See ^^Advertisement. fi EXTORTION. We have heard .with astonishment re- ? centlv, of a new species of extortion, w Some former subscribers to this paper k ?happily but few?have, we understand, ^ discontinued their patronage, because Q. "Our Corpo xl" has failed in a few in- w stances to have an army letter in each c< number; notwithstanding the fact that el he has frequently had more than one, & and sometimes as many as three letters p > in the same number. Such men ask w too much?they ask next to an impossi- b bility. They forget that our corres- p pondent has the duties of a soldier to perform ; that he is hundreds of miles ei away, and that the mails frequently de- tl tain his letters, when he has found time to write. Occasionally, too, there is nothing worth writing about, except p( such things as cannot be spoken of with ti propriety. These men are simply parsimonious and greedy ; they would extort, if they knew how. The wonder to many, who take a generous and liberal view of the matter, is that "Our p Corporal" has been able to write as much as he has done. His correspondence has been as regular as that of any flamy-editor we know of; and we are glad to say that he has given entire satisfac- j8 tion to all, except the few who ought to be ashamed of their complaints. b THE PLANTING SEASON. " We again urge upon the agricultural o: readers of the Enquirer, not only the ii vital importance but the absolute necessity of planting large provision crops 1 the present season. A -goodly portion q of the productive industry of the South r* is now in the arm v. At the same time ^ rl thousands upon thousands of her best aores are overrun and occunied bv the _ UTCtfj it rcttl ctruij^j at i itucnv;ivouuigj md in advance of the city, in Stafford :ounty. Another army, under General jongstreet, passed through Culpepper lourt House on Saturday last. It is aid to have presented a splendid ap>earance. It consisted of several brigtdes. Gen. Jackson, at the head of he left wing of the army of the Potonac, is at Mount Jackson, fifty miles his side of Winchester; his force is in idmirable condition. The whole of Virginia north of James river is teemng with soldiers. The volunteering iurpasses all expectation or previous )clief. The soldiers and officers returnng to their regiments fill all the roads. Che whole army is burning for a fight vith the enemy, and some of the most :erious work ever done in warfare is soon o be witnessed. ?? >? The Cabinet, Richmond, March 18.?The Cabinet s formed, the Senate having confirmed he appointments this morning. G. >V. Randolph, of Virginia, Secretary >f War; Thomas H. Watts, of Alabama, Ittorney-General; J. P. Benjamin, secretary of State; C. G. Memminger, Secretary of the Treasury; S. R. Malory, Secretary of the Navy;" John H. leagan, Postmaster-General. """ "" I ^ p Tsnemy. The regions from which sup- w plies of horses, mules, hogs, cattle, hay, ai &c., have reached us heretofore, are now, to a great extent, in their posses- tj sion. Without these necessaries we cannot maintain our independence; and \ in order to secure them, we must raise fi 1 immense quantities of everything that will sustain animal life. u Besides, the army must be fed. Here n we wish to say one word to the ladies, o: Plant vegetables?potatoes, onions, cab- a bages, tomattoes, beets, &c., &c.,?un- ^ til your gardens groan under the pre- ^ cious crop; and the soldiers will grow C fat over the luxuries you send them, f< and call you blessed after harvest-home. ^ Every thrifty housewife knows how far the garden is available in the mainte- ^ nance of the family. It can be made b a powerful means pf achieving our in- b dependence, by removing much of the * disease and. suffering entailed by an exclusively meat-and-bread diet, by fur- 1 nishing the soldier with home-luxuries, and by thus keeping fresh and ardent his devotion to the cause. Let it be the spirit pervading the whole community, t to provide the amplest subsistence for F man and beast. This course will give g leisure for the manufacture of cloth? 1 as essential as food in our present con- t dition ; will establish a sense of inde- ^ pendence in the minds of the people, ? by showing them the extent of their re- ] sources, and their ability to live with- ( out the patronage of England or France, s or any other country; will develop our 1 sinews of war, and be the prelude to the t "song of our deliverance." i .. ? ? - f ii ? i Important from the West. n Memphis, March UU.?At Island 1 No 10, the enemy commenced shelling i our works, on Saturday, the loth, at s long distance, and renewed it again on 1 Sunday. On Monday, they brought i down eight gun-boats and gix mortar ' boats, and commenced again, with three a of their gun-boats lashed together, and g made a desperate attack on Captain t Rucker's battery. The firing was terrific. Lieut. Clarke, of Capt. Rucker's battery, was killed, but no others. The battery sustained considerable inj ury du- i ring the four days' bombardment. One * of the enemy's gun-boats was disabled ^ on Monday, and was towed back.? c Other boats were struck, but the extent 1 of the damage is not known. Our troops ? conducted themselves with great spirit ' and resolution. The river is falling 1 slowly at the island. J A special dispatch to a city paper ys that Sergeant Kittle, of McCulch's Brigade, having escaped from 1 e Yankees, reached Fort Smith on s e 19th instant and reports the ene- j y's loss in killed and wounded at .t 000.

