Eloquent Sjictcli of Hon. Howell Cobb. On TVcthiesdav evening, (says the At lanta Confederacy) the train from La- Orange brought Oor. Cobb, on his way home from Montgomery. He went to the Atlanta Hotel ant 1 It was quickly ascertained n. and a very great number oi eiuzei.i, gathered in front of the hotel, tiding tip the entire space out to the railroad track, and the crowd gathered as far on either side as the front of the hotel could he seen. After he had partaken of his repast, Mr. Cobb, in response to the calls of the crowd, came out upon the steps of the hotel and addressed them as follows : Mv Friends : I wish 1 had something to say to compensate you for assembling on this occasion. I believe you will bear me witness that I have never failed in At lanta to respond xvhen called on by my friends. The only excuse I could now render would be that I have nothing to say, though I suppose you want to knotv something of what has taken place at Montgomery. AVe have discharged all ottr duties—made all the arrangements necessary for our protection, and have ad journed to meet in Hichmond on the 20th of July next. If you wish to know why the Govern ment was removed to Richmond, 1 can say, circumstances have arisen that have rendered it proper. We have received thej Old Dominion into our Confederacy. Her soil will, perhaps, be the battle ground of this struggle. Her enemies are gathered around her to force her into sub jection to their foul dictates. We felt it our duty to be at the seat of war. We wanted to let Virginia know that whatev er threats or dangers were presented to her, filled our hearts with sympathy for her, which we are willing to exhibit, to stow that there was not a man in the Con federacy who was afraid to be at his post on Virginia soil. We also wanted to be near our brave boys, so that xvhen we threw off the badge of Legislators, we might take up arms and share with them the fortunes of war. We felt the cause of Virginia to be the cause of us all. If she falls, xve shall nil fall; and we were will ing to be at the spot to be among the first victims. Wc were ready to say to Lin coln, when lie attempts to put his foot on Virginia’s soil, “Thus far slialt thou come and no further.” (Cheers.) What more can I say to you ? One other thing I will say : it is my duty, and I discharge it. Our brave men from all the States are offering their services free ly. It would seem as if they had given their blood freely, to be poured out, a willing sacrifice, if need be, upon the altar of our country. When we called for twelve months’ volunteers, our brave boys everywhere responded with an ardor and zeal that knew no bounds; aud xvhen we called for volunteers for the war, the num ber was increased. (Loud cheers.) It fills my heart to see that, in this race, to have wrongs redressed, this noble State— the old commonwealth of Georgia—stands second to none. (Applause.) Georgia— proud old Georgia—may justly boast of the patriotism of her sons, who are resol ved to see the last traitor in his grave, and drive far from our borders the last enemy. But xve must have, not men alone, but treasnre also. Money in large sums will be necessary to carry on the war, if it last long. Do you know the feelings .of our people on this point, also ? Let me give it to you in an instance to illustrate tbe whole. On tbe banks of tbe Mississippi lives a large planter. He is an old man, whose trembling limbs have borne him to.liis three score and ten years, lie sends a thousand hags of cotton to market every year. He was asked, what will you give to sustain our Government in this war ?— “Tell them,” said he, with the fires of pa triotism glowing over all his features, “when my cotton reaches the market, to give me enough for my expenses, and take all the rest.” Noble old patriot! And there arc thousands and tens of thousands like him all over the South ! But your country wants no donations— no private contributions to sustain her. She has resources amply sufficient to bear every burden without asking a cent of any one by way of contribution, but I’ll tell you what you can do and what you are expected to do. It is this: Let every cotton and rice planter, aud every wheat grower in the South, when his crop is gathered, sell it to the Confederate States and take their bonds. It will form a good circulating medium, and be the soundest currency that the country has ever had. Let the government sell the product of our land to Europe for the specie to support our brave hoys in the field. Every pound of cotton that I raise that is not absolutely necessary to supply the wants of my fami ly! shall go to the support of the war, and that is the feeling everywhere. A repre sentative from Mississippi said, I have no cotton—not a bale—but from now till the next meeting of Congress, wherever a man can be found, I shall urge him