q Whilst waiting for paper, we deem it
best, lest our readers should fail of news entire
ly. to issue only small Bulletin, declining all
advertisements We can safely assure them
this will only be temporary We intend to
keep up the Telegraph at any cost.
AS yet our Executive has not deemed it of
sufficient Importance to keep up a journal in
the State, to Justify State aid in procuring news
paper He is an able, honest man, ef undoubt-
ed patriotism, but fearful of responsibilities.
and perhaps too conservative for the crisis. We
have not the good fortune to be within the
scope of that most admirable ofwar Governors,
Allen of Louisiana, who announces to the Leg
islature that through his aid, all the papers of
the State have been plentiiully supplied with
paper. Sink or swim we must struggle for our
selves, and that without the bladders. 1t is
hard work for individual enterprise. We re-
mind ourselves very much of arat in water
barrel, with his nose barely above the surface.
Our readers must therefore look kindly on eur
imperfections. The Telegraph means to live.
But it is low now, very. Wait little to see
eur reefs shaken out, and full spread of sail
Aided or unaided we intend to announce peace
before we go under, if it takes the last cent we
can raise, beg or borrow.

- The smoke of peace rumors still rises
plentifully, as yet there are no clear appearan-
ces of that fire which the old adage teaches US
to believe in.
Doubtless Blair's visits to Richmond are IN
der Llncoln's directions What Lincoln's OBJ
lect are is very doubtful. He may be wishing
to lull US into cessation of our efforts 10 raise
and maintain armies. He may be intending
only to demoraIize Southern sentiment by hold
ing cut bats to the weaker class of our people
He NAV be tanning 10 rest, whilst drawing
aronud us chains. He may be puIing thus
gently before seizing ticrceiy with his clHw-.
II may be reviviug a s. init at nom,
patting the south in position OF apparent Obsti-
nacy in refusing terms which he knows We
cannot accept Any ofthose motives will suf
fciently account for this singular and unex-
pected move of his on the chess board, Or it
may be that he is really alarmed at last Be-
ginning to wake up from the frenzy of drunk
enness, and to see the consequences ct his
CRIMES. He may see that the power of his gov
eminent will bear no further strain. He may
be frightened by the certainty OF foreign recog-
milton, and the hopeless loss of the amity of
the South for ages to come.
Whatever his objects are, Davis knows them
and may be trusted to meet them properly
Fer ourselves, whilst watch results with
that anxiety iuseparable from consequences
momentous, we have but one good thing to do.
PreRez gardei Keep up our armies to the full
est figure and go to making provisions as if the
war were to last ten years. If peace comes we
will not regret lost labor. If Lincoln be tri-
fling with us, the cons equences will thus recoil
on himself If foreign nations intervene 1t will
be ne disadvantage, in our relations with them,
TO be found ready to help ourselves. Let us
welcome them "with harness on our backs"
and not as humble suppiants.

y We have been permitted to read Men,
phis Bulletin Of the 25th ult. The news is not
later than that published last week from the St.
Louis Republican OF the 23d. We CLEAN the
following additional items:
The Monitor Palapsco was destroyed by tor
pedos at Charleston on the 18th, some 40 or 50
OF hsr crew went down with her.
Burleigh, one of the St. Albans raiders, has
been, by decision of court ia TeroHte, ordered
to be given up to the u. S. authorities under
the sxtradition treaty, to be treated as robber-
Ii it be true that these raiders acted under a
Confederate commission, a case may arise to
force us at last TO take decided grounds to pro-
tect those who carry our commissions in their
pockets. We have scarcely done that hereto
fore.
The Tribune's correspondent speaking Of
Sherman says: His treatment of the negroes
of Savannah has inspired them with confidence,
and they rely on him WHOLLY. He has borne
in his heart great scheme for the benefit OF
their race in Georgia; and it is understood here
tnat the country will be electrified in few
days by an order from him partitioning among
them the Sea Island property of fugitive rebel
planters, and establishing them in their new
freehold, and laying the foundation Of new
social condition in mo South.'
That is a taste OF our fate.
All the cotton taken at Savannah has been
seized by the Government of the United States
and was being loaded in vessels to BE- taken TO
New York under coast convoy
The purriag process goes on at Savannah as
in every other place, until all are ssduced who
can be bofore the screws may be applied Gen.
Sherman invites citizens TO come in freely to
Savannah, FeTnandina and Jacksouville, and
exchange produce for supplies. he tells them
that if they molestea, he will retaiate on
the rebels. 1t is the cid game played at Nash
vile and Little Rock, and will no doubt catch
n few traitors and cause many good easy men
to commit themselves, and be heartily ashamed
OF it afterwards.

with silence the great disgrace which Andrew
Johnson inflicted that day upon his country. Had

hardly believe that these journals would have

cism. AS for ourselves, We trust We are habit
