The Private Soldiers.
We have no words to express our admiration
of the private soldiers in the ranks of the
Southern Army. They are not enlisted mer
cenaries: they are volunteers, and yet bear
all the hardships and perils that fall to the lot
of mercenary privates, and like them, thrown
in the front ground in peril, and thrown in the
' back ground in the distribution of glory. It
is necessarily so, for glory, as widely diffused,
I bears to each man no distinguishing mark,
I though each had been a hero worthy “ all
| Greek and Roman fame.’’ And it is because,
. knowing that they would have the lion's share
( of danger, and that the monopoly of the re
' uown must, and perhaps ought to, fall to the
| more prominent figures in the canvass, to the
military leaders, they rush not only with will
, ingness but enthusiasm to the ranks, that we
honor and admire the volunteer private sol-
I diets of the South above all other men and
; classes of men in this Nineteenth Century
We honor and respect, as all men ought,
j the great military chieftains, and all the sub
i ordinate officers who are qualified for their po
sitions, but yet we look upon the private vol
-1 unteer soldier- with a reverence that we feel
■ for no official rank. Their being where they
are shows us just what they are. Their posi
-1 tion saves us the trouble of analyzing their
motives ; they are honest as they are brave
they are men—genuine men, the true metal
pure gold. They are no political aspirants, no
military pretenders, no “fuss and feathers’’
humbugs; but patriots and heroes, to whom
you may take off your hat, and do homage to
sincerity and manliness in the most perfect
combination and unquestionable shape.
• I With few exceptions, of worthless and reck-
I less adventures—so few that they only estab-
. I lish the general rule—the volunteer privates
of the Southern States are the very flower of
the whole land. In all that constitutes char-
• acter, vittue and social position, the great body
( of these men, carrying muskets on their shoul
i ders, sleeping often on the bare ground, and
t eating cheerfully the coarsest food, are equal
f ; in every respect to the highest officers by whom
r | they are led to battle. Yet, for I hat very rea
, ■ son, no symptom of discontent, no spirit ot
. i insubordination, is ever manifest in their
e j ranks. Implicit obedience to orders, which it
- . was thought would be a difficult thing to eii
, ; force among high spirited Southerners, has
t become a distinguishing characteristic of fh<
1 : Southern camp, whilst the very opposite pre
, ’ vails among the Northern soldiers, whose fre
I j quent rows and breaches of discipline are rn.t
n | ters of constant newspaper notoriety. Th<
y ' reason of the difference is that the Southen
Army, the rank and file, is mostly made up o
- gentlemen, who have taken up arms from thi
purest sentiments of patriotism ; who submi
e to the most irksome discipline on account o
>f the cause, and whose habitual-elf-respect pre
■- cluds the very existence of a spirit of envj
e ■ and insubordination towards official super!
r j ors.
II ■ We do not speak the language of exaggera
it ' tion when we say that such an army as tin
South has now in the field the world never sav
( , before. Europe has had larger armies mad
y up, however, of mercenaries, of the very dre;
ie of the earth, but never any country, in uncivil
,o | or modern times, an army comprising the ver
>t ; cream of intelligence, virtue ami honor of th
1- i land. Braver men neither Greece nor Rom
it i ever produced : the Old Guard of Napoleo
in 1 and the Zouaves ot the present Emperor, nev
e- jer achieved greater prodigies of valor ; bi
who would compare the one or the other, i
|( j. i individual dignity of character, with the pr
t( , vate soldiers of the Southern Army? The
p ; valor, however, is surpassed by their fortitud
r . and patience, exercised in the endurance t
r . privations and hardships far more trying i
o f such spirits than the ordeal of the battle-lick
,ii- D is a mystery to us how youths, tenderly nu
of tured, and many of them not come to man
iso estate; how gentlemen accustomed not only
>m the comforts of competency, but the luxuri
Jtu of wealth, exchange all this for the corn oak

( , and fried bacon of tho camp, cooking it them
selves, and in the most perfect ignorance o
( how to cook it properly; sleeping often on tin
bare ground, exposed to all the vicissitudes o
h- weather, and enduring personal privations
le wants, and hardships which the most of theii
H slaves have never suffered, and all this withou
a murmur or complaint ; all this for the causi
I and without the faintest hope of that renowi
and fame officers may hope for, but which, it
)p the nature of things, must be greatly weaken
v ed by diffusion through a large mass. A gen
y tleuian, who has seen many of our wounded
h soldiers, informs us that he has not met one

