RtPORTf or A Dbsibk »or PiAOii.—We copy from
the Charleston Courier a remarkable extract from a let
ter affirming that there is now a Rtrong feeling at the
North in favor of peace; that they oonfe.ss that the ob
ject of the war is unattainable; that secret societies had
been organized to resist the draft; that the government
was afraid to force that obnoxious measure; and that
without it hardly 200,(KX) of the tKKt.tHH* men called for
could be obtained.
These are most important statements, if rtlialle, and
as to that we can only say, whilst otir impressions ar«
decidedly adverse to reliance upon (hem, (hat (he le((er
is given with apparent confidence by that most respect
able paper the Courier, In a paragraph from a New Vork
papt'r it will be neen (hat the draft hus l-een forced in
t^onnecticiit, and that disturbances were caused thereby.
This fact is somewhat confirmatory and somewhat con
tradictory of Ihe letter writer’s views—-confirmatory so
far ati it shows that there was danger of popular out
breaks .agaifcst the draft; contr.adiclory. as it shows that
the government was not afraid to enforce it.
We add to the Courier’s article and letter, an exiract
from the letter of ihe army correspondent of the Savan
nah Uejuiblican, P W'. .\lexander. The letter i.'( of an
old date (the '.•ih) but only reached Savannah on Ihe
J4th. liu statement of an informal suggestion towards
I'eace, and of (len. Lee's action upon it, has nowhere
else been made, so far as wo know, nor contradicted
On the whole, while we copy (he articles as of the
current news of the day, we caution our readers again.st
putting confidence in them, until further alvised.
Wii.^T SoiiTiiKRN Pkoplk MAY E.xPKCT,—A friend has
handed to us n copy of the “Continental Monthly Maga
zine,” for last month, published in New York we be
lieve, and picked up in one of Ihe enemy's camps by an
ofticer in our aimy that whipped them out of the camp
It has various articles on the war, all bitter enough
against the South, hut one in particular, under the cap
tion, “Rewarding the .Xrmy," showing what the South
might expect if i* should ever prove so foolish anti so
craven as to allow (he North to conquer us—a thing by
the way that we rei'ard as utterly out of the question.
.And because we desire every Southern man to regard it
in the same light, do we call attention to this article. It
is not a mere ephemeral newspaper paragraph, but a de
liberate essay, tinding a conspicuous place in one of the
higher order of li(erary periodicals of (he North,
The whole aim and tendency of the article is to im
press it on Ihe j>eople that the South is to be divided up
into small farms, and to impress it upon the soldiers
that those farms are to be parceled out among them, as
rewards for their services. Of course a great induce
ment is thus held out to those in the army to fight des
perately, and to those not already in, to enlist, and
•hare in the plunder of that South which is supposel to
be El l>orado. There has long been an imiaense ‘*vote-
your«eIf-a-farm” party at the North, but at present the
idea is, instead of taking a farm among the wild lands
of the West, to take one at the South, with lands cleared
and houses built, already to their hands. It is even in
timated that though Southrons are to l>e deprived of
their slaves, these Northern nettlera will con.Jfscen.l to
"employ” them—such is the phrase used in the follow
ing extract; —
"Jlie army of the I lifted States at the present d.iy
contains within itself the best part of such free labor
and intellect as is neeiied to r^/vrm the Smtffi. * * *
When the war shall be over, it In to the army that we
should laok to revive the wasted South, to farm its ex
hausted plantations and employ its blacks,"
Rut the North ban a stronger motive than even hate
of the Southerners for this proposition to locate its army
upon Southern farms, Jt ts afratd i'.» own ijr*’iv
tu-'ued lot tr lUrif without employment. See the
f.illowing extracts:
"It is very doubtful if those who venture to oppose
the settlemant of our sol«iiers in the South, will not stir
up such a storm of trouble as this country never saw
.An army of half a million after a ye.ar or two years of
\>attle-life, will not calmly return to its wonted avoi':i
lions, notwithstanding all ibat has been said to that
effect. .A warrant for W’estern lands, which will po-«i-
bly Jiring .i hundreil dfdlars. will seem but a small iii-ii-
ter to men who have seen unlimited paths to competence
in th« rich fields of the South, They will not i-.uiij^re-
hend why the enemy should be allowed to retain his
possessions while they themselves have been thrown
out ef employment, ■’
.\gain; ‘‘To extend these doctrines [free labor, &c,
J over the whole continent is a noble inission. and
one not to be balked ir hindered by foolish scruf.les or
weak pity for a pitiless foe. ’
.\giiiii: "It is more to our interest lo reward the ar
my with Southern land-grants than it is even for theirs
to accept them.”
