Galveston Declabbd Untenable.—The Hous ton Telegraph, of the 2d iust., contains the fol lowing important announcement: A council of war was held at Galveston on Wednesday last, the result of which has not ik finitely transpired. It is rumored, however, that the conclusion arrived at is, that Galveston is untenable. In support of this rumor, the bat teries on the beacu havo been removed; tho powder and other munitions of war on the island have been taken to a place of greater security; a portion of the public records have been re moved; and a building has been rented in this oily to be used as a hospital to which the sick in tho Galveston hospital have been removed. So much for the action of the public authorities. Private parties are also migrating to a place of greater security, a number ofwhoat came up to this city on tho train Saturday. The Galves ton News’ has rented an office in this city, ar.d will soon remove here. All these things point in one direction, and leave but little room for doubt or conjecture. We must say however, that it is a little singular that our Galveston co - have not mentioned one. word of these things. They may think to keep me enemy in ignorance by their silence, but experience has taught us that when a thing has become “town talk,” the enemy find it out without the aid of newspapers. We believe in letting oar people know wbat is transpiring affecting their inter ests, vrhe-n the knowledge can servo them more than it wili benefit the enemy, even at the risk of informing the enemy of it through our columns, which iu this instance, we do not think at all likely. Revolution is Bradley Countt.—A gentle man who is fully informed and entirely reliable, writes us from Bradley county , that on the 11th last., “since the Message of Lincoln has reached that county, scarcely a’Union man can be found —all declare themselves for tho South.

The people say they have been mislead by their leaders in regard to the policy of the Northern government. They can not be sold to Abolitiondom. Bradley county is going to furnish a regiment for the Confederate army. Dr. Thompson will go into the regiment, and manv more prominent Onion men, since reading Lincoln’s Message, have declared them selves strongly foe the South.

Feom CoLfMßcs. —There is nothing more true - then the scripture maxim that the “ wicked flee when no man pursueth.” It was forcibly iilus trated on last Friday night, opposite Columbus. It seems that some four or Uve hundred of the enemy’s cavalry were out scouting, and had halt ed for a time on or near the battle held ot Bel mont. From some cause or other, they suddenly stampeded, rushing belter skelter towards the in terior, leaving behind them many articles which were afterwards gathered up by" persons in the neighborhood. One hundred and ten blankets were picked up by one man, and brought over te Columbus. On daturday, thelSth Louisiana Re giment was sent across the river with the view of bagging the scouting party, shouM they repeat the experiment. Nothing, however, was seen of them and tba regiment returned Sunday morning. [Menipkie Appeal, 104.4.

