WHAT IT MEANS.
! v From the Chicago Time?, 7th.
We greatly misjudge if the discussion of
the legal bearing Of the proclamation up
on tbe seceded States, when hostilities cease,
(if the government should be successful,)
which has lately occupied the attention of the
Administration press, was not intended to re
sult, as it has resulted, in the maintenance
of the radical construction. It is only by con
ceding the correctness of the positions taken
by the radicals that the proclamation can be
regarded as aught else than mischievous non
sense. This was well understood by the un
principled manager of fte Administration par
ty when lie invited attack by controverting
the'radical construction. He opened the col
umns of.his newspaper for reply, knowing
thosu replies would prove the inconsistency
and folly of its own interpretation.
The people are to be educated, first to be
lieve in. the necessity for the proclam ition, and
next in its; literal construction. -The contro
versy was premeditated, and its resole wc
doubt not is regarded with as much satisfac
tion by the authorities at Washington as, py
tin: liaders who have in lintainc l the
construction.
We append tho terms of peace, as state ■* by
a prominent Abolition-republican in the New
York Tribune of the 2d tost.: . 'Jj fc . i s

FROM SUFFOLK—GREAT ALARM AT
.NORFOLK—ME TKOPLE DISARMS).
Official dispatches were receivod last night
at the War Department from General Long-
street, by a courier who left his headquarters
on last Friday, but what news they bring we
are not able to say. We have good reason to
believe that the intelligence is not important,
and that the advices relate to the business mat
ters of the army. When the courier left our
army was in sight of Suffolk, but what were
General Longstreet’s designs was rot known
to his army. Some beliove that ho will not at
tack Suffolk, and that his purpose is simply to
gather up the forage in that section of the
country. This may be so, but we are dispos
ed to think he has a far better purpose in this
movement on Suffolk. The Northern accounts,
which will be found in another column, shew
that the Yankees there were expecting a but
tle momentarily, and preparations were going
forward lor an attack. With General Long-
street’s army drawn up in sight of SuiiMk,and
skirmishing going on continually between the
two armies, wo cannot see how a battle can bo
vvoidod. ... , * ■
In the absence of official intelligence, ajl
kinds of rumours are rife. The “reliable gen-
tlcinan” brings nows that our forcos captured,
on last Wednesday, two Yankee transports and
six hundred prisoners below Suffolk, but
whether true or not, our readers a^e quite as
competent to judge as ourself. A gentleman
from Norfolk, who hjs reached our lines, says
that the approach of our array to Suffolk had
caused the greatest consternation in Norfolk,
and that preparations werqbeing made to leave
the place in case of a reverse at Suffolk and the
advance of our army. Uu'drcds of persons
were packed up and in readiness to leave at a
moment’s notice.

PNEUMATIC RAILWAYS.
Sending packages through the city in lubes
by moans of atmospheric pressure is among
the latest enterprises of London, a short line
about one-thkd of a mile in length being iu fall
operation, With a prospect of its being speedily
extended so as to embrace a complete system
for the transmission of packages, mails and
merchandise, throughout the city.
The New York Journal of Commerce gives
the following description of this railway :
The tube as at present laid is about three
feet in diameter, closely resembling a gas mair.'
laid a few feet below the surface of the street,"
and the joints made air tight by means of lead
soldering. Within this lubo is a railway track,
oh which is run a car about eight feet long, 1 ot.'
four wheels. The weight ol this, vehicle i.-
800 lbs. This is the entire apparatus employ
ed, aside from that furnishing the motive pow
er, which, however, is not the least curious
part of tho contrivance. Taking advantage of
the law of-centrifugal - force, a hollow wheel
receiving a supply of air near the axle is made
to revolve by the aid of steam power at .the
rate of seventy to ninety miles au hour, thrpw-
ing off from tho periphery a column of airwitb
such force that upon entering tho pnoumali^
tube, tbe car before desciibed is impelled near,
ly thirty miles per hour. The- latter become!
a kind of piston within a cylinder, presenting
a surlnCc nearly five feet rquaic to lliu bUn**

Senatobia, April 17.—Tbe Mississippi is
falling with a rapidity unprecedented. It
commenced declining April 18, and has in
creased every day until it reached a fall cf
two feet on -tho lGtb, at a point ten miles be
low Memphis, and a total of six feet.
Boats descending the river are laden with
munitions, provisions and troops, and wo
fleets of coal tows have' gone down.
The Federal cavalry at Momphis is being in
creased for tho purpose, it is supposed, of c pt-
rating in Northern Mississippi. Several rt gi-
monts of infantry are being mounted.
The news which we published on jester lay,
from the New York Herald, that Lincoln has «‘t-
dcfnxtcly postponed the exooution of the Oon» Ti at
Law passed by Ilia late Congress, is full of mail-
inland of brightness lor our cause! It tells of a ipir-
it among the paople of the North that will no en
dure the draft,for the unholy purposes of Lincoln’s
war. Bribes and bounties have been tried, till
their virtue is exhausted. Lincoln’s armies hare
been dwindllbg by desertion, as well as cat down
by the casualties of war, till tho thirteen hunlnsd
thousand men he has enrolled do not number half
that multitude now. Next month several hunired
thousand more will demand and receive their dis
charge; and Lincoln dares not venture on the
measure that was to fill his rauks again, am ac
cording to the vaunts of his organs, swell then to
three millions, if need be.
Courage then, citizens of the Confederacy t—
Your deliverance draws nigh! That heavy ;upe-
riortty of numbers which alone have given, tho en
emy any efficiency again3t;usjis to cease. Rcduo-
ed to equality of numbers, nay, with the advan
tage probably’ on our side, we shall swiftly clear
our soil of tho hated presence of the wioked inva
ders. Soon our banners are to wave, wo trust, on
outer boundaries, and out- enemies content them
selves with their own heritage, leaving us to ours
in peace. To this end let our re&ders and our he
roes drive the war, and press tho foo, and conquer
a peace by their activity and gallantry exerted in
the coming and present propitious time!
