a Novel and Startling Enterprise

It.is reported that corps of Southern
men, picked from the most gallant OF the
Southern army, and fortified by their war
and ante.war regulations, have been Or
ganized for the purpose Of making true
, exposition of the conduct OF the officers
ies the Southern army during the war, of
the strength of the Southern army for
each quarter ). of the absentee system,
with exposures Of favoritism of very
degrading nature to- certain Generals, of
the number and some of the names Of the
officers who held prominent bomb-proof
positions, both in the field and at other
places; of the strength of different rcgi-
ments, not much hurt by war, but wofully
hurt by absenteeism from the first year to
the last month Of the war; of tae pres
entSstrength of the braggarts of certain
Southern localities, in some instances
numbering FIVE hundred to a regiment,
which in the war never averaged three
hundred, and ut the close, not one hum
dred, and sometimes not fifty, when COM
paratively few were either killed or
wounded, owing to absenteeism. The
principal part of the volume will be devo-
ted to an exposition Of the frauds in the
sQuartermasters' and Commissary Depart
ments, throughout the army, as far as can
be ascertained, with the names OF default
ing and otherwise cheating officials. with
out special reference to already known
records, the evidence in all cases not es-
tablished by Confederate courts martial
being given in full, in the form of state
ments of detectives, secret police, and
other officers employed by, the, govern
iment, but whose reports have never been
eren intimated to the parties interested.
In this enterprise several generals have
enlisted, feeling tho necessity of showing
up.a great deal of the pretentious vanity
now prevailing among young men, sup
posed to have been gallant Confede-
rates" and who impose upon even their
most intimate acquaintanees, their faith
ers, mothers. and friends with great
many stories Of their army loyalty and
general gallantry, and who are believed
to be shining lights OF Southern chivalry.

rebels, but they arc going into the busi-
ness in a most unmerciful manner, and all
dasky officers, who Dragged more than
fought, who won popularity by diploma
cy, and laurels by accident, and especially
those who won fortunes by stealing, say
nothing of the upstarts who neither re-
ceived nor exposed themselves to wounds,
but who still claim the honor of having
been in the Southern army, "In the thick
est Of the war;" must look out tor q
scorching. This will be the first reliable
eahistory of the war;" perhaps, from o
Southern stand point,
