From Nashville.

Letters were received last evening
from the neighborhood OF Nashville,
written on last Saturday, which state
that nine small regiments Of infantry,
with Stokes regiment Of cavalry and one
Pennsylvania company of cavalry, are all
the force now in Nashville. The troops
now there are said to be Gen. Payne's
division. Their pickets do not extend
beyond the enyirons Of the city. Occa.
sionolly they send out foraging parties,
sustained by heavy bodies Of infantry,
which our forces generally manage TO got
hold Of
Andrew johnson is still there, and Ia
said to be drinking very hard. They are
still terrifying tho city, the Notifications
being principally fronting the Murfrees-
boro', Lebanon, franklin and Nolanvillo
pixies. Thousands Of negroes are carried
from the different counties in Middle
Tennessee to Nashville, and many Of
them are sent TO Kentucky. But taking
our negroes incenses Kentuokians, and il
is said an order has been issued that no
more negroes be allowed TO accompany
the army to Kentucky The Federals
are taking what they want, and eating
out the city, and will soon be in starving
condition. II is thought johnson is a.
waiting the result Of some decisive battle
in Kentucky. II tho Federals should be
defeated he will abandon the city, other
wise he will endeavor 10 hold t.-Chatta.

The Story of the Enemy.

The Northern papers which we have
received contain very voluminous ac-
counts of the military operations on the
upper Potomac. We publish many ex-
tracts in another column. We pass over
their long accounts Of the battle, the
swsying Of the opposing lines. They are
little besides fancy sketches-wild ro-
mances, invented 10 please people who
will not bear the truth.
We take the following extract from
the Heralds account, stating the forces of
the enemy:
General Mcclellan commanded the ma.
tional troops in person, and had on the
field the whole command OF Gen. Burn.
side, recently augmented by the addition
of several new regiments; the army corps
lately under Gen. Mcdowell! now under
command of Gen. Hooker; General Sum-
ner's corps; Gen. Franklin's corps; Gen.
Banks corps, commanded by Gen. Will
Jams; and Sykes division Of Fitz John
Porter's corps.
In the fight General Hooker was wound
ed and carried from the field and Rick
etts assumed command.
In the following the courage of our
soldiers is acknowledged. The praise is
extorted, and therefore comes mingled
with ISLANDERS and hate:
1t is beyond all wonder how men such
as the rebel troops are can fight as they
do. That the ragged and filthy wretch
es sick, hungry, and in all ways miser-
able, shculd prove such heroes in fight,
Is past explanation. Men never fought
better. There was one regiment that
stood up before the fire of two or three
Of our long range batteries and Of two reg
iments OF infantry, and though the air
around them was vocal with the whistle of
bullets and. the scream of shells, there
they stood and delivered their fire in per-
feet order; and there they continued TO
stand until battery Of six light twelves
was brought to bear on them, and before
that they broke. Nothing mortal can
stand battery of six light Napoleon guns,
if there is plenty of grape and canister in
the ammunition chests.
The Athens post. [volume] (Athens, Tenn.) 1848-1917, 1862-10-03

in such cases; and any one who undertakes
10 do il is trespasser and a violator OF
the law. Soldiers in the service. as well
as the officers, are subject 10 the Rules
and Articles OF War. and ii they commit
any offense known to the military code
therein prescribed, they are liable TO be
tried aud punished according to the law
made for their Government. IL these
Rules and Articles of War; or in other
words, if the military code for the gov.
eminent of the army is defective in any
respect, it ought to be amended by Con-
gress. There alone the power is vested.
Neither Generals nor their Provost Mar
shals have any power to make, alter or
modify laws either military or civil; nor
can they declare what shall be crimes Ell
ther military or civil, or establish any tri-
bunal to punish what they may so de
clare. All these matters belong to Con-
gress; and assure you, in my opinion,
nothing is more essential TO the mRinte-
nance and preservation Of constitutional
liberty than that the military be ever kept
subordinate to the civil authorities.
You then have my views hastily but
pointedly given. Yours most respect

r,ncoln,s Proclamation.

In another place will be found Pro-
clamation recently issued by Abraham
Lincoln, in which it is declared, that
on the first day Of january, 10 the year

and sixty three, all persons or slaves with

Herald delights to call him, has put
his pedal extrelnities in it at last. For we
hold that if Lincoln, Seward, Sumner,
Chase, Wilson, Wendell Philips, Horace
Greeley, Lloyd Garrison, and Fred Dou-
glas, together with all the rest of the ia
natics, free nlggers and fools now in exis-
tence, had gone to work deliberately and
with malice prepense, they could not
have contrived and conoocted an instru-

intensifying and strengthening the slave

Passage of the Consumption Bill by
Both Houses of Congress.

