We hope every lady in LaG range lias read the appeal, by ft member of the Sol diers’ Aid Society, which appeared in otir paper of last week. It was a slicing appeal. It wns touching, and the female heart that could resist it must be callus indeed. We wish wo cauld send such uii appeal to every woman’s and man’s heart in the whole Con federacy. Every ear shotild hear its patri otic sTratmr—trarrcnmir.,v «wrt sacred tion to the cause of humanity—to the cause of our naked and shoeless soldiers. Groat God! is there u I'emulo heart—is-there heart in La Grange that duos not l-uapoml to that appeal ? Wc do not bcliovo there rfie many. The ovidt-nco is iijit want tug, wcore told, that,there are a few—a very few—-hearts that have not*been touched by the sad and Biekoniiig naratives of the sufi’ciings of onr naked and destitute soldiers. How many of you that have blankets up on your beds while onr solders liuvo not the "wrapping of their linger” wherewith to be covered? Can yon quietly repose upon your downy beds at night and not, ilJpk of the soldier who is stuuding. a shivering,-barefoot ed sentinel, without anything to rover his ehoitlders in tlio cold and dump nTmOfipjierr? If you think of him and. hnve-a ,hciiit r yon must sympathize with him and in;,witling to give np your last blanket for his vplief. Von do not need blankets when quilts- and -com- forts will answer yonr purposes' d.-i well.-'- The soldiers cannot use quills very well In camps, because it taken too long to dry them when wet. lllunkels can bo quickly dried; and, therefore, lio one ought to keep their blankets if they f(/tvc Ijuiltn of' CHtUlorls, dr can get them. In short, t-vtippy blanket that possitily uuu be .spared ought to Lie sent forthwith. Again wo argo .upon : the Women of La- Grunge to come forward umf give 1 heir aid and contributiopH to the Ladies'SuidhM s'So ciety. Tlie memters of the society need help — tlioy desiro credit"for what they have dime ami are striving to do. Let nrttao lag be hind; but be lip and doing while ifiey eiiii do good and relieve the .distresses of our poor soldiers. Let every mini drnwoyt his nioiiey anil short' that he has a line patriotic heart by his liberal contributions. Let there be no laggards in this grout, and nolile work. A Cliuiicc to get Salt. We call tho attention of all who arc inter ested in procuring salt to the advertisement of thu “Urnntvillo Salt Manufacturing Gum- puny,” which will be organized at (j'rnhtville to-morrow. Those who have not rpeured a supply of salt should lose no time in sending in thoir subscriptions at once; for we have no doubt but that tho proposed stock of $50,(100 in the Granfvillo company tVi|l lie taken up immediately. Wd'urge ove%y body Is make every possible effort UipnVcurO salt in whatever way they can; for we'Jinn as sure them that it will be idle for them-to expect to get suit without some risk arid expense. The Grulilvillc company ivjjl coin- nionce operations at tho salt works in Ala bama as soon us it is organized. Kettles, Ac., have already boon purchased in part, and the prospects of tho company arc good for a supply of salt to its stockholders. Dr. Jno. F. Moreland and the editor o! Ibis paper ure authorized -to leeeivo and re ceipt for subscriptions to stock in said com pnny. Let no one delay muiumii. - DKATiror A UooB Ottizen.— Last week we published a notice of the death of.uhe of our moat highly respected citizens, Mr. Ciiahi,us I). Pollen, long engaged in thu incpoauUb- busiuess uudsr thu firm name of “-Fallen & Cox.” lie was about forly-scveo years ol age. Mr. P. was remarkiiblo fur bis amiable- ness of ohaructei* and us a limn who pm- sued, us nearly as any rnun could, "the even tenor of Ium way"—not interfering with thu affairs, of or speaking evil, of uny liody. He was certainly thu most quiut, unobtrusive, unostentatious mnn we ever knew. Plain, practical and scrupulously honest In all I hr walks of life, be was n model of a man; and his serene life, virtuous character, and his entire freedom from all oulwurd pretensions, is only fully appreciated und admired now that he has passed from us to that laud ol rest which remuioeth alone for the good and the noble. Ilis demise was a glorious tri umph over death and the grave! Requievcat in face ! The New York Herald. We have received this delectable sheet, of the let iiilM., with the "compliments of Lieut. N. W. Miller, of the 81st Georgia regiment, Into • prisoner of war at Fort Delaware.”— If our people would bcliovo tho Herald, the backbone of the Confederacy wus broken at the battle of Sharpsburg; that onr govern ment is on tho wane, and is ready to agree to any sort ot terms of peace, so that we could end tho war. Tho Herald beforo us says “it is evident, from the tone which the rebel journals Imvc assumed, tlmt a desire for peuco is gaining strength in the Smith j” und that it was “reported, although upon vague rumor, that a commissioner, or some* thing of that kind,” Imd “been appointed by tho rebel Congress to make p/opositious of peuco upon certain terms.” The Herald produces garbled extracts from the Riclqinmd papers to prove the waning fortunes of our government, and says: “Now, to say nothing 'if the rumors afloat of the tlmt.xotpmliBteii, -under in. slructions embracing,q qualified restoration of-the Union, we think it apparent, from the general tone and some special remark’s of tliQ Richmond journals, that Jeff Davis and his ruling Confederates are beginning to be sick of the war and their gloomy prospects ol Southern independence.'” Continues the Herald)—*'All these confessions and opinions from the central organs of the rebellion, be tray the symptous of a speedy collapse;” ami that ,‘‘the simple truth is,” us it duelurc-d tho next day, "the buttle of Aniieiatn has bryocu the backbone uf the rebellion.” This is the way in which tho spirits of thii Northern people are kept up by their pret;s. By garbled quotations from Southern jour nals, tlioy nitrite the people of tho North be- litive that ire; ourselves, ebtmldcr oar caiWc hopeless, and that tho Ljiicqln dynasty baa bnt to proseeuto'tlie wur cA»or,gotically for u few inoiioidays, woeks or months in order to “cruali the robellioti.” Thiis (he wer is eon- tinned, a lid madg tb appear popular among the people.

Miller will please accept our thunks lor Iris attention. & ''ll SB ht l^tr Perrfi^Hst K Northu.m papers of the Mjjjifo contain dis- patelies from Kentucky IB the cfFectthat Bragg’s army attacked'two divisions of Me- Obok’s corps, near Perryville, on the 8th.—— Tho fighting was doaporato.
