Wo comuitud the consideration of our render* the article of Modus Operand! In this morning's issue. Let hit suggestions be at oaoe acted on by Congress snd every State Legisla ture hi the South. And let os not stop at this point. Let ns not only make good to our eitl- aens thdlf thefts and house-burning*, &c ; but If enough property of any shape owned by North em people can be found among us—Railroad or bank stock, manufactures, merchandize, or farms—no matter what to pay the whole expen ses of the war, let U be so applied. Let every thing e resident of the North owns among ns be at once seised Let every State refuse to pay their bonds or the Interest thereon, which are due In the North, and let all our people, wheth er corporations or individuals, be prohibited from paying any dues or dividends to any such. In this way let us support the war and pay all Its expenses as fitr as possible. Bast Teaaeeeee—Its (JakiiMa Wa are permitted to take the following ex tracts from e letter written by a friend of the South, from Andy Johnson’s county: Hbxdbksoe's Mills, Green coounty, t Tennesse, July 16,1861. J Dear Friend: The excitement appeared to be dying away, until within the leet few day*. Our election comee off the 1st of August, and the two parties are making their arrengemente for it. It is generally believed that the Union party are making arrangements for having an East Tennesson Legislature, at least one of their candidates said so in his speech the other dey. They any they never will go into the Southern Confederacy, and still they aek the people to vote for them to go to the Legislature. Bat Governor Harris is sending troops here. There are some 2,000 at Brush Creek Camp Ground, to keep the Carter county fools straight, and 1 understand one regiment will be sta tioned here at Shilo; but I think it likely they will go to Stone Dam. I understand there will be 10,000 in this end of the State this week.— The Union meu are forming companies for the home guard. They have eoms two or three in this oounty. Rev. John P. Holsinger is one of their Captains. I understand he was ready to hew down the secessionists in the streets of Grseneville. We have organised two companies in this county for the South. You need not be sur prised if you hear of us fighting here, brother against brother, and father against son. This will be the case if Lincoln can gst his troops here; but I am in hopes that he cannot suc ceed in getting them here. But there are a good many of the Union men coming out for the South. I have been with the South all the time. In February last, I voted for a Convention, when but few stood with me. I thought then we had better caet our lot with the South; and I can’t help thinking if all the border Slave States had gone with thsSouth, ws would have had no war. The Unionists are attempting to make a separate State of East Tennessee, an*'. attach it to the Lincoln Government. Some that we did expect better thing* ef are for it. Indeed, there are a great many here who would rejoice to hear of Lincoln’s troops whipping back ths South, und making them submit. But this I don’t think they ever will see—no, never! My wife ie strong for the South. She says if Lincoln’s troops come here, she will go to Georgia, snd send me to help whip them back. My trust is io ths God of Heaven, for I be lieve our cause is a good one, and If it is, He will not forsake us; for •« the raoe is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong.'' Our crops are tolerbly good. • • • Correspondence. Dalton, Ga., July 15th, 1861.

C.»>t>lhi-»»iB,nllM tor Mr >n» •ri; IMn aad Der rayed by U, Vu clou* moreeau from thocolemoe ef that odorif- eroae, delectable sheet, tbe New York Tribune, of the tfiife instant: THE CONTRABAND CONTROVERSY. TV Ike Editor qf Tkt New Fork Tribune i Sir: The plan of disposing of tha contra band negroes which Mr. Redpsth proposes In your issue of to dey, is the only feasible see I have seen. To send thsm to Africa. India, or Central America, would be impolitic and too expensive. Any one acquainted with tha West India Islands oan see that they are beat adapted to the development of our emancipa ted u eg roe*. Hsvti being tbe only one now open to these emigrant*, and from ft* sire and fertility capable of aupporting an immense population, we should not hesitate to send them there. Butin tbe day that our Govern ment takes this step it must go further, and both acknowledge and guarantee tke Inde pendence of tbe Haytien Republio. Such a policy, steadily pursued, would soon kill out Spanish filibustering oa the other pert of the islaad. That tbe Administration will free all fugitives while the war lasts mar be taken for granted; any other oourse would disgrace aud stultify it. Mr. Red path's axperisnee, doubtless, makes him good authority as to cost of transporta tion and the opportunities for employment en landing; and I trust hi* views will receive such general approval as to insure the accep tance of his offer by our Government. EMANCIPATIONIST. New York, July 8,1801. This document explains fully the prime ob ject for the accomplishment of