THE IvEOIUiIA JKIIOST.
Wo have snfFered a groat disaster. We
can not conceal from ourselves, tlie magnitude
of the loss we have sustained in the fall of
Atlanta. But It Is not irreparable. If the
administration and people be true to them
selves, wo can rise above this fresh misfortune,
and hurl hack the foe from the important pcei
tion he has gained.
It is from just such disasters that nations
have risen with renewed vigor and determina
tion, to expel an invading enemy and save
themselves from oonquest anil subjugation.
From ‘ the nettle danger they have plucked
the flower safety.” Housed by some great
calamity, by some imminent and overshadow
ing danger, to the exertion of all their ener
gies, they have fsttuck the decisive blow which
dashed to earth the aspiring hopes of their
presumptuous invaders.
Tire battie of Pointier*, iu which the chivalry
of France was struck down by the stalwart
arm of the Black Prince, the French monarch
made a prisoner by tbe English, and France
prostrated at the feet of that imperious people,
was followed by the loss to that renowned
warrior iff all his hereditary French posses
sions, except Bordeaux, snd Bayonne, and of
all his conquest* except Calais. .It. was after
the capture of Madrid, and tire conquest of
Spain by the armies of Napoleon, that the re
kindled energies and patriotism of the Span
iards, aided by Wellington, expelled the
Gallic conqueror from their soil, it was after
Cornwallis had overrun the Carolina:), that he
was compelled to surrender. History is full -
of such examples of a people startled from
their lethargy by some crushing defeat, or
mighty calamity’ lo the successful defence of
their liberties and nationality.
This is the moral which wo would deduce
from tho signal calamity we now doplore—that
our Government and people should redouble
their determination and efforts to expel the
enemy, who has pressed into the very heart of
our territory, wiih the haughty hearing and
reckless hardihood of a conqueror. Whether
he shall lie permitted to stay, to entrench him
self in the heart of our land, nod covor it
with desolation and ruin is the question which,
tlie people and administration of tho South ard
now called upon to decide for themselves and
posterity. Who can doubt their decision.
Where is the craven heart that is ready to sur
render country and liberty to a detested and
ruthless foe under the paralyzing influence of
dastardly fear or ignoble despair ?
We can drive Sherman from Georgia if we
will, notwithstanding the full of Atlanta, and
tiro acknowledged advantages which it may
give to him for a time. The advantage is not
nil his. There is much left to us if we will
but improve it.
Hie position is one of imminent peril, it it
he pertinaciously contested and its weakness
taken advantage of by us. Wo should shud
der for tho fate of one of our armies if simi
larly situated.
As we have often remarked, Sher man has a
long and exposed lino of communication to
defend and keep open, on which the safety ol his
army and the muintenanc of Lie-position depend.
Block that and lie is gone-retreat and* rout
are Inevitable. Tho Northern press is sneer
ing at Wheeler's expedition as a failure. Wo
know not yet what if has accomplished, or may
accomplish. But we do know that we have
other forces at our command, which co opera
ting with hie, could effectually intercept and
destroy Sherman's communications. We have,
a Forrest, whose Hashing sword would carry
dismay to tho hearts of the garrisons defend
ing tho bridges and depots in Sherman's rear,
and whose impotuous, during and headlong
valor would swoop away tho railroads and sup
plies on which he depends. Wo have other
forces too, winch could be brought to bear in
tho accomplishment of this important object.
Will not the administration bo at length in
duced by tho urgency of tiro dangers threateu
ing the Confederacy, to engage in earnest in
an enterprise already too long and most unac
countably delayed? 'lhe nation expects it ;
a bleeding' country demands it. Georgia und
tiro South have suffered enough already from
the dilatory and inefficient- policy of tho ad
ministration. Red-tape-Ism has nearly proved
our ruin. Tho evil genius of tire most wrong
headed General in the Confederate ar
my, has continued to blast tire for
tunes of tire army of Tennessee. Fi» ill starred
meddling with its organisation was tho pre
lude to the defeat of Missionary Ridge ;
and his recent interference, resulting In a
change of commanders, against (ire wishes of
both the armband the people, has’been fol
lowed by the loss of Atlanta, and disaster to
our arms. The obstinate attachment of tho
President to a luckless and incompetent Gen
eral, wo believe has boerr the fruit
ful source of the misfortunes which
have attended tho gallant army now defending
Georgia, from the time lie took command of it
to the present hour.
