Memphis IN Eear..A Defence Meeting.

Tie Memphis Argus OF Dec. oath,
contains report Of M citing which
was held IN that city for the purpose Of
procuring reintoreemcnts Tor the defence
Of the city. An address was made,
rom which We select the following:
Tie long threatened inva ion of the
valley OF the Mississippi is at our doors.
The enemies Of our rights aud liberties,
our wives and children, our homes and
tiresidcs, are moving down upon us by
land and water IN over~ helming num-
bets.
Within a few days, perhaps, the
great battle Of the Mississippi will be
fought at Columbus, Ky; ard if our
soldiers are there overpowered, as they
may be, Memphis Is lost to the South,
unless you come to our help. If Mem
phis tails, the Mississippi Valley is lost
too. We ask our flends in the sur
rounding States 20 look these facts
sterny in the face before it be too late.
We are interested in all this. To
save Memphis is to hold all that you
hold dear or valuable on earth. To
abandon it is to abandon the richest
valley on the globe - the lavages Of a
set Of men whom success will make
demons.
We therefore call upon You TO arm
and prepare to strike where blows will
be most etfectua. Organize military
companies and enlist every man between
fifteen and sixty, capable of tearlng
arms. Get out every gun that is effec-
tive, and put them into the hands Of
those that will use them, it you can. II
you have not guns enough, get pixies OF
ash or hickory, armed with iron points.
Husband all your ammunition. Waste
none OF it IN sporting.

There are no Notifications of any

PAPER MONEY FOR TAxEs.-Several
OF our State exchanges are recommend
ing the enactment OF a law by which
notes OF the State Bank shall be received
Tor taxes. This, from one poiut OF view,
looks well in theory, but 10 the end 1t
would be one Of the worst things that
can DC done, if reduced to practice.
There should be no tampering with
the standard OF value, nor any attempt
to substitute the promises Of corpora
tons for specie in the payment of La
bilites Of citizens to the State.-Du-
duque Herald.
THE New York World says that a
merchant in Montreal, whose note lad
been discounted in New York, when
it fell due few days ago wrote to his
creditor declining to pay, alleging as
the reason the probability Of war, and
added moreover, that the cashier OF the
Montreal bank with which he did bust
ness had said to him that his credit
there would not suffer If the note was
not paid on that account.
