From the Atlanta Appeal.
The General hi I nation.
From a general survey of the whole field
of military operations, extending from
Maryland to Texas, the conviction is forced
upon us that everything is progressing
favorably for the Confederate cause.—
Grant and Sherman have made but slow
progress in their great and magnificent
enterprises against Richmond and Atlanta,
and in another month from this time they
will be stripped of their old three years’
men, and compelled to finish up the war
as best they can with new troops. In tins
view of the subject time is working in our
favor with as much effect as our armies,
for it cannot be supposed that, deprived
of their veteran soldiers, the Yankee gen
erals can make much heSdway against Lee
and Johnston, who will make short work
with the negroes and raw recruits of which
the Federal armies will in future be chief
ly composed.
That the most gloomy views of the situ
ation are taken by the thinking portion of
the Northern people themselves, is evident
from the continued, steady and rapid rise
in gold. They see clearly 1 he handwrit
ing on the wall, and are becoming convinc
ed, if they are not already satisfied, ‘bat
the conquest and subjugation of the South
is both an impossibility and an absurdity,
and without this and the confiscation of
Southern property to pay their war debt,
they know that their government is bank
rupt, and that their greenback currency
is worth ao.more than so much blank pa
per.
Nor is the political state of affairs in the
North calculated to give hope and encour
agement to our would-be subjugators.—
Harmony on the war question lias fled
from their councils and anarchy stares
them iu the face, with a fair prospect'tliat
the peace ticket will prevail in the Novem
ber election. The Republicans are hope
lessly divided among themselves, and the
prospects are flattering for a rupture be
tween the Northwestern States. The
feeling of hostility already existing be
tween them lias lately been increased by
the passage of the new tariff bill through
the Yankee Congress, by means of which
the New England manufacturers are en
abled to saddle the Northwest with the
burden of the war debt; and the out-spo
ken letter of Marshall Anderson, of Ohio,
which we published yesterday, shows very
clearly that the eyes of the Northwestern
people .ire not closed to- the injustice of
such class legislation. *IIe speaks out
boldly for a Western Confederacy, and
we may reasonably assume that be is but
the representative of a very largo class of
people, who entertain views similar to those
of his own.
After a calm review, therefore, of both
pm forma, on condition that the prosecu
tion should be stopped, or some .compro
muse ot tiiat sort—even that would be of
no avail : such compromises may answer
well enough when the grand affairs that
interest both parties are going on smoothly,
and the parties really desire to settle
minor differences arid act in harmony as
before : but when all goes wrong, and eve
ry one is looking out tor some one else to
blame, then compromise is neither desir
able nor sometimes possible. If the Dix
ease were not there, some other would do
as well ; for the great State of New Y’ork
was bound to abandon the falling Federal
fortunes. If their War had been a mag
nificent success, then, indeed, New York
would have accepted more than her share
of the spoils and the glory; as it is a mon
strous failure, she will of course try to
avoid her share of the burdens and of the
disgrace.
As for Vallandigham and Ohio, that
matter is simply one sample of the inevi
table quarrel of the Great Northwest with
the small but greedy East : that the North
western States have been cheated, that
they have not got “the free navigation ot
the Mississippi,” and never will, against
the will of the States on its banks; and
that their farming interests are systemat
ically sacrificed to the martufacturers of
the East, are facts of which the people of
the Northwest are angrily conscious : they
are conscious, too, -of their power and re
sources. and have no idea of fcurthening
their children with taxation imposed (as
they affirm) in interest of New England.—
It is very evident that the Washington
Government is aware of the fonnidable
nature of this discontent, and fears to
provoke it; otherwise undoubtedly Val
landigham would be re-arrested at Hay-
ton.
