The Devil at Work.

We look for indescribable horrors IN war
when forces marshalled under the forms, at
least, Of law in their respective sections
meet on tbs field Of deadly strife. But hu-
manity, however dcformed it may be, quails
before the horrible work Of the bands OF
Iaw.defyiag, heaven insulting pirates and as.
sassins that iniest the semi .conqured coun
try of the Mississippi Valley. The Prince
Of damned souls, the rules of perdi,ion,
himself alone, could conceive the horrible
crime that are there committed. Without
even the shadow Of protection or excuse
derived from state Of war, those reckless,
Devil-inspired sons of perdi,ion styled
''guerillas," are Spreading terror through
the country, unoffending mon, women and
childred-union and secession alike and
ruth'ess'y plundered Of all they possess, and
barLarously murdered. Steamboats,, persu
ing the peaceful avocations OF commerce
frejghsed, frequently. with harmless, unof
Tending, unarmed passengers, are fired int
by batteries concealed on tho shore. and
withou! moments notice the whole o.
them are hurled into eternity. This is :
state Of things now existing on the lower
mississippi, bat which we hope will soon bt
stopped by the terror inspired by a strlc)
application Of the law.

the Mexican throne, tho aoquiesence of the
American Government. The American
Government will never acquiesso. 1t is said
that proposal to that effect has been made
by France to this government and the re-
ply is to the effect that this government
would not even tolerate, much less recoe.
nize tho establishment Of monarchey at
our very doors. This settles the question
Maximillian will not accept; France will
be forced to fall back to the original pro
gramme Of enforcing her claim against The
government of Mexico, and when she gets
her pay, she will be oblighed to withdraw
her army.
Napoleon thought when he started out o,

According to the Presidents Proclamation
this IS the day fixed for the draft to com

evening that he had not received the quotas
fro" Washington, which would render j,
impossible to proceed, as the enisment>

Besides this. large number have en- listed
whose names have notyet reached Wash-
ington, and consequently if the draft should
take place today, we would not receive
our proper credit. Thirty men escapcd,the
draft by enlisting At Capt. Kei,l's office
yesterday. and receiving the large bounties
Most Of them joined he First or Third
Battery. As the final figuring has TO bo
done at Washington. these could not be
passed to our credit, and without doubt if ,he
DRAFT should not bo postponed to enable

Of tho Second and Third regiments, 50 to
