Our forces, under Jackson, occupy Zoilicoffer, which is only ten miles this tide of Johnson's so a collision may be looked for at any time.- Richmond Enquirer 1 Polities In South Carolina. It appears that the next elections in this State ate to turn mainly upon the isiue of sustaining this Cou lederaie Government, or waging war upon it. Mr. Lewis M. Ayer has addressed the pcop!e of tbe 3J Coru ressional District, distinctly accepting this issue. The close of his addnss is as follows : Id it the .testre of the people of this Congr saional Ois rict to Wage war Fga.irs? Prtsicent Davis at all imt?, ia and out cf season, at d to create, stimulate acd urge on a factious ar d n.tist mischievous opposition to jis AdniiiiisUation ? If such be the casf I em, most truly, not tie man for yonr purpose. But I cannot believe that ary considerable cumber of our people are for any -uc i false acd fatal policy. If, however, suco s the desire and purp?sj of th .se who oppose nie, let the issue be but fairly made, and I will as fairly aieei it. I by no means' maki? President Davis my idol, and nave, thns far, a3 the records will show, advocated or opposed fcia favorite measures according to my own oest judgment, and shall continue-to do so if retarnfd ro Congress. But we must r'flct that any man, how ever great, placed in euch a position as that which Mr. Davis now occupies, in a crisis like the present, needs all the support and encouragement that can possibly be imparted to him from auy quarter. And who can es timate the moral power with which a gallant:, great hearted and magnauimous people may inspire their lea der, by giv.ng to feel that he firmly rests upon their af 'ections, their faith and unswerving cons'ancy ! It is uow for you, fellow-citizens, to decide tor yourselves the course of poicy you would have pursued ia this mat ter. I am, respectfully, your fellow-citizen, Lewis M. Atsr. Oa the oiler hand, the Charleston Mercury, repre ftntirg or ieadirg the anti-Government party, springs i.o mi et the isauo, and does not scrapie to commence its leading article of Saturday last with these words : " Although careful ;y covered over tvith tbe mantle of etcrtcy by Congress, enough has been disclosed by tern rea lties to show the total incompetency of Pres .deut Davis to govern the affairs of the Confederacy. fie has lost the confidence of both the army and the people." We beg leave o doubt these assertions of the "Mer cury," at l-;ast insofar as we have an opportunity to judge cf tbe peopie ot Virgiota, and the army geeral y. All of us ate obliged to make allowance for errors of jndgm- nt, and tvtn now and then for bud appoint ments. It a great and a complicated task which the Confederacy has imposed upon its Government acd President Few ineu in this world have ever had east noon them so olcous a duty and responsibility aa Mr. Davis has now resting upon Lim ; and ft is too much to txpect that iu thia mighty movement all things should be guided precisely aright. Surely it is enough tt we are sitisti d that tbe President ia faithfully labor mg to aciii ve his noble task with his b st judgment and with every faculty end talent that God has given bira We do not nip.ke an idol of the President, any more than Mr. Ayer. lie has nii.tle some appointments which we flatter ourselves wo could fill with better men; aud he has a oreadful Secretary of State. Bat on the wtiole, one would feel some d fliculty in replacing the President with advantage; and we apprehend that the array, and also tbe people, (that is, the people cf Vir ginia,) desire to confer upon him that moral power which, as Mr. Ayer rightly says, Le would derive by bing made to" feel that he firnvy re3ts upon their aflec nons their faith and unwavering constancy." We venture to suggest to the people of South Caro 'ina to consider the matter veiy maturely before they send a delegation lo Cccgiess committed to the policy of general suspicion and opposition- At the same time, we must bgree with the? "Mercury" iu deprecating that ' mantle cf seercsy" in Congress.

