With the theory Of his profession

Corinth, through Mississippi. Alabama. Geor-
eia. North Carolina. and Virginia, and made
every Observation that Yankee can make,
they told their friends. on their arrival, that
the whole South was filled with corn and po-
tatoes, and that there would only be cotton
enough raised to furnish seed for the next
year. This is emphaticaly true. We have
every prospect Of a most abundant season.
Fruit and vegetables Of every kind will be
very abundant.
Mark what we say, this war will no. ont
last the fruit and vegetable season. Before
the harvest moon is passed the war will be
practically ended. And spectators, who
think they can dive into the future further
than others, win find themselves under q
deadfall. To some there will be fear Of
too much dry weather. others will be afraid
Of too much rain this is always the case.
But as there is tenfold the quantity Of grain
and vegetables planted this season in the
South than in any former year, we may rea-
sonably calculate that we shall reap in pro-
portion to what we have sown. The def,
cheney in flour will be more than compensat-
ed by the quantity Of corn and vegetables.
As yet we have meats of The finest quality ;

and passed that body by vote of so TO d.

Three members from slave States voted yea.
The bill adopted is much stronger than any

$4,000. and his estate, except slaves, shall
be seized. For melting rebellion or giving
il aid and comfort. Forfeiture of personal
property, ten years in prison. $4,000 fine,
and slaves set free. The President is au-
thorized to seize the property Of ali such
persops and convey the proceeds to the Gov
eminent. He is to proclaim that II IN sixty
two days Rebels do not return TO allegiance,
their property shall be forfeited, Slaves OF
persons engaged in rebellion, or who give

the claimant shall make oath that he has not
borne arms in the present rebellion. or given
aid and comfort thereto. No person engag-
ed in naval or military service shall decide
on he.yalidiiy of the claim or surrender such
slaves. on pain of being dismissed from the
service. The President is authorised to
employ as many persons Of African descent
for the suppression Of the rebellion as he
may think ft, and use them in such manner
as he may deem best for the public welfare,
and he is also authorized to make provision:
for colonizing the blacks beyond the limits

FROM THE VALLEY.

From the most direct information we
have from the Valley. we infer that matters
are bright for the Confederate cause. We
published few days ago some statements
based upon intelligence received from gen
tleman who came through from Winchester
last week. We have since been permitted
to extract iron letter received BY a gentle
man in this city from member OF the cavalry
corps now commanded BY Sen. b. II. Rob-
ertson. This letter confirms all that has pre-
yiousiy been stated with reference to the
frequent desertions from the Federal army
of the Valley, and the Discrimination OF the
Yankee troops there TO engage our forces.
The statements OF the writer may be regard
ed as reliable, as he sustains the character
OF man Of integrity and Intelligence. lie
says:
" The Yankees are leaving the Valley rap
idly. They have considerable amount Of
supplies az Winchester yet, and we will ell

city and between Ii and the Big Bayou are
Familiarity known as Terrilrs Bluffs. About
ten miles By river. south from vicksburg. Is
q little town called Warrenton, lying also
some distance, perhaps mile, from the
Mississippi. Big Bayou isa stream of con-
siderable dimensions, which enters the Mis-
sissippi about three, miles above Warrenton
and seven from Vicksburg.
The main stream of the Big Bayou runs
nearly due west for seven or eight miles,
but there is another branch Of it which rises
to the rear Of Vicksburg, and runs FIVE miles
almost parallel with the Mississippi, at about
the distance Of three miles, until it flows in.
to the Bayou two miles and a half from the
river.
| The SUBMITS of the bluffs below the city
are level and thickly covered with forests
and underground. The country is exceed
lingly fertile and productive. The bluffs are
in all probability, not less than one hundred
feet above the river. "Walnut hills, above
the city, are Of the same character as Ter
irilPs bluffs" and admirable for defence
against gunboat approach.
II has been proved and isgenerally known
that the gunboals can seldom act effeciually
against batteries on bluff, as the former arr
so built that the desired elevations are not t.
be obtained, while the bluff batteries have az
advantage in the fact that weak parts Of The
lgunboats are exposed.

rAIrH AsIp THE Bu.LoWs.

When the storm of war Hrst arose upon
our political main, and our new ship OF state,
which had been so auspiciously launched,
found itself amid tempests and darkness, a
very general sentimental confidence IN God
prevailed. The belief in special Proyi-
dence seems to have found ready entrance
into the popular mind. Religious men re-
ioiced 10 what appeared to be evident tokens
of the Divine favor, and men, who had be-
fore seemed Indifferent or skeptiesl, were
heard to express their earnest belief IN the
special manifestations Of Proyidential regard
for our cause. In the midst OF storm and
darkness, the national faitb seemed to discern
aform like the Son Of God," walking
upon the sea. Like Peter and the other
Disciples on the ship in - deep Galiiee," we
welcomed the presence Of infinite Power and
Goodness, and our fears were dispeiled. IL
NAV be that presumptioa end temerity were
the consequence. We vanity presumed TO
tread the preesrious path alone; We rashly
ventured unaided to step out upon the yield :
ing pillows. We grew too self-eonfident.
Our victories SO numerous and brilliant
seemed to Us, 10 our faulty, evidences OF our
inyincibility, and absorbed in the rapid sue
cession Of thrilling movements, We ceased TO
look TO Divine aid. 81 s1
But while We we're dreaming Of indepen-
dence easily achieved and nationality gIorI-
ousiy won by our own unaided proves,
suddenly the heavens grow black, the e'e-
mental forces marshal themselves for ter
rife onslaught upon our new rugged bark,
the tempest RACES and the pillows rcll noun
tain high. We are startled IRON our dream
ofsecurity and felicity. Both self-possession
and faith are gone. We see only the dark
enipg skies above, the raging tempest around.
. the yielding waters beneath and bewildered
and affrighted we cry out, lord save.
we PERISH We had forgotten the Power

Peters Githlessncss, and bade the winds and
waves be still. may De heard demonstrating
with Us for our want Of faith. FzE
In the midst OF peril, let Us MOI forget our
dependence on the Divine arm. With OUT
eyes Fixed mot upon he bewldering and
frighdsl dangers--but upon. Him, who com.
mandeth the winds and seas and they obey
him, we shall neither falter nor siuk, bul
