Address “CHICAGO TRIBUNE,” Chicago, EL Chicago tribune. MONDAY, DECEMBER 39,1882. THE K2WS. Our budget is of unusual interest this morning. Gen. Banks has entered upon* Ms work nt If ew Orleans. The Pirate Seznznes has overhauled the steamer Ariel, outward bound, aud taken therefrom $12,000 in specie belonging to Ms own friends. The steamier was releas-- ed under $238,000 bonds, payable when O. S. A. is recognised, at which time the Federal Government may as well be on the look out for Semmes’ pile from this source. It will be seen that th£ authorities at Martmigue gave “aid and comfort” to the pirate. The rebel operations in Central and ‘Western Kentucky seem to be gaining head and to threaten the communications of Grant and Rosecrans, especially the latter. The raids of Forrest’s cavalry upon the Mobile and Ohio road have been in a measure arrested, and we hope to hear in a few days that railroad communication with Grant’s army is uninterrupted. In our St Paul special dispatch will he found an account of the hanging of thirty eight of the thirty-nine condemned Tndfanci at Mankato, Minn., on Friday last Our dispatches from "Washington show that Buma.de has yet an active enemy to deal with, and our private advices give us assurance that he wDI actively deal with them. Another little surprise party took place for our outposts on the Occoquan on Saturday. •' GEN. BANKS HEARD VBO3T. The best preserved secret of the Govern- is meat, since the war commenced, is out at n last, and the first authentic Intelligence of ti the destination of' Gen. Banks comes to h hand in dispatches that announce him n landed and at work. As we have more it than once foreshadowed in these columns, ti Gen. Banks takes the reins from Gen. But- u ler, and with an army seventy thousand strong mil carry on the work of restora tion mid repossession on the firm founda tion laid hy his predecessor in the Gulf Department. He will cany fire and sword through the Golf States, and apply the heroic remedy to the mal- 1 g ady of treason in that hot bed of the Slave Power. Hever fear hut the army of the Rappahannock will feel the “fire in the | rear 11 when Gen. Banks carries the Presi- j * dent’s Proclamation through the very \ heart of Secesaaa. By the first day of i ( TVTflrrlij Gen. Banks will have one hundred ■ ] regiments of contrabands, armed and hid- • i den to fight for thST S>6rty. The! , thorough work of this war is about to ; . begin, and with this coming week. j . XHE TTAS XN KENtFcKT. | It is now three months since Rosecrans i -went to Kashville. Not to speak lightly j of the actual difficulties that have lain in his Troy, we must say that we are reminded of the farm laborer who called to his em ployer to “fetch on your potatoes if you want them dug.” There has heen allheral 1 ■ amount of calling for rebels to come to j Nashville to he whipped, hut they have! not come, and haying nothing to employ 1 them in front, seem disposed to | . c onie xpwffi- to the. rear and. interfere-; with Eosecrans’ - expensive hoarding j establishment for Union troops who are i destroying commissaiy stores and nothing ; more. If this is not a picture, who will ■ paint a better, one ? If anything has heen j gained in Tennessee, who win help ns to . see it? It is not,that a fewscunying guer- j ilia parlies are at their old work in Ken- . tncky,hutthe evidences that are thicken ing that the rebels are able to spare a large force from the front to carry the war into Kentucky. Eosecrans in Buell’s shoes has done nothing, judged hy the President’s confession of the people’s sole criterion— “military success.” Under him the War in Tennessee has again become the "War in Kentucky. ■ GEN. BUTLEB. With the opening of May a Federal force, under the command of Gen. Butler,; was in possession of New Orleans, to which rebel stronghold the way was open-' ed by the bombardment of the forts below, i on April 28th, Gen. Butler found the city j steeped to the eyes in the rebellion. To J he an Unionist before his arrival was death,! and for a time after his coming the only • measure of the indignities heaped upon! wearers of the Federal uniform, was the ‘ daring of the male and female traitors I that flaunted and gloried in their shame. Gen. Butler put an end to this exhibition • with a promptness and ' rigor that spared neither class, nor rank, : nor sex, from punishment adjusted to therr • deserts. He purified the very atmosphere « of New Orleans, andmade for the flag and ( symbols