Poor old Scott, nearly dead with the gout, and broken hearted at tiie decay of his Military honors. Jett the United States, a few weeks ago, a voluu' tary exile, never to return. Having lost all his friends as well as his t ime, and being helpless by reason of excess of app tile, be concluded to bun' up Mrs Scott, who had been living apart from him in Paris, for six years, trusting to find in her heart, what he could find no where else, a spark of sym pstliy for his misfortunes, and especially a help foi the multiplying bodily infirmities of excess and old age As to the meeting between the two. the pa pers give the particulars. It way be true that Mrs Scott shed teats at tho sight of the old ingrate, but they were terns of sorrow, not of joy—of sor row, because she knew that he was ou her hands for the balance of his life. Since the above was written we see that Gen'l. Scott has returned to the I'. S. We congratulate Mrs. Scott, A ray of Trntb, Mr Conway, Member of the U S Congress from Kansas, made the following admission, on the lluur of the //ouse of Representatives, a few days ago. Mr Conway (Rep ) of Kansas, contended that the conflict which has been progressing for nine months has changed its original character. From oi attempt to put down an insurrection it has set- !:•"! into deliberate war We beve not encouuter- e 1 the enemy in any battle in which we have won an ui.questionable victory. With the exception of the advantages gained by two expeditious on the Southern coast, our arms have everywhere been overborne, notwithstanding our volunteers hive displayed a gallantry rarely cq tailed The gener al purposes ot the government tiave been defeated, and the rebels have secured with nations a bellig or- ntcharacter, in derogation of their responsibili ty to the Federal Union. CHow this plain statement nails to tho counter all xhs lying accounts of the northern Telegraph, newspapers, aud official Federal reports of the bat' tics between the Federalists and the Confederates ' S -arceiy an encounter between the hostile forces, but has been claimed as a Yankee Victory! Yet a member of Congress, has the audacity the hones. Christian* Day—Diary.

The London Observer says : ‘‘The Queen’s Advocate, Sir John Harding, At torney General Sir William Atlierstnne, and the So licitor General Mr Rowndall Palmier, have been in frequent personal communication with the govern ment during the last few days. The Times ot the 28tb says the depositions of the officers of the Trent hav u been submitted to the lavv officers of the Crown, and their opinion has been given that the proceedings of the American frigate are not justified b.v the law of nations. It is, we understood the opinion of these jurists that the right of the Federal Government, acting by il officers, was confined to the visiting and the search ing of the mail packet; and if any men or things believed to be contraband of war had been found • >n board of her. the proper course was to take her nto port and submit the question to the Prize Court, which would hear evidence and argument on both sides, and would have decided the case ac cording to precedent and authorities. The Times observes that this proposition seems so clear that it requires only to be stated to obtain universal as sent. The Cabinet meets on Friday to consider what action shall be taken on the opinion of the law officers. We do not wish to speculate as to what steps they may consider necessary. If Ma son and Slidell were wrongly taken, they must be restored, with sufficient apology. Death of Col. E. C. Bullolk.—It is our mel ancholy task to record the death of Col. E. 0. Bul lock, of the 13th Alabama regiment, stationed near Mobile. He died this tnoruing, of typhoid fever, at the residence of Dr. Win. O. Baldwin in this city. Col. Bullock was. wo believe a native of Charles ton, S. C. He lmd resided in Barbour county, Ala., a number of years, and was highly esteemed throughout the Srate. In point of intellect his po sitiens as a member of the Bar, of the State Sen ate, and of the Press, (he was long the editor of the Eufaula Spirit of the South,) abundantly at tested that a longer life was only necessary to have enabled him to attain the loftiest rounds of the ladder of fame. He was a leading member of each of these callings. The age of deceased was probably 35 to 40 years. We learn that the remains will be taken to Bar bour for interment. Montgomery Moil '23rd. Secretary Welles in a Fix.—Wonder how Liu coin's Secretary of the Navy will manage now to crawfish out of the position he takes iu the follow ing clause in his repu.it: Tue prompt and decisive action of Capt. Wilkes merited and recived the emphatic approval ot the department, and, il a too generous forbearance was xbibited by him in not capturing the vessel which had these enemier. (Mason and Slidell) aboard, it, may, in view of the special circumstances, aud of its patriotic motives, be excused ; hut it must by no means be permitted to constitute a prec-deat hereafter for the treatment of any case of similar infraction of neutral obligations by foreign vessels engaged in commerce or me carrying trade.

