THERE is something approaching the
sublime in the impotence of the rebels.
A Texas paper advises that peremptory
demand be made on England and France
fIr the recognition of the trans. Mississippi
regions, as q Republic, on it's own hook.
Failing this, the doughty Texan proposes
that the south shall go back to the Union,
and remaining long enough to vindicate the
Monroe doctrine, then make war again on
the north for separate independence. This
with all the armies on this side of the
Mississippi urtendered-they had no,
then heard of the capture of their Presi-
dent in petticoats-is sufficiently cool,
That they do not propose an immediate in
vaeion of any European power is to be at
tributed to their mOdesty. Another Texas
paper assures it's readers that "Tappiu's
brigade" will "dare and do all things. y
They will "dare" all things in the way o,
talking they will "do" just what Lee and
Johnston and Dick Taylor and the others
have done. They are not, by any means,
such fools ss they profess to be.

Whether JEFF Davis will FIRST be tried as an
accomplish of the ASSESSING, or as traitor,

Washington that the evidence duplicating

complete. The trial will of course be be.

red up the loyal people in the various couu-

and seek safety in fight. Being under bail

its ashes let no spark be rekindled under