'Richmond Er.quiter. Tiie (Jlilo Pti.tt. mlaiy The Outrage to which Gn. Korgrtii has bet n Subjcctrit. Because ol ihe imprisonment of Gen. Morgan iu thi3 latter day Bastile, and the interest thus created ia all that appertains to the f ri oo, the Atlanta Confederacy has deemed it cf sufficient importance to describe the institution in detail. That paper says : TLe prison is situated in the northwestern suburb of Columbus, Ohio. Its site is on a low, level eurface uear the Scioto River. The building is cf hard blue or granite limestone ; the front, three stories high, and about four hundred feet long. Ihe entrance from the street is thr&ugh a handsome iron gateway, at which one cr twp sentinels are constantly cn post. A beauti ful yard filled with shrubbery and flower plats, occupies he space between the outstda wall and tbe building. The entrance to the house is through a large and plain doorway into a small hall, on ihe left of which ia the office where the books are kept, business transacted and passes sold (25 cents per ticket ) The next room to the left is the sitting room for ladies especially, but u?ed by all visiters. When a sufficient number of per sons accumulate, the guide carries them through the hall, at the end ci" which is a triple barrel, bolted and locked door of amall bize. Immediately the door closes behind you the gloominess of the establishment becomes apparent. Every article of furniture is of iron and hard, rt uh wooei ana stone. 1 be prisoner is carried to the barber shop, where his head is shaved on one s'de, and his whiskers shaved close. lie is then strip ped nakd and washed, daring which time his clothes are starched and all valuables ttrken away, an invoice of which ia m de in a book. These articles are placed it the ( ffi je safe and returned to him when his term ot imprisonment expires. His clothes are packed, labelled and placed in charge of the proper officer. After bath ing, the prisoner is habited in prison attire, which con sists of coarse muslin shirt and drawers, cotton socks iu summer acd woollVn in winter, and coarse prison shoes. The pantaloons and round jacket are striped half way round tbe suit, the other side remaining a plaiu dark brown. The rules ot the establishment are then read to tiie prisoners, and they are especially re minded on no pretence whatever are they allowed to speak to each other or to visitors, the severest corporeal punishment being the penalty. Tni3 silent system, as it is called, almost destroys the intellect of a ten years prisoner. The victim ia uow given the number of his cell. His trade is noted on the book, and he is taken immediately to the shop, where his handicraft is applied. If, how ever, tbe prisoner has no trade, he is set to work as an apprentice to learn one, or el3e made to cut or saw stone, or perhaps he is worked cn the State buildings as a laborer, or is hired to contractors to work the pub lic highways and other labor under the gross and bru tal require menls of armed overseers. Ihe prison yard is surrounded with a wail Irom weive to eighteen feethUb.oa which sentinels are post ed at short intervals, so that escape seems impossible. A sewer runs through the middle of the enclosure, which drains the cesspools and fifth of the prison ; its debruch- ure under tbe wall is strongly ironed, and arranged to prevent escape by that outlet. The prison yard is very large aDd commodious, and the various buildings at tached to the prison are scattered through it. Attach ed to the main building, and running back from its centre, there is a very large three story building with various cfP:ies in it, the kitchens being in its.rear, where a steam engine dots the work of cooking, boiling water, chairing, etc. Immense cauldrons are placed over a range ot furnaces, and in a number ot them the laundry washing is done in the others the soups, meats and general cooking is done. The lower floor is used as a dining room, each man having a fixed place at table. On the second fljor is a hospital ward, with drug dis pensary on one side, at the Dorth end, and museum on the other. The furniture of the hospitals is of iron. Tbe bed3 have bard mattresses, coarse muslin cloths for sheets, etc. Tbe most fastidious cleanliness pervades every part of this department. One of the first pbysi- lans iu the city is in regular attendance, and the drunrsisr, curses and cttendents are au fait in their business. To the rear of this building