Nashville.

W There is y good deal Of talk about
when we will have Nashville, and peo.
pie have been awaiting for several
months to hear that the city had fallen
into Confederate possession once more.
!. We oursef have confidently believed it
would be captured or that the aboli.
TGonists would evacuate it. But these
beliefs on our part were entertained
before the retreat of Gen. Bragg from
!. Kentucky. The fact that Gen, Bragg
'shad left fortified stronghold in his
rear, although contrary to the policy of
great Generals in the past, did not
, weigh heavily with us, so certain did
we feel that Nashville would be evacu.
atcd. But instead of being evacuated
it has boon strcngthcd by all that hu-
man ingenuity can devise in the way
OF Notifications. BreastWOris, cannon,
rifle pits, stockades, barric4dGs, and
PORTFOLIOS in houses, encompass the
city, and the garrison has been largely
Increased It is our opinion the city
will not be taken this year. 1t would
involve terrible loss Of lite, for which
tho advantage Of It's possession would
not rccompense. And of what use
would Nashville be in our hands, or
what certainty could we feel that it
would be held, unless the Cumberland
and Tennessee rivers We're fortified and
ii, our possession. If by some grand
coup d'etat we could possess it, and thus
csccure prisoners and stores, it would bo
well, and if such chance presents
itself, we feel that it will be seen by
the sagacity of our leaders and con.
summatcd by their indomitablc energy
and bravery. aa
AS to the benefits that would accrue
from the possession of that city, per.
haps at this juncture it is doubtful if
any benefit at all would accrue OF
course W e desire, and to the bottom Of
our heart, that Nashville should be
freed from the grievous despotism and
loathsome presence of the vile aboli.
tionists, but unless we can free them
with some guarantee that that freedom
will not be temporary, better maintain
a position in which our army cannot
be bofunked, ,ourlines be more contracted,
and our divisions in supporting dis
tance. .'
" But, say some, we want to got the
soldiers from those counties in aboll-
ton lines. This argument is puorile.
We have already gotten most of the
mon from those counties, and what re.
main there, wouldnot be equal in num-
Der, and being mostly conscrlptS, would
not be equal in metal to the additional
force required to maintain such oxten-
ded lines of defence. Let the aboli.
tionists possess Kentucky and, portions
of Tennessee. Get them away as far
as possible from their base Of supplies,
and we weaken thom correspondlngly
: while our means Of defence are thus

and old acquQintances yesterday. Cap
tain Anthony S. Camp, formerly of the
Nashville Patriot, Lieut.. Henderson, of
the Murfreesboro News, Capt. Trainor,
and " hest of others we cannot call to

joyment of hope the brightest, and
health the tirmcst, have since fallen mar
tyrs to Southern independence. But
there are those left to avcnge their
death, and they will.

If we whip the Yankees we must whip
them as much by being the inuaded as
by the force of arms and our superior
valor. But we are running into sub
jcct8 upon which we shall write in
another paper
A noble suggestion was that of Rev.
NJ. II. Bones at the C. 2. Church, on
Sunday night, that the young ladies
and the married ladies, IN separate
bodies, hold prayer meetings for the
especial purpose of praying to God that
He be with us, and give US victory over
our enemy in the impending battle on
Tennessee soil. And an additional
prayer meeting was urged upon the
men, to be held in the week We hope
it will be done. Pray to God that the
foes who besct us may be overthrown,
and hurled back in defeat upon their
own s0ii--IhaC strehgth may DC gwen
our brave men to stand the tatgues OF
the march, the rigor Of winter and the
assault OF battle Pray Him that our
people may no mo'c bc ovcrrun by

be thwarted iii every attempt t. possess

Substitute for Salt.

A writer in the Columbia Guardian
proposes a substitute for salt for pre-.
serving meat. 1t is, he says, PyroIi.
gcnouB Acid, which is made from any
kind Of hard wood, and the quantity
of acid obtained is nearly one half tho
weight Of wood used, The writer re-
marks:
This acid has been manufactured in
the ncighborhood Of the writer on q
small scale, and a few families havo
used it during the Summer and Fall for
curing meat, and it is Il perfect success.
1t does not answer tho purpose of
Eseasonng. but u small quantity Of Salt
does for that purpose. The only OBJ
lection to it, if it may be called one, is,
that it imparts smoky flavor to tho
meat. 1t should be condensed in COP.
per tube or pipe, rs iron turns it black.
| desire to do no more than call atten-
ton to the subject, hoping that we may
soon see several distilleries in operation,
turning out at least fifteen hundred
gallons per day. Twelve or fifteen
gallons will cure ono thousand pounds
OF meat,
The Detroit Free Press, in noticing
some recent salt discoveries in Michi
gan, says: ...
In consequence of the supply of salt
from the Southern salt fields being cut
off by the Rebellion, and the increased
duties on the imported article, the price
has reached figure never known be.
fore The range of prices must, to
great extent, be controlled by the guam
tity manufactured at Saginaw. Those
works have been in operation only
about two years, yet the productions Of
these regions have been widely felt, and
must materially affect the market.
But for tho timely discovery of these
vast salt fields, the deficiency OF this
Indispensable article would be rs ocnly
toIt in The North as it is at the South.
The growers and pac ers Of pork at tic
North would experience serious results
from a scarcity Of this article were it
not for the extensive salt manufacturers
of Saginaw
