Tho.Advertiser & Register has the follow
ing semi-oaicial dispatch, dated Fort Penn
berton, goth inst.
Gen. Loring has whipped the enemy back
from this point, and they are now in full re
treat. for the Yazoo Pass.
Aspecial dispatch TO the Appeal, dated the
10Th inst, says that the Federals engaged
in the raid upon fernando have retreated
The report Of their having abandoned the
Memphis and Charleston road is untrue, the
old tr ,ops being replaced by new, and the
old garrison taken to Memphis. The Mobile
and Ohio Railroad has been aband oned from
Jackson, Tenn, to Columbus, Ky.
Five hundred cavalry crossed the Coldwa-
ter sixty miles Northeast of here, and moved
towards Holly Springs.
The Appeal learns that there were no new
movements at Port Hudson. Banks had
failed back 10 his fortified camp, and mani
tests no disposition to advance.
Deserters continue 10 come in, and all re-
port dissatisfaction in their camps. The fleet
continues out of sight. The two vessels above
have been slowly stearning up the river.
They landed and cut down q few poles of the
telegraph line, carrying off the wire below
Natchez. The damage was quickly repaired
afterwards.

Summer will soon be upon us and, with

back their hordes without the solace Of a sim

and, wiea TOO late, they will find that, in at,
tempting to deceive tue world, they have

South and North All impossible gulf. From
this time forth. and until the end Of the war,
we have nothing to expect of them but ex'
libitions Of brutal feroc:ty aud every species
of bnrbarity which hate, cngendered by dis
appointment, can perpetratc. This sort Ol
conduct, unproroked by anything we have

We arc rcjoiced to hear from all quarters
of the wonderful healthfulness of our soldiers
in the field. 1t is comforting to te that
however our finances may be willing under
the number of adverse influences to which
they are now subjected, there is no deprecia-
ton Of Confederate bone and muscle. While
the enemy is from tune to timc shipping
from Stafford aud Murfreesborc such large
bodies of sick and deInoralzed troops as to
induce the belief that he is changing his
base, our men are eHjoying a vigor unprece
denied. This difference in the sanitary con.
dition Of the hostile armies is easily account
cd for. The Yankees are unwilling warriors,
and they sleep in tents. The hearts of our
soldiers are in the Contest, and having, fortu-
nately, worn put all their tents, and being
unable to procure new oheS, they take their
rest in the open air, with nothing above them
but their blankets and the canopy of heaven,
and in their universal robust condition il seen
the wisdom of the words Of the great Napo-
Icon, chat tents destroyed armies, and not

FIDELITY OF THE LOUISVILLE. LADIrs.--A
chaplain who remained with our wounded
who were left at Murfreesboro, when we re
tired from that place, has returned. Before
returuining to our lines he went to Louisville,
and describes in feeling language a visit to
Cavehill Cemetery, near that city. He was
carried to the lovely city of the dead by o
noble hearted c tizen of Louisville, whose
liberality and energy have given q proper
brutal to every Confederate soldier that has
died in the city. The grave OF every Con-
federate was raised, soided, and not q few
surrounded with flowers. The name of the
soldier. his State and regiment was letteted
in black on d neat white head-board, around
which hung a wreath of myrtle, the Christ
mas Offering of the true Southern ladies OF
Louisville to the noble dead. In the grounds
allotted to the burial of the Federal dead, he
found the graves sunken and uncared for, but
few having stones or boards or marks of any
kind.

ORGANIZATIONS BY the Governor.