Memphis, March 21.?A steamer < om up the river brings intelligence i lat the Yankees are moving down the ] I est bank slowly. ] Information was received here this \ lorningfrom Corinth, Mississippi, that 1 le Yankees are retiring to theTennes- 1 je river. i Occupation of Paris, Tennessee. We find the following in the Memphis L/yitO UJL bU\/ xvwu On Tuesday evening last, at five o'- , Sock, the Federals marched into Paris t ithout receiving any formidable resis- , tnce. Their entire force, all told, did ( ot exceed two hundred and fifty. Capt. ( ling's cavalry had been stationed east , f Paris for some time?to prevent the -1 lemy's approach. It is stated that the Federals found j ar pickets playing a small game of draw" when they came upon them.? . hey were taken prisoners without the ! ring of a single shot. Capt. Stocks, King andMcCutcheon ave the Federals a slight brush, killing iree, mortally wounding two and badly ounding eight. Our loss was two illed and eight wounded slightly. The 'ederals had one cavalry and one artil:ry company. The artillery consisted f twelve guns, six and twelve pounders, ith which they shelled our camp, sucsssfully putting to flight the Confedrates. Our men it is stated acted disracefully. The Federals passed through the rincipal streets with their artillery and ent out several miles to camp. They ave reinforcements which, no doubt, ave reached the "squad" which took 'aris. Thp pit.i7.0ns of Paris trave them no ricourageujent?not even a cheer as ley paraded the streets. Proper mangement would have resulted in the agging of the whole party. The agent at Paris telegraphed Suerintenaent Jones yesterday to stop ains for that point. Mr. H. W. Bryson, our fellow-citi- . sn, witnessed the occupation of Paris y the Federals, and-we are indebted to im for the foregoing particulars. A Skirmish ox the Potomac.?The ynchburg Virginian, of the 22nd, has le following: We have been reliably informed that 1 cavalry fight occurred about nine liles below Warrenton Station, on the 'range and Alexandria Railroad, the itter part of last week. Our inforlant did not state the day it occurred; j at there can be no doubt as to the uth of the report, as our information as derived through Mr. Thomas Yuille, f Campbell County, who was wounded 1 the engagement. The particulars as < ir as we were able to ascertain, were lese: A force of three hundred Coniderate cavalry, under command of reneral Stuart, who were protecting the ?ar of our army in their retreat from lanassas, were attacked by five hunred Yankee cavalry at the point amed. We lost six killed. The only erson killed on our side whose name e have heard, was Mr. Thomas Waller, n officer in the Amherst Rangers. The enemy's loss was 40 killed, and 00 prisoners captured, together with leir horses, arms, equipments, &c. Since writing the above we have seen [r. Yuille, who was wounded in the 1 i ? i ii - gilt, ana irora mm we receiveu me iui>wing particulars: The engagement took place on Satrday last. The enemy's cavalry, who umbered about 500, were within sight f our forces when Gen. Stuart ordered nd led the charge upon them. The >rces engaged on our side were Capt. Idgar Whitehead's company, of Amerst, and Capt. Harris' company, of lampbell, under command of Col. Rad>rd, and four companies of the Second rirginia Cavalry, under command of !ol. Jones. The number of the enemy's wounded as not ascertained, but it must have een large. There were known to have een killed 40, and captured 100, with heir horses, &c., which were brought o Culpeper Court House, on Saturday. The loss on our side is six killed and 80 wounded. Virginia News. The Richmond Examiner says: Though we have no news of battles, he military news of yesterday was imlortant and interesting. The Virginia s still at Norfolk, and the Yankees are aid to be sinking hulks about Newport Jews to prevent her free movements in hose waters. We have a very large 1 A Speech from Mr. Yancey. Hon, W. L. Yancey, who has recent- w y returned from his unsuccessful mis- s< ion abroad, made a short speech last tl Thursday night at the St. Charles Ho- c el, New Orleans. We copy from the a Delta the following sketch of his re- n narks : It was one year, lacking two days, p since he had quit our shores, and he li was glad to stand among his country- v nan again. He came back convinced c ;hat we had no friends in Europe, that o we must fight the battle alone, and rely ii )nly on our firm hearts. (Applause.) I They looked coldly on the South be- ii jause of its slavery institutions. There I was not a country in Europe who sympathized with us. Even the great p principles of