+ WILMINGToN.-The Northern papers state that
Wilmington is to be attacked, the land forces
being ready and the feet in process of being ga
thered The same idea has recently fixed itself
very firmly IN the Southern mind, iu consequence
OF the excitement known to have been produced at
the North by the fitting out of the Tallahassee at
Wilmington and her sailing from aud to that port;
In addition to which it has been reported that sew
eral other armed ships were to follow her. This
KIND OF war upon yankee commerce they will no
doubt stop if they can, and the only ways to do
that are either to keep a far larger force off the
port or to capture il. The latter is of course pre-
ferred if practicable because of other results such
as the interruption of railroad and river transport
alton. For this purpose it is said that fleet is
now being collected at Norfolk and Old Point,
among which are said to be two very powerful
monitors.
Well, the only matter of surprise is that the
yankees have SO long delayed their attack upon
this only outlet and inlet of the Confederacy
Two or three years ago they might have captured
1t with but little difficulty we suppose. But those
two years have given to Wilmington the advantage
of the scientific skill of General whom President
Davis justly pronounced one of the very first En-
gineer officers in the country, aud who had shown
his galantry upon some of the hardest fought fields
in Virginia in 1861 and in the brilliant campaign
of 1862 around Richmond In his labors there
to him labors of love not less than Of duty-Gen.
Whiting has been seconded by other able and in
defatigable officers. With sufficient force, which
We take it for granted will be there, we feel
strong confidence that Wilmington will not be be-
hind Charleston and Savannah and Mobile in with
standing the most furious assaults Of the enemy.
If laborers be required, we trust that they will
be cheerfully furnished; and if citizens must be-
come for the time soldiers, feel that they too
will be ready and prompt; for the defence of Viii
mington is the defence of the whole Cape Fear re-
gion, and indeed of most of the State. Its less
would open wide the gate to the enemy, and no |
mans property life would be safe from destruc-
ton, no mans family from insult and outrage
The defence of Wilmington is the defence of our
homes and families s.-FayctterR2e Observer.

AN AFFECTING ScENE.-Just after President
Davis speech in Columbus, says the Enquirer, no
was informed that Mrs -, al old acquaintance
and once q ncighbor Of bis, who is now an exile
from her home, was in the crowd and wished 20
see him "G1d bless her, where is she?" said he,
and on her being pointed out, he made for her, and
the old lady for him. As they met she threw her
arms around him and vcpt like child, and even
the "iron man." as be is sometimes called, shed
tear too Can il be that one who can unbend and
enter into the sorrows Of the old, and then turu
and chat With the children around him, Is the vim

he Is accused Of being by some Of those who do
not happen to agree with him in some Of his Co
ings No, no. we can't believe it.

McCLELLAN's CHANcEs.-Prentice, Of the
Louisville Journal, is now, for the first time, sup
porting a Democratic nominee, and has commenced
making calculations as the chances for the success
Of bis faEorie. He says. Congress having refused
to admit the vote of those States, which have pass
ed ordinances of secession, the number of electoral
votes to be cast in November will be 23l, and it
will require ll6 votes for an election. The twen-
ty-four voting States now-Kansas and Wess yir-
gina having been added since the last Presidential
electon-polled aggregate vote of l,864,6l3
for Lincoln, and 2,024 ,040 for the opposing cand-
dates, so that Lincoln was in popular minority of
159, ,427, although be obtained majority of the
electoral votes. Were these States to vote this
year as they did In 1860, Lincoln would receive
1888 and Mcclellan 35 But in 1862, New York
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, gave op
position majoriies, varying from J, 500 to 1886
and it cannot be doubted that the administration
changes of policy will increase those majorities in
1864. They give one hundred and nine electoral
votes, or but seven less than are necessary to a
choice and we candraw New Jersey for that nual-
Der, or own glorious Kentucky for eleven

CoNTENTMENT.-1n Vienna, magnificent
house was built by nobleman, on the front of
which is a stone with the inscription: This house
was erected by Count D., to be given to the
first man who prove that he is really content
ed" One day stranger knocked at the gate and
desired to speak with the master. "I have come,
said he, ''to take possession oil this house, as 1
found you have built it in order to bestow it upon
the man who is really contented. Now, am in
that state, of which am willing to make an oath;
you will therefore give me immediate possession"
The Count did not interrupt him till he had finish
ed his speech, when he replied, "You are quite
right, sir, with respect to my intentions, but as
do not discover the least pretenson you have to the
character of a contented maB, hope you will re-
tire If Won were quite contcntee you would not
want my house"
RoMANcE.-The marriage of W. Erlanger, the
banker, to Miss Slideil, is causing small sensa
ton. n Erianger being just divorced from Mile.
Odelle LATTE, (Charles Laftte's daughter,) and
the divorced lady being about to enter the bonds
of matrimony with the cause of the divorce, makes
it the event of interest. One of those curious cir
eumstances which never happen but in France
is recorded Of the incident which led to the d.
vorce The guilty party, being pursued by the Of
Tended husband, was of course struck with terror;
but philosophy and contempt had done much to
mitigate the pursuers wrath and so, instead Of
schas,s;ne the insolence according to the fashion
observed in novels, he quietly placed his pocket
book into the hands of the fugitive, exclaiming,
"Ah m;aHeureur! You have only taken fen thou
sand francs, and you going TO Rome! Know
ing your fair companion well, can safely say that
such patry sum as that will be devoured before
YOU get to Marseiles There is double the sum;
this will enable you to go further of-to Naples
perhaps, and shall be the gainer for you win be
forced to remain there" And with this copsola-
tory speech the injured party coolly turned upon
hi. heel and walked off. So goes the legend, at
least,

THE TOBACCO TEADE.-The quantity of un-
manufactured tobacco imported into the United
Kingdom in the six months ending June 80, 1864,
was Is, ,358, ,1O5 lbs. The quantity imported du-
ring the same period in the year 1868 was ,923,
357 lbs, and during the period 10 1862, only
7,436,3o6 lbs: The quantity of manufactured to-
bacco imported is very greatly the increase,
owing to the reduction of the duty. During six
months ending June 80, 1864, the supplies were
3,04l, 139 lbs, compared with 222, 1913 lbs in
1868, and $50, 1858 lbs. in 1862. It is scarcely
necessary to point out that the small import of
manufactured tobacco in 1862, was caused by the
war.

everything that was Of vital interest to the

OF that platform had forgotten to tell the
