When the honorable gentlemeu talked of.

the Ventral linv:mintnt which lately left Rich
mond had never made a single honed effort to
settle (tiding dijHvidius,” they would have told
the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
Most of the people of Georgia are aware of
this fact They also know, that had it not
lieen lor mtsni.anagemoat. the country would
have had peace long ago,
J ho country wants an honorablefeace. And
unless our leaders adopt a different policy
from the m>ane and ruinous one now pursued
by them, the people—the power—may inaugu
rate steps that will stop the desolation and
devastation which is now filling jevery section
ofonrtajr land Ihe people.have the inalieu
able Tight to assemble in a State Convention,
without waiting for the Legislature to call
them together. They may do so.
It was asserted in Washington, April 3, tht;*
Mobile captured.
<G«V. .T AttiC E CHAWUIAG HIS POSITION
As long a* the Yankee armies were confining
their • devastating operation to other States
besides North Carolina, and causing suffering
anil woe to the citizens of other sections Gov.
Vance of that State was very bombastic in his
special newspaper organ—telling the people
what he would do. what he would not do, and
all this and that blood and thunder stuff. In
short; he wes a very rabid “last and
last diten man.”
But things have recently changed fho
Capitol has fallen The noil of North Carolina
is being laid w .bte. tier citie. are being
armed. Her cipilol itself is threatened Guv
ance instead of “doing what he was going to
do it certain things happened,” all at once
changes Lis tune. He is now as much opposed
to the mismanaged central government, as he
was formerly loud in itssuppoit tie armings
it as follows through the very columns in
which be iruuipeted its praise only a lew
week'' s'nce :
We call this a government of the people.
Such a goviromeift implies that the will ot
the people is sovereign—teat their wishts are
consulted and ti.eir purposes carried out. But
is this tho case ? Was th « popular will consult
ed in its inception and has the voice oi In.
people controlled i*s management ? Have not
the people been rather led or dr'.v. u, instead
o- leading Have they Dot been ijio du; es of
<lt iii.igogu 'S aud partizau tricksters who have
carved out for them and forced them to exe
cute ?
lu order to selt government and safe govern
ment people must have light—must know the
situation and undeistand the c ndition ot
affairs. But how could they penetrate the* veil
of secrecy, of Concealment which has hung
over the nation tioin its eommencemt nt ?
That, which iff ail other things was necessary
to lait-iifuinc»s in tho representative—that i.<
hiscoustuut lesponsibiiily to his conetitutmey,
and a knowledge of ita acts—has been studi
ously avoided, aud henco, almo?t the entire
uiiiciiinery of the government has been moved
by other hands tiiaa that of the people.
ihe < onsi quettce is that after a triai of four
years, there is a generai lack of coi fldetice -
I be ’rulers have shown a want of confidence in
the people, ami hence tho loss ot confidence in
the ruiors. H w the government has been
managed or what its responsibilities- -what its
resources what its piosptcts, remain an un
solved probltm to the great mastlhs They have
emptied themselves in its support—their blood
has flowed freely in its defeucu—millions oi
means have been placed at its disposal, yet- lire
mii-inaiiagi-uient and blundering ot pub.icagents
tms well nigh wrecked the hopes of the peo
ple. Visions of the future—high wrought pie
ti res of what we shall one day bo—extrava
gant predictions of future glory have dazzled
ilit> public eye, but alas! the present—the now
has always been a matter of promise more
than oi real's! it ion, until oft deferred hopes
; ave n. v-'e the heart sick, and disappointment
alter disappointment has brought gloom and
tearfulness over the land.
Tim dear bought experience of the people
has shown that those iu whom they huve trust
ed weie incompetent to manage the storm they
created, and that the public confidence has
been placed upon broken reeds, which when
leaned upon have pierced them'thiough.
But the above is not all. Iu the .next issue
ot hisfcioutij piece, the Governor takes ground
winch no other Southern Governor has yet ta-
Msn- tie now asserts that secession was wrong.
He also fin thei in fists that Gen. Lee shall im
nii diately opeu negotiations with Mr. Lincoln
oil his own terms. Unis wi- see the first to
do.-ert the cause are some of the very ones who
have been the most red mouthed for war.—
I hey do not even talk of un honorable peace,
hut they talk ol peace on any teims. Hero is
the second article referred to :
It is understood that since the failure of the
