Chairman. JAS. M. RICHARD*. Sec. AW OPPORTUNITY. The proclamation of Jefferson Davis, published in yesterday’s Post, addressed to the soldiers of the Confederate States, very plainly and without disguise informs the Southern people of the extreme des. peration to which they are reduced.— From this message we learn that there are very large numbers of Boldiers absent from the rebel armies; and Davis, in order to induce them to return offers par don even to deserters, who have not been captured, tried and convicted, lie tells them that our government means their utter annihilation; he remarks: “You know too well* my. country men, what they tDcau by success.. Their malignant rage aims at potbing ©toe than the extermination of yourselves, your wives an 1 children. They seek to destroy what they cannot plunder. They pro pose as the spoils of victory that your homes shill ne partitioned amongthe wretches .whose atro cious cruelties have stamped infamy oh their Government. They desire to incite insurrection and light the fires of mcendiarism-wbenever they can reach your homes arid they debauch the in ferior race hitherto docile and oontented, by promising indulgence of the vilest passion as the price of treachery." If Davis can succeed in making the. people of the Confederacy believe these statements, there is no doubt but that the absentees from his armies will retnrn to them and be augmented by every man and boy able to bear arms throughout the South, He plainly tells them that (hey have no alternative but “victory, or sub‘- jagation,” and the “utter ruin of them selves and families.” In ordertomake his appeal the more impressive, Davis artfully closes up with the following par agraph addressed to the women of the South : . finally, I conjure my oountrywomen—the wives, mothers, sisters, and daughters of the Con iederacy-7-to use their all powerful influence in aid oi this call to add one crowning sacrifice to those whioh their patriotism has so freely and constantly afforded on their country's altar, and *° i oa . r ® that none who owe service in the held shall be she.tered at home from the disgrace of having desertered their duty to their families, to their country, and to their God." The Richmond Enquirer, the BDecial organ of the rebel government, alluding to the hard condition of their conspiracy, remarks as follows: ._. If anv short-sighted confederates of feeble and pallid livers. have been deluding them* selves \vi:h the idea that in oase of suhjagation by our enemy, the worst that coaid happen to as would be merely to go back into the * Union os it was.’ with the ‘Constitution as it is.' ic.. it is ume for them to awake from that dream. For up, in case we are overcome in the field, there is to-be no Constitution and no law. lh® entire possession of the whole Southern country with every house and estate: the ahsolute °* th© land, with its “woods and water*,-mines and fishings, to have and to hold unto Yankees their heirs and assigns," this is the prize fdr which our enemy tights, and without the prospect of which he would not strike anothorliok. To fully attain this, it will be necessary for the Yankees to abelian the Constitution entirely, bo far as re gards us We must be left,without nghts, without remedies, an inferior race creep ing on the face of our own land.” ; From these extracts the reader will perceive two important facts—the ac knowledged weakness of the Confederacy, and the deepexation of its leaders in their efforts to aronse the people to farther re sistance to onr government. If Davis can once satisfy the Southern people that the intention of onr Administration is their utter subjugation, they will, of course, hearken to his appeal for their own pro. faction and defense., Even their women will fight, in such a cause; and like those of Rhetia, when resisting.the Inst of Roman tyranny, seeing their men over matched by numbers, and that liberty was gone, rushed through the ranks: of the victorious legions and expired upon their weapons. Hex-e now is an opportunity for Presi dent Lincoln to scatter the rebellion with out any more fighting. Ten lines from him, Betting forth the objects of the war to be the restoration of the Union and not Southern Subjugation, would utterly destroy the effect of Davis’ proclamation- Th? soldiers, to whom he appeals to re turn to the ranks, would remain where they are or join our forces, while the en lire Southern people would see the impo sition which the rebel leaders had been imposing upon them. . For the past year, but especially within a few months, we have seen and published several accounts of Union feeling in the South, These together with Davis’ proclamation, ought to ad monish our Administration of the neces sity of addressing them a few lines assu ring them of onr desire for Union npon eiju4l teVms, aird at. tkif nanjeatime deny itig the slanders of Davis’.-proclamation.

