Oar telegraphic despatches announce
that, upon the arrival of the railroad tain
at Philadelphia front New York yesterday
morning, the United States Marshal for
that district, assisted hy its officers, seized
three thousand copies of the New 1 oik
Daily News intended for that city, and
that its sale in Philadelphia and through
out the Southwest has been, hy order of
the Administration, suppressed.
As to the special reasons which have in
duced this arbitrary act of the Executive
Government of the United States, we have
as yet no definite intelligence. Our read
ers will cheerfully hear us witness that
the Daily News, at least since its publica
tions under present auspices, has contain
ed no word in violation of the Constitu
tion or the Jaws. It has committed no
crime, and has not abetted or sympathized
with crime. It has abused no privilege as
a free press. It has violated no courtesy
to the Government or to any of its officers
by the publication of military facts. It
has disarmed even malicious criticism, by
furnishing to the public only such informa
tion relating to the present crisis as has ap
peared in journals enjoying the patronage
and confidence of the Cabinet at Wash
ing. Its columns have contained no word,
for which even those most hostile to our
opinions could justly reprove or reproach
us. If it has erred, the error lias been
upon the part of humanity and free gov
ernment. It lias met the demands of the
crisis firmly and fearlessly, yet always
courteously and temperately. It has
spoken of" the President and his Cabinet
and of their friends upon all occasions
onlv in terms rigorously and studiedly
respectful. While mobs have been insti
gated against us hy a vitiated rival Press,
and the mother tongue exhausted upon us
in coarse abuse and in misrepresentations
of our sympathies and our motives, we
have replied only by silence, or in a spirit
of candor and moderation which the con
sciousness of our solemn responsibility in
an hour of danger to civil liberty could
alone inspire. Our sole offence—if oflence
it be—is, that we have fearlessly asserted
and exercised the right which the Consti
tution lias guaranteed to us, in war, as
well as in peace, to oppose, not the Gov
ernment, but the policy of the national
Administration. If we may not do this,
then are we indeed slaves, in bonds more
bard to bear than were ever rivetted upon
the limbs of any man within whose veins
flows Anglo-Saxon blood.
To many thousands of our usual daily
readers, the Daily News is, from this day
a sealed book. The heavy hand of Exe
cutive power falls, not upon us, hut upon
millions of people horn to freedom. 1 hose
will think still, though they cannot read.
It is difficult to bind the mind in chains.
Thought, at least, cannot he suppressed.
No Austrian dungeons can restrain the
human will. Those to whom the Daily
News is forbidden will think, reason, re
solve and act still.
While we, feel that the most sacred of
the private and public rights which an
American citizens may enjoy have been
violated in pure wantonness, we record
the fact and our protest against it more in
sorrow than surprise. It is but one. more
millstone in the nation’s downward road.
Ii is but one new signal light to wake and
warn a slumbering people to a realization
of their duty and their threatened fate.
We shall endeavor manfully to hear our
part of the fortunes of the storm—prudent
ly, we trust, but unflinchingly ; and until
the pen is wrenched from our hand one
press, at least, in New Y ork shall dare to
be free, and to speak without a permit
from the hand of arbitrary power.
IapdrMBl tram Arizona—Erection af »
PrariBinunl Uairrnmenl.
We have important intelligence from
Arizona. Immediately after his victory
and capture of Fort Fillmore, Colonel
Baylor declared possession of Arizona in
behalf of the Confederate States, and in
augurated a Provisional Government, to
exist until otherwise provided by the Con
federate Congress. The following is a por
tion of his proclamation :
TO THE PEOPLE OF THE TERRITORY OF
ARIZONA.
The social and political condition of Ar
izona being little short of general anarchy,
and the people being literally* destitute of
law, order and protection, the said Terri
tory, from the date hereof, is hereby de
clared temporarily organized as a Military
Government, until such time as Congress
may otherwise provide.
I, John 11. IJaylor, Lieut. Col. com
manding the Confederate Army in the
Territory of Arizona, hereby take posses
sion of the said Territory in the name and
behalf of the Confederate States of Amer
ica.
For all these purposes herein specified,
and until otherwise decreed or provided,
the Territory of Arizona shall comprise all
that portion of the recent Territory of
New Mexico lying south of the 34th par- -
allel of north latitude.
All officers, both civil and military,
heretofore existing in this Territory, eith
er under the laws of the late United
| States, or the Territory of New Mexico,
are hereby declared vacant, and from
the date hereof shall forever cease to
exist.
That the people of this Territory may en
joy the full benefits of law, older and pro
tection, and, as far as possible, the bless
ings and advantages of a free goveniinent.it
is hereby decreed that the laws and enact
ments existing in this Territory prior to
the date of this proclamation, and consist
ent with the Constitution and laws of the
Confederate States of America, and the
provisions of this decree, shall continue in
full force and effect, without interruption,
until such time as the Confederate Con
gress may otherwise provide.
The said Territory, from the date here
of, is hereby declared temporarily* organi
zed under a' military government, un
til such time as Congress shall otherwise
provide.
The two Governments shall be di
vided into two separate and distinct de
partments, to wit : the executive and ju
dicial.
The Executive authority of this Ter
ritory shall be vested in the Com
mandant of the Confederate Army of Ar
izona.
The judicial power of this Territory
shall be vested in a Supreme Court, two
District Courts, two Probate Courts and a
Justice of the Peace, together with such
municipal and other inferior courts as the
wants of the people may, from time to
time, require.

