To Correspondents. A few words to those who write articles which they wish to appear io our columns : If you write anything of local ifterest only, let it be very short ; we cannot spare the space in our paper and pay our printers for setting up a long article, when we know that only a few of our readers will take any interest in it. When you write anything of general inter est, make it as short as possible. Strike out all amplifications. Don’t bang on and hang on, and spin it out and spin it out, but gather up your burning thoughts into a focus, and give the strong points iu a few words. Don’t send us a long article. If you are going to become offended, if we decline to publish your communication, don’t send it to us. We don’t want to offend you, and we had rather take the chances of miss- ! ing a good article than of giving offense. Don’t ask us to return your communication if it is rejected. Save the five cent piece you would enclose for us to prepay postage on re turning it. If you have any doubt about our publishing it, keep a copy. We positively have not time to return articles we decline to publish. We receive a large number of attempts at j>oetry. Nine-tenths of these we decline.— ! Very few persons who attempt to write poetry can be convinced that their productions are sorry. Let all your first attempts at poetry be submitted io some one of well-known scholarship and literary attainments, before ! offering them to the press. ts -<-• Red Mark Again. We are sending out to all our daily subscri bers, whose time expires before the Ist No vember a back number of our paper, with a cross mark, and the day on which their sub scription terminate’, entered on the margin of the paper with a red pencil. Let all who wish to continue renew in time. We cannot send out our paper without the money in advance. Advertising is almost nominal, and we live and are able to publish our paper almost from subscriptions alone. And let all who can, send us $5 in advance for a year’s subscription. It will cost them less and be of very great advantage to us.— The time and labor of re entering monthly subscriptions is a daily tax on us, while some other portion of our business is suffering for want of our attention. -. + - * ♦ Bacon Sides and Hams, For sale by ROBT.

Wells, Esq., of this city lately died at Manassas.— His remains are now en route for home. The Concert. On Friday evening was another grand dis play of the original genius of the Amateurs. The vocal music, as well as the instrumental, evinced a degree of perfection on the part of the performers, which is seldom attained. Barnes’ latest edition of “ Root hog or die” took the place of “Twinkling Stars” in the programme, and bright, indeed, must be the stars which would not be eclipsed by it. Its connection with interesting events in the war, rendered it one of the most interesting per formances of the evening. The unique and most amusing performance of “Nash” was none the worse for not ap pearlng in the printed programme. Those who W'J did not laugh from center to circuihfl|Mfc^ are DOt ’ u a condition to en joy jhinga of the world. But there was another performance, not put down iu the programme, and. which was the only dis agreeable occurrence connected with the affair. It was the rude behavior of a number SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY. of boys near the stage who annoyed (he per formers and everybody near them.

It is now fully ascertained that the next session of the Georgia ('onfereuce will be held in this city instead of Savannah. The ses siou of the Conference will begin on Wednes day, 27th of November.

It will be well for citizens to look out for these notes, as an attempt will be made to circulate them in this community.— Richmond Dispatch. We find the foregoing in the Richmond Dis patch.

Last night just about dark a row occurred in Alabama Street, near the Market House, growing out of a light, between Geo. Black stock and Deputy Marshal Branham. Blackstock, it appears, was one of the day police, and was yesterday discharged from the service for some misdemeanor. Meeting with Branham last night, he charged him with some improper interference in causing his re moval, which Rranham denied with an oath; whereupon, Blackstock knocked him down and beat him very severely. Blackstock is a strong, athletic man, and Branham is a weak ly cripple. A very great crowd soon gathered about, and the excitement was high for a time. Knives pistols and guns were freely exhibittd. Much praise is due policeman James Ennis for the prompt arrest ami lodgment in the calaboose a number of those who were most noisy and turbulent. Anniversary. Col. Turner Ashby's gallant repulse of the Lineolnites at Harper’s Ferry was on the an niversary of John Brown’s raid upon that place two years ago—the 16th October- a fit celebration of the anniversary.