of the Union a silent reception \ where respect was denied. In all this he i did not court the favor of the rebels, made . no friends with them in junketings and j festivities, held a firm military ran over - that community, fed its poor, reopened the \ choked sluices of its prosperity, and sur-. renders his post to a successor of similar I views, who will carry on the work t so well begun. For all this, Gen. Butler | has the best of all testimonials to be paid ! such services—the wholesome dread of the enemies of the country, the hatred of the big and little tools of the rebellion, from the home organs of Jeff. Davis to their * faithful copyists—the Chicago Times, the New York World, and a baker’s dozen of lesser sheets busied in the purposes of the traitors. Gen. Butleris on his way to New T-oife. The country has other use for him. It might he & good Idea to give him the department of the North, aud let him fall at work upon our own home traitors. X WESLEY GREENE AGAIN. There are evidences that the distinguish ed emissary from Jeff. Davis to the Chica go 2? mes has got hack to Richmond, whither he probably took hack with him the rough draft of the extraordinary docu ment which now appears in our dispatches. It sounds like J. Wesley Greene, and.it reads indeed like Jeff. Davis, while those who ate at all familiar with the style of the secesh Times will confess the striking re- semblance, nay, the very identity of the points and arguments made to those that i; pure and loyal sheet has not ceaded from ’ uttering these months past But, then, these knaves are all busy at the same nc ijiiions business, and a community of in terest begets a family resemblance of ex pression. This Elimination against Butler la the cur snapping at the heels of the retiring lion. The knave knew that Banks has succeeded Butler, and ibis small roar is intended for empty air and nothing more. 7. As for Butler, let none of these traitors deem that they have done .with him. Every word'written of him by such traitor ous sheets as the Times is another line added to ins passport that be is doing his * •doty in punishing the enemies of bis coun try. Let none of these traitors believe -that they are free from Butler, whom the Times has called Haynau. Ifchenhe leaves Eew Orleans it. will be for some other place where traitors are to be seized with a rough band. He maybe needed West, ■ wberethetools of Jeff Davis are backing snd carving away at the bonds that tie -VJ: VOLUME XY. West to East. The Times man may him self see this Butter yet in judgment nj>on his own foul case of treason. ' As for Jeff. Davis 1 proclamation, the world will live to laugh .t ite impudence and impotence what time the rebellion shall bo numbered with unaccomplished mimes against Humanity. It will stand as a proof that Butler served his country by using his strength against her enemies. By tins he will be remembered when stick in-tbe-mud generals are long forgotten. AND TEX THREE BATS.

Stewart, has : Iso. 15 assigned to it instead of IG, and will | hereafter be known as the 15th Illinois cav ! aliy. This regiment has just been organized | Col. Stcwartwasforsomc time in command of ; a batallion, consisting of 5 companies known j as Stewart's battallion. Permission was - given him to increase his command 1 to a regiment. He has recruited one com pany here making six full companies. There i are six cavalry companies lying around loose i but all serving in the West, these companies | have just been assigned to and now constitute a part of this regiment. They are as follows: Capt Ford’s company of Ottawa, formerly at tached to the 63d infantry; Capt. Willis’ for merly Capt. Jcnks, and Capt. Shearer for merly Capt Smith of Kane county,'and for merly attached to the 86th inf in try. Capt. Huntley of Winnebago county, Capt. Wilder, Independent Kane county cavalry, and Capt Gilbert of Elgin, and formerly attached to the i 52dinfantry. i The field and staff officers as appointed arc: I Warren Stewart, CoL, rank Dec. 25,1562; G. | W.

Halleck’s Headquarters in St Louis, and did not go East when the 12th cavalry did, this company being detached from the 12th cavalry and assigned to the 15th, the McClellan dragoons, princi pally from Chicago, two companies on the Rappahannock have been assigned to the 12th. This arrangement puts all Illinois cavalry companies in regimental organization and it is believed their own interests and the public service will be promoted thereby. fbom dbsmobxs.

