OUR COAST IS INVADED. THERE arc a great many married men in and about Atlanta who cannot enlist for the war. but who, under the present exigen cies of the case, are willing to go in the de fense of our Coast. To all such persons I would say. that I have just received authority from the President of the Confederate States to raise a CAVALRY COMPANY, I XCLt SIVStV FOR THE CQAFT DKFRNSK. fins < >tnpany will be eontinued in service as long a* the necessity exists, but under no con sideration for a longer term than 13 month*, unless desired by the Company.

Persons who have subscribed, or who wish to subscribe, to the Georgia Relief Hospital Association, are requested to hand thoir funds, or subscription, to Hon. Wm. Ez zard, Rev. J. L. Rogers, and Gen. Jno. H. Rice, or either of them—these gentlemen being the Committee appointed to receive contributions in aid of said Association. e Pop-Coru. Gen. John 11. Rice has presented us with an ear of Brazilian Pop Corn. It is a very deep red, well-filled ear. The General gathered 2G ears from the same stalk—all sound, full-grown and well-filled. Suicide. Rev. E. Y. Reese, of Baltimore, the talented editor of the “ Methodist Protestant,” com mitted suicide on Saturday, the 21st inst., by cutting his throat from ear to ear with a ra zor. He lately lost his wife, to whom he was' most tenderly attached, and he was greatly cast down and mentally afflicted on account of the sad state of the country. The Balti more papers attribute his suicide to mental aberration, caused by the public distress and his own afflictions of mind. + ♦- Our City Subscribers. The P. O. Department has given instruc tions to charge 20 cents, per month, postage, on daily papers dropped into the Postoffice for delivery. This order will go into effect, in this city, on the Ist of October. All our subscribers, now taking the paper at the Postoffice, who are in reach of our car rier, “John Wesley,” and want him to leave their papers at their residences, or who want to call for their papers at our office, will give us notice before Monday night. Kentucky. There are about 5,000 Southern troops en camped on Green River, near Munfordsville— our pickets extending eight miles beyond that point. Gen. Rosseau has about 5,000 of his raga muffin Ky. (?) troops between Rolling Fork and Louisville. About half of his “Home Guards” refused to serve under him and went home. It is said he telegraphed to the Governor of Indiana for more troops, who responded that he must look to Kentucky, which had resolved by 50,000 majority to remain in the Union. The Southern cause is rapidly gaining upon the Kentucky heart, and the patriotic sons of that State are cordially rallying to the stan 1- ard of the chivalrous Buckner. Recruiting for Lincoln is an exceedingly slow business. A skirmish occurred at Mud River last Mon day (running into Green River, and divides Muhlenburg and Butler counties) in which the Southerners were victorious. They cap tured some arms and took some prisoners, who were carried to Bowling Green. The Bridge over Bacon Creek was burned by the Southerners on last Tuesday. On Wednesday 20,000 Kentuckians, armed and equipped, joined the Southerners at Mun fordsville, from Nelson, Hardin, Bullett, Ma rion and Hart counties. Gen. Buckner enjoys the implicit confi dence of the Southern Rights men of Ken tucky, whose numbers are daily and rapidly increasing. Gen. Jeff. Thompson was at Memphis on Thursday night last. He there received a dispatch from Columbus, Ky., that a large portion of the troops at Cairo were leaving for Washington. McClellan must be in a strait. A gentleman arrived at Memphis the same day from Shelby Co., Ky., and reported that Gov. Magoffin and Humphrey Marshall were at the head of 2,000 men in Owen county— the nucleus, it is believed, of an army of 20,- 000 Kentuckians. We glean these facts from our Nashville and Memphis exchanges. We shall endeavor to keep our readers posted about the move ments in Kentucky, which now are of the greatest importance. ♦♦ Atlanta, Sept. 24, 1801. Hon. Wm. Ezzard.J. L. Rogers, and John 11. Rice, Esq*., Committee : Gents:—l have the pleasure to acknowledge a note from you, inviting the Amateurs to give a Concert for the benefit of the “ Georgia Hos pital.” I am happy to see, by this, that you endorse and appreciate our efforts to aid the cause. Nothing would afford us more pleas ure to appear before our Atlanta fellow-citi zens in such a cause as that of the Georgia Hos pital. Our motto has ever been, “In for the war, for the Relief of Soldiers’ Wives and Chil dren,” and when