are the workshops and workyard. In- the latter the heavy work in wood aDd stone ia performed. In the western portion of the yard are situated, first, a large engine and fixtures for a ma china shop, foundry, Ate, then a large carpenter shop, in which all kinds ot furniture end wood work are made. .Next i3 a shoe manufactory, in which substantial work is mads, though mostly ot a rough coarse quality. Ihe next shop is a long building, on each side of which are long tables, cn which a great many tailors sit crook legged and stitch, stitch away, their silent, solitary term. Tbe cells are in the main bul'dtng, and accommodate nearly eight hundred prisoners. These cells are nine feet long, six feet w de aDd twelve feet high. The door is of bar iron, latticed so that the keeper can see clear ly into the interior of the cell. A cess pool box ia placed m tne lar corner, over n a Dasia is nang, ana a wa ter cock iu the same corner, supplies it with hydrant water. A coarse towel hangs convenient. The bed steads ia of iron, and narrow, kept neatly covered with dean bidding. The beds are jointed, at tbe head and turned up agamat the wall during toe day, and let down at eight. The discipline ia moat rigoroaa, and enforced severely. Each prisoner ia labelled with his number which is the same number ot his cell and place at table and he 13 never known by any other name during hia imprison ment. On the day of hia discharge he heara hia name lor the first time, perhaps, during years, and is permit ted to return thanks for hia kind treatment in utter ance j which have been denied him daring the years of nis ccufinement. Ai daylight tbe bell signals turn out : the prisoner is permitted a shoit period to dres3 and arrange his room At another aignal his number is called, the door is unlocked, acd he steps into line. By military drill he s carried to his proper place. Breakfast signal sounds, and Le falls in line ; is marched to the dining room ; files cfl to his proper number ; ia haltt-d when opposite; mother eigna!, and he takes his seat. Tbe chaplain pronounces grace, and the men begin thetr repast. Af ter the specified time ia passed, a signal ia sounded ach number takes hia place io file, and marchea to the door. Here they are formed in squada and marched to heir respective place8 of work. Dinner and supper pass in the same manner ; then dress pareda ; the roll is called, and, separating into squads, they are carried at sunset to their respective cells ; the doors are locked and bolted, and the prisoner ia left to hia musings or to sleep. If a prisoner dies during his term of confinement, and no relative or reprtsentative calls for his body, it is wiven to tbe medical college for dissection. In summer vime, however, when there, is no demand for subjctB, they are buried in the convicts corner, ilia etlects are Kept a certain time, when, if not called for by the pro per representative, they are sold by the State, and tf e oroceeda turned into its exchequer. Uiuady, about three fourths of the convicts are men of most desperate character, who have been sent to the penitentiary for gross crimes, and serve long terms of imprisonment. Their very appearance is d sguaticg in the extreme to a man who has the sensitiveness of a gentleman. Hence, we can easily appreciate the feel incs of John Morsran when he looks over that crew amongst whom he is cast and punished as one of equal criminality. TJfiust Rntlfr Lai dwindled into insignificance. It has been left for the insane Burnside, the rbynrng Gen eral, and Jack Ketch, of America, to consummate the most gross indignity ot the age, to revive the barba risms of the inquisitorial period, when dungeons and the ingenious tortures of revengeful spirits drew from tbe most terrible imaginings ot fcell their methods of punishment. ' Without the courage or spirit ot a sold ier, he knows no chivalry. With the spirit of an as sasin and a coward, he invents for one of our best sold iers a punishment which will be a biasing and by-word aeainst the nationality of the United States whilst hia tor? lasts. See tbe difference. Let us draw a parallel. Colonel Streisht makes a raid, and is taken prisoner, lie is tJ a, treated courteously, and rather receives an ovation as he proceeds on bis way to Richmond. In Augusta, an aristocratic laoy (?) whose brother had been killed by Yankees, not three months before, visited the prisoners, took one of them in her own luxarious carnage