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 nies, is becoming abundant and comparative ly cheap, notwithstanding Lincoln’s block ade. Co: plloaeulorp— 1 Tfce Ladies of Allauto 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- UIlU would r^afrea.mp%9i.«e v a&^v -rtfc-ift excellent order.

It is neither crash out rebellion, egaintihej«*e!a.wtth toed eriiedient nor just that the public should thousand bayouets,’* ^ye no other means of knowing what,>ws 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.

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 [A*»W. S7DNEY ' at the cqntcmplation of what may follow; if they (sif, the United States, as we left them, is 81 At no period, therefore, of.this revolution is 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 measures to which desperation and revenge 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.— Thejfcbring, ij is trife f mwt onpoursging in telligence, especially from the only quarter from which we need care a fig about having a recognition of our independence, namely— the Government of the United States. This is the point irom which our independence muSt come before, tho. war can be finally Closed; and hence; we >ooir to all authentic intelligence from the.North with much more real interest than any-European government These geutiemen repn sent Indiana and-llli wv. iuoen ot* mnutaaoie demonstra tion . against the Washington government, which may be repressed until alter the ad journment of Congress, but cannot be delayed much Ibngcr. They speak of a Western Re public as of a thing already settled upon.— As Banks once said when apotheosizing the negro—*** Let the Union slide, so that slavery shall perish.” So the Western States now proclaim to their brethren in the South, let the New England Stales slide, so that our liberties .are-preserved. There is no question bnt that the Foote and Foster resolutions, re published in .the . New York Herald, have contributed to five the minds or Western men •pon the true remedy for their present op pression and their proape dive burdens. Hooker is now preparing bis army for an other ooafltqt with Gen. Lee, and will lose no timo Tn preliminaries. He is a West Point er of the class of 1837, was Aid-de-camp to Gen: Hamer in the Heximn war, during which he was successively Jjrevetei Captain, Major and Lieutenant Colone'. In 1858, he left-the army aad went to California, where he continued until the outbreak of the revo lution. He has been with the Army of the Potomac mostly since. He is, it is said, a fighting man of great dash, impetuous and impulsive. Hoi*the.veryr General to lead an army to a decisive victory or total destruc tion. Intereating Reading Matter on First The lower House of the Yankee Congress 4MP* Pji he 2^ Wkorfoigg the Secretary of the Treasury to borrow three hundred miilions dollara for the present fis cal year, and six hundred millions for, the next fiscal year, on six per cent. bondte, pay able after twenty years in coin; also, to issue four hundred millions of three years’ Treas ury Notes at six per cent, per annum, and, it the public exigencies require it, three hun dred millions Legal Tender Notes, similar to those now in circulation. This will give him a budget of seventeen hundred millions of doUan, with whioh the rebellion is to be crushed cut In the next three months. To guard n^ainsl a failure in their new pro gram ssi,they have actually dispatched se cret agents to France, sisking Napoleon’s me diation, after the first of May, on thr basi of a gradual emancipation and adjustment of boundaries.' Tbiq is Seward’s crafty, un : principled cunning to estrange France in the ovtat of wur refuaaL I apprehend; however, that there would be more than refusal, should such a contingency. Which is veTy unlikely, over arise. What it wonld be need not no be stated. Congress had r-een engaged, since my last, chiefly on .the Supreme Court, hill and tly Exemption Law, withoat arriving at any con clusion as to either. Daring the debate on the Exemption Law yesterday, Mr. Gartreli amended his amendment so as to read “ Pro vided further, That any person who has fur nished a substitute^ in accordance with or ders heretofore issued by the Secretary of War, who is a citizen of the Confederate States, and under the age of forty-five, shall he exempt until Congress shall doom -it ne cessary for the public safety’ to ca l them into the public service.” Mr. Russell of fered, as a substitute to Mr. Gartrell’s amend' ment, the following: “Provided, farther, That no person shall be unrolled who hah a substitute in the army, furnished in accord ance with orders heretofore ieened by the Secretary of War, unless said substitute has deserted, shall desert or otherwise become lia ble to ■military duty.

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 ia no donbt. A few days will dictose its nature. I saw General Price to-day, entering the President’s office.
