DAILY NEW ERA. J. W PHILLIPS. «• prathkr PHILLIPS & PRATHER, EDITORS AND PROPRIETORS. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Thursday Morning, Sept- 14, 1865. WOMKN AND THE WAR. Woman has more or less given cast to eve ry i* Ocular age of the world’s history. From the earliest traditional periods of the great volume of the world, dowu to the times in which we live, times whose history is yet vivid in the minds of the people, the part wo man has borne is indefatigably a prominent one. The periods of Roman history that are most illustrious, are those in which her wo men were most virtuous and patriotic. When the gates of the temple of James were flung open, and the women bade their fathers, hus bands and sons go to battle for their country or for conquest, the Roman eagle spread its wings in triumph over the battle field. Then every Roman matron was a Lucretia, every Roman mother was a Cornelia, every Roman maiden was true to her troth. And so in the history of other nations.— Though woman has seldom been instrumen tal in inaugurating any especial epoch, there are numberless instances in which she, by her virtues and indomitable perseverance and fi delity, have shaped them. She is always true to the cause of her countrymen. She sends her dear ones to the field to do battle for her and her country. While the “world is full of Florence Nighlengales” it is equally full of Archedamias, who are ready to say to their faltering champions, even when success is bid under a gathering cloud of revrses, We are brave men’s mothers, brave men’s wives, We are ready to do or dare; We are ready to man yonr walls with our lives, And sun g your bows with our hair. In our own t*me, and in the war just ended, the women of both sections of the country have left the impress of their virtues upon it, and history will record many deeds of their noble self-sacrifice and devoted patriotism.— On this subject the Louisville Journal speaks better than we can. In its issue of the 10th, it says : “we believe it was Thackeray who said, “ the world is full of Florence Nighten gales." The great satirist who was no spaci al admirer of the gentler sex, yet he was wil ling to do women justice when the severities of his nature were relaxed, and the pulsations of his heart were freed from the restraints of a cold, rigid intellectuality. It is true that the world is full of Florence Nighlengales— fa ler by far than grave-yards are of “ guilt less” Cromwells, or “mute inglorious Mil tons.” Our late terrible visitation by the sword has shown this conclusively. Almost every hamlet throughout our widespread country has furnished its ministering angel, who has bent in gentleness over the wounds of the wounded soldier, and poured out oil and wine with words of kindest encourage ment. •• Some there are who heedlessly accuse the ladies of the land of having been instrumental in bringing about those feelings of bitterness and estrangement which were the cause of our internecine troubles. But the charge is founded on exceptions, and, in any general sense, is al together untrue. In the South there were no female politicians before the war ; and in the North political eccentricities ware indulged in by only a few of the moat unwomanly of strong minded extremists, who were willing to unsex themselves tor the questionable advantages of notoriety. It may therefore be assumed that the women of America bad no agency in bring jog about the war. As soon, however, as the I thunder of the first gun was heard, there was a f d.vision of the female clans, and all their sym- L patties were enlisted either on one side or the [pother. There was no weighing of cou.equences waiting tor those convictions which arise from PLlogicai deductions ; judgment, in most women. . / is subordinate to the affections, and the affec- V lions clustered around those fathers, husbands, sons and brothers who had armed themselves for the strife on opposite sides, each firm in bis convictions—each determined to achieve suo ce-s. •‘When the struggle, fierce and deadly, kept on from year to year, and the severities of the cutup became irksome to the contestants, then it was that the influence of woman was felt in all its powers —then did the Flotence Nigbten g lies appear I The Northern women, strong in their patriotic confidence—strong in the num bers who fonght bn their aide—strong in the sympathies ot the great outer world—found eucouragement everywhere and gave it without •tint. Their duties were scarcely sacrifices ! Tbeir labors were the labors of a whole-hearted ■ar’ “ With Southern women the case was d ff r r 'Snt. Though the ‘heart of the rebellion’ was in their hearts, yet in ministering to the cause they were obliged to j-übmit to privations of the ut most severity. Nursed in the lap of luxury, as many of them were—accustomed to every im aginable indulgence which gallantry could o mrnand or money purchase—they were wil ling not only to relinquish these, but to-become bumble toilers—manufacturers of their own apparel, spinners, knitters, and weavers of sol diers’ clothing—because, in their mistaken pa triotism. they held the cause of the rebellion sacred! Though frequently called to mourn the loss of loved ones whom they had sent forth with words as heroic as those of 'he Spartan mother to her favorite son—‘Bring back your shield or return upon it’—still there was no flinching, no timidity, no shadow ot doubt as to ultimate success. Had their hopes, which gave color to their confidence, but proved prophetic, history would have embalmed