A Sensible Minister. — v lata number of the
New York Express . says : “We have seen a
letter from a reliable source, stating that a Min
ister of ono of tha great Powers, resident in
Washington, recently stated ihat as long as the
Confederates could koep an army in the field of
one hundred thousand men, they could not be
conquered, and that they could keep a larger
force than ihat moro than five years after they
had lost Ri'-hmond, Cnarlestou and Mobile,
Startling Abolition Canards,
Tuo St, Lo 11 is llapuhlicin’s ’Memphis eorret*
pondent, un.Ur date of January 12, forwarded
that j mraai inioruuia ion that two important
propositions had recently teen made to the Fed
eral Government, The first is stated to have
cotne from a Confederate quartermaster at Her
nando, acting, says the correspondent, “by au*
thority of Richmond officials. Ho hats offered to
sell to Gen Hurlhurt, or to the United States
Government, all the cotton now remaining with
in a certain district yet outside of the Foi oral
lines. Thus ofiar embraces 15,d00 bales, is all
rebel Government cotton, and greonhacks will he
taken for .t. It is said ihat Gen. Uurlhuri favors
.its purchase,and ha 1 recommended that the ptopo
aiti m ba;| carried into effect.” The second is
said lo have come from Kirby Smith, who ra
cially, says the same mendacious writer, “sent
an author z **l messenger to Washington to pio«
pose to the Federal authorities to furnish every
requisite ouihnrity to get out all mu ton in that
portion of the lied river and Oit-chita district
within rebel control, tuo money lor the eamo to
be paid to that class of officers t xcopted from
the amnesty 1 tTorcil by President Lincoln, they
to retiro from the rebel army and go to Mexico.’
The Republican is »oft enough to nffaet to
believe these ournards, and rays editorially :
We have no douut of it, for it comes from
sources likely to have the best uieam ol inlorma
tion ; also, that this would involve tiu* complete
disbandment of the ielu4 forces in Arkansas,
Mississippi, Louisiana and Texa.*, and the iiume-’
diate return ol those States lo the Union.
A Yarrow Escape
The army correeqioiulorit pd Ihe Canton
(Mips?.) Csiizeti gives the folloH'ing narrative
of ih*- manner in which a Confederate eol
ilier in Mississippi recently escaped the
clutches of the Yankees:
While ti welling upon the. sdhjoct of ladies
and the purifying influence of ladies society,
I will take occasion to mention, tor the ben
efu of the fastidious, an adventure ot two
nice and accomplished >OIIOO- ladies, to*
jgeflici will. :i young gentleman well versed
in gallantry. i\oi long since mon cher M.,
ot this brig ule, w hile in the vicinity ot
Federal encampments, took occasion to put
up for the night at the house of :m old ac
quaintance, where lie had ott* n called to
enjoy a peasant rt-past vviih the young la*
tlies. During the night, the Federals, learn
i.ig his wheicabouts, ajiprtfeched the house
creating a bluster cvei y where save in our
young hero’s apartment. He .soundly slept
and conlintted to.-leup as if on “downy
beds of roses,’ unconscious of approach
ing d-itige , tint if the young ladies, panic
stiicken on his account rushed en dishabille
info his room and awoke him liom h:s
si uni bore.
But the Federate had advano. and too far
for him to mak* his rscape in the front, and
there was no window or door in the rear
How then wan his escape to be effected?
Reader, the young ladies iustiluted a plan
unprecedented in flic history of military op
erations. When the old iady discovered he
could not escape hy ruuinug, she rushed
io, crying,‘‘gills ! we unist do something—
the Fedn *ls are already io ihe paotnge.’
No sooner eaid than done. The young
ladies leaped in bed with our young hero,
one on each side, completely concealing his
hea*i, and thereby causing the search ofthe
FeJeials to tie iruiiless They looked into
every nook and under every bed in the
house, no' excepting the onejnecupied by
the hero, but the young Confederate scout
was nouheieto be found. How much bet
ter than lo have suffered him murdered or
imprisoned lor years in a felon's cell.
