SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. # outhetn <Conf rdrracri URO W. ADAIR HENRY SMITH, KIMtnM rROMIRIOM. ATLANTA., GEOR»IA: FRIDAY, AUGUST 1>, 1801. (iuveruora Elected. Gov. Harris of Tennessee, Is re elected for u third term, by a majority fur larger than any Governor ever before received, lie was a seces sionist when the State decided, by a majority of (10,000, to remain In tbe Union. His large ma jority now, shows how thoroughly the people ot Tennessee arc at this time committed, heart nnd sonl to the cause of the Conftedernte States. His opponent was a good man—able, popular and tme to the South, but his claims were urg ed in East Tennessee, and lie was voted for there by the miserable Union malcontents who still have large majorities in a few counties in that section. They did this because he was original- )y a Union man nnd not n secessionist, as Gov. Harris was. This was fatal to him, aud proper ly so perhaps—-notwithstanding he had no sym pathy with them whatever. In Alabama, they had a glorious old-fashion ed scrub race for Governor. Watts, Shorter, Bibb, Rice, Chilton and any number of others were voted for. It seems tlrnt there was but one caudUlate iu the field—Judge Shorter, and the figures so far, indicate that ho is defeated—tho’ we know not how it will result when all the re turns are in. The returns we have seen, place Mr. Watts considerably ahead—though he re peatedly during the canvass, stated that he was not a candidate for the office. There was no Convention to nominate a can didate. Tills was as it should be, and we would gladly hope that another nominating convention will never he held In the Confederate States. Tennessee Traitors Coming to the End of tlielr Row. The Nashville papers of the 7th iust., which reached us yesterday, say that Thos. A. R. Nelson, cue of the Lincoln ringleaders of East Tennessee was arrested in Lae County, Va., on the 4th inst. He was first taken to Cumber land Gap—tbe point where Tennessee, Ken tucky aud Virginia all join, and where Gen. Zollicoffer’s forces are now stationed. From there he was taken to Abingdon, Va., no doubt with a view to sending him on to Rich mond to be tried for treason, of which he is most abundantly guilty. He, with his compeers, Maynard, Brownlow, Bridges A Co., have been suffered to preach treason and organise conventions against the integrity of our Government long enough. A lew days ago, tbe Permanent Constitution of the Confederate States was adopted by the people of Tennessee by an overwhelming ma jority. At the same time members to the Con federate Congress were elected. Nelson was a candidate for Lincoln's Congress and was voted for as such by the malcontents in a few of the couulies. So were Bridges and Maynard. They, we hear, have left the State, and it is supposed are trying to work their way to Washington, to get seats in Congress, where thero are a few vacancies, and pretty high bids are made for some persons who will con sent to occupy them. It is supposed that Nel son was on his way to Washington, when be was arrested. While Tennessee was not a member of our Confederacy, and while she had adopted only the Provisional Constitution, these traitors wero let alone, under the hope that they would cease their treasonable conduct when they saw the State was overwhelmingly resolved, come what would, to adhere to the South ; but now the Permanent Constitution has been adopted by such a majority as Tennessee never before gave ou any question, and in all proba bility never will again. At the same election Nelson and his coadjutors in treachery have been candidates for Lincoln's Congress; and sinco that election Nelson, as President of a Convention of treason-plotters, has called to gether these enemies of tbe South, to meet iu Kingston a few weeks hence, to devise ways and means to overthrow the authority of the State and CuufederatoGovernments. Tbe cup of endurance is full. Henceforth, treason must meet with death, which we hops will be promptly meted out to every man in the Con federacy who seeks tbe overthrow of our Gov ernment. Where We May Expect to be Attacked. Kentucky bus had a lair vote and has decided to remain in the Union. Henceforth her neu trality amounts to uothing. The Lincoln Gov ernment has played a deep and successful game there. Long ago arms were sent Into that State by the Government at Washington, and distrib uted all over it to organized bodies of men cull ed “ Home Guards." They were LUicoluites iu disguise—their pretended neutrality being actual Abolitionism. It is now Iwastcd that 10,000 of iliem arc organized and have arms iu their hands; and now, that the Slate has shown itself to have a majority of Unionists in It, they arc to make one grand effort, and drive the secessionists out of Kentucky—and Tennessee. Wc this morning publish a portion of a speech by that truitor, Andy Johustou, in the United Slates Senate, demanding that arms be sent to East Tennessee. Kentucky neutrality is no long er to he respected since it is oscerUined, by a fair test, that a minority of her people are against the South; but an army is to he marched through that State into East Tennessee, from which point operations against us are to be made. This we should judge to be a part of the pro gramme of Llucolu and Scott. Since writing the foregoing, we see It stated by the Knoxville Register of the 30th July, that arms and munitions of war, intended for the East Tennessee Lineolultes, have already been sent Into Kentucky, and some of them have been received by those for whom they were In tended. It Is further stated that companies of these Unionists, under the udvice of Nelson, Maynard, Johnsou, Brownlow At Co., have been organized ail over East Tennessee, into whose hands these guns will he placed as soon ss they eon be brought Into the State. Some of these companies in the most rabid section of the mal contents, boast Dial they are under pay of Lin coln, and have sworn to support his Govern ment. Our Government Is looking out for this mat ter. General Zolllcoffer has command of that department. A braver and truer man does not exist; but we are free to express our fears that ! MgM* be supplied with an Inadequate force and thtt it will be a second edition of our Western Virginia campaign. Heretofore we have depended on Kentucky neutrality to k««r the vandals of Ate Lincoln from the Northern border of Tennessee. Tills rood—dfways slender - is now'broken. We can depend on It no mod.

