of disloyal persons being engaged in buying
cotton in the South and carrying it to Ten

we have no sort of doubt. It was so nearly
ascertained to be a fact, that Gov. Brown
wisely prohibited the shipping of cotton over

A LETTER FROM BRUTUS.
Roue, Ga., March 31, 1862.
Messrs. Editors:
Within the last few days a considerable
panic has sprung up in this section cf coun
try, on account of the apparent scarcity and
the high price of provisions. I say apparent,
for it ii not believed that provisions are as
sc rce as they seem to be; indeed it is well
kt own that t'tere are large quantities of corn
and whett in the country. Bacon is admitted
to bo scarce, yet not so scarce as to amount
to a serious inconvenience, could we only pro
cure fro.u the West a sufficient quantity of the
large su’-plus of syrups and sugirs now known
tociog the wirehouses for want of transpor
tation. This embargo upon the transportation
of syrup it the present time is a serious
mitie*, and the government ought t> look to
it. It should not be forgotten that one of the
principal itsms in the programme of the
Lincoln government, is to starve ihe people
Into suoinissluu. Aiicaii, iiu ctrta <.uibn eo
run up the price of syrup from forty-tight
c'nts to over one dollar per gallon. But why
do farmers hold bsck their corn and flour from
the market? There are two or three reasons
—o eof which is the panic resulting from the
pre.enthigh price of groceries; another is a
spirit of retaliation towa'd the merchant and
s,iei n ator; and a third is, the exercise on the
part of many of the seme selfish, sordid spirit
which they are so retdy to condema in the
speculators, to wit, a desire to obtain exorbi
tant prices for their prodoce. The 6tay law
has no doubt contributed to this sp rit, as it
enables parties to bold back their produce who
o.her wise would be forced to sell to p--y debts.
Recently, I learn that parlies passing them
selveiotl as go ernment agents have bought
up large lots of corn and fl ur to ship to Camp
Me >onald, wnen in reility they were buyiug
on private account. A statement to this effect

Cumberland Gap, Tenn., March. 25, ’62.
Dear Confederacy:
Tne enemy are rapidly retreating to Cum
berland Ford. They have been whipped, and
will hardly venture another attack soon. We
have been ordered to report at Knoxville;
you will please therefore announce in your
paper for our friends to address there—or had
they not better wait until we find if we are
ordered farther? They will save delay by not
writing to this office. This does not include
Yeiser’s Battery, who will probably remain.
We all slept sounder last night than we have
for weeks. No further casualties to record. -

THE SITUATION in THE WE3T. j
Memphis. Trnn , M rcb 27, 62.
There are some leading facts connected !
with the respective posit ons of the two ar
mies in the West, which it were well your
readers understood, and this they cannot do
wiihou. frequent reference to their maps. Let
me reter bri- fly to some of these facts.
The enemy acids undisputed control of the
Tennessee river the Cumberland, the Ohio,
the Mt-sissippi diwn to Island No. 10, and the
Miss. uri. All these rivers converge toseom-
mou centra—Cairo—and all have a common
outlet—the Mississippi. If you will suppose
the Mis.-iisippi to be the aro>. you can readily
imagine the other rivers fc> be the fingers of
the hand. A boat launched upon any one of
these streams, can proceed to any point upon
any of the others-just as a train starting
uom Chat auooga on your State railroad, may
run to Atlanta and stop, or proceed by the
Georgia road to Augusta, or by the Macon &
Western to Macon, Savannah, Albany and
Columbus, or by the LaGrange road to West
Point.
Upon the north bank of the Ohio are the
populoui and wealthy States of Oaio, Indiana
aud Illinois, and ja„t north of them lie the
States of Michigan and Wisconsin. On the
east bank of tha upper Mississippi we find
some of the same Si-tes, viz: Illinois and
Wisconsin, and on the west bank the States of
Iowa and Minnesota. Tne Missouri penetrates
the State of Missouri, and is the convenient
outlet for the Territory of Nebraska and the
State of Kansas. The Cumberland flows thro’
the heart of Tennessee and under the walls of
her capitol, and after traversing western Ken
tucky, empties its waters into the Ohio near
Cairo, the point of confluence of the last nam
ed river and the Mississippi. The Tennessee,
rising in North Carolina and western Virgin-
flows through east Tennessee and north
Alabama, cuts the northeast corner of Missis
sippi, traverses west Tennessee and Kentucky,
and finds an outlet into the Ohio at a point
still nearer to Cairo than tho mouth of the
Cumberland. Some of these streams have
important tributaries—as for example, the
Ohio, Mississippi and Missouri—which con
tribute largely to the extent of territory which
finds an outlet over their waters.