Kentucky, too, finds herself now nearly
in the situation that she wrought for and
might have expected. When, at the out
break of this war, the dominant party in
Kentucky assumed the stupid and coward
ly position of neutrality, they degraded
their State, prepared its certain ruin, and
purchased for it the contempt of both
North and South. Good Confederate
Kentuckians, who came to serve our cause
and their own, if they have lost their prop
erty, have at least saved their honour:
these neuters have saved neither the one
nor the other. It soon appeared that in
stirring times the policy of neutrality is
impossible : neither man nor State can es
cape duty and responsibility in this way;
but must elect a cause and therewith stand
or fall. Therefore, it is no wonder that
the people of Kentucky also are believed
at Washington to be ripe for movement;
and as the State stands straight across the
line of Sherman’s communications (if that

conquest abandoned, the. war spirit will
speedily die out, anarchy will take the
place of law and order, and our quondam
Northern friends will fall victims to their
own wicked and hellish passions. Such
a fate would only be a just retribution for
the malicious and nefarious war they have
waged upon us and the direful fate to
which they had destined our people. We
have an abiding faith that in the end the
bitter cup of woe and misery intended for
us will be rendered to their own lips, and
that another year will not pass away
before they shall have drained it to the
dregs.
the present state of their
affairs intolerable, iniglit, it is thought,
raise the State behind Sherman, especially
if Ohio be already moving on the other
side of the river ;—in short, Lincoln per
ceives that it is time to make preparations
for military coercion of Kentucky : and is
Kentuckians endure that tamely, we trust
that they may be Yankees and serfs of
Yankees from age to age.
Taking all these things together, we
believe that it was full time for Abraham
Lincoln to call the people to prayer on the
first Tuesday in August. By that day,
indeed, the whole Federal concern may
be past praying for.
From the Richmond Examiner.
It was easy to see, long since, that the
Yankee “War for toe Union” must end in
a Y'ankee civil war, by which the last
fragment of the old Union would be shiver
ed to pieces. It was easy even to predict
about what time that civil war would com
mence, namely, about the time when the
Federal finances should break down and
Congress should attempt the vast taxation
which alone could keep the concern going.
It will therefore surprise no persou that
the Governor of New Y'ork State has or
dered a draft of seventy-five, thousand men
—expressly and avow, dly to fight a Fed
eral army. General Dix, Federal com
inandant of the city, broke the State law
by invading forcibly the offices of two
newspapers : the District Attorney prose
cuted him, and a warrant was issued for
bis arrest but he. bad acted under the or
ders of President Lincoln ; Lincoln there
fore, feeling bound to sustain his officer,
desires him to disobey and resist the war
rant ; and now, to enforce it the Governor
calls out liis seventy-five thousand men.
It is impossible to avoid connecting this
symptom of storm iu New Y ork with two
other circumstances in other States; one
19 the proclamation of martial law in Ken
tucky. proving that there are brewing in
that State serious eloments of insurrection
against the foul tyranny of Washington :
and the other is, the return of the exiled
Vallandigham to his home in Ohio, in de
fiance, and even ostenatious defiance of
the order for bis banishment. Civil war is
preparing to array itself in Kentucky and
Ohio as well as in New Y'ork.
Neither is it surprising that all these
troubles should be ripening at about the
same time. The increasing difficulties of
the country and destruction of public
credit,—the approach of a Presidential
election exciting men’s minds with hope
of some change for the better,—the utter
failure of the year’s campaign, and the
prospect of heavy taxes, of which each
State is determined that it will not pay
its share,—these are the very series of
facts which were expected and predicted,
and which fall due about this time. If an
insane nation cultivates revolution, it must
not he astonished when the crop comes to
maturity : if it plants and waters ruin and
bankruptcy, God givetb the increase : and
those who have sown the wind need not
stare iu blank amazement when called on
to reap their whirlwind harvest.
It is true that the threatening state of
affairs in the State of New ‘York lias no
visible connection with the failure in war
and in finance, nor with taxes and tariffs;:
it appears at first view an accidental dif
ference arising from the violent act of an
individual officer : but in truth the quarrel
was ripe ; the storm was brewed and
ready ; any slightest occasion was enough
to let it loose. Even should the present
difficulty be evaded or staved oft, by Lin
Our Victory in Mississippi.
The following dispatch we extract from
the Appeal of Sunday morning. As will
be seen the Federals are in frill retreat,
and we feel assured of their being followed
every step of the way to Memphis, by
the indomitable Forrest and his gallant
men.
We cannot overestimate the importance
of this victory to the Confederate army.—
The State of Mississippi has been relieved
of the presence of the foe, and Sherman
will not receive the reinforcing column un
der Smith. In a few days more wo expect
to hear of Forrest being on a tour in North
Georgia.
