Confederate States, after most of these acts
of hostility were perpetrated, for having ad-

The Season and the situation

One third OF the month of Octoberis gone
Another month and we will be so close upon
the wintry season that prudent commanders
of armies will be thinking of winter quar-
tiers. We may have winter upon US within
six weeks. Those weeks are of inestimable
import to the country. The DAYS of our
destiny are now passing. Great blows must
be struck before winter sets in or great dis
couragement will ensue. Our army in West
ern Virginia must advance or fall back. The
troops cannot pass the winter in the midst
of the Cheat and Gauley Mountains. II they
are to advance, they must be supported by
movement on other lines. or powerful rein
fcrcements. If Eastern Virginia is to be re-
lieved, the work must not be DELAYED. 1t is
unjust. But Washington is the military and
political Capitol, and the pivot of the situa-
ton. The movements of other armies depend
greatly upon what is done by the army of the
Potomac. If there is 10 be an advance from
Washington, it must not be long delayed. for
the roads of Virginia in the winter would be
impossible by an army.
If there is not TO be an advance there, it must
take place at some other point, and a part
of the army of the Potomac can be spared
for distant service. If there is nothing to
be done on the Potomac beyond the dfence of
Washington, there is an army there that is not
wanted, and it must be shipped to the South
ern coast or sent West. The idea of keeping
the great mass of our troops at Washington,
idle during the winter. is quite intolerable.
Ii there is not forward to Richmond move
ment, there must be forward to East Tennes-
see, and forward to Nashville, and down the
Mississippi movements, and attacks by sea
upon the most important commercial cities
of the South. The necessity for action is De-
coming more pressing every day, and will
presently be imperative. The people feel
that they have done and are doing their part,
and they will demand of President and Sec
retaries and Generals, the worth of their
money and blood.

Death of DIR. Lewis shanks.

Seldom have we taken up our pen with
more melancholy feelings than we experience
in fulfilling the duty of announcing the death
of one of our oldest, most amiable, and most
respected citizens-Dr. Lewis Shanks. 1t was
stated in our paper yesterday that the Doc
tor was in dangerous condition in conse-
quence of having taken morphine, a deadly
opiate. for quinine. On Wednesday morn
ing, at O'Clock. in consequence of Illness.
he took from medicine he had in the house, q
dose from paper marked quinine,n This
drug and morphine are alike in appearance
and similar in taste. After taking the medi-
cine, the Doctor experienced symptoms which
led him to lear that it was not quinine. but
morphine he had taken. On referring to the
label, and finding it bore the word "quinine,"
he was satisfied for short time that ii was
all right, but the symptoms becoming unmis
taxable, be exclaimed: " have taken NOR
phine, and it will kill me,r Medical assist
ance was at once obtained, and during the
day, the most able medical gentlemen in the
city exerted their utmost skill. Their efforts
were in vain. The powerful narcotic had
seized too firmly the springs OF life. and at
halfpast seven O'Clock in the evening, Mem
phis had lost one of its richest possessions-a
good man.-Maaphis appeal, 1911.

they were, my friends and feliow-ciiizens of
my beloved State, gathered upon the friendly
soil of Kentucky, from the tender STRIPPING

all mourning the evil that has befallen our
land and our homes, but all seeking for arms
wherewith to go back and drive the invader
from our fields and hearihstones. (Applause.)

OF speech. Aud such were ours-two thou

Silent as q city OF the dead! But there was
no torpor there. There were the bounding
heart and throbbing brain, there were the
burning cheek and the blazing eye, all more
eloquent than ever were the utterings of hu-
man speech. [Cheersl Each of that throng

litical events which have rendered the boun-
tifal harvest nugatory, has placed us in i'm
mineniSdanger of great national calamity.
This may be averted by the termination of
the American civil war, and consequent
renewal of commercial relation with the
Continent; but the obstacle to this arrange
ment is the determination of the Northern
States to impose their rule on an unwilling
population Regarding recent events in the
'calmest spirit, il is impossible to avoid the
conclu ion that this determination must prove
disastrous; and it is question whether the

The Great Cotton Crisis Commenced
In England-.WilI it End In Ieevo-

From the London Times, Sept. 10

From the London Times, Sept. 1e
The reports from Lancashire apprise US
that the FIRST mutterings of the long expected
storm are already heard. Mills are working

wages, and operatives are assembling is trou-
BILE and alarm 10 discuss The prospects before
them. While once more discussing this mo-
mentous question we cannot omit TO observe
that since our last notice of the subject the
continuance OF the American supply has be-
come less probable than ever. Every sue
cessive mail from America makes it more
and more difficult to believe that either SEC
ton OF the Union can remain as before. The
North will make acquaintance with those
burthens of establishments and taxation which
have so long tried the Governments of the
Old World, aud the South, even if it retains
with its independence all its territorial privi-
leges, will find that its monopoly of the Eu-
ropean market has been rudely disturbed.
With all these contingencies looming d7rkIy
around US, 1t Is at least satisfaction to OBJ.
serve, both that the condition of the cotton
manufacture is favorable to our present ef-
foris, and that the operatives of Lancashire
are looking at the subject like sensible men,
The first recourse in such straits as the pres
ent is evidently to limit the rate of produc-
ton, and this, We are told, can be done, not
only without much disadvantage to the trade
but With positive gain. 1t Is said that pro-
ductiou has recently been carried too far, and
that the stocks OF manufactured goods are
everywhere in excess OF the demand. In
this case it can certainly do no harm to
slacken our pace and allow our products to
recover their value. Short time, in fact,
would be rather desirable even if our supplies
of material were in no jeopardy at ali. In
the meantime the operatives have recognized
the exigencies of the crisis by unanimous
resolutions. They demar, indee1, to the al
legged necessity for the reduction of wages,
but at large meeting of delegates at Man
chester, it was freely admitted that the pres
ent scarcity of cotton afforded a well
grounded reason" for running the mills short
time, and thus diminishing the rate OF con-
sumption. Such view OF the case speaks
well for the good sense aud the sagacity of
the men. ~ s .saF sra ,csfsl56 s-s-
