'HieEvrmxo Dispatch will liesuiqivrul
pti at ter this date. Nothin!; but imper
ative noceKsi’y could have induced such
n result. The protracted stagnation in
business, whit h lias-continued foi the
last year, and is likely to continue until |
|ieace is restored, deprives the press of
the usual means of support, and renders
it Impossible to conduct tlie business
without more outside means or credit,
than is within my reach. I liavealn ady
sacrificial too much in the hope that the \
struggle for liberty and independence j
might pass without war. In this 1 have 1
Isaoi deceived, and the suspension of j
the p per is a necessity. If those in- j
dcMed will make immediate payment I i
shall he aide to resume its publication i
,-it an early day.
In any event I shall end avor to make
such arrangements as to secure those j
who have paid in advance for the paper
against loss.
The establishment of the Dispatch |
Inis is’cii a lalior of love, its suspen- :
sion is the saddest necessity of my life, '•
and miles-speedily resumed will rentier
frnitlcsH the labor of years. I tlieie
fort! appeal to those indebted, to make
prompt payment, that I may fulfil like
obligations to my creditors, and resume
ils publication at the earliest day prac

The railroads are a most important in.

five a eorrespondent of the Charles
ton Courier , writing from Atlanta, under
date of tin* !»d inst., says :
1 have been taking a bird’s-eye view |
of this flourishing railroad city. Four
of the principal railroads of the State |
terminate here, and render'this a great
depot for the rich products of the stir- I
rounding States. Luge stores and
warehouses have been erected here, and j
many elegant private residences arc to !
he seen scattered on the surrounding i
hills. The city is located in the heal
thiest portion of Georgia. 1 see no
reason why Atlanta should not become I
uue of the great commercial cities of
the South, or even the Capital of the
t'onfederate States. In the beginning
«>i my mercantile career I was uttered a
large portion of the t »wn for a debt of
eight hundred dollars. I, however,
preferred compromising the claim for
four hundred dollars in cash, as l did
not can* to give eight bundled dollars
for a blacksmith shop and a few hun
dred acres *f poor land. The property
is n >w worth several millions of dollars,
and is improving every year in value.
At that time it was Inhabited l*v an old
man and Ids wife and thirteen children.
It now contains a population of sjme

A Beautiful Present.
The members of the Oglethorpe In- ,
fantry, previous to their departure to
Pensacola, ordered a sword for the pur- ,
pose of presenting to tlieir Captain. J. ; t
0. Clark K, but left before it reached ! (
here. To-day, at the City Hall, it was , |
presented to Lieutenant-Colonel Clabkk, ;
in helialf of tilt: Oglethorpe* by Lieut. : i
.f. V. HB.NHY Ai-i-bs, in a speech of re- |
markable beauty and force, which being
an impromptu one, we regret we could :
j not obtain a copy of. Lieutenant
] Colonel CI.AUKIi responded in the fol- j
| low ng elegant, terse and true soldierly j
i style :
Rut : l’leased and surprised at this
unexpected mark ot approval and alit-c
--linii on the part of those whom I have
had the honor to command, I am. only
prepared 10 say that such a gift from
j such a company, makes my heart swell
with emotion ot gratitude, and in the
hour of battle its recollection will give
me inspiration, like the smilesof beauty
j which hives the hero into the hottest
I ot tiie light.
I take it, and swear it shall never be
| dishonored.
At its conclusion three hearty cheers
were given with a vim by the crowd for
him, and three for the Oglethorpes.
livery one knows that Lieutenant-Colo
nel CI,A II kk is distinguished for his cour
age, devotion and modesty, and that
| this flattering testimonial from his for
| mer comrades was most worthily be- :
stowed.
The sword is an elegant one, double
gilt, gold mounted, the handle formed
into a lion’s head, and the hilt orna- j
meiited with the Coat of Anns of this
State. It has accompanying it two
j scabbards, one for dress anil one fur ser
vice. The ornamentiugs are neat and
beautiful. It was designed, we learn,
by J. I!. I’latt, of this city, and reflects
much credit upon his judgment and
taste.

1 Having had some fifteen months ex
perience in the Mexican war, 1 consider 1
myself somewhat of a judge of the du
ties of officers to their privates, and now
being a member of the Clinch ltitlcs, in ;
thesth regiment, of the Confederate ar- |
! my, some five weeks quartered at Camp |
; Stephens, near Pensacola, and having
I kept aclo e watch of the commands of
our officers, 1 think they are the no
' blest set of otliccrstlmt I have ever seen
|or heard of. Their orders, when given,
j are kind and gentlemanly, hut to the
! point; and as for Captain (J. A. Piatt, 1
! Ids energies are unceasing, and a more
noble-hearted Captain never took the |
! battle field, lie is not only a noble
hearted Captain, hut an excellent drill
officer, and I do not believe there is a
single man in the company who would
not lost, his last drop of blood in his i
defence. In fact, our officers and pri
vates are hard to heat, for they seem
more like brothers than fellow soldiers. !
As regards the officers of the sth regi
ment, throughout, I never saw a more
perfect set of gentlemen, including pri
vates, for tlufir seems to be nothing but
peace and harmony throughout the j
whole camp. Very respectfully,

