WoOL.-After considerable inquiry aud OBJ
servatOn We are at loss what to say about the
price of wool. There has been no rate agreed
upon between buyers and sellers as vet, and the
pricea taared and the prices asked are
entirely too far apart to enable us to
form any judgment ss to what wool should
bring In our opinion growers VIII do we'll to
hold their wool lill late In the season, when they
will be likely TO obtain much better price
than they could realize by selling now. Con.
trary to tho statements Of eastern buyers,
va aesett that, compared with, former sea-
sons, there Is very little Of the clip fof
1862 now on hand, neither Is there large
stock Of wOollen goods now In the hands Of Job
bers, manufactured and others. The Govern
ment will require large amount OF wooden
materials for soldiers blankets and uniforms,
and this, together with the wants of those In
civil lie, will create a great demand for wool,
and OF course 1t will bring remunerativa prices.
ThoEo Is not enough cotton in the whole South,
we're IL all released to-day, to materially effect
the demand for and consequent prico OF wool.
Ii farmers will hold on 20 this years clip, we
predict they will yet get from so cents to $I per
pound for IL. There has been but one or two

The New ConTederacy and tho New
Union,

What has been apparent fer years has now
become clearly and fully developed, namely
this-that there are in this country two revolu-
tionary parties, whose joint action, while In
seeming antsgonism, has involved US in all the
horrors Of an expensive, bloody, and to all
appearance, an interminable civil war. As re-
CARDS the Union, the positions Of the two par
ties are these: The one, the Southern or Sc
cesslon party, desires to erect, ont Of part Of
the old Union, a new Independent Union or
Confederacy; the other, the Northern or Abo-
htion party, is resolved to make q new Union
out of the territory OF the old Union, or 60
much of it as can be retained.
The chief difference between the two parties
on this point is on question of territory-the
Southern revoIutIonists being willing to take
part Of the old territorial domain Of the Union
for their new Coufederacy, aud tho Northern
revolutionists insisting upoa having the whole
for the establishment OF their new Union.
There Is also this further difference, that the
Southern revolutionists have agreed upon a
Constitution or settled form Of Government for
their rew Confederacy; while the Northern rev.
olutionists leave their followers and the world
in doubt as to what is to be the political char
acter of the new Uoion they propose to estab-
lish. One thing they appear to have settled
definitely, at least to their own satisfaction,
namely, that their new Government is to be
tl.slavery-that is, the freedom Of all "per-
sons Of African descent" is to be secured, what
ever may become Of the liberties of white
men.
Some of the revolutionary leaders 10 the
North talk as though they would do as the
Southern reyolutionists have done-adopt for
their new Government the Constitution of the
Union as it was, with some alterations, amend.
ments and improvements suited to the new or
der Of things. A. few insist upon retaining the
old Constitution as good enough; but generally
the current seems 10 be strongly setting among
them In favor Of new Constitution as we'll
as new Union. a.sI.

Capt. Halps Second Arctic Expedition.

tion brought forward In the City Councils to
appropriate q sum Of money to aid Csps.7C. F.
HALL in the projected renewal OF his expIora-
tions In the Arctic regions, says:
Capt Hall is man of great intelligence and
ability, and is devoted heart and soul to the
work of exploring the unknown regions which
surround the North Pole Unlike tho English
adventurers who have undertaken tho same
task, he relics exclusively for aid on the Esqui.
maux whom he fiuds on route, and with whom
he has established relations OF mutual conf
deuce and friendship He brought eeveral Of
them with him to this country on his return
from his recent voyage. He finds them much
more serviceable than any Europeans or Ame-
rlcans whom he could take with him. They are
accustomed to the climate, understand the ways
of overcoming the obstacles encountered by
such an expedition, and are heartily devoted to
those in whose service they enlist. Capt. Hall
is encouraged In this enterprise by the active
sympathy and efforts of some OF our most in
fuential citizens, and any aid that may be given
him by the City Government will be well be-
slowed.

