B t we W .’old be pleased to see the suggestion adopted of a conres-' pendent of ths Richmond Whig: that the Present of tho Confederacy prepare a manifesto addressed to the people of all oth r countries, in ]uiti8cSiibn Of this departure from the practices of civilization, ac companied by a statement of the more prominent in- stances of Tanker departure from these practices. The detail of th* Northern vl ilations of the customary usages of war reach Europe through the newspapers, and are, no doubt, classed among sue usual exaggera tions of exasperated combatan's, but c ming front the President of the Confederacy, ithe stat'taetits will, have the authority of an official reerod. They wili er cite in thy bosoms of all men, who have a spark of humanity, the utroo.t detestation. The Yankee! do not seem to regard the opinion of the world..

In thialofif struggle the North was gaining daily in vo< n and in Slates.

To-day ws lay bofore our readers a letter addressed to .the “Mayor of the City of At-. la&ta.Gi," in which tho writer, a lady, en oloset $30, and asks the Mayor to send her the value of the money in fine tooth combs. Thifi lady lives in Arkansas—we- omit the post office and the name of the writer. In response to the request, the M vyor prooured forty-two fine combs, and muled them to her yesterday. The fair writer oould not have S3nt her letter to a more clever, accommo dating or trustworthy gentleman,"hr one who* more ready or willing to serve a lady or tho. families of soldier* in any way in hie power. If the ladies or families of soldiers, at .a distance, want to be aeecmmodated in “such mottrr*,”- their oonfidenoe will not be mis ; seed—they will sure to be accommodated— if they call on Mayor Calhonn. He is every way,*a perfect gentleman, whose band and heart are always open to serve those needing assistance. Charleston and her Defamers.

Allusion! a e rnitde 16 individual* and firms which have made patriotic sacrifice!-have been the means of farnlahing the g-.v- eranent with indispensable military supplies. So far as these strictures are of a general nature—so far as they imply a charge of the surrender or patriotism to sell-interest in the people of Charleston, they are no less nnjost to that city than they manifest an igeorauco of the principles.!/ trade. - The Southern States are engaged in a war that com. pels a resort to indirect modes of trade and traffic. In the degree Hint commerce takes circa itons channels' will be the abuses to which it la liable from the ararice of Individuals. There cofiid be no possible objection to the exchange of European 1 merchandise-for South era staples through the blockaded porta. It is a very sim ple conclusion to sajr that all commerce should b4 pro hibited, between the Confederate and foreign porta, from the fact that Yankee goods are brought from Kal ian into Charleston bearing foreign marks, and that much poisonous liquor is imported, through the same channel, that has’a Yankee origin, hut so disguised as to come in under false designations. There is no one who would defend the abase of the contraband trailo under these pactices. Bat we would ask the question, in what manner could the government hare been supplied with a van quantity of war material if the avenues to this'trade had been closed! How coaid that material have been paid for unless by tbe export of cotton!

Thu wi> counterfeit Confederate Louisiana. We have before us a copy of the New Or leans Era, of the 4ih inst. The “Unionists” in New Orltans are discussing the question ot a new State Constitution for Louisiana. It will be a be autiful piece of work from such bauds when it is done. The Era announces a series of papers from “able writers” on tfce subject. For itself, it chooses to take no part in the diecurelon. It prefers to wait and look on. It thinks there are many knoity difficul ties to bs solved before the way will be clear for a Constitution We should thiak so; be sides, what do the Yankees know about Const! tulions and what do they want with Constilu lions, if they had them ! The only talent they have shown isin overturniag free constitutions. They have dtslroyed that of tho old United Slates, and they have allowed Linco’n to tram ple upon the Constitutions of all the Northern States. We think the Yankees are living under the state of things governmental that, best sails them. They have a master at "Washing ton, and they are the masters ixt Louisiana.— They can imprison, tang, banish, confisc - plunder and eteal to their hearts’ content, not this a Yankee Paradise of Constitution, law and order! We are struck with the following naire state ment of the Era: “Th* South baa too long been deprived of tUe cxprtttion of opinion and it i3 our conviction that had she lem blessed tcith free speech and freedom of the Press, thi infernal rebellion never would have occurred. We hope, therefore, that a c;w era has dawn- el upon our history, and that henceforth a Iree expression of opinion cn any public issue will be tolerated and respected.” If that isn’t ths Devil quoting Scripture, we I are at a loss for an illustration.

