Annua! Report of the
master-General of Georgia
We have before us the “ Annual Report
of fra R. Foster, Quartermaster-General of
Georgia, for Fiscal Year ending October
15,1863.” -This document is one possess
ing great interest to the people of this
State at this time. The operat ions of Gen.
Foster for the year, as here detailed, shows
that the duties of his office are arduous;
but we are confident that no one could be
selected who would perform those duties
with greater teal, fidelity and energy than
the present incumbent. A brief resume of
the subject matter of the report we find
in the Augusta Chronicle :
The duties of Gen. Foster call for oper
ations of three kinds—the regular duties
connected with the troops of the State, under
command of Governor Brown ; the pay
ment of troops, and the settlement of claims
due for services rendered in the late State
army; the manufacturing and issuing of
clothing to the destitute troops from Geor
gia in the Confederate service; and the
purchasing and issuing of yarns to the des
titute families of Georgia troops.
Gen. Foster says: “On the 13th of De
cember, 1862, an act was passed, calling
two regime!.ts of infantry into the service
of the State, which devolved upon this de
partment to furnish them with Quarter
master’s stores.” The total disbursments
of this department during the year are : for
purchase of property, $59,448 75 ; expend
itures, $66,14853; transfers to Quarter
masters, $280,895 25.
During the year Gen. Foster has dis*
bursed in his office for payment of troops,
$18,558 59.
The sum of $1,889 13 was disbursed for
hospital stores.
By direction of Governor Brown, the
Quartermaster-Gerierat made a requisition
on the Military Fund —agreeable to the
Legislative appropriation of $1,500,000
“to procure and furnish clothing, shoes,
caps or hats, and blankets for the soldiers
of Georgia”—for $200,000, and proceeded
at once to make such contracts for the
purchase of material as was possible. Be
was, as might be expected, seriously embar
rassed by the great scarcity of material;
and he acknowledges he cannot now see
where, in the Confederate States, goods of
certain kinds can be optained. “Cotton
goods can be obtained,” he remarks,
“ though with difficulty,but woolens cannot
be had.” He has purchased during the
year, 37,941 pounds of wool, which has
been woven into cloth, at an average cost
per pound of $1 90. Os hides, he has
bought during the year 125,000 pounds,
which, when tanned, will turn out about
90,000 pounds of leather, sufficient to man
ufacture about 30,000 pairs of shoes. The
average price paid for the hides was about
$1 50 per pound, for tanning 40 cents per
pound.
During the year he established a Cloth
ing Bureau in Augusta, under command of
7 Geu. G. W. Evans, and says: “Through
his energetic, faithful discharge of duty, a
large amount of clothing has been manufac
tured.”
A shop tor making shoes was established
at Marietta, under the control of Capt.
E. M. Field, who has turned out 28,814
pairs of shoes. In addition, 7,056 pairs
made of leather at reasonable prices, have
been purchased from tanners, which are
being kept for the wet and cold season.
We are very sorry to learn from the
report that Gen. Foster has not been able
to purchase a single blanket—blankets
cannot be bought in Georgia, not in the
South, unless in very small quantities and
at enormous prices.
In response to Gen. Foster’s appeal to
the women of Georgia, 11,818 pairs of
socks have Iteen received ; and of these
7,345 pairs have been issued, leaving on
hand 4,473 pairs, which will be issued so
soon as the cold weather arrives. He has
made arrangements tor a sufficiency of yarn
to manufacture about 50,000 pairs hf socks
this fall.
A tabular statement shows that he has
issued during the year hats, clothing, and
shoes to 21 regiments, 7 battalions, and 2
companies, as follows: 4.719 hats, 7,291
jackets, 8,828 pants, 9,185 shirts, 8,036
drawers, 12,294 shoes, 7,517 socks. He
has now on hand —5,838 hats, 44,728 jack
et*, 46,235 pants, 32,191 shirts 30,068
di awers, 23,576 shoes, 4,473 socks, 135 yds.
woolen goods, 31,841 yards osnaburgs, 80,-
000 yards shirting, 14,541 yards dnck, 35,-
100 lbs. of sole leather, 8,000 lbs of upper
leather.
Owing to the great scarcity of procuring
the necessary material with which to man
ufacture clothing and shoes, Gen. Foster
suggests the propriety of running the block
ade by exporting cotton, and raising funds
in Europe by means of cotton warrants,
issued upou cotton purchased by the State,
the cotton to be delivered at some of the
ports of the Confederacy.
Os the cotton yarn appropriation au
thorised by resolution of the last Legisla
ture, 65 counties have been thus far sup
plied with yarns for the destitute families,
of soldiers from the State. The number of
bunches is 16,480; value of yarn, $98,880.
Three clerks are employed in the Quar-i
termaster General's office, whose labors arej
quite arduous —each having their particular
duties assigned their..

