Igaridta JUxwate. MARIETTA GEO.. - FRIDAY MORNING MARCH 28. 1862. I er- —xr~z» : Counterfeit Notes. W’c have Been shown several Notes I < n the Augusta Savings Bank, ol the ' denomination of Fifty Cents, anthori- j tatively pronounced Counterfeit. The ! Spuriotiß very closely imitate the Gen-'! nine and it is difficult 'o distinguish ' them. Strong auspicious have been excited*-- that the Counterfeiting was done in thia place, but sufficient evidence has not been elicited to produce conviction or lead to urrests us yet. It was recently stated that “Shin Plasters” had been counterfeited in Rome, Ga. The style and execution of the genuine bills are so ordinary that any* rascal, so disposed, may counterfeit them, ayd render the counterfeit diffi cult of detection. The Sick Soldiers. It is said tjtere are about thirty-five hundred sick Soldiers now in Atlanta— Texans, Tennesseans, Arkansuuis, Lou isianians, Virginians, Kentuckians, Missourians and Alab mians. Every possible aid should be extended to At lanta in her efforts to provide for their comfort. ■ ■ ‘MR. YANCEY. Delivered a'spcech in New Orleans on the 13th inst. in which he said, what is now so well known, that we have nothing to hope from Europe. He said further, that. Europe only desired that the North and South •Should mutually exhaust themselves in the struggle and with this view the independence of the South would be recognized, if necessary to preserve it from subjugation. He said we must all stand together and rely upon ourselves. “If there is any in subordination, any mutiny, all will sink togoher.” —•*. ~ ’ Lincoln resorts to Cunning. Whatever opinions may be he ld in the South as to the cause of the War, Lincoln in his recent Message leaves no doubt as to what he regards as its cause, and that is juSt what a majority of the Southern people believed it to t.p, .it llw nnbu-t-tlm.l-uign of tllP.Rp. puoncan party to abolish slavery. Lincoln recommends to the Federal Congress, the passage of a resolution, pledging the government to extend pe cuniary' aid to such States as are wil ling to abolish the ins itution, and in one breath, tells the North that if they can stop the War by such a policy, they will save money, and the South, that it will be better for them to take it; under the present insecurity of slave pro perty, especially as he does not. intend to stop any. indispensable means to-preserve the Union. lids is designed to operate no doubt upon the border Slave States, with what effect time will soon show. OUR CONDITION. The South has now learned two very important facts. That we n list rely upon ourselves alone in this struggle— and, that it is', impossible to defend, at all points, our extended frontier. The result of the latter conviction is that the Government is rapidly drawing in our lines and concentrating our forces in such positions as to meet an inva ding army with something dike equal forces. The enemy may also soon find th.vt they have a frontier too extensive for defense, and the disadvantage under which we have labored may be thrown upon them. 1 hey will soon find their territory open to invasion—their forces scattered and their strength weakened by their advances. The policy now, of the war, on Hk p .rt of the South, is auspicious. The giv..i source of unea siness and alarm is the -supply of pro visions. Il we fall 111 tliis all is lost. Attorney General Tucker of Virginia, gives the opinion, which is no doubt law, that Postmasters are exempt from military duly. Bit” we hear it is the intention of the Postmaster Gener al, wherever lie can do so, to appoint women and men too ii firm or too old fur service in the field. Whenever it is ascettained that a party, young and able-bodied, has dodged into a Post office to escape military duty, la* will certainly travel. One of Gen*. Bragg’s regiments, ii is mid, now in camp in Kentucky, get their water in Tenncaree and drill in Virginia. 1 bey are right in the corner. THE MARIETTA WEEKLY ADVOCATE. From 8 ashvillc. The Atlanta Commonwealth publish- : vs a letter from Nashville, which says, I the Yankees are as numerous there as 1 flies, and arc constantly p .using to their j encampment at Murfn esboro’. It sja uks ! ot a number of desei ters arriving from ■ the Confederate side. Says that Andy j Johnson “our future Governor,” had) arrived and that he is going to call out { the militia. A Srt»AW.