AU the evangelical churches have become deep ly interested in the spiritual welfare of our troops, and have sent their best, most eminent and talent ed mm to the army df-Tennessee. Among them are Bishop Elliott, of Georgia, of the Episcopal Church; Rev. Dr. Styles of the new school of Fres- tery, who fcrmerally labored in Virginia in Stone wall Jackson’s corps; Rev. Dr. Teazley of the Bap tist church; Klv. Dr. Pherin, of the Methodist church; and the Rev. Dr. Palmer,' formerly of New Orleans, besides other eminent divines are expected. Dr. Quintard, of Nashville, Chaplin of the first Tennessee Regiment, and D. Elliott, also of Nashville, Chaplain in Gen. Cheatham’s division, as well as the respective chaplains of the army generally, have been laboring hard inthe good cause, and have aided greatly in bringing about this holy work. The Atlanta.—A naval officer in a commu nication to the Savannah News, thinks that there was disaffection among the crew. Ac cording to bis account, the officers and pilots were not tbc men to give up without a fight. The hoisting of -a white flag, and then hauling it down and running up the Confederate flag, seems to favor the idea of. trouble among the crew, especially when we remember that it was a mixed crew, some-of whom Bad manifested a mutinous disposition before the ship went oat, by saying that “if the ship went out it wcfuld be the worse for'her and the officers.” THE NEWS.

At least one half of the.Stat63 declared to be but of the Union were carried out by force, against the votes oi tho people, and by the wanton exer cise of usurped legislative functions; and ever since its origin the Confederate Government has maintained itself by the most odious inter ference with private rights. Men are pressed into the ranks of its armies ; their property is seized for public uses; every expression of Union sentiment is stifled by the bayonet,, the gibbet, tho angry mob or the bloodhound; and a spirit of ferocious cruelty, of savage fanati cism, of implacable, unreasoning brute fury drives them on, like madmen, to their own des truction. Tliis abolition oracle then gravely, contrasts this picture with, tho “happy” condition of the North, and congratulates itself that “business and tbc various affairs of social life in the North pruceivj with all their customary deco rum and tranquility.” To this remarkable de claration the New York World makes the fol lowing.good rejoinder Are tho “ various affairs of social life,” an intelligent stranger might be forgiven for ask ing, “really proceeding with all the customary decorum and tranquility in the Northern States of tho Union ? Is_ it your normal condition that knots of citizens' should form themselves into leagues for the purpose of branding' and denouncing all their follow citizens who refuse to join them as traitors and villains t Is it your ordinary national conception of “tran quility” that public meotings convened for po litical purposes should be broken up by armed legal' tribunals, condemned upon illegal testi mony, and sentenced to illegal punishment ? fs'it your ordinary national conception of “de corum” that women should be driven from their homes for their opinions, Judges assailed on the bench for doing their judicial duty, and ihe wholesale deportation of citizens made a daily amusement for potty military satraps ?” If we reply that we do regard these things as ordinary and reasonable features'of our ideal social life, it is very certain .that civilized men caiiuot l>e expected to concern themselves much' about the maintenance of such social “decorum and tranquility” as these. If we answer tbut these things are exceptional fea tures of our condition, made necessary by tho necessity of suppressing the rebellion—what becomes. of.our argument from" the national unanimity, wbat becomes of our assault upon the allcdged unanimity of the rebel South ? THE FEDERALS IN ALEXANDRIA The Alexandria (La) Democrat gives tho fol lowing account of the Federal raid upon that town: * . . Major General let-the-Union-slideNathaniel P. Banks has been in Alexandria. The ele phant has been to town—and all the little monkeys and many other strange beasts. We regret tho proprietors of the traveling mena gerie should have chosen a time for their ex hibition at' this point when we were necessaris ly absent—otherwise, there might have been chronicled for our readers and posterity many tafaabJe-itBins and important particulars which must remain as diamonds ip tbc rubbish. It was understood on their arrival .that their stay was to be somewhat protracted, and so it was hoped tfihy wo.ald still bo here on our return, which was not expected to be delayed, beyond twenty days.,* ^ » '. [ ^ They arrived hereon thirfitb, 7'-h and 8i.li of May, 1863, but saw proper to strike tents and retrace their'-steps on tho 15th, With and 17th of the same month and year. 