to her home and feted him, one of tbe most villainous cut throat dogs ot S freight's thievts. She loaded him with flowers and boqaete, then carried him to the train, and kissing her hand to him wafted him adieu. Surely no abandoned woman could more tffectual!y have dishon ored herself. Aud have the people branded with the infamy they deserve the parties who were guilty ot euch practices? We hope so. Streight'a crew ot miscre ants were sent to Richmoud and furnished quarters in tbe usual prison lor officers, and treated as prisoners of war. General Morgan re-ceived no caresses, no kindness ; bis passage after being a prisoner was not a triumphant pageant ; bis pathway was not strewn with flowers; no welcome came from Northern women : but at la3t the prison doors of tbe Ohio State 1 enitentiary close on our soldiers. He is treated as a convict, and tbe press of the North lau?h over tee act with fiendish glee. Whose htad will be shaved in retaliation ? Who will be incarcerated in one of our penitentiaries aud kept at bard labor and unuer prison aiscipi'ne until our chief is liberated ? Has our President not yet given up the hope ot humiliating the i orthern barbanacs. Per haps we had better suffer yet awhile that the vengeance may be the more terrible when the day ot doom comes. But let me tell you, my fellow-soldiers, that it is in our sood right arms the power of retaliation lies- Revenge toe wrong Ol 'jfeneral Morgan, fetfave ankee heaas, but see to it that they are Bhaved close of! under the ears. Meantime, we await 'impatiently tbe doom of Streight, or pome other victim to balance th03e out rages ou Morun and bis men. Thlrty-I'lrat Regiment W. C. Troopa. Camp 3Ut Regiment N. C. T., ?

The Committee reported the following : Whereas, There ia a oertain faction of croakers and ex empts iu ur beloved State, who have assembled at diffe rent places, expressing sentiments in favor of peace upon some terms not mentioned ; these men, fearing that the enemy, who have of late made several destructive raid into the interior of our State, might eventually reach their homes and depiive them of their puny wealth, to save which tbey would tamely submit to the hirelings of des potism : Therefore, we, true and loyal sons of IN orth Caro lina, assembled on tbe plains of South Carolina lor her de fence against om common foe, do resolve that we denounce these traitors at home aa unfit to be called sons of North Carolina ; that they would cast a stain upon the fair es cutcheon of oar Btate, which has been rendered glorious by the blood cf hei thousands of dead and wou'.ded, on more than a hundred battle fields ; that we are wil mg that our lives should be sacrificed a the altar of our country ; but we spurn asd deBpiae those who remaia securely at home, ai d cou i aa alliance with tha Northern Btates. Resolved, That the statement of W. W. Holden, in the Standard of the 2d inst., upon he authority of his Chailes ton correspondent, "that the Tnirty-fi st KetrimenG North Carolina Troopa almost unanimously eudo e the course f ihe standard, basely misrepresents the Kegiment. Resolved, That we can aee no feasible plan presented by w. w. Ut'iaen ia ine ttaieign otanaara. or nis supporters, for binging about au honorable peace ; and, there! ore, we think his course pr judicial to the cause, ia dividing ihe people that should be uuitedA in producing dissatisfaction m tue army, and in encouraging the enemy in his efiorts for our sabiugation. Resolved. hat we have fall confidence ia oar Chief Mag istrate, Jefferson Davis, and under such men aa Generals Beauregard, Johnston, Hib, Bragg and others, we will nev er tamely submit to the advauce of tho merciless- foe, but march forward tc victory or aeatn. Resolved, That we cheertu ly endorse the acta and ad ministration ol Z sbuion B.

Resoloed, That while we are absent from our native 8tate, and while beating back the myrmidons of Lincoln from the gates of Charleston, we are lighting in a common cause, and should stand shoulder to" shoulder ia this great struggle. Resolved, That we would mirgle our bones with those who now qaieily " sleep the sleep that knows no waking," rather than tamely submit to a re-unim with tho Worth. an i that the thought ia one to be spurned by every Confed erate soldier. Resolved, That we will only sheath our sword from war when we have gained our indepead nee, and stand free and untraameiled amonz the recogn.zsd nations of the world.

