Affectionately and fraternally, EDYYARD FONTAINE. A Conquered South—Designs of our Ene lilies. A clergyman, the captain of a company at the battle of Manassas, who fought gal lantly and whose son fell by his side, in a letter dated at Jackson, Miss., March 6th. to the Raleigh Church Intelligencer, gives the following picture of the design of the enemy in the event of the subjugation of the South : I have clearly foreseen from the begin ning of this strife the design of our ene mies. I fear too many of our citizens do not understand the ultimate aim of their policy. They are determined to make these States, Territories of the Union.— The lands of our citizens will be confisca ted, and made the property of the Govern ment. Union men will, perhaps, be per mitted to occupy a portion of their own lands as pre-emptioners. The slaves will be declared Iree, but they will not be lib erated for many years ; but be worked by government agents upon government lands and the proceeds of their labor will belong to the government. All shops and manufacto ries whatever can make an axe, a shoe or a thread—whatever will compete with North ern manufactories will be utterly destroy ed. The good Union men of the South will be made as absolutely dependent upon the North as the Isrelites were upon their Philistine masters when they were compelled to go to Gaza and Ashdod to have their hoes and axes sharpened. Like the poor Israelites they will not be per mitted to make nor to own any weapon of war for self defence. Northern soldiers will be garrisoned in every town and neighborhood to keep the slaves and their loyal masters quiet. The whole South will bo worked as a sugar and cotton mine to enrich the North , and only so much will bo produced as the North can monop olize. Ultimately the superfluous slaves will be shipped to Africa, the Isthmus, or else where ; and their places supplied with w hite slaves of Dutch or Irish descent: whose cultivation of cotton will be called “free labor,” and thus the “new South” will be established. But before this can be effected, a first 6tep must be taken, af ter every Southern city shall have follow ed the humiliating example of Nashville, in which no Jackson was martyred in de fending his country’s flag. Until the subjn- gat ion is complete, this Abaddon will con ceal his policy. Property will be respected as it was at Edenton, and Florence. The cat will purr to lull the mouse. 'I he ser pent will conceal his fangs, and display his glittering spots to charm his prey. Cow ardly and selfish fools, will be deceived and bought with “coffee at ten cents pet- pound,” and sell their liberty for Yankee gold. Then the first bold step will be taken to establish the “new South ;” and that will be, to give to every man who Las voted, or spoken, or fought for the Confed eracy, or held any office under it’s author ity, the choice of death or exile. The few who are pardoned, with all the wives, daughters, and children of “rebels,” will be turned out of doors ; to live as gipsey- iug beggars, or to 6tarve. Such is the 6atanic design of Seward and Lincoln, his “cat’s paw,” aud their Government; as it is clearly indicated by alltbeir acts, and openly avowed. Let your readers understand it, and if one drop of patriot blood flows in the veins of the weakest and most timid of them all, he surely will excuse me, a minister of the Gospel, for unsheathing my sword and de- claring solemnly before the throne, of God, whose I am and whom I serve, that I nev er will return it to the scabbard until my country is saved from its threatened doom. I fervently pray that I may live to gath- C.npniii.1, .f Cnu.ra—Tke Difficult? mad Remedy. Since the ladies of the city, have patri otically stripped their houses of brass or naments and useful articles of the same metal for casting cannon, it may be well enough to state that such material on ac count of its softness, is unfit for the pur pose, and is so pronounced by a gentle man connected with the ordnance depart ment of the Columbus Iron YYorks. He states however, that the difficulty can be remedied by making up in size what the gun lacks in strength. A disadvantage we labor under is the want of block tin, the ordinary domestic tin being of no value whatever, in the composition of cannon, which are made of copper and tin. There is no lack of cop per, any quantity of which may be obtain ed at the DucktoWn Mines, Tennessee, and other localities, whereas the block tin is very scarce. YYe are informed that the deficiency of the latter mpy bo supplied by bell-metal, which is a mixture of cop per and tin, and can be combined with copper in such proportions as will form a good amalgam for moulding into cannon. It seems then that the dear old Church bells which have been consecrated to God, and whose mellow tones have so often sum moned us to His house and l-ecalled sad and pleasant associations of years gone by, must be surrendered and devoted to the achievement of our liberty and independ ence. It is the dernier resort, but will prove to our enemies and the world, the sincerity and unconquerable spirit of the South, and that her people are “terribly in earnest-” YVith a sufficiency of bell-metal con stantly on hand, the Columbus Iron YVorkshave facilities for turning out six cannon per week. We hope it will be supplied at once.