'And as we did not return from our excursion into the country till the 20th, the opportunity was lost of seeing tho animals and witnessing tho slight of hand performances in which latter branch of the fine arts thoy are said to' have excelled any company that ever visited this town. To drop tho figurative; Abraham Lincoln sent to our homes his persuasive logic.to in duce us to return to our former allegiance to tiro Union. We have witnessed the means to which he resorts to win our love. The navy reached our town first. An interview was asked under flag of truce with the Mayor—the surrender cf the town demanded and given— tho.United States 'flag raised on shore, and a guard of qbout thirty men placed around it. fc>r the twenty four hours the naval authori ties controlled tho .place, straggling negroes were driven out of town and refactory ones punished, but so soon as the infantry arrived atid Gen. Banks assumed command, there arose a scene 'of confusion, to which justice cannot be done with the pen. It beggars .all description. . ■. ' . ' - •The Generals appropriated private resident ces for their headquarters, slew the kid and the limb and w ung the necks of the unoffending poultry as if the destroyers were monarchs of all they surveyed and lords of the fowl and the brute. While invading family firaides they sowed tho seeds of dissatisfaction and insurrection among the serVants. The generals were riding in stolen car riages drawn by stolen horses. During the brief stay aqnads were roaming all over the country plundering and stealing whatever they could lay their hands on, associating with slaves and sharing thftir quarters. Horses, mules, cattle, hogs, poul- try, were treated as public property, and belong ing as much to the captors as do the buffalo of the prairie. Corn and fodder, sugar and molasses, and bacon from the meat houses were freely taken —the subject. of any pay never even being alluded to. Between three and four.negToes were taken from this Parish.' Almost every planter has lost some, and a few have lost all. The deluded wretches were hurried off and a thousand stories pdhred into their bewildered ears. In many instances the soldiers became custodians of the negroes’ money,promising to give them bet ter money upon their arrival in New Orleans, and two for one. The town was a vast encampment, nine thousand soldiers being in and immediately around it. Gen. Banks having brought no commissary t«un with him, cattle and even milch cows and their calves wereslaughtered in great quantities. Hides, offal, feet, beads, bones were thrown about in every direction till the whole atmosphere became im- ; jregnated with a disgusting and sickening odor. ; Millions of flies are still remaining,and thoy Bli the streets like an Egyptian plague. . ? The Yankees’ short reign here willioiig be re memberid. 'The money estimate of the damage inflicted upon the country in the loss of properly and loss of crops, cannot be computed. Butwhile our resources have been crippled it must be ad mitted that our cause has been strengthened in the heaits of the people. Whatever lingering of Un ion sentiment may have remained in the-breast of any has certainly been put to the test. He must be a ba'd man indeed who could be united with such a people. The war has beeu brought to our doors—our little army of three thousand men have been com pelled to fall back before the Federals’ heavy col umns, but we are glad to see that the spirit of our people, so far from being broken down, is made stronger and their determination unshaken to strain every nerve and submit to every sacrifice rather than yield to the oppressor. It is reported abroad that tho Yankees were welcomed in Alex andria, that privato houses were thrown open to them, tea parties given, etc., etc. We.are happy io be able to brand all sucli'atatements as abso lutely false. It is true that some four Or five of the citizens are missing, but even they showed lit tle Union proclivities while in town. THE. DESTRUCTION OF DARIEN, The city of Darien, one of "the oldest towns in the State of Georgia,' the New- Inverness of Oglethorpe’s time, has been totally destroyed by Yankees egro forces. Private letters con-- tain some facts in reference to this crowning act of wanton vandalism on Georgia soil, citizen of Darien, writing from - “Dunwoody’s Plantation, near where Darien once stood,” under date of June 12th, says: Wbat has beon so long threatened has at length come to pass. Darien is now ono plain of ashes and blackened chimneys; _ The ac cursed ‘ Yankee-negro vandals came' up yes terday with'throe.gunboats and two transports and laid the city in ruins. There are but throe small houses lelt in the placo. Tho Mu'.bodist Church was set on fire, hut it did not burn.-— All the other churches, the market bouse, the court bouse, Jail, and clerk's office, are all gone. The villains' broko open all tho houses and stores and took? what they wanted, and then poured spirits of turpentine over the floors, and applied the torch. It is a sad sight to see the smoking ruins now. The wretches shot the milch cows and calves down in the streets, took some of them on board their vessels, and left the rest lying in iho streets, whero they still lie. They carried off every negro that was in the place, except ono old African woman,named Nancy, who told them she was from Africa, and that she would not go again on the big water. Alter destroying the town, on their way.lo Doboy, they burnt Mr. Morris’s plants tion buildings. For myself I foel this calami ty severely.