Gorgas, Chief of the Ordnance Bureau, C. S. Army, in to-day’s paper. ». How the Planter* are to Obtain Relief The editor of the New Orleans Crescent, in his issue of that paper of the 22d instant, says he has been furnished with the following com munication from the highest source—a gentle man of financial skill, and one of the largest planters in the Southern Confederacy, and one of the most experienced men of the age : Your banks might afford great relief to both sugar and cotton planters,"by loaning to cot ton planters ten dollars a bale on cotton. This would enable them to purchase sugar and mo lasses as a substitute for pork, and thus re lieve the sugar planters. It might, I think, be safely done in some such form as this. Let the planter make his note, say thus : I promise to pay on demand to the Presi dent, Directors, etc., of the Bank of , with interest at 8 ‘Pct. per annum from date, and payable out of the proceeds of the first sales of my cotton crop. z\nd let the commission merchant annex : I, or we, pledge ourselves to pay the above note out of the proceeds of the first sales of the cotton crop of , consigned to us. This war is not likely to end in one year, and there cannot be a doubt that another one hundred millions of treasury notes, and per haps several hundred millions, will be issued. Tbe banks must be crowded with them, and certainly a good planter’s note is as good as treasury note, more especially if the one bears B'pct. interest, and the other no interest at all. Some such scheme will have to be adopted to enable the planter to keep tbe people from starving and to assist the Government in the collection of her taxes, for without these col lections the war cannot be prosecuted. Thus far much has been done in furnishing supplies to the soldiers by private donations; but there must soon be au end of this, for those who had cash funds, have now nearly expended them, and little now can be expect ed from private bounty The banks must come to tbe relief of the people and the Government, or the war must cease. The guarantee of the commission merchant might be varied, so as to pledge himself, or themselves only. For tbe application of tbe first sales of the crops to tbe payment of the rate, let the form be thus : I, or we, promise to pay to the President, Directors, etc., of the Bank of ten thousand dollars, with interest from date at 8 per annum, payable out of tbe pro ceeds of the first sales of my crop of the growth, of 1861. And the guarantee of tbe commission mer chant thus : I, or we, guarantee tbe faithful application of the net proceeds of the sales of the crop of A B that may be consigned to me (or us) to the liquidation of tbe principal and interest of the above note I think your banks must fear that tbe Con federated States are to be flooded with the Confederate treasury notes, and that all debts will be collected in that currency. To prevent its too great circulation in the banks, they should be glad to pay it out for good paper. If the treasury notes are good, the planters’ paper must be good. If the planters’ paper be not good, tbe treasury notes must be worth less. From the Cincinnati Times. The North and the South—lVhat Each are Doing'. An exchange, iu comparing the exertions of the North and the South in the pending strug gle, says that “ If the South, with less than half the population of the North, can turn out more men than the latter, she will succeed, and deserves to succeed too! If we think more of our personal comfort than we do of our liberties, we are unfit to bear the name of freemen—and the sooner we are ‘subdued’ by a superior power the better. A few more re verses and we shall have earned the right of being despised by the meanest power on earth. Although we are not willing to concede that the rebels deserve success, or that the lethar gy of the North deserves defeat, jet, if the former section continues its gigantic exer tions, and the latter does no more than it has done, the Constitution will be overthrown, and the Union severed by a contemptible minori ty- Making allowance for the divided sentiment in the border slave States, we find this strug gle is conducted by seven millions of people, fighting in the cause of despotism and slave ry, against twenty-one millions contending for law, order and constitutional liberty, the latter having at its command the entire navy, the majority of the regular army, all the best grain raising territory, all the manufactories, and nearly all the money in the country, and yet tbe foeman has always been able to con gregate the largest armies, and, of course, between men of equal courage, this advantage must decide the fate of the day. Tbeir armies are moved with celerity from point to point, while ours are kept idle in the camps, to be demoralized by inactivity. A few painted logs, or large stove pipes, and a regiment of men, is sufficient to keep 2-50,000 at bay, while the main body of the rebels go to some other point. With a large flotilla at our command, tbe Potomac has been closed, or at least batteries have been erected so that it on be closed at any moment necessary or convenient; and yet not a man is moved in the threatened direction, and we are daily told that our enemies have, as yet, magnani mously let our ships pass and repass. This they will no doubt continue to do until they discover some prize worthy an effort. It is true, our ships have occasionally “shell ed the woods” and “found no rebels but of what consequence were these puerile expedi tions, if the disputed ground was unoccupied I They were as senseless as the chastising of the sea by Xerxes. There can be no longer any question that we have been out-generaled on the Potomac, if not elsewhere. No doubt but our enemies smile, when they see how easily we have been deceived, concentrating our armies where there was no danger, and leaving exposed points threatened by attack. It was not by encountering Hannibal in Italy, but by carrying tbe war into Africa, that the powei' of Carth tge was broken ; and it is not by defensive, but offensive operations, that the rebellion can be crushed. The sooner this is realized, and the sooner the govern ment makes preparations commensurate with the magnitude of the task before it, the bet ter. If we lacked a single essential to the pros ecution of tbe war, there would be some ex cuse for delay. But we do not. New England manufacturers can furnish clothing and arms in abundance ; Pennsylvania and the North- West could feed all tbe armies of Europe, and New York merchants, and, indeed, the capi talists all over the country have liberally fur nished money, and any amount which may be needed will be forthcoming. As to men, see what Indiana and Illinois, with live Governors, have done ' Other States would have done as well, under the same cir cumstances, and we should have had an army of at least 600,000 men in the field. From the commencement, the people manifested the ut most willingness to volunteer ; but they have too often met with, not only no encourage ment, but absolute discouragement. On the other hand, not a rebel has offered his services to the Confederate authorities, but he has been accepted ; and whenever the voluntary system failed, the ranks have been filled by drafting. With but a single line of railroad from the Cotton States to Richmond, an army of a quarter of a million has been concentrated on the Potomac and in Western Virginia; and with comparatively few re sources, it has been fed and clothed. Suppose the exertions of the loyal States had been equal, in proportion to their num bers and advantages, with those of the dis loyal ones,, does any one suppose that to day there would have been the vestige of the re bellion remaining ? It is not too late yet to retrieve what we have lost by inactivity ; but it will be too late ere long. Unreserved Public Sale of the Entire Wholesale and Retail Stock of MESSRS. ROBERT CO.
