HI* CHn Market—SlTrcl of Wtw. ft*** Ute Faitri State*. Wo we permitted to make the following extract from a private letter,- dated Rio de Janeiro, January 22d, by one of our most prominent importer# of coffee. It i* the very latest received, and from a most autliorat.vive 6<>ure»: On the 19th instant the French steamer from Bordeaux arrived, with dates to the 20th and 30th ult. from Europe, and t» the 12th and 13th idem from New York. From the latter place the accounts could not be more gloomy .itid dispiriting, while from Europe they were of a favorable tenor for coffee. The American advices would cer tainly have affected our market very seri ously under any other circumstances; hut our stock being so small, and the receipt.-, hitherto limited, dealers have hcen, and are, holding their lots very firmly, more particularly as they arc (juite aware that there are numerous vessels in port, char tered to take coffee, and that, ere long, they must he bought on the best terms that the market will afford. The business to be transacted will be chiefly for Europe; for, although there are some eight or ten vessels taken for the State®, it is question able that parties will buy for these, except prices decline here very considerably which we do not expect lor sometime.— Until the past eight days, the receipts of coffee from the interior had fallen off very sensibly, owing to tbe rain, general elec tions throughout the country and holidays. These interrupting causes have all ceased to operate against receipts arriving to mar ket; and should fine weather continue for another twelve or fifteen days, we are con fident that supplies will again become abundant, and then prices become reason able, or decline materially from present 3 flotations, provided the news from abroad ocs not come favorable for tLeir mainten ance. The stock to day is estimated at about 70,000 to 80,000 bags, chiefly com posed of inferior grades of coffee, and gen erally unsuitable, for the United States markets. So far, the clearances for the Slates, as well as to Europe, have been small, and for your port not a bag has gone, nor is there any vessel loading either for your or any other port in the States. The total shipped this month must neces- sarilly be small. The shipments of coffee from the 1st of January to the 22d. amounted to 45,344 bags, about half to New York, and the rest to Baltimore; Galveston and Mobile. X. O. Delta, 8//< inxt. — I— Correspondence of the London Times. Krrrption of (hr new* al staples. Naples, Feb. 14.—As soon as the uews was received in Naples, an enthusiasm, amounting to madness, took possession of the population. All were in the streets, from which every carriage was turned out. Coming, as the intelligence did, al out dusk, no preparations had been made for rejoicing, and it was curious to observe liow, a# when the Host is carried at night, an illumination was improvised on the mo ment. “Lurni, lump." shouted the crowds below, and every room was darkened, while wax lights, cartels, even common wicks with oil were snatched from the ta bles and hurried to the balconies. I saw men, in tbe estaev of their joy, holding great heavy chandeliers over a balcony. Guitars, and trumpets, and fiddles made their appearance at the windows, and amid shouts of “Garibaldi; Garibaldi!” “Cialdini!” and here and there a •‘Victor Emmanuel!” the ever popular “Hymn of Garibaldi” was played, the whole crowd below joining in the final. I never saw greater enthusiasm in Naples, and even the Piedmontese, who hitherto have been discontented with the Napolitians, were last night flattered and satisfied. Despite the vast crowds which were assembled, order was not in the slightest degree in terrupted. A few windows might have been broken where tbe cry for “Lumi, lu mp" was not immediately responded to, but nothing more. Torches blazed, oil works flickered, and the flags waved in every direction of the city until a late hour —rather too late ar. hour for some of your early-going folks; and all this on Ash Wednesday too. From the N. Y. Evening Post. tVhal shall be dour f*r a Retmor? There arc some difficulties attending the collec tion of *he revenue in the seceding States, which it will l<e well to look at attentively. That either the revenue from duties must be collected in the ports of the rebel States, or the ports must be closed to importation from abroad, is generally admitted. If neither of these things be done, our revenue laws are substantially re pealed; the sources which supply our treqyury w ill be dried up; we slrall have no money to carry on tfco government: the nation will be bankrupt be fore the next crop of corn is ripe. There will be nothing to furnish means of subsistence to the ar my; nothing to keep our navy afloat; nothing to pay the salaries of the officers; the pi esent order of things must come to a dead stop. Allow ratlroad