A opnfederate Screw 1,oo.e

The rebel papers are severe upon Governor
Brown of Georgia, and seem to have lost all
regard for their Wanted doctrine of state
sovereignty and state rights. The Richmond
Enquirer reviews the Governors recent mes
sage to the Legislature, which 1t says is a
document which no pure patriot can read
without the lveliest emotions OF disgust and
Indignation. 1t adds that the Governor must
blame only himself, If he has incurred the sus-
pieion Of having reaped the recompense and
the reward that precedes treason. 1t de-
nounces the Governor In the strongest terms.
and concludes by saying, that it can only be
regarded as an effort on his part to destroy
tne civil and military authority of the Con
ieoerate government. Its recommendations
would, II successful, result in subjugating the
people of all the States. 1t is recommends
ton to Georgia to abandon the Confederacy.
to break down the Confederate government
and army, and to retire each State within r.
seit' This is its meaning. II may be daubed
over with professions of loyalty, but 1t will. if
.Asoraoly responded to by the Legislature of
u5orsia, result in irretrievable ruin.

Governor Brown and the Negroes,

The Governor of Georgia is in a great deal
of tronble on account of the negroes. To
arm them, or not to arm them, is the question.
3 The Governor has recently called the Legis-
lature together to deliberate on the crisis
which Sherman has brought upon that fair
land. The negro question he argues as fol-
lows:
"He opposes the arming of slaves, believ-
ing them to be more valuable as agricultural
laborers than they could be as soldiers. They
do not wish to go into the army; and the
principal restraint now upon them is the fear
that, If they leave, the enemy will make them
fight. Compel them to take up arms and
they 1ctu desert by thousands. p
Whatever may be our opinion of their
normal condition or interests, zoe cannot eI-
pect them to perform deeds of heroisnl ,chile
fighting to continue the enslduenaent of their
Wiues and children, and it is not reasonable
to demand it of them. Whenever we estab-
lish the fact that they are military people,
zoe destroy our theory that they are unfit to
1e free. When zoe arm the SLAVES, zoe ADAM
don slavery" u {LU1 4e ~ 81 (
d The Governor reasons well. True enough,
when they arm the slaves, they abandon slav-
cry; and slavery must go down, not only in
Georgia, but also all over Dixie, and the soon
ca the Southerners make up their minds to
let slavery slide, the better for them. To that
complexion they must come at last.

Oxford Turpentine Company.

A company ofenterprising young men, from
Boston, late last fall, erected large building
at Welchville in Oxford, for manufacturing
tar and spirits of turpentine from pine stumps.
Before the ground froze, they drew out by the
use of machine, stumps enough to last them
through the winter. After the snow came
they hauled them to their factory, where they
are cut up fine ready for use. Ia their build
ing they have four large brick ''retorts," into
which the pitch wood is put and turpentine
extracted. In this process tar is produced,
while the volatile portions are carried off and
by the use of a condenser are converted into
spirits of turpentine /; from thence it is carried
into small outbuilding and prepared FOR use.
The pitch wood, after having the pitch extract
ed in the retort, is converted into fine arti-
Gle of charcoal and is then used to heat the re-
torts. Aside from the charcoal thus made,
but little fuel is needed for the heating pro-
cess. One cord ofpitch wood will make three
barrels Of tar, and about l8 gallons OF spirits.
When their works are In full operation, they
will make between 80 and 40 barrels of tar
and or barrels ofspirits per week. At the
present prices of these articles it is very
profitable business. There are pitch pine
stumps enough in the vicinity of their factory
to last them for years to come, which the own
ers are very glad to get pulled up aud carried
off out of the way Democrat. sN9Mn0

Impudence and Imposition.

