rho London Times a. a Prophet.

The Times Of the 2Gth ulL, speaking
Of the call for 100000 volunteers, says:
at this war is 10 go ON. the immense
levy ordered by the President must be
actually made. The three hundred
thousand men must be forthcoming if
Virginia is TO be conquered, or if even
Tennessee is to be held BW Hy ,ciH mt
be forthcoming.
"We arc told in the last dispatches
that the volunteering makes slow pro-
gress and that the question of con-
scriptiOn continues 20 be discussed
Drafting for service, or, in other words, a
CONSUMPTION was talked about but we
should think it would be only talked
about The scheme of aforcible levy Of
troops in a republic to subjugate and
hold down another republic is one that
will hardly be seriously proposed even
by the more fanatical of Mr. Lincoln's
advisers"
We have before spoken Of the igno-
rance Of the most intelligent persons in
England Of American geography, re-
sources, and politics. Whenever the
spoutcrs and scribblcrs Of the petty little
island Of Great Britain, hardly bigger
than Illinois, discuss the affairs of a ma
ton like the United States, they are as
much confused and overwhelmed as q
young Indian would be if dropped sud.
denly in the streets Of London They
are out Of their element; they don know
what they are talking about. The Lon.

contemporaries on the American question
and plumbers ridiculously whenever /

the levy of 100000, but another 100000 i

YcIIoW Jack.

Our humane and christian minded Sc
cessionists used to bank largely ON the
prospect Of the great gaps that were sure
TO be made in the Federal ranks by the
rayages of the yellow fever in the South
ern country. The unaccl.mated Yankees
would die like rotten sheep at New Or
leans, Baton Rouge, and all along the
coast they said. The Confederstes might
save their powder, for pestilcnce would
hurry the mercenary invaders into hospi-
table graves, and create such a panic that
the Washington Government would first
have to put down .nutiny before being
able to keep a sufficient guard in the cot
ton States. Well, il is now nearly the
middle Of August, and Yellow Jack has
not yet made his advent The fever pre-
walls nowhere in the South as an cpidcm-
lie, and but few cases have appeared in
any form, New Orleans is a healthier
city than st. Louis this season. This
yanishes a strong reliance Of the enemy,
and thus Providence defeats secession

Some stupid Sccesh in this place seem
very ambitious TO get us to notice them,
from theindustry with which they send
us very ill-spellcd, and intolerably stu
pid anonymous notes, filled with the low
est kind Of personal abuse. These soul
lions waste their paper and ink to poor
purpose. One Of the earliest maNlms we
EVER heard was that of a shrewd old gem
tleman who said that none but towards
and blackguards ever wrote abusive anon
ymous letters; and our own observation
has convinced us Of the truth of his OBJ
seryation. The bark of an anonymous
BLACKBOARD concerns us as much as the
bark of puppy in the dark, and no
more, We have many more important
matters to attend to, than to notice the
slang Of Yahoo, who has not manlincss
to sign his name to his yilliacation.

II will never do in the world to have
black officers in the army, because in hot
weather the black officers would always
oui-,alk the white ones, and would con-
sequcntly be in bad oi5y with the rest Of

Thinning ON one side and psyt,mHy on the

The State of Ohio will produce fifteen
millions OF gallons of sorgho syrup this
year The importation of plantation
molasses and refined syrups into Cincin-
natl, to supply Ohio, and portions of
Kentucky and Indiana, and the Kanawha
valley, has varied in quantity from three
to five millions of gallons per aunum.
The greater portion Of the plantation
molasscs for the territory above mention
ed went and was distributed from Gin
cinnat. II will be inferred from this,
that in respect TO sugar and molasscs the
Great West is already independent Of
Louisiana plantations. The product of
sorgho in Indiana and Illinois will be
three times greater this year than it ever
was before, and there will be an increase
in Kentucky. The crop in Missouri will
not be apt to equal that of last year, on
account Of the disturbed condition Of the
country, bu' it will not be cNtravagant to
estimate the whole opof sorgho in the
North at thirty millions Of gallons Sor-
gho growers are still experimenting to
make sugar. and they are greatly en-

