LET THAT Door BE CLosED.-Tennessee has
held her second or third election on the question
of secession; and, like Virginia, though present
ing only three months ago some forty or fifty
thousand majority for the Union, Tennessee
has doubtless been carried for the JEFF. Davis
despotism by very heavy vote, at the point of
the bayonet. She stands, therefore, now like
Virginia, in the attitude Of open rebellion, and
subject to all the consequences. Accordingly
our general government should at once cut of
all those supplies from which, for months past
the rebels of Tennessee have been fed by their
neutral allies of Kentucky. AT present, we un-
derstand that by the Louisville and Nashville
Railroad immense amounts of -four, meal
BEANS beef, pork, bacon, clothing and NUM-
tons Of war are sent off from Louisville
into Tennessee, and from Tennessee to the
needy rebel Confederates Of Mississippi, Ala
bama, Georgia and South Carolina. Gen.
Scott should at once take possession of that
Louisville and Nashville Railroad, even if its
occupation may require body of fifty thousand
men. The men are ready to answer the call
and that road should at once be put under the
law OF our general blockade against the rebel

Of these expected arrivals is thirty. eieht-of

total is small; but, putting out of question the
influence Of the blockade, it is to be accounted
for by the fact that at this season of the year
there is usually but little movement towards

WAITING FOR ENGLAND TO SHOW HER HAND
One Of our morning cotemporaries, the Tri.
bune, suggests the expediency of first driving
back our Southern insurgents from Virginia
into North Carolina, before we proceed to de
mand from England a distinct answer to the
question whether sbe is for our cause of the
Union or against it. But we think that, while
we are hazarding much in trusting to the ''so-
Der second thought" of England, we have, on
the other hand nothing to lose, but everything
to gain, in bringing her to terms without loss
Of time. We hope and expect that, before the
meeting of Congress in July, the armies of JEFF
Davis will be driven out of Virginia; but, in
any event, unless the British government shall
abandon, in the interval, the threatening atti-
tude which it has assumed against us, we trust
that Congress will empower the President to
make any English tampering with our South
ern blockade, or any fayors to the privateers
of Jefferson Davis, OF any de facto recognition
of the independence of our revolted Confede.
rate States, sufficient cause for declaration
of war We have always dealt with England
heretofore as with a grasping aud unscru-
pulous Power, and always with the best re.
suits. 1t is the only way to deal with her at
this crisis. Let her know that We do not fear
her, and she will respect us; but if we hesitate
10 act che may hold our warnings in contempt.

vEATIoN AND THE RESULTS OF IT'S LABoas.-we
publish to-day the address "to the peopls Of
the United States" from the Border SIavs
State Convention, lately held at Frankfort,
Kentucky, and presided over by the Hon. John
J. Crittenden. 1t is painfal document but
exceedingly valuable, from its exposition of the
dangerous and slippery attitude of Kentucky
If this is the very best that the leading Union
men of the State have the liberty to offer us OF
the loyal States in behalf of the Union then
the sooner that the substantial Union argument
of body Of twenty or thirty thousand armed
Union men ia crossed over into Kentucky the
better will it be for that people.
Between the government of the United States
and the bogus concern of JEFF. Davis, this Ken
lucky Conservative Convention stands az O.

den and bis associates ask for an armistice-

cure to SHAREHOLDERS their legal rights and
allsy their apprehensions in regard to the
future;" or, failing in this, they ask next "a

from the people Of sill the States il which
measures Of peaceful adjustment may be de-
vised and adopted"
Compromise! Bah Talk of compromise
during storm to the angry waves of the sea
and the immovable rock against which they
are dashed aud broken to pieces; but it is too
soon to talk of compromise between our
Southern insurgents and the benignant govern

gents have robbed, insulted and driven to war.
"Voluntary Csnyeuton!" Pooh pooh! Let
the curtain be dropped over this Border State
Convention, and let detachment of the United
States forces be mai ched over into Kentucky
without further delay. She, like Maryland and
Missouri, can only be saved to the Union by
Union army sufficiently strong to encourage
her law and order and loyal people to speak
their minds freely, in open defiance of the
armed secession ruffians that surround them.

The REBEL FORCE AT HARPER's FERRY.-We
have conflicting accounts of the rebel force at
Harper's Ferry. One report puts it at seven
teen thousand strong, well equipped and pro-
vided for in every way; another report says
that with his troops weakened from short sup.
plies Of provisions, suffering from the small
pox and dysentery, and demoralized from lack
of pay and want of discipline, General john
ston is ready to evacuate his stronghold on the
appearance of anything like respectable OPP
posing force. Without troubling ourselves
much to reconcile these conflicting accounts,
we have no doubt that body OF eight or ten
thousand Union men in the rear of Harper's
Ferry, and four or Eve thousand below at the
Point of Rocks on the Maryland side, would in
two or three days, without the necessity of
firing gun, be competent to drive off the
secessionists by the simple process Of cutting
off their provisions; for up in those mountains,
and in that mountain trap at Harper's Ferry,
they have to be supplied from day to day from
the surrounding country. So we expect that
before the end Of this week the Union dag will
hs flying again over Uarper's Ferry.