to sell His cotton to U»e Government, and take its bonds in payment, to support our brave boys in arms. Another incident will illustrate the feel ing of our people, and especially the la dies. Our noble women are true to our cause. Tbe women of Montgomery, at shortest notice, not long since, made thou sands of sand bags for our soldiers at Pen sacola. The message came there on Fri day evening at 5 o’clock that these sand bags were wanted at once. How shall they be had ? was on every man’s lips. Go to the ladies, said one, and they did so. The money was raised, and the material purchased, and by 6 o’clock on Monday evening, the work was done. They as sembled in the churches of the Ever-living God, and with their hands toiled night and day till the work was completed.— (Cheers.) Talk about subjugating a peo ple where such a spirit as that prevails ! If you lay aside all the men in the South, all Abolitiondom could not subdue our women. (Cheers.) My confidence in our success is greatly enhanced from the con duct of our women and the children that play around our feet. The faith which I learned in Christian childhood, tells me that God is still on the side of Truth and Justice. As God lives, and as He is the God of Truth and Justice, such a people can never be conquered. (Applause.) One other idea aud I am done. When I went to Montgomery, only six States were represented there. Now there are nine. And the good old North State has also unanimously seceded ; and every gale that wafts from ’Tennessee brings the evi dence that her gallant sons will unite heart and soul with us ! Heaven has smiled on us from the first. Go and look at your crops ; you may call it a good season, or whatever else you may, but I toll you tliat it is the blessing of God upon us at this time. My friends, I know you will excuse me from making any further remarks at this time. I have been traveling, am fatigued, and have been speaking at many ot tbe stations along tbe route. He retired amidst tbe wildest applause, and “three cheers for Cobb,” which were given vociferously. Interesting Svg a tlU/l •. The following article, on “Soldiers’ Health,” is from Hall’s Journal of Health. It contains much valuable information for both soldiers and civilians : 1. In an. ordinaiy campaign, sickness disables or destroys three times as many as tbe, sword. 2. On a march, from April to Novem ber, the entire clothing should be a color ed flannel shirt, with a loosely buttoned collar, cotton drawers, woolen pantaloons, shoes and stockings, and a light-colored felt hat, with broad brim, to protect the eyes and face from the glare ot the sun and from the rain, and a substantial, but not heavy, coat when on duty. 3. Sun stroke is most effectually pre vented by wearing a silk handkerchief in the crown of the hat. 4. Colofed blankets are best; and if lined with brown diilling, the wramth and durability are doubled, while the protec tion against dampness from lying on the ground is almost complete. 5. Never lie or sit down on the grass or bare earth for a moment; rather use your hat—a handkerchief, even, is a great pro tection. The warmer you are the great er need for this protection, as a damp va por is immediately generated to be ab sorbed by the clothing, and to cool you off too rapidly. 6. "While marching, or oil other active duty, the more thirsty you are, the more essential is it to safety of life itself, to rinse out the month two or three times, and then take a swallow of water a time, with short intervals. A brave French General, on a forced march, fell dead on the instant, by drinking largely of cold water, when snow was on the ground. 7. Abundant sleep is necessary to bodi ly efficiency, and to that alertness of of mind which is all-important in the en gagement ; and few things more effectual ly prevent sound sleep than eating heartily after sundown, especially after a heavy march or desperate battle. 8. Nothing is more certain to secure en durance and capability of long continued effort than the avoidance of everythingas a drink except cold water, not excluding coffee at breakfast. Drink as little as pos sible, of even cold water. 9. After any sort of exhausting effort, a cup of cofljj£, hot or cold, is an admirable sustainer of the strength, until nature be gins to recover herself. 10. Never eat heartily just before a great undertaking; because the nervous power is irresistibly drawn to the stomach to manage tbe food eaten, thus drawing off that supply which the brain and mus cle so much need. 11. If persons will drink brandy, it is incomparably safer to do so after an effort than before; for it can give only a tran sient strength, lasting but a few minutes; but as it can never be known how long any given effort is to be kept in continuance, and if longer than the few minutes, the bod}' becomes more feeble than it would have been without the stimulus, it is clear that its use before an effort is always haz ardous, and is always unwise. 