ATLANTA, GEORGIA:
FRIDAY, AUGUST 22, 18C2.
IRGLST DULY ClHlULATiuA IS THE STATE,
Geo. N. SanderB has gene to Europe
to execute a contract for the Government tor
the delivery of a number of iron-clad war
steamers. Air. Qande~a Las two eons in out

aelf at Fort Eonelson and at Shiloh, and has
since been paomoted to a Lieutenancy, lhe
other, Major Reid SaDdcrs, IJrig&de Quarter
master on General Ilawe’s Btafl. They aro
both most gallant and chivalrous young men.
and have f ugbt their way up from the rani s.
Vve And the above going the rounds of the
pres* So far as Mr. Sanders’ sot3 being in
the array is coricernf d, wo have no doubt it is
true. It is very much to their credit, and
something of which their father may ju3tiy be
proud—Ju3t tho same as it is creditable and a
matter of just pride in the case of ten3 of
thousands of ether fathers whoso sons are in
the army, or have spilled thoir blood in ,he
ranks.
But that the Government has commissioned
Air |Saudere to go to Europe to contract for the
making and delivery of a number of iron-clad
war vessels, wo feel sure is not true. We doubt
if the government has made any effort to pro
cure iron-clad war vessels from Europe, and
doubt if the vessel? could be had, were the
government to try.
But if they could be hai, and the govern
ment had made the effort, we should think
some man better qualified than Mr. Sanders,
would be commissioned to eseouie tbs contract.
The Government ought to select for such an
important commission, tho best naval engineer
or constructor in the Confederacy. Mr. San
ders is not, in our opinion, qualified to be en
trusted with such an important matter, as we
suppose he could not tell a well constructed
engine from a sorry one.
When the Government sends abroad an agent
to buy a navy, it will not bs apt to have the
matter heralded abroad as this is. We are as
tonished at the verdancy of editors who circu
late such paragraphs
Air. Sanders is well known to the public—
especially among newspaper readers and edi
tors, and all who know him, know that he is
not a man of sufficient financial habits to be
charged with such on important commission.
We make no imputations against hi3 charac-
ui or standing as a man; but it is notorious
that most other men car go into any market
and spend $500 to better advantage than Mr.
CaT..Kr= codia
We don’t understand row such paragraphs
as ibis gets Into the papers, nor bow it has been
circulated by men— editors—who ought to have
judgment and informcMcn enough to pronounce
u preposterous.

Rev. J. C. Graubery.
Ttiis eminent Eiviue, Chaplain to the ilth
Virginia regiment, was wounded and taken
prisoner in tbs lute battles before Richmond.
We knew him well when he was pastor of the
Southern Mcthcdist Church in Washington
City. He is a man cf fiuishsd education, uu-
asuai native genius, and great eloquence and
power as a preacher. He is one of the most
useful and efficient pastors we ever knew. In
wcmmon with ail his friends, we rejoice at bis
safe return from the clutches of the enemies of
his country.
Tho test number of tho Ricmuond Christian
Advocate contains the following:
Bit, J. C. Gbasbebt.—Our readers will re
joice to learn that our esteemed brother Grau-
bery, about whose safety so much anxiety was
teit, bus returned from captivity, and i8 in
good health. He paid us a visit a few days
ago, and entertained us with interesting ac
counts of his involuntary trip to Yankeedom.
His wound ha3 left an honorable scar of con
siderable dimensions immediately over the
right aye. AVe regTet to say that the sight of
his eye hes been so much affected by the blow
that he evens fears he may lose it entirely.—
The Riohmond Enquirer speaks in the follow
ing language ot deserved compliment of him
as Chaplain of the 11th regiment:
“ Mr. Graubcry is one of those chaplains
who stick olosest to their men when the dan
ger Is greatest—always going into the battle
to enoourage and comfort and assist. Distin
guished at once for genius and education, and
for an unblenching courage, combined with
gentleness ond modesty, he is the idol of his
regiment, as well ns tne centre cf a host cf
admiring friends, who will be greatly grati
fied to hear of his safe return.”
[COMMUNICATED-]
Next Winter.
* lhe period for which Lincoln has called cm
his new levies—the last 300,000 i3 signifi
cant. They are to be enlisted lor nine months.
S This Indicates a desperate struggle next win-
! ter • and where will It be ? Probably on our
l coast. The preliminary work was done cy tbe
i enemv last fall. With tbe exception of Charles
ton, tfavannab and Mobile, they have now
possession of almost our entire coast. During
ibis season they have been building sea-going
i vessels as strong as the Monitor. The inten-
! tion i? obvious. They are, no doubt, designed
for ihe capture of the cities mentioned. Sho’d
they be successful or not in these designs, ev
erything indicates that very large forces will
be landed at s >me point on the coast A por
tion of this force will likely be negro regi
ments, dressed in gaudy uuif&rms, kc.
