government. The rights Of property, the
freedom of speech, the liberty of the press.
are all ignored-in short, the government OF
!" the faithful is huge military despotism.
If the Northwestern States persist in adher-
ing to it, we shall have to say of them, in
the language of holy writ, "they are Joined
to their idols-let them alone
As to the Emancipation Proclamation it
self, it is not worth the paper upon which il
is written. 1t cannot take effect in States or
districts not overrun by the Yankees, and in
those so overrun it was not necessary, as IN
those the slaves have been set free from the
beginning. 1t will have the effect in the
South to stir up the lukewarm to increased
exertions in behalf of our cause--it will slim
ulate large shareholders to give more liberal
ly of their means to prosecute the war and
maintain the institution, and it will infuse
into every Southern heart new determine
ton to be free from the abhorred abolition
government, and nerve every Southern arm
to strike home toSthe hearts of those who,
while they would free our slaves, would en-
slave us.

Rsy~ Mr.. C. A. Allen, Mail Agent on the
Miss. Central Railroad, has our thanks for
a Memphis Daily Bulletin of the 9th ultimo.
1t is full of Northern intelligence manufac-
tured to suit the meridian in which it is pub
lished. We notice that its editor-old Benz.
D. Nabers, once of this State,-has not the
manliness to condemn Lincoln $ Emancipa-
ton Proclamation. The Bulletin should be
called The John Donkey. 1t is as dull and
spiritless as thtt quadruped, without any of
his good qualities.

Llncoln,s Emancipation Proclamation.

Abraham Lincoln, - President of the Unit
ed States of America" has at length sue
eumbed completely to the outside pressure
from purtanical New England and the fanat-
zeal abolition spirit of the North, and issued
a proclamation declaring tiie slaves in all the
States, or parts of States. engaged in the
rebellion against tue United States" free,
from and after the first OF JSauary 1868.
Thus, all disguise is thrown off-the pre-
tence that the wal waged against the South
crn States is for the maintenance of the Con-
stituton and the restoration of the Union, is
no longer INDUCED in, but Abraham has at
last 'put his foot down FIRMLY" and declares
that henceforth the war is to be waged for
the destruction of the rights of property-for
the entire abolition of negro slavery on this
continent
The announcement of this policy by the
great Mogui of Abolitionism will surprise no
one in the South, and creates not the slight
est sensation. 1t is in perfect accordance
with the - Chicago Platform - on which Abe
Lincoln was elected-the q irrepressible con-
fict between slave labor and white labor, y
could have failed to see that to this complex
ion it would come at last. With the shrewd-
nessand low cunning which are Lincolns most
prominent characteristics, he issues the proc
1amation at this time for the purpose of
lettering the people of the border States-of
Kentucky, Tennessee, Maryland and Missouri
from joining the victorious and ever-con-
quering armies of the Southern Confederacy.
But, "whom the Gods would destroy, they
first make mad, /" and we have no doubt that
the effect of this measure will be to drive
thousands upon thousands to our standard
who would otherwise have clung to the old
concern from mere habit, or remained neutral
spectators of. the conflict. Not only so, but
if there be any sincerity in the professions of
the people of the Northwestern States
especially Illinois and Indiana-that they are
not fighting for the overthrow of slavery, but
for the restoration of the Union-they will at
once renounce Lincoln and his policy, and
refuse to aid him any longer in the unholy
war he is prosecuting. They must now see
that the Union is hopelessly dissolved; that
its restoration is utterly impossible that
the Constitution, framed and adopted by our
forefathers as a bond of Union, has been
shamefully violated and trodden under foot,
and that not an iota of civil, constitutional
liberty remains to the people of the Lincoln

FATAL DUEL.-A correspondent Of the
Columbus Times, from Charleston says /:
duel was fought near here on the
9Th, between Col. w. Ransom Calhoun,
commander at Fort Sumter and a nephew
of the great John c.. and Major
Rhett, son of Barnwell Rhett, which re-
suited in the death of the former. This
is the second duel Maj. Rhett has fought
lately the origin of both difficulties, il is
said. growing out of remarks made him
self concerning Col. Calhoun. The com
munity mourn the loss of Col. Calhoun.
He graduated at West Point In 1850.
and ranked high as a military leader.
Maj. Rhett is much esteemed. and, should
be continue in the army, rises to the
place made vacant by the death of Col.
Calhoun, both being in the same regi-
ment.

CACTIoN TO VoTERs.-The tickets for the
election next Monday have been printed diff
ferently from what they have been at cleo
lions heretofore, and the voter must keep a
tight eve open or he will lose his ballot. The
names of all the candidates, with one or two
exceptions, have been placed on the same
ticket, and the voter, instead of filing in
names. as heretofore, has simply to erase, or
'scratch out" all for each Office except the
name of the person for whom he wishes to
vote The erasures should be made with a
pencil, bat if pen and ink are used, the voter
should take care not to fold his ticket until
the ink becomes dry, else he may blot out
che names Of some for whom he intended to
vote. II dae attention is paid to these pre-
cautions, very few votes will be thrown out.

lFrom the Boston journal, 18th.
BJ the arrival Of the schooner Flying Dragon
At this port yesterday, We hare Intelligence
from New Orleans, to the I'D u1t, On which
day the vessel sailed from that city.
The health OF New Orleans is very good,
aud the troops are in. fine condition. There Is
no yellow fever, and It is hoped that from the
san sanitary regulations being enforced, there
FILL be much less than the usual number OF
cases. The river Was quite high at the time
the Flying Dragon sailed, and the present
general good health is attributed to this.
Eont1cM prisoners continue to be sent to
Fort jackson, from two to sir going down
each day. A few days before the Flying
Oragon sailed there was a funeral in the city,
and the coffin WAS deposited, after the usual
ceremonies, In tomb. From information
which Gen. Butler had received he ordered
an examination Of the coffin to be made after
ward, as the cause Of the death Of the person
70 which It WAS said to contain YVES not salts
factory to him. On opening the coffin no
corpse Was found, but in it's place q large
amount of gold coin, which was Immediately
taken possession Of In the name Of the Gov
erDment- Specie continues to be found which
has been secreted By the rebels, and in all
cases It is seized.
The Flying Dragon WIS first chartered by
Col Butler, brother,to the General, at Hayana,
to carry cargo Of army stores to New Or.