llumora of the t'alrlnv Fight.
A passenger on the Central train, who j
Iclt Manassas Junction yesterday morn
ing, reports the Southern foreen at that
place to he in high spirits, and patient
ly awaiting tiie attack soon to lie made ,
on 11 it-nr by the id tit M t Hessians of Lin
coln's army. He says that an old gen- \
Helmut counted tint U. S. t.'avalrv as
they inarched ou Fairfax Court House,
' Saturday morning, and that they num
bered eighty-live, tin their return
there were hut fifty-eight in the partv,
ami five stragglers passed afterwards,
allowing that twenty-two had been j
either killed or taken prisoners. Seven
dead bodies had ht-eu seen, and one of j
the wretched hirelings had crawled into I
the Confederate camp, badly wounded. I
The same gentleman reports that on !
Saturday last the railroad bridge at
.Martiuslmrg was tired and burned by
the Southern troops, as a matter of pro- :
caution against a rear attack.
Yesterday afternoon it was reported :
on the streets tluv. another skirmish had ;
taken pace at Fairfax Court House; i
but as we could trace the rumor to no '
reliable source, and the passengers on
the cars had heard nothing of it, we
arc quite sure the rumor is unfounded.

1 have a suggestion to oiler our Gov
ernment, which, if acted upon, may re
sult in good. It is this : That the au
thorities of the South offer to the French
and English Government a'nonus on the
crops of cotton for tiie next five, eight
or ten years; that is. that thev proj>ose 1
to supply England and France with the ,
entire cotton crops for out* of the periods :
j of time above stated, at a bare living j
price b» the producers, so as to give tiie !
manufaeturers jus wide a margin for
profit jus possible. If some sueli |*ro|H»- !
sit-ion as this is made to England and
France, or cither of them, in ray opin j
ion, the blockade of our ports woidd
soon be mised. Others npiv have
thought of this matter ; but if so. 1 I
have not heard anything of it. 1 mere- j

i and more intelligible shape.

j'uueK 1861. j"
At a meeting.of ttie Clinch Rides,
company A. held at their camp this
day, tiie following preamble and reso
lutions were unanimously passed:
The Clinch Rifles are called upon to
mom n the loss ot one of their comrades
For four years death has not taken
from nor i.mks a single member, but
now, just in the commencement of our
lirst campaign, the hand of the Destroy
ing Allgel lias been laid upou o e of ;
our brothers, and suddenly and myste
riously taken linn from us. By one of
the inscrutable decrees of Providence,
Hugh H. Piarkyn lias been called loan
other world, and though sorrow ng. we
would humbly bow to the will of "Him
who doeth ail things well ” Toe cause
of the death of our brother, unit the
short warning given him to prepare to
enter the “Valley of t e Shadow of
Death,” but serve to make our sorrow
greater and the glooin in the camp
deeper. It is proper that we should
publicly express our feelings in this our
bereavement; therefore
llnoloed. That in the death of mir
brother, Hugh 11. Parkvri, the Clinch
Rifles have met a great loss the) will
ever eheiish his memory, and rtieeni
lier liis virtues. Brave, irank and gen
erous, lie was a good soldier and a fast
friend.
Resolved, That a Malik page in our
minute hook he dedicated to his memo
ry. and that the Home Guai.Lu) the
Clinch Rifles in Augusta, be rtjf ; fisted
| to pay the usual respect to the memory
of our departed friend.
Resolved, That his bereaved and heart
brolceu widow, in this, her hour of af
fliction and despair, has our heartfelt
sMiipalhy. May the God ot the widow
and ti e fitiierless watch over and pro- j
tect tier end her orphaned hoy.
Resolved, That the Secretary send a i

of the deceased, and also have them

The Yankee Programme of till ssion
uld Scott has laid out a va t deal of
work for his employers; His plan, as
wo gather it from Northern papers, eon
| templates some such operations as these:
; “Butler to take Norfolk and threaten,
l or take, Richmond, if he can get here
before McDowell, advancing from Alex
andria byway of Uordousvillc. Anoth
er division of the army to advance on
)\ ioeliester, which, in concert witli an
I army from tho Relay House and one
from Pensylvania and ainuher from
I Ohio, shall surround, cut off supplies,
I and force Harper’s Ferry to surrender.
; At Hie same time, another army from
I Ohio, under Gen. McClellan, will cross
| at Parkersburg or lower down, proceed
byway of Kanawha, across the country
I to Abingdon, and thence to Fast Ten
i nessee, to the assistance of Andy John
| son and his hatch of traitors. At the
same time, another great army will
I start from Cairo, or some ottier point
j on the Western Rivers, and take-up the
j line of inareli, either by land or water,
1 or both, for the subjugation of Tenues
i see and the South-West. Detachments
j to he left, in passing, in eaeii State, to
i ensure quiet—and all the great armies
to rendezvous at New I irleans.
This is war ell a grand scale. The
i world lias seen nothing like it since the
j Great King led his Barbaric hosts to the
| invasion and extermination of poor little
i Greece. We forget how many of the
Barbarians ret.-.rned home ; we only
| recollect that the Grecian General claim
| ed great credit, and in after years, hud
! his claim for contriving the
| means for the great King himself to
escape. The Persian plan appears to
I have been superior, in conception, to the
i Yankee in this ; that it was concentrated
i and encountered, hut one Tliermopylce.
while this is diffuse and admits or half
i a dozen Tliermopyluis; and the Gods
vouchsafe a leonidas or a Jackson for

The Confederate States possess within
their limits nil the material for a most
magnificent navy, and our people have
the will to build it. Much of our future
greatness lies in that direction. lathe
meantime, our mercantile marine is ar
ming rapidly. From every nook, and
