PRENTICEANIA. Homphrey Marshall says ina late letterto one of our State functionaries that he thinks and acts for himself. Undouhtedly he is a personace of a great deal of sternncess, The Chattancoga Rebel hopes that the Northern crops will fail this season. Ah, Rebel, you are a fool. If our crops fail, we shali come and eat up yours. The two Gen. Hills in the rebel army are con- siderably advanced in life. Gen. Lee is rather old, but not “as old as the Hills.” STAR. ‘The Chattanooga Rebel says that Morgan ; and Forrest are “live Generals.” Yes, but they wouidn’t be if the gallows had its dues. It is pro; a that Gen. Fremont take com. mand of devils half a chance? ‘he Federal authorities occupy the capitals | rapecn spre iM E | by General Orders No. 46, of 1863, from War Depart- | ment.

All of our people owe allegiance to the Goy- ernment, but with some of them it is like the other debts they owe—they’ll never pay it. if Vicksburg Falls. . The Richmond Enguirer of the 36th ult., in an article upon the military and political bearings of the contest” says :— Yet, if it be fated, that in spite of all human valor and devotion can do, Vicksburg and its gefendere should Jecome the prey of our ene- my, then indeed will come the tug of war. ‘Then also will come tlie politicel crisis. What- ever of imbecility and faint-heartedness and downright latent toryism and treason exists in this Confederacy, will at once receive a new accession of weakness; many will again begin to cry out for “an honorable peace,” as they ‘will call it, by means of submission to one sec- tion of our invading focs who are now raging over our country with fireandsword. * * Vicksburg is at this time a point not only of gitategic but alco of political importance. ‘While onr fidg flies deflant over the great Fiver, no party of compromise can venture to raise its head, no man will dare to breathe one word of “reconstruction ’ in whole or in part. All will be good Confederates. The canse which is auppored to be failing and sinking is the one which is likely to be abandoned by the cowards, and betrayed by the <raitors. To the cause Which prospers we are always true as steel. For this reason the result of these Virginia elections, or any elections. is by no means of so decp & political significance as the result of those battles round Vicksburg. All the gentle- men elected the day before yesterday are to-day, we hope and beheve, faithtuland resolute Con- federates, whether they be late secessionists or cirginal ones. If any of them have uncon- sciously lurking within them some relic of ten- derness for the old Union, some undefined hankering after a peace by total or partis! re- construction upon any terms whatever, * hon- orable” or otherwise, the successful defence of Vicksburg will help to obliterate the last tinge or taint of such anti-Confederate sentiment * * Yetsomethere are, who would see in the fall of Vicksburg an occasion, perhaps even a reason, for drawing back from the ex- treme measure of our proud position and list- ening to compromise and an honorable peace. ProtectinG Exrosxp Brick WaLLs rrom Raty.—A correspondent, a few days ago, re- quested seme information which would enable him to pretect exposed brick walls from the damaging Northeasterr rain storms which fre- quently destroy the plastering on that side of the house, mould stain and loosen the paper- ing on the wails. The Scientific American says: It is well known thatal: eoast the walls of bri E storms trom the iy penetrated with ertoa depth of two fvet, unless they are counted with some water tight substance. Bricks are yery porous and absorb moisture freely, hence brick gasle veails ex- posed to such storms ure usually covered with uthick coat of piaster, put on with a brush. | One of the best water-tight compositions that can be employed for such walls is a mixture of hydraulic cement and boiled linseed oil. Gry it is perfectly water-proof. @ The Supreme Court of New York City | have just rendered an important decision. It appears that, some few years ago, Judge Roose- velt lent $+,u00 on bond and mortgage to Sam- uel Bowne who,sincethen, conveyed his prop- erty !o Meyers, subject to the mortgage. The money was loaned in gold, and was to be re- turned in gold or its equiyalent. The amount of the loan was oflered in “ greenbacks,” but refused by ‘ir. Rooseveit, and Mr. Mayers sue to have the mortgage delivered up.
