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.

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.

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.

During the in* tensely cold weather many of our soldiers suffer ed wjth pneumonia, and many died without ever having seen a physician.

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.

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.

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.
