MONDAY EVENING, MARCH '47, 1865.
Co-OrituA'fioN.—The intelligence brought
from below this morning, say* the Montcom
ery Appeal ol the 25th, leaves us no longer ia
doubt as to the movements of the enemy,
though wo do not think there is nay great or
immediate cause of alarm on the part of our
citizens. Wo are in possession • '’intelligence
respecting military movements below here
which will probably check the foe in his pro
gress and which will effectually prevent him
from taking possession of this oi.y, provided
the military authorities shall meet with the
prompt co-operation of our citizens.
Gov. Watts will arm every .o who is wiK
mg to step forward and mm t. c fortification*
in detense ol his property and home, There
are albo hundreds of refugees from other States
who go into the tionches with them, but
who v* be loth tv stej forward while those
most vitally interested stand trembling in the
back ground. If the citizens will but do their
duty, Gen. Forrest will attend to the enemy
outside, and dec that he never takes possession
of cither Montgomery or Selma
Raid in Sumter.— We are informed, says
the Sumter Republican, 25th, that on Monday
last a. party of women, living near this place,
aided by a paroled soldier, attacked the cribs
of some of tbeir neighbors, and, after a con
"id(rr.ibi« engagement withdrew, bringing off
the sjKjils. These women are soldiers’ wive*
and represent themselves as being without
the necessary articles of life, and are compelled
to get food for their ohildren and themselves,
in this way, or starve. The was
composed of bat few, and we suppose did not
carry off but little.

The Richmond Sentinel of the 7th says ttie
exchange of prisoners has been going on rap
idly during the past few days. Up to Wed
nesday la3t, some eight thousand Yankee
prisoners passed through Goldsboro’ en route
for Wilmington.
There are daily arrivals in Richmond of
Confederate prisoners by way of the James.
A-large number arrived Sunday night, aud
there was another arrival last evening.
Ike Deinopoiis llerald endorses the nomination
oftho uamo of Hon. John Forsyth as a candidate
for governor of Alabama.

Tile Local Situation.
The city is filled with a thousand rumors
this morning, concerning the movements of
the enemy from below, and the sudden and
unlooked for orders from the governor of the
Sinto and the commandant of the post, have
caused considerable excitement, and have no
doubt contributed greatly to exaggerate the
real facts as to the movemeuts of the foe. ft
is extremely difficult to get at the truth, in the
midst of so many reports, but after investiga
tion, we believe the facts, as far rs known to
the authorities (his morning, warrant us in
saying that the enemy has moved out sdtae
distance into Southwestern Alabama, and par
tially developed bis purposes.
The dispatch from Mobile informs us that
the enemy was moving from Pensacola toward
Pollard, on Thursday, and that his advance
wae being opposed by our forces under Gen.
Cla don. The force of the enemy, if known,
is not stated.
From the line of railroad between this city
we have more exciting intelligence. A col
umn of cavalry reached the road Oetwoen
Evoigreen and ' Uravella, early yesterday
morning, where a train was captured aud
burned on the track. During the forenoon
the passenger train which left this city Thurs
day evening, which had remained at Greens
ville overnight, aa usual, was tired into near
the destroyed train, while in motion. The
engineer at once endeavored to iuo through,
but his effort was frustrated and the train
stopped by the wreck on tho ro.nl. Some per
sons on the train were injured, but we have
been quable to obtain any names Conductor
Wynn endeavored to escape, but was shot
down. Tho express messengor was captured.
After robbing the passengers, the roll»t? stock
was destroyed, aud tho toice left tho scene,
announcing tbeir destination to be Greenville,
distant about forty miles on ‘he route .J this
city.
The belt judges estimated this force at from til
teen to eighteen huudrod. A email artillery force
accompanied the expedition.
Mr. Wynu was left by the Yauttees in what they
supposed a dying condition. He was subsequently
brought to Greenville on a hand oar, by one ot the
overseers of the road, aud has reached this city or
the passenger train that left bore yesterday after>
noon, ami which returned last > ight. We under
stand his wound is not considered a mortal ono.
With the knowledge we have, we think the col
umn on the railroad is only a raiding party, pur
posing only to cut the railroad communication
between this city and Mobile, in order to prevent
reinforcements being sent to General Clauton or
Mobile. It is probably the force reported as being
at Andalusia, Covington county, on Wednesday,
and they will not probably undertake to advauce
on Montgomery or Selma, at present, unless they
are much stronger than reported. We do not mi
agine, therefore, that there need be any occasion
for great alarm, at present, although it will be wise
to £ore completely organize our streugth to de
fend the city, and we are glad to observe that the
authorities have at last become aroused to the
danger vrich threaten. There has been inexcusa
ble delay for some time, but we hope energy will
now make up for previous tardiness oi action.—
Appeal, 25 thi
[From the London Shipping Gazette, Feb. I-'-]
Union Soldiers erom Switzerland.—Fed
eral recruiting agents have been busy m Switz
erland. That disgraceful system of crimp
ing,” which has been so extensively practiced
on the Queen’s subjects in Great Britain and
Ireland, is carried on in much the same man
ner among the Swiss. “Emigration agents
hold out to men of tbfT poorer classes brilliant
promises of work and pay. aQ d the uu 01
nate dupes emigrate, not to work, but to be
come “food for powder.” Many ot them also,
not less deluded by the light in which the
American contest is represented to them, go
out for the purpose of taking pari in the glo
rious’ war for ‘liberty.’

