rous — who set astride the fence, openly swearing by the Confederacy, and yet ready at any moment to give aid and comfort to the cause which they secretly wish success to, but dare not assist from the pusillanimous fear of bodily injury. That these men exist everywhere is admitted, and Georgia is no exception to the general rule. We are well satisfied that the enemy possess information which they could not have obtained by any other means than secret communication; their sudden advent at Fernandina while the guns were all dismounted and the town in an unprepared state to resist, could not have been the result of any chance visit, but followed from secret information given the enemy. It has been already declared in the papers that a fisherman was the medium of communication; and that these means exist everywhere, even in our midst, cannot well be doubted. The lesson which the people of Jacksonville had learned, and which they carried into effect, will keep the emissaries of Linc

They were saluted with about one hundred and fifty shot — in fact, during the entire morning the booming of great guns were heard from all parts of the city. The enemy have now very formidable works on the river; not only by reason of the number of their guns, but of their range. Seventeen guns have been mounted in batteries, and the passage of the river is an impossibility for any other than an iron clad battery. The success of the Merrimack, or rather Virginia, (a better hame than that stream from which so much of Yankee fifth flows into the ocean of Northern life,) has set all the people astir; but time will be required to effect anything of value. We are very anxious to have full accounts of the battle in Arkansas. The loss of McCulloch and McIntosh is greatly deplored.--McIntosh — a name familiar to Georgians — is well known here, and his worth appreciated. May Van-Horn never cease his pursuit till the foe has been finally compelled to lay down his arms. Mercu

material should be effectually destroyed beforehand. What advantage, then could result from the destruction of the city? None whatever, and the citizens of Savannah will be the first to defend their homes from wanton, ruthless destruction, from whatsoever source it may come. This has been ascribed to General Walker frequently, but I am not aware that the General ever expressed any such opinion. The discussion in Congress relative to the removal of Sidney Johnson from the command in Tennessee, does not find favor here, thought the President may succumb to the violence of the opposition. It has been suggested that the President could relieve Gen. Johnson from the cloud of sand-flies that now annoy him; he could save his friend; he could make many new supporters of his Administration; he could take advantage of the present ardor of the South, and change the whole aspect in the West by taking the field in person. I believe such a movement would be of incalculable service to the

The late desultory movements in our neighborhood indicate an impatience on the part of the invaders which will cause us, no doubt, considerable trouble from predatory incursions. Their fleet has dispersed along the coasts of Georgia and Florida, and now are in the St. Johns river, and doubtless in possession of Jacksonville. In my last letter I expressed the fear that they would ascend the river and succeed in destroying the foundry located there, and the Confederate gunboat being built by Mooney under contract with the Government.

It has been reported here by passengers over the road from Florida that the town of Jacksonville has been the scene of intense agitation on account of the near approach of the Yankee fleet. Besides destroying the foundry and gunboat already alluded to, the citizens appear to have dealt summarily with some Yankees doing business there who attempted to make their way to the enemy; the punishment, though sudden, is not undeserved.

I believe such a movement would be of incalculable service to the country, and around his banner thousands would flock who have not yet been called to the field. Nothing of any especial importance has occurred on our river. Yesterday Commodore Tatnall went down in the Savannah, and, I understand, Gen. Lawton, also, to reconnoitre. They were saluted with about one hundred and fifty shot — in fact, during the entire morning the booming of great guns were heard from all parts of the city. The enemy have now very formidable works on the river; not only by reason of the number of their guns, but of their range.

fisherman was the medium of communication; and that these means exist everywhere, even in our midst, cannot well be doubted. The lesson which the people of Jacksonville had learned, and which they carried into effect, will keep the emissaries of Lincoln in wholesome terror of a like visitation. I have learned that three thousand of the enemy now hold the town, and no doubt will harass the few remaining citizens as long as they are permitted to stay. They are on the main at present, and Gen. Trapier has an opportunity to redeem his honor and teach the foe a useful lesson. He has called upon the Governor for twenty-five hundred men, and, with the force he has at present available, will be able to cope with the Yankees. They have not progressed as far as Jacksonville without encountering serious opposition and loss. No batteries were there to detain them; but the brave riflemen, who are accustomed to the chase in the woods and everglades of the flowery State, did not permit them to