A Stray leaf from Memory’* P»|t. “Do you know that lady on the opposite side of the street 7” asked my friend of me, as we sat in her vine-covered porch, trying to while away the hours of a sultry summer’s day. Immediately I turned my eyes in the direction mentioned, but not being able to cateh a glimpse of the face, and failing to recognise the form, re plied. in a careless tona: “No, I believe not.” ‘Well, yon ought to know,” responded my friend, “for. if I mistake not, it is one of whom you thought a great deal in day* gone by.” “Ah. indeed !” returned I. my interest awaken ed, and scanning with a closer eye the neatly- dressed lady who walked slowly tip the street.— “Pray . do satisfy my curiosity, for I have not the least idea who she can be, and really, I am too lazy to try my hand at gues*ittg : the intense heat this afternoon having unfit me for the least men tal exertion.” “Well.then.it is no other than Mrs. D , former ly Miss Kale R , the music-teacher in our Female Instituie.” “Indeed! ready!” said I much astonished: and now I wondered at my own obtuseness, for— as I gazed at the retreating form with a look so bold, 6o penetrating that it probably would have met with a relink* had the owner been aware of the fact—my mind was fully satisfied that it was the very same being whom, years ago I had so ardent ly so devotedly loved. True, the form had lost its girlish trimness, but there was the same winning toss of the little head, the same light, elastic tread ; and as she di-appeared from view, I turned eager ly to my friend, inquiring : “How did she marry, and whom—and where does she live ?’’ ‘ Oh.” responded she, “she married Charlie D., the object of her choice. He is a young lawyer of great promise. They have two interesting little sons—are doing wed, and live in the large white house upon the hill in our rear.” Having thus briefly and explicitly answered my inquiries, my friend retired into the house to at tend to some household affairs, while I, left to my self. reclined lazily in the chair ; my mind, in the meantime, wandering with lightning speed back, far b«'-k, into the dteamy, misty past. The leal- f lets ot memory were unclasped, and with-u their pages were pencilled b-'fore my mental vision, the thousand incidents that colored the pathway of my childhood hours; pictures, life-portraits of those 1 loved, came up before me, and 1 forgot the preseut while musing of by gone days. Miss R was n u sic-teaciier in the college at 8. Although passi- n- ately fond of music, I was not one of her pupils that science, for iny parents felt unable to incur the expense ; hut, in common with the w hole school. 1 enjoyed tho privilege of receiving daily instate tions from her in vocal music. Well do I retnem her the first time I entered Miss K's. presence, ana the impressions my mind received while gazing with childish curiosity upon her sweet expresstv features. Tnere was always in my nature a chord strongly attuned to whatever was sad and plain live I dearly loved the sighing of the wind among the trees ; it seemed to breathe a language my heat t understood. To my ears there was some thing pleasant in the continued patter of the rain drop. against the window-glass ; and the melan choly notes of the whip-poor-will at eventide awoke in my bosom an answering echo. Music poetry and paintings at all times elictited my child ish admiration, but far more when they breathed or reflected something sweet and sad. Amongst my companions I was gay and fr.fficksome, lond ut sport, and entering with zest into all their schemes for amusement; but it was only when some skilful hand touched aright the plaintive chord in my na tore that I was found to be other than a wild and careless creature. It was this sad and undetinable expression upon the countenance of Miss R. which drew me first so irresistibly towards her, and en ded in creating in my young heart an interest, an affection for her, as pure aud holy as it was las ting A shade of sorrow continually rested upon her brow, as if something troubled h. r. How 1 longed to comfort and console ! My childish pity at length ripened into love, and the tendrils of my little heart kept twining closer and yet closer around my teacher, until each waning day fouud me impatiently longing tor the welcome hour to en ter her presence. But this strange, mysterious feeling was all a secret in my own heart. She was totally unconscious with what reverence the plain- looking little girl, who so often ceased singing to gaze upon Iter face, regarded herself, she never dreamed wbat music there was to me in the sound ot her approaching tootsteps, what magic in the gentle touch of her soft hand, or how my young heart thrilled with delight to hear my name pro nounced by her sweet lips I was considered a good singer fora child, aud was extremely fond of the exercise ; but often in a capricious mood my voice wou.d cease to warble with my companions ; then one soft glance from her loving eyes would instantly charm away all unpleasant humor, and cause my tongue to send forth again its melody.