We onsder ourselves 10 duty bound, good citi-
zen of the Confederate States and true friend to the
soldier, to expose the SYSTEM which vas pracsed last
year in ref renee to this business We believe great
oea of the sickness that has been in the army this
was caused by the socaIed bacon and beet that was
put up last winter. Many soldier is in his grave
owing to the food that furnished him. We speak
knowingly on this subj ct. and will be able to prove
everything shall say. We intend to give this sub
ject thorough oyerbaung, and il tie same thing IS
repeated this year, the fault shall not be ours
The President and Secretary Of War ought to know,
and it is the business of the public journals to state
these facts, and to show what ou'rages committed
in the purchase of SC called beef CATTLE and the
in which hogs slaughtered and pretended to be
made bacon Of. We call upon all good citizens who
have and relatives in tie army, who expect to
be there themselves, to give their testimony against
these things in order that similar outrages may MT be
committed again this fall We speak particularly Of
what happened in Middle Tennessee what happened
in other places Others can, ard we hope will state.

TO Alexander McAndrew, President. and Robert
Cochran, Secretary of the Paisley Parliamentary
Reform Association
Gentemen-I have had the pleasure of receiving the
liberal and courteous address of the Paisley Paramen-
tary Reform Association and have submitted it to the
President of the United States aud the heads OF the
Departments of this Government.
Engaged in maintaining against an unprovoked and
causeess sedtion Government whose principle is the
political equality of the members of the State, and
whose policy is peace and good will towards all States
and all meD 1t has been disappointment TO learn that
our struggle IS at best matter of indifference to the
Governments Of Europe tChe 1t as generally represent
ed touS that the nations Of that continent SymPdfhaSe
not aclh u.s. but tn1h the insurgents and desire nothing
less than National rum. If these representations
are true, it is and melancholy illustration of the
disposition of mankind to seek to do harm to each other
at the cost OF common sacrifices and suf1erings.
For your better appreciation of the character OF this
contest and for your most generous wishes for the safe
IT, welfare, and happiness of our country you will please
TO accept the thanks of the people of the American
Continent. speak in the of the Continent, be-
cause know that the Of the United States Is ac
cepted by ell the American nations one involving
ultimately their safety and their destiny.
Tie North does not, however, stand alone In uphold
ing tie bene6cent Government. The West is equally
loyal and equally devoted to institutions, and equally
energetic in defending them. Nor is the South, you
seem to mmaglne, altogether lnsensibe or unalthiu
Tme which always subdues passions otherwise uncon-
trolabe is gradually freeing that region from the ter
rors OF the nsurrecton and preparing the way for its
return to its constitutional duties and for the restora
tion of national unity and peace.
1t is occasion of sincere regret for the people o
this country that nations for whom have cherished
only sentiments of friendship and affection, disturb
ed n their Industrial occupations in consequence of this
unhappy civil strife. We find in this circumstance
new and distinct motive to bring the to safe and
speedy conclusion. Nations in modern times are moi
absolutely independent Of each other. On the contra
ry they constitute general society If oil Europt
could not only think but speak you do there aOod
Europe would have our sufrages and influence for
peace and harmony everywhere. | have the honor tc

The discovery OF Gen. Beauregard's WHEREABOUTS
which has long puzzled the military editors of Yam
keed0OdeIOm 10 have awakened their appreben-
sious. The New Yolk Times, in an article on our
Generals, says
The appointment just announced in the Richmond
papers oil conspicuous officer Gen Beauregard
to the command of the Department Of South Carolina
and Georgia. indicates, we may remark the presen ce in
that department no ncOnsderable force, and may
either prognOsticate serious attempt to eject from
cur positions at Hilton Head and Beaufort or show
that the rebels anticipate vigorous effort at the reduc
tiOn of Charleston and Savannah 1t sets at rest all
the foolish stories which have been current of Gen.
Beauregards withdrawal from the Southern service
The truth in regard to him we believe to be that he
has smply been at the Springs in Alabama recruiting
his strength impaired by that memorable Western cam
paign in which Gen. Haeck did not capture him, nor
destroy his army.
