A STIR AMONG THE UNNATURAL.
ICED.

We understand, says the Petersburg Express.
that there is considerable excitement among the
unnaturalized sswhite folks'' in the Confederacy
They are very apprehensive that one of the first
steps of Congress, upon its re-assemblng, will be
to put those among them who are of proper age
and fit for service, in the army. This apprehen-
sion we sincerely hope, is very well founded; for
Congress will be exceedingly remiss in its duty
if it does not promptly pass bill, to go forth
with into effect, to bring alien residents in the
Confederacy, who are within the conscript age
into the service. The law must be a stringent
one, for there will be an infinite deal of hard
swearing about ssa temporary residence the
ssGninso TeUertendi,' &c. Some ought to get off
on the ssanin1o reoertendi, 'principle but in our
opinion, very few are entitled to come within this
rule Certainly, no man of proper age for service,
who has been engaged in business in the Con-
federacy since the war began, let him swear new
er so hard, should be exempted under this prin-
ciple. If he does not love us we'll enough to be
imbued with the ssaninpo 7aanendin - q little gen.
uine persuasion should be applied to induce him
to sspitch his tent and tabernacle with uso The
idea is intolerable that while onr relatives of ey-
cry degree are subjected to the dangers and pri :
vations OF the field, set of men, who are amongst
us for the purpose of feathering their own nest
no matter at what cost to the Confederacy, should
shirk service ON the plea that they are Aliens
They stay here, are protected by our laws in
their persons and property, pay no taxes for sup
port of Government, diseredit the credit of the
Government that protects them by boarding the
ssmetals'' to them so s.precious,' % and then will
fly the country to enjoy the wealth they will take
with them rather than lift an arm or pay dollar
for the defense OF the asylum that has given them
protection and wealth. Let Congress, if it has
either the brains or the nerve to do SO, deal
promptly with these gentry. The country ex-
poets this legislation, and will be satisfied with
nothing else.

A PArRIOTIC SPEECH.

General Forrest, during recent visit to his
family in Upper Georgia., made patriotic ap-
peal to his former command. Annexed is an ex-
tract from it:
SOLDIERS Your homes are devastated by a
foe which, deaf to the pleadings of humanity,
neither spares the gentleness of WON an, the fee
bleness of old age, nor the heplessness of infan-
cy. You are sustained by every incentive that
nerves the patriot, exalts the hero, or fires the
energies of the freeman. If home-family-
friends-liberty cannot move you to action, then,
indeed, is the heel of the despot upon our necks.
If you cannot be stirred by those haliowed as
sociations, we are subjugated people, ready
for the yoke which tyrants have so long made
for slaves and towards. The Confederate BAN
ner, red with the blood of your own people and
kinsmen, is waving in triumph in almost every
part of the country. Equal to the duties and
sacrifices of the hour, our homes will soon be
freed, our wandering families once more made
happy around the old hearthstones, and our ban.
ner everywhere floating over victorious and
unconquerable people.

TRUE PATRIOTISM.

Private Minner Of Chapman 8 battery, who re-
ceived mortal wound at the battle near the
White Sulphur, left his property, Sis, 1000, after
the death OF his mother, to the Confederacy.
What an illustration does this example present
OF the profoundness and intensity of the love of
country which glows in the hearts of our South
ern sOldiers What contrast to the base and
selfish greed which has swallowed up all patriot
ism in the bosoms of extortioners and specula-
tors Can they read such case as this with
out blushing scarlet at their conscious vileness
Here is private soldier, giving his lie the last
drop of his blood, and the last breath of his
brave soul, to his country, and with that last
breath bequeathing to her every dollar of his
possessions And here are they, who have new
er for one hour put their persons in peril who
are grasping at every chance to make money out
of the necessities of the army, who are waxing
fat upon the suferings of the people, and are
clutching at every grain of corn, and boarding
every grain that they clutch, deaf to the groans
and wailings of the wretched and famishing, and
only eager to enrich their despicable selves,
though 1t be at the expense of the lives OF their
fellow men and the independence of their coun-
try. Who would not rather be the dead hero,
whose memory will be surrounded by halo of
immortal light, so long as Freedom has a habi-
tation among men, and Patriotism shrine upon
the earth, than the most gross and pampered OF
those birds of prey, whose talons are tearing out
the hearts of the needy, and whose greedy beaks
are forever thrust into every vein and artery OF
suffering people.-[Dispatch.

