A great deal of simulated indignation

of that niodealy and reaerve with which wo*

Is tltete any father who would wish to see

and iiiaultiug those in whose power fate has

act, should a Isily, or woman with Federal

]■* it not better, is it not more consonant

thus vindicate her sex train unworthy sus

Mattkiih in Mkmchih.— A correspondent
of tlie Si. Lnnis Republican, writing from
Memphis, June 18(h, p:
No city could bi inure quiet, yet ever
since it* occupation rebel epic* hu»e roam

whatappear*cowardly Uiiionloniein a touch

Monster Units for the New Monitor* and
Iron Plated War Ships.
The Pittsburg Chronicle, or Juue 16th,
MJ»: The Fort Pin Work, in this city
Imre received an order from the Govern,
tnent for the constructi >n of a new clan of
heavy glint, intended for the iron plated
vessel* now in course of completion at New
York and elsew here. Hitherto, eleven-iuch
Kims have hern the largest used in the
navy, hut the present order calls for a ntim
tier of flftven-tuch Dahlgteen’s, designed tc
suit the tiinel* of such vessels as the Mon
itor, of which there are several now build
ing.
The length of each of these new gun* it
thirteen feet live inches; depth of bore n
hundred and thirty inches;dinuieler ol bort
II1 1 veil inches; greatest diameter 48 inches;
diameter at the muzzle in the t ough, thirty
eight inches. The muzzle, however, is to
in* tut tied elf to twenty six ami a hall inches
and from tlu nce taper up to nothing at the
base line (u line struck through at the base
of the cylindrical bore). The thickness of
the metal outside of the bore at the base
line will he sixteen and a hall inches; from
this line to the outside of the circle it will
he twenty.four inches. A amall tapering
gas chamber will Ik* formed la-bind the bore
at the base line, a hole one tilth ol an inch
will lie drilled one inch hack from the cen
ter. then carried straight to the top fot miner
the rent.
These guns, when finished, will not only
be the largest, lint the best and most beau
tiful navy guns in the world. They are
not to lie cast solid, as has been tisuul with
navy gnus heretofore, bill will be casi hol
low and cooled upon Captain Rodman's
principle. It would la? impossible to obtain
a good, sound, solid casting of such a size;
hence the necessity ot casting hollow. Kach
of the Monitor class of vessels, armed with
them, will lie able to burl shot weighing
four hundred and twenty live pounds, which
is nearly three time* the weight of the
toiind siiiit fired from the large.-t Armstrong
gnu yet made for lhe IJriiish navy. We
might add that two new fourteen inch guns
have lately been ca«t at the Wotks, each of
which, when finished, will weigh over 28
tons.
How the Itrbela roiiaole tltrmaelea for
the I.on* of New Orlenna.
The Northern people exult over what
they ere proud to call there-opening uf the
Mississippi. That they virtually power the
river, and can lire It for purpos e of war in
unquealionalile, but that the river is open
to their commerce, or of oilier service to
them than a* a road for iron clad vessels,
is untrue. Until the Southern Confederacy
ie deetroyed. the Mississippi cannot again
••ecoine a channel for commerce. While a
•ingle point upon itw vast extent, on either
bank, ie acceeeible to hoelile partieH, it can
convey armed verrele only, and although
they have New Orleans and the principal
stragrtic poeilion nbore if, they have not
driven tin Confederate!* from many hun
dred milee of ite shores, whence they can
atop trade and passage ai* completely at by
the gun* of Fort I’illow or Columbus.
Tli! fall of New Orleana and the conse
quent conquest of the Mississippi, was a
heavy blow to the Confederacy, and dimin
ishes its resources for supplies. Hut it is
far from lieiug irrelrieveable. The recov
ery of that river will lie as easy as its loss.
Victories in tlie North will compel the Uni
ted States to recall its troops, eveniflbe
yellow fever does not do its work, in tbe
next <50 days, so effectually as to leave none
to recall. New armies will lie formed in
the States which border that river, which
will retake New Orleans. No treaty ot
peace is possible which would leave tbe riv
er iu the hand* of the North. An effort
will be made to render the great city at its
mouth a free town, like Hamburg and Bre
men: hut it will be an indecisive war and
a drawn battle only which will render the
project possible. The people of the'Missis
sippi. country and town, are entirely Siu
them, bitterly hos'ilc to the United Slates,
and. without an exception, resolved forev
er to la- enlistment parts of the Confedera
cy. If the Confederacy lives, it will be im
possible to give that river and Its valley
anv political connection other than nature
ordains for it. Reyond the separation from
Texas and Arkansas, and the loss of tbe
cattle supply we might obtain from that
source, its present possessions by the ene
my is of no real importance In the actual
war or in the future rendition of the coun
try.—[Richmond Examiner, June 14-th.
