And should circum stances renderJt neoeesary nothing would af ford him higher satisfaction than a renewal of the intercourse. 3. S. CABDOZO. Atlanta, April 1,1868 From the foregoing card it will be seen that Mr. Cabdoio, whose eble productions have for somes time past rendered peculiarly attractive iho edl* torial columna of tbe Southehm Confederacy, retires to occupy a new field of labor to which he has been called. He goea to Mobile to take charge, as Editor-in-Cboif, of a new monthly Magazine to be published in that city, by the Urge, wealthy, end enterprising publishing house, of S. H. Goetzel &. Co. Mr. Cabdozo’s association with us has been of'the most agreeable character, and we regret ittt lor the present, we shall be deprived of our very pleasant association with him, as well as his able assistance in our editoiial department.— We hope his dmiee in hia new field.of labor will allow him stiil to cou'ribnte to oar colamns. His long eiperienco as an editor, his mind richly stored with the treasures of useful knowl edge, bis unceasing labors and gentlemanly de portment, peculiarly fit him for the discharge of the duties he will assume in Mobile; and the Messrs. Goetzel & Co. could not have secured tbe services of a man more suitable or better qualified. Our best wishes go with him, and we commend him moat cordially a the kind re gards of tbe good people of Mobile. Krom Texas.

On Wedntaday last, twenty-one vessels, four of whioh was evidently turret- ed iron clads, and the rest gunboats or trans- K ris, appeared in the North Ediato River. oee vessels could be plainly seen by our piokets at White Point, and the transports ieetned to be without any considerable num ber of troops on board. On Thursday only fourteen steamers remained. Official intelligence was received on Satur day that a gunboat and three transports had approached Cole’s Island, at the meuth of the Stono, and landed a small force, supposed not to exceed two hundred men. Nothing definite was ascertained as to their obi ect, bat is generally believed to have been a re connaissance, preliminary to more imposing movements. The blooleading fleet on Saturday number- ed twenty vessels. A steamer flying the ■ Subscribe to the Confederacy. Gold ns the Standard—The Treasury Sole* with Bostic Rates at Onrreney. ■Wo htve received inquiries of the Mlow'rog tenor, with a leqacit tb' furnish *ati*f*elory replies—if in onrpower: 1. When the value of gold fluctuates, by what stan- iard it it known f How it it proven that the gold and not the standard hot increased or decreased in value? 2. By whnt meant it it pottlble that two different paper currencies like the Confederate Treasury notes and Bonk notes, con be mode to circulate together, end occupy toe same field of circulation, without either displacing the other? The error most usually found to underlie the con clusions of most observers, it that gold nnd silver are invariable standards of value, from tbe fact that Government has pfoocU a stamp on them when coined into money, which does no more and cap do no more than verify the quantity of pore metal in each piece or coin. These metals are the wort invariable in value of any substances yet discovered which hav.e been made the objects of commerce. Gold and sil ver making, therefore, tbe nearest approach to wbat is called a standard of value—for both are legally standards in the Confederacy—are subject, at all timet, te the influence of the law of demand and sup ply. They are more Hoder the influence ol this law during a suspension of specie payments than at other times, because more subject then to a-variety of causes which produce what may be called an artificial demand. Thus during a su-pension of specie pay ments a large number of persons hoard, especially during war. If foreign commerce is. interrupted by blockade, or internal trade by armies or difficulties oj transportation, impeding the free circulation of commodities, as. paper money is of limited and local credit, even occasionally in the same State or district of country—specie becomes in demand to pay debts or make purchases at a distance, from the place where such money is issued. All these circumstances and others extend the demand for gold and silver coin, arising exclusively from the tutpeniion of tpecit payments. Gold and silver will fluctuate in value even during payments in specie, but the limits o f such fluctuation are very narrow. Should the balance of debt against a country so advance tlia rates of exchange as to make it more advantageous, to remit payment in specie, it canndt advance beyond the point which would mako it still more advantageous, unlttt. under particular circumstances, to export commodities and convert those commodities into specie to discharge the debt. Those circumstances are the necessity of providing specie at times for the payment of troops. or to pur chase breadstuff's, in case of the failure'of the har vest, there not being time to make a double ex change— first, Jbe purchase of commodities for ex portation and then their sale in a foreign market lor specie. But in the ordinary transactions of com merce, this indirect operation is preferred to paying so high a price for specie as to render payment of s foreign debt too onerous. It is a question of compara tive expense, and hence the limit. As, therefore, there it alimit.to the rise in foreign exchange, which is the expense (freight