The handsome family residences of Hen ry Riddick and the Rev. Wm. B. VYellona, suffered more than at any time before. The residence of the later gen tleman waa occupied by them, and the fencing around the yard and flower garden, which bad baen previousfy miraculously preserved, waa destroyed, aid the housea much abased. Joseph Little, Thomas Locksey, and Jaa. Harrison, enrolling officers for Nansemood ccunty were captured. These soldiers were all from the Six-eenth Virginia Regiment.

FBOM THE NORTH CORSE8PONDENCE BETWEEN FERNANDO WOOD AND LINCOLN DIFFICULTY WITH THE JAPANESE EU30PEAN NEWS. Richmond, Sept. 11th, 1883. The flag of truce boat arrived at City Point last night.- She brought no returned prisoners. N ew York papers, of the 9th icst , have been received. The correspondence between Lincoln and Fernando Wood, on the peace question in December last, Is published. Wood says that he waa advised that the Southern States would send representatives to the next Congress, provided a full and general imne;ty was granted to permit them to do bo, and urges a cessation of hostilities. Lincola replies that if the people of tbe Southern States would cease re sistarce, and re-inaugurate and maintain tho national au thority within the limits of anch Btates, the war would cease on the part of th? United States ; and if, witLia a reasonable time, an amnesty were necessary to such an end, it would not ba witheld. Tne ship Pembroke hav'rg been fired upon by ths Japa nese forts, tha gunboat Wyoming proceeded to the scenes of outrage, silenced the fortB and destroyed two war steam ers beloi gicg to the Japecese. Western telegrams report the Confederate army iiciler Steele Cooper aa having retreated to PerryviUe, at which point the commissary depot was destroyed. Lincoln says that he will not make the release of an offi cer of the negro regiments an indispensable condition to the renewal of exchanges. The Herald copies an article fro or the Times favorable to the nomination of Lincoln for a secoLd term, aud says that it was evidently written by Seward. The Times on the iol lowing dav was silent on the subject. Nothing important from Tennessee except reports that a large number ot deserters are coming withia the Federal lines. European advices state that the ship Anglo Saxon was bnrnt by the Florida on tha 21st ult., thirty miles from Kin oto, Ireland. She had a cargo of ccals. It ia reported in Liverpool that the Alabama had gone in to Cherbourg for repairs. The Mexican questi an waa to ba debated before a. Con gress of Boverign Princes at Frankfort.

Mr. John Cole, son of Judge Cole, of fh'a city, ba? return., d from Yicksburg. One of the heroic garriscu of that place, he was detained by a wound received in delense of the city, but took tbe earliest moment, at great risk ol hia life, to leave the Federal lines. vVe understand he says that a very short experience of Fed eral domination will work a complete cure of the most obstinate fit ot despondency the eevereBt attack of recoBStruction or giving up. It is like a fly blister, and will sting anybody into aa unconquerable resolu tion never to give up the struggle while life or hop? re mains. Very few in Vicksburg have taken the oatb. and such is the tyranny of the Federals that the weak kneed who thought of taking it, were soon cared of the purpose. The Blory of good behavior of the Fed eral troopa when they entered Vicksburg ia a mere ct. nard. lis saw them coming in hooting and jeiiin like demons the soldiers armed with beetles and unuk. with which they burst in the doors of the chops and housea, aDd gutted and sacked the hou3R in a twinL lingrin the presence of their officers. The daily occu pation of tbe soldiers, since that time, has beeu a con stant search of plunder from bouse to house, end th shipment of the spoils io their friends at home. Every foot of land about the town hes been pieiced with ramroda to discover bidden treasures, and the graves bad been opened for silver coffin plates aid jew elry. The condition of the poor people subjected to such indignities, and at the eame time eubsiaticg upon the raliona doled out to them by the soldiery, can be more readily imagined than describe When a Cod federate sees these tbinga they are better than a victory in stirring up hia resolution to fight to tbe last, lie reports great mortality amoDg the vandala, but tbe dead are all buried at night and in secrecy.