Tho “vexed question” as to the military silr- uation. at -Vicksburg should entitle that stub born city of bluffs to tho new appellation of "Vex-burg. Vandal hords have assaulted it on all sides until they have become exhausted and arc now engaged in oxtensive preparations to undermine it and assault it from the bottom.— The entiro community of Chattanooga is breath less with suspense^ for fear the telegrapic ope rator at Jackson should make a mistake and send us something intelligible from that quarter. Tne whole thing is a mystery, and no other enterprising military.savan of the age having as yet undertaken to clear it up and enlighten the public; and relieve the anxieties of individ uals who have heavy bets ou the result the subscriber proposes to do it himself.- ■ “Whathaveyou got from Vicksburg?” This interrogatory awaits you at every cor ner. Men do not now, ss in tho halcyon time, ask you to imbibe immoderate quantities of the Teutonic—you are no longer.invited to smoke a cigar. You are not oven asked, “ How are you, Happy ?” before somebody says, “ Well, what do you get from Vicksburg ?” 1 get nothing 1 .*. Lform my own conclusions, (which aro gen erally so correct, that I am requested by the military authorities beforehand not to open my mouth for fear I should say something.) I re fuse to no “suppressed” any longer, “ military necessity" to the contrary notwithstanding. 1 — The situation at Vicksburg is simply this: Grant is digging a big holo under it 1 It is tho most important ffntfor-taking of his life. By a species of engineering the most skillful known in ancient cr modern warfare, he will eventually come up out of the earth, immedi ately in the centra of the fated city—if he don’t come out at “the littlo end of the horn.” But Ulysses, if reports speak correct, is as good at a “horn” as “any other mail ” There is but ono thing can save us at Vicksburg ; and of tliis the community may rest assured. If Grant’s army, digging under the city should happen to strike a gold mine, they will become completely demoralized, and give up the siege, and take to trading in nuggets for “green-, backs.” .But, if, on the other hand, [and the reader will mark the significance of the sug gestion,] they do not strike a gold mine—we are, to quote the language o( tho sublime Shakspcure—-'‘gone up.” In 'such an event, Grantjnay even dig quite beneath the city and come out at the river on tho other side’, there by, not only letting enough water in to water his horses, and. his soldiers, (which .are bis jackasses,) but he will also bo enabled in revi ving his men, to revive the canal-idea (an idea worthy of the canaille) of turning , tho current of the Mississippi, und may- run his gunboats under the city and bring them out on the re verse side. Every sensible reader, will at once concede the wisdom of this forethought. Why may not'Grant establish underground railway communication from; this side to that side ? ' Why, after making so big a hole and crawling out the other sidc and palling out the hole after him, may he not huve dirt enough to fijlvip the Mississippi so’that it may be com- FROM WINCHESTER. Richmond, June 18th.—Passengers by the Central train this evening bring little addition al news from Winchester. The number of prisoners taken is fully seven, thou^xnd, togeth- er-with two or three thousand horses and an immense number of wagons. Richmond, June 18.—The Yankees have en tirely disappeared from Stafford county. Tho buildings at Aquia Creek were not destroyed.

Richmond, June 18.—Before the capture of Winchester, Miiroy notified the rebels that he would burn the town, if any attempt was made to storm the position. Ewell replied that ho would hang every Yankee captured. “It is reported that'Ewell has captured Har per’s Ferry, with immense sLores, en route to Frederick.

