Comfortable Winter Quarters-A

An officer of the Third Regiment North
Carolina State troops, at Aqua Creek, Vir-
ginia, writing to a friend, describes mode
of improving the comfort of tent-life, even
IN winter, which we publish for the bene-
fit of others. He writes:

Gen. Holmes, commenced last week dig

Official Correspondence,

A correspondence is reported by the
northern press to have taken place be-
tween Lord Lyons and Seward on the
matter of the arrest of two British sub
ects. The British minister demonstrates
against such "irregular proceedings" and
says that the authority of Congress is ne
cessary to justify such procedures. Sew
ard, in reply, says that all classes of so
ciety must cheerfully acquiesce in the
measures demanded for the safety of the
whole people; and that, while the learn
ing of the legal advisers of the British
crown is not questioned, the British gov.
ernment can hardly expect that the Pres
ident will accept their explanations of the
Constitution of the United States.

From Washington.

WAsmIxGroS, Oct. lS.-Ihe uovern'
ment has ceased granting passes to &c
through the United States lines.
The following order has been issued
from the Army Headquarters:
United States soldiers taken prisoners
by the rebels having been released on
taking the oath not to take up arms a.
sainst the South, the Government orders
that an equal number of prisoners, now
confined in this city and elsewhere, be re,
leased on taking the prescribed oath ol
allegiance, or an oath not to bear arms
against the United States"
Secretary Seward has addressed com
munica,ion to the Governors Of the loya
States, intimating that the European
agents of the Confederate States may in
yolve the United States in foreign war
and urges upon the Governors to place
their coasts upon a proper state OF de
fence. lie considers that the Federal do
vernment will pay n portionable part o
the expenditures for such purposes.

The Blockade Inefficient.

We believe it was Mrs. Partington who
said that Mr.. Lincoln would never be able
to stop the Southern PORTFOLIOS with his
blockhead.
The Cincinnati Gazette, an old abolition
sheet has come to the same conclusion
1t says:
The whole history Of blockates ought
to show any general that they are a very
poor foundation for strategic policy
The idea was part of an inibecile mode OF
warfare; and all military policy that de-
pended on it and waited for it must ne
cessarily have been imbecile. This war
has got to be prosecuted, if ever prose-
cuted, by fghting-by conQuerng the re-
bells in the field and in their intrench-
ments 1t will never be brought to close
by our blockade, nor by the starvation or
nakedness of the rebels. The sooner we
admit that fact, the sooner we shall begin
the war

Wool from Texas.

The Caddo La.) Gazette, of the 10Th,
says, several wagon loads of wool have
arrived from Texas during the past week,
and will be forwarded to our southern
factories. We are pleased to see this in
valuable article so abundant in our coun-
try, and trust that an ample supply may
be procured to meet the urgent wants of
our volunteers" The same paper also
urges that every attention should be paid
to the raising Of sheep, and none should
be killed during the war. Texas alone
can produce enough wool for the Confed-
eracy, If the planters would cultivate less
cotton, and devote more time 70 their
focks. .f * rr5 fsrat Hai.,ll III.

The Northwest and Pure Yankee
u. = Land IL u.

The Evansville Qnd.) Journal, one
of the most Influential organs of the
Northwest, in an article on the repor-
ted recall of Fremont, in its issue Of
the 4th, expresses itself in this wise:
Our people already fear that the
vision of the administration is limited
by the Allegheny mountains. The
only demand for troops is TO protect
Washington from the possibility of
danger, and afford employment 10
the vast hordes patriotic artisans in
the Eastern States.
1t matters little that BeauregaYd
may frighten McClellan's 100000
men with 100000 on 10000, while
he swiftly transfers regiment after
regiment from the Potomac to the
Ohio; it matters not that our citizens
on the border are to be robbed of
their sleep by incessant alarms and
constant duty tinder arms to protect
their firesides and homes, SO that the
men they put in the field see to it that
the President is made safe in Wash.
ington, and Mrs. Lincoln is uninter4
rupted in her French studies. These
things are seen by our people. They
are thought of they are talked about.
They know that Indiana has been
drained of soldiers to protect other
intrests than her own, and as they
look in each others faces, pallid with
alarm, they cannot understand why
it is that Beauregard can transfer SO
much of his force west, while Nc.
Clellan is constantly being strength.
ened by troops sent east. Are the
first cities in the valley of the Ohio to
be blotted out of existence that Gen.
eral Mcclellan may become military
demigod? lfhis army is not in a con.
dition now to attack Beauregard's
"half starved, ragged, undisciplined
army living on salt and potatoes" in
the name Of God, when will it be?
l. Is clearly evident that troops from
Virginia are pouring into Kentucky,
and yet there is no advance from
Washington, and no indications but
that the borders of Indiana, Ohio and
Illinois are to be left to take care of
themselves. The result of this cul.
pablc indifference on the part of adj
minstration as to the fate of the ma.
ny cities, towns and villages that
beautify the valley of the Ohio, is
known only to the Supreme Being.
Our duty is to acquit ourselves like
men, Notwithstanding the neglect of
those who should protect us, and if
we are overpowercd and destroyed,
let it be after n rcsintnnco TIM, will
grow in the future hi!,tory.lot ~