— The sweeiest flowers I could find were gathered for Miss R , and oh, how my little heart gladdened when, in offering them, my own sunburnt hand touched hers, so soft and white! Upon one occasion a friend gave me a reward— a large, nice, rosy pipkin. The fruit was carried to school and displayed, and ray companions ea gerly waited to share with me its juicy, tempting sweet*. But, no ; it was for my singing te-cber. Miss R.; and with, what delight did 1 bound for ward, as siie descended the steps after school, amt place in her hand my rosy apple: Far sweeter to my heart was her pleasant ‘Thank you,’ accompa nied with that winning smile I so loved to see.thau a thousand such apples to my childish palate.— Time roiled ou. I left the Institute, but I never ceased to remember the sad, loving face that so of ten sat at the piano, looking wearied and troubled. Wherever I have roamed it has haunted me, and my child-love, though cankered by the rust of years, its memory still comes over me like some pleasant dream, some vision too bright, too pure to last — She, perhaps, has torgotteu my existence. Alas ! what changes old Time ca But right then the cheerful sound of the supper- bell awoke nte trom my reverie ; the past fled like a mist before thesuu, and I arose from my seat in the dim twilight, a little saddened by my tran sient visit to by gone days, but prepared aud wil ling to enj y the luxuries ol the present.. Should the eye of Mrs. D. fail upon this hasty scribble, she will probably recoguise her portrait Ai nt Edith conld have been devised to supply the St*to with [ seizure bjr enemies within, as well as from capture by foes without. Uy agreement by the States named, such as was effected for similar purpose by Michigan and Ohio and by Missouri and Iowa, their bounda- daries could be so changed as to render the capital more romote than at present from the influence of State governments which have arrayed themselves in rebel lion against the Federal authority. To this end, the limits of Virginia might be so altered as to make her boundaries con sist of the Bine Ilidge on the east and Pennsylvania on the north leaving those on the south and west as at present. By this arrangement two counties of Mary land (Alieghany and Washington) would be transfered to the jurisdiction of Vir ginia. All that portion of Virginia which lies between the Blue Ridge and Chesa peake Bay could then be added to Mary land, while that portion of the peninsular between the water of the Che-apeake and the Atlantic, now jointly held by Mary land and Virginia, could be incorporated into to State of Delaware. A reference to the map will show that those are great natural boundaries, which for all time to come, would serve to mark the limits of these States. To make the protection of the capital complete, in consideration of the large accession of territory which Maryland would receive under the arrange ment proposed, it would be. necessary that the State should consent so to modify her constitution as to limit the basis of her representation to her white population. A reference to a map of the United States will show that this proposition amounts to neither more no'r less than the ipingout of the rebel State of Virginia and the parcelling out of its tevitory among the loj al States of Kanawha (Western Virginia), Maryland and Delaware The map of the repion in question which we publish to-day will enable cur readers to see this at aglattce. The Blue Ridge is to be the eastern boun dary of the State It is nowthe eastern boundary of Kanawha, and tho two Maryland counties of Alleghany and Washington, now lying between Pennsyl vania and Virginia, are to be added to th • new State, so as to run the teritory straight to the Pennsylvania line. But. as a large recompense to Maryland for this cession of teritory that State is to have its teritory extended westward throughout Eastern Virginia till it meets the Blue Ridge, which is proposed as its western boundary. This will enlarge Maryland into a great and populous State, which will include Norfolk, Fredericksburg, Petersburg. Richmond and all the tobacco growing and slave raising region. Dela ware is also to come in lor a share of the reb el States, and is to have the two peninsula counties of Accomac (formerly Wise’s shire) and Northamton, now in possession of our troops and manifesting loyalty to the Federal Government. The portion of Virginia thus