The REBEL ARMY IN VIRGINIA
The Baltimore correspondent Of the
New York Herald asserts that $4,000
rebel troops have been ordered from
the West and South to the defense of
Richmond against the series Of attacks
the Confederates expect TO be made
upon that city. lie also estimates the
rebel army to be 10000, aud that por-
ton Of it under the general command of
Lee to be $4,000. Of this number he
locates $4,000 in front of the army of
the Potomac 10000 composing the reb.
ell right wing along The Rappahanock ;
10000 with the left wing under Jack
SON.; $4,000 at Richmond, Fort Darling
and Saxton's Junction, and $4,000 on
the peninsula. The same authority says
there is reason to believe the design of
Lee TO be 10 engage Il e ATT, n.ion Of
Burnside somewhere between Fred
erick burg ard Saxton's Junction with
one Of the divisions of his army while
he marches by way Of Warrentou and

through Manassas Gap.
Ii the above statements can be relied
on the rebels will have only $4,000
troops in the Valley of the Mississippi, at
Vicksburg, on the Talahatchie, in Ark
ansas. and Mobile, Chattanooga, Savan-
nah, Charleston and all other places !:
bat if Price has 10000, Beauregard
10000 (for Charleston and Savannah),
il there are $4,000 at Vicksburg, and
10000 rebel soldiers are located be-
tween Cumberland Gap and Knox

the case in each instance-this will
overrun the estimate some ten thousand
men, and still have several large gar
risons and armies out of the compuia-
tioa. We doubt much that the Balti-

REBEL NEGOTIATIONS. There ap.
pears to have been some truth, after all
in the recent rumors Of some negotia-
tons going on between leading rebel,
and certain prominent Democrats of New
York city. In a speech delivered last
Saturday evening, Fernando Wood is
reported to have spoken substantially as
follows:
Mr.. Wood said he had received in
formation aud had communicated it ia
the government, that under certain cir
cumsiances the South were ready TO re-
turn-aye, from leading statesmen ofthe
South. Men of position and influence
in the southern confederacy had express
ed desire to return under a Democratic
rule the past 10 be forgotten, the public
debt on both sides to be prorided for, and
they were willing to let by-gones be by
cones if the North would, and the Union
once again be restored. (Terrifc cheers,
lasting several minutes)."

We have no help yet, and what is

of three bands within the last four weeks,

Ascertain from the statistics the small
proportion of the region which has as
yet been brought into cultivation, and also
the large and rapidly increasing amount
Of its products and we shall be over
whelmed with the magnitude of the pros.
pect presented, and yet this region has no
sea coast and touches no ocean any
where.
AS part of one nation its people now
find and may forever find their way to
Europe by New York to South Ameri-
ca, and Africa by New Orleans, and to
Asia by San Francisco. But separate
our common country into two nations, as
designed by the present rebellion, and
every man Of this great interior region
is thereby cut off from some one or more
of these outlets, not perhaps by phys
ical barrier, but by embarrassing and on
erous trade regulations; and this is true
wherever a dividing or boundary line
may be fixed. Place it between the now
free and slave country, or place it south
of Kentucky, or north of Ohio, and still
the truth remains that none south of it
can trade TO any part or place north Of it,
and none north of it can trade to any
part or place south of it, except upon
terms dictated by government foreign
to them. These outlets, east, west and
south, are indispensable to the well being
of the people inhabiting and to inhabit
this vast interior region, which of the
three may be best is no proper question !;
all are better than either and all Of right
belong to that people and to their sue
cessors forever. True to themselves,
they will not ask where a line of separa.
ton shall be, but will vow rather that
there shall be no such line. Nor are the
marginal regions less interested in these
communications to and through them to
the great outside world.
They too and each of them must have
access to this Egypt of the West without
paying toll at the crossing Of any nation
|
al boundary. Our national strife sprung
not from our permanent part, not from
the land we inhabit, not from our nation
al homestead. There is no possible sew.
ering to this but would multiply and not
mitigate evils among US. In all its ad-
aptations and amplitudes it demands
Union and abhors separation in fact
it would ere long force reunion, however
much of blood and treasure the separa-
ion might Nhave cost. Our strife per-
tans to ourselves, 10 the passing genera
lions of men and it cannot without convul-
sion be hushed forever with the passing
Of one generation.