It is high tiir.t* that incoinpetenoy, tlrat
blind partiality and ptcjudice, proscribing our
best Generals, aud elevating the most iucapa
bte to supreme command, should cease to
blight our hopes, and threaten ruin to our
cause. The crisis demands a bold, original
and effective policy. Without a moment's de
lay all the available strength and resources ot
the South should be brought to bear against
Shermau.
It is a cheering feature in tho darkness of the
present situation, that our glorious army re
inaius intact—unimpaired iu spirit and ef
ficiency, unsubdued and unconquerable—con
fronting the foe, with the same calm defiance
and unflinching resolution. The junction ef
fected by Gen. Hood with Gen. Hardee, after
his army had been cut in two by the enemy
was a masterly movement. Not until
Sherman shall annihilate that brave and iuviu
clble army can he secure a foothold upon our

California. —Some of the Northern Copper
head papers are enquiring if California belongs
Lincoln’s dominions. While gold is banished
from circulation in every other State, Cal
ifornia presents the solitary exception. The
precious metal is the chief medium of circula
tion there and greenbacks aro only tolerated.
Nay they can hardly be said to be even tolera
ted, for those who have offered to discharge
debts contracted in bustnes. or otherwise by the
payment of the obnoxious paper money, are not
only held iu disrepute, but hi some instances are
denounced for taking a dishonorable advantage
of their creditors. This look* very like disloy*
altv to Lincoln's administration, although it is in
strict contormiiy with the Constitution, which
eays that gold and silver shall be the only legal
tender.
The draft appears to be a dead letter In Cal
ifornia. None have been forced into Lincoln’s
armies from the land of gold. No voluntary
victims from her borders have yet been offered
tap upon the altars of abolitionism.
Incendiary fires are of freqiieat occurrence

We aflame to the opinion that hostilities be
tween the' L.ited States and the Confederate
States will terminate before the close of the
pre.--nt year Whatever may he
obtained by our enemies in the t!Sc. the fact
that the South is unconquerable, is a reccg
isfcd fact everywhere. At heme and abroad
this is felt to be true. The whole civilized
worid sees it. Cut for the social system of the
South, tbe independence of the Confederacy
would have been recognized long ago. All
precedent is in favor of recognition, lire
principle established hv England ;s that any
Government able to maintain its^existence,
is a Government to be acknowledged and re
spected. A Government c?c fo.cio is all that is
look) and to. This principle is well settled in the
course ofc the British Government towards the
small American Htates, towards Greece, to
wards Belgium, and towards The
successive stages of the French Government,
was acknowledged by England immediately
after the overthrow of the throne of Louis
Plilliippe, notwithstanding the existence of
the erinde eordiule which had becß established
with that monarch, who upon his flight found
a home niar London, and enjoyed to the last
hour of life the most intimate intercourse with
her Majesty’s family. So too France acknowl
edged the independence of Texas long before
Mexico relinquished its claim to that State,
and actually received a minister from the
young Republic who mot in the saloons of
tho 'J'uilleries, the Ambassador from the Mexi
can Government.
The domestic system of the South has hin
dered the recognition of the Confederacy ; but
the conviction of the ability ot our Govern
ment to maintain itself, is now settled at the
North arid in Europe. The people of the
North, lately so clamorous for war, begin to
confess now that their “ thoughts are turned on
peace.’’ Like the noble friend of Cato, they
see that their aims have filled the land with
widows and orphan.*. Then, too. the approach
ing draft may sweep some of them into the
perilous ranks of war. It is no longer a holi -
day affair. Tiie waving of banners, the flaunt
ing of the stars and stripes, can no longer awa
ken enthusiasm. Above all, Wall street is"
grim with apprehension. The financial rela
tions of the North with tho great world must
bo maintained. Chase has retired, alarmed at
spectres that would not down at his bidding.
Ami Fessenden, with all his ability, is likeiy
to be pushed from his stool. It is plain that
the war must come lo a close.
The great contest for the Presidency is once
more inaugurated. McClellan enters the field
with the most brilliant prosnccts. His nomi
nation by tiie Convention atUrdcago was, on
the very first ballot, almost unanimous ; and
it was made sa by the vote of that body upon
the motion of Vallandingham. The people and
the army both demanded him. He enters tho
field 'as Richmond did, with the blessings of
all good men on his head, for he marches
against a monster whose overthrow would be
hailed with satisfaction by all except the par
tisans who follow his banners for tbe sake of the
spoils, or who wish to use him as an instrument
for the accomplishment of their wild schemes.