Attention is directed to the two Proclamaiiona
of Gov. BoSuAM. We think there will be q sea-
eral response, IN a%c,ion, to hiS e1hortation upon
tho subject of planting corn. 1t appears that the
cry for help Is becoming more serious than ever
in <he Border States. IF we'll founded, it is our
duty to press every energy in the raising of pro-
visions. We disagree however to any sueh pTopo'
sition as that Of planting ne cotton except Tor
seed. It must BIO remembered that the people and
the armies have to DO clothed as we'll rs fed,-
that tho prices of cotton goods arc already aimos
beyond the reach Of the poor,-that the cotton On
hand may be abducted by trade in one way or
another,-nnd that the next year may find us In
as great q press for clothing as for food. Tha
blockade NAV become more %effoctual, and the
Government may find it almost impossible to
oloths the army s1cept~w with eur own nanufac-
tured goods. We therefore maintain shnt it is
right and prudent to cultivate some cotton oil
over the country. 1t might be o less amount than
that fixed by the Carolina and Georgia enact
msntn, and we venture to say that very few men,
under tho increasing pressure for prsrisiOns' will
plant up to that allowance. But that some cotton
should bs planted, say from one to three acrof
according to the quality Of land, does not seem I"
US to admit OF doubt. Still, it i, also true that
the country must be supplied riM breadst46s, and
wa hope that ell cur farmers will do as the Gov
ornor suggests, plant even less cotton than they
had expected to do, and BY NIL means give cioSo
and constant attention to the corn crop.
The other Proclamation, forbiddins the e1por-
tation Of provisions beyond tho State, HAS q pO-
tent voice of its own and will DO respected accord
ingly.
In addition. to what is ieid above of thn ilnpor-
lance of raising soms cotton, we would suggest an
item that may not be altogether inconsidsrAble in
tho estimate Of our cotton wants 1t IS the Item
of paoer,-important not only to newspaper men
but to the whole country. The high price of cot
ton In the Unitsd States has made oven rags tso
precious to go to tho paper mills, and wo are told
by the New York papers that suspension il nj
hand NTH many Of them OH this account. Ihat
is all right 50 far as they ore concerned. But here
in our glorious young Confsderacy this is not do
sired, and need not DO SO If we raisc & partial crop
of cotton. OF oOurse wo nro ready to shy with
the most patriotic, let paper and clothes 60 10y the
board if it is necessary to the production of
enough bread and meat but VIC cannot yot be-

The London Index, reviewing the debate in

The London lader, reviewing the debate in
Parliament on the American war, says
There is no doubt thst the refusal 10 recog.
nize the South arises from the fear of offend
ing the North. We are convinced that the
fear is grouudlcss, and by the refusal to do
this simple act Of justice We are laying up
for ourselves bitter and lasting cnmity. Wien
the wal does end-whsn tue North wakes
from her dream and finds herself ruined, she
will r~eproaeh us that ne stood anxiously,
yet idly looking on, and not only refused to
stretch forth a hand to snatch her from her
peril, but even encouraged her to persevcre
in her disastrous course by refusing to Off
cially warn her of the hopeles,ness OF the
struggle. We cannot agree with Mr.. Dis
raeli that it is polite or dignitied for this, The
mother country of the Anglo. Saxon race,
not to make some effort, at all events the
moral effort Of recognition, to stop the war.
At present the United States could NOT re-
sent such q measure hereafter they would
thank US for it. Now, if they desired 10 do
so, although it is the eleventh honr, recogni-
ton would make the South our ally. against
any future aggression Of the North but if
the war goes on to the bitter end we shall be
without a friend on the continent Of America.
1t seems to US thai the policy Of ~inaction is
cruel, unjust, and impoliric."

SHALL SPECULATION be LONGER TOLHEA-
rED?-We are glad 10 learn, from various ex
pressions Of opinion, that popular attention
is turning seriously to this question. We
mean, of course, to speculation in the neces
saries of life. 1t is apparent to every observ.
ing man that speculation has much TO do with
the prevailing high prices. The old standard
Of ' supply and demand" is constantly refer
red to by those who apologize for speculation;
ald it is insisted that nothing but g scarcity
inadequate to the demand, enhances prices.
This test would be a good one, if all the sup
ply was In the market for sale. But the tact
is notorious that immense supplies of provis-
ions are held up by spectators for still high
er prices. We have 10 doubt of the truth of
the assertion, that there was never before half
the amount Of corn slowed away in Columbus
as at the present time yet the article Com.
mands a higher price than it has for uanv
years before. 1t has been bought for specu-
lation, and the spectators are still buying,
and prices constantly advancing. That the
heavy operations of these dealers have run
up the only kinds of breadstufs that the great
mass of the people can at present afford to
eat, to the prevailing extraordinary price, is
beyond question.
1t is believed, moreover, that the store.
rooms OF dealers contain very large quantities
of sugar, syrup, salt, &C., which are not Of
fered for sale at even the high prices now III.
ling, but are held up for still higher figures.
1t is not so much an inadequate supply as
tina withdrawal of that supply from market,
tina makes scarcity aud high prices.-Colum-
buA Enquirer.