RICHMOND, September 26.-The bill pre-
sented from the Committee Of Confer
ence, on the ConScript bill, was passed in
both Houses Of Congress to-day.
1t authorizes the President to call out
and place in the military service Of the
Confederate States, for three years, all
white men between the ages of thirty-fve
and forty'iye, or such part thereof as in
his judgment may be necessary to the
public defense; provided, that if the Pres
ident shall call for those between thirty
five and any other age less than forty
five, and those called out shall be first
and Immediately ordered to fill to their
maximum number companies, etc, or
ganized prior TO the 10th of April, 1862.

A Drawn Battle,

The Washington Republican, Llncoln's
organ Of the 10th claims no victory at
Sharpsburg, II says:
"The general impression made by the
accounts as yet received is not untavora-
BILE. Our troops fought with great bray
cry, and it is certain a good many rebel
prisoners were taken. Nevertheless, the
facts, which seem TO be agreed, that the
contest was not renewed up to noon yes
terday, Thursday and that Gen Nc Clel-
Ian had granted an armistice for the bu-
rial 0ft The dead, giveto the affair some
what the aspect of drawn battle.
If such shall finally prove to have been
the fact, it is not so satisfactory q victory
but it still far from being a disaster"
The Republican then talks about the
'thickenlng accounts Of the death and
wounds of our brave soldiers" 1t does not
regard the fight as disaster" but it Is
very evident, from its guarded. language,
that Others in Washington do-and this
will be the verdict of the times.

"The NeWs.o

The war news this week is rather light
and scattering Since the late heavy Sc
ries Of engagements in Maryland, culmi.
mating in Jackson's splendid victory at
Boteler's Mill, both armies seem to be
seeking repose; or rather, the papers on
both sides the line are silent as TO the
whereabouts of either, being no doubt as
ignorant Of their movements as we are.
The latest plausible report represents
Mcclellan to be once more falling back in
the direction Of Washington; but whe-
ther true or not, or whether General Lee
is still in Maryland or has returned with
his entire army to the south side of the
Potomac, are questions which will be sat

Can for a Public Meeting

In our columns today will be found a
call for public meeting to be held at the
Courthouse, Athens, Monday rext, the
9th instant. The call is numerously sign.
ed, and the object is, as we understand it,
to bring together, harmonic and unite
those who have. from causes we need not
stop to mention, been kept asunder and
! estranged on the great question Of the

we are really all equally interested, and
which must eventuate in placing us all in

us all in a state of vassalage and degrade.

men, so called, of the town and vicinity.
and we regret 10 find but few, very few,
OF their names appended to it. Surely,
this is no time to hesitate or play off. 1t
is matter Of vital importance-the is
sue is too palpable and direct to be evaded
or avoided. We cannot sneak or creep
through the contest, intending to take
shelter, with our goods and chattels, lands
inducements, under whichever side shall
ultimately prove successful. If we were
willing TO so surrender and degrade our
manhood, it could not, ard would not, be
permitted. There is no longer any neu-
trail ground to stand upon-those who are
not for and with us must be against us,
whether they are warmed by Southern
sun, or live IN the cold and inhospitable
North.---2onelyy.n o-eHe can at this late
day, be ignorant of the design and pur-
pose of the enemy:-that it is the con-
quest OF our country, the subjugation of
the white race, and the emancipation and
equalization of the negroes. Surely, sure
ly, no rational mind can, at this hour, ill.,
dulge for Il single moment the idea of q
reconstruction Of the Union, of resto-
ration OF the Federal Government to its
former simple and harmonious character
and proportions. 1t is impossible. Read
Lincoln's proclamation, in which the fell
purpose and intent of the enemy is set
FORTH at last, in bold and unblushing
characters. We repeat, there is no lon
ger any neutral ground-no halfway
house to tarry at; and we hope those who
have been standing aloof-our neighbors,
if not our frends-who hesitate and halt,
alternately praying Good Lord" Good
Devil, !" will seriously review their position,
resume their manhood, and come up TO the
meeting on Monday, resolved hencefor-
ward to do their whole duty, and remem-
bering that there is more joy in heaven
over one sinner who repeuteth than nine
ty-nine of the righteous.
