General Remarks.—The lightness in

MAraiiVs e«L, farts# gold Us advanced a
decidedly high figure. These movements
have produced but little effect on Coltok,
fife I
market- for »two»s l»efuro.cited, The re-'
ceiptß are free, out are not running as high
as anticipated by even conservative parties;
w 4 good portion of all tbe receipts att the
Soffttfenf porta way to this
market, where they are offered quite spar
i#gj?y rates. We mentioned last
Wedk/ tAe proposed action of the Chamber
of Commerce of this city in relation t<| the
potion tax., and urgad our friemdi to
pfetitioir Congress to repeat rh faw or
reduce tyte. We sttAe f d . our
objections tq tba-daW os JOeisg contrary to
the spirit our jn4ittt6oa|, unconstitu
tional, unwise, uo|u«| to the
interest of labor. .As wo deem the subject
J>f 30 mupb. interest, not only to the people
Jpf l*e fcut to the people at large, we
shall proceed to comi ler the subjectsome
what more fully, aiid endoavor t 6 answer
ine of the objections made against repea4-
ing tbo enactment. ' t *
It is urged that .the South shotild pay its
share or taxes, and that the Qovern&ent
can only £efc this share by taxing rfi w
Cotton ; and furthermore, that the profits
of Cotton Jjdsing at present prices arp so
•great!thd.ft roe fax of three cents per p>dund
xe#y small, and net at all a burthen.
In we■ will- not urge the Unconstitu
tionality of taxing ah Unrepresented por
tion of the republic, but will' grant 'that
♦be South should pay its share of taxation
equally with the North, East, and West,
but in justice Sve insist the four sections
should pay every one its share; and until
Congress repeal the act, or tax the cdreal
products of the Ignited States at least
thirty per oent. of their value before the
war, we claim that the West, and the
North, and the Bast, are *hot paying their
share.;- for it mast ho remembered that,
before the was 7c. was the average price
of Cotton at the Southern ports, say 10c.
in present .cnrrency, and if 3c. tax be de
rnanded, it is almost one third of the old
value, add one third -of what probably
wouldbe the price if the crop were not at
pr'eerhit a comparative failure, and corres
pondingly high in price; and i£ we argue
tax is light because the priqc is
thus abnormally high, we merely argue
that tho less a people have, the more they
should have to pay in the way of taxes—
an argument more deserving of pity than
- cmfihatically that
feting Sisjf tjpfel only way of
getting revenue fronl' the South; if the
profits of raising Cottan are as great as the
friends. of the lax assert there is an army
of Internal Revenue Assessors and Cullec
iors ready to tyk;c the Goverpment’s share
out of rtrh ineonie of ihe lucky plantef*.
Another argument used by tho friends of
the tax pyHfeifct England should bo made to
pay a portion "of the debt incurred in the
late war, and that she doe3 so by the impo
sition of the present tax. In reply, wo will
tyalye Ihu coudderatiou of the constitution
jjitjr of <witfeßjOn exports, and say nothing
about th’e propriety or dignity of enforcing
indirect claims, while certain direct ones
arc npt followed up with any especial vc
hemcico, but’ccrtiliuc ourtfblves to simple
facts*:as a thorgugh refutation is afforded.
To have Bnglam|hpay the tax, she must pay
the price regulated by demand and supply
plus three cents. Does any one who knows
anything of Cotton contend that Liverpool
advanced one penny sterling perpound when
(he tax took effect; not at all—their argument
was simple and decisive, as follows: *MVe want
American cotton, and will pay for it a price
entirely determined by the rate of our
demand and the supply from that country,
*from India, Egypt, Brazil, and the West
Indies. The greater the supply tho lower
the price; ond-the greater tho per centage
of tax America is imposing on herself, the
higher tbe premium offered by her for thfe
cultivation of the staple iu our East India
dependencies is.” This is certainly anew
way to pay old debts, and one hardly to be
considered satisfactory. While in this con
nection we wpolcl parenthetically remark
that button has" bsfeon and can again bo
raised at a profit t 6 the planter in India and
sold in Bombay at 3d. sterling a pound.
