However, a Federal officer who proceeded some days ago up the Tennessee river as far as Eastport, in the State of Mississippi, below Florence, he found "Union sentiment" strongly prevalent along the banks, and "Union sentiment" may mean twenty-five cents a pound for cotton. It is significant that he could get so far in a single gunboat, and that he could carry away unmolested a quantity of stores intended for the Confederates from Clifton, Tennessee. The attention of the Treasury and of Congress has been turned to the best mode of cultivating and rearing cotton in the parts of seceded States in Federal hands, and of re-opening trade with Southern ports.

It is hoped that these demonstrations may shake the enemy's line, and induce him to move out from his supposed strongly fortified lines near Centreville. He certainly cannot suffer the Manassas railroad to fall into the hands of the Federals without much inconvenience. The roads are now frozen hard, but a thaw will turn them into mud, and snow, a fall of which seems imminent, will render them still less adapted for the movement of troops. There is much di

And in his determination he is well supported by the "so-called" Confederate States, which on last Thursday passed resolution that the Government would entertain no proposition for peace founded on the exclusion from the Confederacy of any of their States, and pledging themselves to continue the war till the invading enemyommanded $15 a barrel.
