General Green insists that London has been made the centre of payments by the aetion of | the Bank of England. The tollowing is a part of bis pamphlet: “Why is it that the average rate of interest tor English securities aud lor money in London, rules lower than elsewhere, and that yet any I one, in any other part of the world, wishing to | the different portions of the British ompire, place money in London, is required to pay a pre» hut for various divisions of the globe—in minm to do it 1 Is it not because the Bank of I fact London is the bullion market of the England to regulatet the exchanges as it) make I world—the clearing house of the nations.

The Bank of England by raising the rate of interest occasionally causes u tempo- j rary scarcity of money, but as the rate of inter est depends, in the long.run, on the rate of profit, and this on the abundance of capital as compar ed with the demand for it, it is impossible for | any power to elevate or depress the rate of inter est continuously.

They would hang Vallandig* ham and every other person who bad been 1 prominent in urging his views, and then turn upon- us with ten fold fury—their present appear to indicate.

Richmond, March 6, 1863. • The report of the Military Committee to be di c cli irged from the iurthor consideration of the bill (o accept troops from Missouri and Kontncky for a less period than three years, gave rise to a lengthy and animated discus sion in the House, on Monday last. In favor of the acceptance of such troops, Mr. Foote, of Tennessee argued that from the wars of Cyrus the First to the present day, no judi; cions commander had refused the-eervices of able-bodied and high-spirited soldiers for any length of time proposed. His own belief, was “ that if wo would d > our whole duty, the war would be brought to a close in the next thirty days-” The grounds upon which Gov. Footo predicates his belief that the war might be brought to a close so qpon, arc known only to thoso who have had the privilege of listen ing to his arguments in secret session, and ore supposed to have connection, with the re port of the Committee on Foreign Relations, upon tho resolutions in regard to the Yankee States bordering on the Mississippi. It was well, perhaps, that the distinguished speaker checked himself before proceeding further on this topio, as the opinion ia now becoming universal, throughout the South, that any hopes of a termination ot the war by a revo lutionary dismemberment of the Northern despotism, would be worso than fallacious.—' In their effect nt least, they might beoomo criminal. While the Northwestern States of the old oveynmonl retained any of the muniment of their ancient liberties, tnoy might have sev ered their qounectiou with the Now England Slates, and ubfur-cd the banners of a sepa rate nationality ; that limb has gone by. l’hd hour of their oloctiou has passed They hxi as gallant spirits hs ev< r drew sword in the holy t-ayse ot freedom to sound tbe alarm and stir up in their souls a manly resistance to arbitrary and oppressive usurpations of- p>w- er, but they beeuedtheqi not. ” Macedonian gold was more powerful than the eloquence of tho Athenian orator.” Tho counsels of Vallandigham were spurned, and -now they glory in their chains aud flaunt the badges ol perpetual shame. Their rights, their liber | ties, thpir laws, and tbe very boundaries which hitherto marked the limits^ of their separate sovereignties have all disappeared beneath -the shadow of tbe dictator’s throne. It is now too firmly established on the ruins of their former government to.have much to fear from disaffected or disloyal subjeois. Submission is inevitable. What matters it to them wheth er it be voluntary or constrained ? lienee, it wei e criminal longer to induce or euoour-tge a hope that, might tend to any relaxation of that unconquerable and determined energy wii-ich has so far borne us, in victory and 'n confidence, through the darkest perio is of the revolution, and on which alone, under a ben eficial Providence, we must continue to rely until we have acnieved our independence.— The discussion on the motion to discharge'the Committee from the further consideration of the resolution, which would be equivalent to refusing to receive Kentucky and Missouri troops for a term of twelve months, resulted in its adoption, but a mottos to reconsider is nending, which may bring it up again at any moment British flag with their own. They may now safely transport their treasure without fear of the dreadful “pirate” xrom San Francisco to New York, finder the flag of Great Bri tain. Tne resolution of Mr.. Semmes looks to this cute arrangement, and will be likely to lead to such action ^ will derarge ihoir plans. . > The Exemption bill of theSena'o is still pend- ng in ibe House, and it isImpossible to predict what will b© its ultimate fate.- The position.of the Senate in reference to it, as well as the point ot difference between the two Houses is.luily stated by Mr. Yancey. He said, “The -£ouse had advanced the idea that the great laboring, agricul'ural population was to be lclt to their own uneducated and unenlightened efforts to pro duce provisions which were as- essential to the army as powder gnd shot. The Senate had re jected that idea and must continue to reject alj, ideas which exclude the consideration of the sus tanencc of ihe army.” Either House must re cede from its its present action or the E.xcintion Law of last year will continue in force. Two very important bills are now before the Senate—one reported front the Committee on Commerce to abolish all ports of Delivery in the Confederate States; the other front the Com mittee on the Post Office, declaring the tele graph a pan of our.poetnl system, and lo provide tor wording the same. As .both bills propose material changes in our present revenue and pos tal systems, 1 shall watch their progress and re port insults. The reports of Generals Polk, Hardee and Cheatham of the action of their respective coips at the battle of Shiloh, April6th and Till, 1862, have been officially communicated to the House and ordered to be printed. Commissioner Ould has officially contradicted the Yankee newspa per statement that the President had abandoned the policy oi his Proclamation in reference to Yankee officers captured since January 1, 1862. On the contrary,Mr. Ould distinctly informed the Federal Agent,' Ludlow, tlfai it would be rigidly enforced. This will put ar end lo many silly rumors which have obtained wide circula tion and some credence. The Grand ' Army of the Potomac—at* least what m b y be left of it—is still supposed to be encamped along me Rappahannock. The fiiteen or twenty thousand men sent to Fortress Mon roe and Newport News, were known to have been demoralized, and were transferred to where they could not easily desert.