The Administration decided to-day to
take another step, which will he quite as
startling at first as the former, hut which is
equally founded on sound policy. The
Constitution provides for the freedom of
speech and of the press. But it also pro
vides for the privileges of the writ of ha
beas corpus. It has been found that the
safety of the Republic required the sus
pension of that writ. The Administration
is now satisfied that the safety* of the Re
public requires that those papers in the
North which do not yield a hearty support
to the Government and to all the meas
ures of the Administration, and which, by
their sympathy with the South, nourish
at the North a hostile feeling against the
Government, shall be warned to desist,
and if they persist, shall be suppressed.
Attorney General Bates has been consult
ed on the subject, and says that the Gov
ernment would he perfectly justified in
doing so.

A planter informs us that not only the
squares and blooms, but many young bolls,
are falling from the cotten plant. The
extraordinary rains that have fallen during
the last two weeks have certainly greatly-
curtailed the amount of cotten that would
otherwise have been gathered in Sept.,
and probably have materially injured the
general crop.
Another loss—and a very* considerable
one—is that of the fodder crop. The rainy
season caught most farmers pulling their
fodder, and lasted so long that those who
had not pulled cannot now gather good
provender. The scarcity* of both corn
and fodder the present year has compelled
farmers to use most of their oats and other
early* provender, and the loss of the fod
der now cannot he to any extent supplied,
as heretofore, hy Northern and Western
hay. A friend suggest as a partial reme
dy, that every planter save of millet seed
and plant it next spring for early feed.
When only a few inches high it can be
cut, and will continue to grow fast and
luxuriantly though cut at intervals
throughout the season. YVe would add to
this a suggestion heretofore made, that
every fanner save the crab grass this fail.
It is already* growing very* fast since the
rains, and will he abundant and luxuiant.
A gentleman who fed with it last year in
forms us that he prefers it to fodder
or Northern hay as food for horses, and its
excellence as provender for cattle is attes
ted by many. There will certainly* be
enough to make up four-fold for the loss
of fodder, and it can be gathered by those
capable of doing but little other service
in the field than the gathering of grass or
cotton.—Columbus Times.

