Telegraphic.
Our neighbor, the “ Intelligencer,” is ma
king quite a display about its telegraphic
news. It says it publishes “ all the telegraph
ic news “ the very latest telegraphic news
that those who seek the “latest neics,” will be
sure to find it in its columns, &c.
This is the boast—the promise : let us see
how it is fulfilled.
Night before last, among the foreign news
received by us was the following :
“ An Imperial decree by the Emperor Na
poleon, opens the principal ports of France to
the importation of cotton and woolen yarns
from England and Belgium.”
The “ Intelligencer’s” dispatch from Paris
on this subject, was a little later than ours, no
doubt, as will be seen by reading it. It is as
follows :
“ The imperial decree opens the principal
French ports of importance of cotton and
wool yarns from England and Belgium.”
Here is the value of getting the very latest
news. We congratulate the people of this
city who are subscribers to the “ Intelligen
cer.’’ But for that journal’s facilities for get
ting the very latest news, they would not have
received the news about that “imperial” de
cree opening the “principal French ports of
importance," exactly in the shape in which it
was furnished by our neighbor, whois always
late in furnishing coirect news.
W. W. Clark.
We observe that Colonel Clark, of Newton
county, is a candidate for Congress in the Gth
District. We have known him well for twenty
years. He is a native of Augusta, Qa., and
completed his education at theLaboringSchool
near Covington, the foundation upon which
was built that most, excellent seat of learning,
Emory College. He studiedlaw in 1840-41 with
Floyd & V illiamson, of Covington, and when
admitted to the bar, he settled in that place.
Without any pecuniary resources or the ad
vantage of wealthy patrons, he has, by his
own untiring energy and correct business hab
its, made a handsome fortune, and won the
confidence and patronage of all who want
business attended to with ability and fidelity.
He is emphatically a working man, who, if
placed on a committee in Congress, would ex
amine thoroughly the last point in the case
wiih a sound, discerning judgment and pre
sent it understandingly.
fie hope to see in our new Congress more
business men, and fewer whose only qualifi
cation is talking.
The Express Company.
Those who have been so active in trying to
make the country believe this company was
dangerous to the South, and that its stock was
owned by our enemies, should now come for
ward and report the facts to Mr. Nisbet the
“ Confiscation Agent” at Macon. Let them
show their faith by their works. Who will
shrink ?
The Vigilance Committee at Columbus—an
illegal, irresponsible’organization,usurping all
the powers it pretends to exercise took upon
itself to investigate the affair of the company.
In doing so the following confession was ex
torted from them.
Vigilance Committee Room, |
Columbus, Ga., Oct. 7. j
Mr. S. 11. Hill, Agent Southern
Express Company Columbus :
Sir: At a meeting of the Vigilance Com
mittee, held this day, your report in answer
to a call for information from this body was
submitted, and read. The same was received
as perfectly satisfactory. Your Comoany be
ing composed of Southern gentlemen*, is wor
thy of the countenance and support of our peo
ple. Yours, very respectfully,
JOHN W. KING,

SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY
REPORT OF GRAND JURY.
We, the Grand Jury, chosen and sworn for
the second week of Octobei Term of Fulton
Superior Court, beg leave to make the follow
ing presentments:
We heartily concur in the recommendation
of the Grand Jury of the first week, in relat ion
to the appointment of a Treasurer and Com
missioners, for the receipt and disbursement
of the fund raised by county tax, for the re
lief of the families of those now in the service
of the country.
We have deemed it proper to depart from
the usual mode of examining the books of the
different county officers, in order to introduce
a system by which their condition and accu
racy may av all times be discovered ; for it is
impracticable through committees, in the short
space allowed them, to obtain such informa
tion as can be practically relied upon. We
therefore recommend the appointment of such
person, or persons, as are known to be com
petent, whose duty it shall be to examine all
the books of the county officers, and report
the result of their investigations to the Infe
rior Court.
Regarding this recommendation as of the
utmost importance to the people of the county,
we would urge upon the Inferior Court the
necessity of carrying it out at an early day,
in order that the examinations may be made
immediately preceding each term of the Su
perior Court.
