General Bras? and the Press. Headquakters Department No, 2, j Office of Inspector General, f August 55, 18(52. \ To the Editor of the. Montgomery Adverti ser: . Sir: xonr letter on the 2<1 inst. has been referred to me by the General command ing. 1 our correspondent was arrested for a gross violation of well known rnles in all armiea not to declare to the enemy tb movement of troops. It is well ascertained that the enemy receive your paper and others regularly, and by that mcai s arc kept constantly advised of our operation*. As long as you confined yourselves to per sonal abuse and detraction, though false and malignant (see your article on the relief of Gerf. .Beauregard by Gen. Bragg, charging collisions between the lat ter and the War Department), Gen. Bragg cared nothing for it. But when you as sail our cause, and expose our plans to the enemy, it becomes liis duty to interfere and you may rest assured he will do it, re gardless of the support you have in the Cabinet. I am. very respectfully, Your obedient servant, Jas- E. Slaughter. Brig- and A. A. Inspector General. Advertiser Office, » Montgomery, Aug, 11, 18(52. ) Gen. Braxton Brags. Dear Sir: Your letter of the 8th through Brigadier-Genera! Slaughter, lias been received. Allow me to say that, the arrest of our correspondent, on pretence of giving in formation to the enemy, can only be re garded by all free thinking men as anoth er exhibition of that petty tyranny and vindictiveness for which you have gained an unenviable notoriety. No one doubts the correctness of the iule of the army not to give irformation to the enemy, bui all will question its application to this case. 'J'he necessary inference from your words is that Wallace Screws is a spy and that the people in the heart of the South, for whose information be was wri ting, are enemies to the country. The pub lic will spurn both of these imputations as unworthy of the position you occupy and the struggle in which we are engaged. The offence of our correspondent, if offence it may be called in repeating vague and un certain reports about the movements of ycur troops, is not so grave an offence as that previously committed by yourself in in authorizing the publication of a des patch that your army was on the move. Here is a dispatch which appeared in our columns July 25th, by order of General Bragg. “Mobile, July 24. “There lias been unusual activity at Tupelo with in the past few days- 1'he grand army under command of Gen. Bragg is on the move, and the loyal people ot Memphis may soon have occasion to re joice. One or more divisions will pass through here in a day or two rn route East. I was not in the office at. night when this despatch came, or we should not have published it. Every body I met on the street was surprised that such a piece of information should be given an opportuni ty to go to the enemy. On inquiry, how ever, 1 was informed that the telegraph operator at this place bad at first rOTused to receive the despatch, but was assured from Mobile it was by Gen. Bragg’s order. Now no impartial man can read that des patch and then read the following extract from the letter of our correspondent, pub lished July 20th, to which it is understood you take exception, without ascribing more guilt to you than to him, if your move ments were made known. “It is reported that a portion of Bragg’s men came in to day, and that large num bers are on the way.” This report, it should he recollected, is stated in the middle of a Ion this pretension is, that whenever General Bragg gets ready to interfere with me or my paper, for the free criticism of men or measures, I will very quickly test the ques tion whether we are living under a repub lican government or military despotism. General Bragg perhaps forgets, or in the ardor of his ambition to be made railjtary dictator, he may be “regardless” of the fact, that the right of habeas corpus, and nf trial by jury, still exists in this country He may imagine that he is developing something of Jacksonianism by substitu ting his will tor the regulations of the ar my, hut if he will examine the record he will find that Jackson disregarded the civ il autnortv hut once—that was in a plain case, of military necessity and when the occasion had passed, he quietly give him self t:p. It would be wise for weaker minds not to venture to do as a rule what Jackson did as an exception. T he allusion of Gen. Bragg to the Cab inet is entirely gratuitous and uncalled tor, no reference having been made to it direct ly or indirectly in my previous letter. I am not in the habit, as is well known, of going to the Cabinet or any other body of men for my views. But after the mani festation of ill-temper and defiance which Gen. Bragg has thrown out, the country and the army will he thankful to him for the information, that there are men in the Cabinet who are not “regardless” of.the rights of freemen for which we are con tending. And if those in authority have even a small portion of the Constitution and laws for which tiiev are given credit; they will soon put a limit to your “little brief authority.” My dear sir, you have mistaken your opinion of yourself for great ness, and in this you are as wide of the mark as in attempting to substitute ser vility for discipline. Excuse me for the space which I have devoted to your note, as I really felt that 1 could not do the subject justice in any shorter compass. The time has come when military martinets must be exposed and denounced, or they will take charge of the country. I am sure that the lives and lib erties of citizens would be very unsafe at the mercy of such men, and therefore consider that I do the cause a timely ser vice in protesting against them. With respect, &c., Your obedient servant, Samuel G. IIeid. The Losses at Baton Rouge.