iron to be entered at Savannah with the low doty of ten per ceut., which is all that the Southern Confederacy think of laying on imported goods, and not an ounce more w ould be imported at New York; the railways would be supplied from the Southern porta. Let cotton goods, let woollen fabrics, let tbe various manufactures of iron and steel be entered freely at Galveston, at the great port at the mouth of the Mississippi, at Mobile, at Savannah and at Charleston, and they would be immediately sent np tbe rivers and carried on the railways to tbe remotest parts of the Union. Nay, they would be sent directly from these ports by sea to Baltimore, Philadelphia. New York and Boston. Shop-keepers would be supplied with their silks and laces from tbe same quarter. The shoe-shops would be furnished with their assortments from the French stalls, and the hatters’-sbo is would be filled with the work of French artisans which have never paid a penny to the government. 'When these ana other kinds of merchandise were once in the country there would be no way to prevent their free circulation and saie in every part of the United States. The mighty Mississippi and its great tributaries, the long railways reaching from one extremity of the Union to the other, the ac tive fleet of merchant vessels employed in our coasting trade, would rapidly convey the untaxed merchandise to the most distant neighborhood of onr great domain. To protect the interests of the Federal Treasury something must be done. The general expectation seems to be that the duties will be collected on board of armed vessels at the different ports of en try in the seceding States. Are our readers aware what a fleet this would require? There are seven collect! «n districts in the little State of Flo rida aione; there are four in Alabama. At every port there must be a collector, with his army of ap praisers, clerks, examiners, inspectors, weighers, gaugers, measurers, and so forth; there must be a Naval Officer and bis staff of entry clerks The Morrill tariff law, which we. have just enacted, will make a larger number of all these necessary than would have been required a month ago. Where twenty men would Lava then answered the pur pose thirty will new be needed. If we collect tho revenue in this manner, with a fleet at every port mod a corps of cusloni-iiouse officers onbnnrd.it will cost us a great deal more than we shall get. But cau the revenue be thns collected? The im porters arriving at tbe Southern harbors will know bow to adereas tho custom bouse officers. “We have a cargo," they will naturally »ny. “on which we do not care to pay duties just at present; we must deposit it in the warehouses fur the term by which W3 are permitted to do so by law.” What w ill the officers of the customs do in that case?— The Government has no longer any warehouses iii the seeding ports. Tbe hold of an armed vessel would neither be a proper nor a sufficiently spa cious repository for the goods. Tbe duties in that case cannot be collected; and the collector will be E uzzled to know whether to let tbe ship proceed to er port or to detain her. We happen to know that there are importing houses at this moment preparing to take advan tages of this opening for an unencumbered trade. They are getting ready to convey their cargos to Charleston or Savannah; the goods will be landed there, and then brought coastwise to New York, where, beiug importations from a port within the Union, they »ill be subject to no duty. The new tariff, with its strange formalities and ingeniously devised delay s,forms an additional inducement with tlrcfn to take this course. What theu is left for onr government. Shall we let tbe seceding States repeal the revenue laws for the whole Union in this manner? Or will the government choose to consider all foreign com merce destined for those ports where we have no custom houses and no collectors, as contraband, and stop it, when offeriog to enter the collection districts from which our authorities have been ex pelled? Or will tb* President nail a special sea- °tCougreas to do wbat tbe last unwisely failed to do—to abolish all port# of entry in the se ceding States? - Extract from a Private Letter. tr«« Treat Pr*«*r*l*. * * * Yesterday C»l.

The Montgomery tariff was framed with care and skill, upon the model of that which will expire in the prevents us from giving the'whole of this import Northern States, on the 1st of April next.

We can sink them from McKee‘to a dead moral certainty.” Then, if they should get by McKee, they have to face our three tremendous sand batteries, besides the guns of Fort Boirancas. Fort McKee is a pretty strong place, about as much so, in rav opinion, as Fort Pickens, but Fort Barrancas is much weaker, and I is not, I think, tenable. | You ought to have seen Pugh and Bullock working fn the sand pits and roiling the wheel i barrows.