This force will attempt to penetrate the cot
ton region, with a purpose so obvious that it
is unnecessary to mention it. Should such a
column of the enemy, composed of such ma
terial, succeed in entering the cotton country,
tbe consequences will be disastrous. Some
persons may sneer at these suggestion as truit-
less apprehensions. But let them reflect on a
single point: Ad that the enemy did last fall
and winter, wa3 evident preparation, and
nothing more. When Northern officials were
talking of finishing tbe war in 90^days They
know it was an impossibility. They talked
thus to blind men on the other 6ide of the At
lantic, and to amuse the simple minded at
home. Meanwhile their work cf preparation
for another year wa3 industriously prosecuted.
They answered their purpose. They secured
and held tbe coast, and with a small force of
their own kept a large Confederate force idle.
As soon as cool weather begins, they will be
ready to prosecute their wicked schemes to
great advantage.
The character of the war is changing, lhe
“ black flag ” will be more-than talked about.
Of congenial color, it will be flaunted in the
face of the black auxiliaries of Lincoln. Woe
to them!
The North has learned that it cannot subju
gate us. It resolves to torment us. It seeks
to whet the knife, to kindle tho torch, to le
galise rapine, rape and revenge; to make wo
men and children insecure around the domes
tic hearth, apprehending dangers worse than
death; to feed, sharpen, inflame and direct
the passions of a peaceful race against these
whom they previously have obeyed and loved.
They will exterminate the one race, in order
that it may become, in the proce33 of annihi
lation, the instrument of their revenge upon
tbe other.
A large column of the enemy must never be
permitted to penetrate the interior. If they
do, we will eventually drive them back, but at
a cost at which humanity shudders. We must
prevent their entrance. How ? By bringing
every available man, from fifty years down
wards, into the army.
Congress will probably call cut all able
bodied men from 85 to 45 years of age Let
us hope that they will carry it to fifty This
will be done, probably, by conscription The
writer has expressed "himself unequivocally in
opposition to this form of enlistment, not sc
much against the principle Itself, as its in
fringement upon State sovereignty. But this
mode has been adopted. It is beyond change
Whatever the form, we must have the men, and
they must be ready bv the next autumn.
In this connection i will be pardoned for re-
'errine to a former communication, in which
ms lorutroi enrnrttuwnr wbv m,a
the conduct of the war by our cabinet at Rich
mond, was plainly criticised by the writer.—
This communication, I regret to learn, was
misunderstood. Dissatisfaction w T ith incom-
peteney and blundering, wag construed into
unfaithfulness to the country. It I am part
owner of a vossel, and see breakers ahead, and
know there is a man at the helm who cannot
even box the compass ; if I insist that tho cap-
ta n shall put a man in his place that can man
age the helm and save the ship, am I therefore
false to my co-owners ? The cases are parallel.
The objectionable sentiments, I understand,
were embodied in the following sentence:
“We must have new men or new measures.”—
Since that sentence was written, ws have had
“new measures,” and the cause of censure or
complaint is removed. Is it asked what new
measures ? In general, I answer, a revivifica
tion cf the slumbering energy of the govern
ment, exemplified in the dashing reconnoisance
of Stuart, the brilliant achievements of Mor
gan and Forrest, the masterly strategy of Lee,
the unequalled “ coups ” of the indomitable
Johnston, the “ onward” significance of the
President's last proclamation, the removal of
incapable officers, the promotion of those who
kuow bow to win battles, the triumphant de
fense of James Island and Vicksburg. These
‘new measures,” as compared with the

history of the preceding six months. They
aro just caus8 of gratuiation. So much by
way of explanation — on explanation due by
the writer to himself and the public. To re
turn to tbe subject from which this has been a
digression:
We must have men enough, in every way in
which they can be obtained, to meet and over
come the enemy on our coast this winter. The
cotton States do net have a just sense of their
peril. We are thinking of Tennessee, Ken
tucky and Virginia. They aie indeed the
points of present interest. They will cease to
be when the eummer campaign is ended. The
enemy will then seek to hold our armies in
check on the Northern border, while he pours
an overwhelming and mongrel force upon cur
sea coast.
