As was expected, the enemy opened yesterday
OL Fort Powell, which commands Gram’s Pass.
Thai taken. :t will be hardly necessary for ihe
enemy to run the hazard of an encounter wire
Forts Ityorgau aud Gaines. Tho possession of it
opens a passage to tho bay of Mobile. Wo are
just vow o r .a; of uothmg ; but wo have reason
to belivo ih.n Fort Poweli cannot bo taken by

manner oi Fort Wagabr, whose gallant defence
was continued so long, uni provoked so much
admiration b-< h in this c untry and that of the
so calle ! United Skates.

<s iina.l, it is huge enough for what in ueeessa

reason jo suppose that Fort J’Oweil can be laßen
Ana day, or much sooner thjin such tune as ;s
sufficient' to ssiarve out the garrison.
We hope so, for it is very important to bo hold,
We have a ram here in our Waters which, 'airly
ati-jat iu .hi harbor, is sufficient to keep the bay

of the chief purposes of the present atta -.K is to

Wcea that vessel may bo ini »p sition to save
the bay from itn> possessi-.-n of the enemy is not
known to us j but we are certain that any means
to put ir in position would ba given by the
patriotic ci z ms.
But the beginning of the War on us at Fort
Powoil ought not to alarm our people. The
enemy’s boats are not calculated tor flying, or
toratraveliing over land] and if there be the
proper stout hearted ness at t.lm fort, and a rea
sonable degree of dibige ico in putting the ram

Orn Jackson du Shufl'ters,
The extract below is from the correspon

placed at our disposal:
Winchester, Va., Nov, 22, '6l
My Dear Colonei:—Your letter, and also
that of my much esteemed friend, the Hon.
Mr. in behalf of Mr. A , reached
me to day; and I hasten to reply that I have
no place to which, at present, I can prop
erly assign him. I know Mr A. person
ally, and was favorably impressed by him.
But it a person desires office in these "limes,
the best way for him to do is at once to
pitch into service somewhere, and work
with such energy, zeal and success, as to
inr press those around him with the contjc
tion that such are his merits he must be
advanced, or else the interests ot the pub
lic service must setter, ll Mr A should
mention the subj ct to you again, 1 think
you might not only do him, bub the coun
try good service by reading this part of my
letter to him. My desire is to make merit
the basis of my recommendations and se
lections.
“Yoar much attached friend,
“T. J. Jackson ”
A mors-'i so choice will he greatly rel
ieved by tbe pubac palate just now. We
have not ihe slightest conjectures®!* to tht?
identity ol the person referred to, nut there
is still, after two years, a tribe of these im
portunate applicants for good, easy places,
who would not damage their patriotism in
. the least, should they inwardly digest what
General Jackson so saiilhbly prepared for
the* II >n. Mr •” asking office “in be
half of Mr A ” A keener cut we have sel*
tiom seen, or one more genteelly given.—
It should take the grand rounds through
our Confederacy. Might not our govern
ment, in fact, do well to have an edition
printed at the public expense, and distribu
ted to our officers according to their need?
Quite a convenience it would be, saving
ime and trouble, to have one prepared to
hand to every such office«hunter a’ theife
tent door, lt is very surprising as well as
disgusting to find what sturdy beggars some
of our Hon. fol. s, so called, have become
during this war.
It is but fair, however, to say that this
squad of military mendicants is compara
tively as .-mall as it is contemptible. The
readiness with w hich ali classes of our peo
ple—the sons of poverty and tlm heir* of
fortune, side by side—have laid their cost
li-st. sacrifices upon the common altar, is
truly wonderful. It has never been sur->
pas.-ed, No grander monument of this con
flict will remain for Wie admiration of p is-
Tnat a lew ‘’beggarly elements”
f-hould be scattered lu re nnd mere is their
own shame and for our sorrow; out we*cam
help ir. They would like to pass along in
the train that bears our o wim on to its final
triumph, provided they may be smugly
srowed away in some car that is iron clad
without, and soft cushioned within: that is
they don’t like to pay the price of their pas
sage. Weil, if the poor fellows decline
General Jackson’:* wholesome advice—if
they must b ‘ canied through.us so many
“Dead Heads,” then let them be labelled
with it to all generation's.—[Oeuirai Pretby

