We learn that Mcjok Alston, of General
Morgan’s command, is now in Riihmond on
official bnelnese. It could oot therefore ba«
him that our special McMinnrills dis
patch mentions as hawing captured a Yankee
wagon train between Lavergne and Nashville
on the dtblnet. The initials, ”R. A.,” were
not in tho dispatch, but were supplied by us
in hawing it set np. The nmme and rank cor
responded with that of onr friend, the Major?
and the deel was just such as he would de
light in, and is capable ef performing. Not
knowing thtt he was absent from the com
mand, and not hawing heard of any other of
ficer of that or a similar name in service with
Morgan, we naturally concluded it could be
none other than the gentleman whose name
heads these remarks, and who is so well and
favorably known in this city as a brave sol
dier and a moat'excellent cilisen.
This Indispensable article, from the energy
and capital of private individuals and compa

oud the Hospitals.
The celebrated Dr. Jno Bachman, of Charles
ton, recently passed through Atlanta on
nreflon from that city to carry supplies to tho
soldiers of South Carolina in the army ani
hospitals of the West, While here, he wrote
a long letter to the Courier, from which we
take the following: *.
We found the hospitals at Atlanta in excel
lent order, fully equal to those of Charleston
or Richmond. The Empire Hospital, under
the oare of Dr. Wm. P. Harden, has 249 pa
tients and one empty bed There .aro sixteen
hospitals at the Fair Ground oapable of ac
commodating 800 patients. Others are in
process of erection. Dr. Logan, the Surgeon.
General, was very attentive to us, and sent
one of his olerks with us to enable us to find
such patients as we were desirous of see
ing. - ,
We were shown the cooking establishment
for the inmates of the hospitals. They had
fine fat beef, poultry, eggs and every comlort
that oould be procured. The liberality of the
citisens enabled the surgeons to obtain delica
cies for the oonvalescont, which, together with
the hospital fund, was sufficient to support the
hospitals.
I will hdtip insert the tf eeult of information
in reference to the hospitals that was subse
quently obtained. Georgia is foil of Jiospi-

and Sey will put the enemy to flight and rout P?bs unless through monopoly
the rebellion. Mr. Trumbull is from Illinois, is
the personal friend and Senatorial month-piece
of Lincoln, and generally foreshadows hia views
in the Senate chamber. The Change in public
opinion not only in that State, but throughout
the entire Weet, alarms the Washington despots
for their own ea'ety. The slow strategy of
West Point givea them bnt little hope, while re
bellion is rearing its bead in their own camps,
while foreign governmehts are clamoring lor
a cessation of hostilities and for bread, andthe
fate ot the abolition party, lately so powerful for
mischief, hangs upon the uncertain achievement
of a grand, speedy and decisive victory. The
whole plan is, therefore, at once decided upon.
Spades and shovels must be thrown aside; for
tifications and trenches are too alow for the
emergency f “the power ot a hundred thousand
bajonett.” must be precipitated upon the rebels,
and thus a victory may ‘be forced which, if it
comes in rime, may yet save their sinking cause.
No sooner was this result arrived at by the con
clave in Washington than Trambnll announces
it in the Senate art! Greely posts back*o New
York, to proclaim it through the columns of the
Tribune. Nay, he goes even further into details
than Trumbull deemed it prartent or safe to do
in ibe Senate, for while the latter designedly
speaks only ol “fixed, eves and strong arms,”
and “a hundred 'hoosand bayonets,” the former
with the ferocity of ademon. Ida, the work
know that the eyes and arms will be those of
our slave population, in whake hands are to be
itlaeed the “hundred thousand bayonets.” This
■ the policy now boldly proclaimed; their last,
their only hope t of success; and to the accom
plishment of this fiendish purpose, they are now
straining all the resources ot the government,
and sending to the field every man they can
mu»>er. If they succeed, humanity shudders
of the Richmond papers, and one at the Cap-
i alvof each Slate. This resolution instructs-
the Committee on the Judiciary to inquire
into the propriety of so amending the present
law as to require the publication of all the
i BflWfcH iM "fidh^Miertrith-
out requiring that they shall be published at
the Seat of Government of each, State, and
the Committee report by bill or otherwise.—
The Richmond papers publish the laws so
carelessly and defectively as to be scarcely
readable. CHEROKEE.

A S ° 1 H?.-. W ** r «.‘, n . 8r *° Wives of Sol-
diers—A Military Execution.
A few weeks ago a soldier was tried and
convioted of the crime of desertion, and
sentenced to be shot. He was taken to the
plaoeof execution, and the preparations be
ing soon completed, at the word “fire?” he
fefl a bloody corpse at the hands of his
brave comrades. 1 was curious to know
why he de-erted, and I learned that his
wife was the cause. Be received a letter
from her full of complaints. Looking alone
upon the dark side of the picture, she had
magnified her troubles and sufferings, and
earnestly entreated her husband to return
home. He became restless, discontented
unhappy. He ceased to take any interest
in the discharge of bis military duties, and
thought only of how he could get home.—
His solemn oath never to desert troubled
him much, and he well knew the- crime of
desertion had become so frequent in the
army it would be punished with death. In
this state of perplexity he drew his wife’s
letter from his bosom and read it again, and
shutting hs eyes to the consequences, he
deserted! and for this crime he suffered a
bloody and ignominious death.
HU wife U now a widow. Tortured with
the thought that her husband waa brought
to an untimely end by her own imprudence,
she knows no peace of mind. True, she
had been deprived of many of the comforts
of life, and bad many sore trials, and anx
iously desired the return of her husband,
but now she feeU that she had exaggerated
her trials and sufferings, and she would
give the world to recall that fatal letter
which tempted her husband from hU duty.
But it U too late; it cannot be recalled, and
the grief and agony of thU heart-broken
woman are inexpressible. She inconsid
erately brought her husband to a dishonor
able death and refuses to be comforted.
Wives! mothers! beware what you write
to your sons and husbands in the army. A
thoughtless and imprudent letter may
to discontent, desertion and death. Our
soldiers have toiU and hardships and trials
enough of their o^n to bear, do not burden
them with the history of your troubles and
complaints. They cannot aid you; it does
no good; it may do much harm. When
you write say nothing, I beseech yon, which
may embitter their thoughts, weaken their
arms, depress their courage, or tempt them
from the path of patriotic duty to death an if
dishonor. Encourage them, cheer their
hearts, fire their souls, arouse their patri
otism, but do not disturb and harass their
minds with unavailing murmurs and com
plaints. To pur noble hearted women we
are indebted for the victories we have won,
and for the unconquerable strength of our
armies. They have made many sacrifices
and endured many hardships, but they are
ready to do and bear and suffer still more
in behalf of their bleeding country

