Mtori**. Sdito~e:
As the discover? of Jncslitiej ol Salt has
*>»eom«» an object of paramount importance,
J hare.with send you a brief account of the
mpaiwoiiti of O’.i o.*hn Lyon, about ihe
?3a? 1236, In Tenneiaeo.
H5a first attempt was by boring * well iu
urn bed of theOali Killer Rivsr, a tributary
»i the Cumberland, about four miles from
Sparta. After boring to the depth of three
hundred feet, they came to a vein of salt wa
ter two feet thick, which yielded one bushel
of salt to thirty gallons of waver; ;at the Sa
lines, New York it takes thirty-five; at Ab
ingdon, Virginia, twenty, and sea water of
ueorgia, three hundred and twenty gallons.)
A furnace was ere-ted, and from 20 to 40
bushels per day were made ior several weeks;
when the vast accumulation of oarbnrettad
hydrogen g&e dreve the tubing and pump*
out through the root, and continued to escape
in immense quantities tor several weeks, when
R became exhausted, and the pumps were put
w work, when lo ! the salt water had disap
pearan. -
The boring was again resume*, ««..i » t h60
•eat another yein was found of greater quan
tity and better quality. To prevent a recur
rent of so disastrous an accident, the colonel
bed the well enlarged from three inches to
eight Inches in diameter to the depth of SO
feet, and a cast iron cylinder inserted and
used in with great strength j the pumps were
rigged, and the work went on swimmingly
for a month, when the accumulated gas forced
the cy/indcr, pumps and house-roof out, and
oonticuod to rush out for a week, when the
•csetseer applied a torch, as he said U- burn
it out. The ignition had well high burned
nira and two n«gr>»es to death before they
could escape, and the uadul&ting flame as
onnded to the height of over one hundred
tex-t, 6ad from side te side of the river—ex
hibiting one of the most sublime and mafini-
o*ct spectacles in Nature. The light was so
brill,vat that the inhabitants of tiparts, could
read at night as readily as in day time—four
nmles off. This continued some ten days,
when <t exhausted, and upon trial the salt
water w&* gone.
These related difficulties foioed the parties
to try lower down the ri ver, where they found
tne salt water at the same depth, and with
the same disastrous results. Being ignorant
ol science tney abandoned the work altogeth
er! whereas that troublesome element has
since been converted into an active agent in
boiling the water, instead of wood, at the
great Kanawha eaiines, which are in the same
formation, and consequently accompanied by
this gas. As soon as the Yankees are driven
from Tennessee, (which I pray may be early
litis summer,) the government ought to have
these wells re-opened, or others sunk in the
same neighborhood, and supply this great
want of our people. We deem it to be the
duty <d ail government* to relieve the pree
sing wants of the people, whi* i* not only
natural, but without doing which there can

ARMY fOBBE!*POXI>E]VCE
Of the Sav-annah Rep&lican.
dan for ihb Mississippi, |
Corinth, May 26, 1862. j
This is the last letter 1 shill be aVe to
send you from this point. Gen. Beauregard
has issued an order, requiring ali newspaper
and other pub ic correspondents to retire
from the army. This step has been taken in
consequence of the alleged indiscretion of
one of the correspondents of the Memphis
Appeal, who writes over the signature of
“Sparta." No complaints have been made of
anything I have written, or of the letters of
other writers from the army. On the contra
ry, the letters of some of us have been re
ferred to frequently, by persons high in au
thority, in terms of warm commendation,
and information of interesting character has
been voluntarily imparted to us that it might
be laid before the public. And yet ail of ua
alike, the innocent as well as the guilty, are
made to suffer for the sins of one man.
It it believed by some that General Beaure
gard has been induced to is3ue this unjust
and tyrannical order by Gen. Bragg, the most
waspish officer in the army, cr by some one
of the swarm of gau iv butterflies who bask
in the sunlight oi his presence—many of
whom are volunteer aids or officers whoa8
merits have not been duly appreciated by
the independeut writers of the day. The
truth is, the characters to whom I allude are
the Lane of the army. There is hardly a
general officer in ine service who is not nur-
rounded by a multitude of volunteer aids,
with.wAip and spur, ^the latest style ol' ri-
ding.l who lollow in the train oi their chiefs
like the tail of a comet, and who, though or
namental, are seldom useful- For the most
part, they are young men who have Wealthy
parents, and who have not the patriotism to
enter the ranks and perform the duties .*! a
true man and a soldier They are pert, Inso
lent and impudent: they ride line horses
with gay trappings, use an immense amount
of gold lace, swear like a trooper, and ren
der themselves generailv disagreeable and
ridiculoua. This is true not only of volun
teer aids, but of many cifisers whose heads
have been turned by their sudden elevation,
and who think they are required to exercise
their power every hour iu the day, less soiue-
Borty oig«w£iLt *‘1012017 men .*f valor" they
are. These characters are generally known,
a the army, by the vulgar but expressive
name of “squirts."
Gen. Beauregard, nevertheless, is responsi
ble for the order to which I have .alluded,
and will so be held by the country and by
the historian.
The freedom of the pres*, though guaran
tied by the fundamental law of the isnd, ex
ists only iu name. The military authorities
hsv* for -r>aie time, claimed and, exercised
the right to inspect all telegraphic despatch-
s», aad to prohibit their transmission over
the wirss unless they were such as they saw
fit to approve Every telegram I have sent
you aine6 my return to this place, had first
to be submitted to the Adjutant General,
without Whose approval the operators dare
not a*nd it. Not content with this imitation
of the Lincoln government, they now issue a
peremptory order, completely dosing the
door against ail kn iwledge of the operations
of the army, and in effect destroying the
newspaper press oi' the country. Will the
people Bubmit to this unwarranted stretch of
power? Ought they to submit to it ?