HOWARD, OF TDK BCIIOLf! OUARDS. Mac on, Georgia, August 0, 1861. Messrs Editors: There Is so little news in our place, that 1 fear that this letter will be uninteresting. ludeed, nothing but war news satisfies the world in these days—everything else is flat, no matter bow interesting it might have been ia ordinary timet. Several of our cititeos who visited tbs Seat of War, to look after the wounded and dead, have returned, bringing with them trophies of tbe late battle at Manassas Among these, is a Fire Zouave's eap, with a hole through it just above the briin. Also, the spear head of a flag staff, captured, with the staff, by youog Barnes, of this oity ; a jacket of one of tbe gunners of Sherman’s Battery, Ac , &c. The account brought by these gentlemen does not differ materially from those already published iu regard to the scenes in and around the bat tle field. They describe the condition of tbe wounded and dead of the enemy as horrible beyond description. The melauoholy and re volting task of burying tbe dead had been finished-the enemy having detailed but thirty men to do the work of burying as many as four thousand dead. Of course, most of the labor fell upon the Confederates—five hundred of whom were detailed for this purpose.— What little inducement is held out for vol unteers at tbe North ! Poor pay—or no pay —bard fare, and not even the hope of a de cent burial! They were promised a farm in tbe Old Dominion under Greely’e plan ; but, alas ! it is with much difficulty they arc allowed tbe usual allotment of mortals—a peaceful resting place, of six by four ! How deluded! Our friend H., who has just returned from Richmond, says he conversed with several of the prisouers—nearly all of whom are still for fight. One officer told him that they did not regard this defeat, that they could soon repair this damage. When reminded of their losses in men, arms, wagens, &c., he remark ed that these could all be replaced iu a few weeks. He said he was fighting, not for Black Republicanism, but for the Government—for the glorious Uniou. Alas, for the glory of the Union; it has departed. The presence of Lincoln and bis miserable advisers in tho sa ored HaII of Liberty has driven away the beautiful goddess, and she will never preside over any Government on this continent again, we prediot, until the independence of the Southern Confederacy is acknowledged. I notice, in our city papers, a call for a pub lic meeting to-morrow, to take into consider ation tbe propriety of instructing the City Council to have an oath of allegiance admin istered to all tbe residents of Macon. While I am in favor of everything that looks to the protection of our citizens from the secret or publio acts of untrue and disloyal citizens among us, l cannot see the propriety of this move. So far as loyal persons are concern ed, there is no necessity for an oath ; and there are many who, like Caesar's wife, are above suspicion, while the rascally abolition ist in our midst, who would harm us if he could, would not hesitate to take tbe oath, to protect him in his hellish purpose, if for no other reason. But, if our citizens think it best, I am content to try it. I should judge, from tbe number of troops passing through our city from Alabama aud South Western Georgia, that ample reinforce ments are being thrown into Virginia, and that, in the next battle, the Hessians will meet with another oatastropbe. Let ue con tinually pray to God for the same power which was given our troops at Manassas; that we may continue to frail them out until there shall not be a trace or track ef such vauJals upon an inch of Southern soil. In looking over the list of killed aud wound ed, uo name among all the deaths affected me more than that of iny old friend, Capt. C. W. Howard, of Meriwether. He was a noble fel low. 1 saw him, aud conversed with him on the eve of hie departure for Virgiuia. He was as you may remember, a* minister, of tbe Methodist denomination, and was placed, by the last Conference, on a circuit in Talbot county. Ho attended faithfully, as a Chris tian warrior, to his clerical duties, until the war broke out, wheu the fires of patrioti-m burned so powerfully iu his breast that he felt that he ought to lend hie help to aid his be loved South in her struggles against Northern fanaticism—the more especially, as he had several years experience, In the early part of hie life, in the regular army. He left biecir cult, which was supplied by another without much difficulty, and raised a company in his native county, composed of his friends and brethren—all of whom had the utmost confi deuce io hie military skill and bravery. He wii in Virginia, his company in Bartow’s reg ioieot, Johnson’s division. He led them in tbe thickest of the fight at Manassas— our arms prevailed, but the gallant Howard fell. A truer man never fell ia the battle field. Knowing him, at I did, I feel that this tribute is due to bit memory. But (hie letter is long enough. JOHANNES MQu John L. Whitman, one of the oldest citizens of Athene, Oeorgia, died a few days »«o HT Albemarle eounty, Virginia, has fur nished twenty-one companies of volunteers to the war. Hurrah for this noble eld oounty. For tbe gouthern (’< To the Authors of the Mouth. New (bat we roust rely on oureelvee for our eoheol books, and literature geoerelly, it be eomee a matter of interest to kaow who art our Southern authors, and what books we have printed end in MS. To meet I hie diffloult/, I propose to publish a oomplele catalogue of all Southern hooks, with a descriptive title, the uame and residence of the author, with such other information ae will be desirable in such p catalogue. To accomplish this object, I respectfully re quest all authors who have books, printed or io manuscript, whether miscellaneous, relig ioni, or school books, le send me, at onco, the title of their books, (heir full name, their address, and the terms on which their books oau be bought, wholesale aud retail, and where these books can be bad. As soon as the necessary material can bo procured, the catalogue will be published. It will afford authors menus of bringing their books into notice, and at the same time, give the public an opportunity of knowing what Southern authors we have, and how their books can be had. Authois sending their names, Ac., will on close one dollar to assist in defraying the ex penses of publication—for which they will re ceive the value in catalogues when printed.