place, or = large aud very Influential
majority Of them, were firm friends Of
the Uoion, and we're opposed in precept
and example to the acts Of those who
sought to drag the Union down to deg
radiation, and overthrow the best gov.
eminent Of the world. New Orleans, a.
. city, was no sympathizer with treason
-she Vas only dragged into it by in
auences and appliances over which her
people could exercise no adequate con-
troll.
Our troops are now there, unless the
secession journals lie; and our noble

il the time for tho Union sentiment Of
that place to show itself; now il the
time for men devoted to the Union and
the Government to rally. Will they
do sol The question will soon be an
swered. Ito answer may be key to fu.
ture actions on the part Of the Govern
ment.
New Orleans is the largest city in the
Slave States, excepting Baltimore. In
1850 its population was l7o,7ee, and is
the sixth in size in the Union. What
the forces Of England failed to accom-.
plish abont one-half century ago, has
been done With apparent case by Fed
eral troops-if reports are true.
1t appears that our troops under Gen.
HalIeck, in the vicinity Of Pittsburg
Landing, are to be cheated out Of .
6ght at Corinth, BY the falling back OF
Gen. Beauregard's forces. If this rumor
is correct, it is apparent that Memphis
is left to its fate by the chivalrous Con-
fcderates, and that they are now looking
towards the protection of the Cult
States. The report says that they are
falling back on Columbus, Miss. This
is . small town-the county seat Of
Lowndes county-about four miles east
OF the line of the Mobile and Ohio Rail-
road, with which it Is connected BY .
short branch road. The Tombigbee
river runs between the town and the
above named railroad, aud probably
presents strong strategetic point. II
is nearly one hundred miles from Co.
ruth. The road will probably be en-
ti,ely destroyed by the retreatiug army.
Affairs at yorktown seem to undergo
but little change, as far as We are capa-
bic Of judging from the news received.
The chances there are pretty evenly
balanced.
