A MONUMENT TO BARTOW. As a mark of the high estimation in which we hold the memory of the brave Col. Bartow, who so nobly perished while gloriously de fending the cause of the Southern Confede racy, it is proposed by one of his numerous friends, that a suitable monument be erected to the lamented hero. For this laudable purpose, then, let the mo thers, daughters and sisters of Georgia, in whose defense he fell, subscribe each the small sum of one dollar. It is further proposed that Dr. J. B. Walker, of Augusta, Mr. Jones Gres ham, of Macon, Mr. Wm. Markham, of At lanta, Mr. John Stoddart, of Savannah, and Hon. G. E. Thomas, of Columbus, be appoint ed to receive the subscriptions. If the above named gentlemen will kindly aid the cause in this way, it is requested that they testify their willingness through the newspapers.— Let the women of Georgia come forward promptly in this noble undertaking. We sug gest, also, that the different Volunteer Asso ciations of ladies take the matter in hand, and that in every community where none such exist, they may be early formed. We may thus speedily raise a monument befitting the i gallant dead. It is a small contribution. We can and will do it. The Editors of Georgia will confer a favor on every woman of Geor gia by publishing this and frequently calling attention to it. For the present, any commu nications on the subject may be addressed to “ LUCILE,” Berzelia, Georgia. The Southern Express. An anonymous writer, in the late Montgom ery (Ala.) Confederation, and in the Co lumbus (Ga.) Sun, who, doubtless, desires to get up an opposition company to the Express, or has failed in an attempt to do so, seems to be greatly exercised upon the subject. He says the President of the Company, H. B. Plant, was born at the North, and that the wagons and horses, used by Company, are the same heretofore used by Adams’ Express. Now, as a man has no choice as to the place of his birth, we are not quite sure that he is to blame on that account. So that he is an honest, trustworthy, good, patriotic citizen, (and Mr. Plant, who has lived in this city for many years, is, we believe all this,) we think the sin of being born North of Mason and Dixon’s line, might well be pardoned. Many of our good Southern men and brave soldiers were born there; and as to the wagons and horses, we only wish we had enough of them to haul the army supplies and hospital stores to every needy company in the Confederacy. We have a great many wagons, horses, and arms, that formerly belonged to the enemy, and which were taken in the battle of Manas sas Plains, but we believe no one complains of that. Is the writer of these diatribes against the Southern Express Company a Southerner him self ? If so, why is he endeavoring to cut us off from one of the most eeffiient means of supplying our troopa ? Perhaps it may be to gratify some private pique that he inflicts his articles upon the public ; certainly he might be better employed in fighting the battles of of his country than in thus attacking those who are furnishing facilities for conveying materials, &c„ necessary for its defence.— He appears to be painfully afflicted with ca coethet icribendi, and when he recovers, if ev er, from that disease, we venture to suggest that be may find to his mortification, that “He only pays the pain he suffers, Clipping, tike a pair of snuffers, Lights that will but burn the brighter For this temporary blighter.” Constitulionalitt, Aug. 22. Our School WILL bo reopened on the FIRST MONDAY IN SEPTEMBER next (1861) in the base ment room of Central Presbyterian Church. With many thanks to our former patrons and friends for support and confidence, we be speak their continued efforts in behalf of our enterprise. Misses A. E. HAMILTON, aug. 10-dlm. M. L. BROWN.