proposed to be ceded to Maryland is known in the local geogtaphical distinctions in the State as the Tide-water districts and the Pied mont district. The former contains thirty seven counties, bordering on the Atlantic and Chesapeake Bay, and the latter thir ty-two counties The Tide-water lands are represented by that venerable rebel, Ed mund Ruflin, in an address which be de livered some years ago to have increased in value §12,000.000 in twelve years. It bv far the wealthiest portion of the State, producing the great bulk of the tobacco crop, which is Virginia’s princi pal staple. The chief manufactures of the State are comprised within this region. The counties of Accomac and Northamp ton from the southern portion of the pen insula, lying between Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic, of which the northern coun ties constitute the State of Delaware.— 'J hey belong geographically to that State and for that reason, if there were no other, they should be annexed to it. They con tain, together, some 16,000 inhabitant, and are principally valuable for their fisher ies. On the other hand, Alleghany and Wash ington counties, which are sandwiched in between the northern boundary of Penn sylvania, belong geographically to Virgin ia. The former has an acre of 800 square iles. Its extreme length is sixty-five miles, its breadth varying front seven to thirty-five miles. It is principally adap ted to grazing and dairy farms; but it has great mineral wealth in the celebrated Cumberland coal mines. Its population is about 25,000, including some GOO slaves. Washington is a great wheat growing coun ty, having an area of about 480 square miles. Its annual product of wheat averages about a million bushels. Its principal minerals are iron and lime-stone. There are several cotton factories located on its streams. Its population is some 34,000, of which over 2,000 are slaves. Mr. Cameron, in presenting this propo sition to Congress, simply puts it upon the ground of propriety and expediency. He suggests that this reconstruction of State lines will withdraw from the Federal capital the influence of State governments which have arrayed themselves in rebel lion against the Federal authority. And he adds, as an additional reason, that the lines proposed trom great national bounda ries, which, for all time to come, would jections to the proposition—the former; snch a territory by military power. And’* receiving such e large accession of rich,can such a work, accomplished by such and populous territory, and little Dela-i means, be made to agree with Republican ware being also enlarged into something like a respectable size. The only condi tion precedent which Mr. t'ameron seeks to have imposed upon Maryland is, that, in exchange for this boon,she should con sent to modify her constitution so as to limit the basis of her representation to her white population. Iu other words, she must forego her claim to have her slave population rated on the three-fifth basis. That is a slight concession to ask—a con cession which, in fact. Western Virginia had all but wrung trom Eastern Virginia and the dispute about which was one of the ogreat causes of contention between tbe two sections of the State. The wonderful change of sentiment that has taken place in Maryland since April last, and her present attitude of loyalty, furnish proof that she can safely be calculated to do her share in this mat ter. The message which the Governor of Maryland sent yesterday to the Legisla ture is instructive on the score of her po sition. The Governor takes the ground boldly’ and squarely t!.at tho rebellion must be put dowu, no matter at wliat just, and that tbe State must, bear Iter full share ofthe burden of doing so. He ur ges the immediate raising and equipping of the State quota of volunteers for the war, and the payment of her portion of the national tax. In other words, Mary land places herself, so far as the position of her Governor can do so, on as high a standpoint of loyalty asany r free State of the North. (if course the position of the Secretary of \\ ar assumes no practical positions un less Congress shall take it up and act upon it. If C ongress do so, the proposition may undergo many important changes and modifications. It will give rise, if taken up at ail, to very’ grave and important discussions. We have no doubt that the proposition, iu its general features, com mends itself to the sanction and approval ofthe community at large, as the best and fittest measure of retributive justice that can be inflicted on a lcbellious communi ty. In that view there will be few loyal men that will regret its consummation. Camp Sntilin, nrar Wuyncvillr, Wayne county Georgia. December 21st 1861 Eds. Federal Union.

