Affairs at yicksburg.
Secretaries .

The following is an extract from prl-
vate letter written by rebel officer who
was commissary in the army Of Pember-
ton, to a relative residing in this town.
1t gives some interesting particulars of the
condition of the rebels at Vicksburg pre-
vious to and at the time of its surrender,
which coming from the source and in the
manner they do, are probably reliable:
~ am in the Confederate army as COM
missary of subsistence to my regiment,
with the rank of Captain. My regiment
is the 4oth Mississippi, Col. Colbert, Gen.
Moore's brigade, Gen. Forney's division.
have been here six months, was at the
battles of Iuka, Corinth and Fort Pember-
ton on the Yazoo Unexpectedly to me
my health has been very good in the ar
my, and though | have had several narrow
escapes, | have never been injured by
shot and shell. This place, Vicksburg,
surrendered on the 4th of July, for the
want of provisions, after holding out for
forty eight days. The place was so COM
pletely invested by the Federal army,
that it was impossible for any one to pass
in or out except by the river, and then
only in the night in the very smallest of
boats made of hollow logs, or by floating
on planks. During the siege of forty
eight days there were probably not more
than twenty individuals passed in or out.
We were almost entirely dependent upon
Federal papers for news from the ontside,
and they were obtained from Federal SOL
diers by our pickets. Provisions were
scarcer than ever before known in Amer
ica At the last the soldiers were nearly
in starvation, eating everything that
would bear eating at all, not excepting
rats. "Mule's" steak was a regular dish
for several days; fortunately for myself
had laid in a supply of good ham and
-four the first day of the siege, so 1 did
not suffer at all. Flour sold as high as
SIS pound, ordinary biscuits SIS dozen,
fresh pork So pound, beef $3.50 a
pound, moasses $40 gallon, milk 50
gallon, butter $3.50 pound, eggs So
and other articles in proportion. Such
privations have not been witnessed before
in many centuries, and that, too, by
sold.ery composed in many cases, of the
wealthiest sons of the South, the young
men who spent their thousands every sum-
mer at Sara .oga, Niagara, Nahant, New
York, Newport, &C., in the good old times
of yore. We have been paroled and
march towards jackson tomorrow. We
have been very kindly treated by the
Federal authorities, no restriction has been
placed upon us since the capitulation, and
the Federal Government has fed us boun-
tifully while the work of paroling was
going on, and given us rations to march
out with. The total number of our forces
here is little over ~ 900, sick and WELL
So strong is this place that had we an
abundance of provisions we could have
held it as long as we desired against lOO,-
900 men. The troops of both armies are
on the best of terms, camped side by side,

careful estimate has been made IN /
quarters of the prisoners taken, an
number killed and wounded IN the 4
rebel armies during June and JuyI
it is found that with liberal es.1I
their forces, their available strens
ing that time has been reduced n
half. If we eXaggerate the forces
various points in the Conieder
hard to make their army reach

The Eject Abroad

TIE persistent attacks upon the Gov.
ernnent by Democratic politicians and
Democratic papers, is having its legit.
mate effect abroad; aud is damaging
US more in this way than in any other.
Intelligent men at home know just what
these demonstrations mean. They ex-
cite no alarm but only pity that mon
can be found so false to their country
and themselves. But in Europe these tra:-
torous utterances are taken as the express
sion of the sentiments of very large class,
if not of a majority of the people of the
North, or if there are any who understand
them, they are SO hostile that they gladly
foster and encourage the public opinion
If foreign Intervention ever comes, it will
come because it is invited by the copper
heads of the North, who have made for.
eign natiORs believe that such Intervention
is desired, The correspondent of the New
York Commercial 4dUertjser says in hisIast
letter from Paris:
They have been led to believe, too, that
the Democratic party in the NOrth-that
is to say, majority of the peoplc-will
accept the end of the war even ut the
hands of France, and that France will only
offend the Republican party in America,
while gaining the friendship of the whole
people of the South aud OF majority Of
those OF the North.
MNlokoff, the correspondent of the New
York Times, who is always very we'll in
formed and to the poirt, writes to the same
effect:
From all these facts may be permitted
to make two recommendations First, 10
push on the iron-cIads; and, second, that
you try to convince the factious citizens of
the North that their opposition to the Ad-
is inviting this foreign utter
vention, and that their conduct is q mon
slrous treason to their country and to their
own interests.
This, then, is where VIC are drifting.
The coppcrheads are growing boldcr and
holder every day, aud if VIC do not have
some victories very soon to silence their

because recent indications must prove to
them there is nothing finally to be hoped
tor on any such basis. Mr.. Douglas
warned the people of the Northwest as to
what the rebels expected in this regnrIas
long ago as May, 1861, in a speech which
he delivered at Chicago, when he said
81 know that they 1.-THE secessionistsl
have expected a united .SoutL, o0ainst n
dicided North. The conspirators have
been led to the hope that in the Northern
States it would be party question pro-
duclng civil war between Democrats and
Republicans, aud tho South being united
would step in with their legions and help
destroy the one, and then conquer the vic
tor. The scheme was bloodshed and civ

Who can doubt now that Mr.. DOUGLAS
was perfectly clear in his conceptions and
conclusions when he thus and so emphat.
ically uttered solemn words of warnino
nearly with his last breath to the neonie
OF the North, and what weight they should

oy which was enabled to see tho means
through which the people have been blind
ed, deceived and cheated into their present
position, might have seen the rebellion as
Mr. Adams does, or as Mr.. Seymour of
New York does. But the asserted unitv of
sentiment in the South is fiction. The
people are only brought up to defend the
institution of slavery now because they have
no leader to head revolt. If the United
States held any State with strong hand,
but little time would elapse before the man
who preferred revolt against that power
would be in danger of his life, and if the
war lasts two years more / expect to see
JEFF. Davis and his confederate rebels seek

and angered people at home"
