The New Orleans Bulletin of the 2Gtb init.
contains the following:

We have seen the order to Col. Lee from
General Lawton, which states that in conse

Charleston, Col. Lee will be the senior officer,
and therefore in command of General Mer-

“ Fair Play.”
We have received a communication in re
ply to "Bilver Grey" by "Fair Play." It is
written with considerable ability, and we
would cheerfully publish it, if it were not so
carelessly written. We can't publish it with
out re writing it, which is too great a tax on
our time.
Communications should be written on one
side only of the paper, in a distinct hand—
one that can be easily read; the spelling
crond. the sentences and paragraphs
punctuated. We are compett««,'M>).a a correctly
valuable articles for want of attention to
these matters.
Partisans.
Wo again call attention to the fact that
Cols. V. II. Taliaferro and W. C. Claiborne
are raising a battalion of P^ptizans for im
mediate service, and to advise those who
have a fancy for this dashing, romanlio
branch of the service, to unite with them.
The enrolling officer under the Conscript
ready commenced.
Col. Claiborne is a prominent Virginian,
and has distinguished himself during this
war. Col. Taliaferro has been a surgeon in
the army from the commencement of the war
till recently, when he resigned to go into the
service as a Partisan. He was engaged in
the first fight in Virginia, at Sewell’s Point
battery, aDd planted the Georgia colors upon
it, under a heavy bombardment. He also,
under the same fire, removed an embank
ment of saud before the mouth of one of our
guns, which prevented it from playing upon
the enemy. These things are reoorded of
the Doctor in the ofiioial report of the aotion.
Though he has been a surgeon in the army,
he has been found with a gun in his hand
every time there was anything like a fight
•n hand.
We mention these things to let everybody
know the kind of men who are now raising
this battalion.
For further information of this battalion
we refer to our remarks in last Sunday’s
issue.
The Traitor Convention of Tennessee.
The following, from the Memphis Argue
of the 24th inst., throws a flood cf light on
the late traitor convention at Nashville :
A gentleman who was in Nashville when
this traitorous cabal convened (having ar
rived there on his way to this city from a
Northern military prison) and listened to
the treasonable harangues, informs us that
su far from any exhibition of the ‘ wild en
thusiasm’ and hearty cheering so theatri
cally displayed in the report of Andy John
son’s organ, and the ‘ immense crowd’ so
cxulticgly alluded to, the meeting was rather
slimly attended, few being present save the
creatures of the new ‘government,’ and the
Federal soldiery.
Not a word of approval, not a cheer, is
sued from the lips of a Tennessean, other
than those of the renegades whose names
appear in the proceedings. The few respec
table citizens who attended were passive and
indignant spectators, while the only cheers
greeting the speakers came from brutal, uni
formed apologies for soldiers, drawu from
the lager beer saloons and gutters of St.
Louis, Chicago and Milwaukee. At inter
vals they shouted, and deolared that Tennes
see should return to the ‘ Union,’ but the
people found* nothing in the harangues to
awaken a responsive chord in their breasts
It was a puenle, puny effort to do something,
which utterly failed, and left exposed the
carcase of Unionism in Tennsssee more rot
ten and loathsome than before."

II. On the 27th day of May, instant, all
circulation of or trade in Confederate notes,
shall cease. All sales or transfers of prop
erty made on or after that day, in consid
eration of such notes or bills, directly or in
directly will be void, and the property con

Geo. C. Strong, A. A. G. Chief of Staff.
The banks in consequence of the foregoing
order, give notice to their depositors to
withdraw their deposits of Confederate notes
prior to the 27th, else they will be held at
their own risk.
Reverse of General Heth’s Command in
Western Virginia.
The Richmond Enquirer of the 27ih ult.
has the following:
“A rumor was current in the city last
night that Gen. Heth had been defeated. All