—Gen Buell has issued a notice that hereafter “military passes for persons going North, on the Cumber land river, or any point north thereof, or to any of the loyal States, are not r< quired.” _ —-—■ l"ne Norfolk coi respondent ol the Petersbug Aaynvs.f, learns that “there was a pleasure party on board the steam ship Cumberland the night before she was sunk. This, doubtless, accounts for the screams of the ladies on board, which were heard by our men on the Virginia.” Mr. Massay, member of the British Parliament, in a late speech at Tolford, declared “I! the eleven Con federate States were determined to be •free, no power on earth could reduce them again to subjugation, no high spirited people, no people of the Anglo- Saxon race, had over been held down in slavery, however small might be the area of their country, or however great the mi'itary force that overshadowed it. A meeting of the planters of Cun oil parish, Louisiana, was held ihe other day at Floyd. Among the resolutions passed was one resolving to destroy the whole cotton crop of that parish, rather than it should fall into the hands of the enemy. Coining from one of the hugest cotton communities in the South, this fact is significant. The Georgia Fact' ry and Athens- Factoiy have reduced the prices of yarns, osnaburgs, sheeting, &c. They give preference to those dealers who conform to their schedule of prices, ra ther than the speculator. Soldiers’ families arc to be supplied at wholesale prices. This ariangement goes into effect the first of April, and continues until an agreement to change shall be made ■ 1 it a.waiunumtl M'Shlii* l mid—ww—ww happen to know, says the Linchburg Viiginian, upon the authority of those who ought to be informed, that the ene- Biy had fallen back from Manassas to the Potomac, suspecting that Johnston was laying a trap for them. The crop of Limes and Lemons ia Florida is said to have b_cn very large the past seasoti, but there being no maiket, they are rotting upon the trees A suggestion has been made advising the people to bottle the juice and send it into the States.

Burn all ex cept what we need for home consump tion and one fifth of what we have will suffice for that. Burn the. Cotton! That is our true policy now. The most emi nent and reliable men of our country tell us so. Yes, burn it ; and burn it immediately I -• Let it be hauled out in to the fields and the ton h applied ! Just reflect upon the matter. We have three millions of bales to be dis posed of—three millions of bales we ourselves do not need. The North ex pects to get it ; she declares she will get it ; she is now fighting to get it.— She informs Europe that she will have it ore long, and Europe expects to get it through the North ! There is no doubt of this! I repeat, that our true policy is to burn it, and burn it noir.— We will settle the matter—we will prove our determination once and for ever. It will fall like a thunderbolt upon the North ! It will appal Europe ! It will prove that we are indeed in earnest It will be ihe means of shortening the war. I’ will precipitate matters Wo have supposed that our great cotton crop would- prove a bait to Eu rope 1 We were mistaken! Mr. Yan coy lias just returned and he t- Ils ns we must not look to the old world for intervention or sympathy! He tells us we must fight it out for ourselves or be enslaved. Amen I Burn the Cotton. It will secure for ns the respect of the world. It will be a terrible blow to the enemy. It will prove to the North the hopelessness of attempting to subjugate us. The gov ernment at Richmond, should take hold of the mutter, h should assume the responsibility of having it done. 'lhe government in such a time as this, when every thing is at stake, h m the'right' to seize or destroy any kind of property when necessary for the country’s salva tion PLANT GRAIN! Every available acre must be planted in grain. Tennessee and Kentucky are probably lost as far as their usual sup ply of grain and provisions aie con cerned, and if the Cotton States do not raise six times as much grain as they did last year we are starved out—wo arc ruined ! ——WlfFta ntw-.