The bonds are to bear interest at the rate jjf six per cent, per annum, and thus six hun dred and sixtv-six dollars, tlms invested, will yield the same amount of interest as one thousand dollars in the four per cents —forty dollars per annum in both cases.— So the holder of the notes wjil lose, noth ing in amount of interest, by neglecting to fund them at their expressed value in four per cenfs, and funding them hereafter at the rate of sixty-six cents in the dollar in six per cents.^ The interest on the six per cents is secured by the pledge of the tevenucsof the Confederacy derived from its import duties and its export duties on cotton, tobacco and naval stoics. No fund or revenue is pledged or set apart for (be payment of the interest on the four per cents. The holders of the six per cent, bonds will be preferred creditors of tbe (Government, secured by the mortgage of a sufficient amount of its revenues. It is probably the most desirable disposition to be made of wl.at remains of the bad cur- renev to convert it, scaled to the amount of ouo third, into the uewsix per cents. AVe think the Editor is mistaken.— The new six per cent, bonds are to be put up and sold in the market, for what they will bring. They will be very valuable.

The House of Peers—the tri bunal i:i the last resort—lias decided that the seizure of the vessels by the govern ment was illegal, and ordered their re lease. It is unnecessary to detail the circum stances connected uiitli this trial, as the}' are already well known to the public, hav ing been a subject of nmch newspaper dis cussion for a j ear past. 'I he judgment of the Peers in opposition to the government is well calculated to weaken the latter in the confidence of tbe people. In fact, all the judicial tribunals decided against it, and we have no doubt the government it self acted in opposition to its own opinion of the law aud justice ofthe case. The seizure was an act of cowardly truckling to Abolition threats on the part of a timid and unprincipled ministry. These reitera ted judgments against them should bring the entire government into contempt at home, as it is estimated already by the world abroad. Under no administration for the last hundred years has the British character suffered so severely as at the hands of those to whose keeping it is now entrusted. Russell lacks principle and courage, two essential qualities to the statesman. He is an Abolitionist ofthe deepest dye, and this fanatical feature in his character, as in Gort-ruor Vnace nntl Governor Brou n. T lie press reports from Fayetteville, North Carolina, bring u s intelligence that ! in a speech delivered to the people of that ■ „i .1,0. oo-l i- 1 <i I declared that he not only approved the j course pursued by Gov.

Indeed, it resembles au oldfashioned gar ret, full of relics and souvenirs of the past parmient, having with him a large quan tity of letters for Texas soldiers.

Disinforma tion is that the gr 'at batile took place on thclltliinst. In this connection we may state that a lady from Baton Rouge, ar rived a day or two since at Enterprise, re ports that large numbers of wounded were being brought in when she left, two boats having been pressed to convex them; that the understanding there was that Gen. Smith retired toward Shreveport before Banks, who, thinking he was forcing Smith hack, kept on in pursuit; that some commotion then occurred in the rear of a j 'be great subjects, lie afterward presented : trating—Gen il to the Legislature of Georgia In bis ’ ’ ’ I speech he declared that there was no sitni- | larity of views between Holden and Brown, nor did they work with the same object. It will thus be" seen that the Governor of North Carolina assumes the same position occupied by the Governor of Georgia— nay. not assumes, but declared that he held it prior to Governor Brown In North Caiolina thera me two candidates for Gov ernor—Holden and Vance, the present incumbent. The message of Governor Brown to the Georgia Legislature was j Batiks’forces, supposed to be lrom an at- held up by bis enemies as an encourage ment to Holden and bis traitorous crew, and they have, in fact, been endeavoring to make capital of it. Governor Vance lias been looked upon by the jtress of the South as the loyal candidate, and we find him not only coinciding with Governor Brown’s views, but claiming them as his own ideas, Adams, just from the trails-Mississippi do- —the rubbish of to day, hut the riches of yesterday. In conversation yesterday with an old man, who lias passed a long and useful life, and with whom it is now Indian sum mer, we were impressed with a remark he incidentally made. lie had seen the open ing of near seventy winters—at first the winters came and went, by and by unmel ted snow fiakos lingered in his hair, and lie-saw them drifting over the graves of one after another, whose feet with his had brushed the morning dewg together. At last they whitened over his old wife's last resting place—her who knew him when the shadows fell to the westward, and “the day was before” them both—who neve*r thought him old, though all the world pronounced him so. Every body said when she died, “it is a terrible blow to the old man,” and a few did all they could to make him forget; but there w ? as no need of that, “for,” said he. “they did’nl seem to know where the blow fell which they so deplored-they didn't think how much l missed somebody to help me lcmember!’ These few words indeed contain a Avotld of meaning. He did miss the other leaf from memory’s tablet. Two pair of eyes had but one rainbow—but one pair beheld it tack of guerrillas; that Banks sent a con siderable force to punish them, when the gueirillas proved to be Magruder, at-the head of his brave Texans, w ho at once commenced a heavy attack; that at the sound of Magruder’s guns, Smith checked his retreat, and.as agreed upon, suddenly assumed tlie offensive, and that tlieeneiny long before they were advanced to the j were completely routed, large numbers of | Q«w.