It is the least that is due to him and the nation to know what he has to say on his own Bide. We trust, therefore, that without further de lay his reports will be made public, so that every one may form an intelligent estimate of the merits and demerits of McClellan, and of the merits or demerits of the managers of the War Department. Let the truth come out, and there will be no danger of the people forming an erro neous judgment. Kentucky Eleotion. Tbe Position of the Hon. Bra ins J, Clay, Member of Con gress Elect from the Seventh Kentucky (Crittenden 1 District. The following is the letter of the Hon. Brntns J. Clay, accepting the nomination of the Union Convention of the Seventh Kentucky Congreßßionnl district: In accepting the nomination by the Union Convention as a candidate for Con gress in the Ashland district in place of the lamented Mr. Crittenden, it may be proper that I Bhould make a short state ment,of my political principles in regard to the present crisis. I am, and always have been, for the preservation of the constitntion and the Union, and for the vigorous proseention of the war to subdue the rebellion which treatens their overthrow. If elected I will vote for the necessary measures to carry on the war to the extent of the na tional power and resources. To my mind, it would be far wiser at once to acknowl edge the success of the rebellion, and make a treaty for separation, than to in sure its triumph and the degradation of the byal States by ref using the means of sustaining the military strength of the nation. &t the same lime J atn opposed to the poUn/ of the administration as to the abo lition of slavery, and the enlisting of slaves as soldiers, and while in the State legisla tare I voted for the various resol a don a which were passed condemning those measure. Bat I do not regard revolution, or se orssion, or asnbmission to the rebellion, as a remedy for that evil policy—they be ing-evils incomparably greater. The rem - edles are id the Union, and under the constitution and laws, through the legißla tnrea and judicial tribunals. 1 Should the Union be restored, it wonld be lor the Conrlß of the slave States to decide upon the legal effects of the President’s procla mation of emancipation. Until the Union shall be restored the rebels, while depredating upon the com merce-bf the loyal citizens on the ocean, and upon the property of the citizens of Kentucky, Missouri,and other loyal States, in their predatory raids, cannot rightfully complain that their property in slaves is not respected more than other property by the armies of the Union. I am not, and never have been, in favor of emanci pation, either gradual, immediate, or compensated. _ I was a member of the Union Conven tion which assembled in Lonisville in March last, and voted for the platform ot principles they adopted, and intend, so tar as they apply, to be guided by them should I be honored with a seat in Con gress. I should hail with joy any disposition manifested by the people of the rebellious States, or any of them, to return, iu good faith, to their lawful allegiance, and iu that event would snpport all measures to facilitate the resumption of all their rights and privileges under the constitution. In the short period before the election it will be impossible for me to vftit the various counties in the district, or to see but few of the voters: but, if time allowed, it would afford me pleasure to defend and sustain my position before you in public disenssion. As this cannot take place, I thought it better that you should fully and fairly understand my principles and the arguments and reasons by which they are sustained. BRUTUS J. CLAY, Jnly 29, 1863. ‘ To the Front!”—An Appeal to the M errand 1 Women of the Con federacy. Frt>m the Richmond Enquirer of Wednesday.J Pride of race, pride in an ancestry of gentlemen, .pride in all those habitudes and instincts which separated us so im measurably from the peddling and swin dling \ ankee nation —all this pride has been openly cherished and avowed, in all simplicity and good faith, and we have a thousand times blessed God that secession, separation, war itself, have come in good time to save our children from being de based by contact with an order ol beings whom in our soul we disdained, j Now, if we should be conquered by those Yankees? If for want of steady perseverance to the end onr country should become the subjugated province, j our children the serfs, our women and maidens the hand-maids of that despised pack of plebeian peddlers! How would the haughty southern dames relish this destiny ? With what eyes would they look upon any confederate men between six teen and sixty who might then be still above groußd, nnwounded and in health ? And these where would they go to hide their shamelul faces? What moun tains would they oall on to cover them ? Earth has no Bhade deep enough to con ceal them ; hell no furnace hot enough to scorch them 1 But we cannot dwell upon this sort Of picture; there will be no such men surviving—none at least deserving that name. The President appeals to the women of the Confederacy, and with good reason : for not evert the men have so deep and .dreftd an interest in this affair as they have. Men tan at least fight to the last and die, and have done with it. Even the cowards can at least fly to other countries, change their shameful names, spend their i vile gains, and *• peep about to find them- ■ Helves dishonorable graves.” But the women can neither fight nor fly. They iinnst follow the fortunes of the country, and if it be subdued by that Yankee na tion, must only bow their proud heads to their destiny, and take the fate to which tbs men will have left them. Many may be be employed as governessess to, teach small ¥anbees ; many, owing to their ex perience in ruling negf-o households, may get service as house beepers in their own .houses tp superintend their own slaves for thfitr Opw Aiiabeba; .

