RETREAT BUT IN CHAINS AND SLAVE
RY."—Patrick Henry in thi first Revolution.^
Rewards lor Butler’s Head.
We notice that two or three persona iu the
Confederate States, have offered large rewards
for the head of that vile brute, Haynau But
ler, now tvranising over the women of New
Orleans-some $10,000—and that some papers
are encouraging this. We regret to see it.
It would be a gratifying to us for some man,
actuated by a righteous indignation, to take
away the life of the savage—not for the hope
of pecuniary reward—not f*>r the sake of
making mor.ey; but in obedience to the in-
•itic-ts of patriotism. He deserves to be shot
upon sight, tho same as any viper or beast of
savago Jerocity, which is a common enemy to
the human race; and it is tho duty of every
man to kill him upon sight, tho same as be
would a rattle snake, or a wild beast that
would He in wait for and devour our children.
But those who have $10,000 to give for this
purpose, would bettor serve the country by
supplying the government with that amount,
or by raising and equipping a company to
fight against the hordes of the North. Re
member that Butler is but a single individu
al, and the taking of his life would not wea
ken the foe in the least. It can hardly be
said to ba truly courageous to oiler rewards
for the head of a man who is surrounded by
a guard night and day, and therefore can't be
approached by a man disposed to take hi#
life, while our country is in peril, and the
taking of the life of that one man would not
in the ieast contribute to the securing of our
independence.
Nashville.
By late arrivals from Nashville, we learn
that Andy Johnson is putting down the heel
of oppression upon our people, with a fear
ful tread. He has actually cut off supplies
of wa.cijc.ar;! gw ‘Sv people m the
eity, who refuse to take the oath of allegi
ance—nay, he refuses to allow any one to
uarry on any trade or business*or buy any
articles from the country necessary for the
sustenance of life, except to suoh as take
the oath of allegiance to the government of
the hated North. How long! Oh how long,
shall this cruelty be borne ! When will oar
legions he turned Ioobo against the vile rep
tile and his minions! May God speed the
day cf retribution; and may the direst ven
geance be meted out to the vile sooundrel,
and all who aid and abet him in bis work of
tyranny and death !
A Broom.
V/e acknowledge the receipt of a maguifl
cent Broom, with the following note aeoom
partying it:
A young lady of Gordon county, having
seen your statement that you had to use a
bush broom, has made and sends you this
one, hoping you will keep a clean office, as
well as publish a good paper.”
The fair, but unknown (to us) donor, has
our thanks for the splendid Broom. It shall
be Kept in our sanctum, and it shall be used,
Loo; for we like have a clo&n office. If the yo'g
lady will send us a half dozsn like it, we will
give her a good price for them ; and if she
will give us her name, we will try to send
her a beau in the person of the worthiest
young man we san find, (as soon as
young men come back from the war, w

Geu. Toombs’ Cotton Crop.
Some cf our eotemporaries in South West
ern Georgia, have been complaining that
Gen. Toombs has planted a larger cotion
crop than usual, while many farmers bad
planted none, and all, (except a very few,)
had greatly reduced the number of acres
usually planted by them. This evidence of
patriotism on the part of the cotton planters,
is oue of the most enccursging signs of the
times. A peo le who will make such sacri
fices can never he subdued. Geu. Toombs,
for some reason unknown to us, has declined
to observe this rule so nigh universal, and it
has given a good deal of dissatisfaction.
00 The papers have noticed it and condemned
4 W ! it very extensively—it may be, hastily—we
! cant say : and the Committee of Public
Safety in Culhbert, have taken the following
action:
W'hx&xas, authentic information has been
received that Gen. Robert Toombs of the C.
8. A. ; Col. A. P. Rood and others owning
large plantations on the Chattahoochee riv
er—influenced, as we believe, more by ava
rice than patriotism, hate planted unusually
large crops of cotton, thereby curtailing to
that extent, the provision crop necessary for
the support of our suffering country ; There
fore,
Resolved, That Gen. Robert Toombs, Col.
A. P. Rood, and all others who have followed
their pernicious example, be requested to
withdraw all their available negro labor from
the cultivation of their cotton crops, and
place it in charge of the Committee appoint-
ed to superintend the defence of the river.
Resolved, That although it. may not be re
garded as pertinent to objects for which this
meeting has assembled, yet we cannot with
hold the expression of our unqualified in
dignation towards those who h.ve recklessly
disregarded the wants and necessities of our
army—by planting more cotton than is sufli
eient for domestic use. Their purses may
be better filled—but we trust they will not
fail to receive the reward due their unpatri
otic conduct.
A similar Committee at Eufala, Ala., have
r.dopted the foregoing.
The only public notice which Gen. Toombs
baa taken of this matter, is the following
dispatch, which we take from the Columbus
Ttmes, and which appears to be in reply to
a demand from the Committee, for his hands
to work on the defences of the rivet :

