jutr- The New Orleans Delta, says: “ Confed
erate Treasury notes are now to be considered ai
the currency of the South. The action of Gov.
Moore has removed ail doubt and eensitiveness
on the course of our banks. We expect to hear
of some harping and complaining, but it will
avail nothing. Seldom has it fallen to our lot to
chronicle proceedings of such an important, just
and judicious nature, as have to-day been en
rolled on the records of financial history.
jadf*The Richmond Whig of Monday says:—
“We are informed, and requested to state, that
Major Vandever has opened a depot on Main
street, nearly opposite the Spotswood Hotel, for
the purpose of supplying the Alabama troops
with clothing, at cost.
The stamps for the use of the Confederate
poßtal service will be ready for delivery in a few
days. The five cent stamp is embellished with a
likeness of President Davis.
Brig. Gen. II A Wise arrived here Sunday
from Greenbrier, and proceeded to Laburnum,
the country seat of his brother-in-law J Lyons.
War News. —Things on the Potomac remain
as they were last week. The Macon Telegraph
says :
“In ttio absence of news, we perceive that some
of onr brethren of the quill are trying all their
powers and taxing their ingenuity totheuemost
to find fault with the administration of Jefferson
Davis and Alexander II Stephens. Like the
Lincoln county boy in the “Georgia Scenes” they
are only trying to see “how they mout light” if
they bad grounds logo upon.” •< :
2sS*-The New Orleans Delta understands
that a petition, emanating from a number of
merchants and others, has been, or is to be,
presented to Gov. Moore, requesting him to
take measures for stopping the shipment of
cotton to that city during the existence of the
blockade, or while it is threatened with attack
l>v i httaenemy.
v>«Qf*"Gen Fremont's proclamation occupies
largely the attention of the Northern press. The
New York Express states that “President Lin
coln in his anti-Fremont proclamation letter” ha*
virtually killed the proclamation. It represents
that Dr. Abe is beginning to comprehend the
“negro part of the crisis,” and sees what was
long predicted, that the adoption of principles
like those set forth in Fremont’s bid for the
Presidency are sure to cost his Government more
than they come to. The Express thinks that
ten thousand lives »ud, $100,000,000 will hardly
pay the damage of Gen Fremont's manifesto.—
Its efteefs upon “loyal nfCfi” in Missouri and
Kentucky are said to be disastrous, while the
rebels arc emboldened and stimulated to greater
energy.
Fremont in Trouble.
Fremont appears to be in considerably more
t Uau “a peck of trouble.” lie dotails some of his
grievances in a letter to “a friend in New York,”
which letter is published in the Cincinnati Ga
zette of the 28th utt., as follows .•
St. Louis, Sept, 26, 1861.
My Dear Sir : 1 leave at eight in the morning
aud send you this hurried note in the midst of
the last arrangements before starting. We have
to contend with an enemy having no posts to
garrison, no lines of transportation to defend or
guard, whose whole force can be turned at
will to any one point, while we have from Leav
en vorth to Cairo, and from Fort Scott to Padu
cah, to keep protected.
I wi3h to say to you, that though the position
is difficult, I am competent to it and to the ene
my in the field. lam not able at the same time
to attend to the enemy at home. It is a shame
to the country that an officer going into the field,
his life in his hand, solely actuated by the de
sire to serve his country and win for himself its
good opinions with no other object, shUsl4 be
destroyed by asystem of conceited attacks, utHr
y without ioundadation. Charges are spoken
u when there are no charges; explanations when
there are none to be made. What is the object
of the repetition oi these falsehoods, except to
tunuhanze the public mind to the idea that
something is wrong.
Already our credit, which was good, is shaken
m consequence of the newspaper intimations of
my being removed.

Nortiirn Hon on.—The Chicago Tribune easily
demonstrates the looseness of Abolition merala.
After announcing the fact of the prisoners re
leased by Gen Price at Lexington, Missouri;
took an oath not to fight against the Confederete
forces during the war, that paper says :
But one sentiment prevails in the r&sks of our
gt.lant Irish brigade, and that is to demand that
they be re-officered and led into the field to re
venge their reverses and win back their noble
commander. And they will do it Let them he
generously cartel for, for they have wrought well
and gloriously. They will remain at Quincy
until they arsptid off. Let them be at ones re
armed and accoutrid.
The prisoners taken at Lexingi- c were let off
after being swoin to neutrality in the war. What

Heroic Young Man. —The Pulaski (Tenn.)
Citizen has been premitted to make the follow
ing extract from a private letter from Augusta,
Arkansas, under date of the 29th ult;
Amioug the most amusing incidents that occur
red at the Springfield battle was this : One of
the enemy’s artillery drivers was killed iu their
retreat, and the officers called for someone to
take his place: whereupon one of our boys who
had been taken prisoner volunteered to drive for
them, and was told to mount the horse, which ho
did in dublc quick time; but instead of following
them, turned the horse and gallopod back to our
army, bringing the cannon with him. He was
ffired at by both parties, hu’, laying fiat on
the horse, ho landed unhurt, yelling and shout
ing to our boys every jump—“don’t shoot! don’t
shoot!’’
We learn from another cource that the above
heroic youth was a Giles eountsin—a son of Mr.
John Atkins of this county.