They can run a bu ming plough-share over the
hot-beds Of ruling fanaticlsm, from which
sprang the hate turned loose on the South.
II our President will but announce and per-
NIT such policy, he will be justified In the
eyes of the civilized world, and will evoke o
new spirit In the South that has never yet been
called into action. Thousands Of men are just
thrust out with cruelty and ignominy from Lou
isiana, Tennessee, Kentucky and Maryland,
and they are tblrsting' to 80 back with fire and
sword. Thousands more OF our people, who
have folt that mere defense Of our own land 10
not the true policy, would DO stirred to their
inner depths at the trumpet call OF invasion.
We believe firmly, that myriads az the North
are prepared TO take refuge In our ranke from
the storm OF despOtlSm that 10 darkening around
them.
If Il be necessary, In order to save ourselves
from cavalry raids and negro masBacres, that
we should raise the war cry Of "Blue Bonnels
over the Border" 30 be II. Wo have struggled
long and faithfully 10 meet the exiBenoles OF
this contest In fair, open, and manly hight;
but when the demons of hell are to DO turned
loose on our beautiful land, and it's civilization
choked atnid blood and flames, We must, In self
defense, pour back tho fell tide OF ruin on our
barbAriaa foes, and mako them sing, amid the
fallen glores of their once thriving cities, the
song OF the Persian poet:
The spider has woven his web and the owl hath sung
the towers OF Apaslab." tUL
We shall meet the truculent Yankees as tho
Indian Conanchet did when they sought his ole
lance, after numbering his people and devas'
tating his land. He raised himself proudly to
his full height, and replied;

people turned the heart OF Conanchet to stone.'

MAn Important Discovery.,

Under this head the New York Tines, q lead.
ing Administration organ, makes the following
piquant and interesting announcement. Can 1t
be that the Mr.. LYNCH referred to is a near rel
ative of the celebrated and ubiquitous judge of
the same name1 The Times seems to hint that
he is. But here is what il says:
We find the name of "Mr. S. G. Lynch"
signed to 10 card avowing himself the "acting
supervisor" on behalf of the Government Of
telegraphic dispatches from Washington to the
newspaper Press. We welcome this tardy rev.
elation OF the pereon who is responsible for the
extraordinary performances in the matter OF
transmitting news, which have 80 long excited
the wonder Of the outside world. We have felt
his existence and activity for long time. He
has done more to mislead the country, damage
the reputation of the Press, and encourage pro-
family among its members, than all other de-
partmen,s Of the G0vernment-Whch is saying
q good deal. We never expected to know his
name; but the age which witnessed the dlscov-
cry OF tho head Of the Nile has revealed IT,
We are no. surprised to find that il is Lynch.
A little reflection would have assured US OF that
in advance. Wefeel emboldened to ask favor
at his hands. Now that he stands before the
world, personally responsible Tor his suppressions
and manipulations Of army news, we beg him,
for his own sake as well as for ours, TO exercise
II Ii be not too much trouble, little common
sense The merest trihe of that commodity
would raise bis reputation immensely, and would
put the whole newspaper world and the rest OF
mankind under everlasting ob!igalions. Try,

The French Elections.

The result of the elections In France, which
took place On the Ia. and Cd Of June, for men,
bers of the new Legislative Body or Chamber
of Deputies, Is not yet fully known. But \
appears that, though in the late Chamber the
Opposition or Liberal party had only FIVE mem
beFs, Il will have in tie new from thirty to thir'
ty.five deputiea. This result was unexpected
as the most sanguine Of the Opposition only
hoped TO secure the election of twenty, or at
most of twenty five members. Both parties In
Frsnce are Represented as regarding this elec-
tion as the first reaction of the spirit o Democ-
racy againa. absolutism and despotism.
A Paris letter OF June S, published in the
Journal OF Commerce, states in regard to these
elections that, although ln the provinces Gov
ernment influence and official pressure almost
universally prevailed, in Paris the direct con-
trary was the case, and the Government sus-
tanned such defeat and received such Lesson as
i. has not met with In the course OF lie exist
ence. 10 every one of the nine electoral dis
tricts OF tho French Capital, an opposition car
didste of the most marked character hes been
placed at the head Of the poll. So much for the
effort of the G .verninent, on The one side to
coax and Wheedle the metropolis into good hu-
NOR by endless embellishments and unlimited
outlay, and on the other, to drive 1t into subms-
sion by threatening semi official circuaTs, by
muzzliDg the press, repreesing freedom ofsfeech
and other odiOus aud oppressive measures.
Among the members Of the Legislative Body
chosen from Paris, the election of the celebrated
M. THEIRS from the second district is mentioued
as particularly annoying to the Government
1t had been announced to the electors By high
official functionary, NJ de PERHesY, that M,
THEIRS was regarded as an implacable enemy
by the Imperial Government, "and yet" says
the New York Tribune Of June IL, "the second
district of the Capital chose this enemy of the
Government by majority Of thirteen hundred
votes"
The aggregate vote cast in Paris shows to
what extent the Government has lost ground
since the last election 10 1857. Then the votes
for the Government candidates in the different
capital districts were llO, O,534, while the oppo-
stion votes we're but 97,763. This year the
Government polled only S2,lO7 votes, while the
votes for tho nine Opposition candidates arc
over 10000. AS 10 still true that Paris is
France, these figures speak volumes for the
reaction Of public opinion against the arbitrary
and tyrAnnical course pursued by the Imperial
Government.