( cult to find one who complains of his coarse

The following description of the military
s habits ot this celebrated leader are given in a
letter from Manassas Junction to the New <>r-
II i i>-
leans “Picayune:
c . ‘
“As might be expected from the skill with
which he has chosen his position and the sys
tem with which he encamps his men, General
Beauregard is very popular here. 1 doubt if
Napoleon himself had more the undivided con
fidence of his army. By nature, as also from
’ a wise policy, he is very reciteat. Notan in
dividual here knows his plans or a single move
t of a regiment before it is made, and then only
the Colonel and his men know where it goes to.
There is not a man here who can give anything
like a satisfretory answer how many men ho
has or where his exact lines are. So close
does the General keep his affairs to himself,
his left hand hardly knows what his right hand
I doeth : and so jealous is he of this prerogative
of a commanding officer, that I verily bel'eve,
it he suspected his coat of any acquaintance
with the plans revolving within him, be would
I cast it from him.
The General’s headquarters is a little farm
house, about fifteen by twenty, fronting on
on one of the roads that lead to Alexandria.—
The ground floor is divided into two rooms.
( The front one is filled with desks, at whi< h
clerks sil writing, or engaged in business of a
, varied character. The back one appears to
be used for a store room and a kitchen. A
bove, the same division continues, and the
front room is the General’s apartment. It is
about fifteen feet long by ten wide, and hung
with maps of the State and county around. In
the centre is a plain pine table, on which lie
neatly folded up, what the visitor would natu
rally take to be plans, specifications, surveys,
geometrical drawings, &c., and by their side
military reports. Everything has the air of
neatness, coolness, and mathematical calcula
tion. Os course, there is nothing in the room
but what pertains to the office, and to most
eyes it would appear somewhat bare; but
what there is. is arranged with so much taste
that the general impression is by no means un
pleasing.
The General is in his room the greater part
of the day, apparently occupied with his plans
and reports. Then hour after hour he sits a
lone by his neat little pine table, maps, plans,
and specifications before him, and large open
windows behind and around him, at first
sight the cold calculating, unsympathizing
mathematician. Every now and then an aid
enters with a report of a message, which is
delivered in military style, deliberately exam
ined in silence, the corresponding order
promptly written out for deliverey in as few
words as possible, and our mathematical ice
berg is alone again. When a visitor comes in
however, at a leisure moment, the formality of
the officer readily gives way to that' easy in
terchange of civilities which characterizes our
people at home, but nothing more. Even at
the table, when he is daily surrounded by the
most distinguished gentlemen of the country,
there appears to be a distance which, I sup
pose, is natural to his position, but which is
rarely found elsewhere.
The leading characteristic of General Beau
regard's mind is clearness of preception.—
Super-added to this is a strictly mathematical
education. This you see in word and look,
even in the expression of his face. Sines, co
sines and tangents stick out everywhere. In
person, he is slender, but compactly built, and
extremely neat. Add to this a precision of
manner, slightly modified by the ease which
characterizes the welDbred man of the world,
and you have a correct idea of the man whose
word is law and gospel, throughout one of the
largest, most intelligent and best appointed
armies ever assembled on the American Con
tinent.
The General’s mess is very much in keeping
with his character, and simple enough for Na
poleon himself. It is served on a long pine
I table, set in an open piazza of the farm house,
and all his friends are hospitably welcomed to
it three times a day. The General sits nearly
> in the middle, his aids immediately on one side
' and his latest guests on the other ; the rest of
the company as they may choose or chance to
seat themselves : the viands, are such as the
‘ country around afford, only the rice was im
' ported, and with it, I suspect, a South Carolina
■ cook, for every kernal was as independent as
r | the State from which it came.
, A Darkey’s Account of the Great Battle.
’ It is reported that C'ambyses in one of his
battles with the Egyptians, resorted to the
I stratagem of marching before his columns the
0 sacred Ibis, which rather than endanger the
t . . . . . 6
life of, the conscientious heathens laid down
their arms and surrendered without resistance.
' If the professed veneration which the Yankees
have for their ebony idols down South had
s any validity, this little scrap of history might
f suggest the idea of taking advantage of the
Abolition sensibilities and sheltering our forces
y behind the assumed objects of ther religious
' solicitude. Certainly, rather than endanger
T one of their idols they would lay down their
arms 1 But a Yankee’s professions are not to
n be relied on.

