May his shadow never grow less.
Sad Accident is Emanuel.—A melancholy
casualty occurred in Emanuel county, on the
16th instant, at the residence of Mrs. T. Can-
nady. The particulars, as furnished us by the
Postmaster at Swainsboro, are as follows: Mrs.
Cannady’s eldest sou attempted to shoot a bird
near by, and his gun failing to fire, he returned
towards the house, when, as he entered the
door the gun was accidentally discharged, the
contents taking effect in the breast of the
youth's grandmother, Mrs. R. Durden, and
killing her almost instantly. Our correspon

From the tone of the New York Black Re
publican press for the last few days, we judge
Northern zeal and valor is oozing out, like
Bob Acres’, at their fingers ends. But ten days
a ,ro these same valiant editors had already
whipped and butchered all the men, women
and children in the Confederate States, and
divided out their lands among their grand ar
my of thieves, robbers and assassins. When
they find, however, that the Southern people,
with a stern and deadly purpose that will brook
no swerving, are determined to co-operate with
them in the distribution of “ free farms'—only
differing with the Northern tacticians as to the
area of the aforesaid farms the ferocious
Webb and blood-thirsty Greeley display a won-
derfel abatement in their programme. The
same moderation evinced by them is manifes
ting itself among the masses at the North.
Their first purpose was to give one grand
whoop, when if the secessionists did not at once
retire to their holes, the Northern soldiers were
to stand on the north bank of the Potomac, and
with a huge double barrel bowie-knife cut
off the heads of all the Southern people at one
fell blow. That didn't succeed, though. Seie 'al
little things have transpired South that were
not in the bills. For these the renowned
Kangaroo and his tribe of vagabonds were not
prepared. Accordingly they now announce,
that as the Southern troops are better discip
lined than theirs, and the South is sufferin
for food, it will be best for them to delay their
invasion of Southern territory until the “reh
are starved out; when they will return to
their allegiance, and come up to Washington
and gracefully submit to be bunged.
Poor, deluded rascals ! We are at a loss to
know whether the Northern people are the
greater fools or knaves. Is it possible that,
with all their boasted enlightenment, they don’t
know any more than this about Southern re
sources. W r hy, the grain crop of this year,
with the blessings of Providence, will feed us
for two years to come. But these miserable
people in the barbarian North think we make
uo grain; and not having the nerve to face ns
in battle, they would fain gain a bloodless vic-
torv by starving us out. So much for North
ern pluck—of humanity they arc alike des-

A Strange Proceeding.
Governor Brown has issued an order which
we publish elsewhere—prohibiting volunteer
companies, leaving the State ui der the orders
of the Confederate Government, from carrying
the arms belonging to the State with them,
unless he sees proper to give his permission.
We presume this is in consequence of the re
cent passage of the “Cadet Volunteer Bill
by the Confederate Congress, which gives pow
er to President Davis to accept volunteer com
panies offering themselves directly to him from
the different States. Of the regiments formed
of volunteers thus offering, the President ap
points all the officers above the grade of captain.
Governor Brown may imagine that Georgia
companies entering the service of the Confed
erate States directly, without his assent, are ig
noring his authority and treating him with dis
respect. That he is determined the public
shall not forget him, is evident from the fre
quency with which his name is paraded in the
newspapers appended to proclamations, orders,
etc., which interfere with the workings of the
Confederate States, and usurp functions clearly
and unmistakably belonging to that Gov
ernment.
We have, on several occasions, felt called
upon to compliment Gov. Brown upon the
zealous and patriotic promptitude he has ex
hibited in defending and protecting the honor
of Georgia and the property of her citizens
from the assaults of her foes, before she be
came a member of the Confederate Govern
ment. The taking possession of Fort Pulaski,
and the seizure of Northern vessels in the har
bor of Savannah as reprisals, by his orders,
were commended throughout the country as
idenees of his determined purpose to meet
any emergency. As such we characterized
them, and we are still of the same opinion.
But we are immeasurably pained to see the
State of Georgia placed in an attitude of an
tagonism to the Confederate Government. This
government is in its iufancy, and it is not to be
supposed that it can supply all its troops with
arms, unless assisted by the respective States
composing it. There has been no difficulty
with any of the other States, and we trust as
pure a man as we believe Joseph E. Brown to
be, morally, will not suffer Georgia to occupy
the isolated position of a laggard in the great
cause of Southern Independence, by embar
rassing the action of the Government at Mont-

oughly conquered by Lincoln s army. Gen.
Harney bas 15,000 troops now in St. Louis,
and everything is under bis control. Riots are
common. If the Missourians do not expel the
merciless .butchers who are quartered upon
their soil, they deserve to he chained to the car
of the Northern Kangaroo. Now, they are
bound hand and foot in St. Louis. This cornea
of delay in taking the only course left to all
freemen in such emergencies as this. History
has been written to no purpose if men will not
profit by its facts.
The War News.
The hall has opened at Norfolk. We publish
the telegraphic accounts in another column.
The news’from Fort Pickens does not seem
to indicate that there will be fighting tlieie
shortlv. It is surmised by the Montgomery
Mail that the Confederate forces will not attack
the Federal stronghold for sometime to come.
This, however, is only conjecture.
Stirring events may be expected in Virginia
shortly, if Lincoln has not adopted the timid
policy, which, as it is natural, we think quite
likely. The North is puzzled. They don’t
know which horn of the dilemma to seize. It
who were liable at any
hatred of Southern men because of their pros
perity—to be turned loose upon their brethren
of the South to murder them and their families,
and commit crimes to which demons from the
infernal regions would not lend their hands?
But so it is. We now see the North in its true
colors. Having failed to intimidate us by
threatening to give up our land to fire and
sword, and subject us to the j^rbarities of
worse than savage warfare, they now playfully
propose to starve us out. Enlightened North !
Refined North! Intellectual North! These
are thefruits of your enlightenment, vo ir refine