The Foreign Enlistment Act is intended to prevent tbe subjects of the crown Trom going to wir when tho soveign is not at war. Thus private persona arc prohibited from fitting out a ship of war in our porta,or trow enlisting in Ihe service of a foreign Slate at war with another State, or in the service of insureenta against a ioreign. sovereign or'-tale. In these cases the person so acting would carry on war, and thus cogage the name ot their sovereign and of their nation in belligerent operations. But owners and mas ters of certain ships carrying w irhkc stores do onthing of the kind If captured for breaking blockade or carrying contraband ol war to tho neiuy of tbe captor, they submit to capture,are Ined and condemned to loso their cargo. This ia. the penalty wbioa the law of nations has affixed to suoh offenoo, and in calling upon her Mejesty’6Government ty prohibit snob ad venturer, you in effect call upon her Majesty’s Government to do that wLioh it belong! to the cruisers anil tbe Courts of ihe United States to do for..themselves. There can be only one plea for asking Great Britain thus to interpose. That plea ii, that the blookade is, in reality, incffoctive, and that merchant ships oan t nter With impunity tho blockaded ports. But this is a plea which 1 presume you will not urge. Her M*jesty’e Government have considered the blockade or an effective blookade, and have submitted to all its inconveniences as each. They cun on ly hope that if resistance should prove to be hopeless; the Confederate States will not oon- tinne the struggle; and then, if, en Ihe other hand, the restoration of the Union should ap pear to be impossible, ilie work of devastation now going on may cease. Hor Majesty’s Government ean only desire the prosperity of the inhabitants of the United Slates, whatever may be the event of the pres eut civil war. I am, etc , RUS3ELL. v to liefr I pray your Lordship’s pardon if I submit that ynu appear to have entirely overlooked a plea which I am confident enough to imagine oi no inconsiderable weight. The plea iq that the kingdom of Great Britain endeavor, in spirit, as well aa in the letler, to preserve the principles of neutrality, if not of friendship, toward a lor* eign nation in amity with it, to which it has pledged itself. The precise mode in which that, shall be done it does not presume to prescribe. That the toleration of such condnct in subjects ot Great Britain as I have'had the pain hereto fore to expose is eutely a violation of that neu trality, ia justly :o be inferred from tbe very lan guage of her Majesty’s proclamation. For it is therein declared that precisely such acta of theirs as I have bren compelled here to complain ol are done “in derogation ot their duty to her aneutral’sovereign, and incur her high dia- pUasure.” It such, then, be the true character of the proceedings to which I have hitherto called your Lordehip’s attention, they sorely merit something more of notice from her Majes ty’s Ministers than an imimaiion that they will be differed to pass unremoved, unless the pun ishment Blioll be inflicted by the nation whom they arc designed to injure. The object of the Government of the United Stales has not been to relieve itself of tho du ty or vigilaneo to capture offenders against the law; it has rather been to avoid the neces have alb the rights of civilize l v$ar- for their own security against British subject* fare observfd„tuwarda_ ns.biLlllCJaUOU Wiuana- fmt in b« euxearfU. »»»fe tiircrt-mit«r|itlBe8, gTSese rigbis are that mude imperative by the conviotioh that no icrly shall be respected, private and • - The Exchange Cartra.—The Richmond Sentinel elates that there has net been a sus pension of the exchange' cartel-between the Southern Confederacy and the: Lincoln Fed eral Government except M to 'officers, fhe course of the enemy in seizing cil'iSihs nt (heir homes sad dragging them away for exchange, has resulted in a aontroverey ihst.sicps all exchange of officers and civilians until some equitable accommodation shall be. a!rived at. piivaia properly non-combatant citizens be unmolested in their persons and estate?, and all be exempted from capture and spoliation. Our enemy ba9 chosen to ignore there rights, and to commit upon pri vate persons and property the most flagitious outrages, plunder and devastation.' It is evi dent that the enemy, baffled in his gigantic el- forts to subjugate us by his formidable armies fair and equal conflict of battle, means to em ploy. and has avowed his pufpeao to employ, the fiendish instrumentality of raids anil forays —imprisonment and plunder. His armies paoso on tbe margin of rivera under tbe cover of hie* gunboats, fearing to advance, whilst his Cavalry plays the part of brigands and robbers on our plantations and our homefcieads. -•Now, under these oireumslanots, what oaurse is left? VPhat is the duly of bur Gov ernii ent T. I answer, as the best result of mv rtfiec ions, first, that the President should without delay prepare and publish a manifesto to the whole world, setting forth these eborm- ous violations df the laws of nations, of Chris tian civilization, of - the ordinary principles of humanity, and of oar most sacred belligerent rights, by this ruthless and savage enemy.— Let him in that manifesto enumerate as parties larly and specifically as may be conaisient with becoming ‘dignity and brevity tbe in stances anil eases that have occurred, and sub mit i hem to the judgement of mankind. I am jnvinosd that lire whole truth is hot known in Europe, and is partially withheld from the Yankee nation. I sm clear that when the facts sre known in Eqrope, it will produce a sensation that has never yet been roused. It will, it must, exoite an indignation against our enemy that has never been fell before. A narration of these repeated and savage out rages t.pon our innocent oltizeos cannot fail to touch a chord Of sympathy in every human heart in foreign lands, that will result in good to us in a moral, if not in a practical uni ma terial form. It ia impostible that the enlight ened statesmen of England and France—even Earl Russell himself—ehould longer refrain from expreesions of reprobation, if not impell ed to interposo their good offices “in the in terest of humanity” to arrest tho infamous bnrbaiiii. a of these Yankee hell-hounds. -Be this as it may, it is due to ourselvss that these things should be known—should he published and prcelaimed to the civilized world and be set down and recorded in an authentic form, to be read and remembered in future ages to the disgrace and dishonor of the Yankee peo pie. Besides, it will be ear justification in another coarse 1 am about to recommend—a coarse forced upon u§ by necessity, and by. the imperative law of sslf-detenes. This brings me to the second plan.* • “Let ths eitisons everywhere urtn them selves with revolvers and doable-barrel shot guns. and organize themselves into companies, squads and-bands. When so organized, let them report thnmselves to the President, -who shell appoint and commission suitable officers, and accept them as Confederate soldiers or ganized fo r horns defease. Let the President aut orize theta toi use such expedients mud mtans and opportunities as they may have or find convenient, and let them by concerted ar rangement aveil themselves of the thousand advantages which our irregular, broken and wooded country affords, near bridges and at fords and along the roads, lie in wait and her- rsss find kill the atrocious inTader, plunder and robber, whenever and whenever they meat him.

