The late speech of Mr.. ORR, of Aissis-
sippi, in the rebel Congress, has been
commented upon by the newspapers as an
indication that party was growing up in
the Confederscy in favor Of unqualified
submission to the national authority, or OF
"peaoe at any price" We have read the
speech attentively, and can find nothing
in it that sustains this assumption. On
the contrary, there is not sentiment in it
that can be construed into willingness to
accept any other terms than the recogni-
ton of southern independence. Mr.. ORR
says, for himself and others, who were in
favor of negotiating with our govern
ment:
or time-serving men. Sustained % they are
by q volume of sentiment in the country and
In the army, and by their own sense of duty,
they are determined that in some form the
craftsmanship of the country shall be invoked
in an honest effort to end this carnival Of death
by negotiation. aa - III. .... IN.
But on the day succeeding, Mr.. NAE
SHALL, of Kentucky, said that he would
stake the me-" of the country BY the ~ope of the
neck and pvt them into tho army. He ,ooud
rather see every city in this country IN smoudersg
rsans AND every house in ashes, than yield one jo'
short of Ms independence Of these States =
and Mr.. ORR rose to thank Mr.. MARSHALL
"for the noble and lofty sentiments he had
uttered" and continuing said: l,.f .
There was not sentiment which that gen.
tleman had so eloquently expressed to which

ingt0n with the olive branch In one hand and
the power OF popular determination and heroic
resolve in the other. -
On the same day, Mr.. MILES of South
Carolina offered the following resolution
which was adopted: "
Resolved, That joint committee of five
members of the House and members of the
Senate be appointed to prepare an address to
the people Of the United States, assuring them
of the unalterable determination of Congress to
continue with all its energy the struggle for in.
dependence in which we are engaged, and as
suring them of the final triumph which, in our
solemn judgment, must crown. our efforts II
we STAND firm and united together, and WELD
our resources with strength and wisdom.
The disastrous reverses experienced by
the rebels have disheartened them to some
extent, and scolding newspapers reflect
the general dissatisfaction that prevails
throughout the ConfederacS, but we have
seen nothing from any quarter that looks
like voluntary submission to the Federal
authority, or disposition to negotiate fol-
peace on any other basis than recognition.

Improvement Of Cannon Rive

A bill was passed in the Hcnse yester-
day, and had first reading in the Senate,
that is Of more Importance than would
seem from its title-"H. F. No. 94-To
amend an act to incorporate the Cannon
Falls Manufacturing Company.
The bill oontemplates slack-water navi-
cation on the Cannon River, from, .its
source among the chain of lakes in Vase
ca and Le Sueur counties, to it's mouth.
1t has been known for years by those "a
miliar with that scope Of country, that BY
clearing out the river, and locking it, logs
and grain barges could be floated from it's
head waters to the Mississippi. Nor viii
the outlay be very great, We learn, to eff
feet this important improvement, which
win largely enhance the value of all the
agricultural lands in the counties through
which this canal viii pass. 81. ~, - -
We are, glad to learn that company
with sufficient capital has undertaken this
great enterprise, and viii carry it through
Is soon as the proper surveys can be
made. g.. . '.t -. 70
It is oonjectured BY some that as some
streams flow from the lakes that will be
used as reservoir for the canal, into the
Minnesota River also, the lslackwater i'm
provement can be continued clear into
that River, thus making canal through
some of the richest counties of the State,
through which grain and produce, lumber,
coal, merchandise. &C., can be transported
cheaply. The enterprise is more impor-
tant one than first glance viii reveal to

The Debt Of the United States.

Inc DeDS Oh the Cn1teO S'0tee
Translated from the Courier des E,ats Unis for
.E the Pioneer.
In estimating at four billions of dol
lars the debt of the North, which is rather
over than under the truth, and fixing the
diameter of silver dollar at one and a
half inches, thus requiring eight dollars
to the linear foot, or twenty-four to the
yard, it would take 2,2SS to the mile.
The diameter Of the earth being 5000
miles, the national debt, represented in
silver dollars, would measure twelve and a
half times the diameter of the earth. The
circumference Of the globe being $4,000
miles, the debt would encircle it four times.
An American dollar in silver weighs one
ounce. and the LINCOLN debt is $50, 1888,
sss. pounds. A good mule will carry
900 pounds. Mules when travelling occupy
ten feet each. Consequently it would re-
ouire train of 1,11l,1l mules, occupy
ing a'space of more than 24,o4s miles, or
three times the diameter Of the earth to
carry the national debt. r ss.m

A Frightful Calamity |

A dreadful danger, and imminent, has just
arisen above the political horizon! It is the
more terrible because so sudden. No cloud
SO Dig even as mans hand, has been its fore
runner. 1t was supposed, when peace ensued,
that our public securities were assured. the
imld In time OF war became confident In time
OF peace. Copperheads rushed into those de-
sirable investments who derided them when
the country most needed their support.
But it has been left to the piercing eyes of
the Araa,s to discover danger in the clear sky.
That paper of Tuesday, with remarkable pre-
science, announces the dreadful opinion, in its
leading editorial, that if the members from
the rebellious States are excluded from the
organization Of thesHouse, at will affect, pre-
judicialy, the public securities at home and

This is an announcement that must alarm
every patriot in the land. Having done every
thing within the power Of man, during the
war, to debase the securities by every species
Of distrust, it now comes to pass, that, unless

management of the country, our credit at

eyes that, peering through the clear air of
peace, see danger imminent though unseen to

Humbug Advertisements.

New Workers, who, believe can claim the
ignoble honor of originating the system of
Mock auctions, have not been slow to i'm
prove upon that system Of fraud by advertis-
ing, in leading journals, certain professedly
new and very useful articles, which any read
ers can have forwarded to them by mail or
Express, on the receipt of the price, which
generally is so low as to tempt a purchaser
Carefully Withholding the advertisers name, no
person can be reached or held responsible for
the fraudulent transaction. If, by such means,
they can induce unsuspecting and honest men
or women to forward the requisite amount of
money in advance for the article desired, they
mblushingly pocket the sum sent, and that is
the last which the confiding purchaser hears
from the advertiser. Hundreds and thou
sands of dollars are thus every year abstract
ed by system worse than theft from the scam
ty means of the poor and needy. 1t is time
such iniquity was exposed; and having case
now on hand, i feel it my duty to warn the
readers of the Press and the public generally
against being deceived by the system alluded to.
A few weeks ago, lady friend of mine,
who gets her living for herself and little ones
by sewing, which she does by hand, not being
able to purchase costly Machine, noticed in
<he N. Y. TriSelne, an advertisement of a

Kinds OF sewing with great rapidity, and much
better than by hand. Extracts, protesting to
give the words of Godey's Lady's Book, and
OF the N. Y. Independent, are appended to
the advertisement, in strong recommendation
OF the Machine. Agents for the sale of the

promised that "singe machines will be sent

Such an advertisement, with date of pa

dences of reality, is calculated to arrest tho
attention of working women in almost anv
family, and probably many s. bill has been
sent to the address advertised. Whether in
any case Machine has been forwarded in re-
turn, of course cannot say; can only say
that in the case of the tady alluded to, within
myown knowledge, the poor woman has lost hei
money, for no such machine has been receiv-
ed by her. Thus the matter stood till last