which the im pending struggle is forood upon tbe people of the Seceded States by the Yankees—those God fearing, law-abiding, Constltution-and-Union- reverencing patriots of the North, with whom woof the South heretofore associated and fra ternised, always, and even to our hurt, disad vantage, and deep disgrace. By contraband negroes, is meant the slaves belonging to the Southern people, which the Hessians of Lincoln may be lucky enough to steal from our plantations and run off, by un derground thoroughfares, into the lines of our enemies. We are assured “that the Adminis tration” (Lincoln) “will free all fugitives” (slaves) “while the war lasts.” There was no need of this “assurance,” because, though de nied by the Illinois blackguard, and bis filthy, lying, amalgaoiaton Secretary, Seward, yet ev ery intelligent man and woman in the South knows that, to crush out slavery in the Con federate States, is the main object to be ac complished by waging this unholy crusad* against us. “Any other” object “would dis grace and stultify” Lincoln and the hireling serfs now surrounding him, and succoring his vain attempts at coercion and subjugation ! It behooves Jeff Davis and the Congress, soon to asseble at Richmond, and the Governors and Legislatures of each of the Confederate States, to retaliate upon the enemy for these wanton aggressions upon our rights, foreshad owed by this correspondent of the Tribune.— Fortunately for our people, we have a perfect remedy for all the evils with which our soil and our people are threatened; and it only re mains for law makers promptly and energet ically to apply it for the protection and safety of our rights, at tke entire expense, too, of ths thieves who would deprive us of them. Tbe capitalists of New England, New York, and other abolition States, have many mill ions of dollars due them by the individual States composing the Confederate Government, by our Banks, Railroads, and other corpora tions; whilst neither individuals nor corpora tions in the Confederate States own much Northern Stock, or evidences of debt. The North owes us little or nothing, and we have nothing in the North to be confiscated by them. The Boston, New York, Philadelphia, and Baltimore, merchants bold notes and oth er evidences of debt agaiost merchants snd business men in the South for many millions. Many of the Railroads iu the Southare owned, in large part, by Yankee capital ists, who hold the stock, drawing heavy divi dends therefrom, taken from the purses of the hated slave drives, whom they now propose to rob and plunder of their property. Suppose Picayune Butler, for instance, who oommand* Lincoln’s houss-burners and cut throats at Fortress Monroe, should manage to kidnap and steal from a Virginia planter and master (as has already been done) a family of oegrore worth $10,000. Let the Governor of Virginia, by authority of the Legislature, be authorised, on proof of the lose of the negroes, and of their value, to be ascertained by the verdict of three of the neighbors, forthwith transfer to such Virginia planter end master a certificate, or bond, of the whole amount of the loss sustained by him, and confiscate enough of the bonds due by the State to her Northern creditors, to pay this certificate, or bond, to the planter and master whose negroes have thus been stolen from him. And so of every other kind and description of property, crops, Ac., that may be stolen, destroyed, or iqjured by the scurvey horde now invading her territory. Such a system of legislatiod as tbe one here proposed will do no detriment to the finances or interests of the Slate; whilst it will give to her patriotic inhabitants a sure guaranty of indemnification against any and all losses they may sustain by the hands of their oppressors. So 1st the authorities of ev ery other State in the Southern Confederacy do In reference to the property loat by her citi- ■ens, or injured, by the hands of our enemire. And if the State of Virginia and her people do not owe the Yankees enough to cover, by con fiscation, the value of the sieves and other property stolen from them, or l>st, or injured, then let her sister Confederate Btatee go to the relief of the sufferers in tbs Old Dominion, and confiscate Yankee debts, bonds and atoeks to an amount amply sufficient to meet and liqui date their (oases and compensate their inju- ries 1 If any balaooe is left, after satisfying all olaimaats in Georgia, lei it he applied to the elalms ef our Virginia brethren, whom their eva Stales may be unable to reimburse for tbefr loess* If the thieving Yankees steel oar aegroee, and destroy aad Injure tke prop erty of our people, let Yankee poekete, filled srith Soethera gold, filched from our hard earniagt, be mad# to tod the espeoso* in ev ery instance, to the last red eeat I have mentioned the injuries with which Virginia and her Confederate sisters are threat- eeed, end prepared whet, to my mind, at Uaai, if promptly and efficiently noted upon and tarried out, seems an ample remedy if our grievances, present and prospective- Let the blister be laid on tbe Ynakee hide U and bnavy.