THE BAPTIST
[For The BaplM” Banner]
Meeting at Hillsboro’, Scott
County, Miss,
Several associations and many churches
have already, to our knowledge, ap
pointed delegates to the above meeting of
the Baptists of our State, which begins on»
Friday before the first Sabbath in Decem
ber, 1863.- We have been comparatively
idle, hitherto, owing, mainly, to the want
of a paper, or medium of communication,
since the suspension of the Tennessee Bap
tist, and the Mississippi Baptist. Our
churches have been willing to give, and
some of our ministers willing to go, to the
army as missionaries' (others having alrea
gone as chaplains); but it was not known
how anything could done until recently.—
We are glad to learn that our brethren in
other and older States have done much. We
have resolved to come together and do
what we can, also, either in the Bible or
Colporteur Societies, or in some other or
ganization. It is earnestly requested that
every church in Mississippi will send one
delegate and as much money as possible,
to this meeting at Hillsboro’. We wish to
do our part in furnishing our brave, self-sa
crificing soldiers with both the preached and
written Word of God, and with a religious
literature which will teach the whole truth,
as we believe it.
2l MANY BRETHREN.
Diptheria.
• A physician of distinguished ability gives
, us the following facts concerning this much
dreaded disease:
Ist. in its nature, it is not a local affec
tion, as is usually supposed, but eonstitu
tional, pervading the blood of the whole
system before it makes its appearance in
any part. It is of a nature kindred toery-
> sipelas, and though epidemical, is not etrict
, ly speaking’infectious.
2d. Its most manifest symptom is a false
I membrane, of a white color, which forms
upon and around the tonsils, near the pal
ate, and which thickens and extends, unless
checked, until the patient dies from surfbea
, tion. This false membrane is, however,
; not confined to the throat, but m-’y sorne
f times be seen upon the hand or arm, or in
i any other place where the skin has been
, removed.
t 3. Among the cautions to be observed
; are the following: Avoid all medicines
i and modes of treatment which shall ex
t, haust the strength, and be careful not to
i injure the skin by blisters or counter irri
, tants, particularly in the neighborhood of
. the throat.
4th. To effect its cure, aim to restore as
> rapidly as possible, the patient’s waning
t strength. For this purpose, let the diet
• be of the most nutritious character, chicken
soup, beef tea, Ac. Give freeh of egg-nog
• made of good whisky, or use the stimulant
f in any other way that will combine nour
i ishment with stimulation. Add to the gen
, eral strength by the use of mineral tonics,
of wtiieh none is better than muriate of iron
which may be administered as largely as
I ten drops every two or three hours, for an
adult. Between the doses of iron give be
[ tween five and fifteen grains of chlorate
, (not chlorid) of potash, or of soda. The
> chloride of soda may be used as an antisep
, tic gargle, but the best gargle is common
salt.

An Important Life Insurance
Decision.
, The Imperial Court of Lyons has just
I given a judgment which decides an impor
tant point of law relating to life insurance.
( In 1862, a tradesman named Bouvan, died
P insolvent, leaving a wife and children, for
whose benefit he had some time before in
sured his life for 20,000 fr. at a yearly pre
mium of 2,075 fr. The widow’s claim to
this money was opposed by her husband’s
creditors, who insisted that the 20,000 fr.
( belonged to the bankrupt’s estate, and com
menced proceedings to recover the same.—
After hearing counsel for the creditors and
the widow, the Court decided that the con
, tract by which a person insures to a third
party the payment of a certain sum at his
decease was perfectly legal, unless the in
surance were made with a fraudulent inten
tion, which was not alleged in the present
case, and that no other person had any
claim on the money so insured; it accor
dingly gave judgment rejecting the demand
of the creditors and authorizing the insur
ance company to pay the 20,000 fr. to the
widow.
Monomaniac*. —We have heard of these
creatures from our early boyhood, but have
never been able to comprehend the nature
of the animal until within a few months
past. Corn plenty, and meal three dollars
per bushel; the largest sweet potato crop
ever raised in Georgia, and selling at from
five to six dollars per bushel; the forests
ja* near the city and wood as plentiful as
lever, and yet selling in our streets at sl2i
to S2O per cord ; cotton not worth more
i than four times the old price, while com
mon brown sheeting and osnaburgs is sell-*
ling by retail dealers at from thirty to forty ;
times the old price—while the factories oc- j
Icasionally dole out a few’ yards to a chosen
[few at seven times the old price. These
: are only a few evidences we have that this
animal is becoming very plenty in our
midst, and can be seen at any turn one
takes in the outer world.
Some may object to this application, but ;
we shall insist that those who exact these i
prices are monomaniacs on the subject of i
money, or they are the worst extortioners ,
this or any other country was ever cursed <
with. We wonder how many of these |
vampires attended the meeting at the court- 1
house, to take steps in reference to Confed- i
crate currency and to regulate prices. <
Enquirer. ;
The Next Wheat < rop—Productive
Lab »r.
