C'., Sept, 4, 1801, Bear KxrnxHi :—All the circulars which 1 have seen, both from Governor* and Society/, in relation to clothing for the army, call fal*Vool instead of cotton socks for our soldier*, an units- I jntional error, which I wish to porrecL Cotton socks are decidedly warmer, cheaper, and more durable than wool. Cotton is cheap and ebon dent; wool is scarce, dear, and should be appro priated to clothing and blankets for the army.— Woolen sticks are warmest when first put on, but they soon excite an unnatural amount of perspi ration, which cannot be evaporated by animal heat, aud therefore soon becomes saturated and cold. Cotton ones invite a uniform and contin ued glow, and no more moisture than they can absorb while clean. The truth and philosipby of this will be manliest to those in the habit of wear ing India Rubber shoes, which create undue warmth, and prevent the escape of mofatare. I am subject to cold feet in winter, and for many years have given both kinds of socks an impar tial trial, and shall send cotton socks to my sons in the army, although we have three years clip ping of wool. To those who will not he con vinced, 1 would respectfully suggest that they have the yarn mixed with equal parts of both ma'enal in carding, or a strand of each, as such wil| be more durable and lesss subject to sweat. To keep the soldiers’ feet warm and prevent them from tokirig oold, they should change their socks three limes per week; bathe their feet and neck* in cold water every morning, and their feet should be bathed again or rubbed with snow just before standing guard. MACON. [Correepondence of the Petersburg /.'•pres*. Tbe Borrowing IjUtse #f tbe Imud Slitu Commmbl. Tbe London Times say* the course pursued at Washington throws into tbe i hade all the bor rowing of Krigland. After stating at length tbo financial scheme of the United States Govern ment, it says We entreat the reader to observe for a moment what this Implies. Much a course throws all our borrowing into the shade, fn all the nine year* of tbe American war, from 1774 to 1783, we only borrowed £ 104,000,000. in the twenty-two years of the great Revolutionary war, we averaged less than £30,000,000 a year, and in the tremendous year JHUWU, the loan was hut £30,000,00 . Hat this is only half tbe bat le. The burden of tho loan depends not so much on tho amount of principal as on tho rate of interest. Wo burrow rowed our money, even in 1813, at a little above 4per Cent, ami in 1860 at a little above 3 per cent. The American*, however, began by an of fer of 7 per cent, and are at this moment com pelled to pay 10 or 12 per cent* We find, there fore, that while £00,000,000 annually would be added to their national debt, £600,000 annually would he added to tbo charge of that debt, so that four years and three quarter* of their pres ent expenditure would saddle them with a bur den equal to that which wo have incurred iu a century and a half. Mr. Gladstone has to pro vide some £28,000,u00 to Satisfy the public credi tors of Great Britain, in the year 1360, if tho American war should be protracted so long, Mr. Chwso’* successor will have to provide rather more than that sum for tho creditor* of the Union. The Defense of the Coast.- While Gen eral Ripley is mounting his Columbiad* and Dahl grens, Coi. Trapier f* making “masked batteries'’ for tho reception of the valiant Butler ; Colonel llateh is getting the riflemen ready to salute the new comers, as they navigate the creeks and in lots on their way to Charleston. Judging from tho energy displayed by those who have the mat ter in hand, every bush and sand hill will he a “masked battery” on a small scale, with soma of tbe sharp young riflemen in wailing. Vh. Mer enzy. Gov. Brown. After un absence of some twen ly days, llis L'xoellenev, the Governor, reached this city, where his “Headquarter.-.” have for some time been temporarily located, on Wednes day evening last. During his absence ho bus visited on I sea coast, and made effective inillta ry arrangements for its defense, and the protec tion of the property of our citizens in that sec tion of tho State. Returning, lie passed a day or two at the capital of the ntate, and eti rout* to Atlanta, ho paid a visit to “Camp Stephens” near Griffin, looking to tho condition and emu fort of the volunteers encamped at that place. Atlanta Intelliytncer 20th. I"iik Traitor Consul,—The Government has its eye upon Robert CL Scott, tho Consul at Uio Janeiro, who sold American Commerce to the Hatleras pirates. He stayed after he was removed in order to continue to give them his infamous aid, but is now ou his way home.— A dungeon will probably receive him.—A>rc )orl Tribune.

We learn that the Government ha*, within the past tew day*, shipped no less than 28 colutu biada to New Orleans to be applided to Its coast del, m e*.

A.NornKR Skirmish.—We learn from a mem ber of Captain McPherson’s company stationed on Choctawhatohec Bay, that on last Saturday night the picket guard descried a small party approaching thorn in a launch When in a pro per distance, tile guard hailed them, but receiv ing no answer, fired at them, when tho fire was returned then ensued a general skirmish, one of the picket guard* receiving several bullet* in hi* coat and one In his hat.

