We are surprised to hear any one at the Sftuth question the policy of the advance of our armies into the enemy’s territory. Must we of the South sit down quietly and see our houses burnt, our lands laid waste, our women ) children flying in terror from their homes, our negroes stolen, our quiet end unoffending citizens murdered, our cit ies and towns sacked, and say to the Yankees go on with your savage work, as far as you are able to do so, but as for us we will not retaliate ! Can this War ever be closed by such a policy? . Never! We shall have all the scenes of the past winter re-enacted on our coast, and on the borders of our rivers, the coming Winter, unless we compel the enemy tc stay at home to defend his own towns, cities, property and lives. Let our armies advance on Philadelphia—take possession of it, and what can their boasted gnn boats and iron c.ads do? Will they shell their own cities? We guess not'. Let our Generals do as Butler did in New Orleans, in one respect: levy a tax on Phila delphia for 25 or 30 millions of dollars, and we will touch that great nerve of the Yankees, which has impelled them to an invasion of our own soil —the pocket nerve. We will never have peace so long as we pursue a strfctly defensive policy. It is with nations as with men. It is by hard blows, given thick and fast, that a man protects himself from an infuriated adversary. Efforts to avoid him—or blows that only aggravate, will not give security for the present or the future. Even the most peaceable and good man is sometimes compelled to lay his enemy prostrate and power less on the ground before he can make himself se cure* It is neither humanity to an enemy nor justice to one's self to prolong strife. And we have never yet heard of an instance in the history of the world, where a people, who had the power^ did not carry the war into the enemy’s territory, when it was necessary to secure peace for them selves. It is the duty of nations, as of men, to end strife and bloodshed and war. And is there a man of intelligence who will say that he believes the present war will ever close while we fight the enemy only on our own soil? He has more men than we have—he has more money than we have —he has greater facilities for arming and equipping armies than we have—he can therefore exhaust us by prolonging the contest. We must te^jh him the same stern lesson which has been taught us by the Yankees during the war, or we shall be come his slaves. We have long ago turned both cheeks to the enemy. Self preservation now de mands that we strike the enemy where we can best cripple him—and that is on his own soil, and in his own pocket. Now it the lime lo par debt*. The principal cause of high prices at this time is the abundance and, consequently, the cheap ness of money—not of gold or silver or of specie paying Bank notes, bnt of Confederate notes and sbinplasters. Every body knows that twenty dol lars of Confedeiate money does not go as far as ten dollars of gold or silver. Why this is so. we need not enquire—but it is so. Consequently a man who owes a debt can pay it now very easily. Not alone because money is abundant, but be cause he can make one dollar pay two dollars of his debts. A man who postpones the payment of his debts until the War is over is a great goose. The Legislature will compel the Banks to resume specie payment—these abominable little dirtv sbinplasters will then be knocked out of circula tion—a large part of the Confederate money now in circulation will have been withdrawn by the conversion of these bills into Treasury interest bear ing Notes, and Bonds of the Confederate Govern ment, bearing 8 per cent, interest, all of which will be laid np as permanent investments. The con sequence will be that when the War is over, mon ey will be scarcer than ever before known in this country ; and one dollar will be harder to get then than two are now. Everything hut money will be cheap, and debts will he hard to pay. Now is the time to cancel old obligations. The man who fails to pay his debts now, v ']! one day see his folly : and will curse himself for beiDg such a con summate dolt. An lionrat Confraaiou. One man at the North has been courageous enough to tell the truth. The Editor of the New York Times, has made a clean breast of it. The reader will find an article from the Editor of the Times on another page of this paper, which goes a little nearer to the truth than any man North of Mason and Dixon’s line has dared to venture. He conceals little or nothing. He tells his read ers that the Federais have met defeat wherever they have met the Confederates ; whether behind entrenchments as at Richmond, or on the open plain as a* Manassas. He makes the startling ad mission that the Northern soldiers are‘ inferior” to the Southern. But he goes further. He asks, what can he expected in the future beyond what has happened in the past. We know not what motive induced the editor of the Times to make the candid confession he does. He may believe that the time has arrived when this War should be ended. He may have decided that the best plan after all, is to let the people of the North know the whole truth, that they may tho better bear disaster when it comes. One thing is cer tain : Foreign Nations hre now furnished with the truth—the whole truth. If they fail to recognize ns with the lights before them, we fervently trust that our Government will make a note of it: and when peace is restored, compel the cowardly Mer chants and Manufacturers of England and France to pay dear for the privilege of trading with us.— Even the Yankees areless to blame than England and France. Tfir Financial condition of Ilie Confed eracy. • We publish to-day an interesting and instruc tive statement from the Richmond Examiner of a late date, setting forth the amount of our Public debt dec. Notwithstanding the heavy expenses of the War, our Government is fully able to sup ply all the demands likely to be mads upon it for years to come. We are satisfied that our credit abroad is better than that of the Federais, who are day by day creating an immense public debt which they never intend to pay. Of one thing the people may rest assured—the last dollar of our debt will be paid. A negro, property of Rev. H. J- Adams, was tilled near this city on Friday last, by the caving " of dirt in a cut on the Railroad between this •"l and Sparta. e Savannah Republican’* State Read j It is desired the Judges of the Inferior Court of * Policy. | each county should interest themselves in the ap- TheRepublican has not been satisfied with the !