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Cairo, Dec, 27,1382. I have just seen two gentlemen who left Jackson last Saturday, and have been since then getting to Cairo. Two trains left Jack son on Saturday, at 1 p. m., one carrying two companies of the X26th Illinois and part of the 7th Tennessee, all under the command of Cob Rodgers of the 7th Tennessee. The other was a regular passenger train. They proceeded up the road eighteen milesj and within three miles of Humboldt, where they reached a bridge guarded by two companies of the 106 th Illinois, commanded by Capt. Hartz, about 120 men in all. They had been attacked hy SGO rebel cavalry with two pieces of artillery, and had held them at bay two hours. "When the train came up, the rebels fired four or five shots at it, two of strikiugthe locomotive, hut hut not seriously injuring it. The men on the train returned the fire and the rebels fed. The train then hacked down to the first station. There they found that two compa nies of rebels, with one cannon, had tom up the track, and burned a small bridge. The train then went up to the firstbridge, took on the two companies,- and by repairing two bridges got through to Humboldt. The reb els had already burned the station house and other property. By Monday morning the 89th Ohio and one other regiment and a bat tciy had arrived from Jackson there,and went to work, andhy "Wednesday evening had re paired the bridges to Trenton, so that the train could pass over, Thursday. The rebels destroyed two bridges and about two miles of .trestle work on Obion River bottom. My in formants saw about two rebel regiments at tins work and came near being caught by them.*’ In places the telegraph poles are cut down for miles together, and wire , broken up. In some places the rails have been piled on the track and burned, thus bending and destroy ing the iron rails. Our informant came from three miles this side of Kenton, yesterday. They saw no. rebels. Forrest’s headquarters have been at Middlebarg, six miles east of Crockett’sStation, for several days. He has about 6,000 cavalry and no infantry, as has bear reported. An officer came through to day, who says trains ran from Jackson to .Trenton, and that 7,000 troops are now at '■TV(totOn. -' No arrival from Memphis. * —• CAino, December 37.—Persons havereaehcd Columbus, Ky., who report that Jackson has not been taken- Grand Junction also -was Btill in Federal hands. It is reported that Van Dom’s rebel com mand bad come north of the Memphis and Charleston railroad; also that Grant had fallen back north of the Tallahatchie. I give this as rtrraor only. ’ , _ , Van Dorn and his men have burned, it is said, 3,000 bales of cotton, or nearly $1,500,- 000-worth. _ Forrest’s rebel force is 7,000 strong—s,ooo cavalry and 2,i ! 00 mounted men. armed with Colt’s revolving rifles. They have ten pieces of artillery. Instead of attacking Columbus it would ap pear they Lave passed down behind Hickman. A gunboat and two tnmsportsports went down from Columbus to-day. After passing Hickman tbe gunboat shelled the shore on the Tennessee side, and it is reported here that an order has been given to spike the guns at Island No. 10, blow up_ the magazine and evacuate the place. This is doubtful. Caibo, Dec. 27.—From Dr. Reed, of St. Louis, who has just reached this place from Jackson, Tennessee, Xhave these particulars: The rebel force is 0,000 strong under Forrest. Cheatham is not with them, nor has he been. The cavalry has ho infantry support. A great many bridges have been destroyed, but me greatest damage Is in the Obion river bottom, where two long bridges have been destroyed, and about two miler of trestle work at Middleburg, four miles east of Crock ett station. Dr. Reed and three companions came from three miles this side of Kenton Testerday, and Saw no rebels. No recouuoissance has yet been made from Columbus. These desperadoes seem pretty much at home, and niaiiifct no anxiety about getting away. For the time being our forces seem utterly paralyzed. FROM WISCONSIN.

