His statement that' the garrison of Vicksburg lias 6ye months’ supylie^o'n hand *fl<J the place cannot be taken except by star vation, e believe to.be given on personal knowledge and to bo entitled to much confi dence. If this be the state of things, our chance is still good to hold this important po sition, and we feel assured neither the Govern' ment, nor Gen. Johnston, or the authorities of Mississippi or Alabama, will bo slack in their offorts to co-opcratc in tho defence. Now is the time to show what can be dono, and un less Grant can open communications on the Yazoo, wo think be is in no very promising condition to sustaiu a long seige.

They say they aro from Missis sippi and are going to join their command, which is, (as they report,) the Jeff Davis’ legion of Gen. Stewart’s 'command, 'fifty said they were only traveling- about ten or twelve fcg'a day.

At the concln Sion of his speech, Douglas set down exhausted his chair, hardly'conscious ot. those who flocked around him.
