A Patriotic speech. --Hon. B. H. Hill, of Georgia, made a speech at Macon last week, from which we take the following extract, as full of good sense as it is of patriotism: And we can crush this enemy. I feel that they are as much our prisoners now as the Yankees at Andersonville. How can that be done? Not by discouraging those willing to fight; not by speculating and extortionist. Not by failing earnestly to support the organized power, but only by the reverse of all those propositions. Is it possible we cannot crush Sherman? He has three hundred miles of railroad to keep up, which must and can be destroyed. He must not himself escape. We have the means to do this. We must return the absentees. They are everywhere. They eat at your tables; you meet them in your parlors; you meet them on the streets; you all know who they are.--Cease complaining of the gallant soldiers in the field and urge forward the absentees.

Runaway. --Ran away from the subscriber on the 24th instant, at Manchester, boy Henry; about sixteen years of age; five feet high; nearly black; slender; long face and thick lips; on right or left side a wen about the size of a walnut; has eruption on his skin, resembling mosquito bites. When the said boy left he had on a soldier's jacket and a common cotton shirt, rather light-colored pants, old hat and shoes; all of which clothes were very dirty. I will give one hundred Dollars in the present Confederate currency for the apprehension and delivery of said Boy to Messrs. Lee & Bowman, Richmond, or in any jail so I can get him. Said boy was sold by Messrs. Hill, Dickinson & Co. for James Gray's sons. He is supposed to be lurking about Richmond, or at Mr. Mallory's, on the Mountain road, ten miles above the city, where his mother lives, or in Manchester, where he has a sister living with Mr. Rowlett Winfree.
