Straggling The earnest addresses of President Davis and General Lee to the soldiers of the Confederacy, in the present period of importance in the summer campaign, are entitled to the serious consideration of not only the soldiers, but the people generally. That our cause is anything but desponding, every one who estimates the situation of the country must feel convinced. Yet to defend ourselves and repel the invasion with proper energy and effect, it is necessary that every soldier should be at his post. The feeling of fatigue and desire to spend a little while at home have no doubt induced some brave fellows to take advantage of some little scratch or ache to absent themselves, under the impression that they could be spared without detriment to the cause. it only needs enough men deluded by this argument to subject the army to a draft upon its force very disadvantageous, to say the least independent of good fellows who are thus misled, there are some who are arrant skulke

Maury (search for this): article 3
Mobile to be defended to the last. --The Mobile Advertiser has the following relative to the coming defence of that city: While Gen. Johnston was recently in this city the prophets of evil begun to whisper abroad that he had come to consult with Gen. Maury about the ways and means of evacuating the city. When this was mentioned to Gen. Johnston his grave face relaxed into a smile, and he said "Had that been my purpose I should not have shown my countenance among you. I am here for the directly opposite purpose of looking into your defences and preparing to hold your city." Afterwards, when he had visited the works, and minutely examined every position and gun, he remarked to the same gentleman, "You can tell your people that Mobile is the most defensible seaport position in the Confederate States." Mobile is to be defended, then, to the last.

Brig, Gen. Gro. C strong. --Gen. Strong, who was fatally wounded in the attack on Fort Wagner, July 18th, is the same individual who acted in the capacity of Adjutant General for the brute Butler, and who tyrannized over the helpless women and children of New Orleans during the reign of the Beast in that down-trodden city.
