Daily and Weekly “Confederacy”
for sale at all times, at five cents per copy.
The Southern Confederacy Office,
Has a reliable special letter and telegraphic
correspondent at Manassas Junction—the great
attractive field of battle at present. We have
also engaged reliable correspondents from vari
ous points in Virginia. Everybody wants to
hear the news, and all important dispatches or
news items received by us, will be promptly
placed on the Confederacy bulletin.
Quite a number of names on our daily list and
a few on the weekly, will be erased this week,
unless the subscriptions are renewed. We in
variably stop sending the paper at the termina
tion of the time for which it is paid.
KT Our terms for the Daily are $5 per annum
or 50 cents per month—the cheapest Daily in
the South, that gives the same amount of read
ing matter.
ST In all cases, subscribers to the Daily
“ Confederacy” will be charged at the rate of
50 cehts per month for any length of time less
than one year.
The Weekly is a very large sheet, full of the
choicest reading matter. The cheapest way to
get the news is to subscribe for the Confeder
acy.
——
Advertising.
The Confederacy has more than three times
the circulation of any paper in Georgia, North
of Augusta, and. is ful If equal to that of any
paper in the State. We do not make this state
ment either as a boast, or in order to convey
any erroneous impression, we say it candidly
—knowing what we say—and because it is
true.
A Proposition.
We want each and every one of our numer
ous subscribers to consider him or herself our
agent to procure one more subscriber at least
—we care not how many more. Let each pro
cure and send us one. This will be easily
done—will cost each one but little trouble, and
be of great benefit to us, in the aggregate.
Advertising patronage is almost nominal,
and we have no Government or other special
patronage to sustain us. Our enterprise is
standing on its own merits, and we are spend
ing every dollar of our profits to increase the
usefulness and interest of our paper. Other
papers in Georgia have raised their price and
reduced their size to suit the hard times. This
wo have not done, and hope we shall not be
compelled to do. We are doing the best we
can for our readers, and, therefore, we the
more confidently appeal to them to assist us
by extending the circulation of the “Confed
eracy. Let our circulation be doubled. This
will greatly enhance our facilities for improv
ing our paper.
.. —,— —.
Red Mark.
We shall send each subscriber whose term
expires during this month, a back number of
our paper with a M and the day on which
their subscription expires, marked on the
margin, with a red pencil. A prompt remit
tance will insure the continuance of the pa
per—otherwise the names will be erased from
our books.

Just Sa.
We have received two letters from friends
in Decatur, calling our attention to the fact,
that a large proportion of Capt. Glenn's com
pany—the Stephen's Rides—was from DeKalb
instead of Fulton County. This is true, but
it did not occur to us, when we were stating
the number of companies that had gone from
this county, in our issue of the 4th inst
Capt. Glenu, and a part of the men compo
sing his company are from this city. Our la
dies made up their uniforms, and our citizens
were quite liberal in their contributions to
wards the outfit of this company. These facts
made u« feel like the company was from our
own county, and hence, we put it down so,
without due reflection. We hope our DeKalb
County friends will excuse the error. It was
not iateatK>ual, fur we have no desire to de
prive our neighboring county of any of her
laurels, and we here »*y that Dekalb County
is entitled to the credit of having furnished a
large majority of the men in that company.

For Governor.
We ask special attention to the words of wis
dom contained in the communication of our
correspondent P , in another column. He
is one of the most eminent men in Georgia,
whose great talents, useful labors, public servi
ces and noble qualities of head and heart, have
made him one of the most beloved of our pub
lic men for many years past. All this would be at
once acknowledged by every reader, were we at
liberty to mention his name. Read his commu
nication and be instructed.
The Entertainment,
At the Athenseum on Friday night was at
tended by a large and appreciative audience.
Dr. Goutourier’a Shakespearian readings are
magnificent, and then Prof. Reeves’ singing—
0, hunna, hush.' We can’t tell you anything
about it. Those who have not attended this
entertainment, have missed a feast of reason
and a flow of soul, which they will not soon
again have an opportunity to enjoy.
They go from here to Newnan and La-
Grange.
W ar Books.
See McPherson’s new card. He’s got’em all.
You can’t call for a thing, but what its thar.—
Mac’s got everything every way, any how.—
Call round and look. You never seen the like.
Baby-Wakers.
Sixteen 22-pounders passed through our city
on Friday night. They were from— somewhere,
and were going— somewhere else ! The Hes
sians will find out where they are about the
time they attack the Southern coast.
The Waverly Confederates.
This “ bully ’’ company of men, Capt. R. M.
Powell, from Walker county, Texas, passed
through here yesterday morning for Virginia.
They were equipped with the spoils taken from
the United States army at the capture of Fort
Bliss. They marched on foot 270 miles from
their “ far west” home, before reaching any
means of public conveyance. Let Hessians
stand afar off wheu they come about. If not,
they’ll be made to lie low.
Not So.
The rumor, generally current on our streets
yesterday, of the death of our excellent friend
Lieut Z. A. Rice, of the Fulton Dragoons, we
are happy to say is erroneous. Our citizens
cannot be too cautious in giving currency to
rumors of this character. There is already
enough of affliction and grief in the land,
without adding thereto additional pangs by
the inconsiderate circulation of mere rumors.
.—+++
Modest and Liberal.
The President of the “ Soldiers’ Relief So
ciety," of Atlanta, acknowledges the receipt
of an elegant Watch from some unknown do
nor. It is to be appropriated to the Hospital
Fund. This modest manner of tendering the
gift speaks volumes for the noble and Chris
tian heart which prompted it to lend a help
ing hand to such a holy cause. May the
prayers of the sick and afflicted attend the
footsteps of this unknown friend.