-iyS’ n Tt-HTiTin g- ’ ryetciTT'-"" Enormous quantities of provisions must unavoidcdly be wasted and lost in or der for our great army to be fed. Let the man who’ plants Cotton this year, more than enough for seed, be marked. He is a traitor ! He is a vile Shylock! Many thousands of the tillers of the soil of tie u,p country are in the army. They can no longer till the s< il. Their fields are lying fallow. Let their pla ces be supplied by the negroes of the low country, who have heretofore been making Cotton. * * * Northern News. THE X-ATE t'JUON VICTORIES AND THEIR RESULTS Under this head the New York Herald has an enthusiastic article, and seems almost run mad with joy. To show the ecstacy of the Yankee mind we . make an extract or mo t The occupation of Leesburg, on the Upper Potomac, by a detachment from the column of Gen. Banks, under the command of the intrepid Colonel Geary gives us the practical advantages of a great victory. Leesburg was the object of that lamentable blunder of Ball’s Bluff, the disasters of which, in a mill tary view, are now atoned for in the stampede of the rebels from the town and its defensive works, without even the show of resistance. It is manifest, we think, from their hasty evacuation ’of Leesburg,, that their late instructive defeats and re treats in North Carolina, Tenmss-e, Missouri and Aikansi.s have convinced the rebels in Virginia that their situa tion is exceedingly desperate, and that there is no such thing as Southern in vincibility against superior military combinations, appliances, tacilities and forces, by land and sea. But, witli+mX assuming- to anticipato the brilliant iiJ pending ,jt:s till.rat ion of Geß. McCleß lan’s ‘'masterly inactivity,” we may find in the present confusion and demorali zation of the rebellion in every quarter abundant evidences that the filial issue is completely within his control. Jeff. Davis and his Confederate rulers were not deceived by the ephemeral and delusive victory of Manassas ; they were content to hold their ground cm the delensive thn ugh the summer and autumn, in expectation that-“ King Cut. ton” would in the winter bring England to their rescue. The settlement of the Trent affair dispelled that illusion, ami the despondency -and imbecility of the rebel government from that day are as remarkable as its previous confidence and energetic action. In January, away down iu the wilds of Southern Kentucky, the important and decisive little Union victory n ;ar Somerset cainr off. It created a sensation of alarm throughout the South, compared with which our splendid naval successes at Cape Hatteras and Fort Royal produced only a ripple upon the surface of the water. The reason was, that, while Cape Hatteras and Port Royal touched no vital point, our Somerset victory made a serious breach through the in land defensive line of the rebellion. The inverse suggested the immediate necessity of strengthening the works and reinforcing the rebel army at B -w --ling Green, while our menacing gun boat preparations at Cairo and St. Lou is resulted in a rebel encampment and fortifications at Columbus of the grand est proportions to resist our passage down the channel of the Mississippi.— But while the rebels were thus expend ing ilieir strength upon these widely separated camps of Bowling Green and Columbus, their two immediate defen sive p< sitions at Fort Henry, on the Tennessee river, and Fort Donelson on the Cumberland, were comparatively neglected. Thus the loss of Fort Hen ry reduced them to the alternative of abandoning Bowling Green to save Ft. Donelson and the navigable water line 'to N iflhville; and in losing Fort Doncl son they lost Nashville, and Columbus ceased to be useful or tenabk’j whence its hasty evacuation. In all these movements tie splendid campaigning and fighting qualities of our troops were amply proved;’l ut the capture of two such strongly defended places as B iwlii.g Green and Columbus, without the necessity of firing a shot, is due to the superior military combina tions of our commanding generals. A month ago, against the defensive works on the. bluffs of Columbus, with their two hundred pieces of heavy artillery and their exterior lines of rifle pits, with the river in front and a protecting swamp in the rear, an army of a hun dred thousand men and all our Missis sippi gunboats, and a bloody siege would have been required to take the place. A few days ago a reconnoiter ing gunboat found it evacuated, and thus all the vast labors and expendi tures of the rebels to make this place the Sabast 'pol of the Mississippi were thrown away. Columbus was their main reliance for the defense of New Orleans; and having abandoned Colum bus, where now are they to make a final stand on the line of the ' ississip pi this side the Gulf of Mexico ‘I The expulsion of Price from Missouri and his disastrous flight, with Ben. McCul och, over the Boston Mountains of Arkansas, vindicates as forcibly as our glorious campaign in Kentucky and Tennessee the wisdom of ample prepa rations and skillful arrangements be fore pouncing upon the enemy, and so with the Burnside expedition in North Carolina. The very presence of its overwhelming power reduced the rebels on Roanoke island to a surrender, be tlicir men wtiiiu oiitviglit mnoimtcd to a dozen in number, defended, as they wem, by their elaborate earthworks.