:" Operations" in Breadstuffs and
Provisions.

We published yesterday very signifi-
cant address from the Mayor of Augusta,
upon the subject of speculative operations
in breadstufis and provisions. The Mayor
evidently feared state of evaporation
which might endanger the public peace.
1t is not our purpose to intimate the ex-
istence of any such danger here or else
where, but it is nevertheless true that the
transactions in breadstuffs and provisions,
evidently for mere purposes of specula-
ton, do excite ill-ieeling at this time, and
should be avoided by prudent and good
men who value the good opinion of their
fellow-citizens. We speak in kindness
and with the best feeling towards all con-
cerned, and at the same time in the earn
est hope that this hint will be taken into
consideration. - .NaeOn Ga. Telegraph,
Oct 26M.
1t is worse than folly to deny that
similar feeling exists in this State. 1t is
patent to every man. The murmuring
of discomfort grows louder every day, and
it is the part OF wisdom and patriotism to
see whether something cannot be done to
avert calamity more dire than the war
which the Lincoln government is waging
upon us.-NashuiM Union.

"The time has come when every man

ter. A dispatch from General cCullough,
from Neosho, says that he has informa-

Federal army is South Of Springfield, and
is marching rapidly towards Fayetteville,
Arkansas. General Price has fallen back
to Neosho, and he and Mccullough had
united their forces, which. are estimated
at 81 900 men. They are falling back into
this State and intend to make stand at
point called the Cross Hollows, II miles
North of Fayetteville. The Federals are
commanded by Fremont, and are vari-
ously estimated at from 10000 to 10000,
and they hope, no doubt, to get South of
our army and cut off reinforcements and
supplies, and afterwards be able to destroy

he is driven to execute this dangerous en-.

will hazard all upon the result of this adj
venture. We have no fears, however, as
to the result. Our army is composed of
the best material in the South, they will
die on the field to man before they will
yield their homes and their cause to
Northern despotism. The Missourians
will fight to redeem their State, and to
avenge their wrongs, while the sons of

And, whereas, with grateful thanks we
recognize His hand, and acknowledge

to Him, that He may set at naught the
efforts OF our enemies, and put them to

The Campaign IN Western Virginia.

The Gallipolis (0.) Dispatch, paper
published on the border of Western Vir-
ginia, does not approve of the suggestion,
which has been made in several quarters,
to withdraw the Yankee army from there
into Kentucky. 1t says: ....., 3
If the forces in Western Virginia are
drawn off at this time and directed else
where, it will be the worst step that can
be taken by the government, unless it is
the intention to give up Virginia. We
regard Western Virginia as being in a
more dangerous condition than for some
months past. Armed bands of Secession
lists are springing up in all directions, and
are only waiting for the Federal troops to
slacken their vigilance, when their works
of havoc will again commence. They are
becoming more desperate and daring IN
their movements than ever. In fact, in
stead of Withdrawing troops, there is
greater need of sending more into Yir-
ginia,

VIM. n Seward.


4 There j. q degree Of pladsibilty in the
following article, as every one who under
stands the man Of whom ittreats, will at
once perceive. It copied from the
Clarksville Chrchaic'
One of the circumstances suspicious to
Southern success is TO be found, we think,
in the towering ambition and undoubted
shrewdness of William III. Seward, whose
energies are directed to the Presidency or
Dictatorship of the North. Giving him
credit for the talents so universally claim
ed for him, it would be palpable denial
OF that claim to suppose that he believes
for a moment, in the possible reconstruc-
ton OF the Union, and If he does not be-
lieve in Its reconstruction it must follow
that his ambition is to rule the North
alone How. then, is he to compass the
end in view2 Simply by seeing to it that
no military man shall, by the brilliancy,of
his exploits, supplant him in the afiec-
tons Of the Northern hordes. Knowing
that the South can not be conquered, he
looks to every defeat of the Northern ar.
my as step towards peace, as well as the
removal OF a rival, and awaits, with cool
indifference, the moment when the peo-
pie of the North shall demand a cessation
of hostilities, and look TO him as the great
civilian who is to bring order out OF chaos
and settle the vexed questions which
shall have arisen out of the war.
From the beginning, he has had moth
ing to fear from the age and imbecility of
Gen. Scott, and already have the opera
tons on the Potomac disposed of him and
Mcdowell and Patterson. Upon their
fall, arose McClellan-the Napoleon Of the
war, who, through the agency Of the
press, was rapidly rising upon the wings
of fame, when mutterings of discomfort
were heard, from the papers especially in
Stewards interest, at the inactivity OF the
army at Washington. The great efficien-
cy and ability claimed for McClellan and
the promises, in his behalf, that the in
surrection would soon be crushed, have
resulted in nothing but a disappointment
of highly wrought expectations, and this
idol, Of an hours worship, will soon be
broken by tickle populace at the insti-
CATION of willy demagogue, unless
which is anything but probable-a speedy
victory shall restore public confidence.
Fremont, more bold than discreet, put
forth his bid for the Presidency, and it
was received with such manifestations of
popular favor and admiration that the
arch Secretary Of State became alarmed
and promptly went to work to counteract
his dangerous influence, through the in
strumentality Of the Blairs. The result
will be the sudden subsistence of another
hero, and thus will it be with every Cen
eral whose prominence may endanger the
supremacy of Seward. And in thus re-
moving his rivals, he consoles himself
with the reflection that he is fastening
peace without endangering an impossible
Reconstruction of the Union. If we are
not mistaken in the man, this is his poll
cy, and while promoting the ends Of his
ambition he is really aiding the cause of
the South. ' t '' Ii.

The Bowling Green kentucky cores
pendent of the Nashville Union and Amcri-
can states the following:
An amusing incident, and one calculat-
ed TO awaken the northerners to keen
sense of the inhospitable reception with
which they meet in their invasion of Ken
lucky, occurred at Louisville few days
since. A regiment from the northern
part of Indiana was being transferred from
Jacksonville to Louisville on board the
ferryboat, when. having reached the Ken
lucky shore, the colonel of the regiment
rode up the wharf, which was alive with
young and able bodied Kentuckians. who
had assembled to witness their debarking,
and not yet enlisted in the Federal army.
The colonel, who was surprised to witness
such gathering of men capable Of bear
ing arms, remarked that it was I'D
hard for Indiana to fight the battles of
Kentucky" and asked, in an insulting
tone, "why Kentuckians were not engag-
ed in this war ?" An honest Irishman,
who was standing by and heard the re-
mark of the abolition colonel, replied tina.
"if We wait till We meet Buckner, then
ye'll see the Kentuckians" The reply,
which contained severe rebuke to the
impertinence of the interrogator and
much truth, elected not a little merri-
ment from the crowd, and impaired to
the colonel information of character the
truth of which will be verified should he
ever come in contact with General Buck
ner's forces. .IHtt ri'...r. ...

The Cotton States to be Invaded.

the object Of the epedition will be re-

war into the cotton States, which are
chiefly responsible for the rebellion, and
to produce dsorganization in the i'm
mense Confederate army in Virginia; Sec
ondly, to secure quarters for the Federal
troops and harbor within range of the
mercantile, naval and marine depots;
thirdly, to open one or more Southern
ports to commerce, and thus to satisfy all
demands and obvato all difficulties about
the supply of cotton and the efficiency of
the blockads; fourthly from nucleus in
the Confederate States near which the
long supposed loyalty good sense of the
people may find safe and appropriate
expression, and encourage and stimulate
this reaction feeling, Of which we have
seen remarkable and encouraging mani
festations in North Carolina. U. ,