*’ as much foundation in reality, as the reflection
18 of a ghost of the shadow of a hypothetical
10 rainbow has on the apochryphal pot of gold al
its base. How much confidence is placed in
B ' them, even by the objects of their hypocritical
*'■ worship, was illustrated by one of these ebony
lc idols we heard on the streets last night, in tin
n midst of a circle of listeners to whom he was
narrating the “ accidents by flood and field’
ie at Manassas, where to use his own language
he “ went, in like a wagon load of burnt clay'

An Injunction Against Ex-Senator .Vinson
of A'irginia.
The Philadelphia “ Inquirer says :
, On Monday Mr. Benjamin Chew, of Ger- I
mantown, applied to Judge Ludlow for an in- ;
junction to prevent Senator Mason from taking
funds out of any estate in which he is interes-
i ted, located in the Twenty-second Ward, in
this county. In asking for the order Mr.
Chew said : “ 1 apply to your honor for an or
der to prevent James M. Mason from taking*
, out of the jurisdiction ofthecourt funds which
the trustees have invested under the order of i
the Orphan’s Cour’ Already a very large |
sum has been taken out of the State by that !
I .
very remarkable traitor, and 1 have no pros- !
pect of ever getting retribution if the balance j
of the funds is taken away.”
Judge Ludlow suggested that a citation
might issue, and notice could be made by pub
lication. Senator Mason has ten days in which |
to appear and answer. Cr. Chew and Mr. Ma- '
son are brothers in-law.
Outrage by Federal Troops.
T. B. Munson, of Fairfax county, Va., who 1
says he is not only a strong Union man, but j
voted for Mr. Lincoln, thus writes to the Wash- j
ington Star :
I wish to bring to your notice the fact that
the Federal troops have been recently commit
ting the most wanton depradations upon my
property, and the property of other Union
men in the vicinity. They have already ta

with the most unblushing impudence directly ;

Upon being remonstrated with, they reply
“ that their Colonel told them whenever they
were short of provisions to help themselves
wherever they find it.”
One day this week, during the absence of
my son in Alexandria, a party of soldiers came
in the pasture, took a valuable farm horse, i
carried it into their camp, reporting that they
had taken a hor.->e from a secessionist living out
side of the lines. About the same time they -
shot one of my sheep and carried it oil'.

The only ground on which they arc brought to your at

they are found wanting in this respect, judicious teachers
will reject them ; but if they stand the test of criticism,
and are “superior to all others,” as has been asserted by
numerous Superintendents of Education, Professors and

The next term of this well-known School will open on
the second Monday in January, with the above corps of
able and experienced Teachers. The best proof of the
’t merit of the Institution is the liberal patronage that has
i- been bestowed upon it in the past—there having been over
two hundred students instructed in it during the last year.
Young gentlemen and ladies who desire to become thorough
and accomplished scholars can be made such in this School
in as short a time and for less money than they can at any
other place in Georgia. The great source of dissipation
among students, the sale of liquor, is prohibited by the laws
of the town, and hence their morals are as safe here as if
. they were under the immediate care of their parents. The
h town of Jonesboro’, in which the School is located, is as
good as any in the State.
Tuition is from sl6 to S4O per year. A deduction of ten
per cent, is made in favor of those who pay in advance.
Young ladies who take Music lessons pay S4O extra. No
s deductions made on account of absence, except in cases of
f protracted illness.
Board, including lodgings, washing, Ac., may be had for
$9 per month. For other information address cither of the
u Principals. nov22-tf