Brigadier General Elliott, commanding the Northwestern Department, at Madison, issues an order to-day prohibiting Captains or Colo nels from furloughing men, and any man ac cepting such furlough •will be considered a de serter and forfeit all pay and allowance; also subjects himself to the penalty award ed by law to such offenders. No plea of sickness, or other cause, not ' officially established, and no certificate of a physician in civil life, unless it be approved by some officer acting as military commander will hereafter avail to remove a charge of de sertion, or procure arrears of pay, when a soldier has been mustered as absent from his regiment. Two or three days since a soldier belonging to the 27th regiment ■was nm over hy the cars' near Kacine and injured so that he died soon after. He was attempting to get on the cars, and fell so that the wheels passed over him. A man giving his name as John Miller, from. Chicago, who laid hired out as a substitute in the 27th Regiment, tv as arrested this morn ing at the Second Ward Bank, for forgery. He forged the name of Capt. Trowbridge to some muster-in papers, on which he attempted to draw $l4O at the Second Ward Bank. He forged a pass, also, to get out of camp, and is therefore a deserter. He will probably be re turned to camp and treated as such. A soldier belonging to Camp Washburn was brutally stabbed on Thursday night, by some persons unknown, who succeeded in making their escape.

CAPTURES THE STEAMSHIP ARIEL RELEASESHER UNDER $328,000 BONDS. THE ARTRT. ARRIVES AT NEW YORK. Sa*’ FAaxcisco, 'Dec. 27.—The steamer Constitution has arrived from Panama. She reports that the steamship Ariel was captured on the 7th by the Pirure Alabama, and detained tall the 10th, when she was allowed to proceed towards Aspinwall upon giving bonds in tbe sum of £228,000. The arms and ammunition were taken from 120 marines on board, who were paroled. There is anxiety here, lest the Ariel be cap* tured on her return trip to New York, and the treasure taken from. her. The Ariel’s passengers spoke in high terms of the cour tesy shown them by Scmmes. The Ariel wae captured near the east end of Cuba. The only plunder secured by the Ala bama was SB,OOO in green backs, belonging to "Wells, Fargo & Co. The Alabama last called at Martinique. When leaving that port the United States war steamer San Jacinto aimed a gun at her, and simultaneously the fort in the harbor trained tbeir guns on the San Ja cinto. This is the statement of Scmmes. The Lieutenant of the Alabama claims a speed under twenty-five pounds of steam of sixteen knots. She was overtaking the Ariel with only eleven pounds of steam. She fired two gunswhen the latter hove to. Scmmes first intended burning the Ariel and putting the passengers ashore at a little settlement of huts ou San Domingo Island. Capt. Jones protested against this, declaring that half of the passengers would die In con sequence. Scmmes then proposed to land them at Kingston, but after much parleying an arrangement was effected to release the steamer on her giving bonds payable thirty days after the acknowledgment of the inde : pendencc of the Confederacy. The ship Sea King which sailed fromhere for Liverpool on the 9th of September, with a cargo of wheat, was totally lost when ten days out from port. . The captain and all hands were lostcxceptthethirdmate who was picked up by the bark Eugene and carried to Peru, South America. Panama, Dec. 15.—The steamship Ariel reached Aspinwall on Friday night, the 10th inst., having been overhauled by the Alabama on the 7th inst., off Cuba, and taken to Jamaica. The Ariel was detained for two and a half days, and then releasad after her cap tors had taken out $12,000 in specie, on freight for Nicaragua, the property of two Southern men, and some boots and shoes. The officers of the Alabama also made prisoners of and disarmed Capt. Sarteri, of theU. S. N., who was coming out to take command of thcCyanne; Capt. Garland, of the Marine corps, en route for Mare Island, Cal., and some other U. S. officers, and 130 marines, and after taking all their equipments, including their side arms, released them on parole. It was at first contemplated by Semmes to bum the Ariel, but iu consideration of the number of helpless women and children aboard, he allowed her to proceed. It appears Semmes was looking out for the steamer Champion, when he fell in with the Ariel.. Before overtaking the Ariel, Capt. Semmes fired a blank-cartTOge-at heivand af terwards asbell, which struck her foremast, nearly cutting it in two. : The rainy season is pretty well over, and tbe Panama Railroad is again in good order. The French fleet has sailed for Mexico, leaving here four American and two British ships of war. At Aspinwall there is only the disabled brig Bairibridge to protect American interests. New York.