We are happy to report the sum of twenty
six hundred and seventy-four dollars paid by
the Tax Receiver into the hands of the county
Treasurer since the report of the Grand Jury
of the first week. We furthermore learn that
tax executions, to the amount of three thou
sand dollars, are in the hands of the Sheriff
and Bailiff of the county. Why’ these execu
tions have been thus long suspended, your
Grand Jury is unable to say ; but having been
informed that the first Tuesday in next month
is set apart as a day of settlement between the
Receiver, Treasurer and the Inferior Court,
we earnestly refer this matter to the careful
consideration of said honorable body
In order to improve on the present mode of
keeping the books of the county Treasurer,
we would recommend the adoption of a simi
lar book to the one used by the city Treasnr
er.
Having visited the county Jail, we are pre
pared to say that the different prison rooms
are clean and in good order, but the condition
of the yard does not reflect the same credit on
the management.
In this connection, we would call the atten
tion of the proper authorities to a certain id
iot negro now suffered to remain in the jail
yard at the expense of the county, and con
trary to the provisions of law.
From the best information obtained, we are
enabled to say that the management of the
Poor House reflects the utmost credit on its
present keeper, Mr. Jesse M. Cook.
As silver change is impossible to be bad,
and our community becoming flooded with a
circulating medium commonly denominated
“Shin Plasters,” issued in other parts of the
country, and as such circulating medium is
• indispensable, we recommend that the Legis
lature authorize the chartered Banking Insti
tutions of Atlanta, to issue such small bills,
redeemable in current bank notes at the bank
ing house where issued. This will save to the
people the great inconvenience of sending
change bills abroad for redemption.
Whilst we have reason to be grateful to a
bountiful Providence for an abundant yield of
the necessaries of life, we are unwilling that
the selfishness of & degraded nature should,
with impunity, seize and appropriate to itself
these inestimable blessings, at the expense of
the suffering poor. This should not be. We
invoke the restraining power of the Legisla
ture in behalf of poverty and destitution, and
trust that measures will be adopted, at the
earliest practicable moment, io confine the
power of the capitalists within its legitimate
sphere of action, and check the wild, insatiable
spirit of speculation so widely diffused through
out the land.
The evils arising from external pressure are
already insufferable, and when these evils are
increased and augmented by accumulating
pressure from which an enlightened and Chris
tian people would escape.
la taking leave of the Court, we return our
thanks to His Honor, Judge Bull, for his uni
form kindness to this body ; also, to N. J.
Hammond, Solicitor General, for his polite at
tention.

Why the Confederates Fell Hack from
Washington.
A letter to the Philadelphia North Ameri
can explains the reason as follows :
It was determined on Friday, at a council
of war held at the headquarters of General
Scott, that an advance should be made, and
within four hours afterwards the enemy pre
pared for flight. This may be a coincidence,
but it is more likely that information was
carried directly to the rebel camp. Rebel
spies abound here still, and they constantly
manage ingeniously to send over to the ene
my all the information they as ingeniously
manage to obtain. It is impossible to pre
vent th s ; at all events, it is not now of great
consequence, as nothing can be said which
will not serve to impress the enemy with the
madness of attempting to capture Washing
ton, or of making any serious resistance to
the immense army of McClellan
Col. Gartrell.
Camp 7th Ga. Regiment, |
Fairfax, Va., Oct. Bth, 18G1. J
Messrs. Editors; Reports have reached the
Regiment from Atlanta and other points in
Georgia, detracting in a high degree from the
manliness, courage and dignity of Col. Gar
trell. To those who have been under his
command, and who know well what has been
his course, and are willing to give justice to
the assailed, a« well as praise to the merito
rious, these reports have come with great,
mortification and surprise. Col. Gartreiliays
no claim to superior military excellence—
never entered the army for military honors
or reward ; but. like thousands of noble born
and noble bred Southerners, has left a home
of ease, honor and happiness for the dangers,
hardships and privations of the camp and
field—for the defense of a country which
ought to be dearer to the patriot than any
country on earth.