Himes.
Thu Yanekb3 at Camds*.—We learn, savs
the bouth Carolinian, tnat the enemy, while*
m Camden, burned ait the buildings from
Rain's Drug Store to the Branch B mk, and
on the o 1 her side of the Main street from
Druker’a corner to the new brick hotel. They
aNo destroyed Zemp’s Mill, the Cornwallis
House, the a tor*- of Mr. Geo. Dougiaes, and !
'.he house of Mrs. Long; but generally treated j
the* inh ibiuots with civility. As in" Col urn- I
bra, the Yankees were intoxicated, and under j
its influence, did many acts, from the iufl ic = 1
tion or which, citizens suffered who might 1
have otherwise escaped. The strength of the j
column which visited the town, was about'
4.500, and, approaching as they did, from an j
unexpected direction, many persons were I
caught to the art of getting away. Among
tb «»e Messrs. Tbos. Puryer aud Cartey. j
woo had with them valuable racing stock, in
ciuaing “ Censor ” and “ Albion, ” and others.
All were, qf course, captured. Below Cam
den,‘he enemy did not trouble the inhabit
ants; neither of Messrs. Boykin's and John
DeSaussure’s places being visited. General
Chesnut lost horses, mules and provisions, but
the dwellings on his plant e were saved
by one ol his negroes. Hi- <t the Yankees
that “Mossa come dar abiuc once in two
year, and dey alters give him aomein'ing to
eat, but dat was all; and if dt*y burn de
d-y jis turn poor nigger out in de cole. Un
der the influence of this Ethiopian philosophy,
much old and valuable property was spared.
One of the ladies acted with great courage.
The Federate entered her house and demanded
her silver. She told them it was whore they
could not get it. They threatened to burn
the house. Her reply was, “ Burn—but you
won t find what you are looking for.” One
of the Yankees then set the bed on fire, but
the lady still remaining firm, they extinguish
ed the flames and left the premises. Our in
formant, on his way from Columbia, met
large numbers of negroes who had gone
with the enemy ; but were returning in dis
gust—the invariable comment of the simple
hearted darkies being “ Well, boss, did you
eber see such a people ? ” Ail looked as if
they had seen uara tides.
Among the horses captured on Gen. Ohes
nut’s place, we forgot to mention the superb
stallion presented to President Daris by the
Viceroy of Egypt. One of the Yankees, after
riding the animal through the streets, took off
the saddle, and patting him ou the back, re
marked, “ You’re too fine to ride in these
parts, and wq’ll send you to Old Abe. ”
♦ m m-
Lincoln’! inaugural
We are at last in possession of*.* correct
copy of Lincoln’s late inaugural. Here it is:
Fellow-Countrymen: At this second appear
ance to take the oath of the Presidential offi
ce, there is less occasion for an extended ad
dress than there was at the first. Then a
statement, somewhat in detail, $f a course to
he pursued, seemed fitting and proper. Now,
at the expiration of four years, during which
public declarations have been constantly
called forth in eveuy point and phase of the
greafoconiea l which still absorbs the attention
and engrosses the euergiee of the nation, little
that is new could be presented.
The progress of onr arms, upon which all
else chiefly depends, is ae well known to the
public as to myself, and it is, I trust, reasona
bly satisfactory and encouraging to all.
With high hope for the future, no predic
tion in regaid to it is ventuicd. On the occa
sion corresponding to this four years ago, all
thoughts wet - anxiously directed to an im
pending civil war. All dreaded it—all B uu*lii,
to avoid it While the iuauguril address was
being delivered from this place, devoted alto
gether to saving the Union without war, in
surgent agents were in the city seeking to de
stroy it without war—seeking to dissolve the
Union and divide the effects by negotiations.
Both paitiea deprecated war. But one of
them would make war rather than let the na -
tion survive, and the other .votrid accept war
rather than let it perish , &ad the war came.
One eighth of the whole population were col
ored slaves, not distributed generally over the
Union, but localized in the Southern pan of it.
These slaves constituted a peculiar and pow
erful interest. All know th A this interest was
somehow the cause of the war..
To strengthen, perpetuate and extend this inter
est was the object for which the insurgents would
rend the Union—even by war; while the Govern
ment claimed no right to do more than to restrict
the territorial enlargement of it. Neither party
expected by the war the magnitude or duration
which it has already attained. Neither anticipated
that the cause of tho war itself should cease. Each
looked for an easier triumph, and a result less fun
daiuental and astounding.
Both read tho same Bible and pray to tho /ame
God, and each invokes his aid against tho other.
It may seem strange that auy man should dare to
ask a just God’s assistance in wrtuging their bread
from the sweat of other men's taa»a, but let us hot
judge that tto bo not judged. The prayer of both
could uot be answered—that of neither has boen
answered fully.
The Almighty has his own purposes. “Woe
unto tho world because of offences, for it must
needs be that offences como ; but woe to that man
by whom the offence coineth.”
If we should suppose that American slavery is
one of those offonoei which, iu the Piovideaee of
God must needs come, but which having contin
ued through ilis appointed time He now wills to
remove, and that lie give to both North and South
this terrible war as the woe due to those by whom
the offence came, shall we discern thereiu any de
parture from ihoso Divine attributes which
the believer in a living God always ascribes to
him?
Fondiydo we hope—fervently do we pray that
this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass
away; yet, if God wills that it continue until all
the wealth piled by the boudsman’s two hundred
| years of unrequited toil shall be sunk, and every
drop ofbiood drawn with tne lash shall bd paid
by another drawn with the sword, , as was said
three hundred years ago, so still it mast be said,
“the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous
altogether,” with malice towards none; with char
; ity for all; with firmness in tue right, as Goa
rives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish
! the work we are in, to bind up the nation’s wound?,
to care for him who shall have come to the battlo,
and for his widow and orphan ; to do all which
may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace
among ourselves and with all nations.
General Grant, in a letter to an old school-fellow
at Quincy, dated City Point, loth ult., made use of
the following language, in which the analytical
reader will discover a modified tone in striking con
trast with the memorable "fight-it-out, on-this-line
etbanation from the same source ten months ago:
“Everything look to me to be very favorable foi
a speedy termination of the war. sh% people of the
South are ready for it if they can get clear of their
leaders. It is hard to predict what will become of
thedi, the lenders, whether they will flee the coun
try or whether the people will forcibly depose them
and take the matter in their own hands. One or the
other will likely occur if our spring campaign las
successful as l have every hops it will bo.

