What New York is to the North,
East and West, such is. New Orleans
to the South. Nearly one-third of all
the cotton exported, found its outlet

regenerated, disenthralled," from the
blighting leprosy of the rebellion.
Thus the work of recovering the
Union goes bravely Oh. The next

destruction of Charleston, for if Sod
ON and Gomorrah and the Cities of
the Plain deserved their fate, then
does Charleston deserve to have its

Sea. What crimes are laid up against

lives have been imm olated upon the
smoking affairs of her reasonable am
bition What an accumulation of
debt What a multitude of widows
and orphans curse her memoryl
Though New Orleans, and Mem
phis, and Richmond be captured and

he is sufficiently cunning to elude cv-

How THE REBELS LOST New ORLEAN,

How THE REBELS LOST New ORLEANS
A gentleman who left New Orleans
on the first inst. says that the Fede-
rails, after their war vessels had pas
sed the Forts, went to work with Irish
women, many Of whom had husbands
in the Forts, and gave them money
and urged them to advise their con-
nections to give up the contest. The
women did as requested, and the re-
suit was that three hundred and eighty
men spiked their guns and delivered
themselves up to the Federals.
Gen. Duncan, who was the rebel
of the Forts, is now a
prisoner on parole.