A correspondent of the Charleston Cou
rier makes grievous complaints that the
wheat prospects for next spring are rather
gloomy, on account of the absence of plant
• ing labor, the State drift having placed too
large a portion of the vroductive population
*in the field. In the bounds of the district
‘ from which otle regim mt has been raised,
he says the yield will be short 48,000 bush
t els by the withdrawal of 500 men, who are
non slaveholders and over forty-five years
’ old, to form that regiment.
The Selma Mississippian also sounds an
alarm, as follows: “Shall we have a wheat
I croo next year? A few weeks must decide
. that question. Can wheat be sown without
men 1 Are not men of certain ages more
useful on the farm than in the barracks?
1 • The North Carolina papers also express
■ grave apprehensions on the same subject.
This is a most interesting topic, -md de
, mands the attention of statesmen. The pro
duction of food is as vital to the cause as
5 success in arms. The food resources of the
country must not be diminished ; and yet it
- is clear from the clamor raised by the news
t papers about putting “everybody able to
j carry a gun into the army,” and from the
} talk of the new Congressmen in their ad-
> dresses, to the same purpose, that there will
. be great danger of overdoing this business
1 of forcing men into the army, and so, from
3 lack of food, the country shall be more es-
> fectually subjugated than Lincoln’s armies
could do it. Insure us plenty of good food
to sustain our armies in the field, and our
families at home, and there is no fear of
subjugation. But with inadequate supplies
4 of food, our cause is certainly ruined, al
j though you should double our armies. The
favorite talk is “strengthen the armies, and
conquer a peace before spring.” That is a
schoolboy’s dream—or it is the desperation
( of the gamester who hazards his all on a
i single cast of the dice. We certainly hope
. that the day of peace may not be very re
. mote, but it is the dictate of the most ordi
nary prudence to be prepared for a protract
. ed war.
, The time is coming when the solid men
of the country rnu-t set their faces against a
. ruinous drain upon our population for war
purposes. The proposition to conscribe
men over forty-five is suicidal. To get one
’ good serviceable soldier of that age it will
! probably kill four or five of the most valu
. able of our productive population—heads of
large families—small thrifty planters and
I farmers, whose place could not be supplied.
} Few men of the settled physical habits
. which commonly attach to the ages of forty
, five and upward can be taken from home
and exposed suddenly to the vicissitudes of
■ camp life, without ruining their eonstitu
tions <>r killing them We hope the press
t will be careful in their counsels upon this
r subject.
1 Country Boys
I Country lads often feel that their lot is a
hard one. They see city bred youngsters
on their travels and their sprees at the age
• of fourteen I veritable young gentlemen,
, with a finished exterior, a cigar and a cane.
1 The young farmer at the same age finds
1 himself with a hoe in hand and a cheap straw i
i hat on his head, sweating among the hills of I
corn. He is frequently envious of his city!
brother—whisking past h ; m in the cars,with I
1 kid gloves, delicate ringlets, and plenty of!
money in his pocket.
1 Mind your corn, boy ; hoe it out clean;
keep steadily at the labor you have in hand;
and in Time your good days will come too.
If you find farming is not suited to your
taste, or your strength or circumstances, if
you like mechanism better, or have a capa-
■ city for business, whatever you may exen
. tually engage in it is all the same, you have
begun right. The city blades have begun
■ wrong, and in due time you will see it.—
Their fathers and mothers will, in the end,
see it too. Do not feel envious of the plea-
• sures that a hot-house man enjoys; but re
i member, not in a malicious but sober spi
rit, that such plants wither early By the
lime you have acquired fixed habits of in-
■ Justry, and acquired a corresponding per
fection of mind and body, your delicately
reared cotemporary of the town begins to
feel the debilitating effects of idleness and
dissipation. He is not alone to blame for
a weak body and profitless mind; it is the
result of a system; but he cannot escape
from its effects; these he must endure for
himself in his own person. Hisfather may
be a professional man, or a merchant, or
or may be merely rich ; the chances are fifty
Against one that the son will not replace the
father. Such is the result of well settled
experience; business falls into the hands ol
those who are most competent; it does not
descend to heirs. It is the country boys,
after all, who do the city business. Ob’
serving men have often stated this fact; and
inqu're into the origin of any of our large
cities, and you will find it to be so. All
external cireunmances are in favor of the
son or the clerlf succeoding to the trade of
the old firm ; but the son seldom, almost
never dies in the position of partner in the
i house. Why is it? Simplv because ha
bitual industry is wanting ; habitual indul- 1
gence is not wanting. With all the exter- i
| ual odds against it, the country furnishes
the city its pricipal business men. If intel-'
ligent, faithful, and deserving, and above
ail cheerful and contented, the chances are'
that the lad with the hoe will eventually do
the business of the father of the lad who is
now luxuriating in his travels.

as follows: Take the stalks,after grinding/
pack as closely as possible into a barrel or

place on them a heavy rock, or other
weight to keep them down, and after fer- j
