COOSA RIVER
Editorial Correspondence.
Camp Brown, April 29, 1861.
Dear Courier :—Nothing of particu
larly exciting interest occurred on tho
Sabbath. The day was properly observ
ed, but as usual all hands turned out at
reveille at 5 o’clock A. M.; to dress pa
rade at 6} P. M., and we had tattoo at
the regular hour at 9J and taps at 10
P. M. The drums beat for churclj call
at 11 A. M., and most of the officers, in
full dress uniform, in the encampment
attended preaching at the stand,
excellent sermon was preaohod by the
ltev. Mr. Qraham, stationed preacher at
Marietta. Another particularly inter
esting sermon was preacliedat 3 o’clock
P. M., by President Rambeaut, of Cass-
villo. It is highly gratifying to know
that a large portion of the officers in
this Brigade possess that highest style
of bravery, which is fortified by Chris
tian faith, nnd a calm reliance in that
“Divinity which shapes our ends, rough
hew them ns wo will.”
Capt. M. A. Stovall was highly oom-
plimontod on Saturday by being ap
pointed pro tempore commander of the
Brigado during tha absence of Gen.
Phillips on Sunday. Dr. Lawrence was
also appointed substitute for tho Adju
tant General during two or three days
last week. It cannot be otherwise than
pleasant to tlio citizens of Homo and
vicinity to know that their companies
aro thus flatteringly noticed.
Gen. Phillips received a telographic
dispatch on Saturday from Got. Brown,
urging him to haston on the organiza
tion of tho Brigades rapidly as possi
ble, because ho expected the entire
force would very soon bo called into the
field.
It is astonishing indeed to notice tho
rapidity with which tho officers here
improve in drilling. Most of the com
panies belonging to this Brigado have
been organized during the last few
weeks, and a largo uajoiity of the com
pany officers, at the commencement of
this encampment, were almost entirely
ignorant of military tactios and discip
line. But their hearts are in the work
and they apply themselves with the ut
most earnestness. This is a beautiful
morning and the men look as bright as
their own new buttons.
Saturday at" P. M., 110 troops from
Alabama passed by here on their way
to Richmond, Va. They are to rendez
vous at Dalton for a short timo. Last
night at the same hour 450 more
from Alabama passed up to join them
The men here are all well, in excel
lent spirits and eager to go to tho
wars.
Capt. Mays, of Calhoun, with bis com
pany of 93 men, tho Toombs Volun
teers, passod down tho road for Augus
ta, this morning, and wo regret very
much to learn that ono of them, by the
name of Boocb, fell undor the train at
Calhoun and had bolh his legs cut off
by being run ovor. They aro a fine
looking sot of follows and as they pass
ed this camp they were greeted with
the most enthusiastic cheering.

N. J. REYNOLDS,
decfitwtf 1‘ropncto
Lincoi.n Treat-id with Imi-eaciim«nt.
—The New York 'Times diucredits the
statement that Lincoln ordered the
Pennsylvania troops to turn bock from
Cockeysville, thirteen miles from Balti-
msro, and encamp in Pennsylvania,
though the report is undoubtedly true.
Tho Times notices it os a “startling re
port,” and says, after premising that It
is untrue.
Under this bolief we abstain from
such comments as such an agreement
on the part of tho President would nat
urally provoke. We will simply ro-
mark that the President runs no small
risk of being superceded in his office, if
ho undertakes to thwart tho clear and
manifest determination of tho people
to maintain tho authority of the Gov
ernment of the United States, and to
protect its honor. Wo are in tho midst
of a Revolution, and in such emergen
cies the people are very apt to findsom*
representative, leader, if tho forms of law
do not happen to give them one. It
would bo well for Mr. Lincoln to boar
in mind the possibility of such an
event.
OorrMpendencaof tha Memphis Avatanehe
Cairo, Ill., April 24.-8 P. M.—Nev
er was a seen such excitement in Cairo
as exists at present. On Monday acom-
umy of soldiers from Chicago arrived
lere, and since that time they have
been pouring in constantly, ana at th*
timo of writing there are 1,750 men in
the placo and its suburbs, and an emp
ty train has just departed for more.
They have only two small pieces Of
cannon at present, but it is understood
that a park of ten heavy guns will ar
rive to-morrrw.
The present condition of the river
will impede greatly their operations,
and the batteries will have to be placed
on the levee, and consequently easy of
capture by an invading force.
The military here are as yet unable
to stop all suspected boats, on account
oi their want of cannon, but os soon as
the batteries aro erected every South
ern-bound boat will be overhauled and
articles contraband of war seized. It
is not known who will command the
troops concentrated here.
Opinions among the citizens of Cairo
are divided. A minority, however, are
friendly to tho South.
Passengers who have just arrived on
the down train, state that every bridge
between this place and Sandoval is
strongly guarded. Whether this is
done to koep open the moans of re
treat, or for rear of the people along the
line of road destroying them, I am at a
loss to know.
Cairo, Ill., April 25, 2 A. M.—Since
the brief letter addressed you by me
last evening, groat changes have taken
place. Two thousand more men have
arrived, and are quartered within a
mile and a half of the place. 1 saw
them disembark from the cars, and a
sorry-looking set they aro. There aro,
all told, now about fivo thousand troops
within an hour of Cairo. Many are sta
tioned along the lino of the railroad;
others are guarding the levee above and
below tho place. Fully two thousand
are right here. They have mode the
landlord of the St. Charles Hotel “vamos*
Die ranchs" most unceremoniously. In
other words, the officers of the troops
have taken possession of the hotel
nolens volens, and it is now the headquar
ters.
The Old Brewery, one mile from the
hotel, northeast of it, is the other
rendezvous. From both places the
United States flag floats—huge ones at
that.
Of the troops here, fully three hun
dred are supposed to be negroes, and
tho remainder have been picked up
from the gutters of Chicago and among
the Dutch. A force of ono thousand
firm hearted Southern men would drive
them from the place, if the attack was
properly mado.
Cairo is under martial law. The wo
men and ohildren have fled the city,
and the soldiery now have entire pos
session of tho town. The citizens here,
os a class, are for the South, and await
only a favorable opportunity to show
their resistance to the meroenariee
who hare rendered their homes deso
late.
During the entire night workmen
have been engaged in erecting a batte
ry on the Missouri side of tne river.
The moon has revealed the foot, and a
large number of Lincolnites have been
standing to their guns since the work
commenced, anticipating an attack.
The Missourians are with the South to
a man almost, and will soon make Cairo
by interest and inclination, also with
the South, too hot to hold tho soldiery.
Their battery will command tho town
perfectly.
Information has also been received
here that there are eight hnndred men
at Paducah, waiting orders to march
here to take the place. This intelli
gence has ronderea tho troops more ac
tive. It is also stated that the citizens
of Columbus have planted a forty-two
pounder on the bank of the river, and
arc}anxiously expecting some steamer
that has Lincoln’s troops onboard. Are
you preparing?
At tho levee yesterday, a man jump
ed ashore from a steamboat and huzza
ed for Lincoln. He was knocked down
in an instant, and nearly beaten to
death. This will show the feeling or
our people here.
