the daily times, City Official Journal. Vote‘of Thank At a meetiug held by the members oi tho • •Franklin Rifles,” [from the city of Apalachico la,] at their camp in tho city of Columbus, Ga. t on the ninth day of April, the following preamble and resolutions, was unanimously adopted : Whereas, The “Columbus Guards” have, by their kindness and courtesy in tendering to us the use of their tents and implements of cooking, made us comfortable, and taught us that although “strangers in a strange land,” the soldier always finds in tho hearts of his fellow soldiers a warm place; and as wo will always remember with much kindness and respect each and every one who wears the badge of the “Columbus Guards.”— Therefore be it Resolved, That tho “Franklin Rifles,” a3 a small return for the many kindnesses shown them by the “Columbus Guards,” hereby tender them their hearty thanks. Resignation! in the Anny Reported since March 26th, IS6I. Captain L. McLaws, of Georgia, Seventh In fantry. Captain It. 11. Anderson, of South Carolina, Second Dragoons. Captain Charles S. Winder, of Maryland, Ninth Infantry Captain Josiah Gourgas, of New York, Ordi nance Department. First Lieutenant Thos. Williams, of Virginia, First Infantry. First Lieutenant H. B.

Cooper, of Virginia, Second Artillery. What a beautiful comment the following is up on a good housewife: ‘To hear her converse, you would suppose she did nothing but read ; to have looked through the department, you would have supposed she never read.” It is the opinion of a cotemporary that wood goes further when left out of doors than when it is well housed. Fie says some of his went half a mile. If a man could be conscious of all that is said of him in his absence, ho would probably become a very modest man indeed. “Havo you read my last speech 7” said a vain orator to a friend. “I hope so,” was the reply. Presumption end self conceit will overshadow tbo brightest attainments. A Troublesome Church Member. —Tho fol lowing story, in regard to a class of exceedingly troublesome church members, is related by the celebrated John B. Gough: A man had migrated from ehurah to church, breaking up each as ho passed-. At length he found himself in the Presbyterian church, where ho was making great progress. The preacher, in great distress, said to one of the elders: “What shall wo do with him?” “Oh roplied the eider, “I have been praying to tho Lord to send him to hell!” “Oh, brother, what do you mean?”— “Mean what I say; I hope he will get to hell; he would do good there; he would break up the es tablishment in six weeks.” During the past three months four hundred and seventy persons have been killed nnd woun ded by the Indians in Texas. OBITUARY- Heath has again invaded the ranks of our com inanity, and stricken down one of our most nsoful and valuable citizens, Samttel J. llatcheb died on the 10th inst. He was born in Chester field County, Va., on the ISih September 1812, and removed to this city ia the year 1836, where he has ever since resided, commanding the re spect and confidence of all our people. If Samuel Hatcher ever had an enemy he nev er deserved one, for his integrity and purity of character prompted lrm to the full and faithful discharge of all tho duties of eitizm, friend, hut band, father and master. The death of such a man is at all times a loss to an entire communi ty, but how inconceivably great is such loss to his more immediate circle of friends and family, lo his bereaved wife and children, this cornmu— t'ity can only offer the most heartfelt sympathy, and commend them to the God of the widow »nd the fatherless. * jZSJ'Richmond, Va., papers please copy.

For the Eurpose of affording an opporturity to all who may u willing to take partin this loan, we propose to have hooks opened on the 17th day of April next, at the following points, and at such places as we may hereafter designate, viz: Savannah, Augusta, 'Macon, Columbus. Atlanta, Mtlledgevilie, Athens and Rome. Special notice of the place where the Books will be opened, and of the persons appointed for this purpose, at each of those points, will be in due time given. Below we submit a statement from the Sec retary, which, in connection with the act, is plainly e\ planalory of the nature and character otlheloan And we express the confident hope that our fellow citizens will approve ot this direct appeal to the peo ple, rather than to foreign capitalists, tor the means of carrying on our new Government; and that all poseened of the means will feel it their duty to avail themselv< s os an opportunity which will enable them to make an entirely safe and profitable investment, and at the same time, contribute aid to the cause of patriotism and their country.

FIVE MILLIONS of this most advantageous in vestment will be offered to the public on the ITtli of April ensuing, and every citizen throughout; the Confederate States will have iho opportunity of ta king a share of the benefit, and. at the same time, of sustaining the cause of his country.

The inter est is at EIIHT PER CENT per annum, payable every six months at all our principal cities. The debt has the very unusual and important se curity of a duty of one-eighth of a cent per pound, or about G 2 cents per hale, on all cotton exported.— This duty, under all circumstances, of peace or war, secures the punctual payment of the interest, and furnishes a sinking fund for the redemption of the principal. The coupons, w hen due, are receivable iu payment of the duty on cotton, and are thus made available as coin, everywhere in country. la order to enable allportious of our people to take a part of this valuable investment, and to exhibit then common interest in raising funds for the common da teuce, books of subscription will be opened at th« cities and principal interior towns; five per cent, ruust bo paid iucash at the time ot subscription, and the remainder on orbefore the Ist ot May—in teres to run from the date of such .payment. Persons de siring to secure their subscriptions, may pav in cash the whole amount,and take a receipt for the delivery of bond® ot stock. To equalize the rate of subscrip tion at al’. points, and to enable ail persons conven iently to subscribe, current bank notes of ihe place will be received at their market value in coin. in ease of an over subscription, preference will be ffiven first to those who pay down their wbolesuh serin ior; next to subscribers ot *SO; neit to subscri GwofSoO.
