tub tuwmmffl. ATLANTA, GEORGIA. Fourth Paye."*? FRIDAY, MAY 8, 1863. titouwmi Jiukign Wounded. perhaps no disaster could have befallen *ny one in the army (excepting General Lm or Johnston) or tbe army itself, which the country at large would have *o much da piored, as that which has befallen the immor tal Stoke wall Jackson. Up to the present time, he seems to have possessed a charmed life—as, although, be has done more hard fighting, and passed through more hotly con tested conflicts and perilous engagements, than any other commanding officer in the army, he has until now escaped unscathed Tbe news of his having been wounded h»E been received with sadness throughout the Republic, and the people will learu with sorrow that the wound ha3 caused bim the loss of his left arm. The effect on the army will be to inspire them with a determination to surpass then past extraordinary service, and to seek re venge upon the enemy for the serious injury inflicted by them upon their favorite com mender. When the “ Stonewall Brigade ” is again beard from we will guarantee that it will be aa tbe dealer of still heavier and more destructive blows than ever. The people will deplore and latnent the loss—but will it depress them iWe percsive no signs of it. A conviction that "God is with us” abides in their breasts, and although ene of our most trusted Generals is tem porarily lost to tbe army, no fear is enter tained. The Almighty now, as in tbe past, is able, and will raise up another to supply his place, should circumstances demand it. If it be true, as we claim, and religiously be lieve, that the Lord is en our side, then we should not despond, nor feel depressed, even though ha had been slain, and the other great leaders with him. A conviction has settled upon the public mind, that no matter what heavy and deadly warlike Implements the enemy may send against us, or what num bers he may precipitate upon us, the result will be the same a great, glorious, and per manent triumph in the egd. The people feel that God is with ns, and that He will, in the end—whether the end be remote or near give us tbe victory. But may not this untoward event have an other and a deeper significance ! Have not soldiers and people relied too much upon tbe judgment, skill, and energy of this one man ? It ha's been “Stonewall Jackson” this, and “Old Stonewall” that, until it seemed we all relied upon men—a n d one mat at that—for getting God iu the whole matter, and that as He bad raised up Washington in Ihe First Revolution, so He has raised up Daviß, and Lee, and Johnston, and Jackson and Beaure gard in this. Thswoundiug of Johuston be fore Richmotid, and of Jackson now, may be designed by Providence to remind ns cf our dependence, and that, as He gave us these great men, He can deprive tis of them if He would, and he is fully able in His own good time and manner, if we prove true and faith ful in our trust in Him, to raise up others for as equally able to lead us to victory. How to Reinforce Armies Rapidly. From a Georgia cotempoi ary we extract as below, to show the richness of our ver nacular. Tbe purest English is that which it written and spoken by tbe best writers and speakers. Tbe italics are our own . “We are not inclined to believe anything a Yankee says-particularly one of tbs cow ardly set now near this city; but it is a pro per time iu this connection to urge upon the people of this city to organize tvtry able man info companies, so that ut tbe tap ol tbe drum or tbe ringing of a bell, every muu will know who to report himself to. Query —How mauy companies can one man be “cut up into and to whom isfifie poor devil, thus ruthlessly dismembered, to re port ! Capital suggestion for rapidly rein foroing an army i Yet another—italics ours ; “On Monduy evening a number of the citi zens of Decatur and DeKcilb County,” Ac , Ac., Ac. We didn’t kniAv before that Decatur and DcKalb counties bad “merged” into one and me same county. Our Richmond Correspondence. Richmond, Va., May 2d, 186S. II o’clock, P. M. The movements of our troops and of tbe enemy and other events that bars occurred within the past few days leave no doubt that a sanguinary battle is near at band and may take place to -morrow. It is hardly necosta ry for me to give you the position of the ar mies of Lee aud Hooker respectively. Not being acquainted noth the geography and topography of the country, I cannot add any tning to what you have no doubt already seen in the daily papers of this city, from which yon may, of course, make your selec tion. It may be well, however, to say that on Thursday and Friday last a few regiments ot the Abolitionists crossed the Rappahapuock at Fredericksburg. This was a mere feint to cover their real design. Whilst this was going on the main army of Hooker crossed the river about twenty miles above Freder icksburg at Kelly’s Eord.. Such was the se crecy and dispatch with which this move ment was made that the crossing