Ilt-i oalifr, an edition of the Daily Sun

morning, at the usual hour, but there
wdl be no paper on Moinhn/ morning.
1 lie first edition after the one on Sunday
morning, will be issued on Monday even-'
in;/, at one'o’clock.
We are induced Iq, make (his change
from several important considerations,
two of which will suffice:
1. Most people prefer a paper on Sun
tlay morning, as they have more leisure
to read on that day than on any other.
2. Printers and editors are not presu
med to tie heatjjens, but, like other men,
desire to respect the Sabbath ordinance
and io attend church occasionally. This
they cannot do and work all day Sunday,
gelling up a paper for .Monday morning.
Advertisers will pjeasc note the change.
Kentucky.;— The Kentucky “demo
cratic’; convention at Frankfort lms mis
carried. Abolitionism has the control
ot the bayonets, and bayonets now rule
Kentucky' as they do Maryland and
Missouri. The day o/ conventions and
political pow wows is over in Lincoln
dom. Elections are conducted at the
paint ot the bayonet. Popular suffrage
is a farce. The State governments are
virtually abolished. The States are
mere viceroys governed by (he Central
Despotism at Washington. Abolitionism
nominates ils own candidates and force
their elections by forcing down all op

Pormpondffiicc of the Sim,
EuFAt:r.A, Ala., Feb. 25, 18G3.
/vVfe. Sun : The enrollment of con
scripts in this county'is stopped, and
“Othello’s occupation gone.” By vir
tue of an arvangment recently effected
with the War Department, all persons
subject to conscription in this Congress
ional district arfe retained for coast de
fense and State exigencies. Clanton of
Montgomery, has been commissioned
Brigadier General and assigned to its
immediate command. Companies are
now being raised under his authority.
This happened just about (he time
your correspondent had gotten his “hand
in,” aud fairly under way ;—had previ
ously scoured a goodly portion of “oJ|l
Barbour,” on horseback, in search of
her conscript fathers, and fancied (not
boastful) he could discourse to them the
modus operandi of the volunteer system,
with a fervor and pungency worthy a
Roman Cicero. The old “tins” seem
much concerned about the welfare of
their dear “darline” boys, aud not a few
asked me to give them furloughs when I
returned. It seems the war has not
continued long enough for some people
to find out through what medium leaves
of absence are obtained.
1 can but note tlie vast difference in
the climate and soil of this country and
that, of Tennessee. There the land is
stilf anti of a chocolate cast and never
wears out; here it is principally clay''
and sand intermixed—broken and sub
ject to waste by washings. But of the
two, tips is preferable for living.
To most persons, a country town like
this, would have been quite lonely—not
so with me. There is something attrac
tive and sublime in the piney woods on
a clear day—something inexpressibly
sweet. I love to listen to the wind
mourn through their stately branches,
and see the genial rays of the sun hang
tremulously upon tlie balmy atmosphere.
The meekly bowing of their verdant
tops, fanned by gentle zyphers, as if in
humble adoration, amid the deep silence
pervading everything, lend to the scene
an impressive solemnity, and give to im
agination an inviting field.
The North-western disaffection, and
current rumors of mediation, constitute
the principal theme of conversation
among the people. The public mind is
ripe for peace, and it is at. this time es
pecially a great desideratum. “A dying
man will catch at straws”; so is any
thing, however trivial, sufficient to sati
ate the morbid appetite. The less in
formed think negotiations are now pend
ing for the conclusion of amity. Here
is an opportunity for them to learn that
England and France are “broken reeds."
When the Governm|)it requires all of
ils available force put in the field, and
rescinds the rights of substitution, Nc.,
as indications go to prove it will ere
long do, this country can furnish many
more lo Die service, and that, too, with
out. interference with supply making.
’ Many are as intent upon amassing for
tunes as when peace and prosperity
blessed our land. Money is plentiful
and provisions copious, and the eouutry
in comparative peace to our suli’ering
brethren on tlie borders, yet there are
those who complain of hari times. It
would be well for these to experience,
like them, the pinch of war. It is stated
of a certain individual that lie once en
quired for a contented man with whom
to exchange shirts. Finally he found
the object, but the poor fellow had no
shirt!
Farmers are wide awake to their ag
ricultural interests. Some augur an
early spring and have planfed corn, and
others are doing so, seemingly fearless
of tin* V ! .Don of biting frosts, not
mifreqaently t-een here in- March and
April. Nearly all will plant cotton to
the full extremity of the law. A failure
tn make a good grain crop this year,
will do more to accomplish our over
throw, than the marshalled hosts of the
enemy.