As Col. Gartrell announced shortly after
his arrival in Virginia, he has looked to the
duties devolving upon those under his com
mand, and exercised a vigilant discipline in
caring for the execution of those duties, whe
ther by officer or private; but as he announc
ed further, he has shown by his actions that
he regards his men, not as inferiors, to be
driven by a capricious will, but fellow citizens
of the same glorious Confederacy, deserving
from him, as they have received, kind, pa
rental watchfulness, in the heavy marches
made preceding the battle of Manassas, Col.
Gartrell was sympathetic and watchful, pro
viding, to the extent of his power, relief for
the meanest private. Often, when seeing a
a wearied soldier ready to faint and fall by
the way, he would dismount from bis horse
and walk, giving the wearied man his seat.
The wants of the soldier have ever received
his special attention. Nc complaint brought
by his men in want has ever been refused.
The sick have been an object of bis special
care. He has sent provisions from his own
table to men he had never known, only by
their wants which had reached his ears. No
commander was ever more popular or beloved
universally. He is unpopular, it is true,
with some of his staff and other officers of
commission ; but only for the reason, that
with the former he has been strict in making
them procure provisions sufficient and suita
ble for his men, and render aid to the sick ;
and with the latter only for the reason that,
he has been vigilant tn suppressing a spirit
of oppression, which too often manifests it
self in men that have been rased to a com
mand to which head and heart have not ele
vated them. Men educated to be soldiers,
taught from their youth when the spirit
bounds high, and daring to regard danger as
lovely, and death by the bullet as sweet, are
expected on the field to show to the world
deeds of dashing bravery ; but men brought
up in the walks of peaceful and private life,
are not expected to conduct themselves in
this way. But Col Gartrell; in the battle,
when shells were flying, and hissing, and
bursting all the day around bis regiment,
was cool, self possessed at the bead of his
soldiers ; and when the 7th Georgia was or
dered to the charge, and stood on the field
struggling, and falling, and bleeding, he was
iti our midst, cheering us on to drive the in
vader back. And when the invader had been
driven back, but bad left many of Georgia’s
noble sons dead and wounded, the wants of
his men, now greater than ever, called for
and received greater attention from their
commander.
The above is not written in a spirit of eul
ogy. but in justice to one who merits the sol
dier’s highest esteem. G. W. P.
It Private Company G.
Atlanta. Georgia, Get. 19, 1861.
Jfeaara. Editors: From a strong sense of
duty, I beg leave to call the attention of the
voters of the Bth Congressional District to a
few of the claims that Col. L. J. Gartrell has
to their support in the coming election. Aside
from his previous political career, being with
out a blemish, his patriotic zeal in the present
struggle of the South for liberty, should at
once place him far above all other competitors
for the office. As his eligibility to the office
has been settled, beyond dispute, by wiser
heads than mine, I will at once pass on and
give a few of the many brave and self-sacrfi
cing deeds he has performed during the pres
ent campaign.
Being an humble member of the Regiment
of which he is commander, I have had a chance
to know what has been his course through the
entire contest. Almost every week, shim the"
time we arrived at Harper’s Ferry until the
memorable battle of 21st July, we were com
pelled to make a forced march, and it was in
these trying times that he proved himself the
gallant soldier and humane commander. He
was ever at his post of duty, never shirking
any danger or responsibility, ever foremost in
the ranks encouraging his men to endure their
privations by precept, and example ; and on
every march giving up his horse to some tired
soldier and walking himself for miles. And
when we were face to face with the enemy, in
deadly conflict, on Manassas Plains, he was
all that a brave and noble soldier should have
been. I heard Gen. Beauregard tell him to
take a certain position with his regiment and
hold it until reinforcements came to his relief,
which he thought would be in forty minutes;
(but they never came,) and his gallant reply
was it be held as long as there is a man
left in the Seventh Georgia Regiment. And
truthfully and bravely did he carry cut his
p.edge, as past records will attest: and ever
was seen Col. Gartrell at the head of his Reg
iment. And when he was so much stunned
by the bursting of a bomb shell that he was
unable to continue on horseback, he still kept
on foot wfM his men until the flying foe was
lost in the distance. When told by one of his
men that his son was mortally wounded and
he wanted him (the Colonel) to assist in get-
ting him in the shade of a tree close by, hie
reply was, “ Do the best you can with him, 1
cannot leave my post.” And this is but a true
counterpart of his bearing throughout. And
when a man who has perilled his life in the
service of his country, and is still defending
her rights, desires an office, and that office is
in the gift of the people he is defending, I
think justice and gratitude should, by accla
mation, bestow it. upon him in preference to
one who stays at home settled upon his lea,
picking motes out of the eyes of others while
beams ot prejudice are obscuring his own
mental vision lam no office seeker, nor do
I ever expect to bo , nor do I ever expect any
favors at Col Gartrell’s hand ; but I cannot
be a “ looker on in Venice” and keep silent,
when I was an eye-witness to the truth of the
conduct, and see this truth constantly distort
ed for political purposes.