The writer proposes to begin by settling Texas fir.'it.
sj as to ^et an ample supply of cotton- and by guvern-
ing all the other Southern ports as New tirleaus is now
povtTiied “Hut to do all this,” saj-s he, "there must be
tiu nmchiuQ. This is not the time to praie of liie 'un
represented rights’ of traitors, or wince at the jirosjiect
of reducing to poverty Ihe men who have labored for
jears to reduce us to utter ruin!”
Perhaps it scarcely needed this warning, but we think
it cannot be too often or too earnestly impressed upon
Southern people, that they have nothing but evil, no
thing but wrong, and robbery, and oppression and in
sult, to expect from the North, and that the only way
to avoid all these is, with the blessing of 'iod, to drive
theni away, or if they will not go, to give them their
coveted farms in spaces of earth sit feet by two,
' 'i.i> .\b*'s Gift.—We kave sometimes hearil of dying
iiirn who had not a dime in the world leaving immense
estates by will to their friends .A like conceit seems to
possess the yankee President. He has issued a procla
mation pretending to emancipate (he slaves of “rebela."
He ha--' just as much right to do this as the Lmperor of
Russia or the Quecfi of Hngland ha«, and that is none
at all. Kven if the slave States were under the govern-
nirnt of the United Stales, the Constitutiou which he
has sworn faithfully lo administer gives him no power
to do so wicked an act. Hut he has no right to do even
a constitutional act in the Confederacy. It owes him
no allegiance, and he knows will pay no respect to his
proclamation. It is merely issued in the vain hope that
it may do some mischief. Hut, like all his acts, it is a
mistake, calculuteil only to defeat his object; for it will
strengthen the unity of the South and embitter its hos
tility to the whole vile yankee nation, which thus nhows
iis willingness to do an act injurious to itself and to the
worl.l, in the hope that it may be most injurious to us.
Heaven preuerve us from any future connection, so
cial, political or commercial, with bo malignant a jieople.
A Lkttek i'ho.m Sbw.ari>.—The Northern p.apers copy
from the (»Ia«igow Mail (Scotland) a letter from W'm. H,
Seward to the I’aisley Parliamentary Reform Associa
tion, dated Aug, 14th, in whioh that functionary, with
the concurrence of the President and tlie Cabinet, makes
the following outrageously false assertion:
•‘Nor is (he South, as you sewn to imagine, altogether
insensible or unfaithful. Time, which; always subdues
passitjns otherwiuo uncontrollabl-c, is gradually freeing
that region from the terrors of the insurrection, and
preparing the way for its return to its constitutional
duties, and for the rastoraiion of national unity and
peace.”
Seward knows, as everybody kn.jws in America, that
this is false, and the South has byihe events of the war
been more and more embittered luid more and more de
termined never again to unite with the North. Doubt
less he hoped to deceive these people of Scotland ia re
gard (o the state of feeling here; but when he had occa
sion to speak of (be feeling in. Europe he knew there
was no use to attempt deception, and so he says truly;
“It has been a disappointment to leam that our strug
gle is at best a matter of indifference to the Govern
ments of Europe, whilst it is generally represented to
uB that (he na(ioii8 of that continent sympathize, not
with us but wi(h the insurgents, and detgire nothing less
than our National ruin.”