Many of these gifted ladies will write during
’ the year thrilling novellettes, and all of them
, will contribute literary gems, spicy sketches,
• and sweet poems.
Some of the most distinguished men in this
State have thus expressed themselves in regard
to the merits of the Crusader, and it now prom
ises to be far more attractive than ever before.
Hon. ALEXANDER 11. STEPHENS, says:
“Os all the publications I take, 1 prize none
more highly than the Crusader— not one do I
, look for with more interest, and not one con
tains more original and readable matter, in
prose and poetry. It is the best literary jour
nal south of the Potomac, and I think one ot
- the best of its kind in the whole country.”
f
[ Hon. ROBERT TOOMBS, says:
3 “I enclose you my subscription to the Cr:i
; sader. Ido not know a newspaper which bet
5 ter deserves the public patronage. It is not
f excelled by any weekly which has fallen under •
- my eye, in the excellence and brilliancy of its
’ literary contributions, and I trust it will meet
, with a patronage equal to its very great merits "
' Hon. Judge JOSEPH H. LUMPKIN, says:
! “ 1 am delighted with the improvement which
the Crusader has undergone. I can cordially
1 recommend it, which I take pleasure in doing,
as one of the best family papers in the whole
country. It is quietly, but efficiently accom
plisbing the noble purpose for which it was
established.”
Judge THOMAS W. THOMAS, says
“I am very much pleased with the Crusader.
I consider it in the front rank of literary jour
nals in point of ability and taste in the United
States. In establishing it and bringing it to
its present high position, you have accomplish
ed a feat that I did not consider possible a few
years ago. As a Georgian lam proud of it—
as a Southern man I am grateful to you for
this decided step towards emancipating us
from Northern influence, and which, so far
I can see and hear, is the result solely of your
perseverance and enterprise.”
Hon. BENJAMIN H. HILL, says:
“ 1 believe every family in this State ought
to take the Crusader. It is the best secular
family paper in all my knowledge in this coun
try. I admit no superior to it, North or South.
If any man in Georgia will take the paper one
year, and then either the man or his wife will
i say this eulogy is not just, I will pay his sub
scription price. I honestly believe every mao
1 will benefit his family by taking the paper. 1
should have more hopes of the rising genera
tion, if all the young people would read if.
JAMES R. THOMAS, D. D., President of Em-
, ory College, says:
“We earnestly solicit from all who have a
- ‘ heart on the right side,’ to come up to the
' support of the Crusader. It comes to us in its
weekly visits freighted-with choice matter,
whether considered in its moral or its literary
; aspects—and in its dress looking as neat and
tasteful as a ‘ May Queen' on a coronation day
1 Do, everybody, subscribe for the Crusader!"
- N. M. CRAWFORD, D. D., President of Mer
cer University, says :
o “I regard the Crusader as one of the very
best family papers now published—North or
’ South. I shall be glad to hear of its increased
r prosperity.”
r
f RICH’D M. JOHNSTON, Professor of Belles
Lettres, State University, says:
s • '
j “ The Crusader has, in my opinion, created
1 a greater interest for reading among our peu
pie than any other paper ever published at the
South. The original articles in it, from the
editors, are generally most excellent. Success
to you. You will have ii, I feel sure.”
i
i
Col. JAMES M. SMYTHE, says;
“The Crusader is eminently worthy of South
ern patronage, It is a first-rate Temperance
and Literary sheet. I trust those who are
warmed beneath Georgia skies, will support
and cherish this Georgia enterprise, so ablj
conducted by Georgia genius. An examina
tion of a single number will attract thousand-s
to its generous patronage.”
Cot- LEONARD T. DOYAL, says :
a “In papers, magazinesand reviews, I take,
e in all, twenty-six periodicals, from different
'y parts of the United States, but Ido honestly,
i r and am proud to say it, consider the Georgia
w Temperance Crusadir tar the best publication I
” receive. In my opinion, it is the best journal
', l . published North or South, and should be pa
y tronized by every Southerner.”
Rev. J. E. RYERSON, of Nev. Orleans, says
C “ 1 have long desired to write you in refer
I ence to your noble efforts to furnish our peo
g pie with a paper of the highest literary and
moral character. You have succeeded beyond
my most anxious expectations. In a literary
l- point of view, as well as a paper of general
intelligence, 1 know nothing superior in the
whole land. As a temperance, literary, moral
and general intelligence paper, we have not
in my humble estimation, its equal. It is
worty of the support of every good man. Il
~ is worthy of a prominent place in every home
t” iu the land, where may it soon find a welcome.
It is high time our people were furnished with
n a pure literature. 1 feel that this desideratum
you have nobly met in the Crusader. May you
t ',’ prosper more and more, is the earnest and
a honest prayer of your friend.”

Rev. A. MEANS, D. D., LL. D., Professor
p . Atlanta Medical College, says:
i “As an interesting and safe family news
paper, we cordially commend the Crusader to
•• parental patronage. Its pure morals, its chaste
and uncontaminated pages, and its fine literary
contributions, supplied by some of f : he most
ii polished and prolific pens of the South, io
gether with its constant and deferential recog-
" J nition of the claims of piety and the*Religion

: g r \ visitor to the consecrated home and fireside,
where beauty and innocence receive their first
in and strongest impressions for life.”