The next in turn. Heaven bless them,

bufcwhy not! For

The Attack on Charleston.
The Defences of the City—Why th, Movement is
Delayed—How many Monitor-- it will require
lo take Chnrle.-Jor, As.
Tlie Yankees are all agog over the
movement against Charleston, and are
growing as impatient as they were last
| summer^.in their “On lo Richmond.”
! The special correspondent of the New
I York Herald, who accompanies tlie cx
j pedition, writes from'Hilton Head, S.
1 0., where the numerous tleet are reii
j do/vousiug:
| Ail immense pressure hasbeeu brought
to bear on those in authority by Con.
gressmen and others, backed up by iho
prevailing public sentiment, to bring
about an immediate attack of that
Sebastopol’of America. It acems to be
the general impression amongiho e who
know nothing of the uhtiraprcr of the
defences of Charleston and the immense
force at hand to garrison them, that ii
is an easy task to capture the place.
There could be no more dangerous error
lo fall into. The defences ol'Charlt: ton
are in every way superior and more for
midable than those'surrounding Rich
niond, against which our forces have
been led in vain. All that science and
skill could suggest, and labor and
money lavishly expended could accom
plish, have been applied to the strength
ening of the fortifications about Charles
ton. New and immensely strong works
have been erected, old ones remodeled
and increased in strength, and scientific
skill lias been exhausted in making
them complete against every assault.
Now, in view' of all these facts, it would
be sheer insanity to attempt the reduc
tion of the rebel w'orks without; an ade
quate force to successfully accomplish
our designs. Our land forces may be
weak, but We must relj' upon the navy lo
gain the victory, and that must have
force Strong enough to carry the
day after the loss of vessels, a loss which
will certainly occur, before our guns can
bear upon the city. Under Iho concen
tric tire of several hundred guns of the
heaviest calibre, protected by every
available methbd that art can afford
how long will it be before our wooden
squadron is melted away before the
storm of shell ?—and how many may
reasonably expect to run the gauntlet of
this terrific fire? It is safe to assume
that one-half or tv T o thirds will be crip
pled before the walls of Sumter are
passed; and then what other batteries
await them ? Wooden vessels cannot go
up to the city, and we must roly upon
iron clads to open the way lo our victo-
rious flag.
And this brings me to the question I
desire briefly to consider. 11 otv many
iron clads are, neecssary to reduce the
city of Charleston ? Many, and 1 doubt
not a vast majority of the public, who
have not investigated the subject in all
its bearings, seem to think that three or
four Monitdrs will be sufficient for the
successful accomplishment of the work.
If none were injured, or run aground,
or became disabled in any way, perhaps
three would be sufficient; but, unfortu
nately, everything made by human
hands is imperfect in one way or other,
and liable to become deranged, and its
success impaired, if not entirely de
stroyed, by some unforeseen contingency
over which we have no control. It would
be absurd to say that the Monitors are
not to be reckoned in the same category,
and il is the wisest, the safest course to
accept all these contingencies as highly
probable and likely to occur, and (here
by determine the successor failure of
our undertaking.
In the first place, -those Monitors must
go into Charleston harbor alone and
through the channel, which is not now
perfectly known—a channel which is
covered by a thousand heavy guns. No
pilot, whose experience was gained be
fore the war, would underlake to safely
convey a vessel up to (he city unless he
could feel his way in with the lead. No
buoys mark the channel,and its frequent
shiftings have rendered useless all - the
marks by which the pilot formerly
kept the proper channel. To suppose,
under these circumstances,’that all the
Monitors would escape the shoals and
middle grounds that abound in Charles
ton harbor would be absurd. One might
get ashore and serve as a buoy for the
others and so on, until two or three, or
indeed all would be hard and fast, from
the entrance to the channel to the city,
helpless and worse than lost to us.
We can afford to lose several Monitors,
if they are sunk in action and safely out
of the rebel power ; hut we cannot afford
to leave a single one on (lie beach, where
the rebels may capture tier, patch up
her shot holes and send her out against
us. Two of them would be very apt to
terminate our possession of the son of
Soudi Carolina. The rebels with one or
two Monitors would be nearly as well off
as wc are; and who could tell when
the affair would end? No! If we are
not entirely demented, po attack will he
made on Charleston Willi less than six,
and with as many more as can be sent
here. When we arc sifre of a victory let.
us go ahead ; but let not affairs be bast
cued that we may come out of a dis
astrous attack shorn of our peculiar
strength. We can afford to waif a little
for success.