The rapid gl .nee at the map will enable the
reader to realize the immense advantages the
enemy possesses in the control of these rivers.
It would require, for instance, at least a week
for an army to march from Nashville to Sa
vannah upon the banks of the Tennessee;
whereas, the same army can be transported
by boats to the same place in forty-eight or
fifty hou s. It would require all of two weeks
to march from Louisville, and still longer to
march from St. Louis ; while in transports the
distance can be accomplished inside of four
days.
Inasmuch, therefore, as the Tennessee pen
etrates our terraoiy, the enemy has it in hii
•»**»ec *•<> concentrate, ia an incredibly short
time, all his disposable forces upon any g.ven
point of attack. General Buell is believed to
have an army of 75,(11)0 men in Kentucky aud
f'eunessee, an 1 General Halicck has as many
more on the west side of the Mississippi. Ail
these forces not rtquired elsewhere, can, by
means of the rivers I bavo named, be easily
and rapidly coucentrated either at Savannah
or Island No. 10 Meanwhile, it would beim-
possible for tne Confederates to move with
equal celerity. Railways afford many facili
ties in the movement of an army, but they
are not to be compared with either of the
fine rivers alluded to above. It is true, the
enemy cannot reacn the Memphis A Charles
ton railroad anywhere without quitting the
water; but then it is only a few miles from
the Tennessee river to the road.
The advantages which the control of the
wes.eru rivers gives the enemy are as wel
known to him as they can possibly be to us;
..nd, therefore, there can be no impropriety
iu speaking of them here. My ouly ob ectin
aiiuaing to the subject at all is to call the at
tention of your readers to it, in order that
hey may 'ully comprehend the position ol
affairs m the Valley of the Mississippi. The
enemy has greatly the advantage in numbers,
arms aud position ; but wnat we lack in these
respec s, we hope to be able to make up by
activity r. solution, aud superior generalship.
Meanwhile, let tne people and authorities at
borne strain every nerve to forward the newly
raised regiments to the field. If we are driv
en back, it will ouly be to raliy ana renew the
fight. Tue loss of a battery, thank God! is
not the loss of the country. But defeat does
not enter into our calculations.
Late movements on tne Tennessee indicate
a pupose on the part of the enemy, to mislead
and deceive. At one lime he appears to be
mislead and deceive. At one time he appears
to be advancing from the river in the direc-
t on of Purdy; at another he would seem to
be moving out towards Corinth, and next to
be falling mck. To day a large fleet of tran
sports is seen to ascend the river; to-night or
to morrow they return but whether to Padu
cah, Cairo, or Nashville, it is impossible to
say. A.l I do know is, that the Confederates
are not asleep.
The bombardment still continues at Island
No. 10. The enemy is careful, however, to
keep out of harm’s way. He fires at increased
intervals and at long range, and his shot sel
dom reach our works. I hear that every non
commissioned officer in Capt. Rucker’s battery
has been made a lieutenant, and every private
a non-commissioned officer, for gallant aftd
meritorious conduct. Never were honors
more wisely bestowed or more richly deserv'
ed. Thus tar, Rucker’s battery has borne the
brunt of the bombardment

From the Memphis Appeal, March 29.
The Battle iu Arkansas—Further Details.
We had an interview yesterday with an
officer direct from our army iu the West, and
from him obtained the following interesting
details of the battle at Sugar Creek, or Elk •
horn.