was effected without t% knowledge of our commanding General. Tbe 13th G». regiment anil a few jther troops only resisted their passage. Yesterday the enemy had flanked the left wing of onr army and was partly in our rear Hl* r|f bt wing, it is said, extended ss far a* Taylorsville, on the Central Railroad, and about 30 mil'sa from this. Stonewall Jackson attacked to-day their le' wing driving it toward the centra with grt -. loss. Though we are on the eve of a great bat tle, which will, in a great measure, decide tbe fate of our country, our people are quite calm. No apprehension is manifested either by word or act. All are sanguine of a glo rious victory. li we can destroy Hooker’s army, Washington will be, or ought to bo. captured. There will be no serioue obstacle in the wav. I hope and believe that I shall in a few days, perhaps hours, be able to give you on account ol the most bril. liant and decisive victory ol the war. It is gratifying to bear our people speak or onr successes in ibis Stale and South Carolina. The soul swells with pride at the ability of our generals and the gallantry of our pri vate soldiers. But, alas! when you speak <>t the Southwest the emotions which aie alone the offspring of genius, skill and he roism in defence of one's country are per ceptibly marred and tbe tongues gives utter <nce to what is usually felt, mortification •nd disappointment. The cause of this is eally more imaginative than real. Our chances tor success there are, at least, equal to that ot theeuemy. It cannot be said that though he is tbs invader he has gained any advantage over us in over a year. Ws have thus far successfully defended Vicksburg, which has been and is still eagerly sought by tbe enemy. Bragg is st the head ot s well disciplined sod powerful army. The truth is, what has done more than all other things to discourage our people aßd to produce in many the most melancbolly fore bodings was the unheard of barbarity of Hindman, impairing grestly the efficiency ot I the army of the trans-Mississippi Department, and then the imbecility of the dotard Holmes. By tbe latest advices Smith and Price are deing their duty, aid are rapidly making our army what it ought to be. Order ia su perceding chaos. Confidence ia the humani ty of their generals, In taking tbe place of fear of being shot for the most trivial offence, and a determination on the part of many to take an active part in eur great struggle for liberty, removing a disposition -to remain inactive from a sense of the cruel wrongs that bad been inflicted on them. Tbe country will learn with surprise and regret that Congress postponed action, till its next session, on the hilt to repeal eur naturalization laws. If there is any measure ou which the people are * unit, it is this. Nine-tenths of all foreigners are hostile ts the institution of slavery. Tbe Yankees, as well aa tbe European foreigners, are bow the invaders of our homes, ruthleasly destroy ing our property, murdering indiscriminately our people, threatening us with a late worse than death—prosecuting a war against us, which, in fine, is repugnant to humanity and to tbe civilizitioa of the age. Yet, when it is proposed inUongress that these fuss to all virtue shall not he naturalized, shall not be come citizens, shall not enjoy the blessiags they had sought iu vain to destroy, shall not be protected by onr Government, hold real estate, or sue in tbe Confederate Courts, which aie the elements of citizenship—when it is proposed. I say, that these men shall not become citieees of eur country, instead of prompt and decided action in favor of the proposition, it is listened. Among the lead ers in favor of procrastination, wai Senator Johnson. This act of his, the people of Geor gia, I am quite sure, will never approve. After we shall have achieved our inde pendence, if foreigners, with all their pre judices against our social institutions, are to be made citizens, it will fee the most fruitful source of evil and danger. The natural and artificial advantages of onr country would bo too tempting to resist; they would come among us in large mim Ders, purchase and bold real estate, and, in a few years, would wield a moat baneful in fluence to our peace and prosperity. They nave contributed, as everybody knows, no little to bringing about the calamities we are now experiencing. Our own interest demands the repeal of tbe law, and humanity sanction* the de maud. It is remarkable that this is not ths only instance iu wnich a tender regard has bssn shown to foreigners. A bill was before Con gress to ccascribe resident foreigner#, in cluding Marylanders ; it passed < sly as to the latter. Why this regard for men who live among us, eating up oar sabstasce, and are here, not for any loro they hare for our people, government, laws or institutions, but merely to make money ? They are the most heartier s harpies in the whole eoaotry. While our Government is protecting them, and