you, too; and you may think of the Southern
“ brutes” in time to come when you shall be
mowing hay in Broadway, and the owl shall
make his home in the dome of yotir City Hall.
Time will prove this picture true; for the South
ern man who shall ever hereafter buy a dollar s
wor h of goods of our enemies will find this
climate rather unpleasant for his physical
comfort.
vanity.
It is possible that in this case, as in many
others, the Governor’s zeal has dethroned his
judgment. At any rate, the present is a most
unpropitious moment to exact a rigid compli
ance to his acute notions of punctilio. It may
be that the Governor, like the famous knight
of La Mancha, suspects himself to be some one
e ] sc —President Davis, for instance—and acting
upon such conception, is running a tilt against
the rest of mankind.” This is at least a rea
sonable presumption, for upon what other hy
pothesis can we account for the numerous war
measures adopted by our State Executive, not
withstanding everybody knows, or ought to
know, that the power to make war, or promul
gate orders in reference thereto, resides exclu
sively in the President and Congress of the
Confederate States.
In other respects—aside from this idiosyn
crasy of the centralization of power in his own
person—Governor Brown has made an excel
lent Chief Magistrate; and it is to be hoped
that he will not now, near the close of his sec
ond and last term, render himself ludicrous
nor sully the honor of Georgia by his political
blunders.
A Lesson for the Times.
There is, says the Savannah Republican, a
practical duty set forth in the following para
graph which all should lay to heart, and all
practice who tan. Men well to-do in the world
are too prone to underrate the importance ot
a small debt to the family of a poor man.
They are strangers to want themselves, and, in
many cases, can not see how a few dollars, aud
sometimes cents, can make a material difier-
ence with those less favored than themselves.
It would be well if the rich would mingle more
with the poor and learn their real condition.
It is in this way alone that they can become
prepared for a Christian distribution of the
abundant stores that have been vouchsafed to
them by a kind Providence. But how many
avoid the poor, and even fly from a knowledge
of their wants, and that, too, when they lavish
thousands on ostentatious charities, the gilded
dome of a church, a magnificent organ, or the
pagan wretches ten thousand miles away!
But to the lesson, from which we had almost
straved:
Pay Your Small Debts.—This is good ad
vice, and there never was a time when it is a
more solemn duty. V hen the small debts are
paid, there is general confidence among our
home people, and the wheels of trade move on
regularly and easily. Besides, it is the small
debts which control all the big ones, and which
most materially affect trade. None are payinjr
to our enemies, but all should make a special
effort to pay their small debts to their friends,
if for no other reason that it diffuses good spin
its, gives confidence and greases the wheels of
trade, all which arc so necessary and indispen
sable at the present time. Let all pay up, and
all will feel better and thus promote the conr
mon weal. Pay up, but especially pay all
small debts.
As there are probably more small debts due
the printer than any one else, we hope the
friends and patrons of the Georgian who are in
arrears will carefully read, and promptly act
upon the above excellent advice.
The Point Conceded.
The Abolitionists have not been slow to dis^
cover the real meaning ot Lord John Russell
when he spoke of British fleets, and the Con
federate States as a belligerent. The New
York Times interprets his language as follows,
and grows terribly wrathy over its own con
elusions-:
England and Piracy.—The telegraph from
Halifax, notices a debate on American affairs
in the House of Commons on the 4th, in which
Lord John Russell is reported to have said that
our blockade ol the Southern ports can only be
recognized “ when effective,' —and that regar
ding letters-of-marque, the Government were
of opinion that the Southern Confederacy must
be recognized as belligerents.”
The ouly meaning ot this is, that their right
to issue lette.s-of-marque must be recognized ;
their privateers must he regarded as legitimate
combatants—and the English Government will

The Crops.
From all parts of the Southern Confederacy
we have the most cheering accounts of the
crops. It is the general opinion that fully one-
third more corn will be made this year than
last. The wheat crop is also largely increased.
From Texas to Virginia, and throughout Ar
kansas, Tennessee and Kentucky, the accounts
all go to prove that never before, in any one
year, has there been such heavy crops of gram
planted, and it all promises well. Here in Old
Washington, and throughout Middle Georgia,
as much as a third more land than last- year
has been planted in corn—we have had good
seasons thus far, and it is growing finely. Onr
grain crop will yet prove to be the most effec
tive agent in .defeating the Northern barbari
ans. They will find that the project of starving
us out is a crazy idea.

nothing is known outside the headquarters. We
conversed with several officers from the camps,
and they allas-ure us that nothing can be certainly
known. Our own impression, formed while in

the head of their column turned and hrec d wn

these men—the b-st soldiers in the world—at
