SOUTHERN HOPES AND FEARS.
We have before us a late number of the
" Central Organ " the editor of which has
ji st returned to his sanctum, from a soldier
ing trip in the grand army of the Confede-
rate States, northward. The Central Organ
is published at the city of Maikiville, La.,
near New Orleans and it would seem that
the editor thereof had, in his travels, had his
olfactories regaled with the odor of a tolerably
sized mice." He has come back to his la
bors with the firm conviction that " Gov.
Moore is about as well qualified to head an
armv as a jack is to preach." He says that
" he cannot for a moment entertain the ne
cessity (!) of sending off our (their) volun
teers to defend border States, when they have
more men under arms than is required to re
pel any invasion of our Northern enemy." In
substantiation of this assertion, he gives the
comibrtinu assurance that " Virginia has
ninety thousand men under arms; that Ten
nessee has full sixty thousand volunteers," and
he adds farther, that, '-though it is true that
Kentucky has not, as yet, fully seceded from
tb Lincoln boobv Government, she has
openly avowed her determination to defend
her territorv from an invasion by a Northern
army."
One would think that these should be con
clusive arguments with Gov. Moore, and that
he would at once follow the direction of the
asune editor uf the -Central Oraan," and re
call Louisiana troops forthwith into the
limits of their own territory. Hut it would
seem that the soldier editor of the "Organ"
is not 'imposed to end his argument here. He
savs -if the bonier States are not able to de
fend their own soil they had better remain
out of the Southern Confederacy as we have
as mui h to stand up to as is necessary for one
arniv." This certainly is ingenuous and the
two prominent positions here taken by the
writer should be duly heeded both by the
people c! the border States and by Gov.
Moor-'. If the border slave States have not
as vet ound out that they will have to do
their own fighting, they are now in a fair way
to be enlightened on this point and we feel
quite sure that the Governors of all the South
ern seceding States will soon find sufficient
work for their troops on the soil of their sev
eral State. "Suppose," says the Organ, that
Linen shonid ho apprised of the fart that ice
harr
leer-.
I. r.rieid the Gulf State of 'heir Volun-
it not he an ensj matter for him to
fend ( ' et through the Gdf and demolish
. h, to, e ire can recall our soldiers."
We are inclined to think that this is the
wisest idea that has, as yet, come from seces
sion down and we are surprised that we
have no already heard of the reeall of the
Louisiana troops, and that the editor of the
"Central Organ" has not, out of regard to his
military genius, been promoted from the
ranks to the office of General-in-Chief of the
Southern forces.
From Fortkkss Monroe. The Wash
ington correspondent of the N. Y. Herald, in
a letter dated June 4th. says he learns lrom
a gentleman at Washington, who left For
tress Monroe on the afternoon of the 3d
inst.. that ju.t hotore he left the fortress a
messe-'ger ame in from the camp at Hamp
ton with the report that Colonel Allen, com
mander of the Troy (N. Y.) regiment, sent
out Monday morning, a scouting party, con
sisting of one company from his regiment, in
the direction of Fox Hill; that they were
suddenly surrounded by a body of five hun
dred rebel troops, and taken prisoners.
Vox Hill is about live miles from Colonel
Allen's camp.
The Herald correspondent further says :
..Although the message came officially from
Colonel Allen to General 15ut!er, the latter
discredited the report, upon the ground that
from all the various reports brought in by
.-pic and others, each corroborating tm- oth
er's, there could not be five hundred men
within fifteen miles of Hampton. Neverthe
less. General Butler immediately issued or
ders to Colonel Durye's regiment of Zou
aves to go in pursuit of the enemy, and re
capture the federal prisoners, if they found
any. General Butler and staff also left the
fort and proceeded to Hampton, to investi
gate the report himself, but had not returned
when our informant left."
This information remains to be substantia
ted and we give it merely "for what it is
worth

Correspondence of the Rutland Herald.
Prospect House,
Mt. Ilolyoke, Mass., June 4, 1861. J
Wishing to renew my boyhood acquaint
ance with the Herald I write from this gem
of the mountains of Massachusetts. The
Prospect House is about one thousand feet
above the Connecticut River and almost
overhangs it. Mountains in four States can
be seen, prominently among which are the
Green Mountains of my native State. The
view from Ilolyoke in point of cultivated
beauty is probably the finest in America,
as the meadows of the valley are very exten
sive anL rich, in this vicinity. I am parsing
a night and a day at the hotel here, and find
rood accommodations. There has been a
r' . e i, - -.i i, a
great variety of weather within the past 43
hours. It is highly interesting to watch the
changes from sun to shade and see through

the English and the Irish have sought a n
luge here, in this "land of the tree, and home

made to revolutionize the Government by a
few base, ignoble traitors to their country,
and the sworn enemies of all that is good, or
praise-worthy in the race they, too, have
responded as one man, to rally around the
banner of their adoptod country, and vie

Not bj the manhood alone of the tfation
has this call been answered ; for everywhere
scattered over the loyal State are to be
found their wives, daughters and sisters of
fering tbeir services as nurses, or otherwise,
as needed. They, too, are exhibiting to the
world that they have not degenerated from

Government to be overthrown, thereby to
become a 'hiss and reproach' with the na

and founders of the Republic' There can
be but one answer, and that is, that it will be
sustained. The united voice of eighteen mil