A defeat awaits him as disastrous as that
, which delivered England from Richard the
Third at Boswoith. Then we hope to see
‘‘All the clouds that lowered upon our house
In the deep bosom of the ocean buried.”
Never in modern times lias there been such a
theatre for the display of statesmanship. It is
quito plain that onr affairs cannot be disposed
of by the stern arbitrament of arms. It is
perhaps fortunate that it is so. We share the
distrust of military chieftains so sedulously
cultivated by the wise and good men who have
in all ages guarded the fortunes of Free States.
Statesmen must at last settle the momentous
questions which affect the fortunes of the con
tinent of North America. The grand structure
which so lately towered up iu view of the civi
lized world, throwing the-light of hope over ail
lauds where meu dwelt who loved liberty, has
fallen with a crash that startled the nations.
The fiercest sin iggie between conflicting peo
ples that the world ever witnessed lias been
raging ever since thq destruction of ilm watch
towers reared by our ancestors, and bnt little
thought Las been bestowed upon the great
questions affecting our future relations to the
world.
The heroiestand taken by the South for the vin
dication of the right of every State to decide for
itself its relations to other States, has so far been
maintained. Every interest of humanity ; all of
human hopes, of human glory, ot human free
dom, is involved in our success in maintaining
tlrat position. We must sacrifice everything
for it. Wo cannot afford to be subjugated.
We fight for liberty for ourselves aud for oth
ers. Through whatever of disaster or suffer
ing, we mu 4 make good that splendid deciara
tion, that ihose States possess the inherent right
to decide for themselves the relations tlrat
bind them to other States. To be subjugated,
would be to admit the authority of the central
Government at Washington to decide that
question for us. All public liberty would ex
pire. 'the dishonored Constitution would never
again roar Us august form.. A colossal despo
tism would overspread the continent, aud its
baleful banners would float upon the air from
tho Atlantic to the Pacific. But if we triumph,
we shall thc.n be able to construct a Republic,
based upon thc immutable principles of con
stitutional liberty. Wc shall enter into nego
tiations with other States, aid provide by wise
measures for the protection of our rights, and
thc advancement of civilization upon this con
tinent, where our ancestors who achieved the
first revolution toiled to convert colonies into
States, and subsequently erected a Government
which they fondly hoped would perpetuate lib
erty through the coming centuries.
Tho people of the. States will settle those
questions lor themselves. They are "parties to
the great quarrel now conducted by the re
spective Governments which represent them
and they will dictate the terms of settlement.
In tire meauwhHe let us do our whole duty.
Let us contribute to the utmost of our ability
to expel the invading armies from our soil.
Let us uphold our Government in its heroic
struggle, r.nd enable it to triumph in the glori
ous cause which it is struggling to bear to
assured triumph.
Kbep Your Ei.bows In.—A few mornlugß
since, while the train from Richmond for Pe
tersburg was running up to Rice’s Station, a
box car which had been switched, off on a side
track, and which was but.a few inches removed
from tiie main track, came in contact with a
series of elbows projected by unwary passen
gers from the windows of one of the coaches,
dislocating several, and severely injuring oth
ers- Here is a lesson, every traveler ought to
profit by without waiting to be taugh® l>y his
own experience. Putting elbows and heads
out of car windows at any time is dangerous,
although not always attended with disagreea
ble results. '1 he ordinary risks of traveling in
the Confederacy now-a-days are great enough
without adding to them by one’s own impru -
deuce.
Whirs to Stick a Postage Stamp.—Stick
yonr postage stamp on the upper right hand

facilitate the labour of the clerk, who doeg
not have to turn the letter all about to stamp
the postage. The employees of the Post Office
Department have enough work put upon them
by their unmerciful overbearing task master
at Richmond, without having them added toby
the carelessness of tho public.
In New Zealand extensive gold fields have
been lately discovered near NAson, at Waka
marina,
will McClellan be klecieu>
We think he will. He is a man of great per
sonal popularity. Perhaps there is not at the
present time in the United States a man to
wards whom the masses of the people feel a
stronger personal attachment tban they do for
the nominee of the Chicago Convention.
Called into a conspicuous position just after
tbe first battle of Manassas, and made a Lieu
tenant Genera! at a time when tbe capital of
the United States was believed to be iu immi
nent peril, the eyes of the nation were turned
towards him for deliverance. And whether
justly or not, the safety of the capital after the
disastrous rout in July was ascribed to the
vigor and ' efficiency of his movements.
