The spirit of Freemen.

--The Mobile Advertiser, after detailing the unfortunate aspect of affairs at New Orleans, concludes with the following spirited remarks:

‘ It is plain that the Southern people are not to be frightened into submission by successes of the enemy. They must be killed to be conquered, and the earthly power does not exist which can conquer our two millions who can bear arms. We have made up our minds to endure all things, to suffer all things, in testimony and defence of our cause of the right of self government, and the enemy will find that the closer they press us the more dangerous we become. It is a fearful experiment to put a brave people at bay, and seldom in the history or the world has it been successful, under the most advantageous circumstances, to the assailants.

’