Au Opportunity for Companies.
We are informed that the Regiment camped
at Griffin, under orders from the War Depart
ment to Hon. J. W. H. Underwood and Col.
Henry Cleaveland, needs two full companies
to complete its organization; that orders were
mailed from the War Department over twen
ty days ago, but were fifteen days on the way,
during which time several companies engaged
to go in that Regiment became impatient at
the delay and anxious to be off. Under these
circumstances, permission was given them to
go in other Regiments that offered a more
speedy opportunity to get to the war.
Col. Underwood's Regiment will be organ
ized as toon as two companies more offer, and
will soon be near the dashing ot the guns.—

FOR THE “ SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY."
Louisville, Sep. 6.—Gov. Magoffin’s mes
sage on Federal relations is mostly retrospect
ive ; showing neutrality to have been thrice
ratified at the ballot box, and that his own
course of refusing men to Lincoln, and his ef
forts to keep belligerents off Kentucky soil,
have met with nearly unanimous approval of
Kentuckians. He says :
“ And now, addressing myself to the repre
sentatives of the people of Kentucky. I pro
test, in their name, and in the name of Consti
tutional Liberty, and in the presence of Heav
en and Earth, against all and every of the
President’s usurpations, his unconstitutional
and illegal acts; and I protest, furthermore,
against the prosecution of a war, professedly,
for the object of restoring the Government and
the Union—an object utterly impossible of at
tainment by such insane means as a war of
coercion ; and I protest, moreover, against Ken
tucky being made the camping ground, or the
pathway for the movement of forces by either
belligerent; and I recommend earnestly to the
General Assembly the prompt passage of reso
lutions, requiring both belligerents to keep off
our soil, and to respect, in good faith, the neu
trality which the people of Kentucky, with
unexampled unanimity, desire to preserve.
Richmond, Sept. 6.—“ To the Press of Geor
gia : At a meeting of a few Georgians and
members of Congress from Georgia, held here
a few weeks since, an organization was com
menced, for establishing a Georgia hospital in
the city of Richmond, and an Executive Com
mittee appointed. Their action was taken in
ignorance of the extent of the organization
and object of the Georgia Relief and Hospital
Association. Hon. E. Starnes, of Augusta, who
is Chairman of both Committees, and Mr. Hen
ry Moore, also of Augusta, having visited this
city, and a full consultation with such of the
former meeting here as remained in this city,
having been had, it has been deemed best,
with fall concurrence of the Committee ap
pointed here, to dispense with the former or
ganization, and to place the whole matter un
der the charge of the Georgia State Associa
ciation.
To relieve all apprehensions on the subject,
as Chairman ot the former meeting here, I
make this publication, and request all persons
desiring to aid in the laudable object, aimed
at by both, to make their contributions to the
proper officers of the Georgia Relief and Hos
pital Association.
[Signed] HOWELL COBB,
Chairman.
I heartily concur in this action.

OBITUARY.
DUNN —Died, on the 2d inst., Horace
Mitchell, only son of W. E. and M. T. Dunn,
aged 1 year, 4 months and 12 days.
Farewell, sweet child, forever rest
Midst blissful regions fair and bright,
Where dwell the spirits of the blest,
In Heaven’s own pure, celestial light.
O’er thy young grave shall fond ones weep,
And drop the mournful, silent tear,
Wrung from affection, pure and deep,
Vainly in each succeeding year.
Then, fare thee well—a parent’s sigh
Cannot revoke thy mortal doom ;
Thy mould’ring corse alone must lie
Within the dark and silent tomb.
The Wright Legion.
This is a new military organization authorized
by the Confederate Government. It is named
in honor of Hon. Augustus R. Wright, of Floyd
county," who will, in all probability, be called to
the command. The Legion will consist of ten
companies, viz: two of Flying Artillery, with
four pieces each; four of Infantry, with four
pieces each, in addition to the usual arms; and
four of Lancers, to be armed with Lee’s Spring
Sabre Lance and ten-inch Repeaters.
Companies wishing to form a part of this Le
gion will report immediately, at this place, to
Capt. G. W. Lee or L. J. Parr, giving names of
Companies, officers and the number of rank and
file. As soon as these gentlemen are notified of
the willingness of a sufficient number of Com
panies to enter the Legion, they will be ordered
into Camp, near this city, for equipment and
instruction. All the expenses of transportation
and subsistance, from the time of leaving home,
will be defrayed by the Confederate Govern
ment. It is thought that the Legion will be or.
dered to our own sea-coast.
A Card.
To the Voters of Cobb, Fulton and Clay
ton Counties : As the time for the election of
members to the State Legislature approaches,
and there seems to be no one enough interest
ed in the subject to bring it positively before
the public—nearly all eyes being attracted to
wards the battlefield—and being physically un
able to enter upon the active duties of the sol
dier, and being further unwilling to allow the
great events of the present struggle to pass by
without taking some humble part therein, I
have concluded that the demands of patriotism
would, in some degree, be subserved by volun
teering my services for the humbler duties of
civil life, and, therefore, place my name before
you as a candidate for Senator of the district
composed of the counties of Cobb, Fulton and
Clayton. GREEN B. HAYGOOD.