Again, after the second defeat at Manassas,
when cur army had cros°cd the Potomac and
was threatening Washington and Baltimore,
the people believed that the disaster was aver
ted by the expeditious movements by which
McClellan met our forces at Sharpsburg. These
exploits have made him in all probability the
most popular General of the war with the
masses of the people. They will remember
their favorite next November at the polls.
McClellan will enlist In his support the
strength of what remains of the ancient Demo
cratic parly. In former years when the fall
power of this party could be consolidated, it
was always strong enough to carry the majori
ty of the Northern States. Especially in the
great States of New York and Pennsylvania
did Democratic majorities pievail. We are
aware that there have been sundry secessions
from this party since those days. Tbe original
Abolitionists have nearly all withdrawn.
Many like Dickinson & Cos., have been pur
chased by the offices of the opposition, have
gone over to the enemy. Others like Butler
haVo sold themselves for the spoils of war.
Others still have abandoned the party under
tho belief that it was in a hopeless minorily.
These deserters have become bo throughly in
corporated with the Abolitionists that they
cannot he reclaimed. But after makiug a due
allowance for all these delinquents the Demo
cratic party is a powerful bpdy and will in
stitute a very handsome beginning for Gen.
McClellan.
Besides, tho original strength of tbe party
which brings him into the field, McClellan will
attract to his standard tire various elements of
opposition to the present administration.—
These are neither few nor impotent. The
thousands who were originally opposed to the
war, and who, though they have kept silence
whilst overborne by popular clamor, have re
linquished none of their opposition and will
not lose the opportunity to make an anti-war
mark at tho approaching election. The still
greater number who went into the war under
the leadership of Lincoln, honestly believing
that the great object of the struggle was the
restoration of the Union, but who have been
disgusted and outraged by the unconstitutional
and wicked put poses which have been included
in tho war—this large class will not hesitate to
express their condemnation of the usurper and
tyrant in November. The multitude who
have, no scruple about these measures, but who
begin to conclude that a restoration of the
Union by force of arms is impossible, and who
are willing to try what virtue there may be in
an armistice followed by negotiation, will vote
also for McClellan os the only means "by which
the experiment may lie tried. Adding these
and sundry other classes which might be men
tioned, to the vote of the Democratic paity,
and we think the prospects of the Chicago
nominee are better than those of any other
man now before the Federal public.
We do not anticipate for McClellan an easy
victory. It is no light work to dislodge from
power a party which wields such mighty pat
ronage as that which is now connected with the
Presidency of tho United Stales. One thou
sand millions of dollars annually is a small
estimate for this patronage. And this is a
sum which will secure for the iucumbeuMiosts
of friends who will support his administration
with a blind and resolute zeal. Then, too, it
must be admitted that if Lincoln bo ns suc
cessful in Virginia as be has proved himself in
Georgia, he will so excite and dazzle tho pop
ular mind at the North as to do much for his
election. If he can make the people believe
that lie is about to crush out the rebellion,
many will bo cheated by the delusion into his
support. But we believe that McClellan will
triumph over ail.
What was Needed. — The Charfeston Mer
cury thinks the failures of General Hood have
proved beyond question, that what was wanted
by our army at Atlanta, was not a change of
Generals, but reinforcements.
man' has been of the same
opinion fov a long time. When tho.-e who have
the arrangement of affairs cease venting their
petty spite and gratifying their private grudges'
there will be a different policy adopted and our
cause will prosper. If we are ever successful,
patriotism must prevail over personal feelings.
Favoritism must be numbered among the
tilings of the past and promotions and appoint
ments be based upon merit. In times es peace
party spirit and tricks cau be tolerated ; but
in the exciting times through which we are
passing the love of country should govern all
the acts an 1 movements of our rulers.
Sherman’s Fbelisos Towards thc South
Some vfeeks ago a Southern lady travelled
some distan.ee on the same boat with General
Sherman, and availed herself of several occa
sions to speak to him about the war. She de
scribes his manner while speaking on the sub
ject as perfectly furious. He 'declared frequent
ly in her .presence that the purpose of the war
was to root out the present white race of the
South—that the war would be pushed to the
utmost verge of extermination—that he want
ed to see the Southern people utter ly destroyed'
either by the sword or by starvation —and
what was more, ho would see it. Our people
can here see the feelings which the Yankee
Genera! has towards them. His acts thus far
prove his words.
