We have heretofore referred to the mania Tor
eD2culstipg which seems to have seized upon
large BODY of the business men Of the Confederate
States and have endeaTored TO show that While such
a policy must result in great inconvenience to the
people. It must seriously embarraas our cause. An
evidence Of his was stated by our contemporary,
lie Patriot, the other day. That paper said - We
learn that it is injurng the character Of Nashville
abroad: making her enemies among former irlends'
$50 bitter is this hostility in some quarters, gen
"tIeman from the country informs US he has heard
.men declare thst they would not raise niger to
defend Nashville if the enemy were here pointing
'his cannons AZ our doors" We have heard OF
similar declarations, and further, we have heard
men say that they would not volunteer to defend
while their families ware left prey to the sharks
who were fattening upon the necessities Of the
people. An instance was related to US Of gentle
man who returned to his family in this city. few
days since, on furlOugh from our army in Western
Virginia, to fad his wife ard one Of Ave children
scS. without money and destitute Of provision and
feel lie had but little money himself and but for
the kindness of & neighbOr, his family would have
suffered even worse than they did. That husband
Ral father has three times responded to the call Of
bis coantry-in tie Florida war, in the Mexican
war. and now in cur war for independence. His
wife ia unable, when in health, to earn enough,
added to bis pay as q soldier to support their
family at the prices which are now demanded for
the necessities Of life. What iuducement has that
mLn to volunteer again, when his present term ex-
pres? And how many sre in his condition?
It is facts similar TO thsse that have arrested the
a.snion Of the State authorities in North Carolina,
louisiana, and Alabama. The Governor of TIE
laaer State issued proclamation on the ID inst, in
Which he says:

the Northern States have lent Mr.. Chase $50 000,
600 Of money, and that he will require more till
Christmas Till that time therefore. il is inferred
the Treasury at Washington will be full The real
facts are very different. The banks have contracted

they choose to exercise it, Of lending Ell 225 0C0

they will lend the money or not on the let Of
-Oc, Jter and 1ss Of December. TWo-thirds, there
fore, Of tle proposed losn remain ''to be placed"
The banks may either lend the money not IS
they please, when the specified time arrives. And
with respect even to the ins!allmens now taken by
the banks there is unpleasant clause that cover
due Treasury notes" and 60 days Treasury notes
may be taken il payment instead Of cash. As 1he
Government has already been borrowing as largely
as it could in the monsy~market, this option will be
extensively exercised. On the whole, Mr.. Chase
will, as we explained last week, get some money,
but it will be doed out to him very cautiously ard

there was an encampment of the enemy at Laurel

The great conservative Black Republican editor
OF the Spectator has been very muchrexercised of
late about the course of the Douglas supporters.
10 his last issue he publishes Judge Douglas letter
to the memphis Appeal, and takes occasion, in
commenting upon it, to repeat few phrases used
by Douglas man, on the night before the election,
evidently thinking that that gentleman wrote the
article signed Augusta" never made, or ex-
pfct to make speech. He need not quote again.
What right has he to criticise the Of privae
individuals What RICH. has man who has the
first ODD Of condemnation yet to utter against
Northern State man, for their oft-repeated yio-
lations OF the Constitution. and vet whose paper
has abounded in abuse aud villification Of South
ern men and States for months past to crlticise
the course Of any man, because that prefers
an utilization with his section to that Of the
Black Republicans of the North, and their friends
and would be defenders in Virginia.
The editor evidently expected the supporters OF
Judge Douglas to fall into their ranks, and there
by give them :lic control of the State This fail
ure on our part to give the State into the hands
of our political enemies, is what has caused the
Spectator man much pain and modification.
This self-sa ne editor, who now admres Judge
Douglas SO much, and whose love for this glorious
Union is great, is the same who, when the news
OF the dissolution OF the Democratic Convention
was recei we'd, in common with his political friends,
was so much rejoiced-although they knew it was
the death knell OF the Union, shouted long and
loud their rejoicings at the prospect of State
vcto Y; for they well knew it could result in Moth
ing more. And this is the who private citi-
zcns dare not differ with, unless their actions are
to be criticised in the columns of his paper.
He insnuates that the Douglas supporters are
acting with and aiding the Breckenridge men to
dissolve the Union. defantly hurl back the vile
SANDER in bis teeth.
file tells lis that his paper, in connection with
four five others, deserve nnch credit. Before
you class yourself with the Richmond Wing, take
Highways bold and manly stand, and say that
the North must recede, OF the South will seceuc.-
That is my position. | say the North must recede
and give us our guaranteed rights. Ii they don't,
hope ano pray that the State Convention will
give the people opportunity to dissolve the con-
necion which binds us with the remaining States
AS the editor of the Spectator does not to
be posted, call his attention to the fact that the
majority of the Northern people have repudiatea
Judge Douglas plan for settlement OF the sa-
gress; aud Judge Douglas himself has signihed his
Willingness to abandon it.

issue; but as it is made it settled land for all
time to come. AUGUSTA.