12. Never go to sleep, especially after a great effort, even in hot weather, without some covering over you. 13. Under all circumstances, rather than lie down on the bare ground, lie in the hol low of two logs placed together, or across several smaller pieces ot wood, laid side by side ; or sit on your hat, leading against a tree. A nap of ten or fifteen minutes in that position will refresh you more than an hour on the bare earth, with the addi tional advantage of perfect safety. 14. A cut is less dangerous than a bul let wound, and heals inq/e rapidly. 15. If from any wound the blood spirts out in jets, instead of steady stream, you will die in a few minutes, unless it is rem edied ; because an artery lias been divi ded, and tliat takes tbe blood direct from tbe fountain of life. To stop this instant ly, tie a handkerchief or other cloth very loosely between the wound and heart; put a stick, bayonet, or ramrod between the skin and the handkerchief, and keep it thus until the surgeon arrives. 16. If the blood flows in a slow, regu lar stream, a vein has been pierced, and the handkerchief must be on the other side of the wound from the heart—that is, below the wound. 17. A bullet through the abdomen (bel ly or stomach) is more certainly fatal than if aimed at the head or heart; for iu the latter cases the ball is often glanced off by the bone, or follows round it under the skin; but when it enters the stbmach or bowels, from any direction, death is inevi table under all conceivable circumstances, but is scarcely ever instantaneous. Gen erally the person lives a day or two with perfect clearness of intellect, often not suf fering greatly. The practical bearing of this statement in reference to the great fu ture i£ clear. 18. Let the whole beard grow, but no [NUMBER 2. longer than three inches. Tins strength ens and thickens its growth, and thus makes a more perfect protection for the lungs against dust, and of the throat against winds and cold in winter, while in the stimmer-a greater perspiration of the skin is induced, with an increase of evapo ration; hence, greater coolness of the parts on the outside, while the throat is less fe verish, thirsty and dry. 19. Avoid fats and fat meat in summer and all warm days. 20. Whenever possible, take a plunge into any lake or running stream every morning as soon as you get up. If none is at hand, endeavor to wash the body all over as soon as you leave your bed, for cleanliuess acts like a charm against ali diseases, always either warding them oft altogether, or greatly mitigating their se verity and shortening their duration. 21. Keep the hair of the head closely cut, say within an inch and a half of the scalp in every part, repeated on the first of each month, and wash the whole scalp plentifully in cold water every morning. 22. Wear woollen stockings and moder ately loose shoes, keeping the toe and fin ger nails always cut close 23. It is more important to xvash the feet well every night than to wash the face and hands of mornings, because it aids in keeping the skin and nails soft, and to prevent chafings, blisters and corns, ail of which greatly interfere with a soldier’s duty. 24. The most universally safe position, after all stuunings, hurts and wounds, is that of being placed on the back, tbe bead being elevated three or four inches only, aiding more than any one thing else can do to equalize and restore the proper cir culation of the blood. 25. The more weary you are after a march or other work, the more easily you will take cold, if you remain still after it is over, unless, the moment you cease mo tion, you throw a coat or blanket over your shoulders. This precaution should be taken in the warmest weather, especially if there is even a slight air stirring. 26. The greatest physical kindness you can show a severely wounded comrade, is ”' him on his back, and then run for some water to drink. Notasecw ag;: ’ If n0 ( V CS- sel is at hand take you. with your shirt ; wring it o the arms in a knot, as also the lower cua, thus making a bag, open at tbe neck only A fleet person can convey a bucketful half a mile in this way. I’ve seen a dying man clutch at a single drop of water from .the fingers’ end, with the voraciousness of a famished tiger. 