We always shall be Uni we aho believe that there is a vast difference between freedom of the press in times like Ibese, and in times of peace. In limes of peuce a newspaper can any whatever it wisbrs without doing Vila! injury to our liberties Now, iiowerer, an mCis crtetly conducted newspaper cun do iih great barm by udvoculmg meu>ores which, if earned out, would deprive us ol < or liberties allcg. tiier. We have lately seen articles which bare been published in several ol the North Carolinu papers. Homs of them advocate m,t k rg perce w:lh tbe North on any terms; others advocate peace strongly, but do rot stale on what conditions One paper tbi nks the t lie its of tbo South to . am its freedom will be a failure, 't alk of ff kind at the present imneiit, cannot be chased under tbe bead of “ f rtedoni cf the jiress.” it is no tbiDg more or less ilian treusou ; rank and open treason. No one who is with ufl would be guilty of giving utterance to such‘Sentiments. Tbe edi tors of newspapers wbo publish inch ideam should be urresled and dealt with us traitors. Our authorities by pursuing su li a course would not interfere with the freedom ol tbe press in tbe toagt. We think it is thelr sacred duty to ‘do something that will stop such procttdn g* ; and when they take tbe mutter in band, tbe more etleofcul tbe remedy they apply the better, ft will be u lesson to hosts ot other trea on hatchers in our midst, it will teach them that they cun not proclaim their doctrines openly ; although they may think ua they please. It will prevent them from endeavoring to indueuce others to adopt theii^traitorous views, for tear of using ex posed and of meeting with a traitor’s reward.

Fsdsral Troops at Fortksss Mivcrov—The Richmond papers construe the Yankee announce ment that the troops concentra'ing at Fortress Monroe are intended for Charleston, to mean that they are really designed to operate sgaiast Rich mond. They aay: At this season of the year troops will not be sent from tbe North fb Cbnrieetcu.

When the enemv had approached sufficiently near, r.took in alt sail, and wearing abort round, ran up witbm ha 1. it was now dark, it bring about seven o’clsck, Tbe enemy hailed, “What sh,p is that?’ We responded, “Her Majesty ’a st- auier Bette .” The reply *a«, ‘ I will send a hputtin board.” We bow baited wi turn to anew who tbe enemy Was, and when wc bad received H e ri piy that he was tba ‘‘United States steatmr Hatteras,” we again hailed him, and informed him that we were tbe Confederate steamer Alabama, and at the same l mb 1 directed tbe hirst Li.ureittnt to open tire upon him. Our lire was promptly returned, end a brisk ac tion ensued, which !as ed, however, ouiy thirteen minutes, as at tbe end of that time the eudmy tried an elf-gun and show da ig.t; and npen being baited by us, to know it he baa surrender ed, lie replied that he bad, and that he was in a sinking cou i.u n i immedia ely despatched boats to his assistance, and had just tiuis to! re nte va the crew when tbe ship weut dowu. The casualties were slight on both sides, although the nctiou was fought at u disianee of from one bun dled and tilty to four bundled yards. Our shot all told on bis hull about tbu water tine, and b nee tbe small Lumber of killed und wounded on the part of tbe enemy—two of the former and three of tbe latter, vt e bad none killed, and on-, ly one wounded. The Hatteras mounted eight gans, and bal a crew of eightecu officers and one huedred and eight men Tbe Alabama also mounted eight guns, (wnh a tmall captured pit ce, a 24 pounder, 100 light to be of any ser vice,; and bad a ersw of one hundred and ten men, exc.tisive of officers. F’cur of the flatte nin' guns were 32 pounders—tbe same calibre us our Uroads de guns, but our pivot guns were heavier thap hers—this being the only disparity between the two ships. We received a lew shot holes from tbe enemy, doing no material damage. The enemy’s steamer Brooklyn and auotbtr steamer steamed cut in pursuit of us soon after the action commenced, but missed us in the darkness of tbe night.

Lord Balmki.ston on tok Mkxican QoetTioN —La Butrie, the oi gan of ihe FTench Emperor, thinks vl at l.ord Palmerston does not like the sue. cesses ot the Fieucu u rns in Mexico, au.l that he is also inclined to grumble at the course the Em peror has tuken. T. eLa Paine remarks thus on the present poailion occupied by the English statesman : The news of the surrender of Mexico and its necapatitn by tho French troops has th.own the English | ivss in u state of ast./ni-hment which the Morning Post does not conceal.

