A SOul-Stirring Appeal.

We call the attention of the young men of the
State to the soulstirrng appeal in paper today
of the Rev. James Sinclair, the Chaplain of the 9TH
regiment of State troops
Mr.. Sinclair is engaged in raising battalion to
drive the enemy from our borders He fought like
brave man long and well" on the plains of Ma
nassas, and received the highest concentrations
from such chieftains as Longstreet and Beauregard
for his important services on that memorable day.
A Christian soldier, he has thrown all his ener-
gies into this conflict for Southern liberty. We
have no doubt that his battalion will be speedily
raised and we trust the authorities will extend to
him all the aid in their power.

five millions, is now set down at ten millions. After
such contribution we hope Greedy and others will

self to the respect and patronage of all the friends
of order, law and good government We fear it has
recently fallen under the malign influences of the

OF the Supreme Court upon the stay-law, upon
which We animadverted IN much more moderate
terms than it deserved, bore strong evidences Of
that evil influence.
Its recent reply to our notice exhibits this spirit
m worse form, if possible Its article entire is
marked by ungenteel, false, and disingenuous in
ferences from our article. 1t is throughout a con-
temptible bubble, betraying an amount of vanity
and ignorance of the law and of the Constitution,
which we did not expect to see in that Journal
The article, therefore, does not merit review.

COMPENSATION TO THE MARsHALs.-A friend and
correspondent has called to the fact that
the Marshal and his assistants who took the census
under the Lincoln government, have been paid only
one-half the amount due them for their services
The Confederate government will avail itself Of
much of the information obtained by the Marshal
and his assistants, and this being the case it would
seem but fair and just that they should be paid in
full for their labor. This subject will no doubt in
due time engage the attention of the government
and we feel sure that justice will be done.