pence conference. General Lee has been em
powered by the President to make or receive
overtures for peace from the enemy. General
Giant some time since in reply to Gen Lee,
.stated that ho was only clothed with war pr’e
rogatives, and was not empower.fli to treat in
reference to peice. Some days ago the North
ern press intimated that Gen. Grant would
probably be clothed with that .power. On the
back ot this comes the terrible four days as
- upon Gen. Lee’s lines before Richmond
and Petersbuig. The result of that assault is
known to the country.
For nearly four years it has been a favorite
project of the enemy lo possess Richmond
intimations have beeu made that its possession
would quell the rebellion. In the absence of
■n> reliable intelligence, it is presumed that
tin Leo has suceadcd in bringing off his
army intact upon the evacuation of those cities.
We still possess two powerful armies on this
side of the Mississippi, and the centre of a third
in the S mthwest Our people though dG
couiaged are not whipped. Many gallant
spirits both in and out of the army are still re
solved to press the battle, and there are some
who are still confident of the ultimate inde
pendence ot the South. Perhaps there are
very lew ot our people who prefer a union
with our Northern foes. Ninety nine hun
d ret lis of them can never again affiliate with
and be content under the same government
with the North. It was this feeling which first
ltd to the rebellion, and the policy which re
sulted iu the ruinous war which has followed.
A resort to negotiation, nnd the p-oper spirit
of compromise wonld have prevented the war.
i’he causes, however, which culminated iu the
war, could only have been cured by a separate
national existence.
There are two great questions which have
not yet been settled by the war, disastrous as
it has been to us. Yet the public mind has
almost universally settled down into the be
lie! that, one of these is certainly settled, and
it is possible that the public will soou settle
ih. other. The Hist of these is the destruction
of slavery in the South. The institution has
received a tremendous shock. The value of
the institution has been so depreciated as to
make slave holders teel indifferent to its fate ;
but it is a question yet to be solved whether
die institution is to be reformed or abolished
at once Certain it is, if these be auy states
manship or humanity left in rhe land, the iu
stiiution will not be almlished nolens volens.—
Pity to the slaves, if not pity to their mas tots,
must, on p secou.l sober thought, prompt a
different act ou. Nothing could bo more ruin
ous io the slave population, than to cut them
off at once from all dependence upon or obli
g.i iou to the w uited. Nineteen twentieths of
them are incapable of self-prceeivation. an ff
ruin and degredation must centainly ensue.
Ihe second question Is to the ultimate yiff-v
peidance of the South. Thousands u.> rfoubt
have already settled this in their mind* but
they look merely ai the immediate surround
ings of the question. The North never lias
idi.utted, and perhaps never will admit, that
the Southern Slates had a light to dissolve
tueir connection witu the North. Iu other
words the right of secession, the North can
never admit. If they desire to have ga perma
nent Federal government they cannot admit it.
Nor would the Confederate government admit
the right in practice. Such &u admission is an
absurdity, iu anything like a government.
Hence, it is nonsense to propose to treat with
Ine North with the expectation of the conces
sion that the Confederacy is a government.
The United States cau nevor acknowledge or
recognize the existence of the Confederate
government, so long as it occupies its-original
stand point. Were we to conquer the North
it could not make the admission. If our au
thorities aie determined to force this condition
upon the North as a oasis of negotiation, then
the North will never negotiate.
It. strikes us therefore, that Gen. Leo is in a
position to make another attempt to secure a
talk about peace. He is too wise a man to
block up his way at the threshold, by present
ing a basis to which he knows the enemy will
not yield. To meet him on his own ground |is
the only way, therefore, to open the negotia
tion. Might not the effusion of blood by
stanched and the will of suffering hashed, bs
a timely and proper movement at the present?
Our readers can now see to what extent the
loud talking war men can be depended upon.
When the enemy is at the distance, they aw
very patriotic; they want everything
They are willing that all their “tfives, neg ; vee |
relations shall go into i l he ranks,” if they can
only manage to keep their .'wu precious selves
out.

