LETTER FROM JOHN BELL. - Hon. John
Bell has written letter, in reply to an in
vitation to address public meeting at Vicks-
burg, Miss, on the condition of the country.
After reviewing the state of affairs, and
making the strongest possible case against
Mr.. Lincoln, he concludes as follows
"After viewing the subject in every light
in which it can be presented, | am con-
strained to say that by no principle of pub
lie law, by no code of morals, by no law of
Earth or Heaven, would Mississippi, or any
other State, be justified, under existing cir
cunstances, in withdrawing from the Union.
confidently believe that the happiest con-
sequences would result from conference of
all the Southern States. as confidently
believe that majority of the people of the
North are this day prepared to agree to any
fair and reasonable plan of adjustment which
such a conference of the Southern States
would propose. | purposely abstain from
suggesting what, in my opinion, should be
the oasis of such plan Of adjustment.
After what have written on the prced.
ing pages of this letter, it is scarcely neces
sary to say that l am resolved to adhere tc
the Union. | will not say that in no possible
contingency would consent to separation Of
the States. But would exhaust every con
stitutional means for the redress of ou,
grievances, before I would think of dissoly
ing the Union, l am not willing that one
State should be withdrawn from the Unior
that one star should be stricken from tht
bright cluster which now emblazons the Ma
tional flag.
have long foreseen the probable occur
renee OF crisislike the present, and shrunl
from the possible issue of it; and | coule
never contemplate the destruction of th,
Union without sensations not unlike thos,
which imagine would overwh I'm me OF
beho!ding the sun, never to riseagain forever
With the highest consideration and esteem
| am your fellow citizen JOHN BELL.
10 a, Burweld., Esq, Vicksburg, Miss.

TIE "BoRDER WAR; - The latest news
from Nansas is to the effect that Montgomery
has not been at Mound City for two weeks.
Gen. Frost hai determined to station three
companies of cavalry and battery of artil,
lery at two points opposite Bourbon and
Linn counties, Kansas, to protect borderres-
idents. Gen. lIarney lad returned with the
troops to Fl. Laavenworth, and the S.. Louis
volunteer brigade was also on the way home.
The Chicago Journal, speaking of t. is
"war" excitement, says it was about as great
"sell" as has been practiced for long
time. Instead of an army of Kansas 'abo-
litionists," under Capt. Montgomery, having
driven men violently out of the Territory
and invaded Missouri with fire ard sword,
the whole thing has proved to have been
nothing but the wild fancy OF Judge Williams,
who, waking up from horrid dream one
.norning, imagi ned that an army of tiends
were after him, and ran of, ,almostfrighten
to death, till be reached the first town he
came to in Missouri, which he threw into an
fulconsternatio by reporting the destruc-
ton of Fort Scott and the S. Government
Offices, the ki!!og or expulsion Of pros slavery
men, aud the coming of the terrible Mont
gomery to make war upon tho whole State
of Missouri!
the whole excitement of the recent "bor-
der war; has this extent, no more" The
despatching of Gen. Harvey with troops by
the Federal authorities, and OF the St. Louis
volunteers by the Governor of Missouri, to
the "scsno Of the war;" and arriving there to
only discover that there was no enemy to
fight, and had been none, is the only tragic
scene in tie comedy and their marching
back, like boys sent on FOOLS errand, is q
very rich close to avery laughable burlesque.
Somebody ought to embody this ludicrous
military tr r,n-action into drama, to be en-
titled, say-"The Last War, or the Exploits

A FALsEaooD ExPosED.-The Republicans
of Independence, Iowa, have been charged
by the Locofoco press with issuing and cir
culating Wide Awake ball ticket, with the
narle of negro among the managers. The
Independence Guardian knocks the vitality
out OF this SANDER by giving proof that the
ticket in question was gotten up by the DEM
ocracy of Independence as an attempt at
witticism and burlesque against Republicans.
The SANDER is having very general ventil-
ation in the columns of Democratic papers.

The Legislature will meet at Springfield on

the organization will doubtless be effected

be devoted to the important interests of the
State which will require their attention.

TIE PRESIDENTS CoMpaoMIsE,-Bucha

THE PRESIDENTS CoMp2oMIsE.-Buchanan
proposes that the Constitution shall be
amended by the incorporation of the Breck-
inridge platform. The Republican party and
the Douglas party have just cast three-iourths
of the popular vote and two.thirds Of the
electoral vote of the United States against
that proposition. In view of this fact, nobody
but buchanan would have proposed COM
promise so utterly opposed to the convictions
of the people, and so palpably impractcable.
The Constitution sets forth the mode in
which it can be amended as follows: =
"The Congress. whenever two-.hi79s of
both houses shall deem it necessary shall
propose amendments to this Constitution, or,
on the application of the Legislatures Of two
thirds of the several States, shall call Con-
vention for proposing amendments, which, in
either case, shall be valid to all intents and
purposes, as part of this Constitution, when
ratified b. the Legislatures of three -fourths
Of the several States, or by Conventions III
three-fcurt IS thereof, as one or the other
mode of ratification may be proposed by
Congress.

and heavy outlay for coercive and defen-

ration from which she seceied. The act of
reunion was consummated on the 18th of
October.

CORN ShELLlNG. - We dropped in yester-
day at Benefits Mill, where Mr.. A. kimball is
now engaged in shelling corn with one of Bauder
& Bro machines, manufactured in Davenport.
1t is attachad to the machinery of the mill and run
by steam The corn shelter is an excellent one,
capable of sheing 1900 bushels per day (ten hours
work.) Mr.. A. charges cents per bushel for
sheling corn and guarantees weight - that Is, for
every 20 pounds of corn he will give 90 pounds
shelled. The machine has fan mill attached, and
cleans the corn perfectly. 1t will prove great
convenience to farmers as we'll as grain buyers. A
farmer can bring in his load Of corn and have it
shelled as fast as he can unload it. We hope to
see the corn shelter KEEP. constantly in motion.

RIVER CLOSED. - The ice blocked n the
river opposite this city about noon on Saturday
last. In the afternoon, several persons crossed
the river on the ice, with the aid of skil, which
they showed along with them in case of accident
Some of them broke rough and were partially
immersed, but ell got over in safety. If we have
one or two days of cold weather, it will make safe
crossing, when we may expect considerable acees-
sions to our trade from the people of Illinois.
The following statistical table will show that the
river closed this season about the average time:

content and hostility are not without cause,
and any reasonable and proper constitutional
remedies and etfectual guarantees for their
peculiar interests, as recognized by the Con-
stitution, necessary to preserve the peace and
the perpetuity of the Union, should be
promptly and cheerfully granted.

Columbus, o., last Friday. In connection with his
brother, of Leclaire he instituted the necessary
proceedings to break the will by which the heirs
of the late Jacob Hare are disnherited and his
property at Columbus bequeathed to tae city for
the use of the poor. The case may possibly be
decided in March next. The Major is quite san
gulne that it will eventuate in favor of the heirs.
We hope SO. We were mistaken last week in stat
ing the value of the property at 100000. 1t is
nearly SIS, 600.