27. If wet to the skin by rain or by swimmiDg rivers, keep in motion until the clothes are dried, aud no harm will re suit. 2S. Whenever it is possible, do, by all means, when you have to use water for cooking or drinking from ponds or slug gish streams, boil it well, and, when cool, shake it, or stir it, so that the oxygen of the air shall get to it, which greatly im proves it for drinking. This boiling arrests the progress of fermentation which arises from the presence of organic and inorganic impurities, thus tending to prevent cholera and all bowel diseases. If there is no time for boiling, at least strain it through a cloth, even if you have to use a shirt or trowser-leg. 29. Twelve men are hit in battle dress ed in red where there are only five dressed in a blueish gray—a difference of more than two to one; green, seven; brown, six. 30. Water can he made almost ice in the hottest weather by closely enveloping a filled canteen, or other vessel, with woolen cloth, kept plentifully wetted and exposed. 31. While on a march lie down the mo ment you halt to rest. Every minute spent in that position refreshes more than five standing or loitering about. 32. A daily evacuation of the bowels is indispensable to bodily heath, vigor and endurance; this is promoted in many cases by stirring a table-spoonful of corn (Indian) meal in a glass of water, and drinking it on rising iu the morning. » 33. Loose botvels. namely, acting more than once a day, with a feeling of debility #terwards, is the first step towards chol era. The best, remedy is instant and per fect quietude of body ; eating nothing but boiled rice, with or without boiled milk , in more decided cases, a woolen flannel, with two thicknesses in front, should be bound tightly around the abdomen, espe cially if nyirching is a necessity. 34. To “have been to the wars” is a life-long honor, increasing with advancing years, while to have died in defence of your country will be the boast and glory of your children’s children. ‘•GOING TO SING IN HEAVEN.” early. f Hert’s% rwft ■ How w *t*.' »td in ttie long, brilliant .n ..g-saloon! Clusters of gas jets streamed over the glitter and colour of pictures and gorgeous carpets, and the rows of marble tab^s rejected hack the lights as well as the g' t-v; The two merchants had eaten, ana were just on the point of rising, when a strain of soft mnsic came through an open door-—a child’s sweet voice. “Upon my word that is pretty;” said John II ; “what marvellous purity in those tones!” “Out of here, you little baggage,” cried a hoarse voice, and one of the waiters pointed angrily to the door. “Let her come in,” said John H—— springing to his feet. “We don't allow them in this place, sir,” said the waiter, “but she can go in the reading-room.” “Well, let her gc somewhere, for I want to hear her,” responded the gentleman. All this time the two had seen the shadow of something hovering back and forth on the edge of the door; now they followed a slight little figure, wrapped in patched cloak, patched hood, and leaving the marks of wet feet as she walked. Curious to see her face—she was very small—John H lured her for the furtherest part of the room, where there were but few gentlemen, and then motion ed her to sing. The little one looked timidly up. Her cheek was of olive-daik- ness, but a flush rested there, and oat of the thinnest face, under the arch of broad temples, deepened by masses of the black est hair, looked two eyes, whose softness and tender pleading would have touched the hardest heart. “That little thing is sick, I believe,” said John H compassionately. “What do yon sing, child?” he added. “I sing you Italian, or little English,” she said softly. John II had been looking at her shoes. “Why!” lie exclaimed, and his lip quivered, “her feet are wet to her ankles, absolutely; her shoes are full of holes.” By this time the child had begun to sing, pushing back her hood and folding before her her little thin fingers. Her voice was wonderful; and simple and com mon as were both air and words, the power and pathos of the tones drew together several of the habitues of the reading- room. ’The little song commenced thus— "There is a happy land, Far, far away.” Never could the voice, the manner, of that child be forgotten. There almost seemed a halo around her head; and when she finished, her great speaking eyes turn ed toward John H “Look here, child, where did you learn that song?” he asked. “In Sabbath school, sir,” was the simple «i>nnosc there is a hap A SKETCH. “If I could have your faith,B- gladly would I—hut I was born a sceptic. I cannot help my doubts more than 1 can the results they lead to. I cannot look upon God and a future as you do; with my temperament, and the peculiar bias of my mind, it is utterly impossible.” So said John H -, as he walked with a friend under a dripping umbrella; for the night was stormy and veiy dark, though the brilliancy of tbe shop-lamps made a broad path of light along the wet side walk. John H was a sceptic of thirty years standing, and apparently hardened in his unbelief. Everybody had given him up as unconvertible. Reasoning ever so fairly and calmly made no impression on the rocky soil of his heart. Theologians disliked the sight of his massive face, and humble Christians sighed as he passed them. A man with such capacities, they said—with such generous impulses (for everybody kuew how kind he was,) with an intellect so enriched, and powers of the keenest metal—and yet no God!