The Paris correspondent of the New
York Herald writes thus from the French
metropolis:
The excitement in Paris over the news
of the capture of New Orleans was great.
The secessionists looked very doleful,
and endeavored to console each other
with the hope that the news was net
true. Mr.. Slidell stated it as his firm
belief that New Orleans was gone, and
acknowledged that it was great disas-
ter to the Confederate cause. The French
manifest more interest in this than they
have in any other news which has tran
spired since the beginning of the war,
for several reasons. New Orleans is still
regarded almost as a French city, and
thousands have friends and relatives
there; and besides, there has always
been direct trade and communication
between France and New Orleans, which
has been destroyed by the war, and
which, it is hoped, now that the Govern
ment has retaken the city, may be recon-
menced. The mercantile community are
generally joyful at the fact of New Or
leans being taken, particularly as it is
believed that Mr.. Dayton has received
instructions to notify the French Gov
eminent that the rigors of the blockade
are to be mitigated The Pat,fe, which
belongs body and bones to the secession
lists, acknowledge that "the taking of this
important city will precipitate the march
of events, and hasten the downfall of
the Southern Confederacy, There is no
denying this" This glorious news has
created such an impression in Paris, and
is regarded as of so much importance
for its future, that, if there was before
any idea Of recognizing the bogus Con-
federacy, il will doubtless be given up
now.
The Memphis APpeal, just before the
arrival Of the Federal feet before that
city-said at the close of an article on
the Yankees:
Such is the feeling Of this abandoned
race of people toward us, who are now
seeking to whip US back into an intoler-
able social and political utilization with
them. Better far the smoking ruins of
once prosperous cities, and a country
made desolate and barren by our own
hands, attest if necessary, the indomita-
bic resoluteness OF our determination to
be free.

The Mobile Ne,os says that the "head
Of the North depends on the institution
of slavery" and that when the South
has made herself "a charred and smok-
ing desert" the North will be "forced to
acknowledge, as all Europe will be COM
PEELED to do that on the pre-ordained in
stitution of slavery depends the COM
merce and prosperity of the world"
That then cher white slaves will rise
and emancipate themselves from the wild
despair Of beggarly Starvation
This "charred and smoking desert"
reminds us of old Mantilini's everlasting
threat to his wife that he would drown
himself and become a "dem'd cold, un-
comfortable body" But although he at
tempted suicide times innumerable he
always managed to escape. Either his
knife was too dull, or his rope too short,
or his poison too weak, or the water not
wet enough, or his pistol too hard on the
trigger. But only think of the supreme
absurdity Of saying that "the prosperity
and commerce Of the world" containing
over 5O0OOOOO0 of civilized people, de-
ponds on four millions of ignorant
slaves. What an Atlas the negro is, to
walk off with the whole world on his
back, when all history, and especially
the history Of South Carolina, Virginia,
Mississippi, Maryland and North Caro-
lima proves conclusiyely that he has been
and is dead weight and drawback to
the wealth, prosperity, population and
general progress of the States. But why
give these cotton Drained, cotton heart
ed, and ~cottoh-mouthed politicians facts
and statistics ? Did not Vice President
STEPHENS say, that the ideas of JEFFER-
SON and the fathers of the Constitution
were fundamentally ,Orong" and did he
not say that the "chief corner stone of the
Southern Coyederacy is slavery" and not
the right of man to self government?
And does not South Carolina say that no
man shall serve as legislator who does
mot own ten negroes, or $500 of real
estate?

Mr.. JENKINS, who opened the Union
Meeting at shelbyviIle with prayer, is a
minister Of the Lutheran Church, over
fifty years Of age, and is distinguished
for his devotion to his calling and his
unaffected and unblemished piety. He
is, indeed, correct copy Of GOldsmith's
celebrated picture of Country Parson."
He lives near Rowesville in Bedford
county. Last winter he was arrested by
the rebels in his neighborhoed and sem
fenced to be hung, and it was with much
difficulty that the rufians were prevented
from executing their hellish and coward
ly purpose. He is one of the few minis
ters that we have heard of in Middle
Tennessee who remained faithful and
true to his God and his country, and
richly deserves the love and respect
shown him by all the Union men of Bed
ford county. Such a minister is of the
true martyr stock. Fearless old MARTIN
LUTHER himself does not blush to own
him. There is higher type of courage
shown in his patient endurance for the
sake of truth than the soldier shows
amid the excitement of the battle. And
we may well close this notice with the
appropriate lines of GoLDsMITH's beauti-
full poem:
CAS- some tail cliff thht li'ts its awful form,
Swells from the vale and midway leaves the stmm
Though round it's base the lowering ouds arc
spraad,
Eternal sunshine settles on its head"