Spy to an Huno.—A Ittler Irom fort Gaines in Mobile Daibor, dated .the 8 U inat., gives an account of the sentence ol death having been passed upon u spy. He is a Captain of the 23d New Vink regiment, came through oar hues ut Richmond, Vu , uud bus been spying ever since. Me lias visited Charleston, Huviunah, Chattanoo ga an I this town, us also nearly every prominent point in the Confederacy. His last visit wus to Mobile, whore his money gave out, and he then endeavored to pi ocure a position as substitute in one of the companies stationed at Fort Guinea, but ibe Colonel refused to ucc.-pt him, not be lieving him ahove the conscription age. He then went over lo Fort Morgan, where he was taken us a substitute ; about two weeks alter, he left his post aild started lor the Yankees. Pursuit wus immediately made, and cur men succeeded in catching him übnul six miles Irom the Fort. Upon his person v as found a plan ot Forts Gaines aud Morgan, giving t! e strength ot the torts and Ihe number aud size of the gnns. lie ivas c Hii'toiurtialleil and sentenced to and. ath. The sentt nee bus been approved by tbo J’resident, and ho will bo shot o r the 2Sih iust. Alter his capture he confessed being u spy, and gave the number of his regiment. The tact that this man wus able to visit the plates he clonus, and make plans ol important position! without being detteted, proves that cur uutho.ities ure not striot onongti in their drillings with strangers. It admonishes not only our mili tary commandants, but also our civil rulers, to be more on tbe alert. It is no tnrrn to watch all who travel through our luu& An honest m&D, in these tunes, will uot olject to give a lull ac count of himself, uud be prepured to prove what he says. It is the rogues that will demur at such treatment. If a proper vigiluuce was manifested everywhere, 1. ncolu’s Generals would obtain much itss information about cur attairs than they do now. I’rksihrnt Lincoln and ths Vallandishah Coaamts.—The New York correspondent of the Loudou Times is bitterly severs on Presi dent Lincoln in bis reply to the committee that wated on him to -procure the release of Mr. Yalluudigbaai. The letter winds up as follows : The whole proceedings iu this case, as far as the President is c-ncerned, has been one stu pendous and wholly unnecessary blunder. Per haps the worst part of the blunder is. that Mr. Lincoln has been unwise enough to offer rea s us for his conduct. If he had annuded Mr. Val'uudigham'B sentence he would have done w< 11. It be had refused to disannul it, without stating why or wherefore he would not have done q ute so well, but he would hare done bat ter thau bv an elaborate statement, lull es. false reasonicp*w>id quiddities of pettifogging law, to have ui aw uupoa it tut Da 11 the di^tt.li-d rebuke of t e Ono committee. As the case now stands he has exhibited himself before Kurops and his own countrymen in the light of a tyrant, without any ol the mental or moral qualities that may seire to make tyranny respectable u they cannot make it agreeable. New Orlx.vns.—A great many newspaper s r.bblers have, from time to time, been endeav oring <o prove that the residents ot New Orleans were cow entirely Federal in their feelings These wiseacre3 lounded their articles on rumors, not tails. The auutxsd statement proves that there is still a spirit of loyally htt iu the place— a spirit that will "give a good account ot itself,* whenever opportunity otftrs : Vl La the bout that contained Confederate pri soners an tv ed , u New Orle us a lew days since, ihe Indieslof he place crowded as close to it as the guard would allow them. There were aso many gentlemen to greet ihe prisoners The Uuies proposed to the Federal officers to tarnish the prisone,s with some Desk provisions.

What’s m the wind f Some say he is to supersede Meade in the command ol the Army cf the Potomac. It is said that Meade has twice tendered his resignation.

Tiie Stock of ro'inn in tu* confrdc*' me S’istei. A gentleman who resides in the South bus wriiten a letter to a London journal Concerning the stock of Cotton now ifn the ( ont-dtrate States. We do not know wfr.it basis be hur tor bis figures or specu lafions. But as the ••cott. a question” is one of deep interest we nub hah the article : In the several communications recently pnb - fished concerning tlm stock ot connu in the Cnnlcderata Stales, no niiowa ice has ba. u made for that consumed by tbo people oi the South, wbo hays depended since the Is* ol Amy, ISB 1, on their own manufactuies for their dry goods. Tbe quantity of the raw material thus taken up to tiie Ist of Sep ember imt, will be equivalent to at least 1,500,U0d bulls, cotton hav ing been used for almost every cocc-ivaole pur pose. As nearly the whole crop of,lßtiU was ex torted, shipments continuing up to Juij, IStil, the following statement, based upon information from tbe cotton States, may be reguided ss a fair approximation to the number of bales ut the commencement of tbe next commercial year: Bales. Crop of 18dl : 8 ,sk',<XK) Crop of 1862.1 1.00u.w0 Crop of 1865.. .v .... 1,005 000 T0ta1...,.:.' .** 5,5 k) 000 Exported 150,000 Destroyed....... .850 000 Consumed i .aoo.uOU Stock on hand on the Ist Sept., 1863 5,000.000 Os tMa quantity, however, it is not likely tuat more than 2,000,000 bates could be sent to mar ket prior to the close of the shtppiug season in 1864, under the most favorable cncianalauces, one half of which will be required by toe manu facturers ot the American States. Should peace be concluded by the Ist of July, mere tha t a year thereafter would be needed to place the in land transportation .facilities of the South iu the Same cuudition that they occupied previoue to the War, and in the mean»hll« the process of getting the cot:on to the ports would nut only be very tedious, but very expensive. The usual imports o! cotton into Great Britain consist of eighty per cent. American and twenty per cent, other sorts. The experts from here io the conti nent being pritcipn.- of Surats, leave eighty five per cent.

