HE great centrai uespotlsin AT washington. as
they were pleased to call ii, was at any time
previous to the commencement of the seces-
sion movement. and even for some time after
1t had commenced, most mild and benefcent
government compared with the central despo-
tism at Richmond, under which we are now
living.
Instead of an early and permanent estab-
lishment of the "weaIthest and best govern
ment in the world, with unbounded credit"
what have we got? In spite of all the victo-
ries they profess to have obtained over the
Yankees, they have lost the states of Missouri,
Kentucky, Arkansas, Texas, Louisiana, Mis-
sissippi and Tennessee, and, in my humble
opinion, have lost them forever, and in all
probability Alabama will soon be added to the
number. This will leave to the coniederacy
but five states out of the original thirteen, and
of these five the Yankees have possession of
many OF the most important points, and one
third of their territory. So far, the Yankees
have never failed to hold every place of i'm
portance they have taken, and present indica-
lions are that Charleston will soon be added
to the number The campaign of Gen. Lee
into Pennsylvania has undoubtedly proved a
failure, and with il the last hope OF conquering
peace by successful invasion of the enemy's
| country. Our army has certainly been very
much weakened and dispirited by this failure,
and the fall of Vicksburg and how long even
Richmond will be safe no one can tell As the
Richmond Enquirer said some time ago, "They
are slowly. but surely gaining upon us, acre by
| acre, mile by mile. and unless Providence in
terposes in our behalf-of which see no ind-
cations,-we will, at no great distance of time
be a subjugated people.
The writer speaks of the failure to create a
credit based upon the security Of "King Cot
| ton," shows how some of the Confederate
States have dscredited the currency of the
| Confederacy, that other nations have no conf
dence in it, aud says that everybody knows
that the leaders, in that state at least, with
few honorable exceptions, will neither fight
nor negotiate.
In Feb, 1861, the Legislature of North Car
olina appointed Commissioners to the Mont
gomery Convention, and on the motion of the
writer of the article before us, the resolution
appointing these Commissioners was amended
so as to instruct them ito act only as media
tors, and use every effort possible to re-
| store the Union upon the basis of the
Crittenden propositions as modified by the
Legislature of Virginia. Upon their return
these Commissioners submitted report to

The French at Jalapa.
JALAPA, Dec.

JALAPA, Dec. l, 1862.
The column Of Gen, Berthier, 5000 strong, is
now encamped at Jalapa, pretty city of abou,
$4,000 .habitahts, well shaded with nice rows
OF trees and watered with several brooks and
fountains The French we're TO sooner encamped
in the squares of the city than large handbills
written in the Spanish language, and signed BY
Gen. Forey, were posted on the principal build
inss, inviting all the inhabitants to unite with
them in restoring order and peace to the dis
tracted republic, and offering protection and Sc
curity to all. This proclamation acted very ia
vorabIy upon the minds of the inhabitants, who
came from all parts of the country to bring
their goods to market. Vegetables and fruits
were abundant, but more substantial provisions
were very scarce. The fact is, the produce Of
the inexhaustible fields of Perote, Haxcala. San
Martin, Termahican, and Tehuacan, nearly under
the very ewes of the French, could not reach the
city on account of the numerous bands of guer-
rillas lowering around and preventing the inbub
itants from bringing it to market. The French,
on their side, being deprived of the proper means
of TRANSPORTATION. could not have been benefited
by raid in the interior of these rich fields; be-
sides, they were engaged in another expedition,
which claimed the concentration of all their
available forces.
TIE city of Jalapa has not been reached by
the French column without fatigue and consid-
erable trouble. You will have an idea of it when
tell you that to come from Puente National, q
magnificent bridge constructed by the Span
iards to this place, the distance of about thirty
miles, Gen. Berthier has occupied about ten days
that is to say, has marched about three miles
a day. If this was to be accepted as the rate Of
speed of the French soldiers through Mexico,
the French army would not reach the capitsl

Hymn for The Hour.
The Angels Of Freedom are calling;
Their music is borne from the sky;
The chains of the bondmen are falling;
The jubilee morning is nigh.
Now chant ye the mighty evangel,
And hasten the spirit to free;
For Liberty's beautiful Angel
Hath come from the Father to thee.
There is not bosom but pineth
To burst from all slavish control;
TO bask in the brightness that ehineth
To-day from the Iufinite Soul.
Make way for the life bringing Angel,
And hasten the spirit to free;
For Liberty's holy evangel
Hath come from the Father to thee.
The stars in their glory are singing;
The race of oppression is run;
For slaves into heroes are springipg,
And Love binds the nations in one.
Christ comes in the Liberty Angel;
He hastens the spirit to free;
And speaks through the holy evargel
That comes from the Father to thee.

ILLINOIS SUaAR.-Mr. Scripps, editor of the
Schuyler Citizen, presented us yesterday with
sample of sugar, Of his own manufacture from
the Otabeitan cane. Without exception, in the
many qualities considered by dealers as so re-
auisite in good sugar, the specimen from Schuy.
ler county is the best we have yet seen made in
this State. Fully seven-eighths of the molasses
made from this description of cane, will granu-
late, and Mr.. Scripps obtained with very little
trouble and by the aid OF common cooking
stove over one hundred pounda of superior
sugars better quality than the average
sold in stores-in the same proportion from the
svrup AZ mentioned above. The cultivation of
sugar cane is not the only profitable crop to
which the farmers of Schuyler county have Of
late turned their attention, it is estimated that
over ten thousand pounds Of tobacco, of excel
lent quality, were raised for export the present
season. Samples of the same which were shown
in Peoria, are said to equal any of the choicest
varieties raised in Virginia.-[PeoriaT Transcript.