—A i correspondent of the Mobile Tribune,! writing from Grenada under date of! August 12th, speaking of the losses! sustained at Baton Rouge by each at- : my, says : Our loss at Baton Rouge is now as certained to be about 2-50, including one Brigadier and three Colonels wounded. Col. Allen, of the 4 th Louis iana, is reported to have been reduced to the necessity of having both of his legs amputated, and will now probably not recover. The enemy lo.- f one Gen eral (Williams) and two Colonels.killed outright. They acknowledged, under a flag ot truce, received on the 10th inst., that their loss in men was about 1,000, Your readers can thus judge for them selves what is the nature and extent ol the victory that is claimed for our arms at Baton Rouge. Correspondence of the Atlanta Intelligencer. Knoxville, Aug. 28, 1862. It is a most difficult matter to obtain in formation that you confide in from a place not more distant from this point than Cum berland Gap, (fifty-seven miles). Officers of the army and couriers arrive here horn the Gap almost daily, yet the information j-ou derive from even, these sources one day, is very likely to be overthrown by the accounts you will receive from a similar source in the next twenty-four hours. Deserters are coming over to cur army A Word to Conscripts It has become fashionable to imag ine that there is something disgraceful in being a conscript, and the boys by the wayside consider that they have full license to scoff and jeer at an enrol led squad on its way to a camp of in struction. We award that unspeaka ble admiration and gratitude, which is his due, to the volunteer who so gallantly and spontaneously rushed to the battle field at the call of his coun try’s need ; but vve are not disposed to think that there are none among the conscripts who are not as brave and patriotic as he. There are many— who shall say not a major proportion 1 —among the conscripts whose hearts are as fully in their country’s cause, and who would as fearlessly battle tor it as any volunteer, but who have not engaged in the war simply for the reason that their private obligations and the necessities of their dependents, rendered it absolutely impossible for them to do so without sacrifices which they had no moral right.to make; and without reducing helpless persons looking to them for support to want and suffering. Their consciences would not allow them to abandon their individual obligations, and they felt that when their country imperious ly required their services, it wdultl call for them in such manner that they would be obliged to go, and all the responsibilities of abandoning what made them feel it necessary for them to stay at home until the last moment, would rest upon the govern ment, and not upon their consciences. Few voluntarily choose to endure the severe trials that they can make up their minds to bear cheerfully if obli ged to. We are reminded in this connection of Scott’s reference in “Marmion” to the feudal yeoman of Scotland, who i owed compulsory military service, in i his description of the gathering of the j Scottish army before the battle of j “Flodden.” “Sober he seemed, and of good cheer, As loth to leave his pottage dear. And march oti foreign strand; Or musing who would guide his steer To till the fallow land: Yet deem not in his thoughtful eye Did aught of dastard terror lie— More dreadful far his ire, Than theirs, who scorning danger’s name, In eager mood to battle came,” etc., etc, Such conscripts, and we are glad to believe that the majority of ours are such, well vindicate the name of con scripts on the battle field. The gal- j lant soldiers of France are all con scripts. It is an unpleasant feature! of conscription, however, that the good men in whose behalf we speak are in the same category with the cowards j and skulkers, and unpatriotic and dis-: loyal, who deserve the contempt, which has called down a shortsighted opprobrum upon the whole class of compulsory recruits, without except ion: But let the public constantly remember, that the conscripts are of three classes—those who would have gone to the war if they could ; those who would not go if they could, and those who could have gone and would not. There are thousands of con scripts who will prove before the war is over, that they are worthy to be the “comrades in battle” of our bravest volunteers. Walton—A. B. Whitehead, Harden Haygood.