Three Monitors can, il is thought,
when safely past Sumter and Moultrie,
capture the city. To get three through
we must expect to lose au equal number
on the way up. That is not too great an
estimate, lam convinced. Besides, wc
shall find work enough for them in aid
ing each other when ashore and iu pre
venting the unfortunate ones from falling
into the enemy’s hands. I have but hint
ed at some of the difficulties to be_ over
come; but a moment’s consideration of
these will satisfy any one tiiat ii would
be folly to attempt the groat work of
capttlring the strongest place in Amer
ica with a few Monitors Wc must have
six or eight, I repeat, when we make the
attack, or our success will not be so com
plete as we could wish.
I have written the above for the i-ole
purpose of curbing, if possible, the im
patience of Ibe North. Ido not pretend
lo know the jdans of the Admiral here,
and knew nothing of the force to be used
in any movement, nor do 1 know that he
has any design of attacking Charleston;
but 1 presume he is as anxious to make
the effort as we an; to witnessit. When
he docs attack, it will be a successful one,
1 am confident, and we can well ass ord to
awiit tlie opportune hour without impa
tience or giving ourselves unnecessary
trouble.

Semi-Revolution in Illinois.
Onr readers have been informed that
the democratic members of the Illinois
Legislature had introduced a resolution
into the Senate providing for a recess
until June, for the purpose, it is said, of
•getting iho result of the peace eonven
i ion which is to be held in Kentucky.—
i ho republican members had held a cau
cus and resolved that, unless this reso
lution were withdrawn and a pledge gi
ven that it would not be again intro
duced, they would refuse to legislate any
longer. The Lincoln members of the
Senate had already left Springfield.
The Chicago Times, of a date prior t o
'he completion of this high-handed
movement, says :
"These movements are incipient revo
lution, and it iliey shall be persevered
in they will he full blown revolution, for
under it ihe wheels of the State Govern
ment must necessarily stop.
The sole pretence in justilieation of
t lie.se desperate proceedings is, thuttiicy
are nece ; ary to obstruct Iho proposed
policy ot the Legislature iu favor of an
arnii lice, aud of efforts to settle the u.a
lional difficulties aud restore the Union
wiiliont further waste of human life!
11 i.- against Lhe policy of peace, and fur
the policy of relentless war, that this
revolution is set on foot—not war for the
restoration of the Union, hut war to de
stroy all hope for the restoration of the
Union in all time to eolae.
The spirit which stimulates the procee
dings is the same, only a thousand limes
more intensified, which stimulated pro
ceedingsdn the Illinois Legislature in
1801, to prevent the'appointinent of com
missioners to the peace congress at Wash
ington, and to prevent any peaceful set
tlement of lhe national difficulties. It.
is t ho spirit of very diabolism.
The majority of the Legislature must
not, and we know they will not, yield
lhe breadth of a hair to’the demands of
these revolutionists. The attitude of the
majority towards the minority must he,
return to your duly, or upon your heads
he the consequences of your refusal.
H civil war is inaugurated—ls the
torch of Die incendiary lights up the
homes of our citizens—if our streets are
to run with blood and now horrors to he
added to those which already encompass
our unhappy country—the republican
parly will he solely responsible therefor.
Their actions to day—their talk and
threats previously—mean nothing else
than revolution. Though we deprecate
such a result above all tilings, if it must
come, the democracy are prepared for
it. There are rights dearer than life,
as the disorganize™ and revolutionists
will discover if they persist in the mad
and desperate course they have resolved
to pursue.
The same paper of a later date, the
10th inut., says :
The Senate is still without a quorum,
and the State is virtually irt revolution.
An informal caucus was held to-night,
hut nothing definite was agreed upon.
The Democrats will not agree to pass
any appropriation hills, to postpone con
sideration of the peace resolutions, or,
in brief, to adopt any proposition, un
less Die Republican secodors will return
lo their seats and proceed in their legis
lative duties. They will no doubt go
hack tomorrow, when the appropria
tion hills and resolutions and oilier
measures will take their respective chan
ces. Ido not. think the appropriations
will get through until at least Die reso
lutions are adopted. •
If is still very possible, not to say
probable, that the Legislature will break
up in a row.
Tlie Uacoir Seizures.
Captain Cunningham, agent of the
government for the impressment of pro
visions in Middle and Southwestern
Georgia, called yesterday at this office
and-submitted his instructions from Die
War Department and superior officers in
regard lo the seizure of bacon at thirty
live cents a pound. These papers show,
conclusively enough, (what, however, wc
diil not doubt before,) that he himself
lias ample warrant from his superiors
for the impressment; hut we are puzzled
to reconcile these proceedings of the War
Department with the language of Dio
President, used some few weeks ago to
Congress, in a communication in answer
to some inquiries in regard to seizures
of tliis character.
