ST. LOUIS, Sept 5.-A dispatch from
Washington of day CT two ago. relating to
the Post-O Office Department agreeing to send
mails to Rio Janeiro by the Mississippi Vail, y
and Brazil S eamship line, containing errors
which it is thought proper to correct. The
company is st. Louis enterprise, and has
its headquarters here, but will start its
steamers from New Orleans, freight for them
being shipped from here or to Cairo or by the
Mississippi Valley Barge line. The first
steamer is expected to leave for Rio the first
November, instead Of October. The COM
pany is soliciting a cargo for this steamer
from various points in the Mississippi Valley,
and has assurance of freight from Louisville,
Cincinnati, Detroit, and other places in the
West.
Another enterprise of similar character,
called the Missouri Valley and Oronoco Trad
ing Company, has recently been incorporated
here, and organized, with some of our most
active and enterprising merchants as its
officers. This company will start sailing
vessel from New Orleans for the Valley of the
Orinoco River, in South America, touching
at all intermediate points, probably next
month, with an assorted cargo and bring
back freight of coffee and sucn South Amer
lean products as are most salable in this
country. This is intended as an experimental
venture, and IT 1t proves successful, the COM
pany will increase its stock, put on fine steam
ers, and built up an extensive trade between
the two countries. Both these enterprises are
meeting with much encouragement from mer-
chants, manufacturers, ETC., and their pros
poets for the speedy opening and establish
ment OF large and remunerative trade be-
tween this valley and South America are very

GEN. GORDON'S GREAT SPEECH IN
MISSISSIPPI.

The correspondent of the Louisville
Courier-Journal gives the following sketch of
the speech delivered by Gen. Gordon, of
Georgia, at Holly Springs, last Monday:
Gen. Gordon was escorted to the stand and
tiful flow OF oratory. To do justice to the
speech of Senator Gordon would require
more space than is here allowed. l shall only
tell of it briefly. Not word of it was uttered
but seemed to carry with it weight and an
impression that told of the mind and man
hood of him who stood there like giant,
striking for liberty, truth, and virtue. He
talked of Mississippi and the dreadful disas-
tiers that threaten to crush out her very exis.
tence.
Reviewing the entire career Of the Repub-
lican party since it went into power, he told of
its costly, its cruel its unconstitutional, and
its selfish administration. He went back to
the olden times, and followed up the course
of events to the present day, with States
manlike ability and clearness that was as
matchless as it was convincing. He paid high
tribute to the courage, chiyalry and patriotism
Of the Federal soldiers, acknowledging their
just claims to all this. He did not believe
that one of them sanctioned the rule of the
arpet-baggers. These last-where were they
when the war was waged and danger lurked
in the air and bullets flew?
Why didn't they come to the front, when
patriots by the thousands wheeled into line
and moved in awful silence into field of
death Where were they when cannon
belched forth missiles that carried away thou
sands of the noble and gallant sons of Ameri-
ca I? They were peacefully in the rear, wait
ing for danger to lie still. When the battle
flags of both armies were folded away forever;
when the brave men of both armies said the
war was over and peace must reign. the army
Of plnnderers came from their hiding places, |
friendless, and almost nameless,
and said, "We will wage war upon the |
fallen" So they did; and Mississippi |
writhes to-day under the terrible charges of |
the carpet-bag corps. Her oppressed and |
chain-ridden people called out in their agony
for relief, for change, and it must come.
His language to the colored people was
simply grand and touching. He addressed
hem as his friends and countrymen. He
ook up every charge the Radicals had brought
against the Conservative party, and answered
hem all with candor and force which made
Is impression. He appealed to the colored

THE MILITARY POLICE,

! We are informed that orders are about to he
issued for renewal of drill by the force.
The reason for this movement is not stated,
and it would take very far-seeing individual
to divine the necessity Of it. At present there
is certainly no reason why the police of this
city should assume martial aspect We take
it that if they confine themselves strictly
within the limits of their legitimate duties.
the duties for which the people of this civ
are grievously taxed, they will have ample
bu siness on hand to employ every moment of
their time without fooling around the streets
playing sogers and that so lamely and ridicul-
ously as to excite the jeers and laughter of
even those boys who were not in the army.
We are of the opinion that the police had
surfeit Of muskets, and thatthey were very
far from having any desire to be put through
the manual of arms or to tramp, tramp
around the steeets for political effect or to
endeavor to brighten people, who, in the com
mon parlance of the day. "dont scare worth
a cent" Seriously, We think it would be ex-
tremely ill-advised to place the metropolitan
police on war footing at this or any other
time.
1t is impossible that men can perform the
duties of police and Of soldiers at one and
the same time, and the fact that they are armed
with riff s and cannon is standing menace
to the people at large, threat that if they do
not meekly submit to whatever outragas and
the Radical office-holders and
party may choose to put upon them that bull
cts and canister will be used against them.
The law incorporating the metropolitan
police into the militia was purely partisan
born of the fears of men who
Wished to uphold tottering and disgraceful
lynasty. 1t should be stricken from the
tatute book, and no doubt will be upon the
ssembling of Conservative Legislature.
There is no violence nor fear of violence in
ny part of this State and since the compro-
Mise there has been no time at which process
# court could not have been served by the
Owest officer Of the law. It is difficult to see,
hen, the necessity for this drilling and mar
ial preparation.

A CONTRAST.

The conduct of Attorney General Pierre.
pont respecting the call of Gov. Ames Of
Mississippi for aid from the government is
in marked contrast with that of his predeces-
sor under like circumstances. He pauses in
order to ascertain the facts. He wishes to
know whether there is or is not necessity
for so extraordinary q movement. He will
not act from the hasty suggestion of badly
scared governor, nor will he construe the &C
ton of local mob under singular excitement
as an instruction or rebellion threat
ening the lives and property Of
citizens and the overturning of lawfully con-
situted government Williams would have
had Mississippi picketed with troops and
garrison in every large town. He would have
ordered the arrest of hundreds of citizens and
put the capital of the State under martial
law. He would have had his fighting gen
erals on hand thirsting for the blood Of ban
dts, and telegraphing lies to Washington
with nimble fingers. He would easily have
magni6ed a local riot into general rebellion,
and rejoiced at the opportunity to make capt.
tai for the Radical party. But Pierrepont
seems to weigh the facts and study the
situation before complying with the request
Of the frightened citizen Of New England
who pretends to be the Governor Of Mlssis-
sppi, who knows that he is distrusted and
despised by the whites and unable to COM
mand the service of the negroes. He is an
other Governor who cannot govern, and the
TACT seems to be known at Washington
Hence the cautious delay of Mr.. Pierrepont

actual facts

If the State, and is the scene of the worst Of
he late disorders, is strongly colored and
Radical, yet the Radical sheriff of that county
eports that "perfect peace prevails through
'ut the State, and that officers are not pre-
'ented from executing civil processes. Other
most trustworthy information corroborates
his intelligent report, and the Attorney Gen
raj is doubtless fully convinced that no Fed
raj interference in Mississippi is called for or
7ould be justifable or legal.

Wayne Hovey relates good anecdote Of a
certain chaplain of the Auburn State prison,
who being an enthusiastic devotes of temper
ance reform, had an idea that most of the
convicts were incarcerated because of the use
of whisky. In his rounds he met sturdy
man of many stripes, and put the usual ques-
ton to him: "Had whisky anything to do
with bringing you here ?" Everything sir,
everything" exclaimed the man. The chap
lain was encouraged, and eagerly inquired
how it was. "Well, sir, I'll tell you how it
was. The Judge was drunk, and the the law
yers were all drunk, and they fetched me in
guilty"