Now, as the Republican's policy was evidently borrowed from Mrs. Mudlaw, we contend that it should be called the Mudlaw policy, and it is certainly just about as clear as mud.

We hear from numerous sources complaints against an evil in our midst which is growing too great for further forbearance. We allude to the trading going on between negroes in such articles as chickens, eggs, butter, melons, fruit, &e. Ne groes in this city monopolise many articles of trade, and the influence of their example on other negroes is decidedly pernicious. We call on the City Council to put a stop to it. The practice i» growing so great and becoming so bold that white men are even found engaged in it. It is true many negroes buy to sell to white men. and. who are authorized to do so by order : but this liberty is abused. VWe hear of numbers of runaway ne groes around this city, and we further learn from people in the country and on the commons of the city, that they cannot keep hogs, chickens or even cows secure. Some of these runaways send in their booty to the city by other negroes for sale, and negro traders in the city buy them. Let the whole business he stopped at once. The first ne- Nnrrrndor of Harper’* Ferry. Richmond, 19th —Gov. Letcher received let ters to-day from Winchester dated 16th, confirm ing the report of an unconditional surrender of ten thousand Yankees, at Harper’s Ferry on Mon day, without loss of a man on onr side. Jackson captured fifty pieces of artillery, ammunition, stores, &c. The letters also mention an engagement in Maryland between, Boonsboro’ and Middletown, in which the enemy were repulsed with reported loss of five thousand, killed and wounded. Con federate loss heavy. No further particulars re ceived. Late New* from Nashville. Chattanooga, Sept. 18 —The enemy have again evacuated Nashville, this time going down the Cum berland liver. Their occupation of Clarksville and Fort Donelson, was for the purpose of securing this route of retreat. The tone and appearance of the Nashville pupers indicate apprehension of a speedy occupation of the place by the Confederates. A train on the Nashville road started tor Tullahpms, eighty miles from here to-day. Battle of Cotton Kill Mobile Sept. 19th.—A special dispatch to the Mo bile Advertiser Sc Register says: Knoxville, Sept. 19th.—An express messenger from ; Lynchburg has just arrived, with the news that a bat ! tie has been fought at Cotton Hill, Fayette county, i Va.. between our forces under Gen Losing and the i Yankees. The enemy's loss is six hundred and ours -'5. Among onr killed is Lieut. Cox of the 51st Ya Regiment. The enemy was totally routed. From Cumberland Rap. Knoxville, Sept. 17th.—The enemy prepared to evacuate, at Cumberland Gap, on the 14th instant. They sent all their sick to the rear and prepared to blast rocks, with which to block the road against pur suit. Their advance had reached Loudon, when they re ceived news of a very favorable character, (which un fortunately for them was false.) and the orders for evacuation were countermanded. GREAT BATTLE IN MARYLAND. Richmond 11th.—Ihe report of a tight nt Harper's Ferry, and the capture of 8,000 prison ers, is confirmed, Gen. D. H. Hill, on Saturday last, w*as attacked in Maryland with eighty thousand men. The tight continued all day. with heavy loss on both sides. On Monday Hill was reinforced by Long- by stationing a regiment at each; and it is passing strange that Gen. Stevenson sh'ocld let his strong force lie idle while the enemy were piling obstructions in the now great highway to Kentucky.