and insurance) of specie, in transporting it from tho debtor to the. creditor coun try, so there Is a limit to the advance of specie for the payment of a foreign debt, in th* export of com modities. There is a limit also to the power of with drawing c'in from the banks, to discharge commer-* cial indebtedness abroad, for unless tbe currenoy is excessive and redundant, there is a checkin the public demand for circulating medium that precludes tbe possibility of collecting a number of bank notes to be exchanged for specie, in any but a limited de gree. .This is exclusive, of course, of those periods in which panics take place, and a run is made <n the Banks. Such periods are exceptional. There is another cause of fluctuation in the value of gold and silver, which is tho increased or diminish ed coat of production, but it nevrr operates except gradually, and only after long Intervals. The effect Is indeed so gradual and imperceptible that it need not concern the legislator. It shows itself, when it occurs, in a change in the relative value of gold and silver. If a.country has a double standard, both gold and silver, as we have, the relative legal value has to be adjusted to the relative market-value. At one period of out history we lost nearly all our gold by undervaluing it. At anotner period we lost nearly all our silver by undervaluing that. These are the prin ciples most material to know applicable to the sub ject. While all values are estimated in paper money, ineluding gold and silver, it is next to an absurdity to speak of a standard of value.' In relation to tho other branch of Inquiry: By what means Is it possiftethat two different currencies of paper, like the Confederate Treasury notes and Bank notes, can bo made to circxlate together, and oceupy tho field of circulation without cither displacing the other i the answer will Uop.-n I we think on tbe condnet pursued by the Banks when tho war is over and the large public expenditure ceases. There are two courses for tho Banks to pursue. 1. Tb refuse to re ceive Trcaisury notes on deposit and in payment of dues to them; or, 2. To receive them to a certain ex lent,and thus divide the circulation with the Confed eracy. If tho Banks refuse to receive those notes on' deposit and in payment, should they circulate at all it wil< beat a diminished valne or discount,inprer portion to their excess beyond tho demand for them. If receivable for taxes and duties, it will assist to sus tain their value, particularly at those periods in which the taxes and duties are payable. It will, how ever,-be an irregular demand. • The other course is probably the one that will be adopted by the Banks. They perhaps will divide the escalation with the Confederacy, on the understand ing that the latter will be limited. If such should b, the policy of the strong Banks, it will drive tc the wall the weak Banks , or those who rely exclusively for their profits on their .circulation. The more pow erful Banks, or those located in our large commercial cities, will not be indisposed to pursue this course, as tbe Banks In .the interior Interfere with their gains. The point in greatevt doubt is the quantity ef paper currency that business and prices will absorb. Much will depend on the future price* of our great staple When the aggregate value of onr crop of cotton was two hundred millions of dollars, the amount of Bank notes in circulation in the eleven Confederate States* was ia round numbers one hundred million of dollars. It will depend, therefore, 'on the ftitare price of this staple, in a great degree, what with be the entire volnme of onr paper currency, supposing business to be condnctcd on its firmer scale. It is impracticable to adjust beforehand the quantity of the circulating medium to the wants of society. It will fluctuate with those wants. If we (oppose that cotton should settle down to the price of fifteen cents per pound, at the end of two years, and tbe average crop to be 4,000,000 bales, worth three hundred millions of dol lars, if when the crop was worth two hundred mil lions the quantity of paper currency then was one hundred millions, fifty per cent, more would be an ample addition to the currency. The authors of tho currency bill just adopted by Congress go for be yond this in their estimate. Shoold one hundred and fifty millons of paper money be sufficient, end the Banks be content to an equal share of the currency sevekty-five millions would he tho amount to be al lotted to the Confederacy. c. Tax Wheat Crop.—Never was the earth so healthful. Within the interior regions of the country the land ia laughing oat the promise of a rich crop of wheat from every seam and farrow. Especially from Middle Tenneaaee do we receive cheering news of plenty in the fields. “ There has never been in my recol lection,” writes a farmer of sturdy sense and long observance, “ a season which affords ns so much hope. The wheat is coming up beau tifully, fresh and lively. I calculate to raise a large overplus beyond last year.” Others, verbally and by letter, confirm this statement. The gentle rain3 of 8pring now ooming with the April weather will,. by the goodness of God, give ns barns loaded to overflowing next fall. We have only to collect the crop. To do thi«r we mast possess the country.— Let the soldiers fight for the territory, and the women and children will gather the til lage. We will not starve.—Chat.