A Nntioiin! Army to be Organized.
A new era has dawned. The recent or
der of the War Department, ordering to
Washington all the regiments now organ
ized in the Northern States, and all parts
of regiments, even if unarmed and without
uniforms, is but one step in the ue*.v order
of things that has been inaugurated here
since the adjournment of Congress. That
step will result in the formation of a Na
tional Army. The men, as they arrive
here, will be formed into companies and
regiments irrespective of States from
which they come. They will be armed
and uniformed alike—the uniform being
the army regulation dress of blue cloth.
A new nomenclature will be adopted, dis
carding the names of States, and referring
only to the position which the respective
regiments will occupy in the Grand Army
of the United States.
The city of Mesilia is hereby designa
ted as the seat of Government of this Ter
ritory*.
All territorial officers, before entering
upon their official duties, shall take an
oath or affiimation to support the Constitu
tion and laws of the Confederate States
and of this Territory, and faithfully to
discharge the duties incumbent upon
them.
1 he Bill of Rights of the Territory of
New Mexico, so far as consistent with the
Constitution and laws of the Confederate
States and the provisions of this decree,
are hereby* declared in full force and eflect
in the Territory of Arizona.
Given under my* hand, at Mesilia, this
1st day of August, 1861.
JNO. R. BAYLOR,
Lieut. Col. Com. Mounted Rifles, C. S. A.
The press of Arizona approve the ac
tion of Col. Baylor. The Mesilia Times
says :
Y’lie effect of this proclamation will be
to give us relief from the numerous obsta
cles which have surrounded us. The
rights and privileges for which we have so
long petitioned, and which have been so
repeatedly denied us by the Federal Con
gress, has been afforded us by this simple
act. Y\ e can by this authority immediate
ly commence the solid foundation of a
State, enjoy the security of certain protec
tion and support from the law, secure that
individuality* of the nation which our ex
tent and manifold resources demand, and
initiate a golden era of prosperty, piety
and happiness. Our star is now most
brilliantly* in the ascendant; our fondest
hope and anticipation are on the eve of be
ing realized. Let each of us put our
shoulder to the wheel of progress, and suc
cor and support by* every exertion these
great movements which will give us a hap
py, peaceful, substantial greatness.
\\ e also get by* our advices some inter
esting intelligence of the military* forces in
that country*.
The United States forces in New Mex
ico were tbirty-six companies—fourteen
mounted and twenty-two foot. Of these,
eleven have been taken prisoners, and four
others are in the power cf the Southern
forces, leaving twelve infantry and nine
mounted at large. About half of these are
at Fort Staunton, Craig and Alberquer-
que, and the remainder, are scattered at
different points a hundred miles apart,
and distant from the Arizona frontier.—
A Confederate force has gone to attack
Forts YVise and Garland, and a few weeks
will probably show a capture of the whole
force of this department. Their supplies
from the United States are already cut
off'.
The confidential orders to Major Lynde
from the commander of the Department of
New Mexico are in substance, that the
whole regular force of the department had
been ordered to the States. All the Ari
zona forts are to he abandoned except Fort
Staunton, which was to be garrisoned by
two companies of volunteers. The Gov
ernment! property was to be sold, care be
ing taken *hat nothing should fall into the
hands o|'the Texans or disaffected citizens
of the Terri ory. The garrison at Fort
Fillmoi’j v.as to remain long enough to
cover tl.e withdrawal of the troops from
Western Arizona, when it was to be aban
doned, the force to march oift by way of
Forts Craig and Staunton, prepared to re
sist all attacks.
The United States troops have aban
doned YY estern Arizona, destroying Fort
Breckinridge and the stores at that point,
a large amount of grain and provisions at
Tucson Mills, together with the buildings,
1* ort Buchanan and all its contents, and
other property, amounting in the aggregate
to half a million of dollars.
The l nited States officers taken at the
surrender of San Augustine Springs were
Major Isaac Lynde, commanding; Cap
tain Joseph U. Fatter, M. R. Stevenson,
Alfred Gibbs; 1st Lieutenants, F. Ryan,
David Hancock. Edward J. Brooks, Chas.
B. Stivors, A. H. Pluner, C. YY r . McHally;
2nd Lieutenants, F. J. Crilly, Edward L.
Cressy; Assistant Surgeons J. C. McKee,
C. H. Alden.
They had all been paroled, and were to
leave hy way of Santa Fe.
r I he following is a list of commissary
stores captured at Fort Fillmore, in part7
as shown by the Quartermaster’s Books :
Fifty-four head beef cattle, 4,308 lbs.
flour, 663 pounds rice, C,160 pounds Rio
coflee, 588 gallons vinegar, 325 pounds
tea, 2,246 pounds soap, 18,046 pound bay,
900 pounds bacon, 156 barrels beans, 1
273 pounds vegetables, 7,857 pounds su
gar, 1,234 pounds star candles. 305 pounds
sperm candles, 275 boxes soap.
In addition to this, there is an immense
amount of corn and barley. Two hundred
and seventy head of cattle, sent from l - ort
Craig, arrived just in time to be included
in the surrender. It will he seen that our
boys have taken food and forage for them-
seves and their animals sufficient for sever
al months.
’l’lie massacre of the mail party at
Cook’s Springs is represented to have been
a most desperate affair. It appears the
Indians, one hundred in number, first suc
ceeded in stampeding the mules—the
coach was upset, and the mules ran oft.
The mail party secured their arms and re
treated to a hill, where they built a small
rock wall. The fight appears to have last
ed two days. All about this wall_thc
ground was strewed with battered bullets.
Every rock and stone within many yards
which could have partially secreted an
Indian had bullets lying near. One
small tree, some hundred and fifty yards
from the wall, had the marks of eleven
balls on it. The horrors and sufferings
which these men must have undergone is
inexpressible. Nearly all had their arms
broken. All were wounded in the arms
and shot through the head. Four ot the
bodies were found within the wall, one
in front of it, and two some fifty yards in
the rear.