So we say; but the niytdeiv to us is, why
they did not think of looking in the bed as
welt as under it.

Soldiers of the Armies of the Confedcr&te States■
In the long and bloody war in which your
sourtry is engaged,*you Lave achieved many
noble triumphs. You have won glorious victo
iien over >our vastly more numerous hosts. You
have ofieei fully borne privations and toil to which
you were unused. You havo readily submitted
to restraints upon your individual wiil, that the
citizen might better perform his duty to the
State as a .soldier. To all these you have lately
added another triumph, the noblest ot human
conquests —a vi tory over yourselves.
As the time drew near when you who first
entered tbo service might well have been expou
nd to claim relief fromy»ur arduous labors and
ro.toratieu to tho endearments of home, you
have heeded only the call ot your suffering Coun
try. Again you come to louder your service for
the public dofotice—a Ireo ofleiing which only
such patriotism as yours could make—i triumph
worthy of you aud ot the cause to which you aio
dc-Vuied.
I would in vain at'empt adequately to ex
press tho emottous with which I received the
testimonials of confidence and regard which you
have recently addressed to mo. T > sumo of
ih'ise first received, separate acknowledgements
wete returned. -Rut it is now apparent that a
like generous enthusiasm pervades the whole
army, and that the only exe&ption to such mag
nanimous Under will boos lliOeo who, hav.ng
originally entered for the war, cannot display
a limy their zeal iu the pub io set vice. It is,
therefore, deemed appropiiato, and, it is hoped,
will fie equally acc-ptable, to make a gout-ral ac
knowledgement, instead »-f successive special re
sponses. -Would that it were possible to render
my thanks to you in p >rsou, and in the name of
our common country, as well as in my own, w hile
pressing the hand of each war-worn veteran, to
reoognizo his tiile to our love, gratitude and ad
miration
Soldiers! By your will (for you and tho peo
ple are but one,) I havabeen pl..ced in a position
which debars me from sharing your dangers,
y«*ur soft' nog! *nd your privations in tho field
With prida and affection my heart has accompa*
mod you in every march; with solicitudo it has
sOi ghtto minister to your every want; with ex
uliation if has marked your eveiy heroic achieve
ment. Yes, never in tho tnilsomo march, nor
iu iho weary waicb, nor in tho desperate as : ault,
have you rendered a service so decisive in results
ai in this lust display of iho highest qualities
ot devotion «ud Belf«£a*-riltca which can adorn
ihe character of the wan ior-patriot.
Abeaity the pul.-io of ihe whole boats
in unison with yours. Already they compare
your sponiumoui and unanimous offer ot your
lives, ior tiie do'euce ol your country', with liie
hailing and leiimiant service otitic mercenaries
who are purchased by the enemy at the (nice of
higher bounties than have hitherto been known
iu war. Animated by this coni rust, iln.y ex
hibit cheerful confidence and m >ro resolu o bear
iog. Uv*n tbu murmurs of th • weak and limid,
wtio shrink from tlm trials which make stronger
and firmer your dofile nalures, are ashamed into
silence by iho speciaolo which you present.
Your bittve baffle cry will ring loud m.d clear
through the land ot the enemy, as well as our
own ; will silence (ha vdin-glorious boastings of
these corrupt p ul.z tns and their ponsioiud pit.s ;
and will .lo jii.-tkie to the calumny fiy which
they seek to persuade a del tided people (hat you
arc ready (<> purcuase dishonor,tfilc saleiy fie
degrading sufirn ission.