CONFiiDfiBATS PaiSONEUS IN KNOXVILLE.—
Tho following extract from a correspondent in
the Atlanta Register will give our readers some
idea ofthe treatment Confederate prisoners re
ceived in Knoxville: —
0 ii federate prisoners in Knoxville are shame*
fully barbarously treated. No fires were kind
led in tho prtecn cells and wards during the
bitter cold weather of- January and February.
Gan C.«. ter woe? advised of ihe ;act, i>y one of
our ladies, condemn* and such barbarity, but the
superini.eniien• ot rite p.rison, one L iut. Bhaw,
an Ohio shoemaker, was utterly devoid of aid
human sympa by. Provisions were scarce,
broad was made of wheat bran, and harl.iy
enough of that to allay the pangs of hunger.
There was a betrer supply of bacon, but the
prisoners had Do fires to 000 k it. Their rations
were necessarily smt to families to be coked.
B'ft for th.' generosity and kindness of true
Southern women every prisoner wotrd have
perished by hunger end cold. Many died for
want of food and ruel. They bad no blankets ;
of these they were deprived when first taken
prisoners. Forty biaake's were taken from as
many of our men when they were cap'tired be
cause they were marked “U. S.” At first ihe
lauios were f eely permit-red to visit our soldiers
in prison) fiaaliy tfie privelege was denied ibcrn
aud the pricou rs received nothing except what
passed through Shaw’s hands. During the in*
tensely cold weather many of our soldiers suffer
ed wjth pneumonia, and many died without ever
having seen a physician. After the ladies were
denied the pr velege of visiting the jaii, nothing
was known of occurrences within its walls. liow
many died from neglect, cold, and hunger, cun
never be known.. One ma.i was found frozen to
death in prison.
The War.
We have all been waiting for the spring
to open wiGiitsdry weather and firm roads
' for Geo. Grant’* grand movement from
Chattanooga, ami v-e have taken tor gran
ted that G ’-rgia or V-rg'mia, or ho:h, were
to he the r>- j etive points of his advancing
columns. R cent events indicate to our
mind a change of this published Yankee
I programme, and \\v*\ iv.e grand movement
to close up the rebellion has already begun
with the daring march ot Sherman. Count
ing his column, and those three other coU
nms which the indomitable Forres* is v£ait«*
ing to fight at Oxford, aud that third array
of which we get Delphic accounts, threat
ening to march southward by way of
vtlle, we have which in our judg
ment will embrace the whole avauaole
stn iig'ii of Gem Grant. Report says he
lias leg3 than 10 000 men at Chattanooga,
and we have seer-, tha: Gen. Longstreet ha*
. proved more than a match for the Federal
force in hft font li our theory is correct
General Johnston, who is now no doubt
watching theee movemen's with h'a keen
s-' iiierly eve, must soon move to take a

