such weak-kneed disciples be at peace. An army which has been so thoroughly whipped as Grant's, is not going to besiege the army that whipped it. It is the beaten army always, not the victorious that is besieged. It would take half a million of men to invest Richmond, with Les's army inside of the works. We feel perfectly secure with Gen. Lee and his army between us and the enemy, and well assured that the campaign, terminate when it may, will be to us a triumphant success. From Northern Georgia, we publish cheering news this morning. Gen. Johnston has retired the foe, but he has never shown him his back. On the contrary, he has exacted a heavy toll in blood for every foot of the way he has travelled. He himself tells us, in the telegram which we publish this morning, that the numerous combats in which he has been engaged, amount in their results to a battle; of course he means to a successful battle, for the advantage has been greatly in his favor.--The public, as is the h

l battle at the present moment. He is gradually moving down to the White House to unite his forces with those of Beast Butler, when, if ever, he may pluck up courage enough to try the mettle of Lee's men once more. That he will do so before this Junction shall have been made we do not expect. After all — that is after he shall have joined Butter — he may prefer the slow process of entrenching, to the more rapid, but less promising, method of carrying our works by storm. The lessons of Spotsylvania have tamed him down prodigiously, and what is worse for him, they have considerably abated the courage of his troops. Should he undertake a singe his case is quite as hopeless as it would be should he attempt an assault. With an army so nearly equal to him in numbers that it is able to beat him in a fair field in his front, he cannot invest Richmond. There are croakers here, as we suppose there would be in Paradies, who are greatly horrified at the prospect of a sledge. They talk abou

The atrocities of the Yankees. In a letter to his Minister at Copenhagen, dated 14th April, 1863, Seward said: "It looks as if, by another year, we can put down the rebellion by starvation, if in no other way." This was the first hint of that system which has since been deliberately and persistently followed by the Yankee armies, and which has given rise to cruelties such as the world has never witnessed since the irruption of the Northern barbarians into the provinces of the Roman Empire, unless, it may be, in the war of the Turks upon the Greeks, or in the civil war, of Mexico and the Spanish States of South America. The Yankee Government has systematically engaged in the project of starving eight millions of people, men, women, and children, whom it has found it impossible to subdues by force of arms. In the pursuit of this horrible object the simplest dictates of humanity are utterly disregarded. Murders are of every day occurrence, and still more numerous are the instanc

ically engaged in the project of starving eight millions of people, men, women, and children, whom it has found it impossible to subdues by force of arms. In the pursuit of this horrible object the simplest dictates of humanity are utterly disregarded. Murders are of every day occurrence, and still more numerous are the instances in which every possible means of subsistence are destroyed, and the inhabitants left to starve. We published yesterday a statement of the process pursued in Northern Georgia, where the farmer is compelled to give an inventory of his horses, stock, grain, farming utensils, &c., and is punished by death if such inventory be found defective. It is impossible that a day of retribution should not come for such crimes as are perpetrated by these devils in human shape. It were impeaching the justice of the Supreme Being to imagine otherwise. In all history we recollect scarcely an instance in which great national crimes have not been visited upon the perpet

eaching the justice of the Supreme Being to imagine otherwise. In all history we recollect scarcely an instance in which great national crimes have not been visited upon the perpetrators. These atrocities do good to no one--not to the Yankees, because they cannot enjoy what they are engaged in destroying — not, of course, to the Confederates, whom it is the object of them to annoy — not to the negroes, to woo, in a great measure, the execution is entrusted.--It is hoped to subdue the Confederate States by such measures, the hope is vain.--Such wanton injuries inflame the resentment of the people, and leave but one mind, one heart, and one purpose, in the whole Confederacy. Had subjugation ever been possible, and had the Yankees deigned to render it otherwise, they could not have hit upon a plan more exactly conducive to such an end. The Southern people, burning with resentment for unimaginable wrongs, see plainly the necessary consequences of submission, and they will greatly prefer