We have received by our special “submarine espres ,” the Louisville Journal, of the sih iust., which is one day later from the North than we have before had. Tito following editorial leader, on Lincoln’s message, is go remarkable an artioja, that we transfer it in full to our columns : We are sorry to be constrained to acknowledge that the President’s message is, on the point of chief solicitude to the conservative men of the country, by no means satisfactory. Nay the message on this point is deplorably unsatisfactory. We make the confession frankly, because it is true, and because it behooves the loyal men of the country not only to face the truth confessed, but to firmly grapple with it instantly. The point to which we refer is of course the future policy of the administration with respect to slavery. Concerning this point in its principal aspect the message contains the following pas- sage : “Also, obeying the dictates of prudence, as well ns the obligations of law, instead of transcen ding, I have adhered to the act of Congress to confiscate property used for insurrectionary pur poses. If a now law upon the same eubject shall bo proposed, ns propriety shall be duly consider ed/ The Union must be preserved, and hence nil desirable means must bo employed. We should not be in haste to determine what radical and j extreme measures, which may reach the loyal, as well as the disloyal, are indispensable.” It is impossible to look upon this as anything 1 S more or less than the expression of an indirect j i and unmanly concurrence in the policy asserted . j recently by Col. Cochrane and approved '. y Sec- J i retary Cameron to tin- mortification and shame i of every loyal mat; in Kentucky. The passage is | lacking in propriety as woefully as in Statesman ship. The manner is as bad as the matter. Both are deeply unworthy. The President, without boldly assuming the i espousibility of recommend ing such a confiscation law cs tho anti slavery xealots demand, encourages them to go forward and enact their law ; an'd, without openly approv thc policy of emancipation, he 'gives tbe parti sans of the polity to understand t hat in the end ; they will not be disappointed. In short, the clear | import of this passage of the message is, that not i only is the President not irreconcilably hostile to radical co niseis, but entertains them kindly, and even meditates their adoption. Tne passage is virtually a hint to Congress that, if tha body will take the responsibility of authorizing or of recommending extreme measures, the President will probably take the responsibility of approving and of carrying them ou*. And the several bills and rcsoltions proposing extreme measures which have been already introduced into one or tbe other house, with overpowering manifestations of favor, show that Congress will not be slow to act upon this hint. Congress is apparently bent on : such action. We thus have before us tbe start- : ling faot that, within a few days or weeks, the : President will be called upon to decide so, or against the adoption of measures which the con servative man of tbe country deem utterly fatal to the re-establishment of our goveramen*. and which he will consider with a bias favorable to their adoption. This is the ; lain truth, deny it who may, and the revelation ..f this truth marks the real turning-point in the present momentous struggle. Now, of all other.;, is the critical hour of American nationality. Wuat ia to be dose ? There is but one thing to be done. The adoption of the extreme measures contemplated must be prevented or the nation ! ii swallowed up. Ot this we do not feel a shadow of doubt. But bow can the adoption of these ! measures be prevented ? Thc-re appears to us to j be three modes in either of which the all impor tant prevention may be attained. 1. Tho pros- ; perity of our arms and of our cause generally, in j a degree that v: ill put ail pretexts whatever for a resort to extreme measures out of the question. ! 2. The awakening of the conservative sentiment and enlightened loyally of the country, and the bringing of both to bear on the President with a | force which he cannot as an honest and rational m»n, withstand. S. The resolution of the com mauder-iu chief in the field and of bis principal associates in command to surrender their swords , rather than hns them with the infamy of such measures. The first of these three modes is tor , the most par; beyond the reach of the people. We have la.th in it, but it should not be relied on blindiy. Tbe last mode ia our ias: hope. When i everything else fails thia mode, though hardly : beyond the reach of the people, is still not direct- ! It within their influence. The second mode is es pecially the people’s own, and through this mode j we ifiToke the people to pour their awakened en- I ergies with a spirit of loity resolve that will not be put down or put aside. Here is the sphere : wherein the loyal masses of our people iu this crisis of the nation’s fate can work effectually for the national preservation. We call them to the sublime task. The task can be performed successfully. Let ! it be performed at every cost of energy and of sacrifice. We wouid have tbe General Assembly i of Kentucky inaugurate the imperative work, by at occe protesting ia loyal terms, but explicitly and emphatically against the adoption of tne measures in contemplation. Let this be d.-ae; -• ali the example be foil., vsd, as preinn 1/ at possible by Missouri, and Delaware, and », s.ero \ irx.itia, and everv other Southern commuaitv, whether large or smail, that stiii owns the banner of our country. Furthermore,* let these solemn protestations be carried to Washington by dele gations of the most eminent and influential cii - zn-ns of the respective communities, and be urged n : • m the President with aii the weight of exalted cm.racier and intelligence, seconded by the pow er of personal presence. Let the lev tl men c f the South list- up as one man, and teli ti*e Presi dent he knows not nhathedoes. Nor mu t the ; loyal inert of the North sit inactive. Let the eti- j lightened journalists and speakers of the North Svt forth iu a strong light the facts, fiist, that slavery is net the cause, but tbe mera pretext of j the rebellion ; tau secondly, that the policy of j emancipation, if adopted by the Administration, would render the bare physical suppression of the rebellion r.ioro difficult infinitely, while it would make the re-cstablishmsnt of the govern ment wholly impossible. Let them point out the transparent folly which ; lies at the bottom of this cry for extreme meas ures, and bold up to view the immeasurable folly | and enormity of the cry itself. Let ihe finer in i teliigenco end noble impulses of the NortLern j masses be awakened into triumphant action by ; just and determined and universal appeals; and : *t the better views and sentiments that como of | ibis awakening and timely expression in public | meetings, in private letters, in petitions, in dele j gations popular and official, and in every other I practicable form. In a word, let the conservative ! men of the North rise also as one man, and unite ! with ths loyal men of the South ia protesting against the destructive aud monstrous policy to ward which the Administration is drifting night and Jay. Let the virtue and enlightenment of the whole loyal section of the Union lift up their mingled voices in one loud, and lofty, and pro longed demand for mode! ate counsels in tho Ad ministration. Such a demaud, so put forth, the President could not withstand. He would not attempt to withstand it. He would hail it as the rtrong and all sustaining echo ofhis own better, but feeble purpose. We cal! on the loyal men of the country to be gin th s work forthwith, and to prosecute it v, it- - out flagging until the end is secured. Not a day should be lost. The louger tho work is deferred, the harder will be its accomplishment. If defer red long, its accomplishment may be unattainable. It is now plain te every candid'observer that the President must either break with the extreme men of his party or sacrifice the country to their fanatical measures. One or the other is inevita ble. The message shows that the President is not disposed to break with the extreme men of his party. He wants, perhaps, both the sagacity and ihe nerve. Something he certainly wants.— Whatever it may be, the firm, full, healthful, as suriug, overruling voice of the people will supply it. Let that voice be heard. If it should be hushed in silence at such a juncture, the blood of tha noblest government the wor'd has seen would not rest on the hands of a frail executive and his j hair-brained counselors alone. Wc have spoken I openly and plaiuly on this subject because we ' feel that tbe great hope of the country lies in ! fully recognizing the actual peril and in resolute ly grappling with is. Our sense of the actual peril is most deep and vivid. If we suppressed or disguised it, we should bo salsa to ourselves and false to our country. We kuow not how it may be with others, but we confess the effect pro due and oa us by the mournful repulse and panic of Bull Run was elation compared with the feel ing we experienced on rending the passage of the message which forms the text of these remarks. Unless the President is spaedily braced up by the conservative sentiment of the nation, there is serious danger that although the rebellion be put down, the nation wiil be extinguished.

