The Mississippi River.

The State of Mississippi since her secession
has placed battery at Vicksburg, command
ing the father of waters--the great inland
Mississippi. This river makes its way
Tor many hundreds Of miles through terrific
ny belonging to or bordering on the free States,
and is their great outlet to the sea. 1t is not
therefore very likely that the millions Of peo-
pie who thus use this stream will allow it to
bel-ng to foreign nation, disposed to let
them navigate it when they are friendly, az
has just been proposed by Louisiana, and
forbidden ito use when hostile. Already it
is said that most intense excitement exists
among the people who navigate this stream,
and it Is with difficulty they can be restrain
ed from making demonstration on the peo-
pie Of the State Of Mississippi. They assert
that the sire I'm being higher than the lands Of
several of the slave States, it is kept within its
present channel by meaus of the crevasse, aud
that in "a hours they can food and destroy
all the cotton and sugar plantations for many
miles in the interior and indeed entirely de-
stroy New Orleans, and this they will as
suredy do it, if things progress as they have
begun. This is very serious aspect OF af-
fairs in that section of tho country We are
all familiar with the destruction and alarm
that has been consequent upon the crevaSse
giving way in times Of high waters, what then
would be the effect of hostile force of thou

Lola suddenly turned on a full head of steam
and away dashed the en- inc alta fearful speed
to the great dismay Of the engineer.
Another time Lola was in a car, when she
pulled out one Of her favorite little cigars and
coolly lighted it. The conductor soon made
his appearance:
Madame said he, blandly. you sannol

Madame went on smoking without paying
the least attention.
Madame, repeated the conductor, little
savagely. you cant smoke here
Lola looked up at him, gave a sweet smile,
and asked:
