Seizure of the Brig Elisha Doane by
Georgians. s.---W whereabouts of Gen. Beau
reguard.
A gentleman recently from the South
eDorts the seizure of the brig Elisha
Doane of South Yarmouth, Mass. The
brig was chartered to 60 to the Saltllla
River from Baltimore. Meeting block
ade at the latter place, she sailed for the
Satilla Mills on the Satilla River. When
in Cumberland Sound, she was seized by
body of men in the name OF the citizens
of Georgia, who took her to Brunswick.
Previous to the seizure telegraphlc dis
patch had been sent to Secretary Walker,
of the S. G., asking permission to take
.hevessel, which was refused. The own
ers and Others interested therefore hope
that she may be released. On Friday
last our informant breakfasted at the
same table with Gen. Beaurcgard at At
lanta, Ga. The General subsequently
left for Charleston.
The gentleman who furnishes this In
formation came North, BY way of Allan
ia, Nashville, and Louisville. All the
way to Kentucky the most bitter hatred
toward Northern men was expressed. On
the cars all were Southern Oen-or at
least appeared to be su,h. They express
undoubted ability to crush the North with
slight efforts, having been taught to be-
lieve all Northern men are towards, and
that many Of their 6ghting men are taken
from the prisons. The reports Of an in
surrection among the slaves were moi
credited. A young man who Travelled
with our informa ant was one of the beseig
ing party of Fort Sumter, and be stated
positively that no one was killed among
the Charleston forces.

Base Ingratitude.

It is most probable that the mad at
tempt to break up the Union, which has
been m ade by Southern politicians would
never have been undertaken, il they had
not been sure of the aid of large number
of the officers of the Army and Navy, ed.
ucated at great expense to the Genera
Government. for its especial protection
Personally, these treacherous men owe
everything to the Union. Ihey have
been nurtured and instructed under Its
care; receiving pay while under tuition,
and doing nothing for the benefit OF the
Government; and after being taught the
science and art of war, even while they
were fed, clothed and pampered by too
indulgent parent, they turn like vipers,
and sting the hand that has fed them.
There is no question of Southern rights
u thi-; no abstract notions OF State SOW
ereiguty, but simply matter of honor
and gratitude between bouutitul guar
dian and the receiver of the bounty. An
honorable man might be so sWayed By
local prejudices as to believe that there
was danger that his section of the Union.
being the weakest, might be oppressed by
the stronger one, and Influenced by such
en- opinion be might refuse to bear arms
against his personal friends and relatives;
but be would not plot the destruction OF
his benefactor, and while bound by oath
to defend the Government, turn the wea
pous which it had put into bis bands a.
gsinst the Republic, from whom be had
received so mauy favors In conteupla
ting the condust of such men, we are re
minded of the bitter language of Aonzo,
in DIR. Young's Revenge" when he has
discovered the treachery Of Zauga:
"Lay not your young, o mothers, on the breast
For fear they turn to serpents as they lie,
And sting you for your love-"
1t is not easy to imagine more gross
disreg ard of that sentiment of honor which
lives in every noble breast, than is exhib
tied by these ingrates; and how can those
in whose cause they now fight. ever trust
them Can men who have proved not
merely unfaithful, but malignant enemies
10 Tue boN c'No
rent and friend to them, ever be trusted
where there is any temptation to be
traysl of their trust! No bond hut that
of selfish interest can bind thea, and
when they find it to their advantage to do
SO, they will as recklessly betray those
for whom they now fight, as they have
done the Govern ept of the United States.
These men will fight with the malignan-
cy of feuds against the armies OF the u
Mon; for none hate so cordially as those
whose conscences keep ever present to
their minds the baseness of their conduct
The manly generosity which ever char
acterizes true soldier, need not be ex
peoted from these reprobates to honor and
decency. Their only hope nov is in a
cbieving the reputation of desperately
courageous warriors, for they know that
the cisiIized world will regard them as
traitors to filial duty as we'll as to honor
and honesty.
Much allowance may be made for the
conduct of those who are urged to disloy
al acts BY passion, resentment and preju-
dice; but the cold calculating creature who
betrays bis benefactor can only te regar
ded with loathing and disgust.-Daaly

No More Debts to be Paid.

A proclamation from Governor Brown.
of Georgia, forbids citizens of that State
from paying any debts due to Northern
creditors. The Governor "iuvites citi.
zens who are indebted" to Northern
States to invest their spare cash in Geor-
gia bank stock, or, still better, to "per-
form patriotic duty" By giving it to
the Southern Confederacy for war pur-
poses. He further forbids the protest of
notes by any Georgia banks. Here, then,
is a regularly organized swiDdIe. The
Governor Of Georgia is an adept in the
art Of stealing.
