LIMA.


Already have the women of Virginia Seu,n
Carolina and Alabama, collected fund to balld
for the defence of their respective Staies
and the interests of the Contederacy In our
struggle for liberty, our State has been behind
hand in nothing, nor can / think she means to be,
in auy project whereby her zeal and honor can be
yindicated I call then upon our patriotic women
to co-operate in contributing sufficient sum for
runbost to be called "The Old North State
and venture TO submit for their approval plan
for obtaining the necessary fund.
Its this: to ask some more persons
in every town in the State, to accept the post Of
Collector, and to extend the subscription list to
high and Low, rich and poor, so that every woman
and child within oar borders may have the oPpor-
tunity to aid In maintaining the cause of the Con-
federaeg, and the honor of the good Old North
State.
Mrs John W Ellis will take the western por-
ton of North Carolina, and in the Middle and
Eastern portions, trust that may meet with the
same cordial response FROM those with whom
have yet to communicate, that has already been
returned by those who have consented to act as
Collectors
ANY person not within reach of a Collector and
desiring to give to this object, can do by for
warding her subscription to Gen. James &. Mar

forward towards Marfreesboro There were no

of the city, as he passed out Business continues
very dull in Nashville; many Northern shop-keep-

the former inhabitants who remain, are steadfast
in their adhesion to the Southern cause. The
notes of Southern banks aud Confederate Trea-

taken possession Of the city, the pentup fountains
of silver change has broken loose, and shnpisters
have disappeared.
A gentleman who left New York on the Goth
ult arrived in this city yesterday He reports
that nothing Of striking importance had taken
place North of Mason and Dixon's line. It was
the general opinion in New York that the rebellion
was about being crushed, aud that matters would,
ere long be restored to their former condition.
There was much activity in New York, and to a
stranger things seemed to be going just as be-

vessel called the Junata, were to be lron-cad,
and although great reticence was observed by the
officials vast efforts were undoubtedly being made
to increase the Yankee feet of iron-sheathed
steamers.
In Baltimore business was dull and the city
had suffered terribly by the war and by the par
tial destruction of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road, which had cut off communications with the
West. The vast majority Of the Baltimoreans
were intensely Southern, and they so expressed
themselves everywhere; but the city was kept III

1t was generally believed in Baltimore that there
would soon be powerful attack on Norfolk; that
McClellans army, which had crossed over into
Virginia. would speedily advance, and that Burn
side would endeavor to force his way into North
Carolina, and, if possible form junction with Nc

pRRsIDENr,s MESSAGE.

The following Message from the President in
regard TO raising a sufficient lumber of men for
the army was communicated to Congress:
TO the Senate and House Of Representatives. OF
the Onfederdte States:
The operation of the various laws now in force
for raising armies has exhibited the necessity for
reform. The frequent changes and amendments
which have been made have rendered the system
so complicated as to make it often quite difhcult
to determine what the law really Is, and to what
extent prior enactments modified by more
recent legislation.
/ There is also embarrassment from conflict be-
tween State and Confederate Legislation. l am
happy to assure you of the entire harmony of pur-
pose aud cordiality Of feeling which have con-
tinued to exist between myself and the Execu-
tives of the several States and it is to this cause
that our success in keeping adequate forces in the
field is to be attributed. ia (.
These reasons would suffice for inviting your
earnest attention to the necessity of some simple
and general system for exercising the power of
raising armies which is vested in the Congress by
the Constitution. But there is another and more
important consideration. The vast preparations
made by the enemy for com bined assault at
numerous points on our frontier and sea coast have
produced a result that might have been expected.
They have animated the people with spirit of
resistance general resolute and so selfsacrl-
ncln, tnat IL requires rather 70 De fegulatcu IMAM
to be stimulated The right of the State to de-
mand, and the duty of each citizen to render,
military service, need only to be stated to be adj
mttcd. 1t is not, however, wise or judcious
policy to place in active service that portion: of
the force OF people which experience has shown
to be necessary reserve. Youths under the
age OF eighteen years require further instruction
-nen OF mature experience needed for main
tanning order aud good government at home, and
IN supervising preparations for rendering efficient
the armies in the field. These two classes con-
stitute the proper reserve for home defence ready
to be called out in case of emergency and to be
kept in the field only when the emergency exists
But In order ~ maintain this reserve intact it is
necessary, in great war like that in which we
are now engaged, all persons of intermediate age
not legally exempt for good cause, should pay
their debt Of military service to the country; that
the burdens should not fail ex cluSiveIy on the
most ardent aud patriotic. .:.- = =a,-~s'8.
l, therefore, recommend the passage Of law
declaring that all persons residing within the Con
federatc States, between the ages of eighteen and
thirty five years, and ighttuy subject to military
duty, shall be held to be in the military service of
the Confederate State, and that some plain aud
simple method be adopted for their prompt enrol
ment and organization, repealin. ali the legislation
heretofore enacted which would conflict with the
system proposed. JEFFERSON DAVIS.

BURNING CorToN, &c.-We are glad to sec this
good work going aud at rapid rate. An Of
fccr Of the Confederate army, who is engaged in
this most important duty, tells US he burned not
less than 1903 bales for fcO persons dtone Messrs
VIM. Crimes and Mr. T. Atkinson He has al
ready burned almost all the cotton at or near the
water courses. in Washington, Pitt, Martin and

He assures us he was aided in this patriotic
work, cheerfully by the owners themselves, except
iu only. But a set off to this case, in
another, the owner had his burned, though the
boat was ut the lauding to take it off. Not only
the cotton has been burned, but large quantities
Of naval stores. The Buccaneers Of the North
got absolutely nothing in occupying Washington.
This is the true way to defend ourselves. If the
buccaneers get nothing, they will soon cease their
narauding invasions OF country. But the
work must be done effectually, for the smallest
gains are sufficient to stimulate such ardent
thieves.
Since the above put in type We have learn
ed that the owner who had his burned, though
the boat was at the wharf to take it off, was Pull

One OF the most degrading scenes that ever dis

State officials repaired TO the Des Mones House,
where, i'll short time, the rafting OF decanters,
the tinSlng of glasses, the gurgng of liquors, and
the bacchauallan shouts of revciry told but too
plainly that the "upper crust were going in
their honors. Gov. kirkwood "spread himself
i'll fine style before he guzzled down his fifteenth
glass, and was followed by his pet, Baker, who
managed to make fool OF himself, but the MEM
