The Evacuation OF Ship Island.

The following sensible remarks re-
garding the cvacutiou Of Ship Island,
appeared in the Mobile News:
We are heartily glad that this eva
cuation has taken place, for we have
regarded the Notifications thrown up
at ship Island as very safe trap
in which Lincolr's feet and soldiers
could, whenever they willed it, bag
the garrison. If the works at Ship
Island commanded that pass into
it undetended, We could have seen
the benefit to be derived from risking
troops and military stores on the Is
land. AS it is, it was incurring Il
hazard without compensation. 1t
has appeared to It's as "a military pos
tulate, that the cammand of the sea
around Ship Island by the Fcderals
placed the garrison there at their
mcrcy-they having the chice of Ian

LOUISVILLE, Sept. 7, 1861.

LOU ISH LILLE, Sepl. Z, 1901.
EDITOR CHRoN1cLE-A copy Of
your valued paper Of Of 31st ult. came
to hand this T. NJ. read accounts
here and there and saw what l little
expected to see in a Northern paper
-"want Of men, to prosecute this
war. Little did l suppose, or the
kentuckians about me, that a people
like yours weuld, at this perilous
hour hesitate for one moment to lend
the aid which is so much needed at
this hour of peril. If they value
their homes their every interest dear
to them, I would tell tn I'm that they
must expect to fight. Oh! that they
would heed the warning voice of the
patriot Joseph Holt. of this State,
who told the citizens OF Boston that
if they did not rise up as one man
and meet the foe, that they would
be conquered by the Southrons.
Why, Oh why their tardiness 4?
l warn You that unless a more ear
nest policy prevail with you, the
North VIII be subjugated ; these re-
bells will conquer you; you must raj
ly! you must fight you must not
lie in dull apathy; you must grid on
the armor and go at once into the
field. l. soldier in camp Joe Holt,
a kentuckian, will be with you to
fight the battles of our country, and
l call OH you loyal men Of the Norti,
to rally. Ifyou do not come as men
and meet the foe at once they will
gain the ascendency. The rebels
are growing stronger and Increasing
their boldness every loar, and [ tell
YOU the sooner we arrest their mad
career the sooner will peace be res
tored to our country. oh! do not
stay at home and only talk Of what
you are able to do, but come to YOUR
countrv's call and show the world
what you can do to arrest this great
rebellion.
The mother who at this hour pla-
ces in the hand of her son Il sword
or musket, and tells him go, and
fight for your home; DO me honor
by doing your duty" will have a
name and fame equal to the revo-
lutionary mothers of old. Rally {!

The Neac Federal Nara1 Erpedi

The Neac Federal Naral Erpedi-
tiou-The New York papers, Of the
18th inst, have the following:
a naval expedition will sail from
New York within the coming two
weeks which will no doubt have a
most important bearing upon the
present war. It will comprise a large
feet of gunboats and transports, and
force of probably 10000 men in
cluding some which will be taken
from Fortress Monroe. The destina-
tiOn is, of course, a secret, all state
ments to the contrary notwithstand-
ing; but we can assure our readers
that if successful. of which there is
but little doubt, it will be the most
terrible and effective blow yet dealt
at the rebels.

gence. and say that in the skirmisll
alluded to, the Federal loss was one
hundred, and the Confederate loss
twenty. 1t was conjectured that the
entire force of the enemy on Cheat
Mountain, owing to their hopeless
situation, would be compelled soon to
surrender.

perior force, or of starving them out.
The only relief to the garrison, in
either case, would have to come by
water-that is, a naval relief. If we
had guns enough aAoat in the South
to protect the garrison at Ship Island
against the Federal navy, then it
could be held; bat in that case there
would be not half the necessity of
holding it. The truth is, weimagine,
that the waters of lakes and Sound
can only he adequately protected by
floating armaments, and these ought
to be built at whatever cost, in num-
bers and strength adequate to the
work to be done. Until that is
done, we do not desire to see our
brave soldiers exposed to capture on

AS the Cotton crop is always a
subject Of interest to the community
both at home and at distance, We
have the following report to make
In August, the frequent rains ana
cloudy weather caused the bottom
crop to rot badly, the weed being
very rank and interlocked in all tres!l
ground, and the sun not being abb
to pierce the shade of the rank vego-
tation. This was universally the
case in all, except very old lands,
where the stock grew to less height.
Besides the rot thus occasioned, the
boil worm on very many places duo
considerable damage. These two
causes have diminished the crop Ger
tainly one-sixth. In Septembr, the
present month, the caterpillar made ac-
tive by thea continued murky damn
weather, fell on the plant and hav,
eaten every leaf off of it, and will
now go on the young top bolls, and
this will occasion, as certainly, the
loss of another sixth, SO that, frel.
the combined causes alledged, We
can very justly and accurately put
the loss as one Of two-siXths or one
third, leaving two-thirds as the very
largest measure of the crop to be re
lied on. Some planters put 1t al a