' (’apt. Cunningham states that lie finds
the supplies of meat in the country gen
erally pretty large—averaging lie sup
poses nt least "fill to 400 pounds to the
hand, and the people generally willing
to respond to the wants of the govern
ment. til regard toll le policy of fixing
lhe price ho says there would be no such
thing as price unless il were absolutely
fixed in this way. If the government
undertook lo buy, the operation in a
week would push tip the commodity be
yond all price, and people would* b«k
more unwilling to part with what they
can well spare, at Die most exorbitant
offer, than they are now at.tlic rate fixed
by the government.
The result, therefore, of any attempt
to buy, where all the surplus is needed,
would be a failure even at the most cs,
travagan* rales which could be offered.
This was satisfactorily shown by some
attempted operations of the government
in the same section in tlie article of fresh
pork last winter. There is no other
practicable alternative, but to the
price and take the article, anil the
great majority of' planters sec and
acquiesce in this state of facts with
commendable liberality and patriotism.
Some few make an outcry, and others
seek to evade Die impressment, but tlie
burden is imposed upon ail with as much
equality in respect to means and supply
as possible. The seizures are made for
our troops in Savannah.
We give the Captain’s explanation in
our own language, but embodying sub
stantially his ideas, so near as wc can re
collect. — Macon Trlcgraph, 28f//.

Xegro Soldiers.
The motive for bringing forward the !
bill f o r the enlistment of negro Soldiers j
jo obvious, in emancipation war will 1
never tie fought by I lie truly patriotic
~>i,l Ulirislian population of the North ;
Ihe lime is fast approaclAig when no
inducement will keep in the army that
large majority of its rank and tile which
will not tight for the negro ; the radicals
have no idea of exposing themselves to
(he perils of warfare; Greeley’s 900,000
and Andrew’s “swarms” which they al
leged to be only waiting for the emanci
pation policy, have not manifested the
least sign of stirring; and there really
seems nothing left for the Abolitionists
but to call upon the negro to put on
arms for the cause of his people.
We need not say that this terribly de
grading resori would he entirely need
less, if Greeley anil Andrew would only
make their boasts good, neither of whom
have as yet isetted a <utnmooft far th*
purpose. Gov. Andrew, it is trust, has
obtained “authority” from the Secretary
of War to raise troops of African descent
in this State, and if he is able to enlist a
single regiment here, or half of it, now
that the question is one of the down
right fight, we will agree to give him
credit for the very great exertioue which
will he indispensable for him to use to
insure success. Ac for Greeley, so far
n - we have seen, he bat) net made a soli
'avy allusion to his “three times three
..undrul thou, j.ud.” since the proclama
j non came out.
A c. cay the project is » degrading one
—which will make our latest posterity
blush for us that we bad S1) little man
hood in us as to call to our aid on the
field of mortal strife, for the defence of
“the land of tjie free and. the home of
the brave,” a race of inferiors to do for
in wlial wc, puufc'ohedly, by adopting
such a measure, have not the spirit, en
ergy and wisdom to effect for ourselves.
Truly, the men who concocted and voted
for such a bill can only be taken to have
reached the lowcßt stage of human de
gradation and dishonor. Such an argu
ment need not be pursued into details,
for the whole force of It occurs at once
to any umn with a spark of manly feel
ing in hie bosom
The reasons of a practical nature
against the bill are a plenty as black
berries. Nobody doubts that black men
may lie brave and often are so ; but one
tiling is certain, that neither black nor
white soldiers can lie so unless they
stand upon some fooling of equality;
and Dial can never lie in any army com
posed of both races, except when the
dependent is fighting with and for his
master.
(in Die other hand, the idea that any
one hut a madman or a scoundrel would
think of arming one hundred and fifty
thousand negroct to serve iu a single
body, or iu ally number of considerable
bodies, or that the expectation could he
entertained by any body, that a few
white officers, unable to restrain white
soldiers from crime, could hold black
ones in from the most horrible barbari
ties, argues a degree of truly inconceiv
able infatuation.
Indeed, the whole thing is preposter
ous from the start, and we should only
be saved from the ferocities which might
ensue from attempting to carry such an
act into operation, by its utter imprac
ticability.
It is as idle a scheme as Mr. Linroln’s
proclamation, which lie said beforehand
would not free a negro, and which has
not freed a negro.