From the Cincinnati Enquirer, June sEh.l
TO the Patrons Of KENYON College.

The following was sent to US by student.
The tacts can be relied on:
Feeling that 1t 10 unbecomipg an undergrad
uate to critcise publicly the acts of the College
Faculty, the writer wishes TO present to the pa
irons OF Kenyon College and the public gener-
ally, plain statement of the facts. In Noyem-
ber, 1862, a large Democratic county meeting
WAS held in Mt. Vernon, which place is Eve
miles from Gambler, the site OF Kenyon COL
lege. A petition very generally signed by the
students was presented to the Faculty, asking
permission to attend the meeting. The petition
was not granted. On the first Of May, Vallan.
digham, Pendleton, Cox and other Distinguish
cd gentlemen addressed the Democracy assem-.
bled in Mass Convention at Mt. Vernon. On
applying for leave Of absence the students were
informed by the Faculty that il had long been
precedent in the College not to allow students
to attend any description Of public meetings in
Mt. Vernon. They were informed that it was
q rule that, under no circumstances will stu
dents be allowed 70 attend political meetings OF

Obedience to Law.

Every public servant, az well Gs every pri-
vate citizen, should hold obedience to law as
paramount duty. By firmly adheriDg to this
self-eyident truth, we oil travel in the path oil
safety By departing from it, there ia danger
and that continually.
The present condition of our country fully dc
monstrates the truth of what We say. All our
present evils arise from disobedience to the laws
Of the land, and the sooner that public servants
and private citizens recognize their duty in this
respect and return to faithful discharge Of it,
the better will It be for US, and the sooner will
order and peace be evolved out OF the present
confused, anomalous and sad condition Of af-
fairs.
Mr.. LINCOLN or Gov. ToD has no more right
to violate the Fundamental or statute law OF the
land than JOHN Doe or RICHARD Roe, albeit the
claim may be set up for them, that the violation
is intended to promote the public good.
If the public servant violates the law or sus-
pends its due operation and execution, the clti'
en- will not be slow to follow the example and
take the law in his sown hands or resist such law
90 he does not like.
We have time and again urged upon all who
read the STATEsMAN the duty Of obedience to
law, and pointed out the remedy and the only
remedy which should be thought Of, where laws
are deemed Unconstitutional or oppressive, viz:
An appeal to the Courts and the Ballot-Box. II
our rulers and those who defend them are SO
struck with judicial blindness as to disregard
Constitution and law, aud set up their own des-
potic caprice instead Of the laws Of the land,
we would nevertheless urge on the people to
hold fast to their integrity, and to "bear all
things and endure all things" go that in them
the great doctrine Of obedience to law may be
msgnifed and exalted
10 this hour of darkness to our country, we
would impress this duty upon every man. Our
only hope is in firm and resolute determine.
tion to obey the laws and look to their due ad-
minisration and faithful execution for the safe
tysof the State and the people. Where those laws
Z are regarded as unconstitutional or unjust, let
us look to tho courts aud the ballot-box for a
remedy. Itmay be slow; itmay be thwarted by
corrupt or ignorant men in power. The people
may be oppressed, as they have been and doubt.
less will be, and vain men with little brief au-
thority and Of doubtful patriotism, may lord It
over them for season, but. in the end justice
and right will prevail. " ~
