Horace Greeley, The American Conflict: A History of the Great Rebellion in the United States of America, 1860-65: its Causes, Incidents, and Results: Intended to exhibit especially its moral and political phases with the drift and progress of American opinion respecting human slavery from 1776 to the close of the War for the Union.

while it had probably less than a thousand subscribers, and while its editor and his partner were still working all day as journeymen printers, sleeping, after some hours' editorial labor, at night on the floor of their little sky-parlor office, and dreaming rather of how or where to get money or credit for the paper required for next week's issue than of troubling the repose of States, they were flattered by an act of the Legislature of Georgia, unanimously passed, and duly approved by Governor Lumpkin, offering the liberal reward of $5,000 to whomsoever should arrest, bring to trial, and prosecute to conviction, either of them under the laws of that State--the arrest being the only difficult matter. Harrison Gray Otis, the wealthy and aristocratic Mayor of Boston, being required by a Southern magistrate to suppress The Liberator--which was probably the first he had heard of it — in due season reported that his officers had ferreted out the paper and its editor, whose office was an

Brown, of the First North Carolina regiment, and Captains Beck and Lumpkin, of the Forty-fourth Georgia, rallied the fragments of their commands, and are handsomely spoken of by Brigadier-General Ripley. The Third North Carolina regimen his regiment, with other officers, after all the field officers had been lost, and led the regiment until relieved by Lieutenant-Colonel Bynum. Captains Beck and Lumpkin, of the Forty-fourth Georgia, marched with the brigade, with the fragment of the regiment, on the twenty-seventh, and served through the subsequent actions.

ong numbers and well intrenched. On Wednesday, the sixth, at daylight, skirmishers were again ordered to feel the enemy. They moved to the front, and found he had evacuated his position and withdrawn his forces across the river. About two o'clock P. M., we were ordered to march back to our old encampment. In closing this report, I cannot speak in terms too high of Colonel Cook and Lieutenant Winn, of the Fourth Georgia; Colonel Willis and Major Hardeman, of the Twelfth Georgia; Lieutenant-Colonel Lumpkin, Forty-fourth Georgia; Colonel Mercer and Major Glover, Twenty-first Georgia. To their promptness and gallantry, and the able manner in which they were sustained by the officers and men of their commands, all of whom did their whole duty, I acknowledge my indebtedness. Attention is respectfully called to their reports, which you will find enclosed. To my staff, Captain Snead, assistant adjutant-general; Lieutenant Hawkins, aid-de-camp; Lieutenant Jones brigade-inspector; Sergean

n one hundred yards of the enemy's line. After consulting with Generals Ramseur and Iverson, the line was ordered to fall back to a dirt road, some three hundred yards to the rear. We remained in this position until 1.30 o'clock A. M., July 4th. We were then ordered to fall back to the heights near the Theological College. This command was actively engaged in heavy skirmishing during the 2d, 3d and 4th July. In the action of July 1st, Lieutenant-Colonel Winn was killed and Lieutenant-Colonel Lumpkin fell severely wounded (leg since amputated) while gallantly leading their respective regiments in a charge against the enemy. To Colonel Edward Willis and Major Isaac Hardeman, of the Twelfth Georgia regiment; Colonel J. T. Mercer, Lieutenant-Colonel T. W. Hooper and Major T. C. Glover, of the Twenty-first Georgia regiment; Major W. H. Willis, of the Fourth Georgia regiment, and Major W. H. Peebles, Forty-fourth Georgia regiment, I attribute the success of this command.

therefore, instead of being a political evil, is the cornerstone of our republican edifice. The North should be informed that the South makes no distinction between ultimate and immediate emancipation. As the abolitionists cannot hope to convince slaveholders, they must mean to instigate the North to Federal emancipation, against which the Legislature should protest. Finally, cotton and slavery were inseparable. For the other gubernatorial messages referred to above, see Lib. 5.205: Governor Lumpkin, of Georgia (Upon this subject [slavery] we can hear no arguments: our opinions are unalterably fixed); Governor Swain of North Carolina (the North should suppress abolitionism totally and promptly); and Governors Wolf, of Pennsylvania, and Vroom, of New Jersey, who deprecate agitation but deny that it can be legally repressed. and those of the other governors which accompany this. They form one complete picture. Amos A. Phelps to W. L. Garrison, at Brooklyn. Farmington, Conn.,

olved, That the determination of our Collector and Deputy Collector to pursue a similar course meets with the hearty approval of this meeting. The Southern Press contains appeals on both sides of the disunion question. The Southern Confederacy, of Atlanta, Ga., says: We ask the people of Georgia to be not ensnared or entrapped by the disunion party. --Listen not to the mad rantings of Toombs, or the deceitful sophistries of Cobb. But let the councils of Stephens, of Johnson, of Lumpkin, of Jenkins, and of Warner, be heard. If Georgia, in her sovereign capacity, declares for secession upon the election of Lincoln, be it so; we are ready to follow her mandates, and defend her from federal coercion or abolition aggression. But we counsel the people against rashness, or a commitment to any act until the State, in her reserved sovereignty, shall decide upon the momentous question.--Let National men stand firm, and at the proper time we shall be ready to stand shoulder to sho

29.--Mr. Meloney, of Clarke, introduced a bill in the House to-day providing for prohibiting the levying of executions issued from United States Courts, on the property of citizens of Georgia, prior to December, 1861, declaring void all such processes. The bill to protect the rights of citizens of Georgia was debated. Mr. Lewis, of Greene, ordered an amendment, extending the provisions of the bill to citizens of every State that voted for Lincoln, which was agreed to. Mr. McDonald, of Lumpkin, opposed the bill and amendment, and expressed warm Union sentiments. He offered an amendment proposing to fine every Georgian two thousand dollars who sells a bale of cotton or a barrel of apples to any person north of Mason and Dixon's line! The amendment caused much commotion, and during the discussion which ensued conservative sentiments were freely uttered.--The bill was made the special order of the day for Friday next, when an exciting discussion is anticipated. It will be opposed
