the Rebels and their Designs Upon tho
North. ....s .. rsr.tI.s.
The following extracts of a private letter
from gentlemanin Augusta, Georgia, dated
the I'd inst, addressed to his brother in New
York city, tell their own story; 3d. E .
Our once-pesceful city is now military
camp, and provisions are very scarce and
high, particularly many articles Of necessity
for which we depended on the North, am
afraid that you at the North are deceived
with regard to the object Of the leaders here
toward your quarter. r t
You have been led to believe that the
movements Of the Southern troops are
directed to Washington. If that is your
belief | am afraid you will be deceived.
They are now concentrating a large force at
Richmond and other places in Virginia, for
no other purpose than to invade Pennsyl.
vania, and capture Philadelphia, which they
think they can do in its present defenseless
state Their ostensible object is Washing
ton, and you are collecting large forces
there for its defense, and neglectino other
points, of which they viii take advantage
lget my information from a high source,
but by hints only, which can not commul
nicate in this letter, for if it should fall into
their hands it would not be wall for myself
Could realize cash for my property,
would be with you. for ths rest Of my stay on
earth. Mary and the rest are all anxious to
leave, and retire to place where we will
have little peace and enjoy the privileges
of free people, which is denied us here. You
people at the North are very slow; you pos
sess all the material for an army; with
money, and by acting promptly, you have it
in your power to crush the thing out by in
vadiDg Virginia and holding Richmond, and
making that the battle ground instead Of
Pennsylvania. ,-- ,.r q. .s.|
The first instalment of the Confederate
loan has been taken, but when they call for
more money it will not be had the pocket
patriotism is pretty near exhausted, and
when called upon to pay more they will have
to be content to take deprecated currency,
which will in short time become nothing
more than Continental money. -r.
To sum up, all have to say is, that they
are in very bad way here; provisions are
very high and scarce, and money is not to
be had. When you write to me, leave out
politics, or shall be committed beyond all
nope. . e.

Educational Intelligencer OF tho @otEf
has an editorial of six and half col
umns entitled, ''rhe past, the present
and the FUTURE which is causing sen
sation in political circles here. 1t re-
views the action of the seeding states
severally and jointly, and takes posi-
tive grounds against coercion. or the
employment of force in any wav to re-
store the federal authority. The IN
telligencer's opinion is that the czclt-
ing difficulty can only be settled by
the interpo sition of general conVen-
ton of the states, and that the relation
of the seeding states to the federal
government can only be changed by
their voluntary return to the Union
Failing in that, the editors see no way
gopen but to acknowledge their indie
spendence out of the Union.
1t is said that many republican lead
ers have expressed similar opinions
but it is equally true that they are de,

Election Of Judges.-This day week
first of April there will be general
election throughout the state for judges
of the District courts. In noticing the
fact the Pointe Coupee Echo remarks
Althougha week from next Monday
is the election day, we hear of no excite
ment whatever, nor does there seem to
prevail the slightest interest in the
matter on the part of the people. The
prospect now is that not one-half of the
votes in our parish will be polled, and
whoever is elected Judge will be so by
very small vote. The people are tired
of elections.
AIihtary.-The Echo states that on
Tuesday the Pointe Conpee Rifles made
their first display in full uniform, and
quite a handsome appearance did they
present. The dress is Of gray tweed,
trimmed with green; with blue cloth
caps and green band. The Company
now numbers thirty-tive members.
Bweiagy.-Thes store of Martin Cole
man, in Clinton, was entered last Mon
day night, and various articles of mer-
chandise stracted-tobacco, cigars,

thief or thieves effected their entrance
by crawling under the building and
prying up plank.
The Coming Crops IN Catoho"1a.-
The Harrisonburg Independent of the

The weather for several weeks has

tons, and all work pertaining thereto
is considerably in advance of that at
this period last spring. Planters from
Black river inform us that on several
places corn is in readiness for the first
working, and in a week from this time
II greater portion of the cotton to be
planted will be in the ground. Every
species fvcgctation is rapidly ossum-
ing summer garh, and our gardens
begin to furnish their quota of cdibles
for the table. The mornings of Mon
day and yesterday wore rather cold for

that the peach and plum crop will be