It has keen known, for weeks, that the Fade* rala in this State as well as others, were de stroying all fanning implements, seizing all provisions slid preventing tbe planting of cro)n, with the avowed determination to starve the people into submission. W e sups iGBcd it might be possible that this was the via- Jictive cruelty ot come cowardly commander, who vented his spite on women end children.— But it is now certain that orders to that effort have issued from Lincoln's war dej.-srtTne.it.— Ph ilips, Chicot, and other counties where the Fedrrals have a foothold, they have and sre burning all the fences, plows and farming uten* eils they find. They destroy the property, of widows as well si of male citizens.

Your lordship’s language leaves me little hope of any co-operation of her Majesty’s Govern ment to those ends.

If the British Govern ment, by virtue of the prerogative of the crown, or hy authority- of Parliament, had prohibited and could ha*e prevented the conveyance in British merchant ships, of arms and ammnnis lion to the Confederate Stales, and have allowed the transport of such contraband of war to New York and toother Federal ports, her Majesty's Government would have departed from the neu tral position they had assumed and maintained. If on the other hand, her Majesty’s Govern ment had prohibited and could havo prevented, the transport of arms and ammunition to both the contending parties, they would have depriv ed the United States of a great part of the means by which they have ctrriid on. tbo war. The arms and ammunition received Torn Great Brit ain, as well as from other neutral countries,have enabled tbe United Stales to fi' out tbe formid able armies now engaged in carrying ou the war against tbe Southern States, whl'a hy means of the blockade established by tbe Federal Govern ment the Southern Stales have been deprived of similar advantages.

Lee’s general order to his corps arid division commam. ders, in which he set forth the whole ol ject and plan of his advance aero's the Potomac, and that this paper w as found and carried to McCleh lac. In this way, it is alleged, the Federal com mander was informed ot the strength and dirptfo sition of our forces, and knew that Gen. D. IL Hill, with his single division, was left to hold tbe gap at Boonsboro, whilst Jackson bad turned off at Harper’s Ferry, and foongstreet had -aken position near the Pennsylvania line Et Hagers'own. This disclosure explain, the rsp. id movements of McClellan, and the confident manner in which he foi'owed up and delivered the battle at Sharpsbttrg. Without this knowl edge it is not probable ne would have aought Lee so soon and so esgtrly; and thus the latter would have had more time to concemraie his forces, rest hi* troops, andptepare for the con flict.