It EYE-WITNESS.
Yankee Brags and Lies.
Long since, we knew the Yankees could
beat all the world bragging and lying; but
the extent to which they could outstrip all
creation, we never fully realized till since this
war began.
All our readers recollect the brilliant suc
cess of the 3d Georgia regiment—Col. Ranse
Wright’s—in the late Chickamacomack expe
diticn. That Indiana regiment ran inconti
nently before our men could land. They left
their tents, guns and ammunition—their din
ners spread out and uneaten, cards scattered
where they were playing old sledge- their
love letters half finished. Never before was
a run so cowardly and disgraceful. Nor did
they stop till they got to Hatteras lulet.
As our men returned and embarked at the
place of landing, the Susquehanna and Mon
ticello came up and fired at our men and our
mosquito fleet about 500 shots, doing not a
particle of damage whatever. These are the
facts.
On Friday, we published the account of
it served up for Yankee palates by the New
York “ Times,” and to-day we give (be “Her
aid’s ” version.
The Government is surely on its last legs—
tottering to ruin—or such desperate lying
would not be resorted to, to bolster it up a
little longer:

They had completely surrounded the Indi
ana Regiment at Chicamacomico, when news
was sent io the Monticello, lying off the light,
Lieut. Braine, of the United States Navy,
commander, who ordered the Monticello un
der way. Being of light draught, she cross
ed the bar and commenced shelling the reb
els.
The slaughter is said io be terrific. They
fell by hundreds. Those not wounded, fled
like so many sheep. The shrieks of the
wounded were distinctly heard from the shore.
They were completely entrapped, having but
a narrow spit of laud upon which they were
situated.
The steamer shelled them for four miles.—
The dead and wounded were strewn upon the
beach in great profusion. They evidently
caught a Tartar.
It is reported that, their loss must have
reached between two and three hundred kill
ed and wounded.
The first shell from the Monticello killed
Col. Bartow, of the Georgia regiment. At our
first shell, which fell apparently in their
midst, they rolled up their flag and scattered,
moving rapidly up the beach to the North
ward. We followed them, firing rapidly from
three guns, driving them up in a clump of
woods, in which they took refuge, and abreast
of which their steamers lay.
Two boats filled with men were struck by
our shells and destroyed.
Too much praise cannot be accorded to
Lieut. Braine for this brilliant achievement,
which has caused great exultation at Fortress
Monroe.
The New York “ Times ” also says :
“ It is reported that their loss must have
reached between 2 and 300 killed and wound
ed.
During the engagement, a member of the
Indiana regiment, who had been taken pris
oner, managed to break the rope with which
he was tied, and escaped. He took to the
surf, and was picked up by a boat from the
Monticello. He reports that the first shell
from her killed Col. Bartow, of the Georgia
regiment, and that the havoc was frightful.—
He also reports that when he escaped, he
killed aConfederate Captain with his revolver.
Upon the withdrawal of the Confederates,
the Monticello and Susquebana, and the land
forces, returned to Hatteras Inlet.