why imr a-mfes aivso depleted. It la ontt o
toe main reasons, too. Every person who

Ail a man bus needed lor ijouie time past to

aripment to be dented. Here is what the let
ter writer Rays on the subject;
A few clhvh ago oeo of them who is re dly

great difficulty now existing tnd that renders

many people remaining at liotne. He remark

papers propetty signed and extended ; yet
they should not be aosent from then earn
mauds, for the larger number are able b oiiied.
and a very large number have lodged duty
during tho greater portion of the war.
1' the system of unjust furloughing and fa
voitiig certain parties, by sending them ot alt
s rta of go -ecessary detailed duty and tray sl
ing under orders generally, was changed and
ievised or stopped altogether., there would he
no dillicu ty in keeping up the armies of Gens.

As Usual.— lt has irequeucly occurred dm -
ing the progress of this war that our soldier s
have heeu on very short rations and our sicik
and wounded deprived of comforts, large quant
ities ot provisions being patriotically burned

The Raid in North Georgia. —There is
nothing difiuite as yet in regard to the rumor
ed Yankee raid iu North Georgia. The re
port we published ou our outside iu regard to
the ma ter may bo true, and it may not.
We understand that a body of mounted
Yankees did. make thei’ - ap; ear ance at Cal
houn, Gordon Cos., last week, and rather nncer
emouiously adjourned tiie Superior Court then
in session at that place. One man who had
bushwhacked the party was killed.
Perhaps the rumor that Ihe enemy were ad
vancing in North Georgia grew out of the
movement. We hope so, for raids are ’oecom
ing most' too frequent to be pleasant, and
raiders are coming most too near to be ugreea
bie.

Gen. Cobh and Capt. McDuffie. —We pub
lish this week the correspondence between
Gen. Cobb ,and Capt., Noimiui McDutie, 4 in
which the Ca[ tain is pretty hard upon the Ma
jor General, and shows him in rather an unen
viable light. G iu. Cobb’s plea of exchanging
cotton with the Yankees for salt and other nec
essaries does not seem to be agreeable with
the Captain ami the citizens of Pulaski county
particularly when it is to fill the pockets of
private individuals and speculators. This is a
step in the right direction, and it the people
throughout the whole Confederacy will be us
watchful and put a. stop .to such illegal acts
whether Irani speculations or high officials our
currency wiil bo better, and less complaint
among the people. The General would have
I made a right nice thing of it it he could have
sold or exchanged two hundred bales of cot
ton with the Yankees at the present figures.
We would like to know how much Mr. Ayres
was going to gty* the General for such a favor ?
But then we can’t,syppose that Gen. Cobb, who
■ year ago in this city boasted of haviug given
much to the Government, and who hated

quarters of ti;e gallant Colonel of t t p ro .
Virginia, ou ■ of the “curiosities of w. j n
duce i by the colliat-n oi two minnie i f 0
full flight. J’he two builds hid met po
poim, and were moving, though in opposii
reetiirtiK, y-. t so ide.ntiuaHy upon the. sa.
slraigui. line, that Uieie was no evasion b
either of the lull force of the other's stroke.
The result, was a complete fusion or welding ot
the two into one mass, so thoroughly uniteq
that thte line of junction could not be discov
ered, except for the little ridge that runs
around. The bases of the two bullets are au
alterf ;d, and the grooves reoeived from the rifled
barrels of the muskets are plainly visible. The
bul’iecs were ol course flattened by the mutual
bio w, and the compound mass is greatly swol
len in the middle.
We are told that it is not uncommon in mus
ketry engagements for the flying bullets to im
pinge on each other, as is shown by the balls
picked up on the battle field But. to meet so
squarely, and with such effects, as in the case
to which we have referred, must he exceeding
ly rare. The welded, bullets were picked up
on the picket line, near the Howlet House ;
and it would seem that each of the men who
fired them escaped death only by firing just
when he did, and thus stopping the bail that
was coming directly to him.— Rich. Sentinel.

Gen. Wofford.—Tte following incident is

Wofford, now in commuid of Nortuorn- Geor

“Captain you will retire vef'ro sir;’
Esi«i crestfalleiiofficei' win ai tor wards

- in an interview.
What a bright example of wholesome re
proof is this ! What a vast aino' nt of good
would result'from an effort ou ihe part of those
in command to frown uowi sins debasing hab
it ot swearing.
Another incident will serve to fofeshado -Muo
policy to be adopted by die General iu his » 'ld
of labor.
Some days since an officer w! ■ rod reported
with his men, remarked that while entente to
headquarters, he had been obng< ! to impress
forage.
••Von pressed it did jou ?” said tae General.
“Yes sir.”
‘ Well, Captain,this was in direct conflict With
my orders. You wiii consider youisvll under
arrest for disobedience.”
But the General dki not stop here, a speci.il
messenger was at once dispatctied ' > the
wronged citizen with twice the tun uni, t for
age taken, accompanied by an ex plana’ y let
ter, assuring him that such irregular,fm vould
never be tolerated.
Gen. Wofford has ccme to abolish every spe

it.— Atlanta Register.