Should these Yankee-negro brigands ever fall into our hanijs, the above record maybe useful., From the letter of a lady, formerly a resident of Savannah, we make the following extract I suppose you have heard all about the burning of Darien. . I was in town on Tuesday, and was to have had what things I had there removed the first opportunity, but on Tuesday the Yankees landed s negro force of four hundred, who with torches and spirits of turpentine, burned every house and store, together with the churches and court house. They have left nothing but the chimneys standing in all Darieu. They took every negro that was in the place, forcing some io go with their guna pointed'at them all the time. One'negrtj' woman ran from them and tfey shot her in the head, and then carried her on board their boat. They havo taken the schooner'Pet, that was ready .to sail for Nassau with a cargo of cotton. TROUBLE AMONG THE DETAILED MEN IN . 4," (lOVKONUENT EMPLOY, Yesterday was a day of some excitement nmon» the soldiers, iuachinials, and others, detailed from the army to work in the Government shops for tho preparation and creation of the munitions and material of war.' The facts briefly stated are these: 'The last Con gress passed an act fixing the pay of all detailed men at three dollars per diem. On Tuesday the War Department put. this act into effect at some of the shops, and the result was that all the workmen immediately struck and slopped work. This ac tion spread its contagion among the workmen in the other shops, and a meeting wa i held on Wed nesday evening of the battallion, numbering about seven hundred men, at which resolutions were framed and a remonstrance against "ihe act drawn up and laid before Major Downer and Col. Gorgas, the superintendents of the shops, through a com mittee appointed by tho meeting. At tho sam*. meeting the question wae put tothe dcalled men “•Will yon go to work, or .Camp Lee ?’’ The uni versal response was, “Camp Lee 1” This “rebellion” on the partof the detailed men, and the derangement and partial stoppage in the Bhops is a serious business, when o'rderft arc wait- mg to be filled, and when to fill them with the ne cessary dispatchsome of the shops have been work ing night and day. These men are soldiers still, having only been transferred from one part of du- t ff anotiler i just as necessary to the existence of the Government as the army. Inthe army a sol- diey deserting his post of dnty is liable to be Court Martialed and short.' We don’t know that the Gov ernment intends applying this rule in the present instance, but the parallel presented by the two cases is a strong one. cumoty situation.' Like my friend tho-Hon.

Kirby Smith is not at Milliken’s Bend This Roorback grew out of the .fact that a man n ^™.®r, J °, hu Smith wa3 on a “bender,” and not on a MilUUen s-bender either. This is'tho summing up of the situation and tho solution of Vicksburg To be understood lucidly, the reader should first prepare himself by drinking a bottle of Cassiez’ champaign Catawba claret, two swallows %f Cal vert s young whisky, and ’.half a dozen mugs of Koontz lagar beer, and then read it backwards If he can t understand it, then, he should be con sidered as a spy; and sold as a “substitute” at half the market price of the article. * J.JET. Littzb-Eolly.Island Oi.kxk of Yankees.— Wo are glad to announce, as the result of our recent bombardment of tho enemy’s positions upon Little Folly Island, that the Yankees havo been compelled to desist from their task of entrenching, and; on yesterday, had aban dotied Little Folly Island^altogether.

