The South needs commercial pion* i rs.
Commercial Conventions can do but
little in diverting its trade from unna
tural to natural channels. A few
bold practical adventures of Southern
merchants, would do more to effect the
object desired than a thousand conven
tions. How such enterprises should be
conducted during the continuance of the
blockade we do not. undertake to sug
gest ; but if our people gii irantee to
European vessels return cargoes we
have no doubt the risk will be taken
"even in Europe.
The po’icy of England ami France to
wards Mexico is intimately connected
with this subject. Our trade may, dur
ing the war, pass through Mexican
ports.

and with the latter only for the reas

From the Richmond Dispatch, 19.
FSGllf NE%R HARPER*" 2 i RRA'.
Official advices have been received at
the War Depai tment of an attack, by
Col. Turner Ashby, commanding a small
force, with a superior body of the ene
my, on Wednesday, the 161 h in.-t , at a
place called Bolivar, contiguous to H.tr
: tier’s Ferry. The Federals, numbering,
j with subsequent reinforcements, from
i 800 to 1,000 men, were sent over to
’ protect th ? transportation of grain from
i zAshby, wilt: 500 men, 300 of whom were
■ militia, met and drove them back with
i considerable slaughter. The action
i commenced at eight o’clock in th" morn-
■ ing, ami terminated about eleven. It
| is to be partietihii iy noted as the'first
1 in which the Virginia militia have b»’en
engaged in a hand-to-hand encounter
with the enemy, and he result reflects
the highe.it credit upon that branch of
the service. At a charge bayonets,
they drove the Hessians before them,
; down the hill into the village of Har-
■ pel’s Ferry, at wl. ch point: in the pur
suit they were checked by a detachment
of artillery, supposed to have been
Doubled.ty’s batt ry, stadoned on the
Maryland Heights. Col. Ashby now
i withdrew h s troops to a point behind
' the nil!, for the purpose of protecting
I them from die shot and shell, which fell
j thick ami fast around them, but fortu-
I nately with little effect.
The loss of Itte enemy in the engage
| mem, as reported by a woman who as
; turw -.ids came out from Harper’s Ferry
i and saw the dead carried away in wag
' ous, was at least titty or sixty, in ad<i;-
! lion to which our men captured twelve
|or fourteen prisoners. Among the lat
j ter are some Lhiion men, who had been
• particularly busy in aiding th? Federals
Iby means of signals. Our loss was one
i killed (Zamper, of the Shenandoah mili
! tia,) and ten wounded —two supposed
; mortally.
A painful incident attended this bril
’ li.ant affiir. Three meml.ers of the
i Botts Greys, of «L ff rson County, who
were at home on furlough, participated
in the fight as volunteers, and two of
the number wounded—one (name B 11
desperately, ami his life ;s despaired of.
Col. .Ashby’s success would have been
m ich greater but lor a luck ol cannon,
and very few of the enemy would have
left the field of battle, lie li id but one
; efficient, gun, and another improvised
for the occasion -a t w-n y-four-p u ider
1 mounted on wagon wh vis, which, any
i artillerist will readily concede, was
i very difficult to manage. .Justice to
! this br ve and gallant officer d ‘mauds
duit he sh mid 1 e amply siipplh d with
every facility lor successful warfare, to
increase his influence on that border as
: a terror to the invaders By’ a curious
! coincidence, this light took place on the
1 second anniversary of the John Brown
raid, and in the very locality of that no
! (aide event.

Tennessee Anti-Dog Law.—Tennes
see has just illustrat' d her sagacity by
levying a State tax of live dollars nch
upon every superfluous dog. House'
holders are allowed to retain each, one
dog, but a penalty of twenty'dollars is
imposed on the owner if his dog is con
victed of killing a sheep. Hereafter
there will be some chance for wool and
mutton in Tennessee—for the farmers
will not allow that law to remain a
dead letter.
In Georgia we estimate there are
about three hundred thousand dogs;
the bulk of them of no value in any
capacity, except to bay the moon and
make night hideous. The expense of
feeding these dogs would make ample
provision for many a poor soldier's
fan ily, and they also prevent the rear"
ing of about half a million sheep, which
would cost little or nothing to feed
diem, and nett (heir owners about one
million dollars per annum in wool and
meat, bo hos which are now so sadly
needed, besides vastly improving the
land upon which they graze.
I i’lie question is now, whether dogs
I are so inseparable to onr habits and
internal policy that an unlimited sup
ply must be maintained at this expense
and sacrifice; or will the Legislature
put in force a vigorous enactment by
winch planters ami fa; mors can main
tain their flocks from depred iti m and
destruction. v Ve know several plan
ters who have been compelled to aban
don sheep raising on account of the
dogs, ami tell us it is mere folly and
waste of time and pains to attempt the
business, un il the dogs, are abated in
some way. The Tennessee Legislature
has set Georgia an example which • we
would do well to follow.—JZizcon Tele

A Spunky Cuffee 1- The best joke of
the season is the arrest in New York of
a stalwart son of A rica for delivering
a vehement speech in favor of Secession.
After he was taken into < ourt, he insis
ted on continuing bis harangue, and of
fered to prove to the satisfaction of the
Court, that the Yankees were guilty of
a monstrous crime and folly in insure
reeling against their legitimate mas
ters, the gentlemen of the South.
I he New York Journ 7 of Com
: nie/Cf, of the 23d ult., says that Chase
1 has prepared an exposition of the law
Irela'iiig both to the confiscation of
1 Southern property and the prohibition
of commercial in term ursc with the South.
It gives positive assurance that money
on deposit in banks ami elsewhere in
Northern states will not be disturbed
unless t ere is te.ison to believe that it
is to be used in aid of the South The
matter of fact that it belongs to a resi
dent of the States declared to be in a
state of insurrection, is not to Le eon
| sidered a reason lor its arrest, and it
in iy rmiiain on deposit as undisturbed
|as it’it were owned in the North.