There was nothing of interest from the vicinity of Culpepper. (Jruut Reinforcing Gen, Meade. The Daili / Examiner, Ang. 6th, Bays there is no longer a donbt but that Gen.

Yesterday one Monitor and two gun boats started up, and hMting withio six teen miles of Drewry’s Bluff, commenced a vigorous shelling of the woods, right and left.

Enough ot companies composed of youths below the conscript age wifi speed ily be formed to take the place of veteran troops now doing guard duty in Rich mond.

The enrolling quarters of the company are corner of Third and Broad streets. Only a tew more youths are want ed to complete the organization.— Hick' mond Examiner , August High Friofl of The Constitutionalist Bays; “The Savannah Republican says that one day last week four hundred dollars was paid by an individual in that city tor a twenty dollar gold piece. The man who sold it done {sic) well as & speculation ; but what could any one want with gold at such a price ? Here is a screw loose that ought to be looked after,” A Hercnlean Task A Morton (Miss.) correspondent of the Atlanta Appeal says: “General Hardee has been regularly placed in charge of this branch ox John ston's army, he having gone temporarily elsewhere to look after the affairs of his command. The general is argus-eyed, as indeed he should be, to meet the calls up on him. Pressed by Koseorans and Grant threatened from and with Mobile to take care of, his task is Herculean “Partiz’anship is growing, but unfortu nately in General Johnston’s case ihere is none.

In its lßsne of the 6th it says : “A practice as humiliating to good citi zens as it is disgraceful to those who en courage it, haß lately become one of the most eager passions of lucre- loving, lily livered men in our midst.' No Yankee can escape them; they actually scent their prey when it is a hundred miles away, and the depot by which it arrives is besieged accordingly. Yesterday iporninfe,—upon the arrival of the Central cars, bringing over seven hundred Yankees, some ten or fifteen of these traders met them at the de pot and begged for ‘greenbacks’ in ex change for Confederate notes, giving as six dollars in the latter for one in the for mer I Buch men deserve to be 1 hung. They are worse than traitors, meaner wan cowards, baser than brutes. Every man who trades at all in these so called ‘green backs’ should be tried as an enemy to his country. It is clearly a violation ot patri otic duty and of national usage, and de serves commensurate punishment at the hands of the government.’’ tTu A Hebei Deserter of Importance. A few days since a rebel officer present ed himself to General Sheridan, near Bridgeport, Alabama, and informed him that ha Was a topographical engineer on General Bragg’s staff. He had about his person several maps, which are repre sented to be very valuable. There is rea son to .beneve that the man speaks truth e.thongh hts representations are not as yet taken without certain grains of allowance. T understand fie gives a very gloomy pio hire of the rebel- armyy ; nod eays that Bragg’s army is fast going t(J pieces. The ib entirely gone, and only the stncittob 6ard ana harshest discipline on the-part-of the general officers enable them to keep H frpm crumhUngiike the “baseless fabric of a vision** and dwind» ; ling into nothing. This gloomy news on, the part of those near General Bragg*? person, is really very significant At this time, T he Situation in Mississippi, [From the Meridian tMissJJetUr. July 19, i n the At’ante Appeal.] ?>, From Jackson We have interesting news. Two lads, just from there, bring the intel ligence that the whole ofGrant’s army, excepting one brigade, hati leR Jackson, going towards Vicksburg. There were no Yankee pickets this aide of Pearl river, and our pickets had reached that stream. Six .Yankee prisoners, taken not Jar from Pearl river, having been taken! in the-uaual Yankee occupation of thieving, were brought in this morning. Nothing intelligible could be got out of them. In Jackson, nearly all of Main street, the Governor's mansion, and many other houses, were burned to the ground. The railroad from Brandon to Jackson was effectually destroyed, not a rail report ed to have been left in its place, and that portion of the road from the river to the site of the Confederate House, which we had ribu.lt, was torn up. The rails iu many places were carried to the river and thrown in. When the citizens of Jackson sent Grant a fiag of truce, formerly surrendering the city, after the evacuation by onr forces, he promised that private property would be respected, It was a Yankee promise, for his soldiers pillaged every house and stole whatever they could lay their hands on. Oii the line of their march from Jack son to Brandon, on the 18th, mh and 20Lh instants they, in addition to the des truction of the railroad, laid waste the whole country. In Brandon they burned the whole ot the South side of the public gqpare, two large blocks of buildings, the railroad depot, and pillaged every house iu town, stealing from and robbing in open day, even the poor negrotea of the town. A well known negro barber shop of that town was robbed of every; article it con tained by these representatives of “the best government the world ever saw,” and no article of domestic uss was too in significant for the peculant proclivities of low, mean, vulgar Yankees. It the har vest of their plunder were diamonds of the first water, solid gold and pearls, in stead of what they are, it would be bat a poor compensation for the weight of in-' tamy which they are laying up for their character on the impartial page of history. The railroad from Jackson to Cantou is destroyed. They also burned a train of forty cars and two engines between Canton and Jackson. We will loose heavily in rolling stock by their depredations north of Jackson. 'lJhere arc from ninety in one hundred locomotives belonging to the J*ew Orleans and Jackson Railroad and the Mississippi Central Railroad , which the destruction of Pearl river bridge pre' vented us from bringing of, which will fall into their hands , and vj' course nearly all the rolling stock icill share the same fate. From everything we can learn the enemy don’t intend occupying Jackson, nor doe * he intend leaving it in a position to be of any use to us. Lie never would have destroyed the railroad if he contem plated occupation. Jackson, he knows as well as Gen. Johnßton knew, is no point of strategic importance, and he will simply make it impossible lor its being of any service U> us. Mobile ib now doubtless the next prize claiming his attention, and his movements would indicate an early approach to that city by way of Matlisonville, La., on the lake, landiDg at Biloxi, Springs, or Pascagoula, thence marching overland and combining with a gunboat attack on the city with tbe iron-clads relieved bv the fall of Port Hudson and Vicksburg. He is too cunning an old fox to follow this army up among the sterile hills of Scott, when he wonld be at the mercy of the climate, the drought and the cavalry, his commu nication constantly in danger ot being cut off, and his supplies destroyed. But we mußt wait and see. Mr. Vallandigham—A Libel g Nailed.

