EFFECTSOF WAR! rSVIIK effect of the war policy of the Northern X administration is already being felt to a great extent all ovor the North. The heavy de cline in iho value of property of all kinds, tho al most entire suspension of their manufactories, and the many failures that occur every day among their commercial houses, aro the first signs of the terrible result and the just punish ment of a crisis which they have inaugurated themselves. Merchants of the host standing are compelled to throw their goods into market and auction houses in order to realize the cash, while such can only be done at great sacrifices. Ilaving returned a few days ago from the North, we had occasion while there, to witness some of these large auction Rales, where some of the finest and most fashionable goods were sold at unusual low prices; in fact so low that we could not resist the temptation, and concluded to purchase a good supply for our market, and we take pleas ure now to offer tho same to our customers and public in general at a very small profit. Among tho many articles we mention particularly. A large and beautiful assortment of DroisM£» GrOOd.S.

The Augusta Chronicle has heard that the third Georgia Regiment, Col. A. It. Wright, has been ordered from Ports mouth to Manassas. Gov. Jackson of Missouri. In his speech at Richmond, a few nights since, Gov. Jackson, of Missouri, stated that Gen. Ben McCulloch and himself had now an army of about 40,000 available troops, and rapidly increasing ; that he had come tq Virginia to settle some little matters preparatory to the secession of his State, after which he intended to re turn to his Western homo and take the field, never to leave it until success had crowned his efforts. Spirit of Georgians. The Richmond Enquirer, of the 29th, says : “At a late hour on Friday evening, we met, on the street, a youth from Georgia, who anxiously inquired if there was any chance for him, at that hour, to procure a pass to Manassas for the next morning’s train, stating that he had left home on Wednesday, to take the place of one of his brothers, who had fallen in the battle of Sunday. He added that he had lost in this war, another brother, whose place would also be supplied by a member of his family.” Wliat the London Times Correspond ent tlitnks of tile FlglU. A special dispatch to the Baltimore Ex change, from Washington, says that Mr. Russell, of the London Times, who was present at tho battle, states that the loss in killed and wounded of the Federals must amount t 012,00 that the loss of the Confederates will probably reach 4,000. lie states that history records no such defeat for the past century—no rout so utter aud complete as that of the Fed eral forces. The fighting of the Southern men, he says, was magnificent. They fired with the precision of veterans. — They would fall to permit their artillery to tire, and then rising, discharge their muskets and charge bayonet in splendid order. Some of the evolutions were su perb, and performed with perfect rapidi ty, coolness and discipline. From the Petersburg Express. Colonel Pegrarn. As Colonel Pegram ha3 many anxious ly enquiring friends, who are ignorant as to whother he is dead or alive, and if living where he is, I deem a removal of all doubt, aud a short account of his gallant action, will not be unacceptable to tho public. We left Col. Pegrarn quite sick, but well attended in Beverly. He is certainly to be sent to Fort McHenry, as we heard the order from Gen. Scott read. As to his actions in the battle of Rich Moun tain, any one in the fight would concur with me in saying that a braver man never drew a sword. With 1,000 men he kept at bay 9,000 Yankees. During the thickest of the fight he rode from one place to another on the field, with as much coolness and calmness a3 a farmer riding in different parts oi liis iarm. Unfortunately one piece of our cannon which was playing with effect upon the enemy, bursted. The other piece had to be removed from tho battery, the horses of which took fright and ran away, and thus it fell in possession of the enemy. When he heard of it, his clear and musi cal voice could be heard above the sound of musketry, saying, “I will have that cannon or die, and at the risk too, my brave boys, of sacrificing every one of you.” He then removed nearly every man from his breastworks to go with him. Unhappily, whilst leading on his mon, the bit of his bridle broke, and his horse dashed off with him towards the enemy, lie was unable to restrain him, and just as he was about to be carried in the midst of the enemy, lie jumped off, and in the fall he struck his head, which was severely hurt. He was heard to say that not less than one thousand balls were directed at him. Thus badly hurt, he had to be taken to his tent. He gave the command of the men he had with him to Major Tyler, saying he would take care 1 of the men about his cannon and breast works. About midnight he sent word to i Tyler to save his men, who did so; to the rest of us he said “Boys follow me ! I shall shed my last drop of blood to seve you.” Thus we retreated towards Laurel j Hill, with Pegram in our arms, not hav ] ing heard a word of Garnett’s retreat. THE QUITMAN liUAHDS, &e. Pike C,.