Bragg and Col. Brown. The following is the correspondence between Gen. Bragg and Com. Brown : [correspondence. ] Headquarters, Dkp’t Florida, 1 Fort Pickens, Oct. 9, 1861. j Sir: I observe this morning, for the first time, a yellow flag hoisted over a large build ing directly in front of my batteries. I also understand that officer’s wives and children are in the adjoining buildings. Ido not make war on the sick, women or children. The buildings will necessarily be exposed to my fire, should there be a bombardment, and they are besides subject under this flag to be used as protection to any of your troops that may take shelter behind or before them. I therefore give you this notice —that the sick, women, and the children, may be re moved, so that if fired on, the resposibility may rest where it belongs. I am, very respectfully, your obedient servant, (Signed) HARVEY BROWN. Col. Commanding. Erig. Gen. Braxton Bragg, Commanding troops Near Pensacola. Headquarters, Troops C. S., ) Near Pensacola, Florida, October 10th, 18G1. ) Sir: 1 received late last night your com munication of that date, with profound as tonishment. The building on which you had for the first time observed the yellow flag has been well known to you and to all your com mand, as well as to the U. S. Navy as the mi litary hospital of this station, and you could not help knowing that it is now used for that purpose. Dealing with one who had been an old bro ther soldier of high reputation, I had hoped that eur intercourse and conduct in the hos tile attitude in which we are placed would be marked by all the courtisies and amenities of civilized warfare. But it seems from your communication that you claim the right to vi olate the Hospital Flag, because it may be abus ed. Admit this principle and we revert to a state of barbarism. The sick, the wo men and children, and the prisoners must be come objects of vengeance, the white flag must be abolished, “ Beauty and Booty,” “ Rape and Rapine” must follow in the track of a vic torious commander. I decline your invitation to make these the subjects of war. A our hospital flag has been and shall be respected. In the affair of Tuesday night your hospital with its inmates was in our pos session for at least one hour, and as far as I can learn, my orders to scrupulously respect both were rigidly enforced. (fur hospital and the two adjacent buildings occupied by medical officers will continue to be used soy legitimate purposes. Nothing has been or will be dene to attract your fire. If under these circumstances, you should put your threat into execution, which would be only in accordance with the acts of some of your brother commanders, of little experience in the custom or war, I shall take care that the fact shall be known, that it may receive, as it will deserve, the execration of the civil ized world. I have the honor to be Your obedient servant, [Signed] BRAXTON BRAGG, Major General Commanding, Colonel Harvey Brown, Commanding U. S. forces in the State of Florida. Fort Pickens.

Captain Glenn applied to Society for a few shirts and socks, which were readily granted him. A letter was read from the Foster Guards, soliciting some goods the Society had on hand, alleging that they- needed them, and found it difficult to buy such in any of the stores. It was agreed that the society give the goods to them. A letter was read from Dr. J. G. Westmore land, stating that the College Hospital, at Wil liamsburg, Virginia, did contain a great many sick soldiers, and would likely continue to have a great many more in it during the pro gress of the war. He says many articles nec essary for the sick, such as home-made wine, brandy and stimulants, which are so much needed in cases of typhoid fever, were not to be procured at all. He calls upon the Society to do all they can in contributing these and other necessary articles for the sick in this Hospital.

This is daily becoming more general among all cotton manufacturers. Under these cir cumstances, the spinners and manufacturers are showing increased confidence, and can ab stain from pressing goods on the market until prices rise in proportion Io the- value of the raw material. The Times’ city article attributes thecontin ued decline in the funds to a feeling of disquiet and the prospect of overaction at Manchester the coming winter, and the influence which a partial suspension of the cotton trade will have upon the revenue. London funds continue to decline under con - siderable realisation. Consols declined 1 on the 25th- The discount market showed increasing case.