Seymour, under date of Albany, August Sd, writes to the President with respect to the draft in New York and Brooklyn. He con demns the course of the Provost Marshal commencing the draft without consulta tion with the city or State officers, at a time when the militia were absent at the seat of war,, and while there was not even soldiers enough to man the fortifications in the harbor. The Governor complains of unfairness in the enrollment, and thinks in this lottery for human life, as he terms it, there should be implicit impartiali y. — In the rural districts the draft has been executed with justice, and the conscripts have accepted their fete without a mur mur, and sometimes joyfully, In the dis tricts of New York, however, with a pop ulation much less, the number to be draft ed is in some cases double that on the former occasion. The attack on the en rolling officers, which subsequently grew into the most destructive riot known in the history of the country, he pronounces unjustifiable. Speaking further of the riots in New Y'ork, he says: “Disregard 1 for law and disrespect for judicial tribunals produced their natural results of roloberies aud arson, accompanied by murderous out rages on a helpless race, and for a time the very existence of the comiaerciat me tropolis of our country was threatened.— It is gratifying that the cities ns of New York were able, without material aid from the State or nation, to put down this dan gerous insurrection. For a time the nation had not means to protect its own arsenals and navy yard. One thousand men could have Beized them all, and then used the armaments for the destruction ot the shipping and the city itself. The Governor also complains that no credit has been given to the city for the number of volunteers sent, and the noble exertions of the militia in times of peril. He therefore asks fora Suspension at least of the draft till its Constitutionality is tested. The President in reply, nnder date of August 7th, sayß he cannot suspend the draft in New I ork, because time is too important. He admits the disparity of the quotas in different sections, and ac counts for it by the fact that bo many more persons, fit for soldiers, Bre in the city than in the country, wno have too re cently arrived from Enrope to be inclnded in the'censns of 1860. Still he would not consider that reason sufficient- He would direct the draft to proceed, drawing only the average quota of all districts. After this drawing, the city districts Bhall be carefully re enrolled, and the Governor’s agents might witness every step of its pro gress. Due credit will be given for all volunteers. The President would not ob ject to abide the decision of the Supreme Court. He would be willing to facilitate it bnt could not consent to lose the time.