The consequence is nothing to them if Vicksburg fall. But a “sequence ” after it does fall “agin two par,” is of vital impor tance to'the profession.” If Vicksburg does fall, she will fall in I Grant will burrough beneath it with his “song-dig gers,” till its- paved streets resound with the roll-of ar tillery as the gods used, in mythologic story, to rattle wheelbarrows over tho brass arch 01 the skies, to make artificial thunder. Vicksburg will then be hollow as a shell, and thus it .will be observed Grant did not lie, when he said-to Lincoln, over the wires, “we’re shellin uv'the town.” Inthe meantime, the explanation so far being clear as mud, our prospects are brightening. Our rations hold out finely. Ninety 'days rations - of whisky, aa many rations of cigars lor the officers of the line who smoke, and two packs of marked cards stiff unsold at the guttler’s. The. story about - 7 rre .. Banks being at Port Hudson ia a myth. There is Jl«is in oonduotin K us u.rough-tbis bloody no banks but those, of the Father of waters, and a 5 r * r °£ independence. We want no more wrong, little faro bank which Gen. Grant keeps in his tent , ng , out , “^ t ?f? "il?hts” in this fierce and desper- r_. .v . - 1 - ate struggle. W e want action-harmonious, united action—tnat cordial action, that springs from a great heart, anxious to assist and remove difficulties and ohatacle3.rath.erthan.tor personal aggrandizement to waste onr time and energy upon the useless ab- stractiong of “State Kight8." ' - The great and absorbing right for which the South- ern btates are fighting, i* the right of separating from the North; and upon the success of this struc- gle all other rights, questions and issues hang m tearful dependence. Let the freemen of Georgia then see to it, that m selecting the incoming Exec utive of this noble State, they choose a man who will give support to the arm of President Davis and cordial support to his measure, in the prosecution of the war—not one who has given.embarrassment and contention. ONE OF TRE PEOPLE. N. B.—We publish the foregoing as an’advertise ment,’ as notice thatvre respectfully decline for the present to’give space to political articles. The great scarcity .of paper—our limited space for reading matter of any kind—toe pressure of news and stir ring events of Vital interest to toe people, alt forbid that we should yield our space to electioneering ar ticles. We canmot do it in justice to the reader, and we wui not do XT. We have several communications on hand upon the' Batne subject. The non-appear ance of which this .note will sufficiently explain.— Editor. By the by, permit me to enquire of. Gov. Brown or his Adjutant, Col. Wayne, the status at present of these militia officere.” They certainly command no troops in toe field ; they command none at home be tween the conscript ages of IB and -to, and I see no provision or place made for them in toe troops being raised and organized for home defence! for-I notice that these organizations elect their own officer* To what military class, then, .do these militia ofiicers belong ? What duties, as officers, do they perform 1 I have given you, Messrs. Editors, many oblec- tions to the re-election of Gov. Brown. I may ad dressyou again upon this subject. The candidacy of Gov. Brown, I will remark in'conclusion, is par ticularly unfortunate at this particular time, when we so much need harmony of measures and action be tween toe State and Confederate Governments — This war m which we are engaged, may be one'of duration. The policy and measures for raising-and supporting our armies, and maintaing andfilline up the ranks of our companies and regiments a» they shall be thinned by toe caaualtiee- of battles, have been deliberately taken by President Davis and toe Confederate Congress. Their wisdom has been vin dicated by toe glorious achievements of our armies ever since too passage of the first oonscript law Gov. Brown still persists in declaring the measures tmconstitutional, ana refuses his assistance in their execution! The issue is too persistently made for those of us who give a cordial support to the Commander and Chief of our Confederate armies to decline it. We do not endorse the modern theory of Gov v Brown who professes supportjto the Confederate adminis tration, while he denounces as unconstitutional and tyrannical “it* prominent measures” 1 This is no time to yield to the personal ambition of Gov. Brown in his opposition to the measures upon which our noble Chief Magistrate, Jefferson Davis, is so- glori- ously conducting us in this bloody contest. No Messrs. Editors, let us unite upon a man for Geor gia’s next executive, who will not support toe Con- tederste administration with professions while his acts give the cold shoulder of criticism and condem nation to its measures; but, who will, as becomes toe patriot, spread no discord or dissatisfaction to a measure which has been adopted by his Govern ment and_approved,by its highest judicial authority, but who win support the authority and arm of Pres- From the Valley.—A variety of rumors came down the Central train last evening,respecting the Mobile military operations of our forces in the vicinity of Winchester,. One represented that Gen. Ewell had surrounded that city, while another, and the most probable gave it out that the Yankee army, under Miiroy, hadeyacted that place, and made for Har per’s Ferry. The latter has doubtless been the case, if other reporta which we received several days ago may be credited. ’ AU of toe troops in front of Fredericksburg are ennrtnrl irnna A 600 lbs. chloroform 60 dozen (ielatioe Opium, calomel, Blue Msss ..asKmsRBsassfth,^ Hardware, Ac. ! flS,B& aAs,t . e Pant *■«<“” 15C0 dozen Dressing Combs • lOOin-B* Hijing Cards 500,000 Needles, saao-ted 4 So°&?iE ldlasSho, ’ se “ * 60 dozen Calf Skies 1000 lbs.
