yyI,nt is our Duty.

In these perilous times, when organ

is the duty of every good citizcn?-
Manfully to do all in his power TO aid
the constitutional authorities in their
efforts to maintain in all its integrity,
the Union as our fathers made it. This
is the only object of the war on our part.
Had there been no violations of the laws
by the southern members Of the republic,
there world now be no wal--thcrc would
be no occasion for war. To conn pei
,ubordination to the constitution and
obedience to the luw~, the government is
now in arms. 1t has announced Us lis war
policy the accomplishment OF these OBJ
icrt., aNd nothing else, and has declared
that when they are secured the war
should cease. Can the presentation Of
other issues, or the attempt to force the
rovernm Mt to make other issues, have
any other effect than to embarrass the
administration? VIII the violation oil

The EIeciiOnsOn the 6th OF November.
The fist general election in the Confederate
States, under the permanent Constitution, will be
held On the 9th Of November. A President, Vice
President and Representatives to the Confederate
Congress will be chosen at that election.
This election will be the virtual Inauguration Of
the Permanent Government of the Confederate
States, because it will give expression to the will
Of Ike people, as to the agents they will prefer, to
ca ny that Government into operation.
The revolution, which has been prosecuted in the
Southern States, to throw off the usurped Govern
nent Of the North WILL by this election, be an ac-
complished fact The machinery will have been
completed to put into operation a new and pure
Government having for its foundation the princi-
pie hat were the basis of the Constitution under
which we have heretofore lived The civilized ma.
ti0n~ cannot but regard this election as the cap
ston- of new Government which has been in pro
cess Of construction ever since the Chicago plat
form has been substituted for the Constitution OF
the Unit,d States We need not be surprised to
with IS an immediate recognition of our indepen-
deu.e by the European Powers after the accom-
Pills ment of this browning act of our independence
OuT rave sons have won the title to independence
BY their swords. The people, speaking with the
M saYereipntv ratify - ~ "hnine of their
MAJ stratss and legislators.
W wish to see this grand act Of Inauguration
scc2 npiished in the moss imposing form, by uni
vera u rally to the polls of the freeman of the Con-
fsdsrate States. 1t is true there is but one cand-
date for each OF the two highest offices known to
the Constitution. The choice of the Confederacy
falls spont ineously upon the two men, who have
been tried and have not beeA found wanting. Yet
let that sovereign voice of the COnfederacy be spo
ken IN the most potential manner.
Let the few secret sympathizers with LINCOLN,
who would weaken the impression Of this demon
straion by staying away from the polls, be effect
ualls and terribly rebuked by the rally of all true
patriots. to tsks part in the first election under
our new and glorious Constitution. And let the
world see by the numbers of that unanimous ballot
how firmly resolved we ere upon our independence
Finally, let each true man have the conscious
ness Of having discharged his whole duty and have
the glorious privilege and pride of transmitting to
his descendants his participation in the frat act of
cors itutonal exercise of his franchise under the
permanent charter Of The Confederacy.

Editors Union and American IA g subscriber
to your valuable paper since left Baltimore, feel
bound to give you some little Information in my
humble way, as to how things are working in this
part of East Tennessee.
There are a great many hogs in this part Of the
State, and believe the farmers generally are vii
ling TO take seven cents gross for them, but there
are SO many hal1ks about that they offering all
kinds of extrayagant prices for them l firmly be-
ieve the Legislature ought to take some action in
relation to these Tory spectators Even the stores
keepers are now charging from two to five hundred
per cent on their last years purchases. saw one
of these gentlemen kindly offer a lady piece OF
common, thin GkatOa flannel, which cost eight and
half cents per yaPd, at the low price cf forty
cents per yard There ought 70 be some little
shame IN them but if they have none. they ought
to be made to do some little justice to the couHu,
nifty and still hope, BY the aid OF yours and other
sheets, we may be able to stop these
plundering gents from r0bbing the Government
and driving the poorer classes to desperation.
Respectfully yours, OBSERVER.

Our latest reliable adviees from General F;Oyd's
command represent that the brigade was encamped
near Raleigh COURTHOUSE, having proceeded so far
on the march towards Coal river over almost i'm
passsbe rosds The men were in good spirits and
delighted with the prospect meeting the enemy
once more, before the campaign is interrupted by
the SHOWS of the coming winter The Qusrtermas-
ter of the brigade Capt R G. Banks. Jr, has ae-
compished he difficult work of transportation with
success though the obstacles have been numerous
and his indomitabla energy has called forth the
praise of his commander and brother officers
Accounts from the Northwest state that SIX regl-
ments of the Federal army have gone away from
Cheat Mountain; one Of them TO Huttonsvile one to
Beverly, and four TO parts unknown If this infor-
nation is correct there is but small force of
the enemy on the mountain, The Federals have
some works at Croueh's, on the road from Hunters
vile to HuttonsVle, which it may become necessary
to destroy There is no very recent intelligence
relating the operations of army in that quar-
ter, everything being quiet at last advices. We
have heard of the capture of two Southern men by
the invaders-Capt Hood. late commisssry of the
army in Western Virginia, and DR. ?. H. Yost, who
held the post of surgeon. These gentlemen were
taken in Tucker county, whittier they had gone for
the purpose Of communicating with their families.