Where did they U*. We are told, in Kings x. 22. that Solomon had at«ea a navy of “Tarshish with the navy of Hi ram,” and that "once in three years came tbe na vy of Tarshish bringing gold and silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks." Where did this navy go? We have looked to the Bible expositors to find j what is to be understood by Tarshish, and we find that they have no knowledge oil the subject, but some men think that it meant the ocean in con- j tradistinction from the “great ocean,” as the 1 Mediterranean was called. We once beard a rev- | erend gentleman contend that tbe ships of Solomon j which were “fitted out at Eziongeber, on tbe shore of the Ked Sea, went down that Sea, felt their way along the coast of the Indies, China, etc., where they collected their ivory, apes, and peacocks, and then continued down the American coast to Cali fornia, which lie contended was the Ophir of 1 Scripture. The text from which this inference is 1 drawn reads as follows: “And King Solomon made a navy of ships, in Ezion-geber, which is be- I side Elntli on the shore of tho Ked Sea, and in the | land of Edom. And Hiiam sent in tho navy hi? i servants, shipinen float had knowledge of Ike sea. ' with the servants of Solomon. And they came to j * tpliir and fetched Trom thence gold, four hundred 1 and twenty talents; and brought it to King Solo in on It appears to have taken these ships three years to go to Ophir and return. If they really came to California, we should have some light thrown on tbe historyof our mound builders. We could then throw open a connection between the Jews and the extraordinary people who once inhabited the Valley of the Mississippi. It may be a little hard to believe that Hirain’s “sbipmen," with all their ‘ knowledge of the sea.” penetrated as far as California; but we are forced to believe something. '1 he evidences that our mound builders had some j connection with the Israelites are cumulative and almost beyond question. Where did Solomon’s ships go? Evidently not down the Mediterranean for they were built on the Ked Sea. Ophir must therefore have been on the eastern coast of Africa v> here we have no knowledge of any gold mines, or it must have been in Asia, or on tbe western coast of America. We shall not decide where it was, hut we throw out onr suggestion for the scrutiny of those who ai e learned in Biblical mat ters. Story of a Stray Child. Lute last Autumn, a farmer living near the Adi- rondacks. in New York State, went out to cut tim bers on the inountaius in a remote and solitary lo cality. lie took his son along with him, a little hoy of about four years of age. After having been employed for a short time, he missed the child, who had been amusing himself in chasing a kid which he found on a hill, and he became alarmed lest he should have fallen into one of the many ravines, or stumbled over some of the rocks or precipices with which the place abounds. No trace of the buy. however, could be found. In vain did he call upon Iris name, for no answer was returned. The anxiety of the father led him from place to place with the utmost rapidity, sometimes finding the print of his son’s little feet on the leaves, hut lie never dreamed of crossing a deep gorge which runs on the south side of tire locality alluded to down the steep and rocky side of tbe mountain to the maipin of the Hudson. Over this gorge he conceived it impossible for a child to make its way. In the evening be found means to send to tbe settlement an account of the circum stances, and several humane persons, accompanied by the distracted mother, came to aid his search for the poor child in this wild and rocky region. One of them happening to cross over the gorge alluded to, perceived there the impressiou of the boy’s footsteps, and these were occasionally traced all the way down to the margin of the Hudson, where they lost all tra<-e of the unfortunate little wanderer, and were filled with the most painful ap prehensions that be must have been carried off by tbe stream. Going along its batiks, and crossing ravines and steep*, which tiny conceived italmORt impossible the child could have passed and climb ed, they again found tho print of bis naked feet on the soft sand of a small rivulet; and by applying a measure which they had taken of the former im pression. they found it exactly to correspond. They were therefore iudneed still to go forward, thougli they had now proceeded upwards of four miles from the place of their settiug out: and they continued for the space of about another mile, ac companied by the anxious father and mother, those States, we have said, are produr era of nec essaries and consumers of manufactured produc tions. In time they will extend their production and consumption. “All their ports will he open to the commoree of the world, and if France knows how to profit by that favorable