Hints 20 Farmers I'm IA g Loyal states.
Several facts highly important TO the
farmers Of the loyal States are now well
ascertained and tell their own lesson very
plainly.
FIRsT--The Cotton supply for at least
twelve months TO come, will fall far short
of the demand. Perhaps not 33 per cent.
Of the old crop will find its way to mar
ket, while the growing crop will be about
nothing.
SEcOSDLY-The Sugar supply will be
greatly reduced, and great advance
may be expected in both molasses and
sugar. So Of the Tobacco crop.
THmDLY-The predatory system of
guerilla warfare adopted by the rebel
leaders, together with the wide spread
ravages of the rust, will make the wheat
crop of the Southern States mere drop
in the bucket, SO far as regards supply
ing the home demand for bread The hog
crop of the Southern States will also be
short hey ond precedent.
Intelligent farmers who will study
these facts, will at once see the impor-
lance of the following suggestions, which
we make for the benefit of the loyal
agricultural interest:
FIRsT-Take care of your sheep and
see that you raise heavy crop of nice
clean wool. Cultivate fax. Both of these
staples will pay ,0sH.
SEooND--Giy as much attention as
possible to cultivating the Chinese Sugar
Cane-if you cannot make sugar, make
molasses. We would suggest to farmers
to club together and buy good mill for
the use of the respective neighborhoOds.
THRD-An acre of tobacco, well Guilt
waited, will pay you better than five or
six acres of corn. The crop next fall will
unavoidably be a very short one in Vir-
ginia and large portions of Missouri, Ten
nessee, and even portions of Kentucky.
Good Tobacco, well prepared, will bring
from $15 to S1s per hundred. One acre,
well attended, will yield from 1000 to
1900 lbs, worth at least from 81 90 to
So 25. The crop needs great care and
attention, but is always good for the money.
FoURTH-The wheat and hog crop will
also be profitable, as these are necessa-
ries, and must be bought by the South.
A large demand will also come from the
Military force, which will be kept in the
revOlted States until the last Yestige of
opposition to the Federal Government
disappears. We feel safe in assuring orr
friends, that in spite of the heavy ex-
pense of the war at present, they still
have a margin for large profits. And
when we consider that in all probability
the bulk of the expenses of the war will
be made up from the property of the re-
bells, our fit cen millions of farmers may
snap their fingers in the face of JEFF.
DAVIS, and tell him that they can stand
il good deal better than he can.

Con-. FARRAGUT's feet found Lou
isiana planter, living near the river, who
had five thousand bales of cotton, which
he refused to burn. An officer with Com
FARRAGUT writes
At sunset came to anchor just below
the line that divides the States of Lou
isiana and Mississippi, abreast of the
very extensive plantation of gentleman
who bears the name of Colonel --
He is owner of six plantations, and works
one thousand negroes. Sent two boats
ashore (armed.) went with one of the
boats. Had an interview with Colonel
-, his overseers and negroes. This
gentleman is in avery bad "fix." He
has now five thousand bales of cotton
stored on his plantation, and received Or
ders the very same night, before we paid
him our visit, to burn it or remove il Eve
miles further into the interior. He is
very indignant at the bogus rebel gov
eminent, and says with an oath he will
die first. He denOunces the rebel gov
eminent and all its works, and says there
is terrible reaction about to take place
in these Southern States, and justice,
though long delayed, will surely have its
right.
The planter referred to in the above
extract must be Col. JOS AcKLEN, of this
city. His plantation is at the exact point
described. If the Colonel can only get
the protection from the rebel government
that the Federals give him, he will not be
in such bad fix" after all. The only
fear be need have is that some rebel guer-
rillas will be sent TO destroy his crop for
his refusal 10 obey BEAUREGARD's late
order We advise him to remove his
crop to New Orleans as fast as possible,
and put it in his pocket and keep out of
reach of rebel gangs of marauders and
robbers.

A 1IemphIs Fire Eater.