— If the work ie not published, the money will be refunded. Address J W. BURKE, Book Agent, Macon, Ga. %*Will Southern newspaper* give this cir oular a place in their columns. Such as do, and will send a oopy of their paper contain ing it, shall receive the catalogue, besides the thanks of the public genet ally. Andy Johnson wants to come home, aud begs hard at Lincoln to, send a Bodj guard along to protect him. Andy lately made a speech in the Senate at Washington, in which he said : Since I left home, having only one way to leave the State through two or three passes coming out through Cumberland Gap, I have been advised that they have even sent their ar mies to blockade these passes in tbe moun tains, as they ray, to prevent Johnson from returning with arms and munitions to place in the hands of the people to vindicate tbei rights, repel invasion, nnd put down domestic insurrection and rebellion. Yes, sir, there they eland io arms euvirouing a population of three hundred and twenty-five thousand loy al, brave and patriotic, and unsubdued peo ple ; but yet powerlees, and not in a con dition to vindicate their rights. Hence 1 come to the Government, and I do not ask it as a siuppliant, but 1 demand it as a constitution al right, that you give us protection, give us arms and munitions; and if they cannot be got there in any other way, to take them there with an invading army, aud deliver the peo pie from the oppression to which they are now subjected. We claim to be the State. The other divisions may have seceded and gon off; and if this Government will stand by and permit those portions of the State to go off, and not enforce the laws aud protect the loyal citizens there, we cannot help it ; but we still claim to be the Sta e, ami if two«thirdi have fallen off, or have been Mink by au earth quake, it does not change our relation to this Government. If the Government will let them go, and not give U9 protection tho fault is not ours ; but if you will give us proteotion we intend to stand as part of this Confederacy, holding to the flag that was borne by Wash- iug.on through a seven years struggle for In dependence aud separation from the mother country. We demaud it according to law ; we demand it upon the guarantees of the Con stitution. You are bound to guaranty to us a Republican form of Government, and we ask it us a Constitutional right. We do not ask you to interfere as a party, as your feeliug9 or prejudices may be one way or another in referenoe to the parlies of tbe oountry ; but wc ask you to interfere as a Government ac cording to the Constitution. Of course we want your sympathy, and your regard, at d your respect; but we ask your interterenco on Constitutional grounds. ******* Though sometimes I canuot see my way clear in matters of this kind, as in matters of religion, when my facts give out, when my reason fails me, l draw largely upon my faith. My faith is strong, based upon the eternal principles of right, that a thing so monstrously wrong as this rebellion is, can not triuoipb. Can ws submit to it? Can bleeding justice submit to it ? Is the Senate, are the American people, prepared to give up the graves of Washington and Jackson, to be encircled and governed and controlled by a combination of traitors and rebels ? I say let the battle go on—it is freedom’s cause—uutil the stars and stripes (God bless them) shall again be unfurled upon every cross road, and from every house lop throughout the Confed eracy, North and South. Let the Uuion be reinstated; let tbe law be enforced; let the Constitutiou be supreme. If the Congress of (he United States were to give up the tombs of Washington and Jack- sou, we should havs rising up iu our midst another I’eter the Hermit, in a much more righteous cause—for ours is true, while his was a delusion—who would appeal to the American people and to the tombs of Wash ington and Jackson, in the possession of those wbo are worse than the iuiiJel and tbs Turk who held the Holy ^Sepulchre. I believe the American people would start of their own accord, when appealed to, to redeem the graves of Washington, and Jackson, and Jefferson, and all the other patriots who are lyiog with in the limits of the Southern Confederacy.— I do not believj they would stop the march, until again the n»( of ibis Union would be placed over the graves of those distinguish ed men. There will be an uprising. Do not talk .about Republicans uow ; do not talk about Democrats now; do not talk aboutWbigs now ; talk about your country aud the Con stitution and tbe Union. Save that ; pre serve the integrity of the Government ; once more place it erect amoog the nations of tbe earth; and then if we waul to divide about questions that may arise iu our midst, we have a Government to divide in. From the Richmond DU| fetch. An Admirable Reply. We are indebted to a gallant officer of the army for the following correspondence, ensu* ing on an underhanded and miserable attempt of Gen. Cameron, U. 8. States Secretary of War, Io obtain the body of his brother, and at the same lima ignore the fact that it ie a belligerent nation " by whom the North bee been defeated. Gen. Beauregard's reply It a model, and confirms our Impression, la read ing bis lettsr accepting a sword from the New Orleans ladies, that he oan write as well as he can fight.