The forward Movement said to have begun—The Cincinnati Commercial says that tbe grand forward movement tor a winter campaign, as contemplated by Gun McClellan, has actually begun, and for proof refers to tbe advance of Gen. Buell's array (6,1,000) strong) to Green river. It adds : That a general advance is in progress, is further indicated by the marching from Louisville, on Monday, ot the 2d, 31st, 24th, 6th, 9th. loth, 2tsf., aud 33d Ohio regiments Gen McCleliau’s plan is well understood to be that a simultaneous ad-1 serve to mark the limits of these States, vance shall take place-on tho Mississippi, against The rea j mot iv 0 which has induced the Columbus, Kentucky; in central Kentucky, upon Bowling Green ; from Romney, upon Winchester; from the Potomac into eastern Virginia ; from For tress Monroe upon Yorktowu or Norfolk ; and that Butler’s, Burnside’s, and Shi rman's coast expedi tious shall iiu.ko demonstrations at the same time. If this be the caso—aud we do n..t profess to have other official or semi official information—move- m 'its at all important points may be expected when one takes place ; aud the forward movement in Kentucky is tiie signal of a general advance. Iu addition to the above, we have the following, from the Chicago Journal of Tuesday evening: We learn that Capt. Paulding, who has charge of the recruiting service of the Northwest, with his headquarters in Chicago, received orders last night (hat d -feat, and only defeat, has attended the Fed eral Army, ill all of its encounters with the Con federal-* on land. Let the South possess its son* in patience, after this.. Even Bull Run was called a Federal Victory ; and now we have the a th'ority of a Federal member of Cotigtess for saying that the bi.ttc of Belmont, where we fought against great oods, was a Confederate victory ! The truth wil. ,eak out after awhile. DEATH OF A VIRGINIAN. Riehmtnd. Dec 2‘>.—Hon Francis E. Rives, of P :i sbu g, Va., died here to-day. LATE FROM THE NORTH. tage to holders and intended speculators. The fact that the Bermuda arrived with cotton is due solely to the circumstance that site took out an immense cargo ot clothing, arms, and ammunition to the Confederates—articles in which the Southerners stand iu very great need. Jn consequence of j co-operatiou movement at that point. It thiuks it point to-morrow morning, command ofthe gun boat Essex iu the river expe dition. The Captain is a nephew of the distin guished Commodore Paulding. This sudden i t- d*-r to Capt. Paulding, taken in connection with the fact that the Western naval flag officer has, within a day or two, transferred his headquarters from tst. Louis to < airo, would seem to indicate bu siness. The St. Louis Democrat sees no indications of a their service to the Confederates, the owners and Captain of the Bermuda were given gratuitously the whole of the cotton they brought to Havre It was expressly intimated to them that no cotton would he allowed to go to Europe, except in ves sels which brought into Southern ports articles of prime necessity. In proof of this we may state that the Captain of the Helena, which arrived ar Liverpool yester day. direct from the South, was obliged to take out of his vessel no less than 25(1 baits of cotton, the j private property of the owners of tho vessel, whose R e.hmond, Dec. 26—The Baltimore Clipper, of i devotion to the Southern cause is well known and I>ec 24th. says it is asserted in Washington that j unanimously recognized, not only in America but Eng mh affairs growing out ofthe Mason and j England.

The act passed by the Legislature of Georgia, and approved bv the Governor, “to authorize the Superintendent of the W. & A Railroad, o- this State to issue change bills,” provides for the issue of $200,000 in bills of one dollar, fifty, twenty- five, ten and five cents, which bills are made re ceivable in payment of taxes and all other dues to the State, as well as dues to the railroad ; and for their redemption, the railroad, its fixtures, property and revenues, together with the faith of the State, are pledged. The bills are made redeemable in current bank notes whenever presented in sums of five dollar* and upwards, and their is*ue is to cease upon the resumption of specie payments by t be banks of the State. The So perintendent is re quired. on demand, to furnish to the Treasurer of each eonnty iu the State as much as $50 in these change bills, in exchange for current bank notes. We regard this as the very best measure that would be possible to concentrate the forces in 51 is soitri, but it has not yet been done, notwithstan- ing “almost every person, in camp or out, ia anx iously impatient for some active demonstration.” The Northera Press and the War. Wc have complete files of late North ern papers.— We make from them some interesting extracts as showing the North ern temper and spirit on the subjects of the war. We begin with the following remarkable article: [From the New York Herald.] Dismcmbo merit of rebel Virginia—the old dominion to be cut up and partitioned among loyal states— Virginia to suffer the same destiny as Poland—description of the regions proposed to be divided up, Sfc , tyc. In the report of the Secretary of War, the following strikiug, nova! and highly important proposition is made: The geographical position of the metro polis of the nation menaced by tbe rebels and required to be defended by thousands of our troops, induces me to suggest for consideration the propriety and expedien cy of a re-construction of the boundaries of the States of Delaware; Maryland and Virginia. Wisdom and true statesmanship would dictate that the seat of the nation al government, for all time to come, should be placed beyond reasonable danger of recommendation, and which will commend it to the warm approval of the whole country, is not even hinted at. It is kept sedulously out of sight. Why, we can not say. The Secretary should have