Saturday evening quite a number of the
stauDchest Union men Of the city-men
who never had the first thought of breaking
from the Union party or boiling its nomina-
tions--found their names had been used with
out authority and without their knowledge,
10 make up what was pretentiously styled the
working and Enrolled Mems ticket" the
effect, If not the design of which was to break
down the Union party and throw the city into
the hands OF the Democrats. 1t was an un-
pardonable piece Of impudence thus to pa
rade the names at gentlemen in quasi cop
perhead sheet, and complicate them in an at.
tempt to carry out the scheme of the copper
head manipulators of the so-called working
mems party. We have given the names. by
authority, of some of the gentlemen who
have been thus insulted, and the names of
others will be found in this paper. M

Significant Hints from Richmond.

That the evacuation Of Richmond ia meat
sure that has been talked of In the rebel capt
tai is beyond question. 1t is equally true that
hints have been given out, more or less dis
tinctly, that the confederate army may 60
West. abandoning the present seat of their
conflict and make stand beyond the Missis-
sippi. We're these things unknown in Rich
mond, it would be impossible to explain much
Of the recent language of the papers of that
city. The Ecamiaer, speaking OF the evacu-
alton Of Richmond, says such measure
would involve the loss of all respect and au-
shorty towards the confederate government,
the dsintegratiou of the army, and the abar-
donment of the scheme of the southern coz
federacy; that it would SO narrow the area of
conscription as greatly to reduce the military
strength of the confederacy; and that the
confederate arms would dwindle in numbers
as it should move more and more rapidly
westward, and before reaching the Mississippi
It would degenerate into mere body guard
Of a few officials. 1t goes on to say:
From the hour of giving up the seat OF
government our cause would sink into mere
rebellion in the estimation of foreign powers,
who would cease to accede to as the rights oil
bellgerents, while the enemy would be free to
treat our officers and soldiers as traitors and
criminals, so that every rebel would fight
thenceforward with halter about his neck.
Such declarations as these have meaning,
which they would not have if evacuation were
an unheard of and unmooted thing. But then
when Richmond shall be evacuated or captur-
ed, and the stars and stripes float again in tri-
umph over its capitol, the old refrain will be
repeated, that the confederate cause is stronger
for such a narrowing of its area OF conflict.
and we shall continue to hear this until it dits
away on the frontier of Mexico, or Is strangled
out on the gallows; meantime the spirit of
Liberty and Unity, one and inseparable," will
go @marehing on.p 4a y s.Jz Io41esJ

A Purpose in Life.

A very large proportion OF those whose
? lives may be set down as failures have missed
success only from the want OF a definite aim
They did not lack ability, or industry, or op-
portunity for the achievement of something
honorable and satisfactory, but they had not
sufficient tenaclty of purpose to keep steadily
to one thing, and SO they could never make
their advantages tell. They remind one OF
that famous speech of O'Connell's in the House
of Commons, inwhich he said that the hon.
orable member from So and-so, had, in his re-
marks, evidently aimed at nothing--and hit
1t. 1t Is very questionable advantage to a
young man to be able to do great variety of
things tolerably well. The chances are fully
even In such a case that he will SO fritter away
his energies in trying one pursuit after an
other that he never is able to excel in any. II
you want to be successful in life have def
mite purpose, aud never lose sight of 1t.
Don't try little law, and q little medicine,
and little engineering, aud little specula-
ton, but have some specially, some fixed pur-
suit, and make yourself thorough master of
that. No matter whether it is drawing wood
or chiselling statues, digging clans or making
books, If you wish success in it you must con-
centrate all your forces upon 1t. Every body
can, recall some instance of young man
whose outset ia life was full Of promise which
has never bsen fulfilled. He had such diversi-
ty Of talent, people said, he can be anything
he chooses to be. But he did not choose.
He wanted to be everything, and so he came to
nothing. And SO it alwaysis. Men who have
risen in life, who have achieved greatness
honor, wealth, or power, have invariably done
oy means Of patient, persistent, persevering
enort toward some definite end. Great abili-
ueS are really Of secondary Importance.
Learn 70 Concentrate such ability as you have,
and success is sure to follow.