He claim, to have killed i Gen. Lvon. lie say* he shot a uiau in the breast that wa* on a large grey horse, and was waving his hat, and he saw him tall. Thus it if probable that the Abolition Lyon fell by tbe hands of a darkey. This same black man finding hi* youngest mas ter, Benj.

Lincoln's Force on the Minis*ipm. The .Memphis Appeal of the 20th, says : From the information which we have received from various sources, we judge that the available forces up the river, are distributed a* follows; At St. Louis, 16.000 ; Cane Girardeau, Cairo and Bird * Point. 12.000; Old Fort JrQernou .(nine miles above Columbus.) about 10,000; Paducah. 10,000 Louisville, 6,000. At Jefftrtoa City, Mo., there are probably also about 4,000 Thu’ is a sum to tal of fifty-six thousand, which, we think. i Sot far from a true estimate KlMClil Pil'd!, We extract the following spirited paragraphs from the Louisville Courier of Tuesday “We presume there is not a Kentuckian, not tlmi* enough to be a (Gave, who is not getting bis arms Yu readme** for the rapidly approaching conflict. And when Kentuckian* bear their red right arm in battle, their enemies may well call upon the hill* and the mountains to fall upon and cover them from their vengeance and fury.” “Kentucky refused to fight the Bomb when called on by Lincoln Secretary of War. She will alao refuse to fight her now, when called upon by the Union (?) Legislature. When the Legislature require* Gov.

We would fiecj ly transier them to our columns, but do not desire to blow the ttuinpet for our good old mother, whose words speak for her without a word from any of her son*. She lias seventy thousand troops jiow in the held, and every house within her borders is the soldier's home. At some future time, we may set forth what the State of Virginia has done in the way of preparation for this war, and we think that when the facts and figures come u> be known, it will be admitted that no Btate of ancient or modern days, having the same disadvantage* to contend against, ever achieved as much in the tame space of time as Virginia, from the moment when Lincoln's purpose of over throw ing the Constitution became manifest. Bhe was slow of vision to detect that purpose; but once discerned, her attitude has been most dis interested, energetic, and even sublime. We rejoice to see that throughout the entire South this i* the universal sentiment towards the glorious Old Dominion. —Richmond Di p. Hun. Jkxhk D. Brio hi. This gentleman, ex .

Mr. Bright, after acknowledg ing that the letter in question i* a genuine one, Bays further Y’ou say the impression i* sought to bo creat ed, on account of this letter, that I am in com plicity with tbo Houtheru rebellion. I have so little regard— indeed, such utter contempt for abolitionism, which is seeking, l<y every means iu it* power, to “crush out” every man who dare* to dissent from the policy It presci die*, that it it were merely to satisfy the corrupt par tizari* of that doctrine, I would not take the trouble ol denying, or attempting to counteract this impression. But for your sake, and tbe sake ofsucb old, tried friends us you, 1 think it due to my*eif to say that I am and alway* have been far preserving tbe integrity of this Union I wn* laboring -/oaloady for it* pre*crvatlon when those men, wh* are now so clamorous for it* maintenance, were willing to “let it slide,” rath er than ul>ut one iota of their unconstitutional doctrine of inequality ; und no mun regrets more than 1 the present condition of public affairs, or is more anxious lo see peace, unity and fraterni ty restore !. Ido not heiitve tbe policy of this administration is calculated to produce iurb re . ult*, so far from if, tho inevitable tendency of it* measure* i*. in my opinion, to render the dis ruption pei in snout and incurable.

Traitor* un tiie Coast—We saw und con versed with a gentleman on .Saturday, direct from Hyde county, who informs us that the Federal reports of numbers of Hankers, (a lo cal name for the residents on the banks,) tak ing the oath to support Lincoln’s government is too true. He assures us that the rest will soon do it, including six out of every ten ol the citizens ol Hyde comity, in self defence, if assistance is not speedily sent to their relief This is a shameful state of things. The sea const was the only portion of our State upon which the Feds’ could posibly in trude, and yet that portion is permitted to go unprotected, and niter the enemy has got pos session of the most important inlet, two weeks are permitted to pass and still no axsietunce to the people of Hyde county, one of tho most important counties ofthe Btate has been sent, if the same slow motioned inactive course is to be pursued for two weeks to come, in ail probability it will be impoetidla far our troops to enter the county at all.

Gov. Brown was elected Gov. twice under tbe old Constitution f the Bute and while the State was one ofthe old United States.

The logical sequence from these premises would Ihj that uni ic man should be elected Gov ernor.

The spir ited lady rejoined that Jeff'. Davis would soon be there, and would make him pay it. Whereupon he forthwith arrested her upon the charge of trail 'll.