our revolution were not o inderstood by them, any more than f t>y the Northerners, who have never a been able to seize the true spirit of our r institutions. With the North, Europe believed in the unqualified supremacy t :>f government, not understanding that d government is made for the people.? s Ihey have, therefore, no friendship for 1 aor sympathy with us; neither have * ? .1 wt .1 mi i they, however lor the i>ortn. xney l regard the North as a people menda- p cious, unjust, and hypocritical. They io not believe a word said by the people, the press, the Cabinet, or the Pres- 1 ident. Europeans are prejudiced a- f gainst slavery, but they do not wish to f deprive men of their property without honestly paying for it; they have no s idea of cutting the chains of bondage I with a lawless sword. They have die- 1 covered the Northern motive in this < war to be political, not social; not a J strong principle against wrong, but a 1 determination to ride. Having, there- ^ fore, no sympathy for us, and turning 1 with honest contempt from the hypo- 1 critical Yankee, they would look with * positive indifference on the contest, but * for their own interests involved. They desire to cripple a dangerous rival.? ? This country was getting too vigorous, * and they are determined that it shall I forever remain separated. They would ( never allow the South to be subjugated, t and would interfere to prevent such a result, but that they feel certain it can- * not be accomplished. They know and I say the *South will be free. In the * meantime, they wish to see the war J drag on until each side is thoroughly exhausted and overwhelmed with a debt * which shall crush its energies for years, or if possible, for ages to come. To further this policy they ignore the well established fact that the blockade has been run at least a thousand times.? They set aside, practically as against us, the plainest behests of the European treaty which fixes the law of blockade. They are determined, in the face of all law, of all equity, of all humanity, not to recognize us until the last possible moment, and will never do so until they see our blood-reeking sword stretched over a conquered and prostrate North. As to the blockade, said Mr. Yancey, I don't know that we should want it raised. If it continued six months longer, he would not, on any consideration wish such a misfortune as that it should be raised. By that time our internal energies will have been developed, our manufactures established, and he had such confidence in the ingenuity and enterprise of our people as to believe them capable of attaining, within themselves, all necessary ends. As to luxu- , ries, indulgence in them was not becoming to a people laboring in the very , throes of a heroic struggle. Various causes had hitherto prevented the forcible raising of the blockade. In the j first place, when the blockade commen- . ced to take effect, immense stocks of cotton were in the hands of the wealthiest manufacturers. Those men had the ear of Government, and it was decidedly to their interest that the block- j ade should continue until their stock on hand was sold at exorbitant prices.? Government, too, was the. more willing to listen to them, because it was desir- , ous of fostering the production of cotton outside of the Southern States, * even at the expense of heavy temporary suffering at home. ! Our principal ground of miscalcula- ( tion here as to the blockade had been T the idea that cotton is king. If by this ] it is understood American cotto&, it is ] a fallacy. American cotton certainly j plays a mighty part in the commerce < of the world, but it has not absolute s sway, because the staple is raised too abundantly elsewhere. For hundreds of years India has raised as much cot- ] ton as the South now does. There is , probably no one thing in the world which grows so universally as cotton. < Europe, therefore, was willing to take i advantage of the crisis to enfranchise i herself from our sway at almost any ] cost, but she has found the ordeal too ] severe. India cotton is too dear, and 1 the whole machinery of their immense * manufactories would have to be changed to suit the staple. Orleans middling has been found by experience to be the only thing that will exactly do, and the supply of that will be exhausted by ; the 1st of April. Then, when a starving population rises arouild their thrones, with the words, "Cotton or blood," the blockade will be raised. ] Here Mr. Yancey was asked by a ( gentleman whether Mr. Seward's prom- 1 ise to open a cotton port had not had great weight? Mr. Yancey replied 1 emphatically, no. They did not believe one word lie said. They believed the Yankees to be a nation of mendacious liars. It was impossible now in Europe to get at the truth of things over here. Facts got there filtrated through the medium of Northern pa pers, and the strength was all gone.? No Southern journal was allowed to search them, and that indeed it had been so to a great extent before the war.? People there got their ideas of the South from New York papers and Boston literateurs. They gave us credit for being a brave people, determined to be free, but reckless of life, somewhat inhuman to slaves, and at best, semi-civilized ; and that our sense of individuality went so far that each man considered his will as paramount to the law.? We cannot look for any sympathy or help from abroad. We must rely upon ourselves alone. ?