Fort Hatteras was surrendered to the Federal
authorities at about 11 o’clock ou yesterday.
Thursday.
The sieamer Winslow, which left there soon af
ter the surrender on yesterday, arrived here about
10 o’clock last night.
She brought up nine wounded men and one
dead body. From Lieut. Citizen, of Captain
Lamb's company, who escaped and camo up, we
gathered the following particlars :
The Federal steamers, eleven in number, com
menced the bombardment on Wednesday, and the
Forts. Claik ana Hatteras, returned tha tire, it
was kept up till dark with hut little loss on our
side. Oil yesterday morning the conflict was re
newed and continued till about J1 o’clock, when,
after a desperate resistance, our forces were com
pelled to surrender, and the whole garrison are
now heid as prisoners: save a few who escaped.
Com. Baron, Col. Bradford, Col. Martin, Lt.
Co!. Johnson, Major Gilliam, Major Andrews,
and ali the Captains of the post are prisoners.
Our entire force at Hatteras, on Wednesday
night, another gentleman informed us, was 8f>3.
Some few escaped, perhaps 50 or more, and Lt
Citizen thinks not more than 60 were killed and
wounded. Probably 40 killed and 20 wounded.
He remained in the Fort till half au hour previous
to its surrender, and from the lucid manner in
which his statements were made we have great
• mtidenee in them.
The Federal fleet consisted of eleven steamers,
four ol which were large war steamers. The
bombardment is represented by our iutormers as
most terrific.
Lt. Knight and Lt. Murdoch, were brought up
wounded; Knight slightly in the arm, and Mur
doch with bis arm badly injured. Probably am
putation will be necessary. The dead body of a
Mr. Tindell, we believe, irom Lenoir, was brought
U P* .
The news is sad and we can give no more tins
morning. We will give particlars hereafter as
they reach us.
Lt. Citizen says our men fought bravely until
they were compelled to surrender, anti the deieai
to our arms is only to be attributed to the superi
ority of the fleet over our batteries. The ammu
nition gave out at Fort Claik on Wednesday and
the guns were spiked and abandoned, but Fort
Hatteras returned the fire of the Federals till II
or after yesterday.

[From the Baltimore Exchange of Saturday.]
The “enforcement of the laws” is get
ting on famously. The seed sown by Mr.
Eieretthas fallen in fertile places, and
sprung up to its natural fruit. The over
throw of the law, by the constituted au
thorities of the Government, has been fol
lowed, naturally enough, by similar patri
otic demonstrations on the part of the
Northern people. In Pennsylvania they
are having a delightful time of it. News
paper offices are “gutted” as the term is;
with great success, hy “loyal” multitudes.
Congressmen are burnt in effigy, in the
most creditable and satisfactory way. In
Maine and New Hampshire they are not
behind band. In Massachusetts, where
they always do such things best, and where
the influence of Mr. Everett’s eloquent
precepts is likely to be greatest, because
of bis proximity, they add tarring and
feathering, and riding on a rail, to the list
of their efforts in behalf of the Union and
the Constitution. Nothing can surpass the
noble and generous patriotism with which
the citizens of Haverhill possessed them
selves cf the person of “the editor of a se
cession sheet,” (meaning an unhappy man,
who dared to oppose abolitionism and war)
covered him with “a coat of tar and feath
ers”—rode him on a rail through the town,