My solicitude iu this matter ie no impales of private character.— Tbe rigid rules established in Washington with referenoe Jo flags of truce prevent me from carrying out my wlehvt without proceed ing as 1 am now doing.

Iu addition to the gratification of performing a sacred duty, 1 would be highly delighted to meet in your camp many of my most valued friends.

Thr|General declines giving an informal per mit to any one residing beyond his advanced lines for anypurposewbicb may be accomplish ed by’tbose formal proceedings known to, aud practiced by, civilzed belligerent uatioue. By no act of his will he lower the dignity of the Confederate Slates as a uatiou by permitting (bat to be done indirectly which tbe usages of oivilised warfare accomplish directly. Thearbitrary and unusual course adopted in such oases as you refer to by the United States Government, will be the guide of the Gener al's conduct in return.

For myselt I have long ceased to wear jew elry, and save.* chain, a birthday gift of i beloved and honored father, whom I had the misfortune to lose in infancy, and a diamond, the parting present of my husband, I have nothing of value; but theee tokens eo precious ol iny heart, I will gladly bestow.

Youra very respectfully. Mrs. WM. COX. RKrLV. [The spirit which animates the patriotic la dies of tbe South ie well illustrated by tbe foiegoing generous proposition. When they have freely surrendered to the dangers and privations of war those who are dearest to them on earth—husbands, eons aud brothers more dearly prized than gold or diantoud, no stronger assurance is needed that they an ready to make every sacrifice upon freedom’! altar. As yet the necessities of tho South do not require that the ladies should divest them selves of their jewelry, the sacred tokens of friendship and love.

According to reliable statistics furnished us, we conclude there ie fully nx month*’ supply ou hand for the Slates of Louisiana, Missis sippi, Teuuessee, Texas aud Arkansas, casting aside tbe quantity or stocks held iu the inte rior. The quantity or stock in this market to day is from actual count— 186.000 lacks Liverpool salt. 300.000 bushels of packing salt. The quantity ol sack saitou baud ie one third ot the eulire importation for tbe year. Aa for packing salt, there waz a large quanti ty held over trom last year. However, there is sufficient salt iu the Southern Confederacy to last for twelve months. In tho meantime, it is asked, " What ia the Suit Company of Louisiana doing?" Some eighteen months since the prospects for an abundant supply of salt from tbe vats io the parish of Plaque mine were most favorable. The great gate last year destroyed everything. That sail iu abundance can be manufactured within tbe limits of Louisiana, there ia not a doubt True we could import salt from Turks' Island, Liv erpool, 8L Ubea and the Cape de Verds cheap er than we can manufacture it ourselves. But if foreign Governments should choose to rec ognise the paper blockade of Liucoln, Seward k Co , aud throw tbe great South upon its own undeveloped resources, we shall De indepen dent of all foreign couulries. There are salt work* in Arkansas which oau ba worked to advantage. Thirty years ago there waa great strife in entering public lands iu this Bute, known to have all the requirements for ma king the strongest kind of salt. It was more profitable to raise cotton than to distill salt water; consequently, the manufacturing of •alt in Arkansas waa suspended by yearly ‘‘“ipeuing foreign salt. ilt was made before and, we believe, du ring the Revolution, near Charleston, and if necessary, can be made here again. * Go?.
