gathers strength from achievements he
will be as certain TO advance into the in
terror, and towards Atlanta, as he Is an
enemy striving TO subjugate us. This
can, as we before intimated. only be
prevented by the organization of force
to oppose his progress, and it must come
from the militia ofthe state. Like Yir-
ginia, every man able TO bear arms that
can be armed, will have to take the field
Our people must prepare for this. They
must be ready. The Governor will have
10 enforce his orders to the Militia officers
Of the State TO organize, and be ready for
the field. We are no alarmists, and have
no desire to create excitement among the
people. But we are not blind, nor will
we shut cur eyes to the truth that Geor.
gia is in peril should Chattanooga fall
into the hands of the enemy. As sen
tinels upon the watchtower," we there
fore, with the signs before ms, "souad the
alarm"
The Hte'lgencsy fairly squeals with
rage at Ex-Governors BRowS and CAMP
BELL for their course 1t raves, foams,
groans and lies all in the same breath.
We hope the gentlemen so Kissed at by
this Georgia cotton. mouth will die Of
grief when they read the following;
NEIL 5. BROWN AND WIN. b, CAMPBELL.
This brace of shameful traitors have
filed their cup of iniquity to overflow
ing. Governor Campbell hypocriticOlly
dallied with the Executive of Tennes-
see and President Davis about a high
appointment in the Confederate Army.
His only excuse for not accepting it at
once was his bad health, but he always
wound up his declinatiOn of Office with
the assertion that he was true to the
South and was looking forward anz-
iOusly TO the day when he would be able
to draw his sword and do battle in her
1 cause. As soon, however, as Andy john
J son reached Nashville, Gov. Campbell
became his toady to do his bidding, and
at the command of this miserable despot,
enrolled himself in the ranks of the enc
mics of his race, the oppressors of his
friends, and murderers Of the people who
had honored him. Shame shame upon
such traitor.
Neil 5. Brown has done even worse.
He enjoyed the emoluments of Office as
a member of the Military Board at Nash
vile, and took the oath TO support the
!, Constitution of the Confederate States.
/ When Andy johnson reached Nashville
he had Gov. Brown arrested, or rather
ordered him to remain within his en-
closure, but to make his appearance before
him every day. Brown submitted to this
punishment like the vilest slave. And,
instead of resenting such humiliating
treatment with the spirit of a man, he is
now riding over the country in company
with Andy johnson, making traitorous
speeches to the people, and referring to
his jailor, Andy Johnson, as his distin-
guished friend !! Oh shame, where is
thy blush The former friends of these
two traitors feel deeply Inundated and
degraded at their disgraceful conduct.
In the future they cannot recognize them
as acquaintances. While they despise
Andy Johnson as the adder that stings,
1 they will have an inefabe contempt for
Governors Brown and Campbell as the
vermin that have only the power TO
annoy.
Let us tell this Atlanta fshwoman that
Gov. CAMPBELL is true to the South, and
thank Heaven we believe is ready TO
draw his sword and do battle for her
cause If the leading men Of the South
had all been half as true to her as Gov.
CAMPBELL and Gov JOHNSON are, the
world would not now be looking with
mingled pity, amazement and horror at
this foul and unnatural rebellion.
The HitelHgalG has but little faith, it
seems, in rebel gunboats. II says;
The Confederate gunboat Arkansas,
built at Memphis, had gone down to
Yicksburg. 1t is represented to be a ram,
very strong and formidable, and belie1S
ed capable Of clearing the Mississippi of
the Vandal feet, God grant that it may I
But our credulity on the subject Of the
boosted ability Of our gunboats to &C
complish wonders, has worn threadbare.
Secretary Mallory and his agents have de-
csiUel as too Q7ea, after eieUatiHg our hope
and confidence to the skies Jy his promises.
According to OFF best recollection, he has
always been just about G0o iCeeFs behind
hand in all his naval enterprises.
SO it appears that rebel Cabinet officers
get berated as well as ours. 1t says that
JoNCE HooPER, the well-known wag, who
used to edit the Montgomery Natl died
recently at Richmond, he was much
concerned several months before his
death about religious matters, and after
much discussion and thought Joined the
Catholic Church, in which he died
Light is dear in Dixie, Terebene oil,
a substitute for our cheap burning fluid,
which is made of rosin and turpentine,
is sold for one dollar and Seuaty.fre cents
gallon.
The Knoxville Register states that our
troops had eleUen killed in the ReadyVille
skirmish instead Of three, the real num-
Der And so we wind up our examina-
ton Of muddy ink and muddier ideas
and dirty looking paper. The whole ap-
pearance Of these sheets reminds us for
chilly Of dilapidated loafer on his last
legs
II is laughable to see how JEFF DAVIS
aud his faction, who have broken every
provision Of the old constitution, protest
their yeneration for instrument and their