— Is ic any wonder that the dispiriting ef fect of these defeats and disastrous re treats has resulted in the occupation of the valley of the Shenandoah and of Leesburg by our troops without oppo sition ? And who docs not now com prehend the fact that, in its eflects, the most disastrous battle to the South of al! the battles of this rebellion, ten times multiplied, was the battle ot Bull Run? It has cost the South many thousands of men, and hundreds of million of dollars, which otherwise would have been saved. Fort Sumter and Bull Run, however, still continue among our outstanding accounts against .this rebellion ; nor will it be long, we predict, before these balances are satisfactorily settled. We await with cheerfulness and absolute confidence the final development of Gen. McClellan’s magnificent combinations. [From the Ciaeinnatti Enquirer.] Northern View of Lincolns Message. The recent special message of the President transmitted to Congress, adopts unmi.-takably the platform of ►prospective emaancipation and slavery circumscription, is eliciting much and varied comment. When superficially cons'dercd it conveys lather a mystical and unimportant signification; but a close and careful analysis of its promi nent features precluded any basis for ambiguous ot* equivocal interpetation. The radical Abolitionist adopt it with pleasing gusto, notwithstanding it subject them to the ridiculous inconsis tency of iccoznizing slaves as property for which compensation should bo made from the public treasury. The docu ment contains an unfortunate serni-ac knowledgement that the Federal gov j eminent may, in the future find it ohli- H'-itorv *■> i-<‘eog-iiiz<! :i Southern Confed leracy, so far as to the more remote or ■cotton States. He urges Congress to anticipate by speedy legislation the the latent purpose of any of the border or central States to inaugurate an emancipation policy, by which the more Southern States would be precluded from any hope of their co-operation or affiliation. This indirect admission is in direct conflict with positoin always assumed by Secretary Seward in his foreign correspondence, when he takes the ground that no two Confederacies can exist on this continent. We cannot shut our eyes against tiie conviction that the President, if neces sary, in the father prosecution of the war against rebellion, is prepared to adopt any means which he may deem “indispensable.” He may deem it in dispensable to go the Abolition doc tfi.ric. t<> its full cxtmit. MEBKAGE FROM LINCOLN. Washington, March 7.—The Presi dent to-day remitted to Congress the following Message; Fellow Citizens us the Sena e aud House of Representatives:— l recommend the adoption of a joint resolution by your honorable bodies which shall be sub stantially as follows: “Resolved, Thai the United States ought to co-operate with any State which may adopt gradual abolishment of slavery, giving to such State pectin ary aid to be used by such State in its discretion to compensate for the incon viences public and priva'c, produced by such change of system.” If the proposition contained in the resolution does not meet the approval of Congress and Ihe country, there is the end; but if it does command such approval,’! deem it of importance that the States and people immed ately in terested should be at once distinc ly notified of the fact, so that they may •begin to consider whether 10 accept or reject, it. The Federal Government would find its highest interest in such a mc-asuie, as one of the most efficient means of self-preservation. The lead ers ot the existing insurrection enter tain the hope ihat this Government will be forced to acknowledge the indepen dence of some part of the’ disaffected region, and that all the slave Slates Ncrth of such parts will then say—the Union for which we have struggled be ing already gone, v/e now choose to go with the Southern section. To deprive them of.this hope sub stantially ends the rebellion, and the initiation of emancipation completely deprives them of it as to all the States initiating it. The point is not that ab the States tolerating slavery would very soon, if at all, initiate emancipa tion; but that while the offer is equally made ta al), the more Northern shall by such