Indiscretion.— The importance of secrecy in
all our military operations requiring it, is a
matter of no little moment to the success of
our cause. The Richmond Dispatch charges
that one of the causes that led to our failure
to dislodge the enemy on the Weldon road,
last Sunday week, was the extreme careless
ness with which the secret of our intended
attack had been kept. There has hardly been
a failure of any important enterprise designed
as a surprise to the enemy, since this war com
menced, which has not been traceable to some
officious and leaky individual whom it was ne
cessary to entrust with the secret, and we agree
with the Dispatch, that the law might to pro
vide a heavy penalty for such offences.
Gubernatorial Election in Maine —On
Monday an election for Governor was held in
this New England State. It is more than like
ly, in fact it is very possible than an Aboli.
tionist has been elected. At one time Maine
was sure to go Democratic. But ever since
Hamlin proved a recreant, there has been no
chance tor a Democrat iu that State.
A rut of Tennessee Post Office.—The Post
Office of the Army of Tennessee was -destroy
ed, with its contents, in the abandonment of
Atlanta. Mr. Mills, the special agent of the
Post Office Department, is now iu Griffin, mak
ing arrangements for its re-organixath n, which
he hopes to effect at an early day.
Greenville Tenn., the place where Gen.
John H. Morgan was killed, is the county seat
of Greeno county. It is situated on the East
Tennessee and Virginia Railroad, fifty miles
Southwest of Bristol, and seventy miles from
Knoxville.
FKCMi TBE FHOVT.
The (Yankees having withdrawn tbe’r lines
towards Atlanta, our forces occupied Jones
boro' and the entrenchments beyond, on Tues
day. Trains of cars run now to that place,
which is made the depot of supplies Tor the
Army of Tennessee.
The general impression concerning this hist
movement of Sherman is, that he will retain
his army in close proximity to Atlanta, and
accumulate thert large stores -and supplies,
preparatory to a final rapid campaign during
the autumn.
The reliable gentleman reports that Sher- -
man promised furloughs to largo, numbers of
his men ro soon as they occupied Atlanta, and
that while he recuperates and . organizes into
efficiency his shattered and worn army, he will
redeem his promise and allow -the "men that
promised privilege. It is suppok-d Fiat he
will perfectly secure the defences of Atlanta
and his lines of communication along the State
road, and thus allow himself to weaken his
army wi'.h impunity, by furloughing large
numbers.
Itis thought by many that Sherman’s next
move will be along the’ Georgia railroad—al
though it is impossible to say when he will
go. Every one however concurs in the opin
ion that he will send out numeryjas raiding
parties.
Our ?wn army is rapidly accumulating in
strength and numbers. A large portion of
those who avere broken down by the hardships
of the past few weeks, have recovered and are
resuming their places by hundreds daily.
Numbers too, whose wounds were slight are
rapidly hurrying to their commands, earnest
and anxious, to make the barrier our army
presents formidable and perfect.
We recaptured at Jonesboro a good many
wounded which the enemy did not care to take
off, on account of tbe severity of their injuries.
It is reported that Sherman is fortifying East
Point ami Decatur. There Ims been some slight
skirmishing along our front, but it was charac
terized by little spirit on either side.
Twenty or thirty prisoners were brought
down Wednesday afternoon. They were cap
tured in the battle of Jonesboro. They ex
pressed themselves sick and tired of the war.
We have very pleasant rumors concerning,
our future prospects, which are at present
contraband.
The Griffin Rebel says there lias been no
change in the condition of affairs in our fronlt
The report mentioned in our last, that the ene
my had disappeared, is confirmed. They seem
to have moved off with much precipitation,
leaving all their entrenching tools and much
other dtbris on the ground. Whether they
have fallen back to Atlanta or are making
another movement on our flank lias not yet
been developed. It is understood that wc now
occupy Jonesboro.
The Macon Confederacy states that our army
is represented as being in good condition, and
as eager for the fray as they were previously
to leaving Atlanta. Though they have sus
tained a reveise, their spirits are us un
conquerable as ever, and we expect them to
make a record of bavery when they do meet
in open fight, that will stamp them as second
to no army on the continent..
Rev. Father PLiramel; a Roman Catholic
Priest, who has labored long and faithfully with
his charge in the army of Tennessee, was killed
by a shell in the battle before Jonesboro, Ga.,
on Thursday, the Ist of September.
It is said that Hardee’s Corps, in the la’e
fight at Jonesboro, where it so heroically held
at bay six-corps of Yankees, killed and wound
ed fifteen thousand of the enemy. No wonder
the soldiers are proud of being under “Old
Reliable.’’
The Macon Confederate, an Administration
organ, comments thus on tho position;
If the Government at Richmond will but
awake to the emergency and send the cavalry
which is scattered over Alabama and Mississippi
to the rear of Sherman without delay, wo may
yet have the pleasure of chronicling the abso
lute failure of Sherman’s campaign, and the
capture of a large portion of his.army.