forced to yield to the enemy, for the time
being, important localities, or even large
cities; for, if we beat the grand army of the
enemy, ah these points will easily fall back
into our hands. Wo are • pursuaded that
the Yankees are making their last desper
ate attempt of the war, and that they are
hastening it for political effect, as well as to
get ali they can out of their old troops be«
fore their terms of enlistment expire. If
we foil them in tbi*, we shall have crippled
the Black Republican power, beaten Lina
colti tor tiie Pres dortcy, pricked the Yankee
bubble of finance and put an end to the war.
No battle is won until it is fought, and our
people should bear this rn mind, under the
terrifying influences of these coi. ssal inva*
sions. Stand up to the fight, for there is
always hope, oven under the most adverse
circumstances. Such are not our present
circumstances; for ts the enemy is pressing
to mass a large army in the centre of ffie
Gonfede.acy, fie is incurring immense haz
ards, aud we have the power to chastise
his rashness. Let this power be used with
courage and determination, and peace and
independence are at the end of tins bloody
lesson, — [Mobile Register.
Grant as a Can.lidate,
The Sr. Louis Democrat, m an article
upon the above subject, says:
'Among others na ~ed in connection with
the: presidency is General Grant, and so
evident and numerous are the indications
m fits favor, that oia claims, as a possible
candidate, can tio longer be ignored, la
fact, if no disaster interrupts his military
career, he certainly stands an excellent
chance ol beii g the next President, We
have no means of knowing whether Gen-
Grant is politcaily ambitious or not.
Gen. G ant has, we believe, been pro
fessedly a Democrat. While this circum
stance would doubtless only tend to make
him more oonoxious, to copperheads, it
would recommend him to Dearly all those
known as war Deuiorate. These consti
tu>e, it must be.adirmted, a very respecta
ble mmority. Then no one questions the
strength ot Grant’s hold upon tho army,
which, other things being equal, would
doubtier- rather vote for him than any
other man. Combine these elements, and
no very considerable outside support would
be needed to insure supcess. About the
principles of Gen Grant, vve suppose there
i« very iutle ground for uuceriainty. No
man has acieu more redieaiiv tliau he.—
iie has dealt shivery more staggering biows
and apparently with a more hearty will, than
auy man hi the nation.
He has exhibited no scruples about the
negro, never hesitating to employ him in
any capacity in which ue couid make him
u- elul m defeating tho rebel enemy, and in
more than one of his reports has acknowl*
edged the value of his service in a man
ner which would be oighiy repugnant to
conservative taste. .In the only letter we
know of ins writing, in which the least re*
ierence hr made to politics, his allusion to
slavery as the cornerstone of the rebellion;
afuHhe treatment to which it is entitled,
has the most radical ring. We have not
the siiglftest information as to whether Gen.
Grant would consent to be a presidential
candidate . no\ but we do know ihat Uie
and. cision of such questions ucaiTy always
Tt ists with the pwopie. When the people
are willing, the candidate is rareiy iound
tin Willing, it appears to be extremely
dithouil for the most modest oi men to
decline the tender ot public confidence.
From MisEisAijrpi.
The advacco ot Q«uera! Sir rman s is still the
subject ot go'rerat comment in this community.
Ail serfs o;' tiiscourag ng rumors are retailed
upon our streets, most, of wnicb, however, wo
beiievtt it, be sheer fabrications.
We lsarn from persons fronr Domopolis, that
General Poik has crossed (he Tombigbee at
Moscow, ten rniies bo ow Deirfopclis, with his
army—with the exception of Gh.n. French's
division, which 43 at Datnopolis. It is expected
ih.t the enemy will be checked at the Tombig*
boo, and that a battle will talte jilace there in a
day or two. Tbe banks of the Tombigbee fur
ninh excellent natural fortifications and a splon
d,d line of defense. It may, however, bo sound
poiicv to allow ihe enemy to cross the Tombig
bee. If he is permitted to do so his destruction
is absolutely certain, if our commanders and
troops meet pubiic expectation. If his force is
co larger than ihe (olograph maxes it, there ia
no escape for him except 'hcougk tho supiaenass
of the people und soldiery, or too most extraor
dinary want of skill in our commanders.
Wa still think tho further hherman comes this
way, the bettor it will bo for us, it our people do
tbeir duty.
The latest and most trustworthy advices we
have place the enemy at Meridian. Sunday
forenoon Lae entered tho place with a portion
ol his cavalry and destroyed everything wo could
not carry off that would be of any service to the
enatny. A cavalry fu;kt took place in town, ro
suiting in the enemy’s defeat. Lee drove theca
back to-the infantry support, and that evening
Meridian was green to tfem, cieared of ali the
government properiy, as well as railroad cars and
locomotives. Lee was compelled to burn some
of the rolling stock that eculd not ho got away.
Ye ter day a rumor was current ihat (ho Y&n*