Gen. Price had remaiq^d at Springfield un
til the enemy were in Bix miles of the town,
when he put his army in motion towards the
Arkansas line. Thera was more or lei-8 skir
mishing between bis rear guaid and the ene
my’s advance until he crossed into Arkansas
and effected a junciion with Van Dorn and
McCulloch. In ail these skirmishes, our in
formant says the Missouri sharp shooters in
variably got the best of our pursuers.—
Price’s object was tc draw them down into
Arkansas, since Van Dorn had not joined
him at Springfield.
The Confederates rested a few days at
Cove Creek, in Washington county, Arkan
sas, some thirty miles below the line. At
length Gen. Vau Dora having got ready, he
de ermined to go in search of tbe enemy, and to
make the attack himself. The troops were
ordered to cook five days’ provisions, and
move upon the enemy who had stopped at
Sugar Creek. At Bentonville, on their way
up, they encountered the Federal rearguard,
and had quite a brilliant skirmish, iu which
we lost one man and the enemy eight or ten.
We also took one piece of artillery from them
there. The Confederates marched all that
day and night without food or sleep, and
Came up with ihe enemy in the Sugar Creek
bills, at half past 10 o’clock, A. M , when
the action at ouce became general. The en
emy was completely surrounded, Gen. Price
attacking them an the north aud Gen. Mc
Culloch on the west.
It is now generally believed that we made
a mistake in surrounding the enemy and cut
ting off every avenue of escape. It is
thought that if we had attacked them from one
side only, as it is understood Gen. Price pro-
posed, we should have driven them out and
taken everything they had ere tbe sun went
down. As it was, we drove them two miles
from all their strong positions, and held their
encampment during the night, with the great
er part of their commissary stores, on which
our half famished men fed.
Many of our troops who were supposed to
be captured by the enemy, have come in, and
our whole loss iu killed, wounded and priso
ners, will not exceed six hundred, viz: one
hundred and twenty five killed, two hundred
and seventy-five wou- ded, and two hundred
prisoners. The enemy’s loss was far greater
probably five to our one. A Federal colo
nel who was taken on the evening of the
first day, says their loss up to that time was
terrific—probably twelve hundred to fifteen
hundred—and the next morning they lost
many more, among whom were several offi
cers. Such prisoners as have escaped from
them, say that there was no exultation among
them, so heavy had their losses been. The
Contederates took two hundred and twenty-
five prisoners.
On the morning of the 8th, the enemy,
having taken a strong position during the
night, re opened the fight. The action soon
became general, and continued until about
half-past nitte o’clock, by which time Gen.
Van Dorn had completed his arrangements to
w.tadraw his forces.
The reasons for our withdrawal were, first,
that a number of >he Sothern regiments, after
the tall ot McCulloch aud McIntosh, became
demoralized, and could not be relied upon.—
-a auo r J-* —a r- tOar-
mans,) while fleeing from the field, came up
on our ammuniiiou wagons, and the teamsters
supposing they intended an attack, put whip
to their norses and fled as rapidly as possi
ble. This left several of our batteries with
out a single round. These unfurtuuate oc
currences rendered it necessary for the Con
federates to retire, and that at a time when
victory had actually perched upon their ban
ners.
With the exception of a portion of the
regiments thrown into confusion by the un
timely fall of McCulloch and McIntosh, the
retreat was in the utmost good order—so
good, indeed, that many did not know but
that they were making a flank movement on
the enemy until late in the afternoou. Seve
ral of our batteries were in great danger,
having to be brought off through the woods
aud over the hills. The enemy did not pur
sue, except a few squads of cavalry who f 1-
lvwed up some of our baggage trails. We
brought off four more pieces of cannon than
we went on the field w.th, having lost only
two pieces which were disabled and spiked.
Several of tbe enemy’s batteries were taken,
but they could not be brought off. They
were dismounted aud the wheels taken off;
dry brush aud leaves were piled on them, aud
they were burnt by our troops.
Our list of killed aui wounded is still im
perfect. Col. Rives of the Missouri Confed
erates, and Capt. Churchill Clark of the ar
(iilery, whose loss has not heretofore been
mentioned, were killed. Their fall is greatly
deplored throughout the army. Many other
officers were killed or wounded. Gen. Van
Dorn paid a high compliment to Price’s army.