Richmond, MArqji 27, 18C3. This is tho day set apart by the President as a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer and its observance is general throughout th city. Divine service was held in all the churches, eloquent and appropriate exhorta tions flowed from every pulpit, and a univer sal prayer from- fervant hearts,- reached the throne of Jehovah that He would smile our wicked enemies and restore peace to our bleeding country: When the chosen people of God, under the old law, retired to praise and glorify the Lard of Hosts, they were re viled and persecuted by the unbelioviu> gen tiles; but-their Lord vouchsafed to attest llis pleasure at their faithful perseverance, by open manifestations of His merciful protec tion. The same God livcth, and IDs mercy, and His power endurcth forever, Ilcir ilio New York Tribune in its impious railing on the subject of President Davis’ Proolams.iton. “The Confederate President has*.issued another Proclamation for a public fast injhis dominions, which considering the condition of flesh-pots In these demesnes, strikes us as just a little supererogatory. We have no fear that any of .tho rebels will .eat' too much’'— “not only* by man, but by beast will hW in junctions be well heeded.” “Fast Days, nro puritanical institutions—tbe very first Fast ever kept upon this comment was kept iu Plymouth by Praise-God Dare-Bones ami oth - er scurvy Pilgrim Fathers.” When the devil quoted-Scripture to our Blessed Lard, the Holy Word was only per verted—not destroyed. If the “scurvy Pil grim Fathers” observed tbe first last day upod this continent, at Plymouth, do their sourvier sons forget' that the divine injunc tion to fast and pcay is as old its the first Rev elation which God was pleased to make to fallen man, and that nearly eighteen centu ries before Praise-God Dare-Bones helped to found the narrow-minded, intolerant, Phari saical bigotry • of Ne* England Purilauiim, the God whom wo supplicate, this day, give to that injunction the sanction of iiis own example by retiring from nts active duties of His divine mission upon earth, and lasting and praying for forty days. j But, imagine yourself in the secret ohtet of the vile miscreant who bos thus datid, with pious uuckery, to stand between, the penitent Christian and his God Behold him, this very morning, when the thunder of God’s wrath comes booming upon his ears irom the banks of the Mississippi, bee him when the shrieks and curses of the miserable victims who, with their shattered gunboats, were sunk on Wednesday last, at Yioksburg, reach his editorial den. The winds of Heaven have already wafted across that land of abomination itud sin, the shouts of our noble defenders as gunboat, af ter gunboat were either sunk or driven buck, maimed and crippled, from Vicksburg, Deep Creek, Payne’s Bluff, and Fort Pemberton]— Horace (freely, the flippant railler—the, soul-less fanatic—the Gai-let; abolitionist, is appalled because he sees on every side the lurid lightning of God’s avenging wrath. The spring campaign has resulted gloriously to our arms, and promises & success worthy the unparalleled bravery of our troops. Never be fore. in the history of our race, have two such armies confronted each other ; and history has not yet recorded such signal victories over vastly superior numbers as thoae with which Providence bos blessed our arms. We have so far nobly met ihe crisis; and, wile a patriotic determination on ibe part of our people, old and young, high ami low, officials and civilians, to strengthen our armies with men, money, arid food, we shall pass through it in satiety, and need never Benin tear such formidable combins- tloif. by set and laud, as Lincoio has now been oni. t d to precipitate upon us. Since my last, a bill has passed the Senate providing that there be furnished to every eu**. listed, man in the service of tbe Confederate States one ration ot tobacco under such regu lations as the Secretary of War may ’ establish When this bill becomes a law, the boys need m longer “chew the bitter cud of discontent.’* The bill to prescribe the rates of postage on newspapers; periodicals, books, and transient and other matter, has been reported to the Sens ate from the Committee on postal affairs. Tno bill consists of two sections, and, as respects newspapers, provides the rates on all published in the Confederate States, sent to' regular sub** scribers, as follows: For each paper not weigh ing over three ounces, one cent, and for every additional ounce or fraction of au ounce, one- half cent. It also provide That publishers of newspapers or periodicals may 9end to each other, from thair respective offices 'of publica-i tian, free of postage, one copy ot each publica tion. The bill establishing the court of Claims, has passed tbe Senate with an amendment pro viding for the payment by the Secretary of the Treasury of all claims judicially established by the Court, limiting, however, tho amount of any one payment to fifteen thousand dol lars unless provided for by .Congress by a special appropriation. Messrs. Clay, Summed, Simms and Sparrow voted against the bill. The tax bill'oneountered tierce opposition be fore its passage in the House. The final vote was 60 for, to 80 against, it. The chief ground of opposition was as intimated in a former letter; the hardship and alleged injustice which its uniformity must work in those sections of oountry which have been overrun or are oc cupied by the enemy. The dissentients have a strong hope that it will be vetoed by the President on Constitutional grounds. They hold that a direct lax is unconstitutional and absurd without a precedent census; and they build their hope or a veto on the fact that t ho Tax Bill as passed, will diminish the salaries of. the President and District Judges which the Constitution says shall neither be increas ed nor diminished during the incumbency of of the person to be affected thereby. Before the final vote on the bill, the tax of 2per cent, on real estate, as recommended by the Committee, was reduced to 1 percent as it now stands. The bill providing a mode for the assessment and collection of the tuxes is now before the House, and will occupy 80 me days yet. On Tuesday, Mr. Gartrell procured the passage of a bill under a suspension of the Jules, to amend the sequestration act so as to empower District Judges to lease such alien property liable to confiscation, as consists in mines or furnaces of iron, lead or cvpper oie. A resolution has been introduced in the Senate requesting the President to cause esti mates of the expenses of the Government till January 1st, 1864, to be sent in *.o Congress. This resolution can hardly be complied with before adjournment, and the consequence will be an Extra Session in^ho summer. r CHEROEEB.