In addition to the force which cur govern
ment will call out, l?t the “Silver Greys” be
ready. If our hands do shake with age, per
haps we may use Judge Longstreet's “double
wabble” with satisfactory results
It is the design of this communication to
urge all these whom the lav.- cannot compel to
enter the service, to sc-t their houses in order,
so that they may be ready when an emergency
occurs. There are men enough in Georgia,
over forty-five to make an effective force. Let
its, therefore, lay all our plans and so arrange
our business that we may leave at a moment’s
notice, to be gone several months with as lit
tle detriment to our families as possible. If I
am right as to the future policy of the North,
it will be better to leave cur families unpro
tected for a time, if by remaining with them
we allow the enemy to penetrate the interior.
After that, our protection may be impractica
ble or valueless.
The fall, winter, and spring campaigns will
probably practically settle this content. The
next winter will determine whether the enemy
can or cannot use their proposed auxiliaries.
If they fail in this, the war will afterwards be
a contest for boundaries, and will be carried
on with comparatively limited armies.
, Are these views correct ? Then let us pre
pare for the onset. Let everything be ready.
We shall have timely notice. When it comes,
let the whole male population, besides those al
ready in the army, swarm to the coast, ready
in guerilla bands to arrest the advance of the
invader. Repel him, thee, and we are safe—
suffer him to enter, and imagination cannot
paint the consequences

Morgan's Expedition.
Hakisvillt, Tenn, Aug- 13.
Dear Sccrry: I fulfill my promise by giving
you the earliest news from Col. Morgan’s com
mand, and right glad I am to be able tc chron
icle another brilliant bucccss- . ...
We left Sparta last Saturday, arrived at the
Cumberland river Alonday morning, where
Col. Morgan learned that Col. Boone, with 4
companies of his regiment (28th Ky. ; w as I®®:
camped at Gallatin It was at ones decided
to attack them, and the column took up the
lice of march auJ arrive! in sight of Gallatin
yesterday morning at daylight, TTitbout the
enemy suspecting our presence. Learning
that Col. Boone, like a sensible man; preferred
lodging at the Hotel with his wife, Capt Jo,
Desha with a detachment cf JO men were or
dered to inform him cf our approach, which
they succeeded in the most approved style.--
As soon &3 Col. Eocne was made acquainted
with the condition of affairs, he surrendered
himself with Lis command as prisoners of war
There was no fight—not a gun was fired.
Learning that a detachment cf his force, with
about 1U0 negroes, were engaged in building a
fort at the tunnel between Gallatin and Bowl
ing Green, a detachment cf men, under Major
Wash Morgan, was ordered there- _ they suc
ceeded in routing the force, capturing some oil
nriseners, and destroying both fort and tunnel
—the latter cf the utmost importance tc the
enemy, as it will require several months to
reopen it; about Io0 yards cf iressel work was
also destroyed near tbe tunnel. Lieut. Rogers,
with a detachment of 26 men, were ordered to
destroy the bridge between Gallatin and Nash
ville, which they succeeded in doing.
The train from Louisville arrived shortly af
ter we had taken possession of the town, and
we were agreeably surprised to rec-t-ive from
tho enemy a most desirable present in the
shape cf 80 fine horses, 1,-500 sacks of oats
and corn, and 550 boxes of Crackers, all of
which we appropriated—burning that which
we were unable to use. The locomotive, a
very fine one, and about 50 cars, were also
destroyed, leaving a space of 20 miles between
the two ends of the road without cars or en
gine. Thus we spent the day as Morgan’s
men most delight to do—surprising an enemy
before breakfast to give them an appetite, and
then receiving the hospitalities of the place,
which I can assure you wer9 tendered with a
heartiness of welcome truly refreshing.
The prisoners, in all about 200 men, were
paroled and their arms, which were cf the
most improved kind, distributed to the newly
organized companies .of the command At
niicht the command fell back to this place (lo
miles from Gallatin), and to-day we have en
joyed a delightful rest much needed by both
men and horses, whilst the people of old Sum
ner—old and young, male and female—have
been vicing with each other in acts of kind
ness to us. The people are all true to the South,
and never will submit to the Lincoln Govern
ment, They wait anxiously for the time when
the theivingrascal3 will have been driven from
the State To-night we were reinforced by a
fine company from Warren county, Kentucky,
on their way South, having left their homes
to avoid being pressed into the Lincoln army.
For the gratification of Col. Beilis Fey ton’s
friends in £?.3t Tennessee, I take pleasure in
saying that he utterly repudiates the Lincoln
Government, and that his sympathies are with
the South. • Eis name to the call for a Union
meeting, published seme months agn in tha

Soldiei i of the Army cf the Q~-j •
Heroic Incident in New Orleans,
The.Mobile Register says: We are indebted
to high authority for the fact of the following
occurrence in New Orleans, intelligence cf
which reached the city Friday. Mrs. H. M.