The IMMORTAL LEGACY OF SENATOR DOUGLAS

Therefore it is Obviously to her interest to dis
coantenance the rebellion and not by dubious
acts and words to inspire fallacious hopes in the
Southern mind, and proloDg sanguinary con-
test, the final Issue of which must inevitably be
to restore the integrity Of the Union, and
strengthen the republican form Of government
throughout the world. If England wants to
destroy this colossal power, in order that she
may get rid of her great maritime rival, which
can boast five millions Of tons Of shipping, and
takes advantage Of our moment of apparent
weakness to make the attempt, she will fail and
its infamy-we can use no milder word-will re-
coil upon herself, both athome and abroad with
overwhelming force. The people of England
are ripe for rebellion; so are the people of Ire
land; and very little would be required to fan
the flame of popular instruction. They would
not submit to have their feelings outraged and
to be ruined by maladministration, and for the
qualification of d selfish but mistaken policy.

would be struggle in which all the passions

and combined in one common sentiment, one
common impulse in defense of right, liberty
and justice. The time is not yet gone by for
the British government to avert such a
sweeping catastrophe. The loss would not
be ours; England alone would rue the
calamity che had brought down upon her

The WHEAT CRoP.-We continue to
hear unfavorable reports of the prospects of
the wheat crop. The yield for two years
past has always been regarded as extraor.
binary, but any diminution this year occa.
sions some alarm. Some complaints have
been made of the army worm, but in no
case have the results been disastrous
enough to be justly attributed to this cause.
With regard to the effect of the drouth on
the wheat crop, we hear varying accounts.
Some tell US that the stalk is short and
slender, as compared with former years, but
that the head is still full, and we'll develop.
ed. Others say that the head as well as
the stalk is diminutive, and that the yield
will necessarily be much less than that of
last year. We presume that these conflict
ing reports may be explained by the fact
that in some localities the drouth has been
greater than in others, and that here the
wheat crop is less fourishing. There can
be but little doubt, however, that as whole
the growing crop-unless some cause now
unforeseen should arise to prevent-will be
fully up to the Western average, although
it may be less than that of Minnesota in
past years.

FIRST REa1MEsr.-In connection with

FIRST REGIMENT.-In connection with
the letter from the Rev. e. d. Neil, we ask
the attention of all the friends of our sol.
oilers to the following extract from pri-
vate letter from an officer in the First Reg
iment, dated Alexandria, July 9th:
Since we have been here. about ten per
cent. of our men (on an average) have been
unfit for duty. Our sick are very badly prov.
ded for. Hard bread, pork and beans is I'M
suitable diet for sick men, yet we have moth
ing else, except occasionally q little fresh beef
and rice.
If there is anything more done in Minnesota
in aid of our Regiment it ought to be done in
the way of raising Hospital fund which should
be placed under the control of the Chaplain or
some other good man.
We are probably the worst provided Regi.
ment in the whole service. Many of our men
have not been out for days because they had
no pants to wear.
We have not yet been paid off, which causes
dissatisfaction among the men, as many OF
them are in need of little things which they
ought to have and cannot get without money.
Contributions of money should be imme-
diately forwarded. We presume the bills
of New York and New England banks are
current in Washington.

ST. ANTHONY AND MINNEAPOLIS.

FROM OUR OWN REPORTER.
BuILDINa.--Quitea number of new build
ings are being erected on the burnt district,
in Minneapolis. Stores are huddled as thick
as mosketoes along this thoroughfare. The
enterprising grocery firm of Messrs. Kelly
& Brother, have removed into the new
building of B. F. Baker, on the corner of
First and Bridge streets. They seem to be
doing large amount OF business. Cleverer
fellows are seldom found.
CHURCH DEDICATION Catholic
Church of st. Anthony will be dedicated to
the " worship of God" on next Sabbath,
July 2lst. The services will embrace a
sermon by Bishop Grace, at half-past ten
o'clock in the morning. and there will be
service at three O'Clock in the afternoon.
The services will be highly interesting and
appropriate to the occasion. The public
are cordially invited to attend.
This church edifice is probably the larg-
est and handsomest building of the kind in
the State. Length l27 feet, breadth 81
feet, and of a corresponding height. Built
of grey stone, in the most substantial man.
ner. The front is constructed of cut stone,
surmounted by tower one hundred and
thirty-two feet in height. The style is a
semi. Gothic. The interior finish is COM
posed of black walnut, beautifully stained.
The altar is white and guided !: it is model
ed after design forwarded from Germany.
Emblematic designs characteristic of the
Catholic worship are carved in relief, the
whole presenting most appropriate and
pleasing effect on the eye. The pulpit is
fashioned after the form of an hour glass,
finely proportional and unique in design.
The pews are roomy ard comfortable and of
a capacity of seating fifteen hundred per-
sons. Considering the stringency of the
times, too much praise cannot be awarded
the energetic pastor Rev. John McDermott,
for his efforts in pressing forward the build
ing OF this large edifce.
