truth is each line of the soldier's thought :
" Tbe lights in the President's mansion,

Aa I toss on my wearisome bed ■
I see them flooding the windows,
And star-like, gemming tbe hall,
Where the tide of fashion Hows inward,

" What matter that T, a poor private,
Lie here on m. narrow bed,
With the fever griping my vitals,
And dazing my  hapless head :

And rations meagre and small,
So long as the beau monde revel

Tho Emperor of Russia recently issued an ukase

celebrate in common the anniversary of tho same
battle as a day of national mourning.
The Austriau Government in reply to the Committee of Finance declared it was incessantly engaged in providing by diplomatic means for a
settlement of Italian affairs, and had reason to
bopo its efforts would be successful, that all the
questions at issue had reached n crisis, aud in a
short time matters would be easier, they consider
the danger of war In Italy averted for a long period, and are about»to realize the reduction of thi
army on a grand scale.
Tlio Mississippi.
The following sketch of the Mississippi will bo
read with interest at this time. It is taken from
the Now York Herald.
The navigation of the Mississippi became unsafe
during tbe early part of the year 1861, and ou the
21st of May it was effectually closed by the establishment of a blockade at Memphis, in accordance
with an edict issued by the ringleaders of the Rebel Confederacy, and In this situation it has remained up to the preseut time, with tba exception oi
boats passing from one point to another along its
banks as the power of the Union wended ita way
southward.
It is now one hundred years since the questions
about the navigation of the Mississippi first engaged the attention of the European Powers, and be.
came the subject of controversy and negotiation.
Iti 17()'_ the States bordering on this great river
and its tributaries wero comparatively uninhabited, and little better than a wilderness, aud the
whole commerce of its waters did uot auiouut to
over three or four thousand dollars; but England,
France and Spain saw its prospective advantages,
and each became eager to secure the prize.
By tbe treaty of Paris in 1703, between the
above named nations, France retained aud was
confirmed iu her dominion over Louisiana, which
then included all the territory on tho west bank,
and from the Bayou Iberville to the Gulf of Mexico
ou tho east bank, by which she had complete control of tho mouth and outlets of the Miseisaippi j
bat it was stipulated that Great Britain should
have tho right forever of navigating ou tho river
from its source to tbo sea, without beiug stopped
or molested or subjected to the paymeut of any j
duty whatsoever. This stipulation became necee-I
sary on the part of England for the safety of her I
possessions, which then took the centre ofthe
chancel for the western boundary from the Iber-J
ville Bayou to the river's source.
France, very hooii after tbe confirmation of the
above mentioned treaty, ceded to Spain all her
rights tc LoLiisiiin-j, ami the latter Power consequently became tbe possessor of tbe outlet of the
Mississippi.
By tbe treaty of 1783 the indepeudenco of the
United States was acknowledged, and tho war of |
the Revolution was closed. By that treaty the j
United States succeeded to tho rights of England
io tho navigation ol the river, as derived from the
treaty of 17.3 with France. Hut England would
not relinquish her own right, but had au article
inserted iu tho treaty which acknowledged our independence to the effect that she also should have!
the right to navigate the river from its source to I
the ocean forever.
Between 1783 and 17.5 this subject was much
contested by Spain. She denied tbe right of navigation, made regulations for the collection of
heavy duties ou imports, and established military
posts, garrisoned with officers and men, with instructions to collect the duties by force. The claim
cf Spain waa strenuously contested by our Government ; but she was unyielding, and it may be said
that from 1783 to 1735—a period of twelve years
—we had no right ou the Mississippi beyond what
we paid for.
In the latter year, under Washington's administration, the treaty, of Madrid was concluded'
wherein our rights were permanently acknowledged by Spain in the following language :
His Catholic Majesty haa likewise agreed that
the navigation of the said river (the Mississippi)
iu ita whole breadth, from ils source to the ocean
shall be free ouly to bis subjects aud the citizens
of the Uuited States.
Louisiana reiroceded from Spain to France lu
the year 1800, and 1803 the whole territory was
purchased by tbe United States, and the transfer
ade on the 30th of November. •
The right of British subjects to navigate the
river, however, Btill remained after tbe purchase,
and coutiuued until the trealy of peace between
England and the United States was negotiated in
1815, wheu tbe American Commissioners terminated tbe privilege, and the United States became
the sole owners of the river.
The greatest tributary of the Mississippi Is the
Missouri river, which rises in tbe Rocky Mountains,
three thousand aud ninety-six miles from the junction. The next iu importance is the Ohio river,
the source of which is one thousand miles from
where it empties into the Mississippi. Forty-five
rivers, nearly all navigable, and innumerable
creeks, contribute to make up the Great Father of
Rivers from the Falls of St Anthony to New Or
leans, a distance cf nearly two thousand miles.
Counting the rivers and creeks wbich flow into
tbe main tributaries of the Mississippi, wo find that
at least two hundred streams of the former denomination, and over one thousand creeks, stretching
from the AUeajhaules to tho Rocky Mountains, pass
their waters iuto the Gulf of Mexico through the
channel of the Mississippi.
The States of Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas*-
Louisiana and Mississippi all border on this river,
aud the waters from twenty States'and four Territories flow into It.
It was estimated that before the breaking out of
the rebollion the value of the steamboats alone engaged in commerce on tbo river was upwards ol
sixty-six millions of dollars, and the amount of
property conveyed up and dowu waa almost incalculable.

