«u»/ »mrmrn >aa<B»awwdKHMife»irtiii 1 ' ~ r it'ni 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 - Headquarters Armv of Tknn., J July 17, 1864.

With the hope of our 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- were represented in his regiment, and, after going over Irish, German, French, English, &c., several times. . could not enumerate but eight. He sard he was cer tain there were nine, but wlrnt the other was lie could not remember. Lieut , who was present, suggested “Americans.” “By Jove !” said the colonel, ‘that’s it— Americans 1” 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 ty. A fair copy of the daily reports must be writ ten complete in time for the next daily morning papers. Proposals will be addressed to James L. Or*, Anderson, South Carolina. JALE8 L. ORR, Chairman, R. W. JOHNSON, A. G. BROWN. Richmond, June 11th, 1864 . 5 6t. 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.