Hyame, wife of the Lieutenant-Governor of
the State, passed on tbe street a number cf
Yankee officers sitting in a doorway as she
went by. One of them arose and followed her
a few steps, and, arresting her progress by
placing himself in front of her, told her that
she had omitted to bow in parsing;. She at
tempts tc avoid the ruffian, when he repeated
his j\ .carte, a Bd asked her if she had not read
Gen. 1 Gera “Order No- 28“ with reference
to the treatment of Union officers and soldiers
wi»h re?p cf.- Endeavoring to pass the fellow,
he nrew L3 arm roue 1 the lady’s waist, and
pressed his foul li; e upon her face. As the
villain reLa:ed her from his embrace, the
Southern lady coolly drew a pistol and shot
him through the body, so that he fell dead at
her feet in the insolent flush cf his cowardly
triumph over the insulted virtue cf a feeble
and unprotected woman.
Another of the officers Immediately arose
and approaching the noble and courageous lady
took her by the arm and told her, so that the
other Federals could hear, that she mnst ac
company him before Gen, Butler, He immedi
ately placed her in a cab and drove away—but-
not to the Beast’s quarters. He directed, tbe
cab out of the city and through the line cf
sentries—and further on still, until beyond the
reach of the tyrant’s outposts. The act of the
heroine had made a hero of the witness. He
told her that he considered her act justifiable
and noble, and that in a moment h8 had deter
mined that she should not be sacrificed to But
ler’s vengeance, and adopted the expedient by
which he had rescued her. He continued tc
escort her on her journey through the country
until they arrived in the Southern lines at
Camp Mccre, when he delivered himself up to
tho Confederate authorities, to be d^alf with as
a prisoner or otherwise.
So ends this heroic and dramatic incident of
the war, Mrs. Hyenas has set a lofty example
forjdouthern women, and the gallant gentleman
who delivered her has shamed its army and
the whole North. VVe trust he has renounced
forever the service cf the oppressors, and that
a rank equivalent to his deserts may reward
him in ours.
^The “ Almighty Doilae.’The New York
Tribune publishes a letter from M. trench, a
Yankee Chaplain, at St, Simon's, on the Geor
gia coast, in which the following paragraph
occurs. Anybody could fell it was written by
a “blue belly”;
In the evening, we had the pleasure of uni
ting in marriage a very interesting couple cf
negroes in Mr. T. B- King’s mansion. I do
not think it was ever graced with a marriage
more pleasing in the sight of the Lord. The
parties were very tastefully attired, es also
were their attendants. The company was “se
lect.” The Navy was duly represented. At
the close a marriage fee wa3 passed into cur
hands—the most precious one we ever received,
and, considering the source, we thought the
largest. It was one dollar. The marriage
question is to be one of great perplexity here
after. Ihe slaveholders, generally, regarded
the salt of ^either party as a dissolution of the
relation. v»e now find very many with two

War.
Memphis, July 30.
The Bulletin cf this morning has the follow
ing from authentic sources:
Among other Interesting items as te the pro
ceedings of the subjects discussed at two con
ferences of all the principal rebel military
leaders, held in Richmond ou the 4th and 5th
insts,, it is understood that they came to the
conclusion that they mu3t lose no mere terri
tory.
Tbs defensive policy was strongly attacked,
and bith Lee and Beauregard advised the in
vasion cf the T7orth from three points, namely
From Cumberland or Williamport into Penn
sylvania; from Louisville end Cincinnati into
Indiana and Ohio, and from Paducah and Cai
ro into Illinois. It is alleged that the follow
ing plan of operations for the remainder of the
summer campaign was agreed upon:
First. The immediate obstruction cf the
James river, so as to make it impossible for
McClellan to use it as a means for communica
tion with the Government, and for the trans
portation of rc-inforcemcnta and army sup
plies.
Second. The occupation cf Williamsburg,
Torktcws and the entire Peninsula.
Third The recovery cf tho whole of the ter
ritory of Virginia and the suppression of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad.
Fourth. The recovery cf New Orleans, Mem
phis, and the Mississippi river, and the expul
sion cf the Federal troop3 from Tennessee and
Kentucky. When these objects have been ac
complished, Lee and Beauregard’s plan was
proposed.
Fifth To make the fotomac and Ohio rivers
at once their bases of operations and frontier
line, and to transfer the seat cf war from Vir
ginia to Maryland.
Sixth To hurl upon Washington from Rich
mond a column cf 200,000 troops By the
capture cf that city, the liberation of Balu-
more, and the invasion of the North at the
three points named above, becoming in turn
the invaders, they hope to make it necessary