[Signed] ROBERT TOOMBS.”
We have often urged upon the people to
plant no cotton, or, at least, very little. All
the journals in the country have done the
same. We have not Been or besrd of a sin
gle indivlduaWno matter what his HftaitiftP
*~_who advised any other course ; and but
few, very few, who have pursued any other.
Gen. Toombs iB one of those few. What his
reasons are we know not. If it is the hope
of gain—of making money out of his large
cotton erop, while every body else is refusing
to plant large crops, patriotically making
the sacrifice for the good of the country—it
is in the last degree reprehensible. Bat we
dont believe it. It is not characteristic of
the man. We have had an intimate personal
acquaintance with Gen. Toombs for a num
ber of years, and we never saw in him any
evidences of his being sordid or unpatriotic
We shall oome to no such unpleasant conclu
sion, till we have better evidence of it than
we now have.

THE CROPS—Vir.GINIA.N8—GOV. BROWN Q*
CON3CR1PTIQN.
Rohe, Ga., June 21, 1862.
Tho season, in this region, is most propi-
tions for gathering the wheat crop, which, I
am happy to learn, turns out better than our
planters anticipated several weeks ago. It
is now thought that a full half crop will be
made. The oat crop is a total failure—it
having been literally eaten up by the rust,
many of our farmers are ploughing up their
oat fields and planting the land in corn and
peas. With anything like a good season it
is not yet too late to make good crops of
corn, on ail such lands, and I hope this
coarse wil! be pursued, generally, through
out the State. 1 have visited, recently, va
rious parts of our couniy, and was gratified
to see the corn crop promising so well. If
no disaster occurs to blast the present flat
tering prospect, Cherokee Georgia will raise
corn enough to feed our entire army in the
field. Cotton, for the present is a defunct
institution—very little planted--enough, per
haps, to make seed for a crop next year,
should this most iniquitous war be closed
by that time. If not, we will continue to
plant corn and hoe potatoes until it does end.
If Yankeedoodledom, England and Fraooe
can do without cottofi, why not we?
A number of Virginians, from the invaded
district, have recenily visited this county
with the view of buying land and settling
among us. They ali seem to be very much
pleased with the country, and some of them
have already made investments. A few hun
dred good, scientific farmers, from the “ Old
Dominion, located iu this beautiful and fer
tile Cherokee region, would wake up these
old fogy natives, and by their example of
deep ploughing and thorough tillage, revo
lutionize the system of farming here, which
would very soon change the faoe of the
country, and make this the garden spot of
the South. We should, therefore, welcome
them with warm hearts and open arms.
Governor Brown’s ridiculous and almost
treasonable position, on the conscript ques*

few sympathisers iu this part of his Imperial

Manassas, Babtow County, Ga., \
June 14, lob-.. >
Thomas V. Meagher.
This gentleman was onoe revered wherev
er liberty was cherished. He has paid his
last debt fighting to force a cruel and urjust
despotism upon a bravo and free people.—
The Richmond Examiner says :
Among tho killed on the Yankee side, in
the battle of the Chickahominy, is the name
of Thoma3 Francis Meagher, the “much-leu
ded and highly-applauded" Irish patriot,
who did so much in New York to arouse the
spirit of his Irish brothers against ns. He
led the Sixty-ninth Erin regiment into th
fight as Manassas, and then ran away t
Washington, exclaiming that ‘‘the Southern
era had won their independence." Recover
ing from his fright, Col. Meagher was made
a Brigadier, and raised a brigade of his coun
trymen to slaughter Southerners, and led
them on to the Chickahominy to fall there
himseit.