their mimvs, and their deeds, in song and story, would bare held a chosen plaee„ But it was not thus to be. Th * attempt which they consecrated in their ‘heart of hearts’ as a glorious revolution proved only a gigantic rebellion, and in bilterness of spirit tnoy were obliged to acknowledge their defeat. - But, it may be asked, of what avail is it to recount these things at present! Much, we an swer. The undeniable facta enumerated show that Southern women are not the listless crea tures of fashion and tolly that fiction-mongers delight to paint them. They have a will, a soul, a character, whicu, if directed aright, is suffi cient to redeem the past and brighten all the future. With all their faults we have strong fi:tb io our SdUlbern women. Henceforth they ■will iznoro the petty ebidfaCter cf ‘pe tel play thing’ and assume the grander role of ‘helpmale anti compdniosi.’ A great work is before them. Let them do it as troe women snould.” Maximilian has issued a decree order ing I refugees frdm the United Blates, to migrate into the interior. A COCK-aND-A Bt LI, STORY. The following, says the New Yord Evening Pott, comes to us from the Associated Press Reporter ; it bears upon it all the marks of a genuine roorback, and an extremely fine spec imen at that. Who is “Judge Carter?”— What is the extent of “ the South” in which he has made “an extensive tour?” Did he go to Texas, or Mississippi, or A übain*, or where? And why, having made ibis “ exa tensive tour,” did he “return” to Raleigh? Is Raleigh now the centre of the universe, the headquarters of extensive tourists, the base of supplies for travellers —aud travel lers’ rates? And what is the Sou l hern Sun ? Where is it published ? By whom ? Where did “the Judge” get his copy ? Does he believe the very remarkable tale it tells? or does any one else io Raleigh believe it? Finally, as there are a certain number of credulous fools in every community, It is worth while to alarm them periodically with such old women’s tales? Or if Judge Carter and the Southern Sun tell the truth, would it not be well to substantiate by particulars such stories as this ? “ Raleigh, N. C., September I.—Judge Carter, who has returned from an extensivo trip through the South, states that tbe cruel ties to the freedmen, and the number of hom icides among them, by tbe whites, are in creasing to a fearful extent, especially in pla ces where tbe troops are being withdrawn. “Tbe Judge has a copy of tbe Southern Sun, which says that if the Yankees aro alarms ed at tbe killing of a few hundred negroes a day, in Slates wbere they bat e the protection of Yankee troops to acertaiu extent, what will be tbeir alarm after tbe departure of the mili tary forces, and the re-admission into tbe Union of these States as sovereign powers, who will then have a complete organization of the Mili.ta in each county, which will give the South a standing army that can bid defis ance to tbe world.” From tbe far east, from beyond the br mil ocean and the land, says the Louisville Democrat,an awful scourge bus bieu lor months making its way westward. A terror that mocks tbe diplomacy of statesmen, that palsies tbe intellect of the General, that lausrhs at tbe glittering of arms aud aim es. is m-k i g us re sistless way to our shores. Tbe Asiatic chol-ra bas reached Marseilles. In spile i f ail obst ruc tions, all sanitary precautions, it comes to wards us, an exhausted, broken people, tried by affliction and disaster, and helpless from a long and bloody war. Our Minister at Constantinople has written to us to warn us, but the warning can oniy teach us to mitigate, we fear, not avoid, tbe pesti lence. It was but thirty-six hours from L .n --don, and from London to our shores is but twelve days. All that can be done should be done promptly ; but the hope is that Pn vi donce will bend down her silver shield ot frost before it comes, against which the arms of pes tilence may strike in vain. “Arrab-na-Pogue,” it appears, is an endless play. A London paper, curiously enough, estimates that it is played simuliaue ously iu tbtee quarters of the globe —in Lon don, Manchester, New Yotk, San Francisco, and Melbourne, Australia, But tbe difference in time between tbe allies named bas this sin gular effect—“that “Arrah n>-Pegue” is played all the day long, for when tbe great tower scene is reached in Manchester and in London, Arrah’s cabin doo* is first opened be fore her friends io New Yoik, and when tbe New Yorkers rise from the enjoyment of tbeir play the San Franciscans sit doiyn to it. The destruction ot lite and limb on railroads has, of late, reached such a fearful magnitude that, notwithstanding the familiari ty of tbe country with death by violence, in every conc’eivab.e form that wickedness could devise, the people are really becoming alarm ed, and the subject is beginning to attract some attention. From January Ist to August 28th, 1865, we have an estimate of the accid»-n s on railroads, aud the number of persons killed and wounded, showing in tbe aggregate 128 acci dents ; number of persons killed, 266 ; num ber of wounded, 1.109. JsSr- But littleTSkion was paid to tbe in famous test oath of Missouri, as designed to mix politics with religion, by tbe ministers of St. Louis, last Sunday, the 3d inst. As a gen eral thing religious services were held as usual. Il will now be seen what course the rabid Rad ical Abolitionists ol that State will pursue. It is more than possible that Gratiot bastile will be filled with those members who dired to preach without fl st taking tbe oath.

