From the \. Y. Evening Postl
There will be a shade of disappointment felt
by those who had hoped that the return ofCas'
sius NJ . Clay would and to our army a live
fuhting general, when they learn that, instead
of enterini the military service, he is about to
resume his position as minister to the court of
St. Petersburg. Probably Mr.. Clay, whose
opinions on the subject of emancipation are SO
well known, is convinced that the recent decis-
ion of President Lincoln and the present policy
of the government would debar him from carry
ing out his own views, and would render his
military system as obnoxious to the government
as was that of Fremont lie is personally pop
ular with the Gar Alexander, and at tho court
of Russia can, under present circumstances, do
better service to his country than in the field.
Mr. Clay will return TO Russia about the 1st of
October.

A Timely Order OH Surprises and Sur

MACON CITY, Aug, 22-The following is an
extract from general order issued by Gen Nor
rell, governing the movements ofthe troops in this
division: amy official in this division who per
mits his command to be surprised, or who, while
he has around of ammunition left, surrenders his
command to the enemy will be tried for neglect
of duty and cowardice, and will if found guilty,
be shot in accordance with the articles of war
surprise is never excusable, and there can be no
palliation for an offence so grave as the neglect
of duty which alone make it possible. a sur
render can only be excused when there are no
longer any defenders, or means of defence, or
when there is no possible chance or hope of cut
ting through the enemy, and then the true solder
will strike one blow for honor however hopeless

place according to appointment, during the second
week of September, at Bryan Hall in this city
But the Society have determined to devote the
proceeds that may arise to that cause which is alb
sorbing all our thoughts and claims all our ener-

Whatever avais may accrue will be appropria
ted to relieve the wants of those brave men of our
armies whom the casualties of the battle field, or
the exposures of camp life may compel to beds of
suffering.
Fruits. in their various preserved or green forms,
are among the most needed and most grateful arti-
Giles that can be sent to the sick bed of a soldier.
We therefore call upon friends everywhere
to send forward at that tine, in addition to artie
cles competing for premiums quantities of dried.
canned and preserved trut aud jees, as well as
wines, cordials. 81, of good age Good keeping
winter fruits will also be greatly needed. Our
hospitals have never yet been supplied with half

be duly acknowledged and accounted for, and the
donor name and contribution announced in the
