The gust.
Athens, Friday, April II. 1862.
Skidaway Island.


The Savannah Republican of Thurs
day says: ave learn that the enemy,
finding appearances on Skidaway stale,
flat and unprofitable,' left the Island in
disgust, and yesterday not thief OF
them could be seen. We also hear that
Gen. Mercer sent over q detachment
Tuesday night, who brought away the
flag they had erected over the battery.
The Republican of the day before says:
"Between one and two o'clock yesterday
three of the enemy's boats quit their an
chorage and proceeded up Warsaw River.
When at convenient distance they COM
menced Smelling our deserted batteries
on the North end of Skidaway, and ex-
pended no small amount of amuni-
ton in the commandment. Finding
all silent, they came up to the shore and
landed force of several hundred men.
Their first achievement, after landing,
was to raise the Federal flag over the
pine logs that for more than week past
have occupied, under cover, the places of
our heavy guns.
d. ave have only to add, generally, that
our troops are wide awake, and will, in
due time, give the thieving rascals all
proper attention" %.

Another Exploit of Capt. Morgan.

Editors APpeol: The heroic young Kentuckian
is as full of stratagem as he is of daring. lie
disguised himself as countryman and took n
wagon load of meal to Nashville the other day.
Driving straight to the st. Cloud Hotel he left his
wagon at the door in charge of n trusty follower,
and went into the dining room Of the hotel about
dinner, where he sat down opposite to Gen.
McCook.
General McCook, suppose" said the disguis-
ed partisan, bowling across the table.
"You are right, sir" said McCook, "that is my
name.'
"Well, Ginernl, if there's no seccshers about
I've got something to tell you right here"
Looking around, the General requested his new
acquaintance to proceed with what he had to say
"Well, Gineral, live up here close by Burkc's
mills, right in the midst of n nest of red hot Sc
ceshers, and they swear your soldiers shan't have
a peck of meal if they have to starve for it. But
.Gineral, I'm all right on the goose, though don't
have much to say about it about home, and sOfl
got wagon load of meal ground, and I've brung
it down here to-day, and it's out thar in the street.
and you can have it if You want it,"
Gen. McCook was highly delightcd--exprcssed
his gratitude to the plain looking countryman for
his kindness praised his loyalty to "the old flag"
etc. etc., and at once ordered the meal to he taken
to the commissary of his brigade and paid for in
gold and silver This transaction accomplished,
the counterfeit wagner again repaired to Gen
McCook's headquarters, where, after requesting II
strictly private interview, he told the "Gineral't
that If be would send out one hundred and fifty
men, to such place. in such neighborhood in
Davidson county, he would guide them right into
that 'nest Of seceshers and traitors" where they
might "bag" large quantity of meal and other
"contraband of war;" besides a number of the
worst rebels that ever assisted in 'busin up this
GLORIOUS Union" Gen. McCook fell into the
snare "as easy ms falling off log" and all the
preliminary arrangements were made, and time
and place agreed upon for the one hundred and
fifty Federal soldiers to meet their trusty guide.
McCooks detachment of $50 men kept the ap-
pointment faithfully, and of course Capt. Morgan,
no longer disguised, was there to meet them but
unfortunately for them. he was not alone--he had
sufficient number of well armed horsemen TO
capture the whole Yankee force without firing q
gun. So he took them quietly, and sent them
swiftly "to the rear to he exchanged Sin duo
course'-all but one. an officer, whom he released
on parole, and babe him return to Gen. McCook
with the compliments of his meal selling ae-
quaintance, who had the pleasure of meeting him
at the st. Cloud few days before.
Hurrah for the gallant and heroic Morgan-thc
dauntless and sagacious partisan whose fame is
rapidly rounding into proportions which promise
to overshadow all the "Marions" Of the war.

The White House Festivities.

Not few of the Northern papers crit
icise severely the expensive balls and fes-
tivities which the Lincoln family have
inaugurated at the White House in the
midst of the distress and poverty of their
people. They aptly compare it to Nero
fddling while Rome was burning, We
do not expect them to distress themselves
on account of their brutal and bloody
invasion of the Southern Coniederacy;
but, whilst their own nation is bleeding
financially at every pore, and its soldiers
perishing by multitudes, some semblance
of sobriety OF department might be look
ed for from any tenants of the White
House, except family of monkeys
Socially and politically, it is no small
blessing to be delivered from the domin-
ion of such dynasty.

Despotism in Nashville,

The publication of the Nashville Times
has been suppressed. On the 18th inst,
the date of its last appearance, the ed.
itors addressed the public as follows:
On yesterday, Governor johnson, who
had requested an interview with the pub
fishers of the city papers, stated to the
representatives of the Times and the Pa
triot the terms and conditions upon which
the publication of the papers is this city
would be permitted. These terms and
conditions are such that it will be impos-
sible to comply with them and make an
independent journal, such as the Times
was intended to be, and we, therefore,
submit to the military necessity "
which terminates its existence with this
issue.
The Times was established in connec-
ton with one of the publishers of the
Union and american, in order to furnish
employment and a means off subsistence
to the former employees on that paper.
1t had no other connection with the
Union and american; it sought only the
path of independent journalism. and for
this it has fallen under the ban of the
Military Governor--who seems not to CO.
inside with Thomas Jefferson, that Ger
ror ceases to be dangerous when truth is
left free TO combat it "-and "down it
goes" until such time, if ever, as we can
print free, independent journal.
1t is THUS (says the Atlanta Mtellgencer)
that the traitor johnson begins his dirty
work in Nashville. Let the thing 90 on
There is a day of retrbution in store for
him, which, God grant, may prove an
early one!