Many of their charges would have doue cred
it to Napoleon’s old guard The troops in
McCullocn’s division, up to tbe lime of his
and McIntosh’s fall, fought with the most de
termined gallantry, and covered themselves
with glory.
We left the field on the second day, for the
reasons given above; and yet the result of
the battle was as good as a victory to the
Confederates. They have so crippled the
enemy, that they will be unable to attack us
until they get reinforcements. Prioe and
Van Dom, however, can march where they
please and without molestation. At last ac
counts they were recruiting and getting
ready for another forward movement, m a
direction little suspected by the enemy.
With the exception of Stanwatie’s regiment,
our Indian allies did not take much part in
the fight. Tnis regiment took a battery,
having approaohed it behind trees, and be
haved with much courage ana gallantry.—
Owing to the early tall of McCulloch and
MclntoBh, some six or seven of our regi
ments were never brought into action. The
enemy’s forces were at least double ours.
Fort Macon and the Steamer Nashville.
The Wilmington Journal of the 3lst March,
says that the Rev. Mr. Martin, of Bsafort, sate
the Sashville go out; and that Fort Macon is
not blown up, or evacuated, or short of pro
visions, nor is it likely to be.
A correspondent of tbe PeteratfCg
Express says that the Virginia makes ^wo
Kuots per hear more than she ever djj*s the
Merrimac. Notwithstanding her bJavy coat
of armor, ihe vessel was found to be so buoy
ant that the vast quantity of ax»a ballast
necessary to siDk her hulk thirty inenes, was
put about abord to bring her down to her
bearings, submerge her armor and give her
something like the corcce*piated draught of
Water. Tuese being facia, the Virginia must
be ihorougbiy seawjrtiy and capable or any
sort of ocean work of resisting any scit
of wear and tee*' uf ocean elements. Let
her make a cri-^u down our coast.
The Engagement in the SorNP.—The in
telligence-^ the destruction of one of tbe
blockujtT* in Mississippi Sound yesterday is
adefc ^rus morsel of news. The New London,
wf^af, jbe C. S. N. steamers “Oregon” and
“1“ lico” sent to Davy Jone’s locker, was
cue of the most pestilent of Lincoln’s whole
fleet of cruisers. Her commander was a dar
ing and enterprising officer, and ever active
in the bad cause* The “New London” was
a propeller of three hundred tons burthen,
very fast, aud of light draught. Her arma
ment was ortgonally smooth 31’s, we believe,
but it is slated that she was latterly supplied
with rifled ordnance. She was bought into
the naval service of Lincoln last summer at a
Cost of $30,000.

that three steamers ran the blockade from
New Orleans and arrived safely in Mobile on
Monday. It is said that they brought large
cargoes of New Orleans produce.—Columbus

Dear Confederacy:
If you arc ever at a loss for something to
put in your “Poet’s Corner” here is one of
Campbell's, the Scotch poet, which, with a
change of name in the third statxa is very
appropriate at the present time. It is enti
tled “Stanzas on the Tnreataned Invasion of
1803;" but you m'ght change it slightly thus:
“Stanzas on t-e invasion of the Confederate
States in 1862." Yours, truly,
MARGARET
Our bisoms we’ll bare for the glorious stri e.
And our oath is recoidod on I igh,..
To prevail in the cause that is dearer than
life,
Or crushed in its ruins to die!
Then arise, fellow freemen, and stretch the
rig't hat d,
And swear to prevail in your dear native
land 1
’Tis the home we hold sacred is laid to our
trust—
God bless the green land of the brave!
Should a conqueror tread on our forefather’s
dust
It Wuuld rouse the o’d dead from their
graves!
TLen rise, fellow freemen, and at etch the
right hand,
And swear to prevail in your dear native
land.
In a Georgian’s home shall a spoiler abi Je,
Profaning its loves and its charms ?
Shall a Yankee insult the loved fair at our
side?
To arms, oh ! my country, to arms !
Then rise, fellow freemen, and stretch the
right hand,
And swear.to prevail in your dear native
land.
Shall a tyrant enslave us, my countrymen?
