t matter to us. We beg our friends to remit at once. Roster corrections.—General Lane calls attention to the fact that our types in the April number made us change into Coward the name of the gallant Colonel, R. V. Cowan, of the Thirty-Third North Carolina, whose death since the war has been so widely lamented by old comrades and friends. The following makes important corrections in the artillery organization Army of Tennessee, which we take pleasure in publishing: Feagan's, Houston Co., Ga., April 7. 1884. Rev. J. William Jones. Richmond, Va.: Dear Sir,—In reviewing your published list of the artillery battalions of General Bragg's army engaged at the battle of Chickamauga, I find several errors, which I hope you will not think it vanity or presumption in me to ask corrected, for I think it due not only to myself but to the batteries that opened the fight, and who suffered most, that they should be mentioned. Very little artillery was brought into the action, the densi

Georgia Liberality Towards Volunteers. On the eve of the departure of the Quitman Guards from Forsyth, Ga., a few days ago, the sum of $1200 was raised by the citizens for the benefit of the families of those members of the corps who might need aid during their absence. At Perry, the same liberality was manifested, and $1200 raised in a few moments, for extra equipments of the Southern Rights Guards, Capt. Houser, of Houston county, with a pledge additional that the draft of the company for a similar amount on the citizens would be promptly honored, whenever presented.

A Sensible servant. --The papers North and South reported sometime since that General McClellan gave the choice of going to Ohio, or returning home, to many servants captured in Western Virginia with the baggage lost by General Garnett's command. To the honor of these servants and the surprise of McClellan — but of no Southern gentleman — they refused citizenship in Ohio, and preferred their condition at the South. Among those faithful servants, was one who is known to many of our readers. We refer to Philip, a servant of Lieutenant Joseph Palmer, of the Southern Guards, from Houston county, Ga., formerly of this State. Philip has returned, and is justly proud of his parole, which he will keep faithfully, but with some reluctance, until exchanged for some Lincoln Colonel — for we insist that Philip should not be rated lower than a Colonel in such a reckoning--Charleston (S. C.) Cour

uth Carolina, and Georgia papers report an unusual number of troops proceeding to the coasts of their respective States. The report published in the Southern papers a few days ago, of the occupation of Fort Hatteras by the Confederates, turns out to be incorrect. Tope Whaler, a member of Capt. Deshals Company from Kentucky, died in Abington, Va., a few days since, from the effects of a pistol wound accidentally received. A destructive fire occurred in the town of Perry, Houston county, Ga. a few nights since, destroying a large amount of valuable property. A New Orleans paper says General Robert Patterson, of the Yankee army, holds $300,000 of securities in Louisiana, which will be sequestered. George Robinson, aged ninety-three years, the oldest and one of the most highly respected citizens of Shelby county, Ky., died Sunday last. Wm. P. Clark, a member of the Washington (N. C.) mounted riflemen, was accidentally shot and killed at his camp at Fair-fax

Prices to charge the Government. --At a planter's meeting in Perry, Houston co., Ala., on the 16th, the following prices were reported by the committee as equitable and just for provisions furnished by them to the Government for the army: Corn $3,00 per bushel, field peas $3,00 per bushel, wheat $5,00 per bushel. Sorghum. syrup $3,50 per gallon, stall fed beef 50 cents per lb., fat hogs, gross, 60 cts. per lb., nett pork 75 cts. per lb., bacon $1,25 per lb. Upon consideration of the report by the committee, it was adopted with the amendment that three (3) cents per mile per own be allowed for hauling over five (5) miles.