circumstance which facilitates the putting in practice of her new commercial policy inaugurated by the Emperor, her trade may, not withstanding distance, btcome a formidable com petitor with that of the Northern States; for her productions, always in demand in foreign markets will find, besides, iu the ditference of the manu facturing price, an advantage which, with the custom duties which will be undoubtedly, and liy way of reprisal, levied on merchandize coming trotn the Northern republic, will insure a consid erable market for French goods. ‘ The Southern Confederacy is, besides des tined to become a natural ally, capable, if need be of giving to Enrope, if circumstances should ever require it, a powerful aid in exchange for a simple recognition, which will very probably keep the fanaticism of the North in check, and preserve from almost certain destruction the Southern marts, which Europe could not do with out just now. “VVu are no longer in an age, thank God. when it was made a boast of having been said from the tribune, ‘Perish the Colonies, rather than a principle.’” /,« Pays then proceeds to show why Europe cannot do without Southern Cotton, and that France onght to seize this opportunity of extend ing its commercial relations with th<* new Con federacy. Not satisfied with this, it takes up the reneral subject of American slavery, and, lor the first time, an infiuental organ of Europe thus boldly espouses the cause of the Southern States, and intelligently, nobly, and eloquently vindi cates the gallant and generous and much abused people of the Southern tStates. ltst.s; “But in awaiting these results, which would How from the cordial welcome given by Europe to the new Confederation, let true philanthropists be assured they are wonderfully mistaken in regard to the real condition or the blacks of the S'-utb. We willingly admit that their error D pardonable, for they have learned the relations of master and slave only from the work of Mrs. Beecher Stowe Shai! we look for that condition in the lucubra- ions of that romance, raised to the importance ot a philosophic, disseitatiun, hut much rather in spired, unconsriously to tho author, by the d sire of leading public opinion rstrny, of provoking revolution and of necessitating incendiarism and revolution? A romance is a work of fancy which one cannot refute, and which cannot serve as a basis to any argument. In onr discussion we must seek elsewdiere for authorities and material Facts are eloquent, and statistics teach us that, under the superintendence of those masters, so cruel and so terrible, if we are to believe Mrs. Stowe, the black population of the South increas cs regularly inagreate proportion than the white; while in the Antilles, in Africa, and especially in these very philanthropic States of the North, the black race decreases in a deplorable proportion How could Mrs. Beve.her Stowe reconcile this fact with her extraordinary assertions? The condi tion of those blacks is assuredly better than that of tho agricultural laborers in many parts of Eu rope. Their morality is far superior to that of free negroes of the North; the planters encourage marriage, and thus endeavor to developo among them a sense of the family relation, with the view of attaching them to the domestic hearth, consequently to tbe family of the master. It will be then observed, that in such a state of things the interest of the planter, in default of any oth er motive, promotes the advancement and well be ing of the slave. Certainly, we believe it possi ble still to ameliorate their condiiion; It is with that view, even, that the South has labored for so long a time to prepare them for a higher civiliza tion. “In no part, perhaps, of the continent, regard being had to the population, ifo there exist men more eminent and gifted, with nobler or more gen erous sentiments, than in the Southern States? No country possesses lovlier, kinder hearted, and more distinguished women. To commence with the immortal Washington, the list of statesmen who have taken partin the Government of the United States, shows that all those who have shed a lustre on the country, and w on the admiration of Enrope, owed their being to that much abused South. “Is it true that so much distinction, talent, and grandenrof soul, ccnld have sprung from all the vices, from the cruelty and corruption which one would fain attribute now to the Southern people? The laws of inflexible logic refute these false im putations. And—strange coincidence — while Southern men presided over the destinies ot the Union, its gigantic prosperity was the astonish ment of tlis world. Iii the hands of Northern men that edifice, raised with so much care and labor by their predecessors, conies clashing down, threat ening to carry with it, in it* fall, the industrial fn- th'cut finding any further traces of the boy.' tnre of every other nation.