Win. Ballard Preston scorns to he the favorite candidate of the Whig B*de of the house. The timo of the election has not been de termined upon. Ia Congress, to-day President Davis sent -the following mesissge to Congre.B : To the Congress of the Confederate States : The calamity which has laid in ashes a portion of the city of Charleston, calls for out sympathy, and seems to justify the offer of aid, in the manner hereinafter suggested. The State of South Carolina will, no doubt, desire to assist tbo people of Charleston, iu their hour of need; but as her resources are now taxed to the utmost iu resisting the invasion of her soil, the prompt in tervention of this Government may not be deemed unsuitable to the occasion, 'the State of South Calolina, in common with the other States, has made liberal advances on account of the war, and this Government is, unquestionably largely her debtor. With the existing pressure upon her re sources, it is probable that her desire to aid the suffering city of Charleston may be restrained by other demands upon her available means. Under such circumstances, may we not exhibit oar sympathy with her people by an offer to place at tbo control of the Legislature of that State, now iu session, a portion of the sum we owe her? The mugni'ude of her calamities affords a reason for making an exception in her favor; and prompt ness of action will manifest in the most appropri ate manner the sincerity of our regard for the people of that gallant State, and our entire sym pathy in all that concerns them. I recommend, therefore, that Congress make au appropriation, ! of such an amount as may be deemed snfficient | lor the purpose proposed, t» be placed at the. ' control of the authorities of the State of South , Carolina. Ji.ff.:ubon Davis. In Congress Mr. Eemn-r of Louisiana, offered the following resolrlion, which was unanimously adopted : A resolution to make an advance to the State of South Carolina, on account of hei claims againss the Confederate States : Resolved, That the sum of $250,000 be, and is j hereby appropriated as an advance on account of : any claims of the State of Sooth Carolina upon i the Confederate State;., and that the same be ;>aid 1 So sucli person as may be authorised by the Leg | islature of South Cnrohea to receive the same.

Feeling it his duty to take up arms In defence of Ids coun try’s right*, he Joined the Confederate Volunteers under, Capt. J .'fl. Ethridge, attached to the 14th Georgia Regiment, and wont with hia company to Northwestern Virginia, where he endured a share of their sufferings and privations, until he was prostrated by Typhoid Fever, lrom which he never recovered. He made a puolic profession of religion in 1868, and those who kn*w him doubt net the reality of hi* conversion. He leaves a companion and an infant son, wit h parents, brother?, sisters and friends to meurn his death—yet they mourn not as ) those who have no hope. His remains have been ret urned to tk» home of his childhood, psrenta and family, and now re pose by the side of a departed brother and sisters. Peace be with tnec, my brother, untnl we meet where parting will be no »ore. A. D. S***«*. "~STEAM POWER PRINTING. CHRONICLE Si SENTINEL Book, Job AND FANCY PRINTING OFFICE, AUGUSTA, GA.