NEW ENGLAND versus TIIE TROPICS.
BT S, B   ROCKWELL.
They mny talk of bliss in the Tropics,
And glimppes of seagirt isles.
Of nature bewitchingly splendid,
Arrayed in her fairest s_iil_B ;
May talk of the pleasures of napping
In shade of the spreading palm,
And a stroll in the fields st even,
And the meadow's vagrant balm.
They may sing of enchanting arbors,
Half hidden in eglantine,
And of homes decidedly cosy,
Festooned in clambering viue ;
.Sing ot groves ot orange and spices,
Perfuming the softest air,
And of birds of the richest plumage,
Aud sunset, gorgeously fair.
They may point you to burning mountains,
And foreBts sublimely grand,
To the rivers so gently Hewing
O'er layers of golden nand ;
They may talk ol an endless summer,
And of fair and frutu'al plains,
Where Pomona, with glowing vintage,
In generous plenty reigns.
But give me a home Eo New England,
Where the hills are white with snow.
Where th*: Snow-Kin*^ rides in his glory,
Whitening the plains below ;
Where the Frost-King throttles the rivers,
And bridges the lakes wilh ice,
Crowning housetops, fences, and gata-posta
With wreaths of queerest device.
O, give me tt home in New England,
The land of my birth aud pride,
Where the snow path glitters and glistens,
Two "Morgans" io give me a ride ;
And bells on the "Morgans" for muaio,
A belle by my Bide so fair ;
With laughter and prattle so cheery,
We glide through the bracing oir.
Your homes in the tropics are duBty,
Your arbors a nest of fleaB,
Your summers are yellow and sultry,
And everything fails to please ■
You lie down to your shady slumbers,
Wake with a toad at your ear ;
Your servants are costly aud laay—
Your joys exceedingly dear [
My love is at home in New England,
The land of my pilgrim sires,
Where the merry old winds of winter,
Build towns and towering spires ;
Her wand is the bugle of freedom,
Her armor the blade of truth,
All tipt with jewels and silver—
How dear the home or my youth I