Tupelo, July 1G.—We left Tupelo on
Sunday last, and have been fighting on the
prairies. The enemy refused to advance
and moved on Pontotoc.
On Wednesday the enemy declined bat
tle and moved towards Tupelo.
We struck them in the flanks on every
road, but raid movements prevented con
centration.
On Tuesday we attacked him with three
cavalry divisions at old Harrisonburg,
but failed to drive him from his strong
position.
The enemy declined every invitation
to fight.
Friday afternoon our troops being well
up and about to bring the affair to an
issue, the Yankees fled and are in full
retreat.
The enemy fought stubbornly when
compelled to do so, but was evidently
afraid of a set fight.
Our loss was severe.
Smith had 15,000 troops all veterans
except eight regiments of negroes.
The People Respond.—We are gratified
to be able to announce that the volunteer
ball is in motion, «Dd the people in this
vicinity are making active preparation to
be ready to start to the front, in obedience
to the call of the Governor. .We think
this community will turn out a large num
ber of troops, many of whom will go ac
tuated by a sense of duty to fight in this
hour of our State’s peril pro certs et focet.—
We are happy to note such a state of feel
ing in Savannah, and trust there will be no
necessity for an armed force to drive them
to the front.
NOVEL PLAN OF COURTSHIP.
At a wedding recently celebrated, were
present some twenty-five young persons,
all of them in a condition which for various
reasiens they generally concurred in regard
ing as undesirable—the “unengaged.”
One of the gentlemen of the party suspec
ted the prevalence among them of feelings
that might easily be exchanged for others
indefinitely more fixed and agreeable. lie
accordingly proposed the choosing of a
president, a person worthy of all confi
dence, whose duty it should be to receive
from each individual a folded paper, in
scribed with the name of the persons han
ding it in, and also with the name of a per
son of the other six, whom the first would
be willing to marry. The president, in
addition to the restraints of Lis own sense
of honor, was to be put under a solemn
pledge of eternal secresy. AU refusing to
accede to the proposition were for the time
to leave the room.—Those whose choice
was reciprocal, that is, whose papers con-
j tained the same two names, were to be
privately informed, while the selections of
others were to remain undisclosed. The
result tvas that the trial was made, all
shared in the experiment, and eleven
couples were fouud to have made them
selves happy; and their several unions
were afterwards consummated.
The Key of Richmond.—The following
appears in a Northern paper :—
Key Lost—80,000 Reward.—Lost,
near Fort Darling, the Key to Richmond,”
which, as was announced by the Repub
lican papers, was entrusted to the keeping
cf the subscriber. It is supposed to have
been taken by a fellow named Beauregard,
who violently assaulted, battered and
thrashed the subscriber, causing him to
skedaddle in 6uch haste that he dropped
the key. The above reward will be paid
in Lincoln skius to any one who will re
store it.
Ben. Butler.
What males up a Yankee Rcginunt.—A
number of army officers being present at a
dinner, the conversation turned upon the
condition and efficiency of their different
regiments. Gol. . of the New York
—th, stated that nine different nations
coin relieving Dix, or by Dix surrendering , son.
Yallandigham.—Saulsbury,of Delaware
made a speech in the Lincoln Senate on
the 27th ult., upon a bill to provide for
bail in cases of military arrest. He said :
“If there should be a law proposed al
lowing a man to shoot down the officer
attempting such an arrest, lie wouid vote
for it; and he would welcome the thunder
bolt, whether from Heaven or from Hell,
that would strike down the violators of our
chartered rights. He alluded to cases in
his own State under the administration of
Gen. Sclieuck, or Gen. Skunk, whichever
name is more appropriate to his character,
sent to arrest his constituents, men whom
gentlemen would not admit to their kitch
en. He thanked God that Clement L.
Vallandigham had returned. He had been
sent into exile with threats of imprison
ment if he returned. Now he has return
ed ; let those threats be executed. He
understood that an order bad been issued
for his arrest, but that it had been revoked.
