THURSDAY EVENING, MARCH 23, I860!
Latkst from Pensacola. — A private dis
patch, published in the Enquirer of this morn
ing, dated Montgomery the 22d t says that
Colonel Annistead reports that the enemv Is
advancing m three columns from Pensacola,
Milton arid O'iiocUivvhatchie, to concentrate at
Greenville.
• • ... -
A gentleman just from Richmond, and a
member of Congress, informs the Macon Tel
egraph that the Commander-in Chief has or
dered Kirby Smith to move with his whole
army into Missouri.
From Pknsacola.—The Mobile Tribune has
information from Pensacola, as late as the llth
inst., giving nows of some movements of the ene
my, derived from a reliable witness. At the date
named, it was believed the whole toree was be-,
tween fifteen and twenty thousand. Os these some
five thousand, including infantry, artillery and
cavalry, had marched from Warriugton around a
bayou to Ooklield, not quite half way to Gonzalez.
In their train they were seventy-nine wagons.—
These were accurately counted. Gen. Steele, with
his command, bad left Warrington by the bay for
Pensacola, but whether he had moved further than
that town was not known.
The fact that the enemy had been several weeks
buildiDg numerous pontoons is significant, and tho
supposition at Mobile wa3 that th#y proposed to
proceed to tho Alabama river somewhero near
Claiborne. This, however, was conjecture.
People at Mobile are not so badly- fright
ened as to provent them from, d.sposing of
their Confederate money cheaply. In fact, it
is about the only article that ia cheap, in the
financial and commercial circles of the Gulf
City. The Tribune reports the following
prices obtained atauauctiou, on the 17th inst :
One Ayreshiie cow, $2,100; onehiefer, Ayre
shire, $2,600; one Ayre3hire cow and calf
sold at private salo for' $3,500 ; boy Tom, 16
years old, $4.000; boy Jim, 14 years old,
$4,300.
A late Nashville dispatch saya : New ware
houses have boon for some time building at
Chattanooga, and when General Thomas’
headquarters moved to Nashville some days
ago, supplies were rapidly accumulating.—
These store houses if placed end to end, would
stretch above two mil«3.
Governor Murphy, of Arkansas, has issued
an abolition proclamation for an extraordinary
session of the Legislature at Little Rock, on
the first Monday of April, to lake into consid
eration the proposed amendment to the Con
stitution abolishing slavery.
Row is Moiule. — A serious row occurred
in Mobile on tbe night ot the*lltb, as weiearn
from the Advertiser, in which a soldier named
W. L. Waite?, belonging to Douglas' Texas
battery, while drunk was touud with a knife
which he was using in such a manner as to
justify his being arrested and carried to the
office of the commandant of the post. Here
he iras orderSd to tho camp of correction.—
Upon hearing the order he became furious
and attempted <0 out some persons a the offi
ce. Isaac Hurt, tho office sergeant, while at
tempting to get out of his uay was overhauled
by Waites and fatally stabbed. Hart lingered
unfil about 1 o’clock on the 13th, and died,
Waites, immediately upou inflicting the
blow, attempted to. make his escape, brand
ishing his kuife. Tho sentinel on duty was
ordered to fire. He obeyed his orders and the
ball took effect ia the head of Waites, earn ing
instant death.
Tub Situation'. —We have the highest author
ity for saying that within the past few days the
general situation in this department has materially
improved, so far as the prospects of the Southern
armies arts concerned. By a return of absentees
to the ranks.- the forces of both Gens. Forrest and
Maury have been greatly strengthened; and if the
spirit that evidently prevails in tbe country, espe
cially in Mississippi and Weat Tennessee, continues
to act a short time longer, both these commanders
will be at the head of armies equal to any emer
gency the enemy can probably force upon them.
Now is the time for the people to work, so as to
jnost effectually aid thorn. There is much yet to
do, but there are many to do it.
Os the strength of Gen. Forrest’s command, our
readers, as well as the enemy, must conjecture. It
has great!} increased of late, and we learn is abun
dantly sup; lied in every particular, llis wagon
train is reported the iinest ever organized in this
department. The whole command is ready at a
moment's notice to take the field at whatever point
the enemy may attempt his great spring raid.
The tame authority also gives us great encour
agement as to the condition of affairs at Mobile.
The city has been provisioned to supply the large
force now concentrated for its defense at least six
months. In addition it is estimated that there are
at least three months' supplies in the hands of
speculators. These will of coarse be seized should
the city be regularly invested, and used for the
benefit of the soldiery and such of the citizens as
may be compelled to remain. Every effort is
making to remove as many of the latter from the
oity as possible, to clear the decks for action, and
it is hoped and expected but sow who are unable
to perform duty will remain.
The general in command of the department dei
servos tho thanks of the country, an.
»f thiJ at-rtion so seriously threatened, for the
untiling energy displayed in preparing for the
campaign about to open. That the best disposi
tion possible under the circumstances has been
made of the means that cauld be controlled, we
do not doubt.
The last thirty days has witnessed a zealous care
and watchfulness, personally siren to every corner
•f the department by Gen. Taylor, aim we
confident the same untiring energy may be expect ,
ed hereafter. He has an important and difficult j
work to perform, but with the help ol Heaven, .
and through the strong arms of our soldiery and
willing hearts of the people, he will again sue j
ceed, as he has always done in previous campaigns, j

