Dissolution INADMIssABI.E-The idea that the
North and the great Northwest will ever permit
q separate and independent government to hold
the Gulf States and the Southern territory bor
dering upon the Mississippi, is one that no man
whose reason has not become mistified by seces-
sion can think Of entertaining. The mouth Of
the Mississippi must and will be held under the
control Of the United States Government, as
long as that Government exists. If years OF
war; and men and money beyond all that have
yet been supplied necessary TO effect this
they will be freely given. Even if the Atlantic
States were willing to admit the severance o
Louisiana from the Union, the West would never
consent-no, never.
The arguments used by the leading statesmen
and patriots for the acquisition Of Louisiana, not
only retain all the force which they had in the
beginning Of the present century but they have
acquired hundred fold greater intensity now
that the Valley of the upper Mississippi is crowd
ed with industrious millions, for the outlet Of
whose produce in grain, &c, the Mississippi is
indispensable. If, when the population Of the
Northwest barely exceed few hundreds, and its
products we're less than those Of single State
at the present time, the most sagdcious and pa
riotc of our citizens felt that the control of the
Mississippi from its source to its mouth was de-
srablo the progress of events has made it ne
cessity-a necessity so great that whatever peo
ple wrest that control from the Government of
the United States must first destroy the Govern
mrnt. Money cannot purchase it-diplOmacy
cannot secure t-Nothing can ever secure it but
the destruction Of the Union. The mississippi
can neuer he yieldea to any other po1cer long as
,ce hare an Anierican Union. Peace men as
we'll as traitors may as well bear this in mind

SARCAsTC.-The Richmond Inquirer (John

that erratc ndividua to its ancient friends In
a recent number il thus rdcules the speech Of
S. s. Cox, an Ohio copperhead, who tried to Sc
duce South Carolina from her Confederate al
legance by promises of Democratic sympathy
"The seductive song Of the impassioned swain
means {: Help us, Carolina, TO Democratic
ticket for next Congress, and you shall hare part
Of the stealinqs Have we not always, OH, child
Of the sun, lived and loved, and stolen together
How often have our hands met in the same pocket
of the innocent public, and fondly pressed one
another? TTthout our dear South, tie Democratic
parfy can plnnaer no more. Without thee that
once unierrfed party pines in solitude and des-
pair: it is one blade Of pair Of scissors it is
the half of a hook and eye So sings the swain
Of Ohio. viii Carolina harken to the gay Sc
ducer."

IycoXsIsTENT.-Seces and their abctiors
seem to have forgotten the arguments they urged
with such pertnacity q short time ago The Os.
tend Manifesto was favorte doctrine with them.
and they were filed with the spirit of fllibuster.
ing. "Cuba must be ours" they said. Why ?
Not because it formed part of our Territory,
for leagues Of ocean separated it from us Not
because we had any right acquired either by dis
covery, purchase, treaty or pOssession-but, it
must be ours, because its possession was ind
pensable to the welfare of the United States.
No other plea was made by them No other ar
gument offered. The fact that the welfare
of the United States" rendered the acquisition of
Cuba necessary, justified, according to their for
mer arguments, n war with Spain. How those
who were in favor Of the acquisition of Cuba for
the above reason, can advocate the separation of
the Union now, is beyond our comprehension. Is
not the Mississippi necessary to the welfare of
our Union? Are not Florida, Alabama, the Car
olinas, Virginia and Kentucky necessary? If the
was good for the acquisition of Cuba,
it is better for the preservation of the Union, and
men who have urged it in favor of the one are
grossly Inconsistent when they ignore its appl.

IIooKER's ARMY.-From all the dispatches
before us in regard to the bold movement of
Gen Hooker upon the rebel stronghold, we are
satisfied that the days of rebellion are numbered,
and that the recent struggle is but prelude to
an overwhelming success TO the Union arms
The daring feat of crossing the river in the face
of an intrenched foe, driving them from their
fortlications destroying their railroads in their
rear killing and woundng ten thousand, taking
six thousand prisoners, fighting equal numbers
on their own chosen ground for four or five days
in succession and re-crossing the river in safety,
demonstrate the superior bravery, pluck and
galantry Of the Federal soldiers. We look up
on the movement as part Of a well laid plan TO
learn the enemy's strength and position, and by
suddenly recrossng the Rappahannock, to draw
the enemy, if possible, across in pursuit. where
his destruction will be certain. Hentzleman's
forces, with others which will be speedily hurried
forward, will enable Hooker to again re cross aud
chasise the enemy much more than in the recent
grand reconnaissance. 4 few more such move
ments and the Confederate army will collapse
from utter exhaustion. \ Graft of oue-half mil.
lion fresh men to back up our veterans now in
the field, will make the destruction of the rebels
beyond peradventure. All praise is due to
Gen Hooker and his gallant officers and brave
men who have thus nobly fought and bed in their
country cause, and eternal iniamy should be
branded upon the grinning Copperheads who
chuckle over the fall of gallant dead and wish
the Internal traitors success in their damnable
cause.

of cotton would in great measure cease,
as an article for manufacturing purposes.
As there are no prospects at present of an
adequate supply Of cotton being furnished
for several years, our farmers should at
once commence tue raising of fax, as one
of their crops.
1t is stated that from the fax raised
on one acre ofgroand about fourteen bush
els of seed can be obtained, aud for the
seed alone the crop is not unremuuerative.
Six hundred pounds of fibre can be raised
upon one acre of ground. At thirty cents

and eighty dollars. Never before has such