THE MIssIssIPPI AND TEe NoRru-
WEST. The Grenada (Miss.) Appeal
of Nov. IA has an article treating of the
relations Of the Northwestern States
with New England, the effect of the
war upon each section, and TIE interest
of the former in the navigation of the
Mississippi. New England is repre-
sented as growing rich upon the war,
from active employment furnished to its
spinners, shoemakers, shipwrights, foun.
ders, artisans of all kinds. Tie West,
on the contrary, has no new demand for
its products, is shut out from the great
Southern market, and is paying enor-
nous freights to railways owned by
Eastern capitalists for Transporting its
grain, flour and bacon to the Atlantic
seaboard. Under .hese circumstances
the appeal is not surprised that the
Northwest is clamoring for the destruc-
ton of Vicksburg, and The opening of
the Mississippi to commence. But at
the same time the appeal contends that
the capture of Vicksburg will not affect
the commercial condition of the North
western States, because until Mr.. Lin
coin can line both shores Of the Missis-
sippi, from Cairo to New Orleans, with
armed men, no trading vessel can nav
igate its waters. The Northwestern
States profess to be fighting for the
Union, but that means nothing more
than free trade on the Mississippi
When Vicksburg is taken they will find
themselves as far as ever from their OBJ
ject and as they have no sympathy
with New England, further than New
England may aid the West in opening
the great river to the commerce of the
West" the appeal believes they will be
ready TO cut adriit from the East. AT.
ter these speculatiOns the appeal comes
to the nub of the matter as follows:
Twelve months ago a gentleman pro-
posed TO the Confederate authorities to
90 to the Northwest, and quietly and
through the press, to urge the necessity
of an alliance between those States and
those Of the lower valley of the AIissis-
sippi. 1t was then thought BY our lead
ers that we would soon put an end to
this struggle, and the Northwest, under
the supposition that we sought to deprive
them of their most valued commercial
rights, has continued to furnish the Fed.
eral Government with the bravest and
best troops in the Northern armies. OF
late, this subject has again attracted at
tention, and if we are not ill-informed
our government has been induced to give
it serious attention.
Southerners may imagine that they
can detach the great Northwest from tie
Union, but they will find themselves
greatly deceived.

territory, its people and its laws The
territory is the only part which is of GER
tain durability. One generation passeth
away and another generation cometh, but
the earth abideth forever.
1t is of the first Importance to consider
and estimate this ever enduring part
that portion of the earth's surface which

the home of one national family, and it

peat
One section of our country believe
slavery is right and ought to be extend
ed, while the other believe it is wrong
and ought not to be extended. This is
the only substantial dispute. The fugi-
tive slave clause of the constitution and
the law for the suppression of the Afri-
can slave trade are each as we'll enforced,
perhaps, as any law can ever be in
community where the moral sense of the
people imperfectly support the law itself.
The great body of the people abide by
the legal obligation in both cases, and a
few break over in each. This | think
cannot be perfectly cured, and it would
be worse in both cases, after the separa-
ton of the sections than before.
The foreign slave trade now imperfect
ly suppressed would be ultimately re-
ceived without restriction in one section,
while fugitive slaves, now only partially
surrendered, would not be surrendered at
all by the others.

Mansfeld's Dispensatory says that most
Of the Sarsaparilla of the shops is inert
and worthless. DIR. Aver in his writing
on this drug states that not only is it in.
ert as found in the shops, but so also are
most of the preparations from it, or bear
ing its name. He shows, however, that
this fact arises from the use of worthless
varieties, or unskilful preparations by in
competent men; that the true medicinal
Sarsaparilla (Sarza Smilax off, Of the
tropics, when freshly gathered in the bud,
is one of the most effectual alternatives we

ces of great Alternative power, like Iodine,

SEPARATION IMPOSSIBLE.

| Physically speaking, we cannot separ-
ate. We cannot remove our respective
sections from each other, nor build an
impossible wall between. A husband
and wife may be divorced aad go out of
the presence and beyond the reach Of
each other, but the different parts Of our
country cannot do this-they cannot but
remain face to face, and intercourse, Ell
Their amicable or hostile, must continue
between them. Is it possible then to
make that intercourse more advantageous
or more satisfactory after separation than
before Can aliens make treaties easier
than friends can make laws ? Can treo-
ties be more faithfully enforced between
aliens than laws can be among friends ?
Suppose you 60 to war, you cannot
fight always, and when, after much loss
on both sides and 10 gain on either, you
cease fighting, the identical old questions
as to terms of intercourse are again upon
you. There is no line straight or crook
ed suitable for a rational boundary upon
which to divide.
Trace through from the east to the
west upon the line between the free and
slave country AMI we shall find that
little more than one third of its length
are rivers easy to be crossed and popula-
ted, or soon to be populated, thickly, upon
both sides, while nearly all its remaining
length are merely surveyors lines, over
which people may walk back and forth
without any consciousness of their pres
ence.
No part Of this line can be made any
more difficult to pass by writing it down
on paper or parchment as a national
boundary. The fact of separation, if it
comes, gives up on the part of the sec
tional obligations upon the seeding Sec
ton of the fugitive slave clause, along
with all other constitutional obligations
ppon the section seeded from, while /
should expect no treaty stipulation would
ever be made TO take its place. But
there is another difficulty; the great in
terror region, bounded east by the Allie
ghanies, north by the British dominions,
west by the Rocky Mountains, and south
by the line along which the culture of
part of Virginia, part of Tennessee, all
of Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri. Kansas,
Iowa, Minnesota and the Territories of
Dacotah, Nebraska and part of Colorado
has above ten millions of people and will
have fifty millions within fifty years #
not prevented by any political folly or
mistake. 1t contains more than one.third
of the country owned by the United
States-certainly more than one million
of square miles, one half as populous as
Massachusetts already is, or would have
more than seventy five millions of peo-
pie.
A glance at the map shows that, ter
ritorially speaking, it is the great body of
the Republic. The other parts are but
marginal borders to it.
The magnificent region sloping west
from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific
being the deepest and also the richest in
developed resources in the production of
provisions. grains, grasses, aud all which
proceed from them.
This great interior region is naturally
one of the most importan, in the world.