i No Cotton to Capture.— The Montgomery
I Appeal, of Tuesday evening last, says:
Me are gratified at being able to state po3i
; tively that, under no circumstances, will the
enemy be permitted to secure the much eovet
j ed prize of tue cotton stored in this city—that
j n has been determined by the authorities to
give it to tie flames at any moment when the
1 aafet y o) Montgomery becomes problematical,
j An investigation has already disclosed the
.act that ihe city will be in no wise endanger
ed by the sU ps that will be taken to destroy
the greater portion of the article now ware
housed, and arrangements will soon be made
to place the balance in a safe position also.
Thf authoriti* s have determined to fulfill the
iaw of Congress to the letter. It is very cer
tain that, our enemies, thbse who nave become
domesticated as well as those who are seeßng
to import themselves, lire doomed *to disap

ton communicated the fallowing to the Con
stiiutiona.:!st, * t tbfj I7th*
Dr. A. G. Mackay, tue famous Masonic au
thor. has been appointed by the Yankees in
spector of the streets.
ihe Courier, of the llth, has reports from
Columbia, that the city was fired from burn
ing cotton which Gen. Hampton had destroy
ed, and that the Confederates left the people
destitute of provisions. The imported editors
are learning to lie quite glibly. They report
various rumors from Sherman, also that Grant
had forced Lee to abandon Richmond. The
last New York papers 3ay that Grant is onlv
awaiting dry weather.
rhe Courier has another sensation story,
headed “Augusta Threatened,” and says that
our quiet people are quaking in their shoes,
fearful of meeting the just and deserved doom
that befell Columbia. They state that this
city is only guarded by three swall cavalry
brigades, who may be captured at any day—
that flour is selling at $2,000 per barrel, board
SSO per day, aud everything exorbitantly high.
Admiral Dahlgren has received a report by
special messenger announcing the evacuation
ot Riohmond. Dfsertprs also state the same
story, with the addition in«t tu« ui
tobacco in Petersburg had been ordered to re
move their tobacco within four days, and that
the theatre in that city, filled "ith Government
stores, had been burned.
The Yankees posted at Charleston are daily
seiwling out foraging parlies, devastating the
large plantations along the Santee river. The

tisement taken from a late number of the New

gentleman from the trans-Missisaippi, who is I
a reliable and trustworthy gentleman, belong- j
ing to the Virginia army. He reports the
country west of Red River in a good aud easy
condition, aud that the most of the cities and
towns west of that river were generally well
filled with dry goods of almost every variety,
which had been obtained through Texas and
Mexico. He states that there is a general line
of trade'existing in the country west of Red
River and Mexico. He also states that there j
is but very little advance upon the prices of I
goods previous to the war.— Mimssippiun. i
Mi:. Brooks, op New York, on the Monroe
Doctrine. —ln a debate on the report concerning
tbe "peace conference," sent in by Lincoln to the
Yankee House, Mr. Brooks, of New York, used
the following language
He (Mr. Brooks) was in favor of an armistice.
Some day or other this war must end, and prior to
chat thora must be an armistice. 11a regretted that
the President had not avaiied himself of the op
portunity recently offered ta grant, au armistice,
believing that if this thing had taken n ~
would have fnlln««'»J. t
Thera were things now in progress on this con
tinent which imperiously require an armistice or
a friendly accommodation between ta > North and
tbe South, so that we can resist, by combined ope
rations, the European encroachments in North
America; and in this connection ho referred to the
fact that Sinaloa, Sonora, Chihuahua, Durango,
and lower California are occupied by the French,
under the pretence of having received these por
tions of Mexico for a debt originally only one
hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars. *This
subject, considering the geographical, political aud
material interests iuvolved, was certainly of lnoro
importance to the House than the abstract ques
tion of slavery.
This administration had done nothing and could
do nothing in the way of resistance to the foreign
encroachment. If the Memorial Diplomatique—
the highest authority in European circles—is right
Secretary Seward has given a quasi support to the
overthrow of the Mexican republic by Maximilian,
supported by Louis Napoleon; and it was stated in
that paper in .September or October last, that our
domestic agitations—meaning the elections—pre
vented the recognition of the new dynasty set up
in Mexico. Hence our Minister —Mr. Corwin
obtained leave to come home, in order to avoid
having any representative of our country near the
liberal or Jaurez government. Mr. Brooks argued
to show the importance of peace between the North
and the South, in order that they both may prac
tically unite in the maintenance of the Monroe
doctrine.
From North Georgia. —From ? gentleman
from upper Georgia, the Montgomery Mail, of
the loth, gathers the annexed news :
The enemy's force at Dalton numbers about
six hundred, mostly negroes. A large num
ber of small garrisons are scattered between
Chattanooga aud Dalton.
One report states that the forces at Dai ton
1 are on short rations —another states that, they