onr soldiers are fighting and dying in their defence, they hesitate not to extort the lost dollar from the families of their pro tectors and defenders; yet. Congress has re fused to conscript them, lest offence be given to foreign powers, powers that not only do not sympathise with us, but are not inclined even to do us sheer justice. Let rot the demands of bioht be sacrificed at the bidding of cold and calculating policy. Let me record an instance ot patriotism worthy of ail praise A young men, in rather feeble health, in tbe Second Auditor’s Office of tbe Treasury Department, by the name ot Frederick Votttngham, es North county, Va., learning, a tew days ago, that a battle was imminest between Lae’s and Hooker’s armies, resigned bin position at once, shouldered his gun, and has gone to risk bia life in defence of our cause. In passing along Franklin street this even ing, I met a lady, who evidently belonged to tbe upper walks of life; I told her what was rumored and believed, jhough It turned out ts b« untrue, that there was a battle raging all along our lines. Anxiety was at once | depicted on her face. “I have lost,” laid | ■he, “I wo sons in this war, and my only re maining son is under Gen. Lee.” But in stantly becoming more salm, she said, “If he fall, it will be in defence ot his country, and he could not die in a nobler cause.” Wbat a noble woman t Let mothers take consola tion from --.bis. Though they may never again s«a the familiar form and smiling faces of those most dear to them, though these jewels may fall ou a bloody field, and be buried tar from home and frienda, let it be remembered, and it should be a consoling thougbt, that to die in the defence ot their country ia the most glorious of deaths, and that their memories will be embalmed by a oountry’s gratitude. TROUP. Senators Hill and Yancey. We notice that our esteemed friend ot the Intelligencer has published the speech of tbe Hon. W. L. Yancey in reply to our Senator, Hon. B. H. Hill, without giving thespnech oi the latter gentleman. This tx parte state ment (though, doubtless, unintentional) does our Senator, in our opinion, great injus tice. The Alabama papers have published tbe speeches of both these gentlemen. The In telligencer,therefore, we doubt not, will, as a simple act of justice to our distinguished Senator, publish his speech. We know that our cotemporary would not do Mr. Hill in tentional injustice. (For tbs Commonwealth. Restricted Suffrage. Dear Commonwealth i —l observe in your column*, and those of the Confederacy, arti cles and sermons to the amount, that some people ar* ad roosting a restricted saffraqt. You are perfectly justifiable by law and •very element that characterses a gentleman and a freeman, in crying it down in its in fancy. Though you have shown it ia it. true light, by means of your editorials, yet too much cannot be said against it. There are a few low degraded men who are willing to sell their vote for a pint of alcohol j but ia that the reason why there should be a law allowing only a lew men the right ot being heard through the ballot box? Because you have a horse with one eye, is that a sufficient reason that you should knock out the other ? If one man be sick should you give medicine to twenty others who are per fectly aanud and well ? These questions seem absurd, J . R liter, but I assure you they are not iboiv so than the arguments (if any they have) of thu.e who wish to have a restricted suffrage. B cause one man does sot know h.iw to use his vote, the preacher would keep tea others from casting their votes f How could he so far forget himself as to give out to an enlightened congregation, that restricted suffrage ought to be resorted to ? aud that, too, iu tbe midst of such times as these ! Great Heavens! will the people «f the Southern Confederacy allow them selves to be disfranchised at the polls ? No ! tee terrors ot a French revolution with dou ble fury, will burst upon us, more terrible than the ene we now feel. The Pzopj.B wi’l nerer allow their right of suffrage to be torn lroin them. “ Vox peipeli vox Dei ! ” aud it will remain so as long as the people have a good right arm. VOX POPULI. Etxtonion, Ga., May, 1863. .-wo-eo— A Blffercus. Subjoined are extracts from three of the leading papers ot New York city, as they appeared in the Spring of I*6l. The reader will notice a marked difference bstweea the extracts and such as may here met his view of late, Irom the same sheets. Instead of three months, three years will soon have elapsed, and yet the “rebellion” is stronger now than it was then. Just boll yeur breath new, and read what follows : (Frffii* the New York Tribune.) “They come, they come, the warrior braves of the North, with mudsills edged with Bteel! Mark this, ye traitors cf the palm anil pine ! Mark this, siaveocrats, aristocrats, and kid nappers of human freedom ; tbe Nort btnen conte like the wings of the wind ! Iu three little months—three