At this time one of the parly, who had been before the rest, on look ing into the stream of the Hudson, found a hand kerchief round a stono in the channel of the river, which he recognized to be that of the child, and had now little doubt that he would be found wards emancipation. Its people have been com pelled to close their ears to ideas which threaten ed their very existence. “Let trie independence of the South he recog nized—that servile insurrection openly and bold ly preached in the pnlpita of tbe North may cease to be an ever-present danger.

It? intent was to double t!;e rates of duty Uitherto imposed, and, thereby, to increase the reven ue, and the patronage of a republican administration.

Even were there no extraneous diffi culties. the incongruities and contradictions of the new tariff would render its operation ineffectual, and call for its repeal before any great lapse of time.

A dpH or shallow person looks only «t appearances, h-arns a certain routine, and never dreams ot pem-tmting to the core and meaning of the matter. Hie now and then come along n clenr sighted one who looks directly t!trough tbe glimmering surface “I the world, asthruugli the crystal of a watch, tothe pointer gud figures of the dial, even to the delicate wheel work beneath. In war such a man is a Napo loon, w ho surprise- generals and all history by his new swift methods of blowing fheofd chaff of military tac tion to the wind. In philosophy lie is a Plato, who, in the dawn of science, constructs a theory of nature aud thought that comprises or suggests all the great ideas and intelle-ctunl discoveries of long centuries to come In literature, he is a Shakespeare, whose genius breaks from the barsoi rhetorical strictueHS, like a young lion from his cage, and roams through wild, deep forests of human nature and poetry. Iu theology, lie is some reformer, who perceives that tin- traditional religion has become a life! ss, corrupt thing, a budy without s 'll!, aud who prechiinis the necessity of cveiy ago and of e very lientt, leaving tin- dry field of creeds and dogmas, and goimj back to the original Fountain of Life, of which it ouc drinks lie shall never thirst again. Fortunately, insight is not confined to such rure in stances. But, as in great things, so in small; a man can never' be or do anything worth mentioning without this faculty. _ There is the mechanical iusight, which constructs within this world of natural powers, uiiuthcr World of artificial powers scarcely less wouderfnl.— There is the mercantile insight, which sees through the shifting loam of probability aud chance iuto the clear current, of profit and loss whore the deep keels of traffic glide. There is the iu-igut of tin- statesman, who look* through all Fourth of July smoke into the merits and demerits, the danger aud destiny of his country. The insight of the house keeper, who, with small mean.-, manages her household, driving want away and calling comfort in, w ith an ingenuity that to the unthrifty appears little short of miraculous. Whoever you are, whatever you do, cultivate this faculty. In business, learn tosee with sure, calm eyes, far and clear. In morals, learn to detect the shams of policy and expediency, and dive down iuto the truth which teaches that Integrity is flu- lienltli of the soul, and that your highest welfare consists iu doing to others ns you would have others do to yon. In man ners and society, learn lout hearts are better than silk and broa.feloatli; that charitv is more polite than etiquette: that something beside the joining of hand? and worldly interests am necessary to male a train marriage : that something beside blood relation makesuf men and women brothers and sisters; that iove and troth nre at the heart of everything happy and good; and that even-net of falsehood and injus tice is but a step forward upon the flowery ernst of a concealed volcano, which may at .any time time open beneath your fret, and surely will engulf you at lust, nnlcss every step is carefully and painfully retraced ‘‘Groans of tbe Briton*.” The New York Comnietcial Advertiser groans horribly over the surrender of Fort Sumter, thus; “Then the Southern Confederacy will have un disputed possession of the cost and the cost forti fications l'roui Brownsville up to Cape Fear, by far the larger purlieu of our gulf aud Atlantic coast To suppose that this cau over he retaken hy force is absurd, in view of our inability to retain Fort Sumter.