We have been uncomfortable and are more weary to day tbau at any tiuic in the past long and weary twenty.four months. Our proximity to Richm >nd instead of being a source of of plenty to u*, is quite the contrary. Siuce onr arrival here we re ceive but J pound of bacon a day, with an occasional issue' of rice, sugar and peas — These issues, however, arc but occasional— say once a week. To be sure, wc can visit Richmond and buy what » e like, but oue vis it generally takes al! .the cash on hand prices being so excessively high.

No! we will continue iu the war path long after' our beef and flour have gone, living on the roots of tho earth and tbe waters of the spring, even as our forefathers have done before us. Thu health of our command ia good, though not e * good as at Fredericksburg. There are a few cases of luierniiitout Fever and Catarrh, but the scourge of the army at this season last year—the camp fever—has not made its appearance. The Small l’ok has almost en tirely disappeared—indeed i question wheth er there h.u> over been a case, originating in the army. A.I the oases that I have heard reported were contracted out of camps—at the' hospitals and along the roads. We expect to lia*e a general review in a It w days il the ground will g*.t dry enough.

Sword and Pen —illustrious rivals in the race for tame. A lot of court martial sentences has just been received. They come with the regulari.y of a Hebdontedal. , The last batch are more than usually severe. A number ol men ate to be shot, a few whipped, a large number to labor with hall and chain, and some to be decorated with a flour barrel:aiiirt. Have you ever witnessed the latter punishment ? It is a severe one. The barrel is pluced over the head of the defender, his arms being put through holes in each side The barrel is marked in largo, letters, “Absent without leave,”—"I deserted my colors.” and oilier sentences to describe iho nature ot the offence. Th.'culprit feeling like a drowned rat, is then led up ana down the line, or stationed in front of bis regiment d, ring • ress parade. It is a punishment that is very much dreaded. 1 am' afraid, ho* over, that as a general thing, court rnarliais are too severe. I saw a man ou a late torrifio march of sixty miles, wearing all the way. a ball anil chain, weigh ing about twenty five pounds. His offense was a simple one. and knowing tho man to bo ordinarily a good soldier, my heart bled lor him 1 think that these hew boards, lor. the trial of offences, will be advantageous to the sotdicr as well as to tbe service. . I notice the President has seleoted for theeo boards the first men of the oountry, and men of seuse are always charitable and kind. It is ouly men of narrow intellects and gravelling na lures that are cruel. ^ By tho appointment of Col. L. M. Lamar, of the 8ih Georgia, as a member of one of the3 : boards, Lt. Col. J. R.

Dawson, as to which «f them are entitled to the position of Lt Colonel. - Ala jor Magruder claims it us being in the near eat.order for promotion, nnd Capi. Dawson claims it as a matter of right, arguing that at the lime Major Magruder was promoted from Captain to Major, lie, Capi Dawson, was tho senior officer, and should -have had that position. They are both good officers, and the matter, therefore, is of very little interest to tho regiment. Just this minute, as I crossed the “i ” in the word “reg ment,” 1 hear a new order which would rejoice our animals mightily, h id they reason and uudefotanding.

DAVIS, Impeachment of' Lincoln.—The special correspondent of the Chicago Times, writing from Washington, learns from a distinguished citizen of New York, that Lincoln is to boim- peaohod at the opening of the next session of Congress. The movement, it says, origina ted with tho most eminent lawyers o; the country, including two from the West. The movement is in the hands of men, whose character for decision aod firmness as wallas for courage, is a sufficient guarantee that they will carry it through. The Executive, it says, has furnished am ple grounds for impeachment, and every true patriot will rejoice, it says, to learn that-he is to be brought to punishment The first draft of the articles of impeachment are al ready drawn. A Female Aid-de Gamp.—The Baltimore Clipper says Aittonia J. Ford was the prin cipal spy and guide for Capt.
