THE BALL Is HAuLLING.

Island No. 10 has fallen-that 10 to
say the awful stand which the rebels
were to have mado al that point in tie
Mississippi has played out. Instead OF
standing and contesting the progress OF
the Federal boats, the valiant knights OF
Secession found the place too not to
hold them, and they evacuated. 30
mocb for that; island No. elcren would
nerbans suit them better. II they know
Of any point that they can hold, why
don't they occupy it at once:
But wc are little too fast. we are
Informed that there is real "American
Thermopylr" down that way, and that
the rebels have placed themselves there
determined to hold it or die in their
tracks. But they will do neither. This
place is at New Madrid, NO., and is a
pretty strong point if properly defend.
ed, but as it is, We predict that this
Thermopyl@ will be wrenched out OF
their hands within very few days.
Navigation is opening. The OBJ
structions that the rebels have placed in
our great Northwestern thoroughiare,
are being removed, and though every
inch of the way to the Gulf had to be
fought, there would be no such thing
as permitting that river to be managed
10y another people. The rebels awfulIy
mistake the feeling in the Northwest II
they think to hold the Mississippi in
their grasp. Even if there were no
Union question about it the Mississippi
could not be closed. Our arms are
working wonders down that way. Let
the fight 90 on. Our boats must be in
New Orleans by the first of May.