there was no immediate call for relief, we have tendered our services for other purposes. But at this particular time there is an ur gent and imperative call from the soldiers’ families. The Relief Association, formed by gentlemen some time ago, has stopped in con sequence of the Inferior Court having levied ths Relief Tax, and the result is, that no one i* attending to that duty which they so no bly and xealously performed. The demands for relief assail us at home and abroad, and why is it * The proposed tax is amply sufficient, and why it is not collect ed and applied to this pressing duty, I cannot tell. One thing ia certain, the delay, or want of system somewhere, is having a dreadful ef fect, and mothers and wives look with terror upon that cause which has taken their protec tors from them. This is strong language, but it is true. Therefore, gentlemen, for the present, we muat decline giving a Concert for the “Hos pital.” We soon, however, trust to have the pleasure of doing «o. We must assist the fa milies at home, and if no one will attend to it, “the Amateurs" will perform for the funds and then visit the homes of the needy and distribute them. Believing, gentlemen, you will receive the excuse for the present as worthy, I have the honor to remain Yours, truly, WM. H. BARNES. Manager Atlanta Amateurs. D A BBLS LARD OIL just received on ccn uv airnment and for sale by June I BUTLER A PETERA. The News in Brief. « Novelty.—The young ladies of Montgom ery are wearing aprons made like the Confed erate Flag. A Prize—Auguste Belmont, who went to England as Lincoln’s loan agent, has $350,000 worth of tobacco in his name in a warehouse in Richmond. It will probably be pleaded be fore the Court of Sequestration that, the to bacco belongs to European neutrals. Spider Bite.—A negro man in Saulisbury, North Carolina, was recently bitten by a spi der, and was only preserved from a fatal result by enormous doses of whisky, hartshorn and morphine. Under the circumstances it is im possible to tell which saved him. Accident.—The Warrington correspondent of the Montgomery Advertiser, writing on the 24th September, says : A serious accident occurred in Pensacola last night, which may result in the death of one of the parties. The sentinel on duty at the door of the Bedell House was talking and joking with one of his comrades for sometime, when the latter, in a playful manner, took the sentinel’s gun, and with the muzzle depressed from a level, exclaimed, “Charge!” when the gun was discharged, the ball entering near the groin, and passed through, making a dan gerous and painful wound. I learn the woun ded man has a wife and family in Griffin, Ga. I could not learn the name of either of the parties. The comrade was nearly crazy that ha bad nearly killed bis friend, but the woun ded man exculpated him from any design in shooting him. When will people learn that it is dangerous to “ fool” with fire arms ? P. S. —I learn that the man has since died from the effects of the wound. A Case for Indemnity.—A merchant in Memphis, who had his life insured in Cincin nati for $9,000, lately died. His widow re ceived the money al the office in Cincinnati, but on her return was waylayed by Lincoln officials and every cent—her only means'of support—taken from her. “Why is it. husband, that whenever wc send for a pound of tea or coffee to the grocer, it falls an ounce short ?” “Oh, it’s just, a weigh he has.” A High Private. —Ex-Gov’nor Wm. Aiken, of South Carolina, a gentleman with several millions of dollars, has reported himself for ac tive duty in the Calhoun Guards.— Richmond Enquirer. That’s nothing. We know several reported for duty who didn’t have a red cent, and left their wives and children at home to take their chances. Which are entitled to the more cred it for shouldering their muskets? — NashviUe Banner. The Ellsworth Fire Zouaves (Lincoln's Pet Lambs) arc to be mustered out of service Their insubordination has rendered them unfit for service. One hundred thousand blankets are under stood to be now at the disposal of the Govern ment, from purchase abroad, for distribution among <be army. impromptu of a sobjectless editor. “Two leaders a day,” when not an exchange From mail or express we can draw, Reminds me of I’har’oh’s insisting on brick, Notwithstanding the failure of straw. “ Two leaders a day,” is all very well, So far as mere pen-work’s computed, But wine, be it ever so choice, lacks taste, When by natar ’tis over distilled. EPIGRAM. McDowell was busy all Saturday night, Expanding his wings to the left and the right, Till by Sunday ensuing, before it was light, He was ready to start on a deuce of a flight. North Carolina Legislature.