ate steamer Rainey has succeeded in running the

that a Federal steamer put chase after Iipt yes

Shipments of Linrom Tents, Munitions of IFar,

cille Railroad at Sight.—We learn from a re
liable source that on Thursday night last several
car loads of catnp equipage, tents, &c.. were con
veyed to St. Mary’s, on the Lebanon branch of
the Louisville and Nashville Railroad. We also
learn that on yesterday a large number of the hire
lings of King Lincoln, from Camp Dick Robinson
went over to St. Mary’s to receive the guns, and
they were busy all day repairing the bridge which
had been washed away by the late floods, and
succeeded in getting the arms across Rolling Fork,
from which place they will probably be carried to
the Abolition camp to day.
The citizens along the road have become justly
exasperated at the outrageous conduct of the Lin
coln authorities in sending guns into our State
to put into the hands of a foreign soldiery, who
will lay waste our beautiful fields and murder
our citizens. The people of Kentucky are di-
termined that this work for the subjugation oil
their noble State shall be carried on no longer, and
vigilance committees will be appointed, who will
search all trains passing, as is being done on the
Kentucky Central road. Any further attempt to
import Lincoln guns into our State will be anoth
er move to inaugurate civil war, as the honest
and sober thinking portion of our people are de
termined to resist it. [Louisville Courier, 24th.
Confederate CongieaN
Richmond, Sept. 1.—Congress adjourned
on Satuiday, at midnight, until the third
Monday in November, unless sooner con
vened by the President.
The annexed acts of Congress have been
approved by the President and made pub
lic:
An Act establishing the rates on news
papers and periodicals sent to dealers
through the Express companies. The rates
are the same as those paid by regular sub
scribers when transmitted through the
mails.
An Act requiring Post-masters to re
ceive Treasury note in sums of live dollars
and upwards for stamped envelopes.
An Act for the sequestration of the es
tates, property and effects of alien enemies
and for the indemnity of citizens of the
Confederate States and persons aiding the
same in the existing war. The preamble
of this act says:—“Whereas, the Gov
ernment and people of the United States
have departed from the usage of civilized
warfare in confiscating and destroying the
property of the people of the Confederate
State, of all kinds, whether used for mili-
nnd then compelled him to make recanta
tion of his opinions, on his knees, in the
midst of brutal and horrible imprecations
and indignities. ‘ I am sorry,” the wretch
ed victim was made to say, "‘that I have
published what I have, and I promise that
I will never again write or publish articles
against the North, or in favor of seces
sion!” YY’hat a triumph of reason and free
institutions! What a glorious record for
history! YY’liat a reductive, appeal to our
benighted Southern brethren, to re-unite
themselves with the freedom and civiliza
tion, from which bad men have persuaded
them, in an evil hour, to tear themselves
away! How it reminds one of the joyous
days of Massachusetts Colony, described
with soanuch unction hy the reverened
Ylinister oflpswhich, when they “did burn
and slay” the Pequods and Narragansetts
in their wigwams, ‘by the goodness of God!’
How it smacks of the blessed times when
old women were forced to sign a confession
that they were witches; and then were
drowned or hanged for their pains; when
Quakers were whipped and branded, and