Governor Brown lias no sympathy-wiih Holden, nor them being driven into the river. The understanding at Baton Rouge is that the defeat of Banks was overwhelm- Vance is honest—and we have no. reason to doubt his honesty—lie is the one with whom the Governor of Georgia agrees,and who agrees with him. What will the newspaper enemies of Governor Bfown say, when the}’ read that Governor Vance, acknowledged b}’ them to be the loyal Confederate candidate for the guberna torial honors of North Carolina, favors tbe “agitating” and “nnpatiiotic” views of Governor Brown. Surely they will not infer, now that Governor Vance has spo ken his sentiments, that lie is a lory also, and that the great State of North Carolina ordar and published in New Orleans, real ly confirms this' belief. Mr. Adams brings the important intelii- i gencethat the Red river has fallen with j unexampled rapidity, leaving a number of Yankee gunboats and transports—some forty in all—above the falls, just above Alexandria, with no chance of getting Wel»li Snringi.

Snmliiiic in Winter. Sunshine is beautiful and joy-inspiring always. It is God’s smile lighting and cheering the world. All things animate and inanimate take on a new life in its presence. Not a flowerlnit gratefully re cognizes it, not a song-bird but carols the sweeter under its touch. How the rivulets Hash, and "the broad waters shimmer to its glance, while the valley atmosphere is goldenly a-haze, and the grand old woods and mountains are all a-flama with its kiss es. Earth, that under the cloud and the night shade seemed like one stricken with a mighty sorrow, now treads her round of space like a new-crowned queen. YVhrr amid the gushing sunshine can think of avght but life, health, joy, music, beauty and spletrdor ? Under the cloudless canopy of Heaven, seems not the fitting place for grief, or gloom, or death? Oh the voices of sunshine are voices of life—glad, exuber ant life ! And sunshine in winter, most beautiful of all. How it glorifies the pu rities of frost, and snow, and ice, now dis solving and now sparkling them with a thousand fold jewel radiance.

Russell has de oiai< ferred to him in everything, even to the j ove p incS3 0 f this humiliation of his country. British neu- j trality in the American war has been but little better than active intervention for the subjugation ot the South. 1’ torn tbe beginning tbe United States have, been buying ships, arms, and ammunition in Biitjsh ports aud recruiting her armies in almost every British town, and yet not a word of complaint has been uttered. 1 he building of a few steam rams, under cir cumstances that created a suspicion that they were intended for the Confederates, aroused all the ire and indignation of this 1 same honest Mipistry, and caused them to put foith every effort, legal and otherwise, to suppress what they were pleased ^ term “a violation of British ncutrality . The rams Vero seized and held up for ad- ^ judication. The lower courts decided there was no breach of neutrality, ana ordered the vessels to be released. Bussell then appealed to the Exchequer, a still higher tribunal, which also decided against him. A final appeal to the House ot 1 eers has met with a like result, and the rams, we suppose,.are now at liberty, and wi P 10 ceed to their destination, in spite of bew- ard’s threats and Russell’s poltroonery. We congratulate these two officials pn the figure they now cut before the world. ° J Sav- Republican aameti.

