MISTAKEN LENIENCY.

There can be no doubt that as people VIC have
been entirely too lenient towards those whose
fidelity to doubted. AS the Atlanta
lutellsencer remarks-"with that nagnanimty
and generosity which are characteristic of the
proud Southron, we have permitted designing
knaves to remain among us unmoested, and to
thrive upon our caamities, amassing fortunes and
gathering information to be used for our destruc-
ton
These observations are elected from the Intel
iigencer, 10 reuarking upoG the expulsion from
| the Legislature Of Georgia of f. W. Aired, who
was elected a member from Pickens county in
1868, and when the vandal hordes invaded his
portion of the State, he raised company of the
| tory element around him and excelled the Yankees
themselves in desolating and destroying the beau
tifu farms of that region burning their houses and
driving women and children from their homes
There are wrctches like this fend Aired in
North Carolina, whose fidelity is doubted by every
true man in the community, but are yet permitted
to remain here, pursuing their avocations, sowing
seeds OF discod and dissatisfaction among our peo-
pie, and who would be the first to welcome the
vandals in the capture of the town where they live,
or the invasion of the country they inhabt and aid
the vile wrctches in applying the scourge to the
person and the flames to the property of every true
man whom they would point out to their Yankee
! brethren, as objects upon whom to visit their
vengeance
Such persons ought not to be permitted to re-
main in our midst The authorities should be
"viglant in ferreting out infdelity to our cause :;
aud when the leprous spot is found whether it be
on blooming youth or trembling age, make an ex-
ample ofit, by requiring the possessor of it to re-
move beyond the limits of the Confederacy.

such times as these we want none who are valiant
rebels when the enemy is far away, but are ready

flag Raising By the Governorss
GmaFd

sUuuvAEs BRAScH, n. ". R. h, January.
Ma EDIToR:-Our camp to-day was
the scene of an act that ever calls forth
an outburst OF the hottest feelings that
the Almighty has instilled into the ps-
triot's heart;
At ten O'Clock the battalion was
drawn up to witness, for the FIRST time
since the rebellion, the uBfurling of the
stars and stripes in ChesthAm county.
Whilst the hearty cheers of the 10th
Tennessee Infantry mingled with the
long, loud peals of the LIST Kansas Bat
terry, and our soul stirring band shook
the thousand neighboring bills with
the echoes of the Star Spangled
Banner, our brave and accomplished
commander, Lieutenant Colonel Scully,
unfurled our glorious flag, which was
waited in most magnificent style by
gentle breeze from the North to its des-
tined height of 100 feet. The effect was
grand-the scene sublime, and to the
hearts of Union men, to whom for miles
around it can be seen, it will shine as
the beacon light of ap preaching freedom,
as 3 GOd-send that will rend ssunder
the chains of Southern bondage. The
brave men of the 10Th were the repre-
sentatiVes of the soil that has been rem
dered sacred by the acts of her jackson
Polk, and Johnson, who pride themselves
as the first flag raisers of Cheatham
county, viii, assure you, be the last to
see that emblem of liberty succumb to
the hellish rebellion. The occasion con-
Guided with an eloquent address from
our worthy chaplain, three long, hearty
cheers for the stars and stripes, three
more for Gov. johnson, and still = shout
for all those engaged in the holy ca use

to Congress itssif-mush more 70 the
President.
Yet Mr. Chase has sssamsd, under The
general action Of Congress- intended
merely to prevent supplies from reaching
the armed enemy, to impose duties and
collect them. BE has arrogsied TO him
self that koislatius power which above
ali others, The trainers Of our Constitution
thought worthy to be gusrded BY mani
fold restrictions. A duty of five per
cent. on the invoice cost has been for
more than : year collected on all ship
ments Of merchandise for sale to this
State from other portions Of the United
States. And we rather suspect, the
same arbitrary power is exercised by
some of the Sscretary's Supervising
Special Agents; for we have seen 3 new
string Of regulations published in some
Of the newspapers, not signed by the
Secretary. They were introduced in
soma Of the journals, IS adgptsd-perhaps
By Convention Of Supervising Special
Agents, Surveyors, etc, who legislaie in
the delicate matter of taxation without
representation, and forward their legis-
lation to Ne. Chase for his approval.
In one of these (ihe eighteenth the
work of laying US poor sinners under
tribute is finished up neatly in the fol-
loving language:
(" In order to equalize assessments on
all goods transported to Stat and parts
Of S ates declared in instruction, per-
sons obtaining permits TO purchase
family or plantation supplies in States 80
declared, in addition to the fees pre-
scribed, will be required to pay FIVE per
cent. on the sworn invoice value Of such
family and plantation supplies"
Prior to the adoption and issuance Of
this sovereign edict, loyal citizen of
Tennessee might send to Boston, New
York, Cincinnati, or Louisville, for his
family supplies, and get them through
without paying the five per cent But it
was no doubt discovered that by his Ia
king such course, the privileged horde
of mercantile camp followers, with theU
licensed trade stores" were cheated Of
not little traffic which Of right belongs
to them as conquerSrs. Hence the 18Th
regulation of tia new series, to equq7ize
matters. First, such q set of regulations
is made and such tariff is laid on mer-
chandise, as are calculated to drive re-
spectacle merchants out and ill their
places with sharks and smugglers and
hen, lest the consumer should SPUN
ibese pretty pets, and send for his sup
plies to respectable merchants in North \
I'm cities he too is taxed with the five
lsF cent, that there may be no lodging. |
