Hoping the motive which prompts 1111 impartial
ohsorvor tu tho following train uf reflectim! i.-.-p.t-ing
tlm httlit'H irho vinit ijirrH exclusively at hns

11 ii I patriotic community, wo bog leave to .-ubmit
to them, through your columns, tho following sug
gestions, although not without tiio highest sense of
tho -valuable services thoy havo rendered in count
less instance, and the more than kind solicitude of
which tho soldier is often made the recipient.
It is to tho aboro mentioned liiat wo wish to re
mark, that while all allowances arc iniulo by pel suns
as liberal as ourselves fur tho l'aseinaliuiis of rank
as well as those frailties of our nature which olten
tiines seek coiiFpiouity at the expense uf uul.ler
impulses, wo cannot sanction tho decided par
tiality shown by soino in dispensing their In-nciiccs
to tho sick and wounded daily being brought tu 1 1 ic
hospitals.
To 11 oloso observer it would seem that the getie
ruiis spirit of oiuulatiun which once cxi.-lcd in ad
ministering to these poor sufferers w ithout regard
either to person or rank, has either degenerated
into fawning sycophancy or been entirely with
drawn from tkoso whn.xv sad misfortune it is tu
flourish under other auspices than that of a Mc
ami bar regime, though not iess worthy or mnre
slow in appreciating these littlo evidences of wo
manly sympathy and patriotic devotion.
Many there are, who ci.mo ani ingst 11-, nu( only
devoid of moans ani without friends, but from a
deficiency in education, entirely destitute of those
pleasing insinuations uf niaunor, which enable-one
to win their way so readily to the heart. A great
miuihor of this class nro doubly exiles, banished
Ly tho rudo hands of tyrany from their native lan 1,
and driven by tho ruthlo-s invader In in thvir

.. ('. ('. IHw khiirn, I '., unit Aiif di: Cmitji:
C regret to learn from your letter thai men nf
wealth and inlliioiico in your county, who have
inure property than their neighbors to be defenodd,
and who have Confederate details to roiuainat homo
tu tho pursuit of their ordinary avocations, and nro
performing no military service, express a detenui
oatioii not to obey my laic order and report at At
lanta to aid tho gallant army under lieu. Johnston
in driving back the army of invasion which now
threatens tu overrun our belnvcd State, which is the
key in the Confederate arch, and to devastate all
our hollies.
Tho ernps are now generally laid by in Hie low
er half of the State, and can bo by the liOlli of this
mouth in the upper part. The provision supply uf
next year will not therefore ho sey usly endanger
ed hv Iho ab-enee of each of N 0 who control
plautaiioos lor 11 short period during the part of
the season that is usually one of the comparative
leisure, after the work in tho ornp is dune. Wo nro
now in llio midst ot (ho crisis. Our self sacrificing
unities have lung sluod a living breastwork be
tween the enemy and tho properly of those who
you ay now refuse to obey uiy eall for the reserve
111 ilit ia. The Stato officers have nobly responded,
ami they 11 nil the two regiments of tho Stato line
havo rendered important service on the battle field,
and I think the lime has 001110 when those who
have so long occupied tho more comfortable, secure
ami profitable positions in the rear under Confed
erate details, should slept, forward, moot the enemy,
and take their shard of the danger.
You will, therefore, on and ill tor the 2!llh of this
month (the day Set apart in my proclamation for
tho militia of your county to loao home) proceed
to arrest all such persons as are embraced in my
proclamation who may refuse to accompany tho
balance of iho reserve militia of the county, nml
w ill send them undorarrest to Atlanta to Maj. lien,
i. W. Smith, where they wil1 bo dealt wilh accord
ing to law. To aoeouipli-h this object, you are au
thorized to use all the force necessary. You will
temporarily brevet or lance such per-'ons as are ne
cessary to aid in carrying out tins outer, and will
uso all nou commissioned ollireis and all the mili
tia ol' tho county, iu-luding all I., 'tween til'ty-tivo
and sixty years of age, wilh all Iho gum- in tho
Ooutily, if you cannot othonvi.-o enforce obedience
to tho order contained in my proclamation. All
able to bear arms must come to tho front and aid
in the defense of all that is dear to tho people.
Those who attempt lo skulk fr.in tho discharge
of this duly, to hide behind nml under exemptions
or details not known to the laws of lieorgia, mast
be ooiupelled to emno ami do their part.
Tho rule laid down for iho government of your
conduct will apply tu all Iho aids-de-oainp ol 'Iho
Slate, who will be expect. .! to act c.iillioiisly and
prudently, but lirmly and decidedly.
Major (Jonori'l Smith will send a detail of oiiom
more olliecrs back to each ouuiity tu aid in eiifoieing
oliedieni'o lo my order.-, who will also act upon (he
rules above laid down. If nriuod resistance is
made in any county, which is too powerful to be
uveri'iiine by tho militia force at the eoinuiand of
I the officer, ho wil! report the facts and suflicicnt
i armed force will bo sent to overcome force with
force and to compel dclini(Uouts to do their duly.
I 'the militia who report from eaeli county should
I see that t he v bring with them tho.-" who reltiso to
I i-oino by sending out details at tho time ol' starling,
wnen noees.-ary to gather them up.
