AT the present nrice of printing pa

are scarcely paying moro for their
printed sheets than the prime cost of
the white paper ON which they are
printed. The advance in price in the
last ten days is fully twenty-five per
cent, or nearly one dollar per ream on
the pa .cr used BY the American. But
this IS uotall. We are threatened with

Peace, and What Then?

lnOuSh we may not De near JUS closing
hours; though months, and even years
of su~fFerings and privations may yet
intervene, before we conquer peace
with the northern republic, and have
our independence recognized by them;
yet the probabilities are strongly in IA.
vor of an carly armistice loo ing to a
final cessation Of the war, The great
battles impending or the banks Of the
Rappatannock, and here in Middle
Tennessee and Northern Mississippi, if
in our favor, will decide tho conflict.
We say j in our fapor, for the people
Of the United States are unit in favor
Of protracting the war forever, rather
than basely yield to be tho subjects Of
the northern power: They have deba.
ted the question within themselves.
They shavo made their choice. Death
before defeat, in the holy cause of in
dependence, is the immovable choice of
the people of the Confederacy. There
fore we We say, that if the issue of the
great struggle of arms, now impending.
should be in our favor, the prelude OF
peace may soon be sounded in the ears
of the two nations. Are We prepared

port? What change OF relations it will
inaugurato between us and our north.

of extravagance and folly which mark
ed our character, as individuals, before
the war? The privations we are suffer
ing, arc they to learn IL no new prin.
ciples? The lessons Of individual indie
pendence, are they to be forgotten with
the times which teach them to us?
Political independence is but half of
wha, we arc fighting to attain. The
other half is personal--individual-in-
dependence. We have been dependent
upon our enemies for too many OF the
conveniences of life. 1t was long ago
toreseen that commercial dependence
was destroying our energies and bring
ing us into a sort Of vassalage to our
euemies, with whom we were then in
political unity. The political bands
are forever severed. SO ought it to be
in regard to personal intercourse. In
regard to commerce and traffic Of every
sort. There is u wall Of fire between
the two peoples now. Peace may Don
como, and then our enemies will seek
to put out the fire that they may enjoy
