Southern Ports to be BIockaded


WASHINGTON, April 10. 1861.
The President has issued proclamation,
stating that an instruction against the Govern
ment OF the United States has broken out in the
States of South Carolina, Georgia. Florida,
Mississippi, Louisiana, and Texas, and the laws
of the United States for the collection Of the
revenue, cannot be effectuay ex cuted therein
coniormabiy to that provision of the Constitu-
! ton which requires duties to be uniform
| throughout the United States and further a
combination Of persons engaged in snch insur-
rection have threatened to grant pref ended let
ters of marque, to authorize the bearers thereof
To commit assaults on the lives, vessels and
property Of good citizens ofthe co. .nlry, law
fully engaged in commerce on the high seas
and in the waters OF the United States.
And whereas the President saws an Execu
tive proclamation has already been issued, re-
curing the persons engaged in these disorderly
proceedings to desist therefore calling out a
military force for the purpose of repressmg the
same, and converting, Congress in extraordinary
session, to deliberate and determine thereon.
The President, with a view 70 the same pur-
pose before mentioned, aud 20 the protection of
the pnblIc peace,an the lives and property of
its orderly citizens, pursuing their lawful occu-
pations, until Congress snail have assembled
and deliberated on the said unlawful proceed
| ings, or until the same shall have ceased, has
further seemed it advisable 10 set on foot a
BLOCKADE OF THE PORTS within
the States aforesaid, in pursuance of the laws
ofthe United States and the laws of nations, in
such cases provided.
49, For this purpose competent force will be
posted so as to prevent the entrance AMI exit
of vessels from the ports aforesaid.
If, therefore, with Il view to violate such
blockade, vessel shall attempt to leave any
of the said ports, she will be duly warned by the
commander of one Of the said biockading YES
sells, who will indorse on her register the fact
and date of such warning and if the same
vessel shall again attempt to enter or leave the
bockaded port, she will be captured, and sent
to the nearest convenient port for such proceed
ings aguinst her and her cargo as may be deem
ed advisable.

e" There is no longer room to doubt the in

War has been inaugurated by it in fit of in
sane passion, and an utter and Illuminating de-
feat has followed its first attempt at enforcing
the laws"
We clip the above choice specimen patriot
ism " from the Kenosha Democrat Of last week.
The heart that could indite or the hand that
c ould pen such base, lying stuff ought both to
be paralyzsd with shame. -" The administration
now in power" has inaugurated no war nor
suffered any defeat The evacuation of Fort
Sumter was no defeat OF the administration
The rebel army of 1000 men had been three
months erecting batteries and Certifying them
selves, inaugurated the war by opening their
II batteries on less than 100 half-starved, loyal
men. After standing their FIRE Sc hours, these
brave 100 dictated their own terms of evacua-
tion, and marched out with ten thousand times
more honor and glory than their victors will
ever win, although they have the tory editor
of the Democrat to chant peans all his life in
their praise.

Tory Falsehoods THAT tory sheet the
Kenosha Democrat, of last week, vented its
spite against the north by reducing the Iii
nois and Indiana regiments in t he Mexican war.
It says;
people have not yet forgotten that the II Ii
nois and Indiana regiments were put to igno-
minious flight by squad of "greasers." nor
that JEFF. DAVIS threw his Mississippi regi-
ments into the breach made by their cowatdice,
and turned the tide of war"
people have not forgotten that Col HARD
ING, one Of the bravest men in the Mexican
war, led the Illinois regiment, nor, that he fell
at the head of his troops on the field of Buena
Vista. On that memorable field the Illinois
regiment never wavered Notwithstanding it had
lost its commander at the first onslaught. There
is just as little truth in the charge of coward
Ice against the Indiana regiment
These base and infamous ISLANDERS against
the men who are volunteering foe the defen &C
of the Government and the supremacy of the
laws, and this Qualifications Of the leader o.
the great treason, JEFF Davis, and his southern
upholders, is characteristic of this shameless:

make his dirty work pay when he gets down
south, where it is said he intends to remove
soon. We hope he will not stay too here long

These two varieties OF the grape are
evidently growing in the public estima.
stcn: All things considered, We regard
them superior to any other varieties, for
cultivation in the Northwest. They are
hardy, Of first rate quality, and ripen
esrly,,
The New York Observer says Of tho
Concord, "When well rir encd it i, q
sweet aud delicious frui, and i. will give
crop in many localities where old va
risties will fail niue times in ten"
The Germantown Telegraph soys,
1.-THE Concord is rapidly gaining favor,
and must become popular for general
cultivation. We have 10 hesitation to
say, that while the Delaware is fruit Of
higher quality, pomolopicaily speaking,
the Concord is to be preterrd. Its size,
rapid growth, and earl y bearing, more
than make up, in our judgment, the diff.
ference in quality. Indeed there are
persons who think the Concord ahead in
I'LL respects"
Mr.. James Smith, Of Dcs Moincs, an
experienced and successful fruit grower,
says: "The Concord is the grape for this
country. My original vines, five years
in my garden stood out on the trellis last
winter without a particle Of protection,
and came out last spring sound aud bore
a heavy crop Of fruit"

Apples at the North.

Nature has not favored the tropics
with fruits to the exclusion Of colder ten.
peratures. The peach will flourish where
the orange will wither; aud tho apple
will grow round and full, where the peach
will perish. We believe that Of all the
ordinary autumn fruit, the apple, in pc
culiar varieties, will grow and ripen IN
tho smallest circles of latitude. We are
surprised that some Of our extremely
Northern friends are ling to give up
the idea Of au apple orchard on their
farms, as though the realization was IN
attsinable. Who does not know he Red