Let Forrest, with every cavalryman he can
muster in Alabama and Mississippi strike tbe
enemy’s rear between Atlanta and Dalton, and
Sherman will be compelled to retreat, Wheel
er is intefering-with his communication north
of Chattanooga, and if Forrest is hut ordered
to his immediate rear, we may confidently
look for the happiest results.
Important to Holders of Four per Cent
Bonds—The following letter has been handed
to the Charleston Mercury for publication :
Office Commissioner of Taxes, i
Richmond, August 20, 1804. f
J.K. Suss, Esq., President of the liank of
Charleston, Charleston, S. C :
Sin: Your letter of the 15th instant to the
address of the Secretary of tho Treasury, has
been refened to this Bureau. You state that it
is reported thero that tlie Tax Collectors have
been instructed not ro receive four per cent, cer
tificates' in payment of taxes from any but the
original subscribers, or in other-words, certifi
cates transferred to a third party, are not
available or thc payment ct taxes.
I am not aware tlrat any such instructions
have ever been issued. lam certain none such
have emanated from the Department at this of
fice. On the contrary, you will see from the
enclosed copy of regulations, that four percent
certificates may be transferred indefinitely,
and that the holder may use them in payment
of bis taxes, whether he ba the original holder
or a mere assignee, by conforming to the re
quirements of Article 2 of said regulations.
Yery respectfully.
T. Allan, Commissioner,
-The following is the paragraph from the Tax
Commiisioner’s“regulations” referred to above:
Treasury Department. C. S. A..)
Richmond, Apiil 30, 1804. J
When and such four per cent, bond or cer
tificate is used in payment of tax or taxes, there
must, before the same is recieived, be written
upon it or upon some paper annexed, an as
signment to'the District Collector* who, or which
deputy, shall receive it, expressed in terms-de
noting that such assignment is made in pay
ment of a tax or taxes due from the then hold
er, or holders, or from some partnership, firm, or
incorporate association, 4 w hereof he is, or tlrey
are, a member orlmcmbers, or from some mem
ber or members (named) of a parlnerslrip, firm
or incorporate association, then holding and
about to assign the same.
When the person or persons thus making an
assignment to the District Collector shall not
be the person or persons in whose name or
names said bond or.certificate was issued, there
must, before tho same is received, bu written
upon it, or upon some paper annexed, an as
signment from the latter under which either
directly, or through some intermediate assign
ment or y *assignments, tlie former shall appear
to bo assignee -or assignees thereof ; butitshall
suffice, if there is an assignment in blank as to
the name or names oi the assignee or assignees,
which blank may be validly filled, with the
name cr names of the holder or holders at the
time of his, her or their transferring the bond
or certificate to the District Collector.
Arid in every case, before such Collector or
his deputy shall receive any snch bond or cer
tificate, each assignment thereof, whether in
full or in blank, as aforesrad, must have an
authentication in due form, for which a certifi
catejof any District Collector or his deputy, or
of any magistrate, or notary public, or cler k of
a court of record, in the words, “executed be
fore me," or “acknowledged before me” and
signed officially shall suffice.
Thf; Mexican Succession.—Letters from the
City of Mexico bring the text of an Imperial
decree appointing, in case of tho Emperor’s
death, the Empress Charlotte regent of tho em
pire. It is tbti3 couched :
“Considering that nothing is so urgent as to
provide for the maintenance of the legitimate
government of tho nation which has elected us
for its sovereign, and to obviate all eventuali
ties which might arise, we have decreed, that
in the case of death or of any other accident
which may render it impossible for us to con

A Vert Foolish Lie.—We see a statement
in some of the Georgia papers said to be taken
from a Yankee paper, that a Commissioner had
reached Washington City from Georgia, ask
ing on what terms Georgia can return to the
Union. 'lhe whole story is a lie from begin
ning to end.
We are authorized by Gov. Brown to say
that no Commissioner has been sent from
Georgia to the United States or to, tho Gov
ernment of the United States, upon the subject
of peace, or upon any other subject of business
whatever.
We think the best thing our Government
could do, touching the Yankee prisoners at Ma
con and Andersoaville, would be to parole all
ot them whose times have expired, and send
them beyond our lines. There are many good
reasons for such a course of conduct, which we
may may urge at another time.

From appearances it is thought the Yankees
are making preparations for another raid from
Memphis.