It is over a column long. Gen. Bntler and all Ms officers are to be hung, if taken. All soldiers taken prisoners are to be paroled. Negroes found with arms arc to be immediately hung. Federal*officers found *with slaves are also to be hung. Darts declares Butler a felon, deserving capital punishment, and orders that he no longer be considered or treated as a public enemy, but as an outlaw and a common ene my of mankind, and when captured, the offi cer capturing him, will instantly hang hint;' Also, that no commissioned United States officer taken shall be released on parole be fore exchanged, until Butler shall have met punishment for his crimes-, and that all com missioned officers in the command of Butler be declared not entitled to be considered as soldiers engaged in honorable warfare, but robbers ondTcriminals, deserving death, and that each ol them, whenever captured, be re served for execution. The. proclamation is" dated Richmond, De cember 23d. New’ Yobs’. Dec. 27.—The following are Darts’ allegations against General Butler: Peaceful and aged citizens, unresisting cap tives,and non-combatants, have been confined at hard labor with chains attached to their limbs, and are still so held in dungeons and fortresses. Others have been submitted to a like degrading punishment for selling medi cine to sick soldiers of the Confederacy. Sol diers of the United States have been invited and encouraged in general orders to insult and outrage the. wives, mothers and sisters of our citizens. Helpless women have been torn from their homes and subjected to soli tary confinement, some in fortresses and prisons, and one especially on. an Island of barren sand, under a tropical sun, has been fed with loathsome rations that had been condemned as unfit for soldiers, and has been exposed to the vilest insult. Prisoners of war, who surrendered to the naval forces of the United States, on agreement that they should be released on parole, have been seized and kept in close confinement. Kepeated pretexts have been sought or invented for plundering the inhabi tvnts of the captured city, by fines levied and collected under threat of imprisoning the re cusants at hard labor, with ball and chain.- : The entire population of New Orleans have been forced to elect between starvation by confiscation of all their property, and taking an oath against their conscience to bear alle giance to the invaders of their country. Egress from the city has been refused to those whose fortitude withstood the test, and even to lone and aged women, and to helpless 'children, and idler being ejected from their homes and rob bed-of their property, they have been left to starve in the streets or subsist on charity. Slaves have been driven from plantations in the neighborhood of New Orleans, until their owners would consent to share their crops with the Commanding General, his brother, Andrew J.

Matters in Kentucky are certainly ‘looking serious, and fears are felt for the • safety of Rosecrans’ army with regard to supplies. Their stock of provisions was very low, and the destruction ot the Nashville load de- prives them of farther supplies, a&.fhe Cum berland River is not yet navigable,*;- Morgan has undoubtedly possession of Glas gow and Cave city; with five regiments of cavalry, in all about 3,000 men., Morgan met with no opposition at Cave City; which is twelve miles fromjMnnfords- ville. His men at once - commenced destrby- log the railroad, and it la reported here that they did so most effectually. Scouts from Munfordsville arrived on Saturday.with infor- matron -that Morgan was advancing on that town with the intention of destroying the railroad bridge across Green River. Great excitement prevailed at Munfords- ville, and active preparations arc making to meet them. ammunition, left Louisville on Saturday for that x>olnt. A scout who arrived tp-day from Danville, reports that Gen. Baird’s division, with eight regiments of infantry*, two of cavalry, and two batteries, left there at 4 o’clock bn Saturday morning, for a point ou the Louisville and Nashville road, to intercept Morgan. A strong force is left at and in the neighborhood of Lexington. It is Bald to he the intention enemy to try to effect a imictionwitlujft enforces un-. def Humphrey Marshall and wHo are in Eastern Kentucky, not fir from. Mt. Ster ling, for tbe purposn of occupying Leslug ton, Paris, Frankiort, and tbe Blue Grass re gion. It is also said an attempt will be made to ' prevent the Kentucky Legislature from con .vening at Frankfort, and to install tbe Pro visional Governor Hawes who is to set up the Government for the State as a member of the