initiation,make it certain to the more Southern that, in no event, will the former ever join the! latter in their proposed Confederacy. I say initia 1 tion, because, in'mV judgment, gradual and not sudden emancipation is better for all. In the mere financial or pecun iary view, any member of Congress, with the census tables and treasury re ports before him, can readily see for himself how ver.y k soon the current ex penditures of this war would purchase, at fair valuation, all the slaves in any nainod State. Such a proposition on the part of the general Government sets up no claim of a right, by Federal authority, to inter fere with slavery within State limits, referring, as it does, the absolute con trol of the subject ie each case to the State and its people immediately inter ested. It is proposed as a matter of perfectly free choice with them. In the annual message, last December, I thought fit to say: The Ui.ion must be preserved, aud hence ail indispen sable means must be cmplored. I said this not hastily, but deliberately. War has been made, and continues to be an indispensable means to this end. A nratical reacknowledgment of the na tional authority would render the was unneccessary, and it wou'd at once cease. If, however resistance continues, the war must also continue, and it is im possible to foresee all the incidents which may attend and all the ruin which may fellow it. Such as may seem in dispensable, or may obviously promise great efficiency, towards ending the struggle, must and will come. The pro position now made is an offer only. I hope it may be esteemed no offence to ask whether the pecuniary considera tion tendered would not be of more value to the Statesand private oersons concerned than are the institution and property in it, in the present aspect of affairs. While it is true that be adop tion of the proposed resolution is mere ly initiatory, aud not within itself a practicial measure it is recommended in the h"pe that it would soon lead to important practical results In full view of great responsibili y to my God and to my country, I earnestly beg the attention ol Congress and the people to the subject. [Signed.] Abraham Lincoln. Sugar.—ls the war lasts six months longer Virginia and North Carolinia especially, will be without a pound of sugar. At present scarcely any sugar can be brought by railroad from Louis' l iana into these States; what there is has been put up by the extortioners at such prices, that the poor will not be able to use it much longer. In six months, even if the Federate are driven back from Tennessee, 'he railroads will have ceased running, or will be so near run down, they cannot curry heavy heights igpon them. What is to be done? the people in those coun ties where the sugar maple grows, pre pare to make sugar from it, and let the farmers plant the Chinese sugar cane. Perhaps it would pay, now while it can be done, to import the su ■ gar cane from Louisiana for planting Florida, South Alabama, and Georgia could make sugar, and we doubt not it could be done in portions of this State.

The Regiments of Volunteers in the So vice of the Confederate Government. While reporting the expenses of oni State for Military purposes—although not required by law, yet I desired if it was possible to do so, to present the organization of. the various Regiments of Volunteers received into the service by the Confederate States Government —that is, to give the name of the Colonel, Lieutenant Colonel, Major, and the Captains and Lieutenants of Companies in each Regi ment, the counties from which each Company came, and, also the number of each Regiment as given it by the Confederate States Govern ment. As much of this information could only bo obtained from the Wer Department nt Rich mond, 1 have used my best exertions to obtain the same from that point, without success. I have <njly been enabled togetan official state ment of the nuwbering of the various regi ments, reported or received at that Depart ment, up to the Ist of October, together with the stations of the Regiments named. As the numbers of many of the Regiments are different from those given them when they left Georgia, and as in all reports of the Con federate officers, they will only bedcsignated and kd.-wn by the numbers given them ly the Confederate Government, 1 have conchtd ’ed to submit the information received upoa his point, which is as follows : List us Rtyimcids from ihe State of Georgia in the service of the Confederate States, ami their stations, Oct. 1, 1861.