F7.os< the Augusta correspondence of the
Macon Confederacy we make the following
extract:
*■**■* I have before tue Harpers' and
Frank Leslie's Weeklies of the 11th inat. * *
The leading article iu Harpers’ Weekly is
splendidly written. Subject, Our duty to the
Rebels’’—and is a concise dissertation on the
influence of civil war. The article says it is
a general mistake, one that Mr. Everett, too,
was silly enough to pronounce in a late ora
tion, that the -wounds inflicted by civil war
heal quickly. They do not heal quickly :
hence it advises the United States to be as
gentie and humane iu its treatment of rebels
as firmness of purp- se and security of settle
ment will allow The;e has been no vindict
ive feeling evinced on the part of the loyal
nation since the war began. Magnanimity is
neither forgetfulness nor weakness, and firm
ness is not revenge. The insurractiott was
long prepared by criminal leaders who, for
more than a generation, aimed at the debaucu
ery of the national conscience, appealing to
all that is basest in human nature to secure
their object of disruption. They made the
United States hated as a bully at home and
slave drivers abroad, creating that public sen
timent in Europe that hailed our probable de
struction with delight.
• These crimes of the rebel leaders can never
be safely forgotten. These leaders are to be
remembered, not for the blood of the war, not
for the blood of the war. not for the young
and noble they have sacrificed, not for the
broken hearts and wasted homes and desolate
tend, not for treason, but for that conduct and
purpose that made the war inevitable.
Jefferson Davis, if he falls into the hands
of the nation, must not be hung for treason;
but by solemn act of Congress he should be
disfranchised as an American citizen, and then
delivered to the remembrance of the country
he sought to debase and destroy.
Time and constant intercourse, tend gentle
ness, will wear away the feeling engendered
between the people of the sections.

the number to depend upon the facility of transpor

and the practicability of subsisting them at tho point
of assembly.
2. Camps of Rendezvous will be established as
early as practicable at the following points, viz: 1
Columbus, Atlanta, Albany, Macon and Augusta, j
Georgia; Montgomery, Selma snd Mobile, Alala- j

duty within the limits of ther commands.
5. I am informea that the officers sent to me for ?
this duty have been selected for their special fitness.
It is, therefore, not necessary to urge upon them de
votion to the service and earnestness in their en
deavors to assist in bringing their old comrades
back to their colors, but as*the very nature of their
service sends them to the vicinity of their- homes 1 j
may warn them of the danger of allowing them
selves to lose one day in the enjoyment of home,
which should be devoted to filling the ranks, by
which homes are to be defended.
6. All officers and men returning are urged to j
bring in their arms, or any arms they may find in
the country. They will the sooner be enabled to
join their colors. W. W. MACK ALL. |