He would say to the party in power that
the Democratic party will stand by the
rights of the trial by jury and of liberty of
speech, peaceably if possible, but by the
eternal gods, forcibly if we must, and you
may make the most of it if that be trea-

S TENOGRAPHERS AND PHONOGRAPH-
ERS.—Proposals will be received by tbe un
dersigned until the first day of September next,
for contracts for making verbatim reports of tbe
proceedings and debates of the Senate of the Con
federate States-
Tbe contractor will be required to fuminsh his
own assistants. The sessions of the Seuate will,
it is estimated, average abont six months per an
num, and about three hours per day.
Stationery will bo furnished at tbe expense of
the Senate, an also a reporter's room for writing
ont notes, together with lights and fuel.
The contract will be made for one year from tbe
first Monday of November next, and a prorata
compensation paid tbe contractor monthly.
The reports must embrace a verbatim report of
all motions, resolutions, remarks, speeches, and
such amendments offered as may be necessary to
explain the debates.
The committee estimate that the principal re
porter and three assistants can perforin the work.
The chief reporter and bis assistants will be
officers of the Senate, and entitled to the privileges
and immunities incidental thereto, and removed
by the Senaie for any ./ant of capacity or fideli

papers.
Proposals will be addressed to James L. Or*,

their artny had abandoned our front,
and were threatening our communica
tion with our rear. At Resaca we of
fered them battle, and succeeded in
bringing on a partial engagement,—
Who could witness the intrepid cool
ness with which our men charged the
enemy, and doubt that we would be
successful? One brigade (Clayton’s
Alabama brigade) charged over twen
ty thousand Yankees in a fortified po
sition, inflicting great damage to the
enemy, and sustaining a severe loss
themselves, and only retired-when pos
itive orders were received to fall back.
General Johnston is the bravest and
most cool man when under fire that I
ever saw. lie is almost reckless with
his own life, but is exceedingly care
ful with the lives of bis men. I saw
some eight or ten Yankee cannon open
ou one of our batteries a little to the
right of the little town of Resaca.
They were firing with great fury and
precision, throwing sand sky high, and
had already killed several soldiers at
the guns of the battery, when Gener
al Johnstun rode up. He dismounted,
gave his horse in charge of his orderly,
and coolly mounted the parapet of the
battery, so as to observe the firing of
the enemy. They could plainly see
him, for they were not very far dis
tant. Their firing was very accurate.
General Johnston had not been on the
parapet over five minutes when a shell
buried itself in the ground within five
paces of him, throwing dust all over
his clothes. This did not seem to move
him at all; he did not notice it, but
stood calmly looking at the firing of
the enemy until it slackened. F^r
'over an hour the shells were falling
and bursting all around him. It is un
fortunate that lie should be so reckless
with bis life, for if he should be killed
or wounded, it would have a most de
moralizing effect upon his troops, who
fairly idolize him. General Bragg had
the respect of his troops—f speak of
the privates—and they had every con
fidence in him, but General Johnston
is loved by them; he undergoes the
same hardships as the privates—does
not even have a tent to sleep in. I
have seen him sleeping on the ground
under a tree, with only one blanket
under him. Think of that, you home
soldiers, Joe Johnston, the comman
der-in-chief of one ot your largest ar
mies—one, on whom to a great extent
depends the fate of the Confederacy—
sleeping on the ground ! Oh, ye street
corner Generals, who are censuring
him for falling back so far, what say
you to this act of true nobleness?—
Does this satisfy you? Or must the
man who so freely poured out his
blood at Seven Pines be doomed to the
same unpleasant criticisms as it pleas
ed you to bestow on his illustrious
namesake, Albert Sidney Johnston.
The enemy have continued their
endeavors to flank us, which has neces
sitated our falling back still further.
It is exceedingly unpleasant to give up
so much of our territory, but every
one must be conscious that it is for
the best. The citizens have been very
patriotic; they have fed the sick, nur
sed the wounded, gave or sold at triv
ial prices, thousands of pounds of ba
con and flour to the Government.—
Many of the citizens abandoned their
homes, left everything on earth that
they possessed, and are uow homeless
exiles among you. Surely, these peo
ple who have fed and nursed your 3ons,
brothers and husbands in the Army of
Tennessee, are not going to be neg
lected by the citizens of the Confed
eracy. We notice with pleasure that
many of them have been provided for,
but more remains yet to be done. Re