—Sun. Yankee Traders in Nashville.—YVe learn that large stocks of goods were sent to Nashville by northern merchants, who want to do a little trading while the army does tho fighting. A telegram in the St. Louis Republican from Cairo, March 14th says: The G. YV. Graham has just arrived from Nashville. Everything is quiet there. Tho traders that went there are disappoint ed, as the citizens have nothing but Ten nessee and Georgia money to ‘buy goods with, which they of course refuse to take. A dispatch to ihe associated presf, North, of the same date, says: The steamer Graham returned this after noon from Nashville. Y'ery few, if any, of the St, Louis merchants who went on her to Nashville, were satisfied with the result. Some of them sold their goods at a sacrifice, so as to return on the same boat, while others unwillingly remained, in order, if possible, to effect sales at better prices. Specie and bills of the banks in loyal States are scarce, but nearly every shopkeeper is getting daily an amount of United States Treasury notes, which they are already eager to secure. Anx ious inquiries were made for cotton, tur pentine, rosin, etc,, for which specie would have been given, but nothing of the kind could be had, except about two hun dred bales of cotton, which a resident of Nashville shipped on his own account per steamer Madison. Southern bank bills, especially those of Tennessee, were abun dant, but the people of Nashville are being rapidly convinced of the worthlessness of thatpaper. Some of the merchants have ordered goods from Loaisville, Cincinnati, and probobly other cities. The steamer Gra ham brought back a portion of the goods she took in Nashville. She left the La crosse at Paducah, bound to Nashville. The Adriatic, the first arrival at Nashville with goods from St. Louis, is due on her return trip, and is probably bringing back a portion of her cargo. “I he currency is not the only or even the chief difficulty encountered by the “traders.” Our information is, that the peeple of Nashville roundly refused to buy the wares of their would-he masters and that maay of the goods had been resbipped to the North. The people of the United States will discover some of these days, that the (Southern poople cannot be bought with a mess of pottage.—Memphis Appeal. An Incident in Cincinnatti.—The abo litionists in Cincinnati desecrated the 22d of February by what they called a cele bration and illumination. Mrs. Dickerson, (a true Southern woman notwithstanding she is the wife of Capt. Dickerson a Quar termaster in the Federal army,) which was boarding at the Burnett House, decli ned, in the absence of her husband, to per mit the windows in her room to be illumin ated. For this she was denounced as a .“secesher” and grossly insulted by Mr. Johnson, a clerk of the house and Mr. Barbour a boarder. Indignant at thisinfa- moHs aud nnmauly treatment: Mrs. Dick erson immediately left the Burnett House and sought the protection of a friend who resided near the city. YVhen Capt Dick erson returned and was made acquainted with the circumstances, he inflicted sum mary chastisement on both Johnson and Barbour, damaging the frontspiece of the latter individual quite seriously, and bunging both of his peepers in the most artistic style. For this he was brought before the police court, and pleading guil ty, he was fined $25 for assault and bat- terj', which he cheerfully paid. Gen. Grant and his staff visited Nash ville, and called upon Mrs. James K. Polk, Of the interview a Yankee writer says :— She received her visitors courteously, but with a polished coldness that indicated sufficiently in which direction her sympa thies ran—she was simply polite and la dylike; in no case patriotic. YVhile she discreetly forebore to give utterance to any expression of sympathy for the South, 6he as rigidly avoided saying anything that might be construed into a wish forthe suc cess of the government. She hoped, she said, that the tomb of her husband would protect her household from insult and her property from pillage; further than this she expected nothing from the United States and desired nothing. Female Purity.—All the influence which women enjoy in society—their right to the exercise of that material care which forms the first and most indelible species of edu cation: the wholesale restraint which they posess over the possions of making; their power of protecting ns when young, and cheering us when old, depend so entirely on their personal purity, and the charm which it casts around them, that to insinu ate a doubt of its real value is willfully to remove the broadest corner stone on which civil society rests, with all its comforts.
