Athens, Ga , Aug. 26 —For several days past the affairs of the Third Georgia Volunteers have been in peculiar condition. The officers have informed the War Department that the men do not want to be mustered out, while the latter have been using alltheir influence to leave the ser- ‘viee honorably. Governor Atkins has at last taken the part of the privates, and ina letter to the War Department tequests that those who want to remain in the service be allowed to do 80, while others be given honor- able discharge. His interference in the quarrel has excited favorable comment from the press of the State. The bitterness injected into the struggle and the methods resorted to to keep the men in the service may be uederstood when it is told that Lieuteaant Clark, when a news- Paper correspoudent had the troops lined up for a pollas to their pref- erences, said: _ let the damn cowards step out.” Bucklen’s Arnica Salve The Best Salve in the world for cuts, bruises, sores, ulcers, salt theum, fever sores, tetter, chapped hands, chilblains, corns, and all skin eruptions, and positively cures piles Ono pay required.
