HsRoto TREATMENT Prescribed TO

bla South Carolinian has discovered the
only means of saving the rebellion from
speedy destruction;
The war, if continued, can no longer
be conducted as it has been. Our ourren-
/ oy is so deprecated that II will soon cease
| 10 be available, Let no more paper money
| be issued. Let the whole contederacy be
/ divided into two classes---the combatants
! and the producers. As long as this war
/ shall last every one Of us must be salts
fed with shelter, food and clothing, and
nothing else. The soldiers and officers,
| from the highest TO the lowest must tight
without pay. Why should they need any
money when provided with the necessa-
ries and their families taken care of! Let
all the resources and productions OF ev-
ory farmer or planter be put at the dispo-
sal of the government without pay. Let
every woman and every child old enough
for the purpose be made to work without
pay. Let the president, and every civil
officer and employee have no pay. In
fact, let it be penal offence to bny or sell
| ANYTHING but let food. raiment, shelter,
and medicine be secured to every one un-
! der a parish or county organization, con-
trolled or supervised by the general gov
erment. In this way there would be no
| further increase Of our national debt in
fact, no currency would be necessary for
the time beings but every enc who should
have confederate notes in his pocket wo'd
then feel that they were good, and that he
would have something to fall back upon
| when peace is declared. 1t is on this
principle that Frederick the Great, when
. thSNexistence Of Prussia was at stake,
! carried on successfully his famous seven
years war against such odds as the world
had never seen before and never saw
since, Berlin, his capital, was taken and
sacked five or six times, and his whole
! territory turned almost into wilderness,
but he came cut of the war without
cent of debt. Why ? Because he seized
upon the whole of Prussia, and forced
every human being in it to contribute to
| its delverance. He dis not issue bonds,
but parted with his silver spoons, and ex-
pected the same sacrifice from all his sub
jects, He took everything in the name of
Prussia, and paid for nothing, we know
with what glorious results. Should we
adopt such a policy, which would instant
" put stop to the insrease OF our nation
al debt and would give the world the
sublime assurance Of our determination
not to fail, together with the undeniabe
proof of the impossibiltv Of oar falling,
because OF the very adoption O, SocN
