eight are mortar boats and twenty EIGHT are tugs

for this expedition is said to be sixty thousand

NASHVILLE, TENN. SATURDAY, JUNE 7, 1862


A Nashville correspondentIof The Cincinnati
Gazette says this noble patriot addressed
some words Of monition 10 his Lebanon
neighbors, which were in excellant taste and
quite seasonable. Gathering as many Of
them as possible around him, without max
ing yublic advertisement, he Is said TO have
addressed them much after this fashion:
"Neighbors, very many Of you we're my
friends in youth. Some Of you were my play
mates ia childhood. Tillthls foolish REBEL.

The Recent Federal successes.
Ffom Lha LILO rlms. b Mar 10.


The North has Alright to presume tsatg he
hour Of .fRal success is approaching, and that
the secessionists, exhausted by a long
and laborious campaign, dispirited bv
reyerses, and separated from each other
by the advances Of the various Federal
expeditions, will be glad TO come 70 An
arrangement, and re-enter the Union on
the easy and honorable terms which The
North would be glad TO offer. This feel
ing sustains the Federals in all the diff
culties Of their position. Though they
are accommodating a debt for which no
financier is providing, though their ar
mics are threatened with a siclSly sum-
mer campaign should the Confederates
hold out, and though no one pretends 70
explain how Republican Government is
to be worked with eight millions of men
brought into the Union by force, and tax
ed for the payment Of interest on debt
incurred for their subjugation, yet the
citation caused by the recent military sue
cesses is so extreme at the North, that no
Federal doubts full and final victory to
be within the grasp Of the Government.
On the other hand, there is as far as we
can learn, no change in the spirit and at
titude of the South. The ConfederateS
are as loud as ever in their declarations
of undying animOsity, and of their reso.-
luton never to enter the same political
community as the North. The men OF
military age are said to have enlisted in
mass; jeff. Davis is largely reinforced,
Gustavus Smith is largely reinforced, so
is Beauregard The South boasts largely
of the sacrifices it will make, and il would
be wrong TO say that it its Boosting is
empty, though the destruction of cotton
and tobacco at New Orleans does not
seem to be confirmed so as TO show that
the people are in earnest in carrying out
their threats of burning the produce OF
their soil and industry rather than sell it
to the best advantage under the protection
Of the Federals.
Though we give full credit 70 the South
erners for the endurance they have shown,
and though iC is probable the fall of New
Orleans will not change their purpose, vet
tits impossible not to feel that the man
ner in which their military leaders have
allowed themselves TO be worsted on the
Mississippi must shake the Condolences
both OF their own people and of foreign
ers in the ultimate success of their cause.
Whether it be that they never believed
that the Federals would come up the
river, or that their exertons in other quar-
tiers prevented them from giving full at
tention to this important section of the
country, it is certain that the Mississippi
has been bnt poorly defended, and the
chic city of the Confederacy suffered to
fall into the enemys hands with scanda-
lous ease The supremacy of the North
at sea may be incontestable, but the
Southerners, men of the same race, and
to great degree Of the same pursuits,
were surely able 10 maintain a river
against a hostile squadron ascending
from its mouth

Six daily papers have survived the
"bad times" which New Orleans has
passed through, viz: The Picayune, Delta,
True Delta, Crescent, Bulletin, and Bee.
OF these, the True Delta and Bee, (the
latter half French and half English)
have all along manifested some regard
for the Old Union, and strangely enough
these are owned and edited by natives Of
the South, while the others, more rampant
on the subject Of secession, arc under the

RebeI Aecounts OF their Crops.

Rebel Accounts of their Crops.
The following comments are from the Sa-
vannah Republican:
The wheat crops seem to be engaging, at
this time, a large share of the public atten-
ton. The accounts from various sections vary
very materially, la some, as in Wilkes and
the neighborhood, the crop seems to have
been almost entirely cut Off so far as opin.
ions can be based on its present condition.
From other portions of the State, especially
the middle and southwestern, similar &C.
counts reach us. If half a crop should be
made, the public expectation will be more
thaR satisfied.
Perhaps, after all, the districts bligbted by
rust are not 80 bad off as the planters cup
pose, We observe that in some counties
where the crop was considered utterly de-
stroyed a month ego, favorable change has
succeeded, aud the planters now look for an
average yield. May it not so turn out where
complaints are now loudest.
The failure of one grain crop though, even
should II be partial suggests q remedy TO
the planter. As soon as he Is satisfied of
the fact, let him pillow up the unproductye
crop ct once and put In another. Corn, pc
tat0es, peas, ETC., may be planted at any time
in the month Of May, or even later, with a
fair promise Of success.
Says the Athens (Tenn) Post:
An immense breadth Of wheat was sown
last seed time, and until quite recently tue
prospect was unusually promising. But
with toe last twelve days a blight of some
sort seems TO have struck 10, and many fields
are so much injured that the owners talk
about turning their stock upon them. While
we doubt whether the blight is so general
and fatal as accounts would lead us 10 be-
lieye, it is certain that the prospect for the
usuai crop is seriously diminished, Il not
entirely gone. The best thing then, The
farmers can do, is TO plant as much land in
corn, potatoes, peas and beans as "a ey can
tend adyantageously and thus an album.

though the wheat crop tail entirely, which