- , Plant corn and be free, or plant cotton and be whipped. Richmond, March 23.-r A resolution as introduced in the House of Represntatives and adopted to day, directing lie Secretary of War to pay out of the ontingent fund money for the aid nd relief of the Confederate soldiers ow in the hands of the enemy. Norfolk, March 24.?Twenty transorts and steamers entered the Roads ist evening-L4ffl excepting one painted rhite. A crowd of troops apparently ame across the bay from the direction f the Eastern shore, supposed to reaforce Burnside or attack Magruder. letween ninety and one hundred sailag vessels and steamers were in the toads yesterday. Richmond, March 24.?The House lassed a resolution declaring all army ffiers, whether holding State or Conederate commissions, ineligible to seats & Congressmen. They must either esign their commissions or their seats. The Yankees are landing wagons, aggage trains, &c., at Newbern, and lecisive battles are expected at Kinton, North Carolina, and Suffolk, Virginia, in a few days. Tfig Yankees are said to be going iack to Winchester, and Jackson is ?ursuing them. n T? A DESIGNS OF THE OlMVSS rums -tt-iJUjtionists.?The following article is rom the Chicago Times, and speaks or itself: No concealment is now attempted, ays a contemporary, by the radical >arty of their views of the Union. It s deliberately laid down, boldly stated, :ontinually reiterated in their public ournals and their private conversation, n their speeches and letters, that the [Jnion is destroyed, and that they have 10 idea to see it reconstructed. The nask is off at last. We have seen them 'or some months attempting to blind he public by the foolish question :? 'Do you prefer slavery to the Union ?" is if there was any such issue now beore us. But a few weeks ago the lublic began to urge on them the true question: "Do you prefer the abolition of slavery to the Union ?" The professed patriots at first sought ,o avoid the issue, and at length, in desjair of sustaining any longer their loubtful professions of loyalty, plunged nto the fatal vortex of disunionism.? They now say they would not consent ;o restore the Union as it was a year igo. They speak of it with horror, as i covenant with death and a league vith hell, which they would not consent ;o renew. We do not exaggerate. Every word ve say is susceptible of abundant proof 'rom the columns of the radical party lapers of the past two weeks. The lay is forever past when they can claim, vith any Show of truth or sincerity, to >e loyal to the constitution and the Union, and they must be, as they vir" < . - t _ _i_ 1 ?:iU tU. uany consent to oe, ciatwtm wnu iuc enemies of both. Yankee Expectation. The evacuation of Manassas has so nuch elated the Yankees that they think he rebellion well nigh "crushed." The iews imparted a buoyant feeling to Nall street, and stocks took a sudden ise. The New York Herald, in a long irticleon the Federal occupation of Malassas, says: The evacuation of Manassas is virtuilly the end of the rebellion in Virginia, ind the restoration of that State to the Union. With the close pursuit of the etreating rebel army which will doubtess follow we may now reasonably count upon the final collapse of the vagrant Government of Jeff. Davis before ;he 1st of May, and the re-opening of ;he whole South and its great commercial staples to the markets of the world. With the prospects of our subjuga;ion before its eyes, the Philadelphia Press is discussing how the rebels are to >e treated. This Black Republican cracle gives little comfort to the press, is we are well told, in the event of their victory, what we may expect of our Yankee task-masters in the following paragraph : It is suggested that, as our armies tdvance into the South, all the rebel ournals shall be immediately suppressed, and the types, machinery and paper lsed to publish Union newspapers.? Nashville, Memphis, Richmond, Charestcn, Mobile and Savannah will be ine fields for such enterprises as these. 3ur troops would liberally patronize all rnch papers. The Creat ures we have to Fight.