the patriotism of our people more imperatively
invoked -to put forth every energy to meet the
advancing hosts; to dispute every step into the
heart of the conntry^and thwart the diabolical

have driven the inhuman despot.
The last few days the city has been alive
with rumors. One h«s it that there are two
Commissioners here.from Illinois, with im
portant dispatches to the government. This
rumor originated with a Banking House, at
whitdt two gentlemen, from that • State, had
called to purchase Confederate currency, and
who freely conversed with the officeis as to
their State and the condition of things at the
North generally. They had been State pris
oners at Camp Chase during the fall and win
ter, and succeeded in making their escape.—

As Banks once said when apotheosizing the

shall perish.” So the Western States now
proclaim to their brethren in the South, let
the New England Stales slide, so that our

Richmond, Feb. 4,1863
The prominent offioials of the government
no longer disguise the fact that the hour of
our real trial has now arrived. It is daily
pr jclaimed in Congress as every one can see
who has followed the debates, ot that body, in
both Houses, daring the past week. So far
ae the North is concerned, the logical results-
of the Emanc'pation Proclamation have been
reached, and the armies, of the Washington
tyrant, at egery point of attack, are nanded
over to the absolute control of the vilest Abo
litionists, nominally qualified fur the work of.
blood, that the Yankee Nation e raid supply.
When the atrocious order for servile insurrec
tion was first issued, it was also determ ned
to commit its execution to no other bands, and
the removal of McClellan was but a prelim
inary step to the series of changes which aie
now accomplished, and which alone eon id
gratify the anth rs of this fiendish and bloody
policy. Every General having any. preton
sions to decency or refinement has been driv
en from tbeir armies, and their places sop-
plied by fanatical enthusiasts, who really
have courage enough to ^sacrifice themselves,
like the deluded victims of the Jugger
naut.
Such.is the character of the men who have
now the control ofiall the armies of the North.
Whether they shall succeed in infusing, into
the heterogeneous massgs who compose these
armies, the same hell-born spirit of hato .'or
tho South and* its institutions remains to be'
seen. That they will leave nothing untried to
accomplish their wicked purposes that hate,
malice, revenge, desperation and their burn
ing passion for success can prompt, is appa
reut to all who are familiar with their ante
cedents. Vicksburg is again to be assailed by
an Abolition army above and below the city.
Wilmington -is doomed to go through a terrific
ordeal of fire by flood and field. Savannah
has twice gallanriy repulsed tbeir stealthy
advances, and “Fighting -Joe” is preparing
to precipitate his two hundred thousand
“laurelled veterans” upon the gallant army
that stands between them and Richmond.—
This ia their last, de-merate effort, and unless
we meet it as becomes freemen fighting for all
that is dear on earth, this war may go down
to our children. The man that stands aloof
tow while the great boon for whioh eo many
sacrifices have been made ia almost within
our grasp, will go do w n to posterity with the
Gal a. on his brow.
Senator Brown, of Miesi-sippi,-*has submit
ted .a resolution subjecting to immediate en
rollment in the briny all persons employed-in
the Executive department, of the Government,
within Conscript age, their places to be filled
by non-conscripts or wounded and disabled
soldiers. Vrora what I can hear, - the idea is
a . popular one, and may be matured into a
law. It is a tact that men of conscript age,
worth $200,000, have deceived the heads of
some of tho Bureaux, especially in the War
Department, by a made-np story of destitu
tion or expulsion by the enemy, and thus
succeeded in obtaining positions which were
sought and are held onjy as a protection
against conscription. Mr. Brown’s resolution
covers all such oases, besides rendering other
substantial aid to our means of defense.
Last jiight some thief broke into the Bureau
in which the Treasury Notes are -clipped, and
stole twelve thousand dollars in fives and tens
The stolen notes were signed, numbered and
ready for emission. There must be gross neg
ligence about thea#Treaaury Note Bureaux as
this is, by no means,, the first act of the kind
that has been committed. The watchman in
charge of that room was absent from bis post
last night, as 1 am informed. The laat time
auch a theft occurred, Mr. Memtqinger adopted
the most aigular method te prevent its recur
rence, namely, the summary dismissal oi every
gentleman, some dozen I believe, employed in
the room. The result was that the heinonsness
of the crime was soon overlooked and forgotten
in the general sympathy bestowed upon the un
fort nnate victims, many, perhaps all, of whom
were innocent.
There is in Richmond important news from
the Scufh Weat. Of this fact I give your read
ers tho most unequivocal assurance, and regret
that, notwithstanding all my efforts in quarters
wherel could, with propriety ask tor details, lam
.finable tobetnorespecibc. Of the fact itself, there