Southern Confederacy. Louisville papers of Saturday have particu lars of skirmishes at Glasgow, Cave City, and MunfordsTille. It would be improper to state the delaUs of movements and dispositions of our troops to meet Morgan, but they are such as to effec tually check and drive him back, We do not look for his capture at Cincinnati. The Chicago Times on Saturday stated that the Republicans of Covington, Kentucky, had appealed to Colonel Sipes, Military Com niandant, to prevent the election of the Democratic ticket on the ground of its being secession. Colonel Sipes, in a card, that -will be published to-morrow morning, says no re quest was ever made of him to prevent any : candidate from running. The report was evi | dently put forth to pave the way for the cer tain defeat that awits the Democratic ticket. At opinion meeting in Covington on Satur day evening Congressman Mcnzies, the Union' member from that district, was very bitter on the Administration, and said Kentucky had nothing to hope froin it. That the mission of Gov. Robinson and Adjutant General Finnell to Washington to prevent the issue of the emancipation proclamation was unsuccessful. It is reported that Buckner, Speaker of the House Representatives of Kentucky, had ad dressed circulars to all the Representatives asking their views on this proclamation, and that he has received replies from over two thirds, who oppose it, and it is claimed that the Legislature will not recognize the procla mation. I have this from a prominent Ken tuckian who I have reason to believe repre i eents Gov. Robinson’s views. About 5 o’clock this , evening one or two guns on the fortifications and on the gunboat Indianola boomed forth, which crcateda good deal of nneasines. Thousands flocked to the newspaper offices and to the landing, suppos ing the enemy were upon ns, but on the an nouncement being made that the firing was to raise a body drowned in the river the excite ment subsided. Louisville, Dec, 28.—John Morgan, with 2,800 men, attacked Lieut. Col. Smith at Elizabethtown yesterday, commanding 250 men in a stockade. After a severe fight, our our forces retreated to the Court House and a building' near it. Losses arc not stated and the result is not known. The city has been intensely excited all day by multitudinous ru mors of skirmishes in various proximate lo calities.

ARE READY TO FALL AT WORK. Gen. Banks’ First Order. New Toes, Dec. 38.—The Roanoke, from New Oilcans on the 18th, via Havana on the 22d, has arrived.. The news is important. The North Star, wlih Gen. Banks and staff, arrived at New Qrieaus on the 14th, leaving New.Tork oh the sth. The news. transpired the following day that Gen. Btitler was super seded and occasioned the utmost surprise among all classes, even the registered enemies were sorry to part with an officer who, at least, brought order and security to the city. On the 16th, Butler and Gen. Banks met at headquarters. Gen. Butler welcomed Banks to the Department of the Gulf, and assured liim he would find here troops who werq ready to yield cheerful obedience to every order. Gen. Banks.responded that the only plea sure he had in taking the command was in obeying an order of the Government or the United States. Gen. Butler addressed his stafi; requesting each member to-take pains to enlighten and assist their successors. He spoke in the most most generous manner of Gen.' Banks and stall. Gen. Butter’s parting address tothe troops hears date of the 15th. Alluding in eloquent terms to their successes In the field and in re storing order and quiet to New Orleans, to the feeding starving wives and children of the enemies of the Union, stating that his expe dition and command has cost the government less hy four-fifths than any oiher —speaking of the word ferewell as the only sorrowful thought he had, and commending them to their commander as worthy of his love. On the 16tb, Gen. Banks issued his orderas- - Burning the command of the Department of* the Gulf and the State of Texas, and naming his Staffs whose names are already known at the North. Another order is for all military and civil officers in the department to report to him; and still another, suspends all public sales of property on account of the United States, until further orders have been issued- Gen. Butler, accompanied by Col. J. W. Shaffer (of Freeport, DL,) CoL Turner (of Chlfcgo,) Major Strong, Major Bell, Captain Davis, Captain Kensel, and other members of Lis Staff, was to'sail on rhe22dforNewTork > Captain Clark was to remain on duty at New Orleans. Gen. Banks was pushing things with charac teristic energy. Ffty thousand troops who accompanied had landed at Baton Bonge, and the remainder of the expedition will be _sent forward as fast as they arrive. The -weather at New Orleans was fine and the health of.