On the 9th ult the Memphis Ns,0s
said:
We hear some reasonable sheets init
mating that there can, in the nature of
things be possible circumstances That
would induce them TO prefer the Lincoln
Government to the Southern Confede-
racy. For our own part, we agree with
a cotempOrary, that if the choice is forced
upon us, which we do not apprehend will
be the case, we should prefer any despo-
tism, even that Of the Gar Of Russia, or
the black monarch Of the ,0ildest race IN A6i-
ca, to the rule Of Abe Lincoln.
Now we suggest TO cold Abe" who is
said to be one of the kindest hearted and
obliging men in the world, that he take
this unhappy editor aud ship him of,
right side up with care, TO the King Of
Dahomey. Perhaps his sable majesty
will make him chief groom of the royal
stables, or head steward in the kitchen.
And if he can find no other vacancy for
our Memphis editor to GIl, let him roast
him and eat him up, and make him mn

watch Them.

We are satisfied That the leading rebels
Of this city design some mischief For
some days they have been throwing out
dark hints about a rebel expedition on
Murfreesboro', and predicting the re-
capture Of Nashville. They could not
conceal their delight at the capture Of
our scouts at Readyville on Saturday,
initiating in the tenderness and humanity
of their comments their humane breth-
ren of Baltimore. There is not a shadow
of doubt that the city has numbers of
spies who send news by couriers every
night to the guerrilla officers, who COM
municate in turn with their headquarters
at McMinnville. The safety and peace
of the city imperatively demands, in our
opinion, the immediate arrest and impris-
onmcnt of a number Of the most active
and influential rebels among us. The
arrest OF the little fellows does no good,
as it exasperates those arrested and &C
fually emboldens the wire-workers be-
hind the scenes, who infer from this
Dolicy that the Government is merely
playing game of brag, and is attempt
ing TO frighten those whom it lacks the
courage to attack. This course is pro-
EIucing incaIculable mischief. We must
confine our blows to the leaders, not only
those in arms, or holding civil appoint
menls under rebel authority, but those
particularly who, although ostensibly
neutral, are yet privately supplying
money, clothing, arms, ammunition and
information to the guerrilla leaders. All
such parties must be seized and held in
confinement, and made to disgorge as
much for the use Of the Government as
they have paid TO the cause of treason.
Why is a man allowed to talk his treason
in our streets who was the avowed Sc
cessiOn candidate for Circuit Judge, and
supported as such by the rebels? Why
Is a paper tolerated in this city under the
protection of the Federal flag, whose
editor was one Of the editors of the in
famous Union and american, and who,
IL his friend IsHAM HARRIS were to return
in triumph to Nashville, would raise the
standard of treason with a shout of ex-
ultation? Let the hand of justice seize
on these and all similar offenders. We
have dallied too long. We have held out
I the olive branch and the white flag, and
the only response these malignants have
given has been the snarl of the mad dog
1 and the hiss of the Infatuated serpent. In
what we have said we mean to cast no
reflections on the ability, the efficiency,
or the fidelity of our military and civil
authorities. We admire their magnan-
unity and patience in putting up so long,
at the risk of their own safety, with the
insolence of the rebels. Their course
proves conclusively that as representa-
tives of the Federal Government they
have been fully determined not to resort
TO force when moral means could be used
successfully. Those means have been
tried on the rebel aristocaacy and failed
in almost every instance. These demo-
MAC spirits have felt our magnanimity
and laughed it to scorn, and now let them
feel our power and vengeance, and laugh
If they can.

To the multitude who have been de-
ceiyed, forced and swept into the gulf Of
rebellion by outside pressure and the
terror of Vigilance Committees, let the
Government show a lofty generosity and
mercy. But to the hardened authors of

there remain nothing but certain fear
full looking for Of judgment and fiery
Indignation

We doom poor ignorant and deluded
rebel prisoners to weary exile from their
homes in Northern camps, and yet at
every step we take on the streets of
Nashville we meet insolent, naughty,
stiff necked and defiant traitors-men
of wealth and influence, whose internal
wiles and falsehoods seduced those I'M
happy prisoners from their loyalty. We
crush the puppet but leave untouched the
juggler who pulls the wires.

We read in history of an ancient King
who was engaged at the beginning of
his reign in subduing a dangerous insur-
rection against his authority, which was
instigated and kept up by the wealth
and influence of some noblemen. His
son took one of the insurgent cities and
sent a messenger to his father to know
what policy he should pursue in reducing
the pee pie to submission TO his govern
,ment. The King gave the messenger no
ireply, but motioned TO the messenger to
follow him into the garden. He passed
along the walks and str7ick dam the tallest
Peoples with his staff, and turning TO the
messenger gave him a sign to withdraw.
When the messenger returned to the
young Prince he complained that his
father would give him no answer, but the
Prince on learning what the King did in
the garden, Immediately seized the rich
and influential mobiles who had excited
the instruction, and conGscated the es-
tates of some and executed others.