Crawford explained the object of the meeting, and said lie had been informed that there was a gentleman in tbe State, who was willing to give 8100,000 for the establishment of an Orphan Asylum, pro vided that the same amount be raised by others. It was also announced that an other sum of 530,000 could be probably obtained for the same purpose. It was further announced that 85,000 had been promised to an Institution. A gentleman living in tbe city promised to give to tbe Institution a lot in the city of fifty acre.s— worth 850,000. Addresses were made by Dr. Tucker, Rev. Mr, Tickenor. and Hon. J. L. M. Curry, of Alabama, and others.— It is understood that tbe Asylum is to be placed under Baptist control. The following amounts were subscribed for the purpose of the Institution; home—the cat, the chimney and the house n ife.

Their meetings were frequent- hut clandestine, as Loceola’s tribe aud the Cherokees were at war with each other. Nacoochee’s father heard of these secret meetings, and became enraged.— One night, says the legend, his daughter was missing, and warriors were sent in pur suit of her. They found bar with Loceola. In aD instant an arrow was aimed at his breast, Naeoochee sprang before him and receiv ed it in her own heart. * Her lover was stupified, made no resis tance, and was killed.

Nkgro Troops.—The catastrophe of the Y'ankees* at Fort Pillow, like their rout at Ocean Pond, and other mishaps that have befallen them of late, is attribu ted by themselves to the cowardice of their negro allies. VVe are well satisfied, says the Richmond Whig, that the result in each of these cases would have been tlie same, if the place of the negroes had been filled by Yankees. But at the same time we believe that the presence of the negroes hastened our victories and made them easier. YVo need not say to Soul hern readers that the negro has no qualities out of a hich a soldier can be manufactured. Any reliance upon him in that way is sure to bring disappointment and disaster. An army composed in any degree of such troops in ait army has a weak point,that always may be broken through by an ad versary that knows bow to use hi3 opportu nities. Hence it is that we bold that the enrollment of negro troops has brought into their atmies an element of positive weakness,and given ns a great advantage, l'he unnattural and diabolical attempt to turn slaves against their own masters reacts upon those who conceived tho vil lainy, and renders their overthrow more certain and speedy. Iu this as in other ways, the institution of slavery is being miraculously vindicated by the events of the war. Gwcrnr Drowns (Message in the Army. A correspondent of the Griffin Gazette over the signature of “Private Frank,” writes that paper a letter in which the fol lowing paragraph occurs: Pamphlet copies of the Message ofGov. Brown to the Legislature at its recent ses sion, have been sent to the company com manders of our command, and I presume to all the other Georgia troops. It has been extensively read and commented on by both officers and men. I find many who condemn the policy of the message “intoto,” (these say they have never,been Joe Brown men, and swear they nercr will be.) others agree with the Governor in some of his measures and differ from hint in oth ers ; but a majority of those whom I have heard express their opinions, agree witIi Gov. Brown in almost every measure pro posed. Ilis position in regard to the act passed bv Congress authorizing the sus pension of the writ of Habeas Corpus, meets ^ith tbe approval of many who have always been opposed to Joe Brown. Many who commend the Governor for his opposi tion to the conscript act, (because they thought the exigencies of the country de manded its passage) heartily endorse his recommendation to the General Assembly to “stamp the act (suspending the writ of Habeas Corpus) with the seal of their in dignant rebuke,” because they cannot see that there is any necessity for such a meas ure.” GEORGIA, Berrien County.