~the troops good. GEN. BANKS’ ORDER ASSUMING COMMAND • Headquarters of the Got.?. ) ' New' OitCEAiig, Dec. 16.15G2. f - •In obedience-to orders from the President, I have assumed command of the Department" of the Gulf, to which is added, by his special order, the State of Texas. The duty with which I am charged, requires me to assist in the restoration or the Govern ment of the United States. It is my desire to secure to the people of every class sdl the privileges and possessions and enjoyments which are consistent with public safety, and which it is.possible for a beneficent and just government to confer. In the execution of the high trust with which I am charged, I rely upon the co-opera tion and counsel of all loyal and well-disposed people, and upon the manifest interest of those dependent upon the pursuits of peace, as well as upon the support of naval and land forces. My instructions require me to treat as ene mies those who are enemies, but I shall gladlv regard as friends those who are friends. No' restrictions will be placed upon the freedom of individuals which are not impera tively demanded by the considerations of pub lic safety, but while their claims will be libe rally considered, it is due also to tbem, to state that all the rights* of the government will be unflinchingly maintained. Respectful consideration and prompt reparation will be accorded to all persons who are wronged in body or estate by those under my command. The government does not profit by the pro longation of civil contest or the private or public sufferings which attend it. Its fruits arc not equally distributed. In the disloyal States, desolation has empire on the sea and on the land. In the North the war is an abiding sorrow, but not yet a calamity. Its cities and towns are increasing in population, wealth and pow er. The refugees from the South alone com- • pensate in great paat for the terrible decima tions of battle. Thepcoplc of this department who arc disposed to stake their fortunes and their lives upon resistance to the government may wisely reflect upon the immutable condi tions which surround them. . The Valley of the Mississippi is the chosen seat of population, product and power on this continent. In a few years twenty-five millions ot people, unsurpassed in material, resources and capacity for war, will swarm upon its fer tile rivers. Those who assume to set conditions upon the exodus to the Gulf, count upon a power not given toman. The country washed by the waters of the Ohio, the Missouri and the Mississippi, can never be permanently severed. If one generation basely barters away its rights, im mortal honor will rest upon another that re deems them. Let it never be said, either,that the East and West may be separated. Thirty days’ distance from the markets of Europe may satisfy the wants of Louisiana and Ar kansas, but it will not answer fee demands of Illinois and Ohio. The Volley of the Mis sissippi will have its deltas upon the Atlantic. The physical force of the West will debouch upon its shores with a power as Irrisislible as the torrents of its mighty rivers. . Thu country cannot be permanently di vided. Ceaseless wars may drain its blood and treasure, domestic tyrants or foreign foes may grasp tbe sceptre of its power, out its destiny will remain unchanged. It will still bennited. Godbas ordained it. What avails, then, the destruction of the best government ever devised by man, the self-adjusting, self correcting constitution of the United States ? People of the Southwest why not accept the conditions imposed by the imperious ne cessities of geographical configuration and commercial supremacy, and re-establish your ancient prosperity and renown. Why not be come the founders of States which as the entrepots and depots of your own central and upper valleys may stand in the .affluence of their resources without superiors and in the privileges of the people without a peer among the nations of the earth.

Rinks, ap pear in the streets In crowds; one of them sent a challenge to Gen. Butler, who put it iu his pocket and sent the rebel word that if he desired an onset, to come on in the street or wherever else might suit him best. Gen. Corcoran with the Irish Legion had arrived below New Orleans. The Ddta has had -occasion to rebuke the lurking treason of the Picayune. A large number of speculators had arrived and may give an impulse to trade. General Banks is very busy and is in hourly consulta tion with Gen.