brief sunny months of spring—trow a faint white cloud which shall he seen hovering over the .South, will be vis ible tbe black soul of the Southern Confed eracy, going up to tbe God who punishes guilt and treason. Mark it 1 Take it ts your heart ot hearts ! Like some hideous night mare your dream es utopiau, aristocratic life, shall go out, it may be in blood-surely in disaster aud disgrace.” (fro* the Mew York: Herald.) “Our brothers of tits seceded States had best act wisely, if they would act well, No one in the North anticipates a longer war than one or three, or, at farthest six months. At tbe .end ot that period we shall, in all human probability, behold the carcass of the Confederate States bu»g from the dome ol the Capital at Washington, with Davis and Stephens on each side of it, lustead of tbe flying and triumphant folds of the Conteae rate flag. We submit the case to the rebel War Department. It is not yet too l»i*. A little grace, a little patience, and great deal of mercy, await the return and repentance of sinners.’ * From the Nee York Herald. The war will end by the Ith of July. One column ot 50,000 men to Richmond. Another column of it, ooo men to the heart of tbe ■-alley of the Mississippi by Cairo. Still another column into Tennessee and Alabama, via Kentucky, starting from Louisville, A Gulf squadron at New Orleans. An ocean fleet before Charleston. Thus, -a* three months, tbe anaconda it complete, treason is squelched, rebellion crushed, law re-estab lished, order restored, the Union -reigns, and the stars and stripes float again in triumph e’er tbe “land of ths fret and the home ot ihe brave. Arrival at Washikoton -The steamship R- E. Lee, formerly the Giraffe, arrived at Wilmington on Wednesday morning from Ber muda, with dates to the 21at ult. Tbe R. E. Lee brings a valuable cargo on Confederate account. The steamship Cornu bia, arrived at St. Georges, Bermuda, on tbe 2 let. From Enrnvt The steamship Europe, liorn Liverpool, on the 18th ult,, via Queen-down on the 19. b, ar rived at New York on the 30th ult. The fol lowing is a summary of ber news : On the 19tb iustaut a deputation of ship pers and merchant* interested iu the Mexi can trade waited on Ear! Russel. The im portance es the interview was considerably enhanced by the announcement being made during its progress that while <he United States Government have been seizing British vessels bound to Maiamoras without any con traband of war being on board ot them, Mr. Adams has been giving a special license lor a ship to proceed irom England to Matamo ras, tret from any interlerence by American cruisers, to carry supplies, wuich are staled to cousist of arms au,i amuuidon for the Mex icans in their wa. wiib France. It was also shown that the interlerence oi the Federal cruizers. with the Mexicau trade had tbe effect of enabling the Americans to establish a monopoly. Tbe immediate object ot the deputation was to elicit from tne Govern spiu some assurance of protection for ihe steamer Sea Queen, which is detained at Fal month waiting the decision ol the Govern ment. A suggestion was made for tbe Govern ment to send a mail ugent iu tbe ship who would represent an official guarantee that she was bound to the port lor winch she cleared. Earl Russell promised to consider the proposal. He expressed much surprise on bearing of the detention of officers and supercagoes on board the I’eterhoff, they not being criminals or subject ,to criminal laws. A policy of insurance was aliempled to be effected at Lloyds on the 16cb, the vessel being furnished with certificates from Minis ter Adams, addressed to Admiral Dupont, dated Irom the United Slates L-gatiou, Lon don, aßd stating that Messrs. Howell &, Tid man had furnished Mr. Adams with evidence that tbe vessel was really bound to Matarno ras with a cargo for the Mexicans, and lie therefore cheerfully gave them certificates at their request. The Times’ editorial sa. a; “Mr. Adams has transferred the policy of the Mexican land frontier to English porta of shipment by a system ot .passes tor Eng lish gootlo and merchandise, without which they are not to reach the Mexican coast. The safeguard be has granted evidently has a money valnc, since it was produced at Lloyds in order to obtain insurance, if it was likely to reduce the premium it gave shippers an unfair advantage over all firms to which Mr. Adams, Irom caprice or misin formation, might refuse his pass, But the commerce of England will not accept ex emption *bat gives it freedom es action on an American ticket of leave. All the coast of Mexico is neutral territory, an’d by no right can one of its ports be blockaded, in continuing our commercial intercourse with Mexico, wo deny even tbe liability to nay detention or interruption. The traffic is le gitima.e aud pannpt be carried on in the fet ters of permits and certificates from the Uni ted States legation. English merchants can not go as suppliants to foreign