strengthened the reason assigned with this one which he has not assigned, but which is, nevertheless, the all powerful one —namely, that a dismemberment of the rebel State of Virginia, and a partition ing "f her territory among States that have remained loyal to the government, is the most effective, appropriate aud memorable punishment that can be inflicted upon iter. Faithless to her Federal duties, re gardless ofthe memories of her great men, false to her own and to the national in terests, she cast her lot in with those wild, reckless, fanatical visionaries ofthe cotton States, and made her soil the battle-ground between civilization and barbarism. Hav ing done so, she deserves no sort of com- misscration. The sternest punishment that can be inflicted on her is still far too mild for her crimes. But yet that one v ltich is suggested in the report of the Secretary of War is just the one of all others that will most humble the pride of her sons, and that, will stand to all future ages beacon light to warn other States off the rocks on which she split. There are constitutional difficulties in the way of dismembering and partitioning States. The act must be acceeded to by the States concerned as well as by’ the Federal Congress. But Secretary Cam eron recognizing this, still see how it can be done without violating the constitution. He adduces precedents in the cases of Michigan and Ohio, Missouri and Iowa, where State boundaries were changed by mutual agreement, and he suggests that the same can be done here. And so it can. The new State of KaDawha will readily give its assent, receiving, as it will, the counties of Maryland and Wash ington, and having its State existence recognized and established by the gener al government. It may assume the ap pellation of the parent State, so that the once honoured name of Virginia, the moth er of statesmen and presidents, may not be effaced from the national escutch eon. It is not to be supposed that either Maryland or Delaware will interpose ob- Moiidnv af- > KfM| , ter 4:nMon- > day. ) The Orand Army of llie Fotonanr and its “Young IVapolroUo” The inactions of the army* before Wash ington must have disappointed America as it has astonished all Europe. We know not the force of that army : it may be, it probably has been, greatly* exaggerated.— It is often talked of as 180,000 or 220,000, or 250,00q men. It may be, practically, less than half of the smallest of these num bers—it may be only* 80,000. Still, to Europe, it is a new and strange sight to see an army of even 80.000 men, commanded by a young and aspiring general, lying for a whole month in a state of absolute inac tion, with the enemy* immediately in its front. The Americans are fond of imagin ing that, in General McClellan, they have found another Napoleon. But it was not after this fashion that Napoleon conducted his first campaign. When lie set forth at the head of a force of about one-half of SO,- 000 men, he said, i‘In a month 1 shall eith er be at Milan or back in Paris.” And he kept his word. “But the American army consists of new levies ” Well, and so does the army on the other side. And fully one-half of Wellington’s little army of 67,- 006 men at Waterloo consisted of English and German militia, who had never before 6eeu a battle-field. Our trans-atlantic brethren must te aware of these facts, and must feel as we have said, disappoint ed at an inaction and fruitless waste of | Mol,t R omur > money which has astonished all Europe.— But the new course which they have just adopted must lead, we suppose, to some immediate and important results A lar. licet, carrying some 20,000 soldiers, has just left New York for some port in the South—probably for New Orleans, and now, with their usual sanguine anticipa tions, wc arc assured that the Mississippi will be in the possession of the United States Government in November, and that cotton will be loading at that port for Liver pool long before Christmas. It will be nothing at all surprising if the former part of this anticipation should be realized.— Apparenfly the strength of the armament sent forth is far greater than the Southern Government can be prepared to resist at any single point. Hence, to hear before the second week in November that New Orleans has been bombarded and taken, need surprise no one. But it does not follow, as sanguine New Yorkers imagine, that this first suc cess will end the war. About fifty years ago England sent forth an armament, and 6eized the island of Walcheren, in the Scheldt. But, after staying there three months, the troops re-embarked and came home again, bringing with them "the Wal cheren fever.” In 1852-4 a united force of English and French landed in Sebasto pol; but many* a weary month passed over, and fully 30,l>00 men were buried in the trenches, before the whole power of Eng land and France could obtaiu possession of so much as one-half of the beleagur- ed town. In 1812 the French marched, almost unopposed, into the aucient capi tal of Russia; but, after staying there two or three months; they were glad enough to decamp, and did not succeed in carrying back even one fourth of their ar my into Poland. So wise was the warn ing given of old, “Let not him who is only putting on his armour boast as if he were putting it off.” The expedition to New Orleans will succeed, fully and finally, if the Southern Confederates are not thor oughly in earnest, but nothing else. All that wo can clearly see is, that if the Southern States are really in earnest, it is impossible for the North to obtain any success worth having. Ten millions of people may be kept in subjection by twen ty millions; but the task of keeping them down is a terrible one. and “the game is not worth the candle.” As Mr Smith O’ Brien remarked tbe other day, “the South ern States occupy a territory larger than the continent of Europe,” and it woald re quire an army of 500,000 men to hold JANUARY.