The Richmond correspondent of the
Charleston Courier says:
‘‘Our joy at Jackson’s successes is quieted
in a measure by the news of Heth’s reverse
near Lewisburg. A letter from a participant
states that we had decidedly the advantage

a precipitate retreat, carrying with it the
rest, and resulting in a loss of several pieces
of cannon and 3U0 or 400 killed, wounded
and missing. We fell back to the narrows of
New River, burning the Greenbrier bridge
behind us, and thus checking pursuit.”
The Examiner of the 27th lays :
We had news Monday evening of a disas
ter to General Heth’s command in South
western Virginia, but, as the intelligence of
it was not entirely confirmed, and, at any
rate, very unwelcome, we were not ia any
haste to announce it to our readers- From
what we have since learned, it appears that
General Heth was badly whipped, losing two
hundred men and two pieces of artilly. The
fight took plaoe at Lewisburg last Saturday.
Our force was about eighteen huudred men
and, although unwilling to believe it, we are
constrained, from the best information we
can get on the subject, to think that our de
feat was accomplished by au inferior force
of the enemy.
CropB ia Gordon County.
Gordon Count*, Ga., May 29,1*62.
The wheat crop will be ready fer harvesting by the
last of next week. I think it will make on an average
a half crop—much better than we expected when the
rust (or mildew) first made its appearance. The up
land crop is not so bad as that on the low-lands. Oats
are nearly ruined by the rust.
The farmers are now done pi .ntlng corn. some up,
but looks quite sorry.
SUGAR VALLEY
Crops in Cherokee-Georgia.
Wheat and oat harvest has commenced in Cherokee,
Georgia. The wheat in places will make an average
crop, but some fields will not yisld much over the seed
sown. Oats generally bad, and but few fields wlil bring
a satisfactory crop. Irish potatoes are very fine thro’-
out the country, and will make enough for both the peo
ple at home and the army. We hear of but very little
cotton planted in that section.
To Make Black Ink.
Editor of Southern Confederacy :
Dear Sir—According to your request, through jour
Dally, for a receipt to make good Black Ink, I have
the pleasure of offering to you the following, which is
excellent: 1 gallon soft water, 1 ounce Extiact of Lo
wood, and a half ounce Carbonate of Potaasa.
Respectfully, J. J. COHEN.
the opportunity to pay their regards to the insolent
foe.
The fire from the gunboats was very accurate, both
solid shot and shell being thrown at the battery. The
enemy no doubt designed this attack for the purpose of
preventing us from placing further obstructions in Sto-
no rivsr. The gunboats, three in number, still lav
nearly abreast of the battery at Newtown Cat.

Salt. Home years ago my father made la bushels ol
Halt from a Halt Well in this county. This well was
worked for some years, but Salt becoming very cheap
It was discontinued. We have no surplus labor here.
There must be now in yonr State, and the other Colton
States, a good deal of unemployed labor.
This well lies at the base of the Clinch Mountain, in
the same parallel with the celebrated King's Halt
Works. My brother, Col. Samuel Powel (who Is now
In the army at Corinth), and myself own the works,
with some 10,000 acres of the heaviest timbered land In
the world contiguous thereto. Niither of us have
means to spare to engage In the business. We will be
very liberal as to terms with any gentleman or compa

We understand that Col. Benj. Laughvidge
the commanding Colonel of Murray county
militia, when Governor Brown’s Proclamation
of the 20th of February, to atop the stills
was published, denied the right of the Gov
ernor to issue the order. Instead of trying
to stop others he run a still himself. On
learning these facts, the Governor issued an
order to Maj. Geu. Black, who commands
this division. Gen. Black sent Brigadier
Gen. Stewart lo look into the case, who ar
rested Col. Laughridge, and Gen. Biack or
dered a court-martial to try Litu for a viola
tion of orders. The court-martial met at
Rome a few days since, when the Col., with
the assistance of counsel, made his defence.
The trial lasted four days, and resulted in
the conviction of Col. Laughridge. The
fourt imposed a tine of $500 upon him, and
the sentence has been approved by the Gov
ernor, who has ordered the Cue to be col
lected.
The militia officers of the State who
neglect or refuse to seize the stills, may see
from this case that they have to meet the
penalty of disobedience of orders. The Gov
ernor will thank all good citizens who know
of stills running, to report the facts with the
names of the militia officers, who have
neglected their duty.—Federal Union.

