hand it is con6dent..of victory. At Grenada
found the only regret to be that the enemy
had not come on. At Vicksburg, even withou.
achievements, the troops did not dream OF
defeat. As to the States on the 9TH
Or side Of the Mississippi, can say that
their future is bright The army is organized
and disciplined, and it is to be hoped that az
no distant day it may be able to advance into
that land which has been trodden under the
foot Of despotism, where old men have been
torn from their homes and imprisoned in dun
goons, where even the women have been sub
jscted TO the insults Of the brutal Yankee sol
diery-that under the flag Of the Confederacy
Missouri will again DO free.
can then say with confidence that our
condition is in every respect greatly improved
over whit il was last year. Our armies have
been augmented, our troops have been in
structed and disciplined The articles necessa-
ry for the support Of our troops and our peo-
pie and from which the ensmy's blockade
has cut US off, are being produced in the Con-
federacy. Our manufactures have made rapid
progress. SO IN UGH is this the case that learn
with equal surprise and pleasure from the com
handing general of this department, that Mis-
sissippi alone can supply the army which is
upon her soil. Our people have learned to
econsmize, and are satisfied to wear homespun
| never see woman dressed in honespun that
do not feel like taking OF my hat to her; and
although our women never loose their good
looks, ! cannot help thinking that they are
improved by this garb. I never meet q man
dressed In homespun but feel like salu.in 9
him. 1 cannot avoid remarking with how
much pleasure have noticed the superior NOR
ality of our troops and the contrast which
in this respect they present to the invader
| can truly say that an army more pious
and more moral than that defending our lib.
critics, do not believe to exist On their valor
and the assistance Of God confidently rely.

By-The residence of our fellow citizen
and worthy Post Master, r. L. Phillips
Esq, was destroyed by fire on last Satur-
day evening about Z o'clock, the result
of accident.
"Uncle Bob" is too old citizen, and
too good a man, to be allowed to bear this
calamity in his declining years. Numer'
Gus friends were anxious to be the first
to step forward to his relief. His house
will be rebuilt by them comfortably and
completely. A his furniture was saved,
chiefly by the prompt and eager assistance
of detachment of soldiers, canped neal

citizens.
The temporary Inconvenience which
his family must suffer, will be repaid by
these substantial proofs of the esteem OF
his fellow citizens We are proud OF
Washington. They are the sort OF peo-
pie we like to live with.

The PRESIDENT SPEECH.-We pub.
lish the speech of President Davis to the
exclusion of other matte rs except sum-
mary of all news of public interest. We
have not the egotssna to suppose chat AN y
thing of OURS would be nearly SO iateres-
ting or useful.
1t is the right word fifty spoken. Tine,
place, and matter all concur to make it a
telling document. We hope all will read
it with deep reflection, most especially
that portion, which touches the miserable,
and hateful piece of demagoguery, which
is here and there whispered around, to mas
lead the honest masses int disaffec tios,
towards our glorious cause Circulate tn {
paper amongst your neigLbors Fully &C.
quaint yourselves with the patriotic sen
timents it contains and the high hopes il
holds out, aud make them the topics Of
conversation in all crowds. We would bt
highly gratifed to think that the III majority
of the numbers of cur present volume
would be half SO useful as this first one
we present to our readers.
Washington telegraph., 1863-01-21

NEW VoLUMR.-This number begins a new
volIme and we confidently expect to issue the
fifty second number of it next January
1t gratifes us to find that most of SUBJ
4 scribers appreciate the necessity which com
PEELED US to increase our subscription price
during the present difficulties. One little
point yet requires explanation. A few COM
plain that We publish only half sheet and
assume that they get only half as much as
they did before. moments comparison of
one of our present issue with the old full sheet
will convince them that the amount of news
matter is as great ever. The reduction in
size has been made at the expense of adver-
Using, (Which is to us a sacrifice of source
of profit,) AID of a weekly tale. or some long
speech, some such miscellaneous matter,
which had only literary interest. The pa per
is really as full of news formerly.
We have the desire, common, We think, with
all good men, to avoid the censure of old
friends, and wish to please them. 1t is not,
therefore, because we wish large subscription
list that We make this explanation, for We
5 ceally do not. Even five dollars year makes
us no adequate recompense Tor the anxiety,
labor, and expense of procuring material.
The smaller our list, the longer We will hold
out and the more certain are to keep the
Telegraph afioat through the war This we
intend to do, at any reasonable sacrifice. We
believe that it is useful to the country, and
the people shall have it.

AFFAIRS IN ARKANsAs.-The Camden
"Herald" of the 10th, learns by Tele-
egraph that the Federal gunboats attacked
Arkansas Post on Saturday EVENING" l0th)
and bombarded it until next afternoon,
when our troops evacuated the place aud
fell back to Pine Bluff. 1t learns further
from a private source that the Federal
troops are moving up the river, destroying
every species of property within their
reach, and there is a further rumor that
5000 of their cavalry are coming across
from DuvaPs Bluff to form a Junction
with the others. We were expected to
make stand at Pine Bluff These ru-
mors are not entirely reliable. but we give

By NoNpAY's MAIL.-The Eastern mail of
Monday night brought US only the Monroe
Register of the 18th. No private advices.
We CLEAN the following news items.
A Richmond dispatch of the 7th SAYS that
an expedition under Gen. Nagles has put to
sea from York and Gloucester. with enough
troops to take and hold sny point on the
Southern coast. Its probable destination is
Wilmington.
Mcclellan has been sent to Fortress Monroe
to organize the forces for another attack on
Richmo nd 1t is thought fight on Black
Water is imminent. (Our readers will remem-
Der that this is on the new road to Richmond,
on the south side of James river by the way
of Suffolk
Lincoln has approved the bill admitting
western Virginia into the Union, and has
issued his emancipation proclamation. He
declares that slaves will be re ceived into the
armed service of the United States.
The Federals took possession of Murfrees-
boro on the 5th One report, however, repre-
SCENTS them as returning back to Nashville.
Gov. Letcher, in his Message to tie General
Assembly of Virginia, says '.that the man who
breaches the doctrine of reconstru ction is q
traitor and deserves a traitors DOOM" We ac-
cord in that sentiment deliberately, as a mat
ter of Judgment. There is no honorable issue
for us but through total independence. He
who favors reconstruction is opposed to our
the struggle, and of course against
the South. He is not only traitor, but a
coward, who is whipped from
his pretended secession, and willing to submit
and be pardoned.
