The name of the Southern Confederacy.
--The Charleston Courier has an article on the name to be given to the Southern League, or Confederacy.
Among those suggested our contemporary mentions the following; " Apalachian League," "Apalachia," "Alleghania," "Columbia," "Chicora," "Fredonia," "Washington League," "Washington States," "Atlanta, " "Augusta," "Carolana," "Florida," "Georgia," "Alabama," "Louisiana," "Carolina," "Georgia League," "Georgia Confederacy, " &c. That is certainly a pretty good list to choose from; but then a rose by any name will smell as sweet.
Therefore any short name will be as satisfactory.