„ Ala., July 23. Eds. Sun: It is presumed that a sketch of the events of Saturday, the 20th inst., in extending the hospitalities of this community to the “Quitman Guards,” of Troy, on their way to the seal of war, may not he uninteresting to a greater portion of your readers. When it was known that they would be here, on the day mentioned above, the generous aud patriotic citizens hastened to prepare for them a suitable reception. At something past 11 o’clock, a pro cession ol citizeus was formed, which, being led by Capt. Sinquelield, moved up the highway, at some distance to meet tho corps which was iu waiting. Ou their return, the Guards in the rear, the spectacle presented was quite entertaining; and many were the eulogies pronounced iu behalf of their manly aud soldierlike appearance. Judgiag from their mien, none will give a better account of themselves iu the hour of trial, and when victory is won and they return to their peaceful homes, many and romantic will be the tales they may have to tell their children and pos terity, aud in after days, when the his torian is called upon lo record the stir ring events, that are now transpiring, and that will occur, he may have occasion to write in blazing capitals the deeds of the immortal Quitman Guards, on the the bright page of history. The company being formed iu double file, and an appropiate prayer being of fered by Rev. J. J. Harris, they were welcomed to the hospitalities of tho com munity, by Dr. J. S. Simmons, in an eloquent address. After its delivery, Capt. Gardner responded, in words, por traying a mind clothed in all of the Chris tian graces. In behalf of the ladies, Miss Martha A. Bean, then bid them welcome in a brief speech, which would have done honor to au older head. Tho multitudinous throng was held in profound silence during its delivery, and gave way to an outburst of applause. A sympathetic response, from Private A. W. Starke, closed the ceremonies, and the Guards marched off to partake of the refreshments so bounteously offered. Tho following are the addresses, re spectively, of Dr. J. S. Simmons and Miss M. A. Bean, which we hope may find a place in your columns: C. L. M. Capt. Gardner, and Gentlemen of the Quit man Guards : It is with no ordinary degree of pleas ure that I, as the humble represen tative of the citizens of this vicinity, welcome you tq our hospitalities. And I feel well assured, gentlemen, that I but speak the sentiments of every member of this community, when I say that we are proud that an opportunity is thus offered us to manifest, in an humble manner, our regard for you, and the in terest feel in the cause which leads you away from your homes and friends. Were this only a social gathering—had you merely bid a short adieu to your homes to celebrate the festivities and share the hospitalities of friends, what a different feeling would pervade this assemblage. But when we behold your glittering bayonets and glistening swords, we are reminded that our once peaceful and happy people are again convulsed with the tumults of the war. The proud fabric, reared by the hands of our fathers and cemented with their blood has been desecrated by unholy and unjust Sands: “But yesterday the word of Ctesar might, Have stood against the world’s; now lies lie there, And none so poor to do him reverence.” Yes, the “Stars and Stripes” which wave over sea and land, and offered pro* tection to every citizen of our once glo rious republic, are now, “Gone glim’ring thro’ the dreams of things that were, A schoolboy’s tale—the wonder of an hour.” But this has not been the work of a dayi Tho vandals at the North have long since laid the axe at the root of the tree, while the patriotic sons of the South, have been crying in thunder tones, “Woodman spare that tree.” The Southern patriots, true to the blood of their sires, have determined to resist the oppression, and maintain the inheritance of their fathers—liberty and tho right of self government are senti ments prevailing in every Southern heart —“liberty or death.” Therefore, all over the united South, we who are not gone, are ready for the war. Already old Piko has attended the call, and ‘still they come.’ I would here take occasion to say, that notwithstanding wo have not made any great public display of our feelings—looal subdivisions having prevented us from having soldiers in the field—nevertheless we have many among us who are anxious to share the dangers as well as the glories of the battle field, and many who are willing to sacrifice their all upon the alter of their beloved South. Therefore, be assured that old Bug Hall willjoin you not far in the distance, and when the waves of abolitionism, that now lash our shores, shall have been stayed, and when our famous military chieftains are gathering, and meting out the laurels of victory, we, 100, hope to be there to receive, with you, our share of the fruits due to patriotic bravery. This occasion, gentlemen, will also re mind you that the ladies in this vicinity have not been passive nor unthinking observers of our military movements. They have graced every military assem blage with their presence, and exhibited a willing heart and a helping hand, but their inviting smiles speak to you in softer-greeting tones than words, which man can speak. In conclusion, gentlemen, let me assure you that you will have our heartfelt wish es and prayers for your success in the contest. May the God of battles guide and protect you in every conflict —may your banner never trail in tbe duel anu when the din of war is over, and the last contending foe expires—when the drum 6 muffled notes shall cca3e, may you be per mitted to return to your homes and friends, and again inhale the fragrance of your own magnolia and the balmy breath of your own sunny clime, and long live to enjoy thu victories and glories you have won : and yrben you shall havepas {NUMBER 5. •sed away, generations yet unborn, virw ing your glorious deeds through the tel escope of history, will sing blessings on your name in choral lotbe skies. Speeclt of Mias Bean. Capt. Gardner, and Citizen Soldiers : We behold this morning a very unusual spectacle. Why all this martial