We look to the City Council to correct this flagrant abuse at once. And it would he well to raise a company of men to scour the county and rid it of the runaways and thieves who are infest ing every neighborhood. a r^We were pleased to meet Captain Miller Grieve, Jr., of the 1st Ga. Regulars, and Lieut. Thomas F. Newell, who have just returned on ac count of wounds received in the late battles in Virginia. They are improving and will soon be able to return to their posts.

On Thursday last all places of business were closed, and with the exception of a few wagons in the streets, the day bore the appearance of Sun day. A large audience assembled at the Metho dist E.

After these addresses, a collection was taken up for the poor; and though we have not heard the amount raised, we believe it was worthy the day and the occasion. Fartoi-y Yarn. We understand that E.

We appear to-day under anew title. The type we are compelled to use, is not such as we would select, but at present it is the best we have. The term Federal, (although not in itself objectiona ble. meaning the same as Confederate) it cannot be denied however, had become exceedingly dis tateful to the Southern eye and ear : and we have for some time contemplated the change we now make. W T e desired to retain the samf character of type with our late head : hut failng to secure it, and wishing to drop a name alike odious to our readers and ourselves, we have deciled to use the present type rather than wait for better. In re taining the word Cnion, we mean to express by it that fraternal bond between the Confederate States, wfliich we trust may be cordial and perpet ual.

Mobile, 18th.—A special dispatch to the Adver tiser & Register dated Itika, the 16th, says this place was captured cfn Sunday morning last. The tnemy evacuated it during the night, and but for a premature attack, we should have captured the whole garrison We took over a million dollars value in stores. The enemy was strongly fortified. Our loss was five, and the enemy’s thirty, ot whom ten were left dead on the field. Onr torces arri ved in time to save the town from destruction. The citizens were found with their household goods out doors, waiting the application of the torch of the wandax enemy. They carried off 200 negroes, thirty of whom were recaptured by our scouts. Twelve houses and three mills were destroyed on the late march from Marietta to luka. They retreated in the direction of Corinth. They made a demonstration on our lines last night, as is be lieved, a feint to cover their retreat. Also, they are crossing the Tennessee river at Hamburg. Gordonsville, V.v.Sept. 19th.—At Harper’s Ferry, we paroled 11.090 Federal privates and 425 officers, aud took 2,000 negroes, 15,000 stand of small arms, and 46 pieces or cannon. Colqnel Walker’s Battery took 500 horses themselves. Our loss was 3 killed and 40 wounded. Their dead were covered in ditches, and we could not, therefore, tell how many there were. In the fight at Sharpesburg. Maryland, we took 3.000 prisoners. Gen. Garland and Col. Strange were killed. Gen. D. H. Hill was roughly bandied, but man aged to hold the enemy in check.

Death of Mrs. Lipscomb.—It is our painful duty to announce the death of Mrs. Susan Andrew Lipscomb, wife of Dr. A. A. Lipscomb, Chancellor of the Universi- sity of Georgia. She departed this life on the 12th inst.; leaving, besides her im mediate family, a very large circle of ac quaintances in Geoigia and Alabama. A highly cultivated lady, of deep piety, she seemed a necessity to her husband as she lege was manifested in a thousand ways, and she was always planning for its ad vancement. She was active in meeting the wants of our soldiers and contributing to the demands of our hospitals. She fed the poor, she clothed the naked, she ac complished a good and great work, and her death is a public calamity. We hope some one qualified, will soon prepare a sketch of her life for publication.—Athens Banner. and individual happiness. State New*. Col.

