gyman Of some n0te in Tennessee, has, accord
ing TO the kiebmeud Enquirer, just resuru-
TO the South after Il visit of six weeks To Se
free Staiea. MIR. Graves publishes in tie Ea-
quirer an account of what he saw. The resulta
are not enc, ufuging to the rebels; nor do they
confirm the mauy prophecies Of the Charleston
and Richmond journals as TO The distress AMI
poverty which would PROSTATE the free States
shortly. He says:
Il shall state the substance Of what learned
in New Y Tork, during stay OF thres weeks,
from merchants, bankers and lawyers, 10 regard
10 public sentiment throughout the entire
North Aud this is it. Tte whole North is
prospering. growing rich, in consequence q the
war. The commercial and manufacturing iu-
terests of the northeastern States, are now
! more fourshing ihau ever before. Every
thing made finds ready market

Politically, Mr.. Graves assures the Euqui-

hope may be Of benefit TO US, really amounts
to nothing SO far as ending the war is ooueer-

Financially, lie draws picture which niust
FIJI the rebel leaders hearts With bitterness and
envy:
with gold enough to manage foreign IN

Government money aud securities. In 10 IN

will not be tho first to sci the example"
| Mr. Graves is pretty accurately Informed,
and he does not hesitate TO tell what he knows.
| lie continues, OF the spirit Of the Free States:
/ They have now discovered that the rebel

strength TO suppress it. They confess that
they have been hitherto uupreparcd 10 meet
it successfully. But the time is coming
/ Their people are slow to .move-much slower
than we-but now they are rousing, and
when they do take hold. il viii be with bull
dog obstinacy. When the time comes to ex-
ecute the emancipation proclamation they
will have fifteen new war vessels Of tie most
formidable character completed aud on our
waters. in addition TO their present navy they
will have a million Of disciplined, weiLarmed
troops 10 the field, and if the rebelleon thon
holds OUT
then, Sir. Graves assures hia readers, scenes
Of horror viii be witnessed.
He gees en- to say that the North has but
to put forth its power; that the people are
united in their determination to put down
rebellion ;; and that they WILL Go and sufitr eve
rythiug4o that end. Therefore, he telis tAe
rebels to make up their minds for iong war