'* a a/s on hand, made the importing, South for the period of three uroumiug that the warthonses would I- H.rei; unptied. Twenty six months of that tipa havi- Already elujised, and thirty months Will have iiaiirpired before uny possible relief can be expe-ieuecd. Cotton is now selling pt Liverpool at “three prices,” or famine rates.. W hat, then, must ba its value a lew mou:lis hence V Surely the wuie houses floors cannot be swept clean. Alter two years of “ egitaiion” on the subject, increased supplies do not come forward from In dia and other countries, the additional quantity thence not exceeding the groat waste in ini-Fede ral States for war purposes. Nor 'i it p-bable that there would be any damend for such ■ out side” productions. They may answei lor certain deser ptions of manufactures for nome u-e, hut the great export trade of England is in guois made from American cotton, and it seems folly to iunugmo that India cun, in any event, occupy the place of America iu this particular, unless by some freak of nature the peculiar climate influ enced by the Gulf stream, and other u'.ivdutuges possessed by the States lor tne col, ure of their staple, be transported to the tar East. The aver age consumption on both sides of tne Atluul c, subsequent to the discovery of gold in California and Australia has been about 8 000,000 bales per annum ; for ten years preceding that epoch it was ou.y 2,400,000 bales, ft is reasonable to sup pose, then, that upon the recurrence of peace the uemaud will g; eatly increase. Oa the ist of September next there will be only one year's stock of law cotton, ut the old esti mate, end the warehouses wifi contain but six months’ supply oi cotton and cotton goods, whereas, they should have enough for two years. This mukes a dificieucy equivalent to 4,0 (0,000 bales, taking into consideration tbe ordinary stocks, and 7,000,000 bales below what wag in ex istence at the consuming points at the time of the full ol Fort Sumter, it will therefore require .' i-o or toar sea.?.ns of excessive crops to bring soHon down to ite uoaunal price. Not only has tne ordinary demand to he e.upphed, but the usu al Blocks have to accumulate, The capital witb diuwu from the cotton trade by .eason ol the American war has been tbe means of founding joint stocks, bunks end financial uiacci 'inns; n turn, the same funds will pats through these new sleeves into their accustomed ohunnel. The tore oiiig statement differs Irom one inserted in your columns some days ago, to the extent of 1,500,000 bales, the writer of which overlooked the quantity consumed in the Southern States. This, however, does in no r, unci diminish the resources of the Gonlederucy; on the contrary, it augments tho wtaith of the geople ct the •South, as 3,000,000 I ales will net more money lhau 4,500,00 u bules. the price ruling higher and expenses less. European as wen us aim u>.> statesmen, not being aware of the details of mer cantile affairs, committed an error in thinking tmit tbe war would at onoc create a cotton “pinch.” They not only made no allowance for the usual two years' supply over in stock, but lor tbe extra quantity, equal to an additional years’ wants. Auhougb the earth's p reductions that ure used lor food are rarely carried over the year ol their growth, in consequence ot the r perish able nature, all those commodities required for clothing are generally held in sufficient quantities for two year’s consumption. Asa Richmond cotemporary remarks, it is a sad comm ‘atary on the avarice and extortion of the times, and the more the shame for the peop e ot this Gonlederacy, that its currency isworih more in the C uted States ttan at the ‘doors of the Treasury Department that issues it at Rich mond. Gentlemen who traveled in the wake of Gen. Lee’s army both m Maryland and Pennsyl vania, fi demonstrated this humiliating feet to our sai.sluclion. They state that the i.snul cha ge among-he people for a dinner was one collar in Confederate currency, or half a dollar in Yankee currency; and “greenbacks” were available in large aud small amounts at one dol lar premium, or “ two for one,” as they cull it there, that being tbe undeviating standard. That cur people should contribute more to its depre ciatioc tliuu the common enemy, is one of tbe inexplicable wonders of tbe times. All the horses in Atlanta, and also in Mont gomery, Ala., have been impressed by the gov ernment.