Orders for the release, by exchange or
otherwise, of the prisoners at Camp Nor
ton, have been received. Ex-Governor
Campbell, Of Tennessee, is expected here
to make the arrangements as far as re-
CARDS the Tcnnesseeans. We learn there
are many Union men among them, and
that nearly all Of the 200 desire to
return to their homes in their State, and
stay with her in the Union. They pro-
TESS TO be Estates Rights men," and they
are willing TO abide with their State Ell
thcr in or out of it, Back to the rebel
army they will not go, preferFing to re-
main in captivity here. Governor Camp
bell, it is presumed, will exercise his
judgment in dealing with the prisoners
from his own State,
We find the above in the indianapolis

not only Gov, CAMPBELL, but of all loyal
Tennesseeans when we say that the re-
turn Of the Tennessee prisoners who pro-
Tess to be Estates Rights men and are
willing to abide with their State, either
in the Union or out Of it," to this State
in the present critical iuncturc, would be
neither safe or desirable to the friends
Of the Union, Such persons may say
that they will not go back to the rebel
army, but hundreds of others have said
so and joined guerrilla bands in a week

FROM WASHINGTON.
Correspondents OF Nashville union.


WAsHMeToN, May 10, 1862.
The excellent report at full length, of
the proceedings Of the Union Convention
at the Capital of Tennessee, on the 18th
instant, has reached us, and filed all
loyal hearts with joy and graduation.
We were slow to believe that the people
Of that noble State would favor Seces-
sion and now that all but the most
obtuse must see that the majority OF
those who acted openly with the con-
spiratOrs were deceived, beguiled, or CO.
creed, into that cooperation, will they
not embrace the opportunity which is
presented by the magnanimous course Of
the General Government and its worthy
representative, Governor JOHNSON, and
return, without delay, to their allegiance?
Nothing can be in better temper or taste
than the whole of the Governors speech
on this memorable occasion.
The Hon. EDWARD STANLEY will leave
Washington tomorrow for North Caro-
lima, to enter on his duties as Military
Governor of that State, so nearly allied
TO Tennessee by family ties and thou
sand endearing and inspiring associa-
tons. He cannot take better chart
for his guidance than that which is pre-
sented in the conduct of ANDREW JOHN
SON, since he undertook the same respon-
sible post at Nashville.
Kentucky, it is said, will very soon
enjoy the advantage of Military Gov
ernor too. The insolence and cruelty of
the Rebels in certain districts, since the
withdrawal of the Federal troops, rem
ders such procedure necessary. What
commentary on the boosted chivalry
of Secessionists! To stink away at the
sight of Union bayonets, and when the
wholesome presence of the glittering
steel no longer restraints them, then to
creep out from their hiding places, and
Cypress defenceless old men, and UNI
offending women and children
The intelligence from the Army and
Navy to-day continues to strengthen the
confidence of the country in our gallant
heroes on land and sea and to convince
the representatives of Foreign Powers
here that the Rebellion is approaching
its end. There is no foundation for the
rumors about Intervention being about
to be attempted by England and France,
either singly or combined. The present
is no time for such Intervention, even if
they had ever thought of it. When we
are opening port after port along the
Atlantic coast to the commerce of the
world; when we are loosing the bonds
that kept back cotton, it would be most
inOppOrtune for nation that has any
regard for the law of the world to do
that for which there is no pretext what
ever; after having forborne so long,
when the pretext Of want of cotton did
exist.
The Secretary of the Treasury, with
that sagacious and prompt statesman
ship which be has so often manifested,
rapidly follows up the recovery of COM
mercial points from the possession of the
Rebels, by setting on foot means for fa-
cilitating the influx of goods and mer-
chandize, such as the people have need
of, and have been long kept from, by the
miserable Vaccinations Of the conspira-
tors, L. NJ. d.