The Loss or Specie.
During tbe past week specie haa risen _s high
seven percent premium. Gold is going to Europe
in large quantities, and m_3t continue to go for
some time to come, to settle our balances there
All at once the leading Abolition paper, the New
York Tribune, has discovered that we bave uot
now the $200,000,000 uf southern exports wherewith to pay for our imports. A few years ago,
this paper was daily demonstrating what au expense the South was to the North, and how much
better we would be off by separating from her!
These vile disunion teachings have been inculcated so deeply into the minds of the North, that
hundreds seriously believe them. Yet this journal
now substantially admits that the North cannot
buy aud pay for its usual amount of imports under
the present system. We have exported nearly
$20,000,000 more of Bpecie this year than last, and
yet the tide only seems to bave fairly turned.
There is another cause now operating to draw
specie from us, and a very powerful one, too.
Gold, in common parlance, is seven per cent premium. But in reality our paper money is seven
per cent discount I There is thus a gold value
and a paper value to every article sold. British
goods are imported aod sold iu this market at our
paper currency rates, and the gold in tbe country
withdrawn to pay for them. The higher, therefore,
goods rise here in fictitious value, the greater will
be the drain oo our specie. If Mr. Chase ehould
issue $150,000,000 of legal tender notes, a great
inflation ot everything must occur, resulting in a
still further loss of the precious metalH.
But these are not the only disasters attending
this paper money Bcherae. Its evils effects fall
with crushing weight upon our own citizens. Every body is now paying seven per cent more for
articles than he ought, ou account of this derangement of the currency. The annual transactions of
the country, even in these times ot depression,
amount, it is estimated, to twenty-five hundred
millions per annum. Seven per cent on this sum
is $175,000,000, which represents tho entire aggregate inflation. Where doeB ibis sum come
from and where does it go? Why, it must and
can ouly come from the earning of the people, and
it goes-">■'<- the pockets ot brokers, capitalists aud
bankers.    People oft_n   wouder  how   it   is   that
eatth bo soon accumlates—30 soon gets into the
hands of a few. But the devices of "government,''
together with that moustor evil interest, will ex.
plain it. Ttie people are, and ever have been,
literally robbed under the pretence of ■'governing''
them. Ambitious and selfi.h men, lusting for
power, hare made tbe world weep tears of blood
and bound endless burdens on mankind, merely to
accomplish their own ignoble ends; yet it was
all done under the pretence of benefiting them.
When oh! when will tbe people be no longer tbe
the sport of such vile deception ?—Caucasian.
State Lands.—The State Surveyor General,
under advice of the Attorney General, says the
Bee, has established a new rule iu bis office us
Register- His predecessor has listened to "protest'' against the issue of certificates of purchase,
aud in this way gave much trouble to citizens
wbo complied with the law, at the instance of those
wh© had not followed any statute. This rule had
been rescinded, aud certificates are to issue regard-
jess of protests. If the protesting parties have any
legal or equitable rights invaded, the courts are
open to them, aod there is tbe proper place for
them to seek redress.
It is said that the Breck.nridga men uf Calaveras and Amador, will nominate J. W. Maude-