PAiiOLi£i> \ ANKKES, — \ ref)ort was given in the Rich
mond papers of the lir)th that Jackson had captureti at
Shephardstown olH* of theyankees that he had captured
an.l paroled only a week before at Harper’s Ferry, and
thai tlvey were on the way to Richmond, W’e are glad
to slate that subsequent papers do not confirm the story;
for if such men ha'l been re-capiured they would neces
sarily be execuieil, for it would be such a breach of
faith as the laws of civilized war would require to be
punished with death. The story probably grew out «f
what later accounts state to be a fact, that Jackson cap
tured u few such persons and hanged them up on the
same day,
-As for paroled prisoners, wo presume that not one in
a thousand would violate his parole, for apart Irom the
danger of capture, recognition and execution, we think
there are biil few of them who would not prefer to go
home, receive their pay, (for which alone most of them
enlisted,) and avoid the di.«iasier and disgrace of any
more such battles asthey have ha.lwitli the Confederates.
Rkti rneu.—The Standard announces the arrival in
Raleigh of a number of ihe otlicers exchanged at Vicks
burg, .VuKUig them we are glad to bear fs our old friend
Col. (Mark M .Avery, the gallant Colonel of (he :53d N.
C Troops. Col .Avery hax I'een in a yankee prison since
tha battle of Newbern, where his good conduct won high
commendation. He was captured, we believe, in a gene
rous endeavor to protect or bring from the battle field
the boily of a wounded friend.
The Colonel’s regiment is now in North Eastern \'ir-
ginia or Maryland, and we suppose he will soon be at
its head.

mini'-traiion, though not at least not openly—In oj po
sition to the war upon the South. .At the latest daten
from New Vork the Republicans hail not nominated
their candidate But the Herald says,—
“It is understood (hat the conservative element in Ihe
parly-- including Mr. Seward and Thurlow Weed - has
i>een defeated and crushed, and that the raiiicals will
rule the roost.” Their journals in this city are coming
out in very remarkable articles, shaping Ihe issue,
and laboring hanl to bring the whole j>ar(y over to their
sanguinary and revolutionary views. The Tribune yes
terday, for example, presents (he bloody programme of
extermination of the while race of the South, as did
Thaddeus Stevens, a short time ago, in the House of
Representatives. The organ of Ihe Jacobins scoffs at
"humanity” as sickly senlimentality, and denounces
every attempt to restore peace on the basis of the Con
stitutiou, To do baitle for that instead of extetniiiia-
ting slavery and slaveholders, wouM be a game not
worth the camile.”
The Herald lakes it for granted that Fremont will be
the Rejtublican candidate, and their platform indiscri
minate slaughter of the Southern people.

it in a natural way. As an old gentleman once said of
his town where it was proposed to establish a (juarantini*

We can give them as many diseases a.s they send,”
“Mexicuu account of the Cuptnre of Monterey.—Gen,
Ampudia’s oflicinl account of the battle is received ia
this country. He speaks of “a brilliant defence, in
which the enemy was repulsed with the loss of 1500
men from various posts,” To save his men, and the
city, from further lows, and because of the scarcity of
ammunition and provisions, &c. he consented to the
capitulation,
“To show the utter falsity of Ampudia’s reasons, a.
highly distinguished otlicer of our army, writing in the
Picayune, says,—
“Touching the scarcity of araniiinition and provisions,
w^ich produced such “great suHering,” it is only ne
cessary to remark, that more ammunition was captured
and surrendered than has been sent from the United
States f*r the use of the Army of occupation since the
war began, and that the provisions found in the city*
have mainly subsisted the citizens and entire American
forces ever since the capitulation, now more than two
weeks, to say nothing of the amount permitted to b»
ctMTied off by the Mexican Army.”
PruoneTB.—121 yankees captured in Eastern N. C., ar