The ladies are truly * ginstitution
The sufferings of our patriot soldiers arouse
»r their sympathies and tender feelings, for
whom they undergo fatigue and trouble,
soaroely to be expected of the softer sex.—
But when occasion makes it necessary, they
can show themselves made of sterner stuff
than aighs and tears. This was illustrated
by a party of ladies at Cass Depot, iu this
county, to-day. A gentleman of Mannassas
who now and then indulges in little specu
lations, had a few bales of cotton at the de
pot, a part of which the wives of some ab»
sent soldiers said they greatly needed. They
proposed to the owner to purchase what they
wanted, but as they did not wish so much as
a bag, he declined to let them have it. They
told him they would take it; and in compli
ance with promise thus made to him, they
went to the depot, oalled for the Agent as a
witness of their doings, and cut the rope
from one bale, took what they needed, and
marched very quietly home with it. I be
lieve they propose to pay the owner fair
compensation.
Bo you see some of the women of Bartow
are lent on having cotton. I do not write

the act, but merely to relate the circum

go, too, about the public debt, tne people
at home have been appalled, and the ene
mies of the country abroad have been re
joiced by certain sinister prophecies that, at
the end "of the present fiscal year (Jane 30),
the national debt would be from a lhousand
to twelve hundred millions; but it appears
that, on the 22d of May, the public debt was
but four hundred and eighty-one millions of
dollars, and on the 27th four hundred and
eighty-five millions of dollars, including
seventy millions of dollars left by the Bu
chanan administration. At this rate of in
crease the public debt will be on the 30th of
June, 1882, about five hundred and nineteen
million of dollars.
In the report of Secretary Chase ott the
finances, submitted to Congress in December
last, upon the subject of the public debt and
its probable increase, he presented the fol
lowing statement:
On the 1st July, 1860, the public
debt was - $61,769,703
On the 1st July, 1861, tne public
deb; was.... 90,567,828

debt will be -
Thus, in December last, in tne midst of the
gigantic operations against the rebellion,
with unforeseen contingencies arising almost

quired, the Secretary of the Treasury esti
mated within about one million and a half
what the debt would probably be on tne first
day of July ensuing. The actual figures, as
will be seen above, make the public debt, at
the present rate of increase, to July 1st