Like the locusts of Egypt, they penetrate to the very recess of privacy, and the departments arc overrun with them. But it is not the indecent haste, which is. after all, the groat thing to he regretted. It is the tact that such a state of affair* exists at all. It is the de moralization it must produce among the people. The w icked and detestable motto that to “the vic tors belong tb-‘ spoils,” has given rise to the doc trine of rotation iu office, aud it is this which stimulates party spirit, engenders corruption and gives occasion for more of the disreputable acts in all parties thau any other or all otinr causes combined. There nre about GO,<MK> officers in the gift of the general government in the nurdiern States. Now, it is fair to presume that there are, upon an aver age fivefexpcctants to every office This makes an army of JiMl.DuU officers seekers, pushing, pulling and contending for the fl.-sh port of executive fa vor. Not a country town is free from tills fever. A rural post office worth twenty five dollars per year, is often the subject of as vigorous a dispute as the (Jollectorship of the port u! New York ! In deed, ivc know oi'one case where a country post office, which was an actual dumag'- to nny man who hud it, set a whole tie.ghborhood by tbe ears It cannot be denied that this prospect of a change of officials at every olectinn, is fast cor rupting aud demoralizing northern society. It is not carried to the saute extent in the South, indeed itis a doctrine that southern men have generally protested against. It may be mentioned as a re markable and iiote-worltiy fact, that there has been but two Post masters, aud three Collectors in the city ot Charleston, since (Jen. Washington’s administration: The present postmaster has had but one predecessor, an i the Collector only two. But in the North, how different! Here politics is one grand struggle for office. The peojdo seem to so regard it, and are losing all idea that elections are held to advance certain principles or to fix the policy of the government. It is a grand and mighty struggle for the spoils. Hence corruption stalks abroad at noon-day. Voters are brought up like sheep in the shambles, ami the lucky candi date is he who has the lougest and deepest purse. These are not fancy pictures. Nor aro they in tended any more for one party than the other. They ate none tbe less painful features, however; none tile less to be deplored. It is said that the Confederate States intend to positively prohibit removals from subordinate offices fori political reasons, lf this be so, we are free to say that this reform of itselt is worth a small Revolution. Noth ing exert a more baneful iufluenc-- upon society in all respects, than thin feverish thirst for office. It givos birth to a race of hungry cormorants, who go to woi k wiih simply the desire to oust those iu of fice. Ile-ice, principles are lost sight ot, and ev ery dishonorable expedient is resorted to accom plish their purpose. Thousands forsak- the ordi nary avocations of honest industry in order to join ill tlii* scramble for office Of course, thousands are disappointed, and having lost ’.lie habits of in dustry, they become outcasts and vagabonds, worthless to themselves and useless to society. In nine cases out often, even if they succeed in getting office, it is a positive damage to them for it may be set down .-is a general rule that there are .few meu in cilice who ev-r make anything hy it. The business is not of that kind to beget a spirit of accumulation; it rather tends to free-and- aud easy living and often leads lo downright dissi pation. It is, however, for its deplorable effects upon society at large, and especial upon the purity of our political system, this insane idea of rotation in office ought to he abolished at once and forev er. Why should the government inquire what fho opinion of a man are, provided he behaves himself and performs his duties honestly aud cor rectly. “Is lie honest., is he faithful ?” were the Jotl'ersouiaii qualifications, and tin se ought to be only questions asked now. We do not present these ideas now because we expect the “Republi cans'' to act upon them. The Democratic party has not done so, and wo cannot expect its oppo nent* to act more geueronsy. lint we do insist that this is a reform that good men should take into consideration. Let it be inaugrated in every new movement. Let ns see which party will have the patriotism to initiate it. If our elections could be decided without the seltish con siderations of the “loave* and fishes” to influ ence voters, we should soon see a manifest change in political affairs for the better. The bitterness of party spirit would be mitigated, nntl questions decided upon their merits. The people ought to be appealed to as jury without any seili.