Discomfort in the Southern Army

The admissions in the following article
from the Richmond Sentinel, jeff Davis
official organ, are worthy of notice:
Thus far the patriotism and sense of
the army has been proof against all the
appliances of the stay at home eroakers.
Thus far the soldiers have maintained
their own cheerful courage, and individ-
ually rebuked the complainings of the
idle.
But these baleful influences W II have
their effect after a while. Continual
dropping wears away stones. 1t is al
legged in the army itself that much evil
has already been produced among the
soldiers from certain locality aohere
the cause Of croaking aOas most common.
This is the natural tendency and newt
able result, and we may expect it on a
larger and general scale if the causes
continue. The habitual, reckless, and
indiscriminate assailants of the President
and of everybody and everything, are
more injurious to us than the armies of
the enemy. They are still at their acork
and aoiU ruin as anLesS the people put

Rebels Concentrating at Columbus,
mfss.-Gov. Brown, OF Georgia, Is
sues a Proclamation.

CAIRO, Oct. 10.-The rebels under
General Lee, of Johnston's staff, are
said to be concentrating near Columbus,
Miss, where the Confederates have ex-
tensive iron and other manufactures and
strong works of defense.
Gov Brown, of Georgia, has issued
proclamation protesting against the siez-
ure of personal property for the use of
the Rebel Government, except in cases
where the authority emenates from head
quarters He calls on the State to resist
the impressment of property when such
authority cannot be produced. Persons
attempting such impressment are to be
committed to Jail until warrant is sued
against them for robbing.
Advices from Little Rock are satisfac-

Southern papers notice a decline of
from 300 to 400 per cent in gold,
Evansville daily journal., 1863-10-12

By the above calculation | find that
the property pays for itself in six and a
half years, three times in fifteen years,
seven times in twenty-five years, and
fifteen times in thirty-five years, which
is the average of mans term of life. |
have made no calculations as to the ad-
vance in the value of the property or an
increase in rents, but suppose they would
at least keep the building in repair, " as
good as new and pay other expenses
nor that more than 6 per cent interest
could be obtained for the accumulations,
although know that some of our capital
lists know how to get or 10, or even
more, per cent on their money.
then thought that probably the prop
erty had not cost more than 'tJustiee's'
valuation, but it occurred to me by the
same reasoning that it does not cost
more than % cents to produce bushel
of potatoes, yet if we cannot find a sub
stitute we would pay dollar per b1shel
in the market. A gold dollar is worth
| 100 cents, but if we can use it at 145
we regard that as its value. l have
heard that land in Pennsylvania, few
years ago, sold at s. per acre, but coal
oil well having been sunk on it which
Welded several thousand gallons oil per
| day, it had been sold for 8, 500 per acre
| Stock in Bank, an Insurance Company,
or any other association having valuable
chartered privileges and paying large
dividends, with probability of sue
cessful continuance for term of years,
would be sought after and command a
premium of so or 100, or even more per
cent.
l then concluded that Real Estate, so
situated that it would always be in de-
mand for rent and paying large per
cent on the investment, would be con-
sidered desirable even at an advance on
its original cost If, as you show, that
the property will pay over eight per
cent. net on $4,000, some might be
willing to put their money in an invest
ment of this kind, as Real Estate in
these uncertain tines has as much value
as anything else-for values like man s
wants are imaginary. But am taking
too much of your valuable space |
think the calculation clearly shows chow
to make money" Those who are inter
ested in the purchase will make their
own estimates of value and as the sale
will take place ON Thursday, the 18th
inst, at auction we will see who is the
lucky one that will secure this and other
valuable property then to be sold

Mr. Bernard Nurre is dying for an
Office He can think of nothing else by
day and dreams of nothing else by night
He seems to be thoroughly satisfied that
he is fully qualified for any position or
any trust His modesty is of the true
Copperhead stripe. One Office will
hardly satisfy him. His ambition grows
with what it feeds upon and he is already
dissatisfied with so humble position as
Commissioner unless it will answer as
stepping stone to other positions of prom
inence. He has tried for the honorable
position of City Councilman, but the citi-
zens in his ward thought they could do
better, and elected better man. By
some hocus pocus he got on the Board of
County Commissioners. EMr. Pruitt,
we suppose, wanted couple of men
that he could control When Judge
Foster was on the Board, he had to take
back seat, and he became restive un-
der such restraint. He already had Mr..
Hogue under his thumb, and by putting
Mr.. Nurre on the Board to fill Judge
Foster S place, he virtually became auto
erat of the county. This accounts for
Mr. Nurre being Commissioner at the
present time. We respectfully call the
attention of the people to this fact that
they may put some man on the Board
who will not be a mere echo of Mr..
Pruitt.
But, as we remarked, Mr.. Nurre must
have an ofice-a paying Office if he can
get it, e not, nominal one is not unac
ceptible. At the recent meeting of the
Stockholders of the E. & c. Railroad
Mr. Nurre was appointed to represent
the stock held by the county, in the cleo
ton of Directors. The county owns a
good deal of stock-as much as $l0O,
900. Mr. Nurre, having such strength,
concluded then was the time to strike
for another Office. Accordingly wher
the vote for Directors was taken, ht
UOted for himself as Director HI
seems to have been laboring under tht
impression that Judge Fosters mantle
had fallen upon his shoulders, and mas
much as he took that gentleman's plac'
as Commissioner, he was also entitled t.
his place as Railroad Director. But tn
other stockholders couldn't see it, ant
the old gentleman's vanity met with an
other fall. His own vote was all that h
received All of the other stock wen
for somebody else. Another instance c
want of appreciation of financial abilit
of the highest order, energy, industr
and nlodestyi
In the light of the above circumstanc
the people may rest assured tn;
however others may go, Mr.. Nurre is ce
tain of at least one Uote as Commission
er. And if the election is as close 6
some have been known, his own vote vii