l_ll-cl of Pollttcul _*reaching.
A correspondent of the Boston Courier, after
showing the extreme of political fanatic-am to
which many have ran in these days of excitement,
thus show tbe effect tbat it has upou the prosperity of their religion :
"And what is the effect of this anti-christian
preaching—of these 'Abolition of the Union' meetings—by clergymen? It is. to keep good Christian citizens and their families from attending
these Churches—the pseudo orthodox of self-
opinion I As proof, look at the financial condition
of said edifices. 'Aye, there's the rub!' The
'Temple Church,' has occasionally been let for
rope-dancing aud comic Binging. 'Theodore
Parker's Church,' where Wendell Philips and
Garrison hold forth, has recently, ■ ■• heretofore
been left for a 'It.rGy show' in borae-taming.
The 'Park Street Church' has let a ward of Its
basement story for the retail of the refreshment of
the body ; aud over tbe door in black letters, ie a
sign—not of the cross and the appropriate words,
'In hoc signo oinces'—but the words -Philadelphia
Ice Cream Depot.7 Oh, shade of Coostantine ! the
'Winter Street Church7 has also let ita basement,
and to a wealthy a- d fashionable milliner, and aB a
depot—not of ice cream—but for crinolines ; and
the sign there ia as follows, with an index band
pointing to tbe vestry door:—'Entry to Hoop
Skirts, Corset, and Dressmaking Departments."
These exceed those churches, in the pulpits of
which clergymen preach against even 'wine mixed
with water,' according to St. Paul, or wine at a
marriage feast, as by the example of tbe Savior;
and yet, Ob, Pharises! actually receive a rent for
the storage of rum, brandy and gin, In the basement of tbeir churches! Well may the Episcopalian churches receive additional members and attendance; for there the hnrrassed mind is edified
on the Sunday : and not disgusted by the preaching of Abolition, Massacre, and Disunion !
The New York Church Journal says : "We
hove uot examined the mutter so closely here;
but a friend who ia a little curious about it, dropped iu last Sunday morning at Dr. Cheever's
white marble meeting house on Union Square,
and found a graud congregation o; about forty
persons.''
Such are the legitimate fruits of political preaching as anticipated by St. Paul in bis exhortation
to Timothy. After instructing the young Deacon
in the gospel according to Christ, the old Apostle
continued :
"These things teach and exhort. If any man
teach otherwise and consent not to wholesome
words, even the words of our Lord Jesus Chsist,
and to the doctrine which is according to godliness; be is proud, knowing nothing, but doting
about questions and strifes of words, whereol
cometh envy, fltrift-, railings, evil surmising.*
perverse disputings of mon of corrupt minds, and
destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness ; from such withdraw thyself."
Look at It, White Men I
The emancipation of slaves in the District of
Columbia was celebrated at the National Hall, ia
Philadelphia, by a motley mixture of whites aod
blacks. We copy from the Ledger the following
remarks of one of the  speakers:
Rev. J. Lolla Martin, a young colored minister,
from Boston, spoke at some length. He was glad
to unite in the celubration whiob was to commemorate the insolation of slavery in the District of
Columbia. Tbis was oue step taken by the nation
towards justice. It might bo the beacon light- on
which to hope that hereafter property io man will
not be recognized. He hoped tbat soon the Government would be able to "proclaim liberty
throughout the whole laud and to the inhabitants
thereol." Viewed in itsolf, the liberation of a few
hundred bondsmen may not appear to be much
but it may ba auspicious of something more potent.
It may have its ioflueoco upon the millions wbo
are still held in bondage. The blacks, even i
they be freed, would not be subjects lor emigration. They would be freemen in a free land, to
remain in the same territory in which they
born. Tbe whites have always looked upou the
blacks with disdaiu ; but the lime will come when
the colored race will not be frowned upon. When
no longer held by despotism, throughout tbe
Southern States, by amalgamation wit'i the whites,
they will form a society, i; not a nation of people
tar superior to any nation in the world. They
wiil cultivate literature, art, science ; aud manufactures will flourish wilh a degree of success
before unparalleled. The freedom of the black
must be obtained, oo matter how—whether through
the preservation or dissolution of the Union.
Before the South will give up and hi conquered
by thii North, against whom she Will ever bear
the utmost enmity, she will free her slaves aud bid
tbem help her fight the North. The colored people have been refused when they wauted to tight
under the "star spangled banner." They were
told that it was for th« Anglo-Saxon alone. But
their freedom and liberty must be attained, aul
to get it, no matter under what banner they
rally. Tbey will even fight for Jeff. D,
so doing they receive their freedom.'7
What do yon think of it, white men? Is this
the feast to whioh the laboring class of the North
are invited J These woolly heads intend to amal
gamate with the whites, and establish a society
"far su;ierior to any ever produced by any nation
in the world." And'to accomplish this they do
not intend to leave the country, either, uor do
tbey care whether their freedom is obtained
"through the preservation or dissolution of the
Union."