.Soldiers! Tho cemiog Spring campaign will
opon under auspices woll calculated to austain
your hopes. Your resolution needed nolbiiig
to fortify if. With ranks replenished under tho
influence of vour example, and fiy the aid of
your r* ( r soiilalivui, who give earnest o* their
purpose in add, fiy legislation, largely to \ :*nr
strength, you may welcome the invader with a
confidence jusiilied fiy tho memory of past vic
tories. On the other hand, debt taxation, repe
tition of heavy drafts, dissension, occasioned fiy
tho strife for power, fiy tho pnnuitn! the >p ils
of office, by the thirst for the plunder ot it-e
public treasury; andy above id, fie conscious*
ne.-s of u bad cause, must toll with leanul force
upon the ovovslriined energies of the cueuiy.
His campaign in 1564 must, from the exhaus
tion oi his ros'*tircos both in men and money, fie
far leas formidable than those of the la-t (wo
year.-’, when unimpaired means were u-e 1 with
boundless prodigality, and wiih results whieh iire
B'iggu.ilcd by the meiition of iho glorious names
of .Shiloh and Porryvillo, and Muilicoslior.i’ and

Soldiers ! success awaits us in our holy
sliuggle for liberty and independence, and for
the pro.ervalion of all that loader.-* life desirable
lo bono*able men. When that .miccosm shall l.e

From Florida.-
We have no laier news to report since
the dispatch to Gen Beauregard at Charles
ton, announcing that the advance of the
Orientjf had been checked. That was dated
Thursday evening, and appeared in our
morning edition.
A dispatch dated yesterday afternoon,
and received here last night, from the tele
graphic operator at Lake City, states the
en my had advanced within two miles of
that place, and that lighting w.-<s then going
on. General Finnegan's dispatch, relerred
to above, was probably sent at a later hour.
As nothing has been received this forenoon,
we inter that the i uemy have not renewed
the tight.
Bui little apprehension is felt here for the
results of the expedition. Ample arrange
ments have been made 10 prevent any ex
tended advance into the heart of the coun
tiy, and the chiel fear is lest they should,
by some well contrived plan, or oversight
on the part ot our leaders, succeed in ma
king their eecape and getting back to their
bouts at Jacksonville. The whole expedi
tion should he brought to sorrow, and will
be but tor ihft very worst sort of manage

Diplomacy with France - A Hitch
with France.
A telegram from Washington to the New York
World, of the 2d inst., says :
It is rumored in high cllicial circles here that
we aro upon the eve of u war with France, ow
ing to the singular diplomacy of Mr. Reward
touching Iho questions growing out of tue buil«
ding ot Confederate ratlin in France. It will be
remembered that Mr. Seward assumed a very
bold tone toward the English Government altor
he discovered that the Britinh Cabinet had de
termined 10 detain Laird’s rams and kocp the
peace with this country. His high-sounding dis
patches were all written af.’er the change of pol
icy in the English Cabinet was definitely under
stood. Emboldened by his bloodless victories on
paper, it is understood here that ho assumed a
similar tone toward the French Government,
touching the Florida and the escaped steamer
it.ipl'iibannock, and al.-o with regard to tho rams
whica wero known to bo building in Franco for
tho rebel Government. His position was eo in
cautiously belligerent that he has received a re
ply from D.ouyu do L’huys which has put the
Administration in a cruel predicament. The
United States must cither abandon its pretensions
or g i to war to maintain them. This, it is sta
ir and, is the nnly interpretation which can be put
ou the reply ot the French minister. Ilonco the
panic in the gold luaikui, the call for hvo hun
dred thousand mao, and the. orders which have
been sent to various naval station,, to lit out the
iron-clnds instanter.
Another telegram says :
It is now alleged that the trouble between
France and tho Unit and Slates relates in somo
way to the special tmb assy which Mr. Wm. M.
Evarbi had been sent- on to that couutry. Astor
his services in iho rstu dispute in England, it is
known that ho was instructed to demand of
Franco tho surrender ot the belligerent rights it
accorded to iho Soutuein rebels. Whether tho
demand, tor wh tiover course of action, wuß
based iu a toil peremptory lone, or whatever may
bo tho trouble, it is curtain ihat there is somo
serious difliculty with tho French Cabinet, so
much so as to alarm all save Mr. Seward himself.