Another argument of the friends of the
tax is, that we must spin up our Cotton at
botne, for tbe -policy of this Government is
to afford protection against the cheap pro
ducts of the pauper labor of over-crowded
Europe. No stronger argument could be
used in favor of tbe repeal of the tax than
this. • If this be tho policy of the Govern
ment, let the agricultural industry of the
South bo protecied against the pauper labor
of India, afid pot be obliged to offer a
premium t 6 Indian laborers.
There are other points equally strong in
favor of the repeal of the law, which we
shall diyell udqji iq qur next circular.

Washington, Dec. 5—P. M.
The Star says:
■‘The Press Association of Washing
ton, embraelng/lhe five daily papers,
morning and evening, have decided-'to
take their telegraphic news from the
U. S. and European News Associa
tion-instead of from the York
Asgociated Pres, as theretofore. T.hey
are actuated in this coarse by the fact
that the first named Association has
demonstrated its ability to furnish news
more promptly, and in better shape
than the old Association, and have
evinced a disposition to correct griev
ances complained of by the Press out
side of New York, that the old Asso
ciation has nht displayed. A fur
ther cause for this action has leen
furnished in the rule adopted by
the Associated Press, by which the
use or acceptance, of nejys from any
:;other'aoilfee will eause expulsion of
tbe offending journal. > The rule so
Arbitrary, having for its object to com
pel the purchase of news at one particu
lar shop, instead of from the best in the
market, has been felt by the Press
everywhere as injurious to the news
paper business, and degrading in the
last degree to the newsEaper publishers
accepting it.
Xh4 truth is, that jtlie New York
Associated PreJs is an institution created
ahd worked to gather news for New
York, and not to disseminate news from
New York. It is an admirable institu
tion. for the New York papers, but a very
bad one for outside papers. The Craig
Association, on the contrary, lqpjcs for
its support to, and works for the interest
of, the newspaper Dress of the country
at large, and papers outside of New
York have what they had not in the old
concern —a voice iu its management.
The New York Commercial says:
“Newspapers do not exist for the Associ
ated Press, but the Associated Press for
papers. So long as the managers of the
association proved themselves able to
meet the daily increasing demand of
the press and the public for news, they
certainly could have had nothing to fear
from any rival body undertaking to do
the same thing, that already -in this city,
throughout the West, Philadelphia,
Baltimore, and Boston, the new orga
nization, of Mr. Craig, lias de
prived the Associated Press of far the
greater part of business. It would seem
to prove pretty conclusively, that the
latter body, is not, as-now conducted,
equal to the work it professes to do. For
our our own part, we think it due the
press and public, to state that upon sev
eral occasions, since the Associated
Press has passed under its present man
agement, it has entirely failed J.O supply
this journal with news. It was
under contract to furnish us. On these
occasdns, had it not been for faculties
offered us by Mr. Craig’s organization
we should have been absolutely de
prived of that supply of late and impor
tant news.
One of the leading morning journals
of this city has apparently suffered pre
cisely as we have done, and announces
in the issue of this day, its Intention of
taking the remedy in its own hands.
Every live newspaper in the country
must and necessarily will do the same
thing. Monopoly—the news which sup
presses. To monopolize is simply ridic
ulous—an impossibility, in this age and
country.’
Privale--To all Editors.
Mr. Craig has honored _me with the
duty of preparing dispatches for the
Southern press. He desires you to
communicate to me your wishes, and
directs mo to obey them in all possible
respects —avoiding epithets and specu
lation, and confining myself to an im
partial report of rivets. I will serve you
faithfully, aud if there is any honey in
thesitualionitwiil .be busily hived for
the gratification of the Southern people.
I have visited Mr. Craig’s olfice at New
York, and can assure you that the ma
chinery is perfect and success certain.