Very respectfully, your ob't serv't, (Signed) WM. II. REYNOLDS, Lieut. Col. 1st Reg. R. I. Artillery, U. S. Resident Agent. Throwing off the Mask. We learn from the Northern papers that Lincoln has sent in to Congress j special message, recommending the e mancipation of the slaves of the South, and promising national aid to sucl States as would rid themselves of slavery. A long and interesting debate oc curred in the Yankee House of Representatives, when the recommendatior was passed by a vote of 88 to 31. The people of the South now see th( prospect before them, should the enemj succeed in overrunning our land. Suet a nefarious scheme as that contemplates in the above recommendation shoulc rouse the South, and nerve the heart and arm of every man within her borders to strike a crushing blow against the invaders. The defensive policj must novr be abandoned, and wherevei a blow can be struck with effect it must be done. Our watchword must < now be "victory or death." < ^ Martial Law in New Orleans. ( . Gen. Lovell proclaimed martial law ] in New Orleans last Saturday. The i Crescent says the proclamation was ] well received by the citizens, and has j been productive of good results. In- ] deed, many who were at first opposed j to such, a stringent measure, now ac- ] knowledge its happy effects, and are , perfectly satisfied. The appointment ( of Messrs. Wm. Ferret, Cyperian Du- , four, Pirre Soule and Henry D. Ogden, , as Provost Marshals for the city, fully meets the expectations of the commur ' nity, and universal satisfaction is the , consequence. Gen. Lovell could not , have made better selections. The gentlemen named enjoy the full confidence of the good people of New Orleans in ; all respects, and they will discharge their duties faithfully, ably and patriotically. From Tennessee. Memphis, March 22.?-The steamer Mears, from up the river, reports the enemy at Old River Lake, six miles below Tiptonville, apd that they are building rafts, hoping to be able to put a body of infantry on the east side of the river. The enemy shelled Island No. 10 yesterday, but no damage was done.? They never stay long within the range of our guns. They hope to pass Island No. 10 some foggy night. The Return of Captain Chubb.? Captain Chubb, the officer who was captured by the Federal navy off Galveston, after a gallant defenc6 of the Royal Yacht, which commander, has arrived in this city, and we believe is on his way to Texas. He is convinced that the entire North is thoroughly bent on conquering us, and that it behooves us to make ready on land and sea, else we will certainly suffer disasters from the energy and perseverance with which they will carry on the war. ?New Orleans Delta. The Nashville Sailed.?We learn frQm the North" Carolina papers that the steamer Nashville went to sea on last Monday evening, in defiance of two blockading steamers off Fort Macon.? She passed between them, having been fired at some thirty times by the blockaders. The Nashville is now, no doubt, safe from the clutches of Burnside and the blockaders. We learn that it is said , to have been the intention of Burnside to attempt to capture the Nashville on Tuesday last.?Q-uardian. Rumored Landing.?The Savannah Republican of Friday gives the following account: Official information was received yesterday of the landing of one thousand of the enemy at Bluffton, early in the morning. Later accounts, brought by ?? ??- a r^Lnul Iwom of of O pUSSUXigertJ UII tUC vaancuivu tiuuij uiruvv that a courier arrived at Hardeeville in the afternoon with intelligence that fifteen thousand had landed from their steamboats and were preparing for a march upon the railroad. Later accounts report them as having retreated. The Augusta Constitutionalist, referring to the appeal of Gov. Pickens in behalf of provision crops, says: The importance of planting largely , of provisions the present year cannot be too freequently placed before the farmers and planters of the South. A full crop of cotton is the certain down, fall of the South; a bountiful supply of provisions is to secure her safety and . independence. * I Let patriotic planters everywhere unite in enforcing these views. . . JX' ? ?? A Long Bill to Pay.?The Memphis Appeal learns from citizens of Columbus, Ky., that the Federals, when they took possession of that place, immediately seized all the sugar, molasses and tobacco in the hands of private citizens; and the declaration was publicly made that the expenses of the war must be paid by the South, and that all property of the Confederate States, so far as it should come within their control, would be used for that purpose. Gen. McClellan to be Suspended. i ?The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune writes: We have authority for saying that within twenty-four hours Gen. McClellan will cease to be in form, as he has for some time ceased to be in fact, the commander-in-chief of the Union forces. An order to be issued to-morrow will 1 date a new era in the history of this ' war. A Slight Brush.?The Federals in ascending the Tennessee river, ran unawares upon our battery at Chickasaw, on the 12th. They were saluted with a broadside, disabling one of their gunboats and striking another. The visitation of such unexpected courtesies was not acceptable. They returned the compliment, but it was of the harmless character. Somebody was hurt, but not on our side. jggy* Private letters from Nashville, Tennessee, state that the Yankees lost over four hundred men since their occu1 pation of that city. The picket duty 1 of the" enemy is done by brigades; eve' ry straggler is taken off. It is said that but few stores are