ministers for licenses to transact business. The whole proceeding is monstrous, whether as a calcu lation or a blunder.” It pronounces Mr. Adams' letter to Ad miral Dupont, exempting a curtain ship tor Mexico from England, aud calls it an arro gant assumption. It says there has been nothing equal to it eiupe Fapish bolls were issued from Rome overriding tbe laws oi England. It adds: “The exercise of the slightest aantbority by foreign ministers ’in England is not to be permitted tor one mo ineut after tbe assumption of power, either condemuing or absolving, ia made known.” The Daily News says ; “There otn be no doubt that the irritatio ii between England and the United Elates is gradually increasing. There are unquesticn ably faults ou bath sides. But, except in the case ot the Alabama, it is impossible to point to any one act which offe-s jiiot ground ol complaint, Bussell is no doubt determin ed to do al( he can to prevent another Ala bama affair, But unless his efforts aie sup ported by public opinion they will be una vailing. And certainly unless the temper ot the country alters, it is difficult to see how it can be avoided.” The same paper also Bays : There is an impression that the Confeder ate Government potto»warrants are iu cir culation iu England ; but jt ip announced that such of these documents as were crea ted previous to the Confederate loan have been reduced through the medium of that operation, Napoleon had addressed an autograph let ter to the Queen of Spain in rather pressing terms on belialf of the imprisoned .Protes tants. The following paragraph 1 appeared in the M oniteur, anu it has attract* and considerable attention : , "The growing hostility ol the United States toward England is exciting qoeaslqess iu London. Tho last dispatches from the Wash ington Government have a character of in - creasing irritation.” In the House nfCommous, on the 16th. Mr. Ilorsfai! gave notice of his intention to call at tention to the seizure of the gunboat Alexan dria at Liverpool. Lord R. Cecil asked if it Vras true that apiiis bad been sent to Liverpool to watch the dock yards and the Confederate agents ? Sir G Gray denied that any spies had been employed by the Government. Fumiae at the South, Iu spite of aii the efforts of Confederate journals, North and South, to conceal the fact, or deprive it of importance, no doubt remams that very seriou, bread riots have taken place in Richmond, and other South ern towns. In tfiese riots the women have been the leaders, and must have been the cause ot them. Women do not get up street riots, break open provision shops, aud pil lage bakeries ar.d flour stores from political sympathies, nor Irom resentment against high prices. When their children are in peril of Starvation they become capable of anything. Nothing short of that extremity can Lave provoked tbe demonstrations ad mitted by tbe rebel papers to have taken plaoe iajiiuhinoud, in Raleigh, iu Salisbury, and many other Southern towns. In each of these cases the rioters were women —“mostly soldiers’ wives,” say ihe North Carolina papers, that give account of the latest transactions. And these papers, more honest than those at Richmond, candid ly admit that the wonieu were prompted by hunger, their spirit sharpened, *perhap». by “hatred against speculators.’' The women armed themselve* with hatchets and axes, broke open stores that were not willingly opened to them, and took barrels ot Bah. flour and molasses, which they had hauled to the market house and divided equally be tween those who needed it. This was a real hunger riot, and no cloak for indiscriminate robbery, as pretended in Riot-mond. The Raleigh, N. C„ Standard, in giving ah ac count of it. exclaims with fueling and with despair : “Bread riots have commenced, and where they will end God oily know.-.” We do not wish or expect to create hopes of advantage over the rebellion by the mere representation of scarcity of provisions in thasSoatb, The beet reliance—as it is, in deed, tbe only one—that a wise nod power- ful government should have, is Ihe arm of military power delivering irresistible htows upon the enemy in the Held. But it is cer tainty sound policy to consider the physical condition of the enemy we are contending with, and take advantage of anv moment of weakness aud exhaustion that may come upon him. That time with tbe rebels we surely believe is note. We have cumulative evidence that a scarcity ol lood, never be fore paralleled, exists in the South, that is weakening the rebel army, disturbing the rebel rulers, and upturning the most inveter ate tradiiions anfftisages ol Southern society. This is the time, then, to press our armies upon (he enemy, and still further disturb aud disorganize his agriculture. Two months hence it may be too late. He may then have harvested his crops, and passed the point ol fam ne.— N. Y. Times. WANTED. OLD or New Copper by inman, Coij: k co., • w* 5 if Fra/iklm building. Salt!
