Treason and Traifora

These epithets are still, as they have been
for years, in the mouths of Radicals, and
are applied Increasingly to Democrats. Ex-
anime the newspapers aud speeches Of
Abolitionists, and listen to their converse
ton, and you will End that treason consists
in opposing RadicaIism. and that every man
is a traitor who is not an Abolitionist.-
Radicals have no other conception Of trea.
son or traitors. You never hear one Of
them charge the Democracy with unfsith-
fulness to the Constitution. which is 10 fact
the only way in which treason can possibly
be committed. Indeed, they have gone so

The Vicksburg and Atlanta Campaigns.
The following letter from Professor Ewell
appeared in the Richmond Enquirer and
Sentinel:
WILLIAMSBURG. June 25th. 1866.-Edi-
tors Enquirer and Sentinel-Genteme In
your paper of the 22d, the following is pub
lished as an extract from DR., Craven 5
diary:
"Pemberton made splendid defense of
Vicksburg, and might have been relieved.
if the officer commanding the army sent to
relieve him Gen. Johnson had not failed
to obey the positive orders to attack Gen.
Grant, which Mr. Sedden, then Secretary
of War, had sent. If the same officer, who
was upheld in command by the ant-admin-
istration party, had vigorously attacked
Sherman at Atlanta. when directed, the
fortunes of war would have been changed,
and Sherman hurled back to Nashville. over
sterile aud wasted country, his retreat
little less disasterous than Napoeon's from
I Moscow. He did not do so, and was re-
lieved-GeneTal Hood, a true and spirited
/ soldier, taking his place-but the oppOrtu'
nifty was then gone; and TO this delay more
| than to any other cause the Southern people
will attribute their overthrow whenever
! history comes to be truly written"
| In the statement that this extract con-
tains, that Gen. J. E. johnson failed to obey
| positive orders or directions to attack
Gen. Grant at Vicksburg. in 1868, or Gen
Sherman at Atlanta. in 1864, there is mis-
take, caused, no doubt, by Dr.. Craven hav-
ing inexperienced his distinguished pa
tient, with whom, in his misfortunes,
know no one sympalhses more truly than
Gen. Johnson. I venture to make this cor
rection, in justice to a war-worn veteran
who freely shed his blood in defense of the
/ Southern cause, and who is too good a sol
der to wilfuIly disregard an order of his
military superior. The only approach tc
an order to attack Gen. Grant in 1868, waG
given in a telegram from the Secretary o
/ War, aud this was modified and virtually
revoked by a second telegraphic cOmmuni
cation received the same day. The gentle
man who was at the time Secretary of Wa
of the Confederate States bad too mucl
wisdom and practical sense to give 'posi
tive order to Ger. johnson to attach will
his army of about twenty three thousand
men Gen. Grants army, numbering som'
eighty thousand, covered in a position o
great natural strength by the unfordable
/ Big Black river and by formidable lines o
intrenchments defended at all points BY
powerful artillery.
In like manner. no such orders were Civ.
en- during the Atlanta campaign, and thr
disasters that befell the Army of Tennessee,
after Gen. johnson was relieved, clearly
demonstrated that they ought not to have
been given. Ny position on Gen Johnson
staff, and my relations to him, caused al
his correspondence with the authorities il
Richmond, by mail, by telegraph or b.
messengers, from Janury, 1858. to June
1864, at which time be was relieved, t
pass through my hands. Any assertion
have herein made I am fully prepared tC
prove. Very respectfully.

con- of the broker who buys it, Of the dry
goods merchant who brings It back. and
then he sells his manpfaetured article for

this IS effected By small investment Of a

loom that can be managed by a girl or boy.

We know how slow planters are to adopt
improvements, but the exceeding simplici-

seems to us, would commend it to every
man. AS people, we are governed by
our political and commercial enemies. To
enrich themselves they have destroyed our
labor system and taxed our products. Shall
we not render ourselves. at least peeuniari-

this is to become the manufacturers of our

Our County Expenses

Hss Mr.. Editor :--Fhe remarks IN your rlast
number, answered question, that was about
to propose, concerning the statement of the
Clerk of the Board of Supervisors ss to the
expenses OF the county. ss a ns Is sa h-ss ia ss
The paricu airs were all well enough, until
we come to the comfortable item Of $4,000 for
salaries The ''wood. and the repairs" and
insurance are definitely stated, bntg one-hat
of the whole expenses are l4mped. It would
have been easier for the -clerK 10 have Jumped
the Whole, and we should perhaps have trusted
to the discretion of our economical 9 Jerk. ~
But srhgt this salary sum nat still farther
item zed, your last plumber fully explains.
1t is not at all surprising that the clerk, 10
receipt of larger sum than has ever been paid
forsuch services should seek TO be-muddle the
ann unit in the grand total. $3.50 year Tor the
clerk of 9 small county like ours is out of all
character. SD.
There are plenty of competent. men who
would be glad to perform the duties of that of
flee for half the amount. All the acork could be
performed in two or three months, and either of
the officers who are Obliged to have an office
open, would undoubtedly be glad to attend to
the redemption of taxes for $50 a year. The
clerk perhaps in taking all he can get. is doing
as others would do, but it was supposed the
County Board would exercise some little sense
in the matter.
