PARTICULARS OF THE Destruction THE Town
COMMERCE, MIss.-The following statement is copied
from the Memphis (Yankec) Argus of December
10th
On Wednesday last the little steamer Mil Boy Capt L.
c. Vale having been chartered by several persons who
were dealing in cotton left this port for Commerce,
Miss a small place on the river fifty miles from this

there early in the day and landed. The cotton which
was promised back in the country, and had TO be
hauled to the river The people there kept telling the
officers of the boat and the cotton dealers that if they
would wait il would certainly arrive that night. The
boat kept up steam all the while at the landing.
Just after dark party Of guerla5 stole along down
the landing and came within pistol shot of the boat

He was attempting TO get behind the whee-house when

The Mill Boy met the City Belle coming up and being

A Rebel Proposftfon

Singular Statement.

We notice that the statement is made in
several New York Journals, that on the occu,
pauey OF Baton Rouge by our troops under
Gen. Grover, on the 18th nlt., several citizens
asserted that they knew two weeks before the
Banks expedition sailed from New York that
1t was bound for Naw Orleans. If this be
true, they certainly knew more than was
known in the North. But they affirmed It
positively, and said that, by orders from Rich.
mona, dispositions had been made accord.
ingly. II the statement is true one, It fur
nishes another evidence Of the utter impos.
sibility that State secret can be kept from
the enemy.
As an evidence Of this matter, we find the
following in the New Orleans correspondence
published in tho New York Esrniag Fost Of
Tuesday afternoon:
Notwithstanding the secresy which has
marked the expedition, Gov. Shep1ey assured
me that he knew, through secession sources,
three weeks ago, that Banks was to supersede
Butler. The secret was secret only TO loyal
men. A vigorous censorship of the press Is .
hardship to them, but seems to be no dctri-
ment to the leaders Of the rebellion. who
have other and better facilities for acquiring
information.

APPEAL FOR UNION

- ~AAANA
APPEAL FOR UNION.
We appeal to men Of property and men
Of industry and the men of peace. The
policy Of the Governments fully declared.
Its last great weapon has been taken in
hand. The power Of the rebellion, and the
power Of the constituted authorities Of the
Republic stand face to face,' Now for the
:grapple. It will end either in the infinite
humiliation and disgrace of the North,
the virtual subjugation Of f:the Free States,
and the overthrow Of popular liberty as
founded on that cornerstone of all true
Democracy, "man is superior to his acci-
DENTS" or in the quick destruction Of
all opposing forces, the complete
re~establishment Of the national authority
in all the revolted districts, the second asser-
tion ofthe justice and necessity ofthe Demo-
cratic principle, and the deliverance Of the
country from the sin and shame Of buying
and selling men. We must have one Of the
two resu1ts-a country all slavc or q coun-
Try with no slave.
Men Of property, which shall we, which
do you, acceptf It may be yours to de-
1ermine. 4 large class Of politicians in the
North will make the Proclamation the ex-
cuse and justification for the attempt to
domcnt divisions, to hinder and embarrass
our armies, to create popular disturbances,
to insult and defy the Government,
and transfer that war which has ruined
and desolated the South, to our own
doors They viii appeal to your passions
and to your. anhpathies. They will set to
work all the enginery by which you may
be shaken, and their object accomplished.
For the most part they have little to 1ose9
but do you wish revolution here ut
homer Are your possessions Of so little
1alue TINT you can afford to offer them on
the altar Of slavery, that the business Of
man-sel1ing and woman-whipping may 60
ona Men Of industry, areyou willing to lay
down the implements that you WELD and
take the sword to complete the destruction
ofwhat the Fathers built? Men Of peace, are
you ready to embark in the business Of
cutting your neighbors' throats, solely that
q few factious and disloyal men in the
North and their allies of the South NAV
win triumph that will make Liberty
weep? Discourage, then, we entreat You,
all suggestions Of revolutionary violence
here-all opposition to the Government in
its lawful endeayors, The President has
made no mistake. He has violated no law.
No man is shameless enough to say that
he intends usurpation Of any popular right,
Or cncroachment upon any liberty
that any loyal citizen enjoys. The men
who so pretend, know that they lie. As
sou value Ill those things for which men
labor-property, security, peace, liberty
Tc exhort you to yield nothing to what
treason will urge, to abate nothing from
what good citizenship demands. The times
are perilous. A word may act as spark
nwhich the property Of all may be con
sumed, by which industry may be dried
up at its fountain, and by which peace, ex-
ceptatthe end Of scenes that make human
ity shudder, will be prayed for in vain.
We labor for no such consummation. See

The Effect of LeG- Davis Proc
Inutnfj0n

The fnlmination 4 Of JEFF Davis against Gen,
Butler and the Presidents proclamation has
the first effect to derange the programme
upon which the exchanges Of prisoners have
heretofure taken place: The orders and
threats Of the great outlaw arc directly in yio-
aation Of the cartel, aud the, first impulse Of
the government was to terminate all proceed
ings under it. It had been merely az greed to
make general exchange, including soldiers,
politics prisoners and suffers, but until Davis
shall satisfactorily explain his intentions, ill
commissioned officers in our hands will be
retained, and only priyates and noa-commis-
stoned officers CIV enup. To this extent the
exchange viii continne to 60 on, and orders
to that effect were to-day te1egraphed to all
points. Col. Ludlow has arrived ut Washing.
ton on this business, and Will ut once proceed
TO Fortress Monroe