-h cause* to influence their decision, and in this way we should oftener get a just aud fair oue, for there would ex ist uo temptation to deceive them, lt would en force a higher tone into political affairs, and, inev- ery respect, produce a most desirable retorm. If something of this Lind bo not done, we shall all degenerate into a selfish, demoralized race of of fice-seekers, and, ere long, our degradation will be as conplete as Rome, in her last days, when the imperial purple was put to the highest bidder. Republican Eicgislntion—lilfecls Already Apparent! Tbe following article is from the New York Times (a very decided Republican paper j of the l’dib inst. The Republican controlled the late Congress after the secession ot a number of Southern States. Mark what the New York Tiuus now says : 1. The late Congress passed all tho appropria tion, bills, authorized ioans to the amount of $25,- 000,000, iu additiou to the ordinary revenue, and did everything that tbe Republicans asked for to carry their administration through the summer and fall. 2. They passod a new Tariff bill, increasing tho of secession. Ia any ordinary eitcu anal*trees such loss of revenae might be submitted to, boequee the east of collecting it woald pretty fairly exhaust the gross product. But ike new and injwBf ioa* Tariff fastened upon us by the Thirty sixth Ctstgetss nukrs the affair a very murk more actions one; for its largely augmented rates offered an irresistible j invitation to importers to introduce their merrkaa- 1 due at Southern rather than at northern ports, i where they may either be sold or carried overland i to tbe Northern consumers. The effect, of this phr-1 fectly feasible and legal proceeding woirhl be to ! built! up the rebel States ot tbe Union at tho ex- penso of the loyal; to cripple thsforeigu trade of the Sot them rities, and lease the treasury at ITaslnng- loa in a far less satisfactory condition than if the late Tariff hod been undisturbed. In the absence, therefore; of further legislation, the duty of tbe Resident is plainly dictated by these considerations. It will be no longer ft* sib I? to refrain from collecting the revenues, and pre- ventig evasions of tho revenue laws a'oug the long aDd tortuous stretch of coast extending from South Carolina tothe Rio Grande. Each harbor must have its attendant frigato, and its floating warehouses, armed and manned to resist the as saults of an enraged and implacable people. The last Congress failed to invest th* President with powers requisite for this formidable task. He may well decline to attempt without the fullest warrant of the Legislative Department that duty, which even Jackson shrunk from until supported by the special authority of a force-bill, attended with an offer of concessions to the insurgents. And wo tnustfffot forget that Jackson had only to contend with a single and inconspicuous State, possessing a trifling sea-board, while the coast line of an em pire is to be blockaded hy the shipping of the present day. Or if, appalled at the magnitude of the undertaking, the President be disposed to con sider some method of escape, the aid ofCongress would be instantly necessary. Not a moment could be lost in restoring the tariff of l>ff57. and porhaps in falling even below that standard Equal energy and promptitude would be deman ded in fringing the frontier dividing the Union from the Contederation with Custom houses to collect revenue upon products passing northward from tbe latter. In any event, therefore, Government will find it difficult to proceed without legislative assistance. If it desist from collecting the revenues, it will be likely to transfer so much of the foreign trade of the North to the South as to render the exalted rates of the new tariff unproductive of increased returns. If it presist in collecting them, it must also be prepared for the contingency of a collision with the Area tors—a preparation which needs leg islative authority. For these reasons we may ex pect at a very early day the summons of an extra session. SPECIAL NOTICES. ThoiMtude a*« dailyffpeaking in tbp praiae of DK.

Iu fact, if it bo conceded, as it apparently is about to be, that secession and revolution must not be suppressed by force, but may be rewarded with the undis puted possession of whatever public property is located upon the seceders’ territory, it is impossi ble to say how far dismemberment and subdi vision may go in less than a decade of years In view of all the facts of the case, we have a recommendation to make to the President, if he should finally determine to surrender Fort Smnter to the revolutionists, lt is, that immediately upon doing so he call an extra session of Von- jjress, that measures may be promptly taken to call a convention of the people for the purpose of acknowledging the independence of the “Con federate States of North America,” be they seven, ten cr fifteen, so that a perpetual end may be put to the disturbance* to which tbe country has so long been subjected. And we would further i evommend that such convention be instructed to niake such amendment* to the Constitution as sliali either distinctly aud openly recognize the right of secessfon, or shaft make provision for its suppressions when attempted, clothe the Execn th e with power to carry such provisicu iuto eftcct, and make it a penal offense not to use it. We have no hesitation in saying that the recogniion of the Southern Uontederacy sbonid not be delayed a day longer than can be beJoed. after once Fort Sumter is suirendered to it.