A few short mouths ago Gens. Beauregard
and Bragg were condemning the Northern
despotism for the very thing they are now
doing. The Federal Government was guilty
of the outrage of searching the house of the
citizen without due process of law, suspend
ing the writ of Habeas Corpus, seizing private
property, destroying the liberty of tbe citi-
■sn, and exercising a surveillanca over the
Press, which amounted to a virtual denial of
all freedom of thought and speech. The
military authorities of the Confederate States
are following fast in the footsteps of the in
famous tyranny that lords it over an enslav
ed people beyondthe Potomac, and that now
seeks io subjugate us to its ruinous rule. Wc
had hoped it wouldd never be said of us, as
it h*9 been of our enemies, that freedom was
incompatible with success, and that to
achieve i-ur liberties, * e must first become
slaves.
The complaint against the correspondent of
the Appeal relate to a telegram which he sent
te that paper. Beto.*r u,e telegram was sent,
it was submitted to die acting Adjuiant-Gen-
erai ol tne army, and by him sppri>v*:d. If
blame attaches to any <.>ue, therefore, it ihe
Adjutant, whose duty it waa to expunge all
news c»f a contraband ebrrae'ev.
1 *m giad lu say tbs order of expulsion is
universally condemned by the army. I have
not met with » single individual, officer or
soldier, outside of the “charmed circle” al
luded to. who approves of the pr*ceediug.—
It is everywhere looked upon as a blunder,
which, like Banqno’s ghost, will return in
life and a history (j plauge the authors of
it
Yi hen 1 came i-* c iUlh, tbs. first thing
1 did wss t-> call upon the Adjutant-General
of the army, who gave me permission to vis
it the camps sad to puss .a and cut of our
lines without let or hindrance. ; expressed
* *e*:re to be placed upon a m .Ttry looting,
to be allowed access to such orders and de-
the army transgresses any of the rules adop
ted tor its government, it is proper that he
should be punished 1 but there is no reason
why the innocent should be m&ae to suffer,
and especially the people who have been lav
ish of their means and their bleed in support
of oar cause. This war is the people’s war.
Their sons and brothers make up the army,
and their means, and theirs alone, support
and maintain it. And shall they not be al- 1
lowed to know anything that is transpiring i
within that army? When their sons are j
maimed or slain in battle, shall thev be de- I
Died the poor privilege of seeing a list of th*
killed and wounded? Is the army to be a
sealed book to the country? Even in de
spotic France and monarchial England, lit©
rary men have been encouraged to accompa
ny their armies, and to writ# freely of their
movements; but it has been reserved for free
(ii America alone to plaoe a muzzle upon the
Press.
Personally, i care nothing for the order.
On the contrary, I am glad of an opportu
nity to return to my home in dear old Geor
gia. Bat I do regret its promulnation on
account of the army, and the bleeding hearts
at home, and General Beauregard himself,
whom I have supported and defended for the
la-t twelve month with whatsoever ability I
possessed, and that, too, at times when I be
lieved his course at least questionable.
Without the aid of the women, the Pulpit
and the Press, the revolution in which we
are engaged would long ere this have proved
a lamentable failure. I, who have done least
of all the writers from the army, can say
this without presumption. This fact is pat
ent to all the world, except the arrogant and
silly officials in the civil and military service
of the Goveruuieni. And yet a “puff” as
long as your finger would purchase from
many of them permission to do and say al
most what you please.
The truih is, a blunder was committed at
Corunu un Thursday last, when the army
marched out to attack the enemy, without
having firsi made proper reconnoissances.—
The movement was a failure, and It is now
feared that the lime has passed for attaching
the euerny, whose position has been rendered
next io impregnable. The obnoxious tele
gram iu ihe Memphis Appeal did not reach
here until after the enemy had been made
aware of it. Any attempt, therefore, to sad
dle any part of the blame upon the corres
pondent in question is both UDjust and di*
engenous. A scape goat is wanted, howev-*
er, and this writer has answered the ocoav
sion. Unfortunately, General Hslleok does
not look to th a Confederate press for his in
formation of our movements. Spies, dressed
in the garb 01 oititens, enter and leave our
lines without much difficulty, and desertions
from the twelvemonths’ regiments from the
disaffected portions of Tennessee, are not
unfrequent. In this way Halleck receives
almost a daily report of our movements.
1 have written thus ptfi Ik .J f S any
want of respect for Gen. Beauregard, whom
I esicem as one of the most l iyai and un
selfish men of auy country or .tge, bat in
vindication of she freedom ot tno Press, and
of the rights and respectability of literary
men everywhere.
There is but little to oonimnnicate iu re*
gard Io the positiou of affairs here. The
Federal* are fast closing around us. It is
reported, by an intelligent scout, that they
have planted one of their heavy ssige guns
just across a swamp, aDd within one mil*
and a half of our work. Otheis will, doubt
less, be got into position soon. Indeed, it is
probable they will begin the work of shell 1 '
ing our camps before this week is out. They
have also erected very strong defensive
works, to guard against an attack by us.—
We must, therefore, go out and fight them in
thier own strong positions, or submit be shelled
in ours, or prepare to retire from Corinth. No
other alternative is left us. P. W. A.