The Assassination or Mr. George W
Johnston.—A party of thieves from the
Yankee fleet yesterday, says the Vicksburg
Evening Cituen, made a vidit to the plants*
tion of Messrs. Brown and Johnston, on the
•Louisiana shore, committing all manner of
depredations, killing hogs and cattle, and
destroying whatever came in their way, and
finally approached the dwelling of Mr. Geo.
W. Johnston, with the intention of plunder*
ing it of whatever valuables they might find.
Mr. Johnston confronted them and warned
them off—telling them that they had killed
his cattle and hogs, and destroyed his prop
erty, but that they must not enter his huuse—
that he shiuld defend it at all hazards,
they paid no heed to his remonstrance and

patch was reseived:
PocoTALiao, Thursday Ivsning, Six o’clock.
A Federal force was reported by ihe pickets as ad
vancing upon Pocotaligo Statioa, C. A H. Railroad, this
morning. Our force consisted of the Kctledge Mount
ed Riflemen, CapL Trenholm, Capt. Bluke Heyward’s
Cavalry Company, and Maj. Felder’s Squadron of four
Companies of Cavalry. C’ol. Walker, the Commandant
of this Military District, was telegrkph.d for, to Har
deevllle, and arrived prior to the engagement. Theen
emy were held In check until the arrival of nine Com
panics of Infantry, and a section of the Beaufort Ar
tillery, Uapt. Elliott. The enemy’s column penetrated
as far as Old Pocotaligo, two miles from the Station.—
At the date of this dispatch they are retreating to
wards the Ferry, distant nine miles, and our troops are
In full pursuit, with some hope of cutting off at least
part of them. Maj. Jtfford’s Squadron (three compa
nles) was expected to reach the soene of action by the
Combahee road. Gen. Pemberton, with Col. Slaugh
ter’s 51st Georgia Regiment, was also momentarily
pected.
We regret to announce that two of the Rutledge
Mounted Riflemen were killed In the engagement.-
Col. Walker had a horse killed under him. Other ca
sualties, If any, not yet known.
The Enxjit’s Gunboats Shilling oub Battxbi.s be
low the Oitt.—The stir caused by the news from Po
cotaligo yesterday afternoon, was considerably i fl
creased by the news that the enemy’s gunboats, after
entering Stono Inlet, were at thslr usual work, a few
miles below the city. It appears that five gunboats,
one of which appeared to be iron-cla-i and without
masts, steamed up Stono River with tht flood tide yes
terday morning. They threw a few autiis near the
camps at Seeesslonville, proving, conclusively, that
our troops there were within range of the gunboats.—
The Yankees then shelled the steamer Dekalb, forc
ing her to retire under theguns of Fort Pemberton.
Yesterday afternoon, at flood tide, the steamers be
gan shewing our battery at Newtown-Cut, and the fire
was returned. No casualties are reported on our side.
One shot from our battery was plainly seen to cut down
a mast, and other damage was probably done aboard
the gunboats, as our practice was good. This battery
was In charge of Captain Smith, Company F, (White’s
Battalion). Lieut. T. G. White assisted in the com
mand of the battery.
Correspondence of the TAw York Times. ;
American Matters Abroad.
London, April 2V, 1862.
As I expected, and warned yon in my last, the speech
ef Mr. Gladstone, the most able and eloquent member
ot the British ministry, has been made the text of a
regular onslaught upan America by the government
organs, as well as the opposition. The Times opened
with two leaders. One was an effort to destroy aboli
tion sympathy ia England, what there is of it, with the
North. The other calls the attention of the nation to
the greai, increasing, and terrible suffering in Eauca-
shiie, where people are beginning to die of stairation.
There is every indication either that the policy n!
the government is changed, and that the people are be
ing prepared for the change, or that a desperate effort
will be made to compel such a change. The speech of
ila Gladstone can leave no one in doubt as to the t eal
sympathies of the government. 1 have told you what
Were and are the feelings of the people. Lp to this
tune, there has been but little demand for intervention
because the distress could be borne. It will not be pa
tiently borne much longer. The Government Is iu a
critical position, and the nation in erne of fearful Jis-
P ess. Howie measures must be taktu to relieve nation
al distress, and, if possible, to save the administration.
There has been no time since the war began when the
feeling was so angry as at this moment—no time whe i
the danger of intervention was so great
I Bee but one thing that can prcYeut it, and that i»
Immediate, great, decisive victories on the part of the
North, accompanied with or followed by the develop
ment of Union sentiments, or a spirit of submission In
the South. Victories alone wlil nut relieve the wants
of England. There must be cotton. With all the boasts
of other supplies from India sr China, it is slow to
come. The lactory girls are selling their clothing piece
by piece, and their hymn-books, to buy bread. The
papers fill up day by day with reports of distress and
ciamors for relief. The people have been patient, but
this patience will not last.
The action of the government toward the proas, and
the refusal to allow Mr. Russel to accompany the army
of the Potomac, have had a very unfavorable influence
There is very little faith in the reports of Union victo
ries. It is almost universally believed here, the wish
being father of the thought, that the battle ol Pe&iidg
was a Southern victory, that Beauregard defeated the
Union troops at Pittsburg Landing ; and there are
plenty of rumors that McClellan has met with a disas
trous repulse at Yorktown. There are great hopes o
the Merrimac. Any decided success ot the South, any
great disaster to the North, would be celebrated here
with quite as earnest a thanksgiving as any proclaimed
by President Lincoln.
Should the war go on .. month longer without a sue
cess so decided as to promise a speedy termination, you
may lock for a joint protest from the European gov
ernments, accompanied, perhaps, with the proffer of
good offices, etc. You cannot pay any attention to the
protest, nor accept of mediation. There will come
then, a formal recognition of the independenc ot the
Southern Confederacy, Well, this has always been
question cf time, and cannot be postponed much long
•r. If it end with that, it is of no practical lmportan
any more than the opinion of Mr. Gladstone, that eve
rything depends, not upon the North to conquer,
that of the South to resist, but upon the disposition
the Southern people to return to or remain out of th
Union, to govern themselves or to be governed by the
North.
But it is the first step that costs. Let England an
France, or either, take the first step of interference
and the rest will soon follow. If a Trent affair will not
present itself, anotner will be found, Vessels will
Yrngfand been frien-lly to the North
there would hare been no trouble about the Trent
less disappointment when it was amicably settled.
I shall end as Ibegun. Expect no sympathy from
England. The interests and feelings of tips country
point to intervention. In opinion and in feeling the
government and governing classes here are against th

