ARE We RRAnYf


tent Of the preparations that are making in the
North for our subjugsion this wialer. That a
final and desperate effort is to be made by the
enemy to get fall and complete control Of the
BIigsississippi river, from Cairo to New Orleans,
Ho longer admits Of doubt asd as cumulative
evidence Of the enormous prePa-ations making
for the accomplishment Of this purpose, We IA
stsnce the following paragraph iFem the Chicago
TI5acs Of tha lIah u!t In enumsrsting the mum
Ber of troops recently raised in IuinOis, thai
paper says:
Inis makes tity-niBe regiments of infantry

YaUEbI's Spring hald battery, nor RsnTicS's s
L gin battery, nor Jour other batteries CrEEnlz-
ing, nor Use regiments Of cavalry now organic
irg.

tof5re done, these figure become almost alarming.

foJt, for the distinction Of sl the troops ln iii
Iois and Wisconsin was changed yesterday, un-
.Csr sdyicss from the War Department. The
country demands that they shall be let loose,

days IN New Orleans or some other gulf city
In view Of the force that can be brought to
bear against the progress Of sny force that can
be sent sgzinss rs, there is nothing alarming in
al this, but It should serve as an adnonitiOn TO
our people ard State We have the men and
the means TO meet ard drive back these invad-
lag hor5es. What we want IS q more thorough
End more efficient orgsEzation than is sf-
frded BY our present militia system, aud we

70 doubt, give the subject his serious and
earsest consideration.
