to the following Bankers, who, for nearly four years,
. in the Confederate Congress, The everlasting Governor Foote, formerly of Mis.
sissippi, then of California, bas now ‘“‘turned up"’ as member from Tennessee, and
as soon as the cenclave was organized, he
introduced a resolution declaring it to be
the duty of Jeff. Davis’ Government “to
carry the war into Afriea,’’ that is, to in_vade the Northern States. He did not like
. the idea of waiting to be eaten up.
W. W. Boyce, of South Carolina, sided
. with Foote. He was fur offensive warfare,
and for holding on to all-the slave States.
He referred to the boast of the rebel Secretary of War, Walker, on the fall of Sumter,
that within a month the Confederate flag
. would be flying over Washington, aad said,
. substantially, tbat, instead of alarming the
North by this threat, the rebel conspirators
should bave done the deed while talking
. peace. Boyce was right about this bragga.
. docio of the rebel official, for the threat of
‘capturing Washington had more effect in
arousing the North than the bombardment
. of Sumter. The peace disguise was thrown
. off a little too soon.
In the course of the debate, Boyce nam,ed Beauregard and Toombs. as the two
}men to forma plan of campaign. Foote
denounced the Confederate Secretaries of

Napoleon, in the war with Italy, did not wait
until the enemy came to bim; he first won
one battle, then flew bere and gained another, then rested there and fough¥ a third
one. TFrederie® the great, who defended
his little kingdom, whieb ove almost could
cover with a pocket handkerchief, against
all the Powers of Barope, except England,
had won all bis battles by bis great genins.
He did not wait untit the Rossiau army
came up, and defeat them; then wait for
the Austrian arapy, marched on one;,
defeated it; then rushed on another. Instead of waiting, he marched and met the:
enemy and cut them to pieees. The Northern troops, at the breaking ou®of the war,
were undisciplined, and it will be recollected that we defeated themat first on every
occasion.
The Southern people are a: Higli-tomed,
patriotic, great-souled peeple, but we cannot endure privations and hardebips like
the North. Hence we should have pursued
an early active and aggressive policy.
Look at the country around us devastated.

waste no towns, The North liad sent the

continued to denounce the defensive policy
so long pursued by bis rebel Confederates,
and advocated the policy of pushing the
war to Philadelphia, New York and Boston,
To pursue this plan, Mr. Jenkins, of Virgioia, mildly euggested that the Confederate

for gentle words and kindly feeling to be

Jerr, Davis On Reverses.—Io his late
message to the Confederate Congress at
Richmond, Jeff. Davis thua alludes to the
rebel defeats at Roanoke and Fort Donelson:
I have hoped for several days to receive
the official reports in relation to our discomfiture at Roanoke Island and the fall of
Fort Donelson, They have not yet reached
me, and I am therefore unable to communicate to you such information of past events
and consequences resulting from them, as
would enable me to make recommendations
founded upon the changed condition which
they have produced. Koongh is known of
the eurrender of Roanoke Island to make
us feel that it was deeply bumiliating, however imperfect may have been the preparation for defence, The hope is still entertained that our reported Josses at Fort Donelson bave been greatly exaggerated, inasmuch asl am not only unwilling but unable to believe thata large army of our
people have surrendered witbout a desperate
effort to cut their way through the investing forces, whatever may have been their
numbers, and endeavor to make a jonction
with other divisions of the army. But in
the absence of that exact information, which
can only be afforded by official reports, it
would be prematare to pass jadgement, and
my own is reserved, as I trust yours will be
. until that information is received. In the
meantime strenuous efforts have been made
to throw forward reintoreements to the armies at positions threatened; and I cannot
doubt the bitter disappointments we have
. borne, by nerving the people to still greater
exertions, will speedily secure reenlis more
accordant with our just expectations and ne
favorable to our canse as which marked the earlier period of thewan —
A Guost.—The disembodied spirit of
James Dunn, a murderer, bas been walking
the streets of Utica, New York, recently,
much to the frightening of quiet citizens
who happened to be vut o’nights. One day
the Observer remarked:
“There is something ia this ghost busi.
. ness, and we think eold lead will go throug!
. that sheet the next timg it appears. Those
who think this ghost cap feel a bullet, and
can bleed, are not a few, and are willing to
try an experiment on him.’
A bint being as good aga kick in such
cases, the apparation did not again present
itself, The spirit of the pregs evidently
frightened the ghost.