—EO?
His head to the sword shall be given—
A death-bed repentance be tsught tho preud
foe
And his blood be an offering to Heaven !
Then rise, fellow freemen, and stretch the
right hand,
And swear to prevail in your dear native
land 1
And here, dear “ Conf ideracy," are two
stanzas from “ Song of the Greeks," which
are very appropriate now :
Ah ! what though no succor advances,
Nor Christendom’s chivalrous lances,
Are stretched in our aid—be the combat our
own!
And ws’ll perish or conquer more proudly
alone;
For we’ve sworn by our country’s assaulters,
By the virgins they dragged from our altars,
By our massacred patriots, our children in
chains,
By our heroes of old, and their blood in our
veins,
That, living, we shall be victorious,
Or that, dvinv. our death shall be glorious.
A breath of submission we breathe not;
The sword that we’ve drawn we will sheathe
not 1
Its scabbard is left where our martyrs are laid,
And the vengeance of long years hss whetted
its blade.
Earth may hide—wayes ingulf—fires consume
us,
But they shall not to slavery doom us;
If they rule it shall be o’er our ashes and
graves;
But we’ve smote them already with fire on
the waves,
Aud new triumphs on land are before us,
Lo, the change ! Heaven’s banner is o’er us
A Suggestion.
Roswell, Cobb County, April 1, 1862.
Messrs. Editors: There is no doubt that
the mind and heart of our people is set upon
success in the war in which we are engaged,
and that we are willing to give up much to
tbe common cause even before we are pressed
by the sordid argument, if we do not sacri
fice some portion the enemy is likely to seize
the whole.
This willing mind, however, does not read
ily perceive many things which it would 4o
cheerfully when the attention is drawn to it.
Among the claims upon us lately, has been
the call for brass and copper for cannon, and
many churches have given their bells for
this purpose.
It has occurred to my mind, that although
this is not improper, there is another supply,
whieh should be tried, and fthich may prove
ample for all our wants, and had better be
exhausted before we deprive ourselves of the
sweet sound of the church-going bell.
If any man will look around his house he
will be surprised to fiud so many articles ot
brass whioh can well be spared, and although
the artistic beauty of many things may be
spoiled, would it not afford greater pleasure
to dispense with them for oar country’s use,
than keep them for vain show ? 1 have cast
my eye on the brass tops of shovels and tongs
and the tops of the andirons, and thought
why may not I and all my countrymen give
up these; yea, and even look with as mach
pride on the iron shanks whieh would be left,
as when they were sheltered by the glossy
brass.
Let ub have it fashionable to show in our
fire-plaoce8 these tokens of patriotism; let
them be turned into cannon ; and our men
impressed with the determination that these
symbols of our altars, and oar firesides are
never to be surrendered.
VERBUM 8AT.
(We like the patriotic suggestion and spir
it of “ Verbcm Sat,” but before our people
spoil their andirona, shovels, tongs, &c„
let them first know whether it will do to
make cannon of, and if the government wants
l \‘ do, and if it is wanted, let us
give it with our whole heart.—-Eds. Conved.)
Efforts of the Federals to Spread Disaffec
tion Iu Tennessee aud among Tennessee
Soldiers.
The Memphis correspondent of the Mobile
Register says:
A strong effort is being made to detach the
former Union men in this State from the cause
ot the Confederate Government. Tho loss of
the greater part of the territory of the State,
the occupation of their beautiful Capitol by a
large army flushed with victory, the lack of
confidence in cur officers, and to some extent
in the energy of the President and his Cabi
net, present, i ur enemies think, a favorable
occasion lor the initiation of such a movement.
It has already been given out, “that condign
punishment is held in reserve for the tais-
chie'ous leaders of the rebellion, while their
deluded followers will b* dealt by with for
bearance and clemency.” The olject of this
policy is apparent. It is to divide our people
and then to coi q ier us.
We ascertain from the Daily Crescent
that the French government owns 8,000 hhds.
of tobacco in New Orleans. It will be burned,
says the Crnscent, or rolled into the Missis
sippi before the Emperor obtains possession
of it.