The Battle of Newbern-Killed and
Wounded.

The editor Of the Raleigh IN. C.) Jour
nal has been on visit to Newbern, and
gives the following as the result of the
late battle:
The whole Losses in the hands Of the
enemy are--killed, As; wounded, So; pris-
oners, 202; total, 800.
These, with two or three dead, brought
away by their comrades, constitute our
entire loss.
The loss of the enemy is uncertain
Our flag of truce party learned from
Yankee officers on Monday last that
their loss in killed and wounded was
from seventeen hundred to two thousand.
This may be somewhat eXtravagant, but
the loss was undoubtedly heavy
Up to latest accounts no movements
had been made by the enemy. The en-
emy's pickets were out to the distance of
from six to ter miles from Kinston,
where our forces are.
The damage to the town of Newborn
was slight. The Yankees were plumber
ing in all directions, and were little more
than drunken mob. They were pit
laying all round the neighborhood--
stealing negroes. robbing hen-roosts, dri-
wing off stock, etc.
Considerable reinforcements had ar.
rived at our headquarters, and were con-
tinuing to arrive. We deem it impolitic
to record the movements of our troops
or to mention our defenses.
Gen. Catlin had been superseded by
Gen. Anderson, and Gen. Anderson had
joined Gen. Branch in the command of
the brigades. Gen. French has been Or
dered to Wilmington for duty. The
most vigorous movements, internally and
externally, characterize our army in the
Newbern district.
Cotton and naval stores were being de-
stroyed in large quantities on the line of
the enemy's supposed advance. The en-
envy had made no advance from New
harm

Bogus Military Characters.

We see by our Richmond exchanges
that since the declaration of martial law
there, a number of bogus military char
acters who, since the beginning of the
war, had been curvetting on fiery steeds,
dressed cap a pie in gray uniforms and
hussar caps, have been arrested and i'm
prisoned. Abiding to the matter, the
Examiner says:
Besides the fraud they are practicing
on the public, these popinjay civilians
are doing mischief by increasing the diff
ficulties of detecting deserters from the
army. Henceforth every man in uni
form will be treated as soldier, and will
be required to show his papers. 1t is
well.

Late from Nashville.

"Reliable," down on the State train,
yesterday says that the reported deser-
ton OF two of the enemy's regiments is
untrue, several privates from an Indiana
regiment, have recently made their es-
cape through the Federal lines, and join
ed our ranks. They represent the disaf-
lection as great among the troops, both
ON account of the tyranny of the superb
or officers, and the manner in which they
have been received by the people. They
were led to believe that thousands of
Unionists in Tennessee would welcome
them as deliverers. But. as it is, the uni
versal sentiments of the men is against
the invaders, and even the women and
children treat them with the most utter
contempt; while .he slaves listen to their
offers Of freedom in suspicious silence,
not wishing 20 he taken from their mas
ters.-ARmia Commonwealth.

A Paraphrase.

Oh ile, Mister Yancey,
You drew on your fancy,
When to Russell you talked of the war;
Though Earl Johnnie, when ,fuH,
May be stupid and dull,
You could not mislead him that far.
You said 'tway the Tariff,
"And slavery was far off
From producing the "noiso and confusion;"
You knep twas "the Niger"
That made us pull trigger,
And exchange an occasional confusion.
In eighteon-fifty-s
With but slight leaven
Of the villainous sin of protection;
All the East and the South,
With one will and one mouth,
Forced bill on the Middle-section.
Yes! the South and the East,
"The Beauty and Beast
OF the famous old Yankee nation,
Then united together.
For cotton and leather,
And restored their ancient relation.
V.
1t is far too late now,
In the midst of the row,
To be bothcring about the beginning;
We arc in for the fight,
To win if we are right,
And deeply repent, if we're SHINING. /

Right Smartly Scared!

The following letter from Gen, Wool
commanding at Fortress Monroe, written
the day after the brilliant exploit of the
iron clad steamer Virginia, makes an &C.
acknowledgement which is Significantly in,
teresting at this time:
FORTRESS MONROE, March 0.
To John A. Griswold, Troy n. Y.-The
Monitor is noble boat. She saved the
Minnesota, which was aground, also the
st. Lawrence, aground. Her arrival was
indeed fortunate to myself. 1t saved all
the property inside and outside the Fort.
1t was greatly to be regretted that she
did not arrive twelve hours sooner
which would have saved the Cumberland
and Congress. She is much superior to
the Merrimac. The latter had eight
guns, and the Monitor only two.
