ArrIvnl Of Easteru Cap,tal,.,..

The unrivaled mineral resources of Mis-
souri, are beginning to be appreciated by
meu of capital and enterprise in the neigh
| boring States. Emigration is flowing into
our State in constantly increasing stream,
and capital is seeking investment in many
of our mines and manufactures. Yester.
| day the following well-known capitalists of
New York and New Jersey arrived in the
city and are stopping at the Southern Ho-
| tel; Hon. W E. Dodge. II. G. Marquard, D.
B. Grant, lie Grand B. Cannon, o. D. F.
| Grant, A. G. Bridou, and F. W. Rhine
lander. To day these gentlemen will go
| down the Iron Mountain railroad to exam
iue the IRON, tin, and other minerals of Mad
ison. st. Francois, and Iron counties. They
| represent large amount of capital, and it
| is to be hoped that their visit will prove
! satisfactory. Louis Democrat, 6tb inst.
| We have in Louisiana unsurpassed mines
of cotton, sugar, rice, oranges, pccans, and
other valuable articles Of commerce, which
only need to be properly worked to yield
abundant returns to the capitalist. During
the half century in which tbs State was
under the management of slaveowners, its
immense resources were scarcely touched.
The system Of agriculture pursued was i'm
perfect and from that fact hazardous. Too
much dependence was placed upon the
manual labor Of the slaves, and too little
attention paid to improvements il ma.
chinery. Draining, by which so many fer.
tile acres could have been rescued from the
swamp lands was generally neglected, and
the hundreds Of thousands of square miles
of rich land that annually flows down the
Mississippi and out to the sea was permitted
to pass By when very simple process
would have secured enough to fill up
the low places and raise the surface above
the danger Of overflow. This long.neglected
work presents to men of means and energy
great Inducements for Investments. Neither
the minerals OF Missouri nor tie gold and
silver mines Of the Pacific States are more
certain to be profitable than are our rich
lands if properly worked. Afree and stable
government is about to be established, has
already in fact been framed and agreed to
by the people, and only requires the formal
sanction of Congress to give it force. Pro
lection to all having thus been secured
nothing remains but for ehterprising men to
come on here al once and make fortunes for
themselves, and impart vitality to the State
st the same time.

Our readers will pardon us for printing
the following communication
New ORLEANS, May ., 1865.
EDITOR REPUBLICAN :
SIR-Your editorial of.this morning on the
Location of New Orleans deserves the
thanks of the whole community. Your sug-
gestion in reg ard to the drainage of the city,
opening of the canal to the river, and the
drying up and rendering available the
cypress sWamps in the rear OF New Orleans,
are certainly worthy of the speedy aud
special attention OF the ''powers that bc.m
The subject of the drainage of the city has
been before the New Orleans Academy OF
Sciences, of which / am a fellow, for the
last twelve months, with prizes offered by
responsible parties for the best plan propOs-
ed on this subject subject to the approval
OF The City Council We hope you viii con
tinuc to urge your views in regard to this
important matter, as the sanitary condition,
future prosperity, and greatness of New Or
leans depend upon the carrying out Of the
very suggestions you have mBde.
1t is like "greeH spot in DESERT to read
an article such as you have given us this
morning, in these times OF political turmoil
and excitement. Please let us hear from
you again and frequently on the same sub
ject. ANOLD CITIZEN.
1t is our intention to discuss in the col
umns Of the REPgBIoAN the multitude Of
questions relative to the welfare OF New
Orleans and of Louisiana. After the in
auguration Of the newly elected civil Off
GERS and the meeting of the General Assem-
bly, we shall devote our columns largely to
these all important subjects, and promise to
bring to their Investigation and elucidation
the very best talent and scientific research
that can be procured. We expect no reeog-
milton of our services by our city cotempo-
raries. They are too busily engaged in
discussing topics that were threadbare half
a century ago. They are too busily en-
gagged in coming "hard names to hurl
against us in lieu Of arguments. to pay any
attention to the real wants Of the PEG
pie and the practical demands of these stir
ring times. But we do expect to get the
aear" as also the confidence of the people
of Louisiana, who, in the end, will see how
they have been befogged and misled by
those who assume to control public oDin,

AEYW DBrINITToN OF Loyalty,

The term loyal . is sufficiently nause.
ating in itself TO aiman who has q Just regard
for his personal dignity, and for his rights
as a citizen, and who regards the absurd
Difference for government as an unworthy
and debaslng superstition; hut it becomes
doHbly odious when Ii is recognized as tho
distinctive designation OF a class OF persons
who are regarded as enemies OF the commu
mites which they insolently assume torule.
We quote the above from the editorial
column Of Camp street cotemporary,
which ia its Friday's issue assailed the
New York Times for calling attention to
the curious anomaly that the Southern
papers persislently abuse the loyal men Of
the South, and at the same time invite
Northern immigration. The mere state
ment Of such absurd and rebellicns senti-
ments is Of course their sufficient refntatiou.
That the term loyair Is exceedingly
nauseating to all men who stIl cherish, like
the writer Of this extract, the doctrines and
traditions Of the Coniederaey, and whose
hands are still bound to the corpse OF
slavery, is depbtless vsrystrue Wesce sufH-
cienipEooi Of this every day. That loyalty to

man or woman can be allowed to stand in
the way of the will of the people. 1t is
probable that the Queen and Mr.. Disraeli
will succeed in preventing any further
legislation on the Irish Church for the
present; but if her Majesty ventures to OPP
pose the will Of the new Parliament, in
which the people of Great Britain will rule,
she will in all probability be the last person
who will wear a crown in the British

THB sOUTHERN PREss CONVERSION.

THE SOUTHERN PRESS CONVENTION,
Our telegraphic columns have of late
been under rather heavy requisition to in
form a wondering world that there has
been meeting at Augusta, Georgia, of the
members Of The Southern press. The first
intimation we had that any such conEen-
ton was TO be held at all was the announce
ment that 1t had met. None Of the New
Orleans press appear to have been repre-
scented. And # any were present from
Mobile we have not seen their names in the
reports. On the whole, we think II is an
affair confined exclusively to the editors Of
the rebel country press, who had no clear
ideas Of what they were called together
for. Only sixteen of these provincial
weeklies were represented at all. These
sixteen gentlemen, whose connection with
the Associated Press consists chiefly in cut
ting dispatches from the city papers,
profess themselves highly delighted
with fhe arrangement, AND compli
ment Mr.. Barr, the Washington
agent, for the efeditabIe menner in which
he (assisted by the New Orleans editOrs)
performs his duties VIC see no great
harm in these gentlemen meeting together
in Augusta and making each others ac-
quaintance, butean not conceive why the
fact should have been 50 extensively tele,
graphed TO the world. We are glad to
learn that they adjourned til the second
Monday in February, 50 that we shall hear
no more from them fer nearly year We
do not wish for any more Associated Pres
dispatches on he subject Of this little
society 50 far as We are concerned.