We had the pleasure of seeing in ou
sanctum, yesterday, Capt. J. F. Adams, who
is iu command of the company that we have
noticed elsewhere as having ooiue through
from Lexington, Ky. We learn that sixty
odd of them came from Owen and Henry
counties; the rest, under Mr. Castlemau,
from the vicinity v f Lexington. Capt. A.
has orders from the Ssorelai-y of War to
raise a battalion, and proposes to make Ken
tucky the scene ot Lis operations. He gives
tbe most cheering aeoouuis of the .Southern
feeling in Kentucky, and the prospeut of its
early development iu a manner thaL will re
dound to the practical benefit of the 8outh«
ern cause, We hid him- God speed in his
patriotic purpose. We learn that the com
pany was in the temporary charge of a youth
sixteen years of age, when the encounler
took place with the Home Guard, uuder the
lead of a notorious Lincolnite named Jim
Townsend, resulting in Lis capture, with
twelve others of the same stripe, all of whorn
were safely brought through. The courage
and gallantry of this youth is only equalled
by his modesty in positively refusing to
allow his name to be published. His modest
merit is to be rewarded with the first lieu

Yheir design was, no doubt, the pulling up and de

and held In check by our Cavalry until the arrival of
reinforcements, they commenced their retrogade mo
tion, and at six o’clock were said to be in full retreat
towards their gunboats.
Subsequent Intelligence contradicted the report of