kept open in the city, and that scarcely any one is to be seen on the streets. Appointment. We understand that Adjutant-General States R. Gist has been appointed j by President Davis a Brigadier-Genet ral in the Provisional Army of the Confederate States. The appointment is ajudicious one, as Gen. Gist is a clear[ headed, accomplished military man and an estimable gentleman*?Carolinian/ Fallen Back.?It was rumored" Monday, and as we happen to know, ' says the Lynchburg Virginian, upon the authority of those who ought to be 5 informed, that the eneniy had fallen r back from Manassas to the Potomac, 1 suspecting that Johnston was laying a j trap for them. ; jggp* The Charlotte Bulletin states . that Col. M. C. Avery and Col. R. : Hoke are not killed. The former was r taken prisoner, and the latter escaped and had arrived in Kingston. A True Patriot?The Late Bish3p Meade.?An affecting incident occurred during the closing hours of the late venerable bishop of the Episcopal Church in Virginia.. A distinguished leader of the Confederate army, whom the good bishop had known from his boyhood, was present, and with his dying accents he thus addressed him : "I bave known you, general, from a boy, and have always loved you. You know bow slow my mind was in coming to the conclusion I have held from the moment of Virginia's secession. But, sir, (with great solemnity,) it is a righteous cause ; it is a righteous cause. Do your utmost for that cause. You are a Christian soldier. Trust in God, and (laying his hands on his head, as Jacob of old laid his hands on the head of Joseph) God will bless you." The stern soldier's face was bathed in tears, as were the faces of all present. The words were uttered with the hesitating utterance and solemn aspect of a dying man. Who can doubt his i .1 duty wnen ne nears sucn a man tnus speak, one whose life was illustrious for piety, virtue, and wisdom, and who had been all his life long, up to the hour of Lincoln's proclamation, one of the strongest Union men in Virginia. Drunken Officers.?If a common soldier is found drunk he is sent to the guard house and severely punished, but officers may drink to excess, and may be seen time and again under the influence of ardent spirits, and yet no steps lire taken to remove these officers from their commands, or even to censure them. Strong drink, when excessively indulged in, blunts the moral sense, unbalances and stupefies the judgment, and renders its unhappy victim unfit foi any employment. Let action be taker in relation to officers as well as soldiers Let the army be purged of profligate! and drunkards. We have sufferei greatly already on account of incompe tency, drunkenness and sloth in our ar mies. Let the authorities look to thes< things. If they should fail to supply the remedy, they will be held responsi ble by an injured and indignant people Raleigh Standard. Position of England.?Mr. Ben tinck, an influential member of Parlia ment, suggested, in debate, that if th< blockade was not efficient, English neu trality was tantamount to miervenuoi in favor of the North. There is n< doubt of this. The South is cut off fron Europe, and the Yankees have free ac cess, and are privileged to buy all tb implements of war they desire or ar< able. The effect of this is to make En glish neutrality equivalent to hostility to us. Lord John Russell affects, how ever, not to see it in this light; an< will not see it, until we shall be able t< do without his assistance. Like all hu manitarians, he is heartless and selfish and would sacrifice all human happinesi in pursuit of a crotchet. If we are wis< we will leave him to himself, and pa^ jour addresses to that great Power be yond the channel, which can be induced both by its own and our interests, ti render us effective aid. Richmond Whig. Patriotic Negroes.?A portion o Col. L. A. Jordan's negroes, hearin/ that he had a company on the coas named after him, made with their owi | hands, presented, through their master to Lieut. Moffett, of the Jordan Greys seventy-two pairs of socks, part woo and part cotton. MilledgeviUe Recorder. J?* The New York Herald, of th 12th, announces its European editioi ready for the steamer to sail that day Among other attractive topics, it adver tises the "Naval Engagement near For tress Monroe?The Rebel Fleet Bis abled and Driven Back." This is : fair sample of the news the Yankee send out to Europe. jg?* We see frequent articles in tb papers advising the cultivation of to matoes in large quantities for the camps It is believed that to issue them to th army next summer as a part of tb rations will prevent many cases of fe ver, diarrhoea and dysentary. At Work.?The penitentiary ha repaired and put in first rate orde nearly a thousand muskets, says th Milledgeville Recorder, within the pas month or two. The armory will begii in a few days to manufacture muskets Capt. John H. Morgan, th dashing hero, owned property to th amount of $300,000 at the commmence ment of the war. That has been con fiscated, and he is now wifeless, child less and homeless.