Deserters,
:
I Lie press au teen earnestly entreated 07
■ tho Governor ot Mississippi to. oa!' attention
.to tbe fact tpat >e amnesty offered ■; > deser
: ter 3 expires on the 3d of April. We are afraid
| the papers will h irdiy reach the deserters by
! that tiuio: indeed, they are a class who, we
| suspect, seldom read the papers. Other
1 means—ail means must be employed to ex
‘ tend the required information to them. The
. following remarks of Mr.C.K. Marshal, in his
! speech before the Mississippi Legislature, are
1 very much to the point.
How. then, arc we to restore deserters to’
; their colors ? Au deserters are not criminal.
, Theirown consciences do not always condemn
| them. They cannot, in all instances, subor
j dinate their own personal necessities to con
i siderations of common good. The criminal
■ ity of desertion must, to some extent, what
ever the wise exactions of the military law.
be measured by the intelligence ot the culprit.
!,Itis as sad to think, as hard to believe, that
: have deserted the standard of
i the South Some of them think they have
i been harshly dealt with- Poor men. among
| them have gone to provide ior their wives and'
j children. Helpless families have been neg~
I by more fortunate neighbors. I have
j heard ot a poor soldier, caugut ,* t »r (
i who, while absent from his command, made
j his wife and children keep watch around his
) little field whil« he ploughed and planted it.
i He said to ht3 neighbors, who knew and re
' speeted him, that he would return to ihe ar
! my as soon as he had placed his wife and
| children beyond the reach of gaunt tamine.
! There are many cases like this almost pardon
j able. Who has it in hia heart to pronounce
sentence of death, whatever a just apprehen
j sion of dire public necessity may require, in a
j case like this? Still it becomes this Legisia
j ture to employ every agency to gather descr
! ters everywhere. The militia should beef
-1 fectiveiy organized, and on the wisdom of
: legislation alone depends the efficiency of the
j militia. But all citizens should exert them-
I selves to restore deserters to their commends.
; Personal influence can accomplish much.—
| The women of the country caa achieve'a
. great good by the use of that heaven-doscen
j ded influence which enables them to rule the
tide of human he'ar?s as the moon does the
r ecu.
Aii men cannot be dragooned to duty. The
stubbornness of their nature is aroused. God
wins, but does not force men to do their duty.
The orators and preachers of the cohutry
should make this their mission. Tbe ministry
should he waked up They have.many im
portant duties devolved upon them by the ex
igencies of the hour They should preach as
they never preached before. They should ac
quire habits of revolutionary thinking and
revolutionary preaching. They should no
longer be the -dumb dogs that nevei hark,”
of which Isaiah tells U3. Gen. Lee’s order,
addressed to deserters, should he their text for
the ensuing spring and summer months.- The
humdrum preaching of the past forty years is
now unavailing. Lee’a proclamation of am
nesty is not made known, as it would be ; if a
newspaper appeared in every village. The
time for pardon will have expired, before de
serters hear of it. Songs, speeches, barbe
cues, should invite soldiers to return to duty.
Without the employment of all these agencies,
many a soldier who would become immortal
in history must live and die in disgrace.
Barksdale, Urr. Phelan, and all the members
of this Legislature’should devote themselre3
to the task of persuading men to return to
duty. Let us in this, as we may in all paral
lel instances, learn wisdom from God’s deal
ings with us. He would first persuade; if we
fail in compliance, fearful is the punishment.
After a proclamation of pardon remains unac
cepted for two or three months, deserters
should be disfranchized, they and their children ,
forever. I would commend tt> your wisdom
the consideration of such an enactment. Let
all measures of kindness h* and
lljul masi.ate me vigor *!td p wer of Die go
vernment.
The Grenada Motive gives us the particulars- of
an act of justice consummated by the court of
Judge Lynch, in Sunflower county, Mississippi,
very recently. Mr. J. W. Gaitcher, a respectable
planter of that county, being suspected by one
Hart, who was staying about there, of having in
his possession a qantity of gold, an arrangement
was made by Hart with a negro man to force the
secret from Guitcher; and he wa3 accordingly en
ticed into the field by the negro, when a demand
was made by the negro that he should tell where
the gold was. Gaitcher told where the gold was,
and the negro then struck and killed him, chop
ping his head off with an axe. Hart took the
money and left the county. The negro was ar
rested by the citizens and hung. Hart was caught
near the Mississippi river, brought back and hung.
Servfed them right.

1. In obedience to the above order, Maj. E. D

to take command of the Rendezvous at Montgome
ry, Alabama, to which place ail officers who have
already been sent to collect absentees belonging to
the three corps in Tennessee, Mississippi and Ala

the number to depend upon the facility of transpor

and the practicability of subsisting them at the point
of assembly.
2, Camps of Rendezvous will be established as
early as-practicable at the following points, viz :

may warn them of the danger of them

which homes are to be defended.