—no hope of the future!—walking with the lamp at his feet, unenlightened. Alas! it was sad, very sad. But one friend had never given him up. When spoken to about him—“I will talk with and pray for that man until I die,” he said; “and I will have faith that he may yet come out of darkness into the marvel lous light. And oh, how wonderful that light will seem to him II was always ready for “a taik,”) Mr. B pressed home the truth upon him. In answer, on that stormy night, he only said, “God can change a sceptic, John. He has more power over your heart than you have, and 1 mean still to pray for you.” “Oh, I have no objections, none in the world—seeing is believing, you know. I’m ready for any modern miracle, but I tell yon it would tak& nothing short of a miracle to convince me. However, let’s change the subject. l’ic hungry, and it’s too far to go up town to supper this stormy night—especially as I shall shut up sho^, py Ian o c many eyes upon him. “1 know there is; I’m goi. 0 there,” she said, so quietly, so decidedly, that the men looked at each other. “Going to sing there?” “Yes, sir. My mother said so. She used to siDg to me until she was sick. Then she said she wasn’t going to sing any more on earth, tut up in heaven.” “Well—and what then?” “And then she died, sir,” said the child, tears brimming up and over on the dark cheek, now ominously flushed scarlet. John II was silent for afew moments. Presently he said;— “Well, if she died, my little girl, you may live, you know.” “O no, sir! no, sir [very quickly J—I’d rather go there, and he with mother.— Sometimes I have a dreadful pain in my side, and cough as she did. There won’t be any pain up there, sir; it’s a beautiful world!” How do you know?” faltered on the lips of the sceptic. “My mother told me so.” Words how impressive! manner how child-like, and yet how wise! John H— had had a praying mothrv ' labored for a moment—the sod.-* . gled for utterance conld be heard even in their deeps—and still those large, soft, lus trous eyes, like magnets, impelled his glance towards them. “Child, you mnst have a pair of shoes.” John H ’s voice was liuttky. Simultaneously hands were thrnst in pockets, purses pulled out, and the aston ished child held in her little palm more money than she had ever seen before. “Her father is a poor, consumptive orgau-grinder,” whispered one. I suppose he’s too sick to be out to-night.” Along the sloppy street went the child under the protection of John H , but not with skocs that drank the water at every step. Warmth and comfort were hers now. Down in the deep, den-like lanes of the city walked the man, a little cold, child-band in his. At an open, broken door they stopped; up broken, creaking stairs they climbed. At last another doorway opened, and a wheezing voice called out of the dim arch—“ Car- lctta.” “O father! father! see what I have brought you! look at me! look at me!” and down went the hoarded silver, and venting her excessive joy, the child fell, crying and laughing together, into the man’s arms. “Was he a man?” A face dark and hollow, all overgrown with hair, black as night, and uncombed; a pair of wild eyes; a body bent nearly double; hands like claws. “Did lie give yon all this, Uarletta?” “They all did, father; now you shall have soup and orange*.” “Thank you, sir-^J*m sick, you see— all gone, sir—had to’send the poor child out, or we’d starve, sir, God bless you, sir! I wish I was well enough to play you a tune; and he looked wistfully toward the corner where stood the old organ, baize- covered—the baize in tatters. It’s no matter,” said John H , with difficulty. “I’ll come and see you some other time,” and he groped his way down stairs. One month .after that the merchants met again, as if by agreement, and walked slowly down town, Threading innumer able passages, they came to the gloomy building where lived Uarletta’s father. No—not lived there; for as they paused a moment, out came two or three men bearing a pine coffin. In the coffin, the top nailed down so that no monrner might open, provided there had been any such, slept the old organ-grinder. “It was very sudden, sir,” said a woman who reeognized his benefactor. “Yester day the little girl was took sick, and it seemed if he dropped right away. He died at six last night.” The two men ivent silently np stairs. shut up so long!

Oh, how those dark eyes on the instant became eloquent, as John H. sat on the side of the bed! “Well, my little one, so you are no bet ter?” “Oh, no, sir! Father is gone up there, and I’m going.” Up there! John H——turned uncon sciously towards his friend. “I wish I conld 6ing for you,” she said, and her little hands flew together. “Do yon wish to sing?”