Have you, Messrs. Editors, or any of your readers, a better remedy to offer? If so, I should be glad to know wbat it is, and tbs MODUS OPERANDI. A Camp Incident, Camp Walker, Decatur, Ga., 1 July 17th, 1861. J Editors Confederacy: An incident worth re lating occurred in the camp of the Upson Vol unteers on yesterday evening. Miss Gay, tbe authoress of “ Poems by a Georgia Lady,” with two other ladies, visited our oamp, and when they took their leave and were passing out of tbe camp, Miss Gay noticed one of tbe boys very awkwardly preparing his supper. She quietly offered her assistance, and made tbe dough for bread—observing that she was wil ling to do what she could for a soldier. It was all done with perfect modesty, and without any attempt at display. Nothing can be more encouraging to volunteers, then to see such spirit shown by tbe ladies. AN UrSON VOLUNTEER. Col. L. Q. C. Lamar, of Mississippi, was, at last accounts from Richmond, lying seriously ill at that place, his whole lett tide having been entirely paralysed. We see tbe above item going the rounds of the prees. Colonel Lamar passed through our city on Tbureday, with his family, on their way home from Virginia. He was much improved in health. [Correspondence of tbe Baltimore American.) A Conversation with Wm. L Yancey, Paris, June 18, 1861. 1 had, last evening, a conversation with Mr. Wm. L. Yancey, chief of the Southern Mission to Europe. Mr. Yancey informed me that be bad been in Paris leas than a week, and should return to-day tc London, where his oolleague, Mr. Mann, still remained, not yet having crossed tbe channel. Jndge Rost, of Louisiana, the third commissioner, has fixed his headquarters in Paris, and is exerting himself energetically to obtain a hearing from the Imperial Government. None of the En voys have succeeded in reaching the Empe ror’s presence, but Judge Rost avails himself of every opportunity to converse with jour nalisls and the publio functionaries, who may be readily approached, turning to the best ac count his perfect familiarity with tbe French language, whilst no member of the United States Legetioo oan speak that tongue. The disadvantage is, at all times, consider able, but at this particular moment it Is en ormous. 1 am well aware that very few American statesmen are acquainted with the language of European diplomacy, but a great error has been committed by the Government st Washington in not appointing sscretaries to Mr. Dsyton capable of acting as bis inter preters. An idea is prevalent in tbe United States that the minister has frequent inter-' views with the Emperor, who speaks English. Sinoe his arrival, Mr. Dayton has seen tfis Emperor once only, for the purpose of pre senting his credentials. All the business re lations of the Uuited States Envoy are with M. Tbouvenel, Minister of Foreign Affairs, who neither speaks nor understands Eoglisb. In my conversation with Mr. Yancey, that gentleman expressed his views unrestrainedly. I told him that roj object io seekiog the in- tsrvisw was to lay the result before the Amer ican people; (ball believed my aocount of his remarks, whatever they might be, would be widely read in the United States, snd I wished him to distinctly understand my in tentions before giving utterance to anything he might desire to withhold from publication. He said he had no secrets. The object of his mission was well known, snd be had every reason to anticipate complete success. En gland had not yet mads up her mind to recog nise the independence of the Southern Confed eracy, but six months hence, that is to say, be- tween the present time aod January 1, 1862, that recognition would be a fait accompli on the part of both Great Britain and Fracee, when the same lino of policy would be adopt ed without difficulty by all the other powers of Europe. The influence of Eogland would be para mount, and England must havo cotton. Man chester has a supply until the first of Novem ber, but it was hardly probable the British Government wowld wait until tbs last bala had been reaehed before determining upon the means of continuing tbe aupp y. If the block ade of Southern ports was maintained until the new erop should be ready for shipment, tbe blockade wonld then be forced by British cruisers, when It should be found that a rig orous embargo upon tho exportation of tbe staple through tbe Northern States had been ordered by the Confederate Government. Mr. Yancey had Information that the cotton orop would amount to three and a half mil lions ef bales, at tbe lowest estimate. These are (be main features of a long inter view, during whioh I became satisfied that Mr. Yancey’s reputation for eloqusoee is not exaggerated, aad I ean readily imagine with what fervor he must have addressed political assemblages during the Secession campaign. His manner Is mild, affable and exquisitely courteous, and the impression left upon me by him vat, that be possessed both great po litical talent aad fascinating aoeial qualities. Ue manifested ao hatred of tke North, bat 1 regretted (e find la him ths prejudice of many Southern man oa the subject of Northers courage. He admitted that tho North does not lack brave men, but thought that there wore more in ike South. I told him that possibly erenow the eomba taals might have learned to appreciate a valor eommea to oar whole couniry, and confined to no seetioo. Upon (he issue of that con flict depends tho fate of Mr. Yaotoy’s mission —not upon eolloo.
