MILITARY DIsrATcH.-We are impellec as an act of justice to Major George w Clarke, Quartermaster of McCulloch's brig ade, to bear testimony to the business-lik, manner and dispatch with which Maiel Clarke fitted out and put in the field 'he <. confederate troops that have rese-'iy leit Fort Smith for the frontier. 1 TWO weeks he equipped two regiment ana ' seyetai .a m dependent companies t1rovlsionea them; purchased and furn; -eu transportation and sl. sent them m off tSa taa only small amount t of oarieas oassa H1otes he effected this end. Until
 t:sal cnls.'ssal the confederate money was en- .,. nie yunknown in this community-he gave !t credit, that but very few, if any could have done. and expended all he had. He then purchased wagons, horses, mules and forage to the amount of thousands of dol lars, on credit, and by his energy and perseverance put an army in the field, with comparatively no money.
 These facts also show. to what extent the people of Western Arkansas, con6de in the confederate government. Its credit is established and entire confidence is felt in 1t by the people.-Ean Bwen Press.

 A BRILLIANT AcHIEvEMENT.-As special dispatch from Washington to the Balti- more Exchange. says:
 ''The St. Nicholas, on her last trip from Baltimore, took on board as passenger a French lady of dark complexion, of rather masculine features, but of quiet manners. There were also number of passengers who were proceeding to different points on the Potomac. At Point Lookout two more passengers were also taken on board. Soon after this, in the middle of the night, the French woman having retired for few mo- ments to her state-room, suddenly emerged, her wig and petticoats doffed, in full mili- tary costume, with revolvers and cutlas by her side. Twenty-Five passengers drew re- volvers at the same time, and in trice officers and crew were made prisoners. The boat was put in charge of the Point Look out passengers, who proved to be retired navy officers. The steamer was then run into Cone river, on the Virginia side, where the passengers, who were treated with great civility, were all landed, and company of 100 Tennesseeans, who were in readiness, were taken aboard. The St. Nicholas then headed up the river in search of the Paw nee, it being part of the programme of this gallant young colonel, fer such he is, to run into the Pawnee, take her by surprise, leap on board and take possession of her. Not being able to find the Pawnee, the St. Nicho. las turned round and steamed for the bay. Between Smiths Point and the Rappahan. mock the steamer fell in at different times with three vessels, one loaded with coffee, one with coal and one with ice. These wer, all captured and taken to Fredericksburg where the heroes of this achievement were received with military honors."

BY RANSOM GuLLEY, OF NC. Let us go to the war-the fight has begun, The brlstling bayonets now gleam in the sun, The smoke of the contest to Heaven is Ioomino And loudly the laundering cannon is booming; The sabres are flashing proud and so bright, Like million of stars in the crown of old night The notes of the rife are fllingthe air, As the outbursts of anguish from heart of des pair
 Let us go to the war,
 Let us go to the war-hark hear the commotion It swelleth as sadly as walls from the ocean, When loved ones untimey are struggling and dying, And the dark raging pillows are mournfully signing To the fierce heated conflict our country is calling, Let's go to the rescue-our brethren are falling Before the vile hordes of the merciess foe Oh. Southrons, let's gird on the armor and go,

