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. Oue or
two hundred of them have joined the Southern
army in the last forty-eight hours. There is a
much better feeling than has ever prevailed in
the community before. 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.

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.

iiiiicoln’a Message fa Keatsicky.
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.

pointed aud promoted.

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

The following confirmations were made by Con

LATEST FROM WASHINGTON.
Waski. sotos, Dec. 10.—Seward’s letter to Min
ister Drayton in France is out. Seward is anx
ious to abolish privateering; the Thouvenel is
chary in his reply; and Seward rejects thelattwrs
proposition of neutrality.
Com. Wilkes, in his official statement of the
arrest of Messrs. Mason and Slidell, charges the
British agent with complicity in their escape and
departure for Europe.
In the House of Representatives, Mr. Pendle

OBITUARY
Died, at Rockbridge, Va., on the 26th day of November,
1801, JOHN E. PERKINS, of Monroe county. Ga., aged 23
years.
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***«*.
