the twenty-fourth year of the most brilliant career
ever achieved by paper During the past year
it has been the teacher, story-teller mentor and
oracle of tooo hundred Thousand american homes
from ocean to Ocean-and from Quebec, in Canada

In commencing New Year, the proprietors OF

American literature, for 1862, more brilliant and

The New YoRK MERCURY will continue true to that
lofty spirit of patriotism which has made it neces-

it in enthusiastic demand when other sheets were
dying all around it for want of popular support.
Already the largest Literary Journal in the
world, and famous as the focus of thousand
brilliant literary regulations, its programme for
1862 will be magnificent beyond all precedent. The
most celebrated pens of this country and Europe
have been secured in its service at an outlay equal
to the erpense Of more than national government

Reported Attack on our Fleet by the
new Rebel Ram.

MEMPHIS, July Is.
Especial dispatch to Forney's Press.) The
Grenada Appeal Of the 10Th inst. reports
that the rebel ram aud iron-clad gunboat Ar
kansas, under command Of Capt. j. n. Bry-
an, came down from the Yazoo river on the
18th, and ran by that portion Of our fleet
which lies above Vicksburg, and anchored
under the batteries surrounding that city
The Appeal says the ram ran down several
Federal vessels and disabled many more. One
of our vessels was blown up. The Arkansas
is very formidable gunboat, being plated
with 10 inch iron, with the plates and
nails riyeted. She has very heavy arma-
ment, and is furnished with two propellers
seven feet in diameter. with four hanges each.
The loss Of che rebels is set down at 10 killed
and l3 wounded. The Federal loss is not
known, but is supposed to have been very
heavy.
In addition TO the above, the Appeals dis
patch contains great deal which is bombas-
tic and not worthy Of republication, hut I'M
questionably there is some truth in thestate-
nent above.
There are no recent arrivals from Vicks-
burg.
The Ledger has copy of the Richmond
Wing of the 18th, which contains a dispatch
from Lieut.. Brown, stating that the rebel
ram Arkansas came out OF the YazOo river
and ran successfully through the Union feet

she reached the cover OF the batteries at

GAN that the Nation hath will IL give for
its Life"

The Nation, the State, and the City-says
the n. Y. Times-all offer freely, munilic-
iently. "All that the nation hath, will it
give for its life :" and that life, that Unity
which is its life, can now only be conserved
and sustained by the soldier.
No man now can complain that he cannot
enlist to serve his country because he has a
family or other dependant relatives who will
suffer in his absence. The seyenty.6ye dol.
lars Zone hundred and forty, hcre) which are
paid down to the volunteer will. IL econom-
ically used, support an ordinary family in
comfort for two or three months-beiore the
end Of which time, the soldier, by our admi.
rable army allotment system, can transmit
to his family what part of his ample pay he
chooses. In addition to this, the families of
New York volunteers obtain from the city
handsome allowance for their support-for
which ample means have already been pro.
vided. Altogether, no man can say that
munifcent provision has not been made for
the sustenance Of himself and those depend
ent upon him us long as he wears the uni
form of soldier Of the United States. Such
pay and such bounties would be considered
fabulous in any other country in the world.
But it is all given heartily, and the superb
bundant riches Of the land makes its contin-
uanccs sure.
And then, too, when the soldier is SOL
der no morc-when, war-worn veteran,
and having foughtt the good fight Of freedom,
he retircs from the field, citizen OF nigh
ty republic which he himself has glorifcd,
and Union which his arms have rebuilt and
cemented-then the Government furnishes
him free home-a share in the sofia pos
session which shall descend to his children's
children forcyer-a gift which shall be his
pride and theirs. What more could CRATE
full country do for its soldiers? What more
could soldier ask?

What Judge Douglas Said.

As many quote the late Senator Douglas
to bolster them up in their attempts to ere
ate dissatisfaction in the public mind against
the Government in the prosecution Of the
war, the extracts given below from the last
letter ever written by him will be read with
interest.
The letter was written while confined to
his death.bed, in order to clear up all doubts
us to his opinion, and clear his name from
the "aspcrsions Of those who claimed to be
hi, political friends"
Being too weak to write he dictated the
letter, which was directed to the Chairman
OF the Democratic State Committee Of ILL
nois.
Let those who are giving their sympathy
to the yillainous rebels at the South, cease
to shield themselves behind the name Of Sen.
ator Douglas:
"The slavery question is mere excuse !;
the election Of Lincoln mere pretext. The
present secession movement is the result OF an
enormous conspiracy; IL war
must come-if the bayonet must be used to
maintain the Constitution, say before God.
my conscience is clear. have struggled
long for peaceful solution Of the difficulty.
