gun is $64e. The eight inch columbiads
weigh $500 pounds; tho ten inch, 10000

pound. Forty-two Founders weigh 5000

ten inch bore weigh from $500 to $500

One ThIng Overlooked.

The abundant planting Of molasses-mak-
ing corn. Every man who made gallon
in 1860, sh Duld make % 10 1861, and the
farmer who made barrel in 1850, should
make 20 in 1861.
In every stage Of the war we should be
on our guard against disgraceful peace
To do this, we must seasonably provide
against dependence on traitors. A mere
trihe has sometimes compelled nation to
humiliating peace. If the war contin-
ues, Southern trade must cease, and the
West Indies cannot supply Europe aud 90
100000 of Americans in groceries. The
prospect Of long war increases. We msy
persuade our spoilt children and wives to
change cotton for flannel, but we cannot
persuade them to give up sweet--that they
must and will have.
l see no reason why, before many
months, there should not be great rise in
sugar and molasses, so that the growers of
these articles will not only do their duty TO
the stars and stripes but realize a rich
profit to themselves. Unless we can as
easily lay aside sweet as our grand parents
did tea, it would favor the cause of liberty
to have, till the first of June, as many
stumpers in the field as we had during the
Presidential canvass, to urge up all farmers
to raise enough Chinese cane to sweeten
the loyal States.

more States will be in the Confederacy
early in June. Clingman is here from Fort

from Kentucky aud Missouri. Russell, cor

night, fully convinced Of the permsnency
and military resources Of the Government
Of the Confederate States.

YELLow FEvER YEAR.-It is e histori-

malignant type, and, as if the Lord wished
to punish the traitors Of that city, this is the

pearance.

As the matter now stands, It Is plain thal
the St, Louis Chnmbcr Of Commerce wilt
consult the;r own dignity and honor by
quietly dropping this warfare ogainst the
Rock Island bridge. Tho two or three
gre7t rai1wny lines between tho Atlantic
and the Pacific will very soon require the
bridging OF oil the rivers Of the continent
that cross their pathway, Before the year
1870 St. Louis herself will find it absolutely
necessary to bridge the Mississippi at her
own door. Indeed, in onr Judgment, her
commerce requires 1t now. Then why
continue to rex the Rock Island Bridge
Company with useless and expensive law
suits, and foster 4 spirit in the lawless TINT
would apply tho torch Of the incendiary 10
one Of the noblest structures in the Union ?
"A bridge that Is essential to the commerce
Of two great States and which must soon
become national necessity. Le. Us MI
drop this vexcd question where it il, and
conccdc the right Of tho great highway Of
commerce to bridge all tho rivera Of the
continent.
