The New Workers have rendered Capt Wilkes the freedom of the city for capturing Messrs. Mason and Slidell. This is about as unsubstan- tial gift as we ever heard of They might have put all the freedom left in Lincolndom in a nut shell and given it to him, and then, in calculating the value of his gift, he would have had to resort to fractions.

 The Exs n ner might have added that Col. B. c. Harley and his partner are about engag- ing in the manufacture of salt in Dallas county, where they have an unlimited quantity of strong brine. Another manuactory of salt has been started on White river, and there is some talk of working the salines in Franklin county.7- Arkansas ought to supply herself and spare some to her neighbors.

Yankee Threats and Fulhllmsnts.

A danger confronted loses balt its terror.-- The people of the South, though having that confidence which able leaders, a just cause, and reliance on the God of Justice, ever give & brave people, felt natural uneasiness at the formidable preparation of the enemy. Taking the circuit, beginning on the west, 1t did appear truly formidable. First, we bad report of a large army coming from California to attack Arizona and Texas. Lane and Montgomery were to march down into the Indian country and jayhawk every one who opposed them.- Fremont or Hunter with 50,000 men were to invade northwestern Arkansas, and establish winter quarters at Fl. Smith. Another force of eight or ten thousand men was to oyerpower Col. Borland at Pocahontas, and penetrate the State in that direction. An expedition was to seize Belmont, opposite Columbu4, and f1otlla is to descend the Mississippi, while large force is 10 come from Paducah and effect a junction with the river forces at Memphis 4 strong force was to proceed against Cumberland Gap and crush ZollicoGer, while the bridge burners in East Tennessee were to destroy the roads ana rise III arms. On the OlOHlac, -hC1iflidii; with the grand army, was to engage Gen. John, ston, at the same time an attack On Transport was to be made from the Mary land shore, and by fleet sent up the river. ca the peninsula, forces were to be sent from Fortress Monroe to vanquish Magruder. On the sea coast, a pow erful armada was to attack Charleston, Savan- nah, Mobile and New Orleans, and Pensacola was to be taken. This was the programme as set forth by the federals in the large and small bills of the day. The performance thus far has miserably failed to come up to the promise.- The promised overland force dwindlcs down to two or three thousand men. Lane and Mont gomery are driven back, while Rains is march ing through Kansas. The grand Fremont Hun ter army not liking the preparations McCulloch was making, and espying the trap he had set for them, turned tail and sought for safety in St. Louis The gallant and determined stand by Col. Borland at Pocahontas, checked the advance from Ironton, and when the news of the defeat at Belmont came, the enemy conclu> ded not to try the advance just then. The it. tack on Belmont Is a matter of history, and records another failure in the programme The expedition from Paducah "did not come to time" The troops sent to drive zoliconer from Cumberland Gap, took a big scare and fled in dismay. Mcclellan, instead of boldly advanc- ing, is digging dirt in front of Manassas, but out of cannon range. Transport, though men aced. is yet intact. Magruder quietly reposcs on the peninsula The great armada, part of which was vpalsed below New Orleans, has succeeded in taking some sand ports on the Carolina and Georgia coasts, and has resolved itself into a grand piratical negro and cotton stealing expedition. Gen. Bragg still holds Pensacola.
 The month of November is past, and We are near the middle of December, yet with all the vast preparations of the LincoIuitcs, this is all they have thus far accomplished.