array ? Why do wo see so many of our gallant countrymen bearing on their person the implements of deadly combat? Ah ! let us turn the anxious ear to the hills of Virginia and the plains of Missouri, and the cannon’s roar will answer emphati cally in tones of thunder. Ask" Mrs. Jackson, bereaved of her brave and patriotio husband. Our beloved Sunny South is invaded by the hirelings and minions of an unprincipled despot. Aud, gentlemen, although it is your lot to cut loose the tie that binds you to your loved one’s at home, and take up the march for the distant battle field, to encounter tho hardships and dangers of war, re member, 1 pray you, that you have left behind you in your own l’ike, yes, around Farriorville, your female friends whose fervent prayers will ever ascend to the God of battles in your behalf. We cannot take up arms to defend our country. Wo need not, but we have souls that will follow*you—wo have hearts of sympathy. We cannot fill the place of a Martha Washington, but like those that lived in the days of the Revolution, we can honor the friends and despise, with indignation, the'enemies of our country. Ours is not the motive of fear ; with our armies composed of the flower of our country—such as we now have the pleas ure to behold—fighting for the cause of justice and liberty, vo never dream of subjugation—no, never! Go bravo soldiers ! Repel the dastard ly invader ! Gain for your country peace, and for yourselves laurels, that will dec orate the pages cf your country’s history. And may the kind hand of Providence be over you, and speedily return you to the fond embraces of your dear families and friends in good old Pike. >--<»► ■— The Great Battle. Wo make a further summary of inci dents of the battle of Manassas, taken from various sources: RETURN OF THE “GRAND ARMY.” The Alexandria correspondent writes the Baltimore Exchange : This town to day lias been the theatre of evonts and spectacles, the like of which have never before been witnessed on this continent. The Grand Army of the Un ion, which so lately left here in all the pride, pomp and circumstance of glor ious war, with drums beating, colors flying, and ranks dressed as if for a holi day parade, returnod to day, but in such a plight that it was taxiDg credulity to the utmost to believo that these were tho same men. It is impossible to conceive of a more deplorable spectacle, to say nothing of the repulsive and harrowing appearance of dead and wounded bodies; the living and unwounded men themselves were fit objects of nothing but compassion. Ex hausted with fatigue and hunger, fear and dismay upon every countenance, with torn clothing, covered with dust and blood, many without shoes or hats, they were to be seen in all quarters of the town, lying upon the pavements, cel lar doors, or on any other spot that of fered them a place for the repose which nature demanded. Many of them had not their arms, knapsacks, &c., and had nothing of the appearance of soldiers left except their besmeared and tattered uniforms. They did not pretend to ob serve any order, nor did their officers seem to exercise the lea3t authority over them. They went where they pleased, happy, apparently, that they had escaped even, if but temporarily, from tho dis gusting tasks which their leaders had vainly sought to accomplish by their hands. The inhabitants of this city, who, when these soldiers were here in all their arro gance and pride, had refused to counten ance them or to treat them otherwise than as intruders and enemies, were now touched with compassion at their altered condition. Food was freely served to them from their houses. Some of the more exhausted and wearied were taken in and cared for, and drink aud refresh ments were sent to them by the servants of men and women whom they had come to despoil. The Virginia heart opeued itself to the distresses of those whom it refused to countenance when they came to demand permission, and impose terms at the point of the bayonet. The Washington Star says : The scene on all the roads leading to tho Long Bridge yesterday, beggars de scription. Artillery and infantry were straggling along iu tho greatest confu sion, the men completely broken down for the want of food and sleep, and by the fatigues of a long march. Regiments and companies were mixed in inextri cable confusion in most cases; but occa sionally a column oi one, two, three or four regiments would come along in per fect order. Stragglers were stopped at Fort Runyon for some time, and at that point the scene was painful. The men cauie in jaded and tired, and sitting or lying down in the pelting rain, only protected by blankets-or oil cloths, were fast asleep in a moment after asssu ming a recumbent position. Many of the officers and artillerymen would fall asleep on theirhorses. The want of food was almost forgotten, although many o them had been fating for 24 hours. Lieut. Watson, of the Commissary De partment, distributed a large quantity of provisions from the store house at Fort Runyon to the famished troops through out the day. _ A Richmond correspondent of the Pe tersburg Express, says the lion. Mr. Ely, from the notoriously Black Republican Rochester, New York, District, is said to be deeply distressed at bis condition. He feels greatly humiliated, and sheds tears copiously all the day through. He has been consoled with the reflection that not a hair of his head will be touched, if Colonel Thomas, of Maryland, who is now confined in Fort McHenry, is not punished. But if Col. T. should be hung, as Lincoln threatens he shall be, Mr. Ely will have to perform on tho slack rope. TELEQBAP EC IC Dispatches to the Daily Hun. Georgia and Soutli Carolina Postmasters.