Lewis, of Georgia, on the object of the present war: THE OBJECT OF THE PRESENT WAR. Mr. Lewis, of Georgia, submitted the following, which was agreed to: The Congress of the Confederate States resolved hereby to make not only to our enemies with whom we are engaged in deadly strife, but also to the balance of the civilized world, the following solemn declarations. Aud first, our separation as States from connexion with the Government of the United .States was for the pur pose of securing to ourselves and to our posterity the priviledge of self- government, and witli it our indepen dence. . Our confederating together as States was for our [mutual protection. We have not desired war; we did not seek it; hence we exhausted all honorable means to avoid it; we utterly disclaim all lust for conquest, and if, in the further prosecution of this terrible war, we should be urged into a course having the appearance of such desire, our only aim at the same time will be to drive back the invader and to con quer an honorable peace. W ar is a terrible arbitrament; this we feel. Our sacrifices have already been great, and our woes only tolera ble as necessities in obtaining a great good. Our young men have sickened and died in camp, and have been slain in battle. We mourn, deeply mourn, their loss. All of our other sufferings are as nothing when compared to the loss of our loved and gallant sons. We frankly make these declarations for ourselves and for our people; and with equal candor we declare our pur pose to continue our sacrifices, how ever great, until our independence and constitutional liberty are establish ed as an act of high and patriotic duty. These are our objects, and with the blessings of Providence, we intend to secure them at any and every cost.— Neither a union with slayers of our sons, nor a subjugation by them can occur until after our arms are so pal sied that we can strike no more. We say not this in the spirit of proud boasting. We trust that our recent brilliant victories have produced in us a spirit of humble thankfulness, and we avail ourselves of the hour of suc cess to say, lastly both to our enemies and to the world, that we desire an honorable peace, which if it cannot be gained in any other way we shall hope, relying on Omnipotent guidance and protection, to gain through the instrumentality of the sword. “We cannot make an offer of peace. Our self-respect will not allow it, after all that has passed; hut think that humanity itself, not only author ized, but claims at our hands these solemn avowals.” Proclamation of Gen. Smith to the People of Kentucky.—Kentuckians: I am authorized by the President of the Confederacy to organize troops and issue commissions. I appeal to you to make one effort for your principles, for your institutions and for your State; rally under your flag, organize and muster your men in the cause of the South. Breckinridge and Buckner and their brave Kentuckians are on their way to join you. Make one effort. Strike one blow, and your State will be saved from Yankee thraldom, and take a place in the van of the Confederacy, where her institutions and her princi ples rightfully place her.

The Confederates, number ing about 3,000 infantry and 1,000 cavalry, arrived sight of Covington Ky., on the 10th. Business was again sus pended in Cincinnati, and military companies were ordered to report for duty at S o, clock on the morning of 11th. Three thousand laborers. were ordered to commence work on the trenches. A dispatch from Cincinnati Wednesday night, at 10 o’ clock, says: A train of thirty ambulances, w ith a flag of truce, left here yesterday af ternoon, for the use of our Wounded at Richmond. When they were twelve miles distant they were ordered to halt by the pickets of General Ewing. They did so, aud the officer in com mand of the ambulances wastaken be fore General Heath, who informed him that he could not pass the train, as he was not receiving flags of truce at present. An appeal was then made to Gen. Kirby Smith, who prompt ly allowed our ambulances to pro ceed. Our scouts report that the rebels are moving in tw r o divisons, numbering 19,000 men. Early this morning a large rebel cavalry force attacked our pickets on Licking river driving them back a mile, several of whom were wounded.—-Our whole force over the river was drawn up inline of battle at noon to-day. One of our men was kill ed in the picket skirmish. Louisville, Sept. 10th.—Hon. Rich ard Apperson, from Mount Sterling, reports Humphrey Marshall there with 4,000 troops including cavalry and artillery, arresting citizens, search ing houses, &c. It is reported that a force ot rebel cavalry took possession of Eminence, Ky., last night. John H. Morgan occupies the Observer & Re porter officer as headquarters. Hon. Joshua F. Bell, recently unconditional ly released by the rebels, arrived at the Galt House to-day. It is rumored that about 4,000 rebels from Lexington last Sunday took possession of Lebanon to-day. Latest From Bragg and Buell.— A gentleman who left Bragg’s com mand on Friday morning last, passed through Atlanta yesterday. When he left, Gen. Bragg’s command was forty miles northeast of Carthage, Tenn., near Mitchellville and Camp Trousdale, and our forces has inter cepted Gen. Buell’s retreat to Bow ing Green, and compelled him to turn back to Nashville, where, it was believ ed, he had begun fortifying. A Yankee mail was captured near Franklin by our cavalry. It contained dispatches from Buell, which stated that provisions were scarce with him, and his army was on short ra tions. A letter from a Yankee officer to his wife, dated at Nashville, on the 8th inst., gave rather a gloomy account of the condition of affairs among’the Yank ees, but consoled her by saying that the darkest hour was just before day.” Our cavalry had annoyed and harass ed Buell’s army considerably. Neither Bragg's nor Buelfis future movements couid be guessed at, but it was thought that Buell would attempt to escape by way of Paducah (Tennes see river.) If he attempts that, or any other movement, he will find that Gen. GERMAN LESSONS!
