Gen. Lane and Gen. Phelps.

The Member of Congress-Mr. Clark
from the jefferson District, N. Y, in let
ter to his paper, the Watertown Journal,
dated Christmas, says:
Senator Lane has left the Senate and
has gone home to resume his command,
with Major Generals commission in his
pocket. This act on the part of the Gov
ernment, after his late able speech in the
Senate, in which he declared that he would
prosecute the war with view only to crush
out rebellion, letting Slavery take caro- of
itself, indicates pretty we'll that tho Ad-
ministration is not as tender-footed on that
subject as it has been. We think the
time for returning fugitives who come into
our camps has gone by. Even Gen
Phelps has not been recalled, and Secretary
Cameron said two or three days since, that
he would not be, and that his doctrine met
his appreciation.
We learn, too, from a reliable source
that Gen. Lane submitted his plan of thu
campaign to the President, the Cabine
and Gen. Mcclellan, and it was most cor
daily approved by them all. This he de
termined to do that a perfect understanding
of his policy might be known.
The Pittsburgh Gazette of this morning
(3d) says:
Gen. Lane has been assigned command
in Kansas and Western Missouri 1t is uu
derstood that he will, with the appreciation
of the Government, mako the experiment
of employing slaves Of rebels in his militar,
operations in the West, using them in tn
transportation and commissary department
mainly. By taking hand-mills, it is though
that slaves can grind corn enough daily

Texas.
Champion Vaughan will be on Ger
Lanes Staff with the rank of Colonel. H
is South Carolinian, but for many year
a noted Anti-Slavery man. When Ian
was confirmed Brigadier General by th
Senate, the other day, Vaughan sent dis

Powder ana Preaching.

The bold Parson BFownlow has at least
one brother in the spirit and in acts Of un-
fiuchiug loyalty and Christian patriotism
in Northern Missouri. Il is the Rev. Alb
ner Russell, who formerly resided in Eric
county, N. Y. The following letter from
him has been handed the Buffalo Erpress
for publication. 1t presents horrible pic
ture of the conditions of things in Missouri.
The dauntless courage exhibited by the
writer in his defiance Of the rebels cxcites a
thrill of admiration:
MEMPHIS, Mo-, Oct. le, 1851.
My DEAR BRorHER-We are we'll. /

marks upon me, made with bullets, buck
shot, DC, ono bullet entered near the back
bone, passing between two ribs, and is vet
In me; one passed so near the neck that it
felt hot, taking the velvet off the top fmy
coat collar; another went through my coat
over the left shoulder; another took the
flesh TO the bone of my big fnger. Many
thought l could not live. was confined
to my room about four weeks, and suffered
much in body, but was happy in the Lord
all the time. You may ask, why did they
try to kill me because l had said l was
for the Union, aud opposed to rebellion
The rebels said that was enough to hang
any one, and if l attempted to fill my next
appointment they would shoot me, for no
man that was raised in the north should
preach in Northern Missouri. told them
to crack away with their pop guns, for had
rather die than to stop preaching through
fear; but did not think they would kill me,
if they shot. On the third day Of August,
some eight miles from home, on my way
to said appointment, met a squad Of men,
armed with guns and big knives. They
shot me and took me back to Memphis =
Col. Moore with his men are now in Mem
phis. have been preaching some fol-
them. Cyrenius has enlisted for three
years. My pen or tongue cannot describe
the horrors OF the war in this country
men fearing to travel or stay at home
The rebels lay in the brush and shoot at
Union men as they pass; one of our neigh
bors was shot while looking for his horses,
not far from his house; others were shot
near Memphis, another was shot while in
bed. They say must leave the State
If do, they will have to kill mo and take
me out, for l will not run for them. l am
the only man, perhaps, in this section, that
has not laid in the woods nights through
fear. They may rob or kill me, but they
cannot scare me.

The culture of cotton is to be taken hold
of iu earnest in Southern Illinois, and it is
stated that at least five thousand acres will
be planted next spring. An agent appoint.
ed by the Illinois Central Railroad Compa-
ny to travel and investigate the subject, re.
ports that there arc 10 Illinois from eight to
ten millions of acres of land which arc
adapted TO the cotton culture. These lands
will also produce flax, castor beans, sorghum,
and other semi.trophical products,
The Chicago Tribune has published an
array Of facts proving that cotton can be
raised in Southern Illinois with as much
facility and as proftably as in tho cotton
regions Of the Southern States. The names
and addresses are given Of a large number
Of persons who have been raising il in that
region, for many years, and who have, un.
der their careless mode of cullivatine, sue,
ceeded in obtaining from 500 to 500
pounds per acre. AT ten cents per pound,
this gives from $50 to $50 to the acre, and,
reckoning eight acres to tho field hand
which is the calculation made OF the slave
production in an official report to Congress
in 1852, we have then $24O to S400 as the
years product Of one hand and eight acres

Tonnage Of the internal works Of these two

whole to be one-half that Of the railroads Of
Massachusetts, and New York, the aggre-
ate tons moved on them is 26,174, ,oo0.-
At the rate Of valuation adopted for the

raised in 1850 over 800, 100000 bushels Of

Toledo, or Milwaukee receive and ship
twice as much grain as either Of the foreign
cities Of Odessa, Galatz, Dantzic or st.
