THE Wall OF DESPAIR.


Matters must be going very badly with the
rebellion, when organs of treason like the
Charleston Mercury indulges in groans like the
following from that journal of the 18th. Itsays,
sThe condition of this Military Department
of Georgia and South Carolina is anything but
satisfactory, and TO none less so, than to the
General Commanding. His Department has
been newly turned into his hands, and many OF
the troops are new to him and the Department
They are herd of straglers and outlaws, under
command of an imbecile. What has been done
to eradicate this fatal evil we shall not stop to
inquire. The very last moment is arriving
when all must be done that is to be done. The
enemy does not intend to wait upon our leisure.
and there Is much TO do. We are 7o1o traUeliyq
straight 10 destruction The crisis of the Con-.
federdcyhds drTiued iH fatal earnest. The result
of the next six months viii bring the Confeder-
acy to the ground or viii reinstate its power
Withola reform zoe are doomed. There must be
no more JEFF DdUiS' fooIing but brains and a
severe reform, shooting, cashiering order for the
subordination of soldiers and not Tq,7lGtcav rag
nu6iss and r,.tidnS.
The Richmond papers talk in strain similar
to the above. The poor fools do notsee, or af-
feet to not see, thatit does not lie in the power
of jeff Davis, or any other person to afford
them relief Their cause is doomed. Their
rebellious necks must bow TO the authority OF
the Government

WHO rs HEg

George w. Curtis, in lecture deliver
ed at Providence, made the following state.
At private meeting in New York, Of
capitalists and secessionistS, held in the Sc
cession year, one of the leading men pro-
posed that the terms of Southern men be
accepted in advance. And one of the larg-
est merchants in that city-I grieve to say
he was born in New England-sprang to
his feet as politician sat down, and said /:
30, gentlemen, how beautiful is peace. l
say amen, | say amen" While another
merchant of that city, not born in New
England, but in Scotland, landing on these
shores a peniless boy, now rose as his fel-
low merchant sat down: "Gentlemen," he
said, 81 am merchant; | am trader, and
trade requires peace; the south owes me at
least million dollars; | wish ike all mer-
chants, that the debt shall be paid to me
but should the south raise its hand against
the Union and the Government which has
made me all | am, and given me all have,
| will cheerfully lose that Million will
eheerfully lose every dollar and every cent
have in the world, to vindicate and main
tain the Government of the United States.

Who sacked Atlanta.

The Richmond papers have printed exciting
accounts of the robbery and destruction of prop
erty in Atlanta by our troops; but the Augusta
Constitutionalist now confesses that the sacking
was done by the Georgians themselves. 1t
gives this lively account of how it was done.
Soon after the Yankees left the country peo-
pie hocked by scores from all parts of the cOun-
try, some coming over one hundred miles. Eve
ry description of vehicle, drawn by mules, horses
stations, jacks, jennies, oxen, bullOcks ETC.,
could be seen upon the streets. The scene beg
gars description. Iron, salt, bacon, -four, sugar,
coffee, hides and everything else left by the Yam
KEGS, were unceremoniously deposited in wag-
ons and carts and driven off. But our country
cousins did not stop at that. They entered the
dwelling houses of those absent and gutted them
of all their furniture. One lady who left he,.
house for few hours to attend to pressing b as
mess was astonished to find, on her return. all
of her furniture and wearing apparel gone. Full
ly one hundred and fifty pianos were Carried off
by the hoosiers, many of whom were unused TO
any concord of sweet sounds" save that pro-
duced by a jewsharp or fiddle, One of them.
an iHiterate backwOodsman, who resided in
humble hut, ten by twelve, was seen carving
out magnificent piano in a small cart drawn
by two year bullock. A venerable dame was
ObserVd trying to haul into her cart fine piano
by means OF EoPe attached to the legs When
asked what she was doing, she replied that she
had fopa6a emity nice table in thar, and was
trying to get il in her keart." One map alone
carried off over $50,0O0 worth of dry hides
Steps have been taken to secure all the articles
carried off, as well as the offenders. Already
much of the property has been recovered

The number who oppose the abolition OF
slavery, (now minority is not likely to
growlarger, butto grow less, with the prog
ress of time. Every democrat can, of
course, hold whatever opinion he chooses
on that subject Such opinions are not

Individual Democrats viii think what they
please; but the subject must be dismissed
from-the range of topics on which the par

There is no conceivable position on the
slavery question on which the Democratic
party can plant itself and become q ma

WHY MORE MEN ARR NEEnEn.

The New York Post says: The question
at issue now is nothing less than this:
Shall the war be closed in another cam
paign, or shall we permit it to drag on for
another year, OF, perhaps, two or three
years! If the country comes to the help
of the armies in the field, Lees army can be
destroyed within sixty days; and in that
case the rebels will not have single formi-
dable army east of the Mississippi. But if
Lee can maintain himself for six months
longer another army can be raised by the
rebels IN the south to give US trouble, and
to face us even if Lee were destroyed. 1t
is of the most vital importance, therefore,
that our armies shall be strengthened, at
once, so as to gain this required success
over Lee before any other rebel force can
be organized and be put into the field.