had their ears cut off', ns a merciful pre
paration for the scaffold! How naturally
“pernicious” editors assume the place of
‘Devil-ridden’ hags and ‘notorious heretics.
How the blood of the Mathers and the YY’in-
throps vindicates the purity of its descent!
Upon the heads of such men as Everett
and those who unite with him in his cru
sade against freedom of opinion and speech
is the sin and the shame of such outrages.
Upon their heads must fall the retribution
also. Who, that tells a people “the laws
are silent amid arms,” lias any right to
complain of their taking him at his word/
If the laws are silent, why shall the mob at
Haverhill, Concord, Bangor or Easton,
bear them any more than the Cabinet at
YY^ashington? If the laws sleep at all, they
are awake to no man. If they are silent at
all, they are silent altogether. If the Pre
sident may suppress a public journal, with
out color of law, because it does not suit
him, why shall the people, who are sover
eign, not do the same tiling] The question
between bayonets and bludgeons is one of
detail, and not of principle—so is it be
tween tar and feather 1 ; and Fort Lafayette.
Nay, the mob have rather the advantage,
if there be any, in the reasoning. If it be
patriotic to suspend the laws, they are apt
to be less selfish in their patriotism than
their rulers. A President or a Secretary
may readily mistake a wound to his self-
love, for a wound inflicted on the country.
A mob, if morefanatic.il and mad, is not
likely to he so personal or so self-seeking.
Only two days ago the Federal telegrams
informed us, under official inspiration at
YY^ashington, that ‘the severe strictures of
the Northern newspapers upon members of
the Cabinet are regarded there as attacks
on the country.’ ‘L'etat, e'est mail' said the
Grand Monarch, ‘The State! it is myself.’
Attacks upon ns—say the members of the
Cabinet—are attacks upon the country!—
YVe are the country! A mob might be wick
ed enough to do anj thing—it could not be
so absurd or so regal as to say this. Its ef
fervescences are madness—the tyranny of
Presidents and Cabinets is system, The
sins of the multitude are ignorance and
passion—those or rulers are ambition and
lust of power. The leader of a mob which
destroys a printing office and lynches an
editor in its rage, is not half so unprinci
pled or dangerous, as the President or the
General who silences free speech with a
squad of soldiers, in armed and deliberate
defiance of the Constitution. Tenfold wosre
than either is the rhetorical, phrase-polish
ing demagogue, who, safe in his study,
without personal risk or official responsi
bility, prostitutes his talents to the over
throw of public freedom and the corrup
tion or a people who look up to him as a
patriot and a counsellor.
Army af the Potomac.—The Richmond
Dispatch, of Monday, says :
For some days our army under Generals
Johnston and Beauregard has been get
ting into close quarters with the enemy.
Advanced detachments have had sharp
skirmishing, in which there has been a con
siderable number killed and wounded,
(fewer on our side than that of the enemy,)
and we have a few prisoners. YVe have
gained several important positions—espe
cially one which is understood to command
Arlington. The enemy will soon have to
make up his mind to fight a serious battle
or retreat across the Potomac, YVe may
therefore look daily for stirring events.
YVe know what our officers and men can
do, and we suppose there is nobody here
who doubts what the result will be when
the expected collision takes place.