AFFAIRS IN TENNssEE.-Private accounts from
East Tennessee [says the Petersburg Express, ]
encourage the hope that the Yankees are destin-
ed to an awful waking up in the course of avery
few days. That Knoxville will be re Occupied We
have but little doubt, nor shall we be surprised
if the pressure should turn out to be so reat as
to compel Grant 10 eyacuate Chattanooga and
seek safety for the old army of Rosencrans.
The Savannah Republican of Friday last says, ne
have now two heavy columns in East Tennessee,
marching from opposite directions, and they viii
probably close in around Burnside before he is
aware of it. There Is also prospect that be
will find the gaps in the Cumberland Mountains
closed should he attempt an escape in that di-
rection.
Burnside driven to the wall, the army of R0-
sencrans, now commanded by Sherman, will hasS
It's hands full, with the two columns referred to
united On one side of him, and Bragg on the 9TH
er, whilst Wheeler, with his fifteen thousand
cavalry, win distress them little by operations
on their line of communication with Murtrees-
boro' and Nashville.
Upon the whole, the Republican thinks the
prospect is cheering for brilliant campaign in
Tennessee It only needs now few dashes of
the Stonewall order to make the State too hot
for the Yankees to subsist in and compel has
ty retreat. Shall we have them Did all of
Jackson's spirit die with him We hope not
If any be left, it has now glorious opportunity
for display, and the man who wins the mantle
of the dead hero is immortal.

GOVERNMENT WHIsKEY.-Wha does the Con-
federate Government do with all of its whiskey
Rock kbridge is manufacturing it at the rate OF
nearly 20O,0 gallons per year, Augusta county
about 800, 900 gallons, giving total amount for
two counties Of 100000. Suppose these two
counties to make one tenth of all that is made in
the State, (Which is probably a low estimate)
and we have FIVE MILLIONS [5,OO0,O0O] OF GAL
Ions as Virginia's contribution to this line OF
supplies. Now if all the other States together
furnish as much more, We have no less than TEN
MILLIONS (l0,O00,00O) OF GALLONS. Thls Is @
nough to deluge all the hospitals in the Confed
eracy with all the patients they contain.-LLex

Fort sUMrER- THE BonBAHDMENr AGAINST IT

Fort SUMTER THE COMMANDMENT AGAINST IT.
A Yankee correspondent, writing of the bom-
bardment of Fort Sumter, says
Perhaps no greater example of stern, stubborn
resistance exists in all modern warfare than the
persistent holding of this point by the rebels; GER
talnly history does not record one.
To describe the appearance of Fort Sumter,
in few words, it is like huge honey-conb.
The only part of the fort which bears any traces
of identity is the southwest angle. The balance
of the southern wall, exposed so long to our
fire, is a mountain of pulverized brick and NOR
tar The eastern or sea face, which is exposed
to the fire both of our ships and shore batteries,
is perhaps the most demolished of all battered,
bunged and crushed worse than the countenance
of any prize fighter. The walls
are now perfectly able of being scaled, from two
to two.and -a-half feet having been shot away
within the past eight days. Tho
defence of Fort Sumter cannot fail to stir in the
hearts of our men that feeling of respect which
the true soldier always has for brave and de-
termined foe.

THE MARYLAND ELECTION The New York
Tribune is very hapy over the election, in Bal
timore. While expressing Joy over the result
it says
have clear majority in favor of calling a con-
vention to make Maryland free State. We
have carefully classified both bodies, and the
Legislature will stand largely committed to e.
Emancipation. In the Senate, IL members out of
2I, and in the House 81 out of IA, are pledged
to convention for making away with slavery
Besides, it is thought that many of the Ucion
members who are not pledged to convention
| will likewise vote for it.

POETRY.
Pm Growing Old.
Ny days pass pleasantly away.

MY Gays pass pleasantly away,
My nights are blest with sweetest sleep !:
feel no symptoms of decay,
have no cause to mourn nor weep:
My foes are impotent and shy:
Ny friends are neither false nor cold,
And yet of late often sigh
I'm growing old
My growing talk of olden times,
My growing thirst for early news,
My growing apathy to rhymes,
My growing love of easy shoes;
Ny growing hate of crowds and noise,
My growing fear of taking cold,
All whisper in the plainest voice.
I'm growing old
Pm ing fonder of my staff,
I'm growing DINNER in the eyes;
I'm growing fainter IL my laugh,
I'm growing deeper in my sighs
I'm growing careless In my dress,
I'm growing careless of my gold
I'm growing Wise; I'm growing-yes--
I'm growing old
see it in my changing taste;
see it in my changing hair;
see it in my growing waist;
| see 1T in my growing heir;
A thousand signs proclaim the truth,
As plain as truth was ever told.
ssThat even in my vaunted youth,
Pm growing old!
An me!-my very laurels breathe
The tale in my reluctant years,
And every boon the hours bequeath
But makes me debtor to the years!
Fen fattery's honeyed words declare
The secret she would fain withhold,
And tells me in "How young you are /"
I'm growing old
Thanks for the years Whose rapid flight
My sombre muse too sadly sings
Thanks for the CLEANS of golden light
That tint the darkness of their wings:
The light that beams from cut the sky,
Those heavenly mansions to untold,
Where all are blest, and none may sigh,
I'm GROWING old
