexandria. Yours, Ac , J. B. G. To Major John B. Gordon, Commanding Forets at LangsUr't Cross Roads, Vo.: In accordance with yonr orders, I left our camp oa Friday morning, June 28th, at nine ’slock, A. M., ia command of a scouting par ty, <oDeleting of tea cavalry, five from the Goochland (Va )Trtopt, sad five from the Gov ernor’s Mounted Guards, (from Kiohmoad,) xadar Lieu Ue not Cham barley ne, of the latter oorpe; and forty eight Infantry—consisting of taw privates and a sergeant from Boesell Vol unteers, (Ala.) under Lieutenant Hooper; Move* and a sergaaat from the Autauga (Ala ) Rifles, under Lieut. Davie; tea fronKjHsnry Blues, under Lieut. Bell, and ten from the 44 Raccoon Roughs,” under Lieutenant War ren. Having heard that the enemy were in con siderable fore# at Aeoatineb Mills, we pro- needed down the Aeeatineh road to within 19 mi Ira of Poluek Church, where we received reliable information that none of the enemy were at Accatioch, or had been there fer a week. We then took the dircetion to Alexan dria, keeping ia the woede ee mueh os poesi ble. and following tba by-paths. We encamp ed for the night (Friday) within threa end a balf mile# of Alexandria, wbera we intended to remain until guides could be procured, and obtain, in the meantime, euy information of importance thet we could. Early on Saturday morniug we withdrew to the neighborhood of Burke’s Station, having beooms satisfied that the enemy had been informed of our wheree- boute by one Gillingham, who, with bis two sods, we have every reason to believe, act as spies for the enemy. While near Burke’s Station, we were joined by several scouts, who gave us definite in for motion of tbe location of several of the ene my's pickets, and offered to lead us by a per fectly safe route to their station. Considering the force under my command too large to op crate with effectuality, I sent back half of it, and tbe cavalry horses, under commend of Lieut. Hooper. We then advanced on tbe picket stationed at the junction of tbe telegraph and county roads, within one mile of Alexandria, snd three fourths of a mile from the battery 8huter’e hill. This picket we attacked be tween three and foar o’clock on Sunday morn iog, and killed eight of the enemy, according to the beet estimate we could make. We have since heard that five others were wounded and five missing. I regret to report tbe loss, on our side, of sergeant Haynes, of tbe Governor’s Guards, who was killed while bravely reconnoitoring tbe enemy’s pickets, for which dutv he had been detailed. None of our men were wound ed in tbe slightest degree. The fight lasted only about four or five minutes—the enemy having fired but one volley before they fled.— We retired as soon as the affair was over, and reached our camp at five o’clock on Sunday evening, without interruption. Not more than twenty-five shots were fired by our side, and twelve or fifteen by the enemy. Although the fight was a small one, it serv ed to show the coolness and deliberation of our men, which cannot be too highly praised. Every officer and man did his duty, and the pieces wore discharged with the greatest ac curacy. The success of the affair was, in i great measure, due to Mr. Robert Mason, whose coolness, gallantry, and accurate knowledge of the country, I should think, will combine to make his services invaluable to us. We attacked the pickets nearest Alexaudri first, intending to espture those most remote as we returned, but the alarm created in the city, by tbe firing, cuused us to retreat be fore accomplishing the object. Below is a plan of the roads where the af fair occurred. Respectfully, W. II. WEEMS, Cspt in Commandining.

The correspondent of the New York Tri bune gives the following unvarnished state-1 ment of the views of Hon. Geo. M. Dallas, lute United States Minister to the Couitot St. James, with regard to the policy of Eng land in reference to the Confederate States: Mr. Dallas convenes very unreservedly about the feeling of the British Ministry to ward* this Government. He believed the Ministry to be hostile to us, and that Lord John Bussell's early recognition of the reli els as belligerents was not a premature dec laration, to be repented of hereafter, hut a deliberate policy to be adhered to as far as it goes. lie is disponed to believe that the great arbiter is cotton—tlmt a* the stock on hand will keep the English mills employed until November, the Ministry will not open ly countenance th. rebellion until it is ascer tained whether the new crop is to he export ed or not It we crash the rebels and permit the new crop to be exported, all will he satisfactory to John Bull; if we fail to do so, and Joint Bull has to do without cotton, then some occasion w ill be found to get up a dif Acuity and force the blockade. If the war here continue* until November, Bull will keep tolerably quiet, making only an occa aional roaring. Hence, aa the time for ship ping the new crop approaches, the question of how England means to act will be more clearly answered. Mr. IMla* thinks that if the ministry were to he too openly for the rebellion now, Exeter Hall would turn them out forthwith, while, unless they made some show of favoring tbe Cotton Lords, they would do the same thing; so as it is for of fice, after all, that they are contending, their future policy will be just such as they may think the moat likely to insure to them a continuance of power.