Bragg’s dispatch we published by itself to the world uuder the telegraph head of nearly every city paper in Confederacy, where every-body’s atttention was at tracted to it.

This the thousands lions issued to the soldiers of the enemv is! from the camp near Richmond, relates “an incident that occurred a few eve nings since, which shows how keenly alive the soldier, though the creature of circumstances, is to the memories of home—how susceptible to the kindlier and better feelings of the heart W e were passing through a coppice of woods, when we came suddenly upon a sunny-haired little girl of some three summers, and a bright-eyed little boy apparently a little younger, reposing one cracker, and a small piece of beef a day.

Smith got in the rear of the enemy, a provision train of three hun dred wagons reached the Gap, and that the enemy have three weeks provis ion.

I return these terms to venture of Morgan through Kentucky. I ■ * ‘ * ’ think Morgan will be one of the principal actors, but the expedition will be or, a lar ger scale than his, and strike at a more im portant point than any he has visited. If not already terminated, it w-ill be consu- mated in two or three days, and we shall probably hear from it the first of next week. Morgan’s command, with Gen. Johnson and his staff, are expected here to morrow. I presume, however, the prisoners are on ly guarded by a few men, 1 conjecture Morgan himself, with nearly all of his men, is now co-operating aclively with Gen. Smith. E. paused reins of our bridle dropped from our hands. A thousand recollections crowd ed upon our memories. Theshrill notes of the fife—the rolling drum were no longer beard. Back,back, our thoughts ran, till we saw other children sporting along the streamlet’s bank, or amid the bright garden, plucking gay flowers, now swinging on the willow’s pend ant bough—now sleeping on a mossy you, labeled as your own property, to be used with impunity as long as you “con tinue” to be surrounded by bayonets. Gen. Bragg knows as well 1 do, that the article to which he refers in relation to the relief of Gen. Beauregard by himself does him entire justice. It is notorious in the ar my that his collision with the War De- department had become so frequent pre vious and subsequent to the retreat from Corinth, that he was ordered to an inferior command at Vicksburg, which order was prevented from going into execution by the interference of Gen. Beauregard, who said Gen. Bragg could not be spared at that time, as he, himself, would have to ask for sick leave. This is a fact which t should not have adverted to at this time, hut for the vulgar terms in which Gen. Bragg has been pleased to deny it. When General Bragg intimates that 1 have assailed our cause and expose our plans to the enemy, he invents a weak pre text for the exercise of unwarranted au thority. The idea of a man who every day flagrantly violates the Constitution and laws of his country—by usurping the power for the. appointment and promotion of officers—by making arbitrary arrests without charges, and inflicting cruel and unusual punishment without trial—the idea of such a man imputing to me a want of fidelity to the cause and threatening to as- *ume a censorship over the public liberties is supremely farcical. Ail 1-have to say to how blissful was childhood’s uncon sciousness of the pains arid sorrows of life. Its sky is ever bright, its flowers are ever blooyiing, and as we hear its joyous shout and unstudied laugh, how few of us sigh out. ‘"Oh wliat a world of beauty fades away, With the winged hours of youth.” One day, as a strong wind blowing, a little boy was standing at a window. Suddenly he raised his hands and ex claimed gleefully:— “Mother, listen to the wind, making music for the leaves to datice by.” In Ot leans county, in New York, they give a cow to the wife of every married man who enlists.
