Salt IS an article OF such primary importance.
and has been the subject Of so much commotion
of late, that we are glad to see such evidences Of
Louisiana independence in the premises as that
contained in the following, from the Sparta
(Bienyile PARISH SOutiera BaHney Of the Both
ult:
Salt making has commenced Unreal good earn
est in North Louisiana The only complaint is
the want Of capital 10 buy kettles and start the
works upon an extensive scale. So far there has
not been much disposition on the part Of the
owners to raise the figures above one dollar per
bUshel. There is a plenty of salt water in this
region Of country to supply al North Louisiana
and South Arkansas. a large number Of our
citizens have gone to Lake BisteueaU, and with
such kettles as they have are making their own
salt, and that at the rate Of one hundred and
fifty or two hundred bushels per day. With
proper works, five hundred bushels could be
made per day. brakes Old salt works I'M their
pslmv DAYS, turned out three hundred bushels
per day, aud the supply Of water was not eN-
hausted. In this parish, Baborn.s works fur
uish an abundant supply of water TO make one
hundred bushels per day, and by sinking other
wells the supply might be increased fifty per
cent. At Kings the supply of water could be
increased TO a sufficient quantity to make fifty
bushels per day. The only drawback is the
want of kettles. Spectators will have to look
sharp, OF they NAV take less than ten dollars per
sack for their salt The resources of North
Louisiana may be developed to their sorrow.

Unity and Strength Of the south.

Russell, Of the London Times, discourses as
follows in one Of his late letters written from
Washington city. He is evidently opening his
eyes to a few facts long since manifest to every
one else besides himself possessed of two ideas
above an oyster:
If, as l an assured by the Baltimore papers.
the great bulk Of the people Of Maryland, par
tcUlaIly Of the landed gentry, are strong Union
lists, and it nevertheless requires martial law.
Gen. Dix, Federal Hill, Fort McHenry, fortified
camps, and some $4,000 men TO keep down the
miserable minority of Se-cessionists-if their
violence is so great that in order to keep them
from walking Maryland out Of the Union. it is
absolutely necessary to break up the Legisla-
tuTe by armed force, and commit the members
of 1t to prison without a chance OF appealing to
a JuTy-What, / ask, must be done with the

sacrifices, their resolution, as examples to be

time when England was % be suffering the
EXTREMIST paugs of want from the exclusion Of
cotton draws nigh, without any exhibition Of
the dangerous symptoms, the North reuews its
iuTectiye against cur neutrality and the South
r%eiterates its assurances that France and Great
Britain must recognize the Confederation.
Tobacco is the crop of the French throne as
cotton is the base of the English monarchy. But
cotton has a good deal to say to the destinies Of
the Bonaparte dynasty also. It is largely used,
not only in the factories of Rouen and the valley
Of the Seine, and at Mulhouse, but it is essential
to the manufacture of numerous fabrics mixed
with silk made by the dangerous people who live
in that terrible city Of Lyons. VI. Belmont.

beyond the personal question there is a real con
victiOn that France must have tobacco and cotton

LONG ann sHoRr RANGE GUNS.

Tn Chicago Tribune, Of a late date, makes
the following observation
We are glad TO chronicle, as an evidence Of re-
.uruinE reason. the fact that several Ohio regi-
ueuts have voluntarily asked that the rifles they
now have be exchanged for smooth-bore muskcts
of late pattern. Col Stanley Matthews, of the
1fst Ono. IN service iu Kentucky. in making
the request On behalf Of his regiment, expresses
10 as his firm belief that the musket, loaded with
buckshot and ball cartridge, is a more effective
arm than the rife. The same doctrine will be
cOuOborated by the best military experience,
and rife regiments and brig1fcs ofsharpsho0ters
VIII be improved by a return OF many Of their
members 20 an arm they can handle, and which
is. par excellence, the weapon of iutantTy-the
muskat and bayOnet.
We think that too high an appreciation has
been placed by our soldiers upon the efHca-
cy Of loug-range rifles. Many who are armed
with tie common double-barTeled shot-guns-the
bastpossible weapon for close fgbung-m4ui-
fest a great lack Of confidence IN them. Even
the musket is uotTegar5ed as very desirable, the
mania being for the rife. This is a great mis-
take. L0ng-range guns, IN the hands Of an cx-
perianced sharp-shooter, may pick of a score or
two of men, on occasions doing good execution,
but the close work Of the bayone., the moving
cage Of muskaty, and tie deadly voIey from
h shotgun, ere what tell most dos-uctiveiy on
the enemys columns. Troops armed with In
field and sharp patent Hlss, have no incen-
tive 70 cold steel quarters ia close encounter and
the value Of the beyouet Is not really obtained
It Is said, indeed, tLatls Emperor NAPOLEON
in hs Italian campaign had but few rifles ia the
g-and army Of 900, oa0. and these were scattered
anoug al the squads, one laeman TO each. lie
relied upon tie bayonet and he even required
TIE troops that were TO rush 20 the charge to dip
tr.r muskets Ia water, chat they might not be
savieeable in any o-ler way than in thrusts Of
cid steel
twill be well Tor our men to keep these facts
nm-nd. The Yankees have shown a nervous
disposition 90 fight at long .aa, and shun
cold steel oil through ls war. hi the opening
Of tie next campaign, let us iuaugurate a new
policy, and fesi thon on this kind Of diet alto
getLer.
