A INTERESTING FROM THE SOUTH. THE REBEL CONGRESS. SWEEPING CONSCRIPTION. Comments on Mr. Lincoln’s Proclamation. SENATOR FOOTE AND JEFF. DAVIS, {oteresting Correspondence on the Re- moval of General Bragg. General Lee on the Floor of the Rebel Congress. THE RICHMOND PRISONS, &c., &c. &e., Mr. Lincoin’s Prociaimation—An Attempt te Corrupt and Divide the South, (From the Richmond Sentinel, Dec. 14.) ABRATAM’S MESSAGE AND PROOLAMATION. Supposing our readers have a curiosity to see the late message of Fresident Liveoin to his Congress, and pre suming that Li cola wants our people to see how gracious ne is, aud what a loving proclamation he bus issued to all in Dixie, we publish beth in our issue today. When. ever the British enveys wishe | to tempt our fathers in the evolution by their proilers of amnesty the Conti Wental Congress always assisted in giving their proclama. tons a wide circulation. for not only did Congress con fide in the loyalty of the people, but they considered (hose pipers as calculated to animate the popular patriotism, "") hundred times stronger are our reasons for expecting this result now. Never did British commissioner ot general, in all his arrogance, put forth so impudent a message cs the Washington man bas sent down to a He is going to forgive us something, it tecems, on certain terms, To the most libe. , unqualided aud all embracing offer of forgiveness to fatuers, Dr. Franklin replied:—“We, who have com- mitted no ‘offence, need no forgiveness.” Our answer wou'd be the same, even if Lincoln's offer imitated the Awmunity of Britain Forgive us what? Fogive us be- cause be bas invaded our States with armed multitudes, to overthrow our laws, destroy our liberties and compass our destruction? Forgive us because he has plundered our Keus aud ravaged ur coasts? Forgive us for having Darned our towns and desolated our homes? Forgive us fer the many thousands of our brothers and sous and dear friendsy whom he bas slain upon our own soil, and while repelling his invasion? Forgive us for the many dear muttiated ones who will remain the legacy of the war when the war shall be over? Forgive us for having ontraged even the sensibilities of Europe by his attempt to excite servile revolt Forgive us for big Beast Bute ler, and for the thousand atrocities which he has let loose agaiust us? He may forgive us for these his crimes; but so long as we have hearts (0 feel and hands to sirike we shall never forgive him. How impudent it is to come, with our ‘br. thers’ blood upon his accursed hands, and ask us to accept his forgiveness! But he goes further. He makes his forgiveness dependent upon terme. We have only to swear obedience to his will We have fo swear that the proclamation of emancipation which he issued Last year, and which we received wiih mock- fmg. ana wh ch has since been @ derision, shall be submited to by us. Our society is to be upturned, In Stoud of that distinction between the races necessary for the happiness of both, be asks us to swear that we will bave rioue at all, until bis Congress of fauutics or bis packed bench of judges shall say that his proclamation was wind. But ail this will not do. We must abandon to chat demon thirst tor their blood, which has been in decently exhibited from the firat, all the men who have rendered our annals censpicuous, and under whose lead we havo won fame, if not a name, ‘among the nations. We must leave the President to Abrsham's teuder mercies. The army of the Potomac must o‘ler up their glorious leader, under whom both Rav: bec Mlustrious Beauregard must be hung. In short, every olficer down to colonel, and every civil func- onary frei Congres«man to messenger, and from Gover- Ror to constable, are tw be retaiued tor Lincolu’s malig- atty. How be and Seward and Sumner would gloat over the hanging bodies of the + dead rebels!” Ja even Lincoln base enough to imagine that a brave peop e such as the confeder :tes have proven themselves, would, under any stress of fortune, prove traitors to the men whom they have called (0 lead them, in camp or coun- jo attempt to divide and corrupt us will be resented as the jugult which it is, And ths is the best that Lincoln can think of for us—utter Prostration at his feet—a social ruin, horrible to every white man, rich or poor; and our choicest citizens bose names are our pride handed over to be banged! This infanous proclamation will but arouse us to new seal and new forts. President Lincoln's Me: ¢ South—The New York Hergd’s Comments Com- mented On. [From the Richmond Sentinel, Dec. 14. Abraham's ‘‘plan,”’ if we are to believe the account of it given by the New York Hexarp, is a very simple plan—it is simpiy that the Confederate States are to sub: mit uncond tionally to their enemies, abandon their in- stitutions under Lincolu's “proclamation,” and go under the federal yoke. He merely proposes that, after three years of body war, we shall yield up much more than the original stake for which we to took up arms Uf course we cannot bi it the man really has uttered in bis messa, t audacious nonsense.

Mr. Presipent—Since writing to you'on the 3d 1 have geen the whole army. 1ts appearance Is very encourag- ing, and gives positive assurance of General Bragg’s ca pacity to command.

My object has been to ascertain if the confidence of the troops in the ability of the army to beat the euemy is at all impaired. I find no indication that it 1s less than when you were in its camps. While this fooling exists, and you regard General Bragg as brave and skilful, the fact that some or all of the gene- ral oflicers of the atmy, aod many of the subordinates, think that you might give them a commander with fewer defects, cainot, | think, greatly diminish bis value, Tome it seems that the operations of this army in Middle Ten- nessee have been conducted admirably. I cau find no record of more effective fighting in modern battles than that of this army iu December, evincing skill in the com- mander and courage in tho troops, which fully eutitie them to the thinks of the government, In the early part of January, the country north of Gra- nada being considered impracticable, I directed Major Geueral Van Dora to bring to General Bragg’s ald the cav- airy of the Mississippi army, except such as Lieutenant Geveral Pemberton considered necessary to him. . * . Sa ‘Ze Thave been told by —— that they ba you to remove Gonoral Bragg, and place me in command of this army, Tam sure that’ you will agree with me, that the part Ihave borne in’ this investigation would Tender it incousisteut with my personal houor to ocoupy that position. 1 believe, however, that the interest of the service requires that General Bragg should not be re- moved.

Barnitz, on or about the 17th day of March, 1862, and theretofore ana thereafter, in the morning, in bis residence in said city, endeavored to take improper liberties with Penelope &. Jacob, then an in- mate of his family, attempting to kiss her, asking and urging her to go with him to the house of a “Mrs. Rice,” on Fifth etreet, in said city, to ince him in a room which he had rented, the key to which he then or that day showed her, saying it was no harm; as an induco- ment to go offering ‘and showing her an octagonal gold piece, Atdinner time of that day said Barnitz agaix urged said Jacob to go and meet him in raid room, olfer- ing to give her $100 or anything eise she desired, ‘if she would go, Said Barnitz offered to set said Jacob up in bugivess in Memphis, Tenn., and spend part of his time with her if she would go, and urged her thereto. During the summer of 1862 Miss Jacob was one of the teachers in Mears Chapel! Sunday School, located on Plum, between Front and Columbia streets. Mr. Larnitz was the superintendent of this school. After an insult given to Miss Jacob by Barnitz in the office of the iattér, whith er she had gone to collect asmal) balance due ber tor sewing, and the institution of the charges, Barnitz, at one session of the school, during the absence of Miss Ja- cob, requested the teachers to remain after the school \\ dismissed, as he had a matter to bring before them of im:- portance. At this meeting, the Secretary was instructed to communicate with Miss Jacob, in effect that at a moet- ing of teachers (five only out of thirteen being present), Mr. Superintendent Barnitz informed the meeting that Miss Jacob had attempted tg ruin his character by circu- Yating falsehoods. No defence being introduced by the accused, who was inthe country, the meeting of five teachers decided that she was guilty, and orderea that she be expelled from the society as ateacher. Miss Ja- cob knew nothing of these proceedings until her return from the country. Soon after the action of the Quarterly Conference Miss Jacob called on the Rev. Mr. Marlay for a letter, and re- ceived one neatly written. setting forth that ter Ja- cob was @ full member in good standing,” &c. Miss Jacob has not attended any charch since October 6, 1862. When Mr. Marlay returned to ber the charges and specifi- cations, it was immediately determined by Miss Jacob’s attorney to enter a suit against Mr. Barnitz in the civil courts, which was done in April. Tho damage are laid ‘at $10,900. ‘Tho satisfaction and justice which Miss Jacob expected to receive in the court of law being so slow she at once decided to take the law in her hands, and in as public a manner as Mr. Barnitz had traduced her name she pro- posed to summarily deal with him. Accordingly, on Thuraday Migs Jacob went to a saddlery establishment on Main street, and pure! a cowhide, the proprietor suggesting to ber ‘not to whip children with that cow- hide”? the replied, ‘No, sir, it is to be used on big ones.”? On her way bome she purchased a quarter of a pound of cayenne pepper.

The minister ceased prayer, the congregation rose to thelr feet, and Barnitz, ‘still on his knees, raiséd up, and, seizi the bide, wrénched it {rom her hand and attem; to ko ber, Dut was prevented by a Mr. Cunning, who grayed bis arms.

A Vossrt, Cannixp over Niagara Farts.—An obliging correspondent at Chippawa sends us on account of a melancholy occurrence which took place on the Niagara river on Monday last which resulted in the death of one ian by being carried over the fall, and caused imminent peril to five others, as well as the loss of a small vessel. About eleven o'clock in the morning the steamtug A. D. in, of Buflalo, reached that port, having in tow two scows, the Abby and tke A. Murray, of Port Kobinson, Ihe captain of the steamer, not knowing the depth of water, kept too far into the river with not suificient steam to keop headway om the scows. One of the latter, the A. Murray, striking arainst the spiles at tbe entrance of the barbor swung around with the current almost into the jaws of the mighty cataract. The captain and four men who were on board, seeing the helpless posiltion into which the vessel bad got i the great peril with which they were threatored—being within less than fiye minutes’ distance o: the great fall—leaped from the vessel and bolaly struck for shore. Four of them, the captain included, succeedot by great exertions in matneaning. themselves above the sur- face; but, sad to relate, the fifth sank amid the leaping and boiling waters, and was carried over the cataract. In the moantime a boat, manned by two brave men, shot out from the mouth of Welland river to the assistaoce of the helpless beings in the scow. ‘The oarsmen, Mesers. F. Lauzan, Jr., and George Morse, plied boldly and swiftiy out, rescued the men from their perilou ittou succeeded in reachimg the shore bove the first rap! ‘One minute more and they would have been carried over the Falls to the great gulf below.