Let the minions of the despot feel a .freeman’s wralb, before he pollutes your sacred soil. Vicksburg, Savannah and iHhatleston will go down to future ages as the Three cities of the Southern Revolution. CHEROKEE. The country at large is indebted to Mr, Kenan, of Georgia, for the adoption of a rule no less expedient than absolutely neces sary in view of the reckless maniu-r in which the paramount and pressing interests of the Oouutry have been neglected, chiefly -from the undue attention claimed for questions of litile or no immediate importance. ^Mr. Kenan’s resolution provides, that the further consideration of ail ques.ions, report of bills, resolutions, &c, be suspended until the eurrency and tux bills are acted upon. It was carried by Ayes 67 to Nays 10. The currency bill has brert disposed of, and wt have, in the ten votes against the resolution, ten potent reasons for believing that the tax bill will suffer no unnecessary delay; for Buncombe will be impatient so long as the doors of the House are barred against the outside'world. It was generally-supposed that tbe lax bill would be 'considered with open doors, but it is intimately oonnooted with the currency bill, and perhaps, from the con sideration of greater -despatch to whioh I have just alluded, it was deemed best, by a very decided majority, to push it through in sc ret session. Themoit prominent new questions before the Senate during the week, were tho report from the Committee on Commerce in relation to tho free navigation of fhe Mississippi riv er and its tributarios, and the resolution ol Senator Semm'es, of Louisiana,- instructing the committee on the judiciary to inquire into the expediency- ot revoking the assent of the Confederate Government to the Decla ration of the Paris Convention. “That the neutral flag covers enemy’s goods with the exception of contraband of war.” With re spect to the former subjeot—the free naviga tion of tho Mississippi, I have on a former occasion, briefly stated the law of nations, adopted and acted upon, on one memorable occasion, by tha American Government. The' Teport merely declaims' that that law, guar antceing the rights of friendly reparian States to the free navigation of the Mississip pi and its tributaries shall not bo disturbed by tbe Coe federate Government. The object and importance of Mr. Semmes resolution may be understood when we con sider that the millions of gold drawn from the rich bods of California are now shipped by the terrified Yankee capitalists in British bottoms, not to London but to New York, tbe British flag having been admitted to (he coasting trade of the United States on the Atlantic and Paeific Oceans.-including the inter-Oceanic transit between Aspinwall and Panama. -You will remember that, in the year 1854, among tbe last af the series of re forms made^in the navigation laws of Great Britain, was the throwing open to all friend ly flags that chose to avail of the privilege, the coasting trade not only of. the ports of the united kingdom, but with a few except ions, solely of fiscal character, tbe potts, also, of all the Colonial possessions of the British Crown, throughout the world. At this moment at least seventy five per. the people of Ohio desire peace—not that they 1 have any sympathy qfith the rebellion,, or that they would not make any and every sacrifice to restore the Union—but because rliey are con and moieeven—any thing short oi apolitical on- I vincedUiallUe imbecility and corruption which ; .tit. ihpm ■(■»..,■,• .
