MISSOURI AND KESN'CKY.-Upon these two
great border slave States, which have refused
to fall down and worship JEFF. Davis, the whole
weight Of this war in the valley Of the Mississippi
is now thrown. Missouri is in critical situa-
ton; but if we may rely upon our latest rumors
from Lexington, Gen. Price in his turn is be-
leaguered, and will very probably suffer the
fate of Mullgan. Fremont, who has advanced,
viii certainly lose no time in graphing with
the rebels. His force, properly handled is
strong enough to cut them up, combined or in
detail; and us he has everything at stake-name,
reputation, the safety of the State, and the
cause of the Union-we expect of him good
report Within the next three days we shall
probably have tidings of one or of several
bloody battles in Missouri; and we hope that
the news will be that the rebels have been en-
tirey routed and that the State and Fremont
have been completely redeemed.
Kentucky loyal, gallant Kentucky
having learned the meaning of secession neu-
traity, has ceased to be neutral. and is arming
and equipping herself for the fray under the
good old flag Of the Union. In gaining her
active cooperation we have closed her neutral
gates. through which the rebels have heretofore
been so abundantly supplied with articles con-
traband Of war; and we have secured, or soon
shall have secured, reinforcements of at least
fifty thousand men to the armies of the Union.
So much for Honest Abe Lincoln's disapproyal
of Gen. Fremont's emancipation proclamation.
TIE President has thus made an active ally of
Kentucky, and has gained her splendid army
materials of fifty thousand men, and has cut,
off her abundant supplies Of all kinds from the
rebel cause and turned them over to the Union
Let Fremont make good report q kimse!f
in Missouri, and Kentucky will at once be. able
to rouse up the loyal men of Tennessee, and to
reclaim that State, while yet, perhaps, the great
opposing armies are watching each other on the
hills of the Potomac. But Fremont must clear
the way. His responsibilities are great; but so
are his means and his opportunities for glo-
rious name. We hope that he may win it, and
thus prove, indeed, our pathfinder" to a glo-
rious deliverance.