 hoary, Your children will bless you and tell the sweet

Prostration of business in the North


 The Atlanta Confederacy has been per mitted to publish private letter from merchant in one of the northern cities, dat ed July 9th, from which we take the fol lowing extract:
 Rents of stores and private dwellings have gone down from one-fourth to one-hali. The smaller kind of stores and houses have not gone down in the same proportion as the larger ones We still keep our store open, as formerly, and will for several months, perhaps, but cannot speak with any certainty as to the future. So far as selling goods and paying and receiving mon- ey is concerned, may say, with truth that everything here is at dead lock. Noth- ing doing, little or no money coming in, no goods selling Of course no money comes from the South, and very little from the North. The mercantile community are pretty effectually used up. A manufactu Ter told me the other day, that fifteen six teenths of his customers had failed to pay their notes as they matured. The crisis here has never had anything like its equal before, and the future gives no hope; there fore, things will get worse in few months.
 Notwithstanding the boasted wealth of this side of the Potomac, the heavy expen- ses of the war is already beginning to alarm them, and they begin to set their wits to work to hit upon some plan to raise money How they are going to raise 1t, IS a mystery I cannot solve. Not long since they want ed only nine millions, and the best bids for the bonds were S5 cents on the dollar for six per cent. loan. Within year they will have to borrow two hundred mill ions more. This will test the boasted wealth of the North. A great many per sons here are still rich, but many ot them will not care to invest it in Mir. A. Lln- coln's bonds. Well, as for the finances, l shall not say much, but l will tell you il will be hard work. They get no revenue from importations. This last June they only got S450, ,000, whereas, in June 1860, the revenue from importations was 7, 750,- O0O-quite difference.
 One thing is certain, the soldiers will no' fight this side without pay. Most of tho three months volunteers will be back soon and will not re-enlist, as tho most of them say that they have seen the elephant. The war fever has commenced somewhat tc re act. We can now express our senti ments pretty freely against the government and good many are doing it. The New York News, the Day Book, and q number

be able to give you this, because ot tn
 need of large and increased expenditures II
 the support of our army. Elevated am
 purified by the sacred cause, they maintain
 our fellow citizens of every condition O
 life, exhibit the most self-sacriticing de
 votion They manifest a laudable pride il
 upholding their independence, unaided by any resources, other than their own. The
 immense wealth which the fertilized anu genial climate and soil have accumulated in this Coniederacy, could not be more strongly displayed than in the large revenues which with eagerness agriculturalists have contributed to the call of their country. In the single article of cotton, the subscription to the loan proposed by the government can not fall short of fifty millions of dollars, and will probably exceed that sum. Scarce ly an article required for the consumption of the army is provided otherwise than by subscription of produce to the loan so hap oily devised by your wisdom.
 The secretary of the treasury has re- port to be submitted to you, which will give you the amplest details connected with that branch of the public service. But it is not alone by their prompt pecuniary con- tributions, that the noble race of freemen who inhabit these States, evince how worthy they are of the liberties which they so we'll know how to defend. In numbers far exceeding those authorized by your laws, they have pressed the tender of their services against the enemy. Their attitude of calm, sublime devotion to their country, and the cool confident courage with which they are already preparing to meet the in- vasion, whatever proportions 1t may as- sume, give the assurance that their sacri- fees and their services will be renewed from year to year, with unfailing purpose, until they have made good to the uttermost their rights to selfgovernment. The al most unequivocal confidence which they display in their government during the pending struggle, all combine to present a spectacle such as the world has rarely, if ever seen. To speak of subjugating such people, so united and determined, is to speak in language incomprehensible to them. To resist an attack on their rights | or their liberties is with them an instinct. | this war shall last one or fifty l years, is problem they leave to be solved by the enemy alone. It will last till the enemy shall have withdrawn from their borders-till their political rights, their al tars and homes are freed from invasion- hen and then only will they rest from -his struggle to enjoy that peace-the blessings of which with the favor of Pro- 7idence they have secured by the aid of heir own strong hearts and sturdy arms.

 Look at the prospect of the farmers, so long as the war continues and the ports are blockaded and all trade stopped. With the prospect of harvest more bountiful than was ever known before, there Is no market and can be none until this war ceases, and each day lessens the ability of home consu- mcrs to buy at all. In this market pota- toes cannot be given away at cents per bushel; corn of the new crop will go down to 10 cents, if 1t can be sold at all; oats will be worth nothing; hay will be drug, and wheat will not, in all probability, com mand over thirty to thirt-yfve cents. So of every thing else. How do the farmers like the prospect? Will the war pay them for this sacrifice of the fruits of their labor for the poverty which it is sure to bring upon them and their children? Will it pay that double and triple taxes to the State, made necessary by the millions of money already loaned to get ready for the war and the direct taxes now for the first time in nearly fifty years about to be levied by the national government? If this IS to be the effect upon the farming interest, what will it be upon the manufacturing, mercan- tile, mechanical, trading, and real estate in terests all over, the country? Is it not time for the people to rise up and take this bus mess out of the hands of the politicians and the knaves who are managing it, and then go to work and make peace? Do they want to wait until they are aU ruined be- fore they do it?-l&. Louis Republican.
