complete nation They have the best az
riculturs-the breadstufs; monopoly of
handicrafs, q monopoly of commercial and
naval marine, and almost monopoly Of
the almighty dollar. To all these over
whelming advantages must be added one
more: superiority of numbers. Without
crossing Mason and Dixon's line they
count twenty millions Of people, and can
muster three millions of men able and will
ling to bear arms in defense of their below
ed country and its free institutions. On
the south side of the Petom &C and Ohio,
there are but eight millions of whites all
told, and four million servile enemies
watching their opportunity to threw off
the yoke that gals their necks But as
the Border slave States will be more or
less divided in their allegiance between
the stars and stripes and the rattssnake
ensign, the available strength of the rebels
cannot in any event exceed that of half
the white poplation of the South. The
other half will be divided-one portion de-
Tending the Union, and the residue with
their hands full taking care of the slaves
No special pleading or sophistry can get
round the foregoing facts. And they de-
monstrate that it is entirely within the
power of the Government and the loyal
citizens, to trample out this wicked pari-
cidal insurrectlon. Let there be no fears
or misgivings as to the final issue but let
every man do his duty, and our glorious
Union will be transmitted to our children

1.-The greatest fear now is that the sup
ply of provisions will be so small as to raise
the price to degree hard to be borne by
those who have so long been suffering in
their business. The markets are very
poorly supplied The fishermen are not
allowed to go outside the bar, and if they
were would be afraid to do SO, as they are
mostly negroes, and are not partial to the
neighborhood of powder and shet Hence
there is great scarcity of fish, which is
usually in abundance. The flesh market
is somewhat better supplied, but prices
rule high. There is hardly any game, as
those who usually shoot it have for weeks
and months been doing military duty
The troops stationed here will require
large supplies, and the back ground must
send them, or we shall be reduced to poor
fare at famine prices.

events so important crowded into so brief
a term. If it be true that slime is sentient

Let none be impatient of delay or hardness

of the week is the mobbing of our troops

were with the rebels 1t did not seem to
be preconcerted matter but resulted as
. blaze from a spark in mass Of very
combustible matter fitted to destruction
the results il wounded and dead being yet
but imperfectly known. As we go to
press there is an improbable rumour that
the rebels have taken Fort Piekens. which
will probably be contIadcted by the next
dispatch. There will probably be
some hard fighting ere long : the South
needs fuller acquaintance with the North,
and is now in way promising a thorough
introduction, after which, we trust she will
be more respectful towards US.

CoNFIDE IN THE ADMINISTRATIONS
Happily for the country the government
was never in the hands of stronger or
sounder executive than at this crisis in its
history. Intellectually and morally the
members Of the cabinet at Washington are
men entitled to general respect, and what
ever human wisdom and integrity can do
tor the national safety and honor we may
be sure will be done. There is not a weak
man among them-not one who has not the
respect and confidence of his own state and
of the country, without regard to party.
There is net doubtful man among them
not one OF ultra opiniops-not one of sus-
pected integrity or patriotism-not one
who is not ripe in experience of public af-
fairs and fully competent to the duties of
his station. The whole country should
trust in these men, holding as they do the
most difficult and responsible positions ever
held by mortals, have faith in their honest
and earnest efforts to save the country, and
sustain those efforts with approving words
and patriotic deeds.-Sprtngield Repu6H.

Suspension Of Specie Payments.

Before it adjourned, last week, the Leg
islature passed a law legalizing the sus-
pension of specie payments by the Banks
of this State until the first Of December
which we print below. Something of this
kind seemed to be necessary in view of
the financial troubles which have for some
time existed. If the Banks will now go
a step further and pledge themselves to
stand by each other so that people may be
assured that those Banks not already dis
credited are to remain good, people will
soon acquire fresh confidence and take Wis
consin currency as readily as ever. If there
are any Wildcats left among them and
it is necessary to weed them out before
entering into some such arrangement as the
one suggested, let them be eradcated by
all means and without moments delay
We see no reason now why financial matters
should not improve at once and business 60
along as smoothly as ever, provided this IS
done. The following are the provisions of
the law referred to:

We have no doubt that half million of

of the North is up; and without dispar-
agenent to the South, we may express our
firm belief that the descendants of the

heights of Abraham, answered the roll call
at Lexington, repulsed three times the

Stark at Bennington, and bore the colonial
flag from Cambridge to Yorktown, Will not
