On and after the first (lay of June next
tli3 sabscription price to this paper will b<
Fore Dollars in advance. Those win
pay between thistimo and June, will ge
tlie paper at Three Dollars a year. W«
are compelled to go up in our prices tc
meet the corresponding rise in Printing
material. J’aper is 500 por cent abort
nhl juices. Ink 500 per cent, workmenh
wages double, &c. Oil, wood, lights
glue, molasses, stationery, and other a~-
ticlcs essential in the printing of a news
paper, have advanced to enormous rates
VVo expect our friends to stand by us at
this critical juncture. We gave their,
many years a paper for 92 00, that was
worth ten to them. We only ask them to
pay ns now what is actually necessary to
save us from prostration. Less than S4 0(
a year will not jiay expenses. The change
in our prices is made in accordance with
the action of the Printers’ Convention.

The Address of President Davis to
the People of the Confederate States,
should be read by every man and wo
man in the Confederacy. It is the in
terest of every man or woman or who
ownsa dollar,in the Confederate States,
to help the Government in its severe
struggle with our powerful foe. The
President, from his stand point, over
looks the whole held, lie sees the
dangers that threaten ,and wisely seeks
to avert them. Hear him, then, men
and women of Georgia. Help him—
hold up his hands—encourage him—
and he will guide you safely through
the wilderness to the promised land ol
of peace, safety, and independence.

The communication from Rev. J. II.
('impbell, should attract the attention
ol every man and woman in the laud.
U iiut is to become of the orphans of
deceased soldiers, whose widows have
neither the means nor the ability to
give their children an education V They
must grow up in ignorance and become
the victims of crime. Let the State do
something. And let every benevolent
and patriotic man and woman do some
thing. Manv soldiers’ widows might
engage in teaching, if a support could
b? assured them. At any rate we would
be delighted to see this noble sugges
tion of Mr. Campbell acted on fully by
the people of Georgia. Some will say,

The Attack 6* Charleston
It is difficult to believe that the ene

was right.'
Q. The road to Elizabethtown being consider’d
tbe most dangerous, what was the rank of the offi

A. He was senior Captain of the regiment.
Q- Coming from Hodgensville or Elizabeth
town, was not Capt. Thornton in the best posi

have made a gallant stand at tbe bridge 7
A He was in the best place to see the enemy,
and in a good place to make a tight. There was a
good position at the bridge for a gallant fight and
a stand c m'd have been made there.
l^. Did the pickets fire a gnu ! Or did Colonel
Crawford have any notice whatever of the ap

A. The pickets never fired a gun, and Colonel
Craw ford had no notice of the approach of the

Col. Crawford offered no evidence but rosted
the case on the foregoing testimony.
The Couit with this evideuce before it, pro

and acquitted him of all blame under the 2d,
touching the surrender.

ENGAGEMENT ON THE PAMUNKEY.
Richmond, April 18.—Two steam propeller gun
boats—one of large size and both filled with troops,
came np York river Thursday. The latter went up
the Pamunkey river about a mile above West
point. Onr batteries opened fire npon her, doing
great damage. At the end of the action she was
gotten off with great difficulty. Groans aud scream*
of tba wounded were beard distinctly at West
Point. Both propellera went dowf tba river
A. Because we were near tbe enemy’s lines.
Q. Were all the pickets captured or did either
of them escape?
A There were some individual escapes on the
Lebanon and Bardstown roads, the majority were
captured? ..
(j. How long bad the regiment been in tbe ser
vice?
A. The regiment was organized some time in
May and went into active service after General
Bragg’s army had left Chattanooga.
Cross Examination. Q At what time did the
regiment leave Chattanooga, when did the regi
ment join Gen. Bragg’s army and how long there
after "before the capture took place!
A The regiment left Chattanooga on the 1st
day of September I think; we joined the army at
Sparta. Teun; the capture took place some time
about three or four weeks after we joined the
anry.
Q. Was this all tbe service they bad seen?
A This was all the service we had seen except
some three qr four days with Gen. Maxey at
Bridgeport.
Q Do yon or not remember that a?l the pickets
and sentinels had been stationed by order of Gen
Wheeler before Col. Crawford took tbe command
at New Haven?
A. Yes, en Thursday ovening Gen. Wheeler or
dered tbe pickets to be stationed on the different
roads ; on Friday evening Gen. Wheeler left Col.
Crawford in command ; this was on the 26th Sep
tember. •
Q Did Col. Crawford retain the picket posts so
establish and keep npon. them a picket gnard
according to tbe strength of his command up to
the time of bis capture?
A. Col. Crawford relieved the pickets establish
ed by Gen Wheeler, but I cannot a.iy whether be
ratained them in the same position, not having
visited the pickets myself. Colonel Crawford did
keep up picket guards at the point designated in
my former answer np to the time of his capture.
Q. Did Ool. Crawford send ont en Snnday evau-
Q. Was not that put out on account of a distil
lery, bnt a short distance off ?
A. I think it was.
Q. Is it usual for cavalry to pnt out a camp
guard ?
A. It ie not.
What precautionary measures were used by
Col. Crawford to prevent surprise after lie wa*
left at New Haven by Gen. Wheeler I
A. When Capt Thornton was pnt on picket, he
was sent for and instructed by Col. Crawford him-
•eif, [it being usual to instruct alone through the
Adjutant.] Col. Crawford told him that the Eliz
abethtown road where lie would he stationed was
the most dangerous road there was ; he expected
an approach of the enemy on that road at any mo
ment, and he wanted him to lie vigilant and to
hold his post as long, is he could—not to run in
too soon. And he also instructed tbe other pick
ets to be vigilant and not to tun in too soon —
When Lieut. Dennis came in, who was the o d
officer on the Elizabethtown road, which was the
r 0 ad on which tbe Yankees cante, he remarked to
Col.'Crawffurd, that the pickets » ere tiuder the itn
preasion that all they had to do, when the enemy
approached, was to fire and ride back to camp as
fast as they could. Col. Crawford immediately
sent for Capt Persons, the officer of the day, and
told him to go and reinitrnct the pickets, that they
must* hold their place until they were driven in,
so that the cantp could get ready. This was on
Sunday evening, tho day before the capture.
Q Do you remember any order as to his going
at once, and visiting post at night ?
A. The order was first given to Captain Persons
about sundown; at about 11 o’clock that night,
Col Crawford sent for Capt. Persons, remarking
that he did not believe he was going; when Capt.
Persons came Col. Crawford told him he must go
at once to all tbe pickets and give them that in
struction. Among other precautionary measures
used, Col. Crawford told me to go and see that
there should bo five roll calif a day, this waa, I
think, to parry ont an order of Geu. Wheeler’s