He enlisted in Arkansas, and for this and
other daring feats upon the bloody battle field
at Oak Hills, he was sought out designated
by Gen. McCulloch as the “brave Arkansian.”
He thanked the General aud told him he prefer
red to be called a Tennessean.
The Sumter Not Lost. —We ara delighted
to find the following statement in the Richmond
Examiner, of the Ist. The French corvette d ; d
bring some happy news after all:
We have been much gratified to learn that the
Navy Department has late and authentic intelli
gence respecting that merciless plague of Yan
kee skippers, the Confederate steamer Sumter.
But lately the Yankees announced that she was
at the bottom of the sea, and went so far as to
say that Providence had something to do with it.
On both subjects they appear to be badly inform
ed. The French war vessel which came up the
Mississippi the other day brought dircet news,re
ceived from the British vessel of war Solent,
that, on the 14th ult., the Sumter was coaling at
Trinidad, one of the windward isles of the West
Indies. The Solent had just come from Trim
dad. We presume by this time the übiquitous
rebel craft is again on her trackless war-path,
carrying terror and destruction before her.
[From the Newberry S. C. Conservative.]
Something More about Sperits... A Sarmint.
“And there were nine of them, all standing
round the door, and the last one of them said
they would take sugar in there’n, and a little
hoy, eight years old, says he, Pap, I’ll take a
little if it kills me.
My dear brethren: The last sarmint I preach
ed you, was on the subject of sperits. In that
discourse I told you of the different kind of sper
its, evenly of the sperits of just men made per
fect, for there was “nine of them all standin’
round the door, and the last one of them said
they would take sugar in there’n, and a little
boy, only eight years old, says he, Pap, I'll take
a little if it kills me,” and in the present dis
course, I will tell you of the use that is made
of sperits.
In the first place, my brethren, there are those
who don’t use those gifts of natur in their puri
ty, nor as their own conscience dictates —for in
stance the candy-rfafee—but they are in the
habit of pouring out tangleleg and buckeye in
killin’ doses, and they are gulped down by the
people in summer and winter, in seed time and
in harvest, and the “last one of them said they
would take sugar in there’n, and a little boy on
ly eight years old, says' he, Pap, I’ll take a little,
if it kills me!”
Now, my brethren, do you spose these candy
daies keer for the good of the country, or the
iuternal comfort of the people ? Not a bit; for
es they had a sly chance, and they thought they
could make anything by it, they would take a
feller off by himself and treat him to pop skull
and red eye, and there might be nine of them all
standin’ round the door, and the 1-a-s-t one of
them, if they was axt, would *sny they would
take sugar in there’n.
But my brethreng, there is another class of
sperits rappers, who are very different from this
class. The objection I have to them is that they
are too keerful. If you keep a look out. you
can a most, any time see one of those fellows stop
off to the spent land, by his self, and under the
pretense of the muly-grubs. or some other ail
ment, call for a four fingered load for his stum
mic sake. I have seen them a slippiu’ away
from their friends, when, “there was nine of them
all standin’ round the door, and the last one of
them said they would take sugar in there’n and
a little boy only eight years old, says he, Pap,
I’ll take a little if it kills me !” A many a hard
shell Baptist; blue-bellied Presbyterian, cavortin
Methodis, and high-falutin Piscopal b’long to
this sect, and they are expectin’ some day to
play upon that “harp of a thousand strings ;
sperits of just made perfect,” but in that day it
will be no go, for they will all “be standin’ round
and the last one of them will take sugar in there’n
but there will be no sugar.”
Bat my there is still another class
of speritual people, who are always standin’
round the door. Sometimes I want to axe one
of my brethring to take a drink with me, a drink
with sugar in it, and I can’t do it, “for there are
nine of them all standin’ round the *door,
and the last one of them said they will
take sugar in tbere’n and the little boy only
eight years old, says he, Papa, I’ll take a little
es it kills me.” These fellows, my brethring,
never buy any sperits of their own, but they
drink the sperits of everybody else. In election
times they stick to candyrfale* who treats the
most, and they may always be seen “standin’
round the door." They never lose sight, much
less smell, of the critter, and they are not par
ticular about having sugar in ther’n—but they
had something rather.
In conclusion, my dear breethring, beware of
the candydates, look with a wishful eye upon the
brother who drinks his self, and if you should
happen to be at Fairfax Ccurt house, or Massas
Junction, tarry not in the plains, but fly to the
mountains, for there are nine of them all stan
din’ round the door, and the last one of them
all said they would take sugar in ther’n, and the
little boy eight years old, says he, Pap, I’ll take
a little es it kills me!” But when you go to
drink, drink a good article, and never go in with
out axin’ me, or some other one of the breeth*
ring—for /‘there are nine of them a standin’
round the door, and the last one of them said
they would take sugar in ther’n, and a little boy
only eight years old, says he, Pap, I’ll take a
little es it kills me !”
I IBcrn the Cotton Crop. —l am one of those,
Messrs. Editors, who do not believe that the
Yankees can whip us, or even penetrate the in
terior of tho Confederate States without being
chased out at Bull Run speed, yet it is well to
be prepared for every contingency.
We are all ready for any and every sacrifice,
and 3r would suggest that, if a landing should be
effected in any cotton State, every planter shonld
have & torch ready to put fire to his own cotton
erop, rather than it should fall into the hands of
the enemy.