The President has issued a brief proclamation,
warning all persons within the contemplation of
the 6th section of tbe Confiscation Aot, to ceasa
participating In eiding, countenancing or abetting
the existing rebellion, to return to their proper
allegiance to tbe United States under pain of
seizure and forfeiture as within and by said section
provided.
Official documents necessary lo consummate the
recently arranged agreement for the exchange of
priouere have been forwarded to Gen. Dix.
The Gth section of the Confiscation Act, to which
President Lincoln's proclamation refers, includes
all persons within any State or Territory engaged
in armed rebellion against the Government, or
aiding or abetting such rebellion, except the President and Cabinet ofiicers, Members of Congress,
and army and navy officers. In their case the law-
went into immediate effect.
A letter ol the 2Gth inst, from Fortress Monroe,
aaya:
I am credibly Informed that a large Rebel force
is being concentrated on tbe line of the Jamea
river, above the junction of the Appomato_ and
the James. a8 they came down from Richmond
by tho Petersburg and Richmond railroad. It is
believed tbat they number 50,000 to 60,000, and
that Jackson is In command of them ; notwithstanding a rumor that he is in pursuit of Pope.
My informant is very confident tbat the Rebels aro
now making a bold stand at the above named
place, aud are bringing all tho forces that they
Can spare from Richmond. He believes that it ia
the intention of the Rebels very Boon to make an
attack on Suffolk, as they are within ten miles of
that place with a considerable forca.
A number of wounded have jn*-t arrived from
Richmond, They say they were well treated while
there. The troops from Mississippi and Georgia
were especially kind in their treatment of prisoners. Tbe U. S. Treasury Notes were eagerly
taken by tbe Rebels, Baltimore notes also were
taken, but were looked on with distrust.
Chaplain O'llogan, of Excelsior Brigade, has
reached Harrison Landing from Richmond. He
says that two [ron-clads are being built at Richmond, similar to the "Merrimac," and that great
unanimity exists among the Rebels. Jackson and
Lee are extremely popular. Magruder has been
shelved. Beauregard is fast losing caste. The
Rebels lately received a large quantity of boots
aud shoes from England.
The late order by Geo, Pope, requiring residents
within hia lines to take tbe oath of allegiance or
emigrate, is already bearing fruit. Thirty leading
Rebels of Fredriclcsburg have gone to Richmond
with their families. Others are preparing to follow. The Rebels speak confidently of tbe capture
of Washington, within a week, by Jaokson.
A reconnoissance in force of three regiments of
Infantry aud two batallions of cavalry, with a
battery of artillery, under Gen. King, left Fred-
riciisburg in the direction of Gordonsville on Friday. They returned last night. They advanced
nearly to Orange Court House and within tan miles
of Gordonsville. Orange was occupied by a much
superior force of the enemy. Having ascertained
this fact, tbe Federal force retired, hotly pursued
by a large Rebel force of cavalry, which attacked
our rear guard several times, but were repulsed
in every instance with loss. We hear of no lose
on our side.

A skirmish is reported to have taken place at
Bolivar, Tenn., on the 27tb, between the Federal
troops stationed there aud a party of Rebels. No
particulars received.
It is also reported that the Federals h-_vo evacuated Grand Junction, aud that the rebels havo
occupied the pl_ce. It is stated that ihey now
hold almost all the Memphis and Charleston railroad between Memphis and Coriuih.
The guerrillas are getting very busy between
Cairo aud Memphis. The Mississippi river .learners are almost daily fired i uto.
Reliable authority states that the rebels have
taken possession of Humboldt, Tenn., and now
hold the Mobile and Ohio railroad at that place.—
They have torn up the track for a distance of teu
or twelve miles,
Tbe 10.h Ohio regiment, guarding the Memphis
and Charleston railroad between Decatur and
Conrtland, is reported to have been attacked oa
the _5th by a large guerrilla force. Thirty or 40
of the regiment are said to have beeu killed. The
road is considerably damaged, but not so as to cut
off connection. A large rebel force is reported
near Tuscumbia. Col. Forest (rebel) ie also reported at Carthage, with the object, it is supposed, of
making a descent on Louisville.
Sole Traoers.—An act was passed in April,
providing lhat auy married woman wishing to
transaet business in her owu name must first advertise for four weeks a notice of her intention to
apply to the District Court for permission to do
so. At lhe expiration of this notice she is to bo
examined hy the Court as to the reasons which
induce her to malic the application, and upon
such examination the Court may grant or refuse
her request, which request any creditor of her
husband may oppose by showing tbat it is iuteud-
ed to, or will, prevent such creditor from collecting his debt from her husband. In addition to
this, the statute, requires other formalities, and
provides that every woman who is now a sole tra-