Chicago, May 15. —A speaial dispatch from
Cairo to the Tribune says—‘ Tho subjoined
circular explains itself.”
(Private and Confidential.)
Capitai C...3. A. Richmond, April 18.
Sir: It cannot be denied that the pros'
pecis of success for ih§ Southern Confeder
acy ate gloomy and foreboding on every hand.
Whether through lack of skill, or tne open
treachery of officers of our army and navy,
it matters not, we meet with disasters and
defeat. With a continuance of such results,
ere three months shall elapse and pass away,
our boasted Confederacy will exist only in
history.
The past shows that we need larger dis
plays of patriotism, military skill, personal
bravery, and a firm spirit of devotion to the
just oause in which we have enlisted. Un
less these requisites develop themselves to
a fighting extent, we fight in vain. Unie83
we have more clear indications that the great
heart of the people is with us, our efforts
wil be futile. The Government is impatient
to retrieve the disasters that have befallen
us, and that yet stare us iu the face on eve-,
ry hand, unless the people rally to its stan
dard.
McClellan is already moving on the Po
tomac. Hallek’s operaiions in the Southwest
are at every step successful against us ; the
Federal army and navy are already menac
ing the metropolis ot the Southwest and the
key of our granaries ; Florida is overrun by
Northern invaders, while, wherever we look
we gaze upon them, and they are advancing.
la this trying emergency, the Government
appeals to the people, lo the brav9 hearts
ana sturdy wills of the South. It crie.-q
Awakk ! I our hands have been put to the
plough ; will you now look back aud repent
your past act ? You have struck nobly for
indepeudenae, pledging your lives and for.
tunes to its procurement. Will you submit
quietly to the invasion and desolatiou of
your homes—the destruction or confiscation
of your property—the abandonment of your
Christian institutions ? Arise, and convince
the world that the boasted chivalry of the
South is more than a mere myth.
This appeal is made to the country, not
openly, for obvious reasons. We make the
appeal to the people through the Governors
of the States composing the Confederacy,
and the officewm fSnt, with
the urgent request that its spirit and intent,
if not its letter, be conveyed to every citi
zen of our struggling Republic.
First of all, we ask for material aid in
money, or such an cvuivalent therefor, ns
will enable us to maintain our army. Cloth
ing and provisions will be accepted as sub
stitutes lor money, when the latter cannot
be obtained.
Second, we need men. The ranks of our
army in the field are fast being thinned by
the casualties of battle, the sickness inci
dent to camp life, and the expiration of the
terms of enlistment. We cannot close our
eyes to the fact that the places are not filled
J, J *7-* rrc
the desire to help our cause by their willing
ness to tight its battles, and if need be, pour
out their bloed in its support.
Third. We need the enoouragement of the
people by a mere liberal display of patriot
ism than has yet been made. The tamo sub
mission yielded to the invader wherever he
appears is in striking contrast to the boast
we have hitherto heard of the readiness that
prevailed on every hand to welcome the
hirelings with bonfires composed of the prop
erty of the people. If our land is 10 be
overrun and our people subjected, let us be
our own conquers and leave a smouldering
waste to reward them for tneir toil and painB.
Bura every hamlet, village, and ciry. Give
the torch freely to your cotton and houses.
Let the products of your lives be laid waste.
Fly yourselves before the invaders where
tesisianee shall no longer avail. Thus, by
determination and spirit in the cause for
which we are all enlisted, you will give en
couragement to continue the struggle.—
Wherever the enemy gains a victory, let it
be a bootless one, so that the bands now led
on by the hope of plunder will be disaap-
pointed and discouraged, and we shall be
cheerred by the manifestations of patriot*
ism.
Once more we expect you to awake ! Shake
off the lethargy that hangs over you 1 Strike
for the freedom of yourselves and your fam-
lies, and for your homes. Strike promptly
and boldly, and our Confederacy may yet
be firmly established.
This is our last and only resource. Those
who receive this circular will also be com*
missioned as agents of the Government, to
advance its purposes as indicated, and^ full
letters of instruction will be furnished them.

RxiNroxcmxXTs for Jackson.—A despatch
received here from Richmond states that
Gen. Lawton has been ordered, with his brig
ade, to join Gen. J aokson on the Shenandoah
forthwith. He was to have left Richmond
Wednesday, and by this time he is deubtiess
in sight of the enemy. The brigade is 6,000

are to be tound in the Confederacy. The usu

he is not the sort of a man to give way to

Prisoners Released bt Jackson.—The rebel
General Jackson released, unconditionally,
Dr. Mitchell of the First Maryland, and Dr.
8toneof the Second Massachusetts regiments.
Upon the report cf this to Secretary Stanton,
he announced his intention to direct the un
conditional surrender of all rebel surgeons in

which was first broken by the rebel leders.

up the Tennesse river in an open boat or flat,
propelled by an engine taken from a eaw>
mill, and having a cannon placed at the bow.
The boat passed Guntersviile without stop
ping. There was at the time a Captain’s
company in Guntersviile, and a number of
Texan Rangers. The first named company
stationed themselves on the river bank above
and fised on the gunboat as it passed, killing
some say tea of the Yankees, and shooting
down their flag staff. The Yankees turned
their cannon upon the company, but without
effect, and soon aft«>r proceeded up the river.
