TIE PROGRESS OF THE ENEMY.
| Though not at all disposed to be censorious and
willing at all times to yield to military command
ers our fullest confidence yet there are some thhgs
in the conduct Of our military affairs, which, to ont
siders, ut least. seem somewhat inconprehenslOie
Among other things, We may mention the surrender
by ma and the uninterrupted and continued possession
by the enemy of the Memphis and Charleston hai-
road We canno. resist asking Ourselves the quest
ion from day to day, shall the enemy, unmoiested
continue hold possession Of and operate TINS great
thoroughfare They have already, If not quite, sue
ceeded in putting il in running order and this, too
when they might have been easily prevented by our
troops. who have been quietly lying back IN the
woods, waiting an attack OF the enemy--an attack
which il is reasonable 10 suppose the enemy VIII
never make. .
We can readily understand the policy IS well AS
the necessity of evscusting river cities and for
tificatons. The glnbO2ts OF the enemy have forced
this necessity upon US but there ave no gunboas on
the railroads and does to us that respecta-
bic force of cavalry and artillery might al any time
be made efficient in dispensing the squads OF the
enemy engaged in repairing and guarding the Mem
phis and Charleston road We cannot see why this
road should not be rendered and KEEP. useless III the
hands Of the enemy, and We yet hope that they VIII
| never be permitted TO operate il with mpunity. II

they will be enabled 10 transport troops, provisions
aud supplies from one section Of the country to an
other with expedition that will battle all the skill
and efforts Of commanders The matter IL one,
in estimation, which should at once claim the at
tention Of those in authority.

u THE CONSUMPTION LAW.
We give elsewhere President Dayiss letter devel
oping the policy OF the Administration on ConscTp-
ton. The document is reply TO letter from Gov.
Brown, OF Georgia, who hat written IN opposition
to the law and as the petitions taken by the latter
arc correctly stated by the President, we deem 1t
unnecessary to copy the lengthy letter Of Gov. b.
The atlanta C0ajtierocy thinks the Governor
hs. taken very unfortunate position with regard
20 the ConsCrp'on act and one that VIII bring the
State and Confederate lies into collision. "ihe
Presdcnt," that journal says, " seems to have all
the weight of argument on his eide, ard adds:
we believe Conscrpton or draft 10 be right-tbe
only equitable method Of rsiriDg an army, and tina;
no other shond be resOrted to; and We have advo-
Gated this in oar columns. The Constitution grants
60 the Confederate Government the right 10 raise
armies but don't pretcriGe the mode; and we can't
see why Conscrpilon can be IN cOntravention OF the
Constitution when all must admit that II III certainly

methods.
