of tho Government, North and South,
to have one of tho most efficient and able
Generals removed from tho post where
ho is (joing perhaps more damage to the
rebel rauso than any other conncoted

SSSrln tho army of Arkansas nro
some 14,000 Missourians who have left

of them but has h.s personal nvongo
upon tho Lincolnilcs, in tho slmpo of
a father, brother, son, mother, wife or
sister, murdered, robbed or insulted by
these devils in human form. Ono reg
iment of 1080 men was recruited in his
native county by Col. Clarke, a son of
Governor Clarke, member of tho Con
federate Congress, whilo it was occupied
by a Federal army. Tho Colonel was
obliged to conceal himself by day and
work at . night. After filling up his
corps, ho swam tho whole 1080 mon
across the Missouri river, a mile mid

_ Richmond, Deo. 31.—Tho City Coun

LiverpoolCotton Famine.—The Rich
mond Examiner has received a Liver
pool circular of the cotton trade, dated
the Will ultimo; tho statements and
statistics of which arc interesting.
Tho figures show a sad disappoint
ment of the vision of (ho capability of
India in tho way of supplies. Tho
average supply actually received from,
India for eight-years from 1852 to 1859,
inclusive, was four hundred nnd twenty-
five thousand bales ■ per annum. In
1860 it increased to five hundred and
Bixty-two thousand, eight hundred and
fifly-tivQ bales, in 1861 to nine hundred
and eighty-seven thousand five hundred
and thirty bales, and lliisyoar, with.nil
inducements of highor prices, it is very
questionable if ono hundred thousand
bales more than last year will arrive,
whilst tho high authority of Mr. Laing.
as. woll as that of commercial houses of
high standing in Lidia, is quoted for
believing that it is very doubtful indeed
if a greater supply of cotton will be re
ceived from India in (863 than wo shall
liavo received this year.

W E bog to inform the publio that, after
much delay and cxpi-nBO, our Card
Faotory is in successful operation, with a
machine direct from Baltimoro, and wire
enough to make 12,000 pairs. Wo hope
scon to be nblo to turn out forty or fifty pair
•daily. At first thojprlces will nocossarily bo
high, but In a short time we think they can
be produced at such rates as will onablcthe
loorcst to procuro thorn. It is our objoct to
cncfit the country, am} therefore wo will
sell to parties representing neighborhoods or
counties, whero satisfactory ovldcnoo is fur
nished that they aro to bo distributed nt tho
faotory prices. At present wo cannot soli
Cards for money, but in order to get a sup
ply of hard-lann:d sheep skins, wo will buy
rrom'’partiesdo»iring to purchase Card*,mud
give Cards in exchange; ao tho first skins
delivered at Cartcrsviile will cortninly get
tho Cards. Wo belii ve tho Curds will com-