FROM MEXICO.
On the 27 th of last month was officially pub
lished in the city of Mexico Maximillian's de
cree the confiscations and sales
of church property made under former govern
ments, amounting to many millions of dollars.
This is a severe blow at the ecclesiastical rule,
which has swayed Mexico since its settlement
by Europeane. One of its effects will be the es
tablishment ol religious toleration in the coun
try, and it has caused intense excitement
among the priests and the church party genei
ally.
Another decree, merging the church power
into that of the State, was exp eeted soon to
follow. *
Another excitement arose out of the resigna
tion of the several members of the Emperor’s
cabinet, which, however, was not supposed to
have been induced wholly by his decree against
the church.
Additional successes of the imperial arms are
announced, and new adhesions to the empire
of important republican leaders are claimed.
Discoveries ot petrolium deposits have been
made in different parts of the country.
There were a large number of prominent
Americans in Mexico.
About Fowls.—'A farmer may keep a hun
dred fowls in his ham, may suffer them to
trample upon and destroy his mows of wheat
and other grains, and still have , fewer eggs
than the cottager who keeps a single dozen,
who provides secret nests, chalk eggs, pounded
brick* plenty of Indian corn, lime, water, and
gravel lor them; and who takes care that his
hens are not disturbed about their nests. Three'
chalk eggs in a nest are better than a single
nest egg, and large eggs please them. I have
often smiled to see them fondle around and
lay into a nest of goose eggs. Pullets will com
mence laying earlier iff life where nests and
egn’S are pieuty, and Where other hens are
cackling arouud them.
A disease called gapes, so destructive among
'ffiickens, may be prevented, and if not top far
advanced, cured by a slight mixture of asafee
tida in their food. • Four ..ounces dissolved in
water and mixed once a day in food, is enough
for four hundred chickens.
Take one quart of cprn mean about one
spoonful of sulphur, and as much Balt as will
give the dough a salt taste—make it into dough.
We are assured by a respectable farmer who
has repeatedly tried it,that if .this food be given
to young chickens frequently, Bay once a week
until the season-for gapes is past, they will not
lako the disease, and that if laboring under it
three or four meals of it in succession will cure
them.

by a concourse ot emhusiu.Hc listener to iu

was overlooked in the exultation ot tho hour
The shouting of tne gold room gave place to
the cheers ot the multitude iq rjpoase to
efforts of rhetoric made ou the steps of laa
Custom House and Bank of America. Crn
feratulations ireely exchanged, and rumor
magnified our successes into the capture of Lee
and Lee s army. The price of gold, Lower ir,
did not yield much, and there was very lu l d
speculation fora fall lor the evacuation or
captuie of Richmond had beenvivtuallv and a
counted, and the premium had falieu to so so-w
a point that even with peace it, would belikelv
to advance, and the shrewdest men in \V r , 11
street still look for a long continuance of tiio
war, during which the national expeuditn-e
cannot undergo material reduction.
The gold market was active early in tho
morning, but it soon quieted down and. re
mained nearly steady. The volume of bus'-
uess was light aud the speculators hilarious
■ A chorus ot -‘hallelujahs” rent the air iu the
gold room at intervals. Hats were knocked,
off in showers, and one or two popular mem
bers, of stout aud dignified appearance wei e
hustled about by the good humored crowd
till they lost their temper and complexion, and *

Cash gold continues scarce on tlm streets,
and commands a difference above tho-regular
rate.
The stock market showed considerable firm
ness at the first board, alihough a number ot
seller’s options were put out.
Governments continued steady, with a mod
erate demand for investment. They are, how
ever, still lower than they ought to be iu view
of the interests of the seven-thirty loan, th j
continuance of largo popular subscriptions to
which is of paramount importance to the gov •
ernmtnt. It is to the interest of every capital ■
ist, merchaut and property holder in the coun
try to sustain the public credit as lar as pcssi -
hie, for nearly every establisned enterprise, at
well as the general wedaro of the community,
is more or lets dependent upon its permanent %
maintenance. And as at present Ihe only loan
at the of the Treasury is offered loc
subscription at par, aad Hanot be offered be
- it, it stands io reason that the six per cent
bonds ought not to be allowed to ‘atLunde?
par, ex-interest, in any case. They should
therefore be freed from sympathy with the ca
pricious course of gold and the general mar •
ket, and exposed to as few fluctuations as pos -
sible, so ihat they may approximate in stability
to the consols ot Great Britain, for instance,
and gain in public confidence accordingly.
Money is easy at six and seven per cent on
mixed securities and six ou governments, bu ;
commercial paper is not in favor even at Halo
per cent for the first grade, and 12a15 for thu
second. The statement ol the associated banka
tor the week shows «. decrease of nearly a mill •
ion and a half in the specie iine, consequent
upon recent withdrawals of coin from the gen •
eral market. There is a further contraction m
loans of more than thirty-two hundred thou
sand. The deposits have increased nearly six
millions three hundred and eiglny-iive thou -
sand, chiefly owing to the accumulation of
subscriptions to the seven-thirty loan, with
the National banks included in the return. The
bank statement is, therefore, no longer an in
dex to the general state of business in the city.’
On the Produce Exchange to-day the leading
staples submitted to a decline, and the market
closed dull.
