This 6ns steamer left this city Thursday
evening, At eight o'clock, for Memphis, with
splendid cargo, consisting OF dry goods,
groceries and produce When about nine
miles below the city landing was ordered
by Captain Pepper; but, owing to some
misunderstanding between the pilot and

freight in the hold will be saved, OF course,
in damaged condition. provided the boat

A gentleman who for twelve months
has been attempting to get away from
the South, succeeded several days ago
in reaching our lines, and is now in
Washington. lie occupied a respecta.
BILE position under the Confederate
Government, and bad abundant cppor-
tunity for learning the real condition
Of affairs in that section. He repre-.
sents that the CONSUMPTION is actively
progressing. and that persons between
the ages of l6 and SIS are being sent
to the army. Telegraphers, express
men, and railroad employees continue
exempt from military duty. The Reb.
ell authorities are making every effort
to get every available man into the
army. About $4,000 Of the new lev.
les have been seut to reinforce Gen.
Lee. Hoods army numbers about
10000. There are few troops be-
side these two armies. and they are
scattered over the South. The gentle
man says that thousands of the SOL
dicrs would. if they could. escape
from service, and in some sections if
an opportunity was offered the Union
feeling would emphatically manifest
itself. He bought some gold before
he left Richmond, paying $25 in Con-
federate money for 81 in coin. Just
after Early's defeat in the Valley a
dollar in gold could not be bought for
less than $50 in paper. He says no
one out Of the Confedcracy can have
correct idea Of the ravagcs of war,
both on agriculture and trade.
Late rebel newspapers give us the
particulars Of the movements Of Gen.
Hoods army from Gadsden, Ala
towards Gunter's Landing. on the Ten.
nessee river. The most astounding
results are prophesied, but" says IA
correspondent of the Savannah Repub.
bean. 1T is to be regretted that Gen.
Hoods army is SO badly provided with
blankets and shoes in this extraordi-
nary movement. Whole regiments
are bare footed, while blankets with
any of the men is rather the exception
than the rule" The Union garrison
Of Atlanta is given as 5000 effective
men.

only is it most splendid remedy for
coughs, sudden colds, influenza, Group,
and all throat complaints, but it is the
consumptive's great relief. When
they are so far gone that no medicine
will ever cure them, Goes Cough Bal.
sam will be found an invaluable friend
