Howell Cobb, R. Toombs, M. J. Crawford, and Thos. R. R. Cobb have published an ad- dress to the ple of G in which they enumerate the progress of the rebellion, and call attention fo the following points: First. The moderation of ou: own Govern- ment = the —— —— of our enemies have dispersed all differences of opinion amon, our people, and united them forever in thowne of independence. In a few border States a waning opposition is giving way before the stern ) of daily developing facts. The world’s history does not give a parallel instance of a revolution based upon such unanimity among the le. Second. Our enemy hasexhibited an energy, a perseverance and an amount of resources which we had hardly ted, and a disre~ gard of constitution and laws which we can hardlycredit. The result of both, however, is that power which is the characteristic clement of despotizm, and renders i‘ as formidable to its enemies as it is destructive to its subjects. Third. An immense army has been organ- ized for our destruction, which is being discip- lined to the unthinking stotidity of regulars. With the exclusive possession of the seas, our enemy is enabled to throw upon the shores of every State the nucleus of an army. And the threat is made, and doubtless the attempt will follow in early spring, to crush us with a giant's grasp, by a simultaneous movement slong our entire borders. Fourth. With whatever alacrity our people may rush to arms, and with whatever energy our government may use its resources, we can- notexpect tocope with our enemy either in numbers, equipments, or munitions of war. .To provide against these odds, we must look to desperate courago, unflinching daring, and uni- versal self-sagrifice. Fifth. The prespect of foreign interference is, at least, a remote one, and should not be re- lied on. If it comes, let it be only auxiliary to our own preparations for freedom. To our God and ourselves alone we should look. These are stern facts, perhaps some of them sre unpalatable. But we are deceived in you if you would have us to conceal them in order to deceive you. The only question for us and for you is, as @ nation and individually, what have we todo? Wean-wer: - Asa nation we should be united, for- bearing to one another, frowning upon all fac- tious opposition and censorions criticisms, and giving trustful and generous confidence to those selected ag our leaders in the camp and the council chamber. Second. We should excite every nerve and strain every muscle of the body politic to maintain our financial and military heaithful- ness, and, dy per aggressive action, make our enemies feel at their own firesides the hor- ters of a war brought on by themselves. The address then proceeds to recommend , and says: Let every woman havo a terch, every child a firebrand; let the loved homes of our youth be made ashes, and the fields of our heritage be made desolate; let blackness and ruin mark re departing steps, if depart you must, and ‘et a desert more terrible than Sahara welcome the vandals; let every city be leveled by the flame, and every village be lost in ashes. RE-ENLISTMENT. All the Southern papers which have recently come to hand abound in appeals to the volun- teers, both editorially and in the shape of communications, to re-enlist promptly. A correspondent of the New Orleans Delta writes as follows: “We hear frequent complaints frem the army on the Potomae, that furloughs are now denied all soldiers, unless on condition of their re-enlisiment, and are thus used asa system of compulsion over the men. The project of retaining in service for a certain term the bulk of ms arm ety in the are discharging a portion of each company, an sremplng them from compaulsery military duty for a limited time, and with a proper re- ard to the necessities of the men their Froanes: and applying the compulsory system to citizens remaining at home, requiring terms of service from them equal tothe aggregate time of the volunteers, is recommended as a plan cembini the advan of efficiency, uniformity, and an equal distribution of bur- dens. It is said that such a plan would satisfy the volunteers in the field; it would avoid the charges of injustice, inequality, &c.; would infliet no peculiar hardships on any class, and would have the advan of keeping always a certain number of tried troops in the field, assuring the un‘nterrupted and efficient organ- ization_of the urmy, and giving it additional strength.” ee - Patriotism Unpge Dirricuntizs,—A Chi- ey red a gtungie, Ber, ‘of Chi left fi * Solomon mi ls ‘or Cairo on Friday, Lara 5 steam-tug, ihe Mul- ford, to report as a volunteer to Flag-officer Poote.

After being thoroughly repaired and strengthened she was taken to St. Louis by way of the Ilinois Canal and river, at an additional cost of $2,500. No government it at St. Louis was authorized to purchase the tug, but promise was made that Fremont weuld be communicated with on the subject.

THE LATEST The London Times’ city article says: An uneasy feeling prevails that an avoidance of complica- tions in connection with American politics cannot be permauently anticipated. The belief gains ground tn an intervention by the French yovern- ment meepeets @ the blockade. Mr. Massey, a member of Parliament, in a Speech to his constituents, advocated European interference to close the struggle between the North and South, by recognizing the rebel States and breaking the blockade. His speech had at- tracted attention. The Times says: ‘ Let France interfere if she likes. England's line of policy is to suffer a littie longer, and let the events work themselves out. It will not belong. It may, indeed, be doubtful whether our interference would not rather retard than hasten the desired event, of opened poris and a large supyly of cotton. Let us, then. pursue an honest policy of standing quite aloof.” The Menchester Guardian argues ina some- what ssmilar starin, and ways ‘it js a question whether the prevailing distreas {s not as much at- tributable to over-production as to a mere dearth of cotton.”? ‘The Times publishes a letter calling attention to the fact that the U. 8. gunboat Tuscarora has infringed the rules of neutrality, and calling on the gecoenent no longer to tolerate such a fla- grant disregard of neutral rights. it is represented !n England that Charleston is well defended, and that between that city and Savannah Gen.

The French government journals continue to make the most of the Charleston blockade. The Sumter reached Gibraltar on the 19th of Januaty, and on her e thither burnt an American bark and captured a brig. The latter, however, was released. The brig West Indian arrived at Liverpool, from Charleston, on the 24th of December, with & cargo of spirits turpentine. The captain re- presents the blockade as ineffectual, and says that the stone blockade instead of stopping the en- trance to the port, will ‘eventually deepen the shallow channels, and the citizens of Charleston have wey little uneasiness on the subject. Several wrecks are reported with loss of life It is expected that all the colliers recently buried by the coal mine accident have perished, as six days elapsed without any being rescued. IRISH INTELLIGENCE. A deputation of gentlemea from the counties Sligo, Roscommon and Galway, headed by the O’Couner Don, waited on the Lord Lieutenant to presen’ petitions on the subject of the prevailing istress in these counties, ind desiring that the ‘overnment should adopt measures of relief. His Sxcellency stated the subject should receive the attention it deserved but that the government had Information thatthe distress was likely to prove less formidable than was apprehended.