A meeting of the citizens of Crawford

upon responding to the call, said that can
dor required of him to say in advance,
that if the decision was in favor of send
ing delegates to the Convention, he should
vacate the chair; that he was opposed it
as things now stand; that he thought it best
to decline the chair.
YVhereupon it was insisted that the
question “shall we be represented in said
Convention,” should he put.
The chairman put the question, when
a large majority voted in the negative—
refusing to be represented in the Conven

G. P. CULYERHOUSE, Ch’mn.
September 2d 1801.
The common impression in Richmond
and among military men seems to be that
we are on the very threshold of the most
stirring events. Everything seems to in
dicate this, and it is said that a forward
movement is to be made all along our lines
in Eastern and YVestern Y’irginia. This
of course is only report, rumor, but it de
rives confirmation from the actual position
and recent movements on both sides. YY T hen
Beauregar ? and McClellan try themselves
in the tug of war, they will both we may
be sure, bring into action all the resources
of their skill, strategy and indurance.
Neither, in this great drama, will Lee or
Johnston bear any . surbordinate part
The great field of Western Virginia is
well worthy of the first soldier in America
and it may be Johnston’s proud duty to
first cross the Potomac and roll the war-
cloud back towards the Susquehana. Soon
may that day come when free Maryland
shall rise np to take her true position.
The last few months have worked a great
change in Maryland. That State, at the
beginning of this difficulty would have
clung to the Union. Y\ r e believe, if left
to themselves, a majority of her people
would have voted against secession, fearing
to be made, as a frontier State, the battle
ground of contending armies. The brutal
tyranny of Lincoln’s government has
changed all this. Even Northern Mary
land is now secessionist in feeling. All of
manhood in every Maryland bosom rises
up against submission to such despotism.
Maryland is ripe now for revolution—she
wants but arms ami a Confederate force
around which to rally.
Missouri was once a Union State, but it
was a State. The missions of Lincolnism
very nearly succeeded for a time, in redu
cing Ylissouri to the position of a conquer
ed province. They over-did the thing
Missouri is now a secession State—she
goes witji the Confederacy by a decided
majority. John C. Fremont cannot now
over-awe her people—he only exasperates
them—the miserable ungrateful hound that
he is. Albert Sidney Johnstone has got
to New Orleans, and will soon he at work
in the YY’est. The “Pathfinder” will have
to make tracks from the presence of a gen
nine Man.
Ntnte Convention.
YYe publish the proceedings of the meet
ing held in thi^ place on Thursday last,
to appoint delegates to the State. Conven
tion. An officer of the meeting informs
us that there were about thirty persons in
attendance. The delegates appointed are
highly respectable gentlemen, but have
authority to represent the People of Clarke
county in Con volition ] YVe have ten or
eleven hundred voters. We shall not say
that the thousand men who failed to attend
the primary meeting were all opposed to
the Convention; hut we do hold that the
delegates are only authorized to represent
the thirty in attendance—that the action
of the Convention cannot hind the thou
sand who were not there—and that those
of us who stayed away are perfectly free
to adopt or reject the recommendations of
that body.—Southern Watchman.
The* Grorgia Gnnniakrrx' Convention.
This body assembled in Atlanta, Ga., on
Thursday last. E. H. Walker, Esq., of
Monroe, was chosen Chairman, and YV. J.
Camp, Esq., of Covington, Secretary.
The Chairman stated that the object of
the meeting was supposed to be to supply
the deficiency in arms in the State, and to
see who were prepared to manufacture
arms, in what quantities, and at what
prices.
Thomas Sumner, of the Georgia Rail
road Machine Shop, in this city, represen
ted Augusta.
Gen. YY’ayne; and Governor Brown,
were present, and conferred with the
members of the Convention in the object
of its assembling.
After considerable discussion and con
versation, the Governor proposed to give
816 for each gun manufactured, and bind
the State to the contract to the bargain, as
far as the Executive could; and further,
that he would, for the first two months,
give 817 for each gun.
Mr. Newton, of Athens, stated that he
and a few others, were about to start an
armory in Athens, and that he had come
here to consult with experienced workmen
on the subject. One gunmaker had told
him that the guns could be completed for
812.25 each, after the rough barrel was fur
nished; but several others said it could not
be done.
The Atlanta Southern Confederacy,
from the full report in which journal we
condense the above, countinues :
A motion was then made that the state
ment of Mr. Newton, and the proposition
of the Governor be adopted and agreed to
by the Convention, which was unanimous
ly adopted.
YY’liereupon the Convention adjourned
sine die.
The work will be commenced in the
State Road Shop at once, and soon guns
will he manufactured after the Harper’s
Ferry Rifle pattern.—Constitutionalist.

The Hessian Loss at the Battle of Oak

tributes the low estimate' to the modesty
of the General, and asserts that a number
of reliable persons yvlto were on the field
all agree in placing the killed at not less
1500. The times Times adds: “H. Specht,
an honest German of this place, belonging
to the Belle Poiut Guards, who returned
home yesterday, says he was on the field
until four o’clock on the day ofthe battle,
and was all over it since. He says that
for two and one half miles the bodies were
strewn thick, and in some places lying in
heaps. He estimates the loss at between
1500 and 2000. The Federalists repor
ted between 3000 and 4000 missing at roll
call.
The Times also says that the Hessians
ieft most of their dead unburied after the
battle of Oak Hill. It states that there
are now hundreds of bodies lying un-
bnried in a putrid state, so that it is im
possible to breathe pure air within fire
miles of the battle-field.