—This body adjourned on Monday the 23d instant. Johnston and Beauregard.—The Tuske gee Baptist propounds the following interrog atories : Why is the name of Beauregard in all the papers more renowned than that of Johnston ? as though Beauregard had slain his tens of thousands and Johnston only his thousands. Un Manassas Plains what did one more than the other? Who has shown more strategetic tact in his Harper’s Ferry end Winchester ma nicuvering than Johnston ? They are equals, and should be so treated in public allusion to them. One has the start in the popular mind, that’s all. Capt. John Frederick Cooper, second son of Hon. Mark A. Cooper, who was wounded at the battle of Manassas Plains, and who died on the Bth September from the effects of the wound, was promoted to Major of tbe gallant Eighth on tbe day before his death. Gen. E. Kirby Smith and his bride arrived at Charleston on Friday morning on their way to Florida. The ancient records and relics of the Hamp ton Masonic Lodge were very precious to the craft in Virginia. While the Hessians were laying their vandal bands upon everything in thoir way, Col. Townsend took a few of his command and secured these old records.— They are to be returned to Virginia. —I The Gate-City Guards I Want ton able-bodied recruits. Uniform* ■ furnished.

This will be easily dune —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 we have not done, and hope we shall not be compelled to do. We are doing tbe 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.

Harris, in obe dience to a requisition from General A. S. Johnston, has issued a proclamation calling for 30,000 additional troops from Tennessee. New Orleans, Sept. 26.—The Prize ship Marshal was sold at auction to day by order of the Court for $36,000 cash. Measures will be taken to stop the oyster business, as many supposed spies are supply ing the fleet with daily papers and perhaps valuable information. The defences of the city are progressing with great rapidity. The French officers returned to their corvette last evening. They brought no mail and took none. From the Memphis Avalanche, 27th inst. Startling News from Kentucky. From a gentleman who has just arrived from Shelby county, Kentucky, we learn that a few days since, an order was sent to Franfort for the arre.t of Gov. Magoffin, by the Feder ate ; but he had made good his escape to Ow en. county, the banner secession county of the State, where 2,000 armed Confederates have rallied to him, under the command of Col. Humphrey Marshall, who was Colonel of a Kentucky regiments in the Mexican war, and highly distinguished for his bravery. We are, also, informed that the whole coun try is in a blaza of excitement, and are rush ing by thousands to the standard of the Gov ernor. The State guard, having in their pos session the guns and cannon of the State, will mostly join Magoffin’s force, as they are chief ly located in that portion of tbe State. We anticipate, therefore, that the nucleus of an army in Northern Kentucky will be pretty well provided with both small arms and ar tillery. Orders of arrest have been issued for more than 200 of the first citizens of Louisville many of whom have been already Bastiled.— A perfect reign of terror has been established, and the infamous Legislature seconds the Lin coln invaders in all their atrocities. Col. McKee, editor of the Louisville Courier, reported arrested, escaped to Bowling Green. The traitor Andy Johnson is reported ar rested by the Confederates in Kentucy- He will be sent to Tennessee for safe keeping. Bowling Green, Sept. 26.—Dr 1 Johnson, the Senator from Paducah, left Frankfort Friday night and made his way to this place under great difficulties. He states that several mem bers of the legislature had been arrested. He also states that Gov. Magoffin is not al lowed to go outside the city limits. Dr. Johnson says the feeling at Frankfort is almost unanimous in favor of the South, and that the Federate are committing all sorts of depredations in that portion of the State. They have about five regiments at and near Muldrough’s Hill and about three thousand Home Guards at and Near Camp Dick Robin eon. Advices from Green River state that Gen. Anderson telegraphed to Gov. Dennison, of Ohio, te send all companies or parts of com panies or parts of companies, however small. Col. Preston is said to be in Morgan county, calling on Southern men no’th of Kentucky river to join his camp. PHILANDER J. PEASE,LVCIF.NK B.