The Cincinnati Commercial of yesterday has the following ridiculous s< ry : An amusing scone occurred at the Pi oc dx Hotel, in Levinglon, on Friday night, It,st. At alate hour allt.be guests of. the bouse were suddenly aroused bv lhe screams of a woman, winch seemed to come from a room in the third story ot the building In a lew miniiros the hulls Os the hotel were filled with worn'fl and men in their night-clothes, all b-nt on ascer taining the cause of the alarm. It turned out. tbit a young Indy had drearm-d that a man was in tier room hence tbe disturbance. When lhe matter was explained h> Colon I Grigsby, the landlord, the gueto* commenced a hasty retreat to tbeir rooms, and in the confusion which en sued many v-ry ludicrous scenes oc< wred. A young married lady becoming separated Irom her husband and being a total stranger in tbe bouse, ran pell m-H into the room of Capt. G., of tbe United states rny. She did not discover her mistake until the ga l-nt Captain, who bad preceded her but a moment, cried out, “Keep off. keep.” when another screaming almost equaling tbe first took place. Several persons, wnose rooms were on the Hist fl >or, went <iown one flight ot steps too many, and landed in the office, where by this time quite a number bad assembled. A well-known physician Irom Lou sville got so bewilderen in searching for his room that he finally squatted down in lhe hall and called out at the too of his voice for a porter to come aud show him the way. Con ductor Taylor, of the Kentucky Central Rail road, mail agent Morrow, and a well known Quartermaster, who does not live a thousand miles from this city, figured conspicuon ly in the scene, but we me under a solemn promise to I rfiem not to panicuUrizc their exploits on the I occasion. OOHFISCA IBD L ANDS—Si KW OKDIIR FROM UKNKICAI* HOWARD. The following order establishes new regu lations for the settlement of confiscateAlands in the Southern States : “War Dkpaht’t, Bureau or Rkfusres, 4 Freedmen and Abandoned Lands, V Washington, D. C., Sept. 4, 1865. J “Circular No. 13, of July 28, 1865, bom this bureau, is hereby rescinded, and tbe fol lowing rules and regulations are adopted for the purpose of establishing a defiinite and uniform policy relative to abandoned 1 reds, or real property and lands, or real property to which the United States shall have acquir ed title by confiscation or sale, or otherwise, which now or may hereaftqr come under tbe control of this bureau, by virtue of the act of Congress approved March 3, 1865, establishing and by orders of the President, to-wit: Gen eral Orders No. 110, War Department, June 7, 1865. Abandoned lands referred to in the law and regulations governing this bureau are defined according to section two of an act of Congress, approved July 2, 1864, as follows, viz : Property, real or personal, shall be regarded as abandoned when the lawful owner thereof shall be voluntarily absent therefrom and engaged either in arms or oth erwise in aiding or encouraging the rebellion. “ Second—Property will not be regarded as confiscated until after the decree of the United States Court for the district in which the property may be found has been made, by which the property is condemned as enemy's property, and becomes the property of the United States. “ Third—All tbe abandoned land or real property, and all land or real property to which the United States shall have acquired title by confiscation or sale or otherwise, that uow is or may hereafter come under control of the Bureau of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned Lands by virtue of said act and order of the President, is aad shall be set apart for use of loyal refugees an J freedmen, and so much as may be necessary assigned to tb.-m ns provided in section fourth of an act establishing the bureau, viz: ‘To every male citizen, whether refugee or freedmen, as aforesaid, '.here shall be assign 'd not more than forty acres of such land, and the person to whom it is assigned shall be protected in the use and enjoyment of the land for the term of three years, at an annual rent not ex ceeding six per centum upon the value of said land a', it was appraised by the State au thorities in the year 1860, for the purpose of taxation, and in case no such appraisal can be found, then the rental shall be based upon tbe estimated value of the laud in said year, to be ascertained in such manner as tbe Com missioners may by regulation prosecute. At the end of said term, the occupants of any parcels so assigned may purchase tbe land and receive such title thereto as the United 8 alas can convey, upon paying therefor the value ot tbe land as ascertained and fixed for ihe purpose of determining ths annual rent aforesaid.’ •■Fourth All lands or other real property within the several States, viz : Virginia. North Carolina, south Carolina. Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennesse, Kentucky, Missouri, Maryland, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas, to which tbe United 8t tes bas acquired or shall acquire title by confiscation or sale, or oiber abandoned real property in those states, provided said pioperty, whether confiscated or abundon-d, remaining unsold or otherwise dis posed ot shall have been properly trans ferred to the bureau upon requisition of the Commissioner or Assistant Commissioner shall be considered as under tbe control ot tbe Com missioner ot Refugees, Freedmen and Aban don Lauds, for tbe purpose hereinbefore set forth and for tbe time authorized by tbe act establishing the bureau ; and no part or par cel ot said confiscated or abandoned property shall be surrendered or restored to the former owners or other claimants, except such surren der or restoration be authorized by said Com missioner. “Fifth Assistant Commissioners will as rap idly as possible cause accurate descriptions ot all confiscated and abandoned lauds anil other confiscated and abandoned real property that is uow or m-y hereafter com- under their con trol, to be made, and besides ke ping a record of such themselves, will forward monthly to the Commissioner of the Bureau copies of such descriptions in the manner prescribed by cir cular No. 10, of July 11, 1865, from this bu reau. They will, with as linle delav as possi - ble, select and set apart such confiscated and abandoned lands and property as may be deemed necessary tor the immediate use of ref ugees and freedmen, the specific division of which into lots and the rental or sale therof, according to tbe law establishing tbe bureau, will be completed as soon as practicable and reported to the Commissioner. In tbe selec iton aud setting apart of such lands and prop erty care will be used to take that about which • here is tbe least donbt that this bureau should have custody and control of. “Sixth -Whenever any land, or other real property that shall come into the possession of his bureau as ‘abandoned,’ does not fall under the definition of ’abandoned,’ as set forth in ection two of the act of Congress approved T uly 2, 1864, hereinbefore mentioned, it will be 'ormally surrendered by the Assistant Commis nitier of tbe bureau for the State within which ' ach real estate is si'uated, upon its appearing ■nat tbe claimant did not abandon the property tn the sense defined in said section and act. “Seventh—Former own-rs of property held by this bureau as abandoned, who claim is restoration on the ground of having received lhe pardon of tbe President, will, as tar as practicable, forward tbeir applications to tbe Commissioner of the Bureau,through tbe super 'll tendeuts and assistant commissioners of the districts and states in which the property is •itnated. Each application must be accompa nied by : Ist. A copy of special pardon of the I’iesident of the United States, or of the oath under his amnesty proclamation when they are not embraced in any of the exceptions therein ■numerated. 2d. Proof of title. 3d. Evidence that tbe property bas not been co fl-cited o libelled in any United States court, or, if u helled, that proceedings against it have been discontinued. Officers of the bureau though whose hands such applications may pass will endorse thereon such facts us may assist, tbe Commis ioner in his decision, stating especial ly the use to which the property is put by the bureau. O. O.

The correspondent of tbe New York Express Says: "1 l ave just learned a very important recent declaration made by the President to the Ala bama Delegation, who complained to h m of the blighted effect ot the proceedings in confisca ion in that State, and be replied to them that <1 confiscation could take place or have a legal fleet, except alter n legal conviction of tbe ■arties tor treason. Y"U will at once realize he effect of such a decision, for it will upset nd render null and void every act of confi-ca ,’on that has been enforced at the South, as I do ■ iot believe in any one case have parlies been ■ reviously tried and convicted ot treason. "I have this information from a Irie.nd, who i ays he was told it by one of the delegrl.ion to whom it was made, all ol whom are highly gea ifled by it. It. is certainly the only proper and ■gal course ; for, by what rule, precedent., or iw, can we punish a man as a traitor, without >ving praved him to be such. It. is like hang up a man for an alleged murder and then tying him. I also understand that Chief Jus ice Chase has expressed the same opinion.” ®egr“ A Washington special says the num ber of troops on the pay and muster rolls of the United Slates Army at the present time is as follows: Regulars, 13,000’ white volun teers, 100,000; colored troops, 90,000. The □ umber of men in the field is estimated it 105,000. The Rev. C. B.
