ITea, WMCT & IIUW, Mat* Prater* —W OU Por Annnm. In Advance. Confederate L nion f r the Session. \Vj will send the Confederate Union to sub i rib! rs during the approaching Session of the Legisiature, for ONE DOLLAR. No paper sent vi'hout the money accompanies the order. Our paper will contain full proceedings of the Legislature, i lie Session will be an important otic, and iis doings will be faithfully reported by ns. Or;r Swiilirrs at iiloiur. f.npit. Kenan, of the 1st Ga. Regulars, sligbtlv wounded at Manassas is at home on a short visit to iiis tamilj’. He looks as if he liad seen hard service iu the last two mouths. His command has soil; red heavily, and his escape through so nmny ba'tles is almost miraculous. We trust Iip may soon be restored to his usual health, and that his visit may be pleasant. Capt. Caraker of the Blues, wounded at Sharps- burg, iu the leg, is also at homo. We have not seen him uut. We hope to see him soon, in all his former strength and manhood. Ho has also seen hard service. 1 le had unite a time of it hob bling oh of tlie hold—using two planks for crutch es as long as he could stand it—impressing a boat on the river, and an oid stumbling horse which gave him a fall and hurt his other leg. But he finally got to U inelscster after many trials by the way. Private Hendricks, of the Baldwin Volunteers, wounded severely in the shoulder at Manassas, has just reached home. He looks quite feeble, but is improving. We wish him a speedy ricov- ery, and better luck next time. We were also pleased to meet Serg’t R. Jones, who was wounded at Sbarpsburg. s' Clothiag for the Soldier*. e ate glad to see the public mind has been impressed by the appeals of the press in behalf of our soldiers. The people are waking up. But they are not fully aroused, if wo did not ted that n was a duty incumbent on us to keep this subject prominent, we should certainly dismiss it from onr columns Bot it is n . time to cover up the truth. Our soldiers are suffering already; but what will their con if ion he two months ahead, if they be not supplied with suitable clothing! As ” e * re fi ,eor K Ii ins. as we are Christians, as we are at lers, we soould come up to this work with an energy, liberality and enthusiasm that shall know no cessation until every effort has been made, in behalf of our army, that can be made. We will j not attempt to work on the sympathies of men, j hy P or f»ying the hardships of the poor soldier hs ie £008 forth, ill clad, in snow and ice, to the post of duty’, or lies down afterwards on the cold earth w ith no blanket or other covering to keep bis body and soul together. We call on men to do these things because it is tluir duty. It is their duty to provide clothing for the soldier, arid the i min who shirks this duty is worse than an infidel. Talk not of high prices—is there anything dearer than blood The humblest soldier who poors out his life s blood in defence of his country, lias spent that which tho wealth of the Indies roold not buy Men and women of Georgia, it is your duty to keep the soldier well clothed. It is your interest—aye. vital interest: for on the strong arms and stout hearts of the soldiers bang all that yon hold dear. Liberty and l fe are at stake. Do your whole duty, and leave the consequences with God. -■■■■- Casualties in tlie BrMwiii Blurs in (hr THE MLITABT EXEMPTION BILL.

We may reasonably expect that the enemy will, the coming winter attempt to take (iavannah and Mobile, and by means of their gunboats, endeavor to penetrate into the interior of the States of eorgia and Alabama. They will also endeavor to overrun and subjugate the States of Louisiana and Florida. Are we prepared to meet and re. pulse them at these points! We have had the whole snmtm r to prepare for them: have we im proved the time? If not, we had better hasten our preparations as fast as possible. It will not do to rely upon a want of courage or enterprize in our enemies. We made that mistake last win ter, and paid dearly for the blunder. In this war both the North and the South, have been in the habit of underrating the power of their adversa. ries, and both have paid dearly for their folly. If the Tennessee and Cumberland rivers are not ob structed now when we have ati opportunity they will again penetrate and overrun the State of Tennessee, and cut us off from Kentucky. Per haps those in authority are doing all that is nec essary to meet all of these contingencies. We hope they are. We hope Gen. Bragg will ob struct the Tennesiee and Cumberland rivers, whilst he has achat ce, but we f ar he will be too slow. We hop-and trust, also, that Savannah and Mobile ha.o ueen made strong enouph to re sist any force that may be sent against them, either in the shape of iron clad gunboats, or ar mies tl. is company, gather up such articles as they irocure, pack them in a box, and send to .

God will not prosper our cjuutry if we put iu high places men of bad hab its or depraved character. Our Republic had good men in office, in its early history, and God prospered us as a people.

Add to all these difficulties the further fact that tlie army seldom occupies iu its i ncampments a space less thau ten miles square, and that in pass ing from one portion of it to another yon have to exhibit your pass and tender no accouut of your self, and you may form some conception ot the trouble one meets with in his peregrinations about tbe camps.

Cincinnati, ISept. 29, tS62.—Informal reports from Augusta show that the town I was lost Saturday through the cowardice j of the captains of the guuboats, who fired I only three shots and left the town toils j fare. A sharp fight was made by the Home Guard. From seventy-five to one hundred rebels were killed and wounded. Among the latter was a sou of George D. Prentice of Louisville, mortally. Onr loss was ten to twelve killed and wounded.— Colonel Bufoit was taken prisoner. The loss to the town by fire was about •S100.000. Humphry Marshall and Kirby Smith’s force ate reported to be at Cynthiana, Kjf., to-day, thirty thousand strong, m ivingto- wards ('ovingtrin. It is rumored that Goa. Ruell lias been ordered to Washington. The Augusta, Ky„ correspondent of the Gazette, of this city, says : This jdace was attacked by 640 monnt ed rebels, with two cannon, under the command of a brother of tbe guerrilla John Morgan. The Union forces under Colonel Bradford, numbering 120 men, took refuge in houses and fired from win dow’s, killing and wounding ninety of the rebels. Among the killed were t^ree Captains— one of them a younger brother of John Morgan. Among the mortally wounded was Lieut Colonel Prentice, a son of Geo. D. Pren tice, editor and propritor of the Louisville Journal. The rebels were so exasperated at their loss that they set fire to the houses in the jdace, and two squares of the town were burned. Onr loss woe m’no lr ■ llod and fiftnen wounded. Tbe balance of our forces were taken prisoners. Subsequently a Union force from Mays- ville intercepted and attacked the rebels, when they lied in a perfect panic. i lie result of the pursuit has not yet been learned.

Col, Doles, (now commanding Ripley's brigade,) will enable you to form some id>a of the character ol the bat ile. and the losses sustained by other regiments. Dr Philpot, the Surgeon of the Regiment, was good euough to call to see me to-day, and he in forms me that the regiment went into action at ■•yl.arpsburg with only 27-1 men. Of this number, 38 w ere killed, aud 134 wounded ; a loss of 172 out f 278! Among the wounded, the doctor pei he ' d I tl,« anem> in a fort on College hill.

He requested that his charger, a beautiful b.ood bay, should be sent home to bis aunt—a re quest that has been complied with. None of the field ollioers were mounted during the battle; and yet the enemy's sharpshooters seem to have found out little difficulty in singling them out.
