slightest ground for cheerful hope at pres.

the end we will hive to make peace with
radical abolitionists. The public sentimcn,
in shc North is rapidly working round, bu,
not in our favor. The radical abolition ele
ment, which declares against reunion and
opposition to the re-estabishment of our
former political relations, is, after all, near.
est to what we want and will have. After
having made war upon us for two years
now, as that party is going out of power,
it favors peace on our own terms; while

meet US with reconstruction.n

SNOW flakes, and tantrums, while the thur

morning dawned, the snow lay full eighteen
inches deep on the level. 1t was grand

cepted it as the sequel Of the late electrical

CENTRAL DEPOT FOR MILwAUKEE.-We
see by the Milwaukee papers that the Fro
ject Of central depot, and connecting lines
Of railway through the city, is again being
urged. 1t seems strange that the great
commercial city Of Wisconsin has for so
long time been blind to her interests, and
allowed trade and travel to be diverted to
Chicago, which otherwise would have en-.
riched her Golfers, and doubled the earnings
of her roads. The Chicago & Northwestern
Road, now finished to Green Bay, is an
ever increasing cut off to the cream city,
and the Beoit & Madison r. r. extension
to Portage City now in contemplation, "a
branch of the Galena & Chicago r. K. }
will still further draw from Milwaukee the
trade which naturally seems to belong to
her. Already, the larger part Of the i'm

bled up by the Northwestern Railroad, at
Milton Junction, and nc person going east

There is no doubt that Chicago has been
outwitting Milwaukee, but it is not too late
for the latter to interpose check if she
has the disposition.

OPENING OF THE MISSISSIPPI Whether
the Mississippi, for its entire length, shall
be opened this season to the trade of the
Northwest, IS problem which bids fair
soon to be solved. Operations must take
place immediately, or the water will recede,
and the heavy draught gunboats and ocean
vessels which are expected to assist in the
reduction Of Port Hudson and Vicksburg
will be compelled to fall back. If the land
and naval forces shall succeed in capturing
these points, it will be a terrible blow for
the rebels, and great source of congratu-

. AANnN
Thc Union Movement.
All over the country we hear accounts of
the rise and progress of the UNION PARTY,
as an aggregation of loyal, and conservative
Republicans and Democrats.
Ever since the mammoth meeting at
Cooper Institute, New York, gatherings of
the people have been held in prominent
towns and cities in all the loyal statcs.--
These meetings are signslized by an abne.
CATION Of party, and vows Of fidelity to the
Constitution and the Union, such as were
made when it was first learned that the
rebels had begun throwing shot and shell
at the devoted garrison in Fort Sumter.
The telegraph brings US the announce.
mcnt Of an unconditional Mass Meeting of
Union men at Toledo, Ohio, on the 18th
inst. Letters were read from Daniel S.
Dickinson, Gov. Tod, Gen. Cass, John Van
Buren,, Jas. 7. Brady, John Cochranc, and
others, endorsing in the most earnest man
nor the grand movement for the Union of
the States. Enthusiastic speeches were
made By eloquent gentlemen present, and
the enthusiasm was increased by tele
graphic dispatch from the Ohio troops at
Murfreesboro, giving their concurrence in
the grand Union League organization. The
Union resolutions Of the Cooper Institute
meeting were also adopted word for word.

Uniou Of the States, should be he watch
