J on Don, May 18. 1861.
This country is alarmed for the first
'ime since the. American war opened.—
I here is this week a feeling of alami and
anxiety, and tiiis feeling has given rise to
plans that are of great interest tu the
American government.
'1 he Queen’s proclamation has been
issued, and in entile good faith all loyal |
objects of ber Majesty are enjoined not
0 join either of the belligerents, and they
are assured if they do so tlieir government
will not inteilete in their Lthalf in the
event of their vessels being captured ot
lirmselves made prisoners. M> far so
good.
Now for tlie alarm: If tire war is pro-
racted even a twelvemonth, and the ctop
• >f cotton put in jeopardy or gieatly cut-
ailed, theie will bewailing in Lancashire
Several Englishmen of posit on have told
me that they believed ir the supply w-as
• tie million bales short of the average it
would produce such distiess and lead D
-uch a convulsion in Manchester that tin
very existence of the liiitish Einpiie tun
1 lie throne itself would be in danger.—
l his is piobably an exaggeration, l ut n
-cant supply of cotton w ill make a financial
ciisis, anu a petiod of distress and statva-
ion that would tequitea vast government
aid, or theie would Le an iiisunection or a
i evolution.
To avert that, this government are go
ingto do every thing possible to throw ob
stacles in the way ol I'resident Lincoln; it.
tlier words, to force your government t<
-top hostilities. Y ou liave seen the papeis
nete up to this time, anil bow tin y hav«
«ii*alt in “bosh” and wenk aigun.ents
.'gainst “coercion,” and iu fact encouiagei;
be Miuih in their rebellion.
You may be perfectly certain that Great
Britain w ill fallow up thiwi'inclaiuatioii am
the discussions in I’ailiament by every
possible species of inteileicnce, and ii
nothing el.-e will suffice, find a pretext to
declare war against the United Mates to
mice them to abandon tlieir piesent ground
and acknowledge tiie independence of the
c-outb. Gotten must be bad at all buzzards.
And in the desite to sustain the South,
and to bleak the Union, this government
will be seconded by France, who bums to
obtain some foothold and interest in Noith
Ameticaand the West indies.
Schemes are now on foot to get financial
aid to the South, though with veiy slim
prospects of success, i believe tin

From the New Orleans Picayune
Soulitfrn Crops und Provision*.
The accounts nfihe condition and pros
pects of tiie cotton, corn, wheat and othei
crops, from all parts <-f the Gonfedeiate
Mates and those which are rapidly pre
paring to unite their fortunes with outs h\
becoming members of the distinguished and
prosperous Southern family of Confederate
sovereign States, are of the most cheering
and assuring character.
From all points in the cotton growing
region, wc have glowing reports of the
growing crop of our great staple. In
some localities the heavy tains have some
what injured the crop, but evert there the
injury is not irremediable, and where ie
planting has been neces'sat y, the woik has
been energetically uiidertak*-n,' and ac
comphshed without delay. From ail we
can gather in regard to the grow it g ctop,
we teel confident that with a favorable
season henceforth until it is gathered, the
cotton crop of 1861 will be as laige, oi
neatly so, as that of last year, wliile in
quality, the increasing cate in the choice
of seed, and the continual improvements
in preparing the staple for matket, assnte
the consumer that it will be fully
equal, if not supeiior, to any of its piede-
c* s ois.
Of corn, flte accounts from every part of
the South are. piegnant with piomiseofbj
far the largest ctop ever garnered. r J he
reports of the condition and prospects ol
the w heat crop are also of the most cheer
ing character. So also of all other crops
including fruit, of w hich theie is proinse
of unequalled abundance.
From all paitsof the sugar growing re
gion of Louisiana, we have very good ac
counts of the growing cane, and with a
favorable season until sugar-making time,
there is reason to anticipate that the x ielft
the present j ear w ill be large, and so tar to
compensate tlie plantets lor the deficien
cies of the last two years.
Favored by a kind Providence, the
South can afford to laugh at the insane
threats of the Northern fanatics, that they
I will starve us into submission. They
j cannot obstruct our cotton on its way to
maiket. All Europe is interested deeply
| in the matter ot an unobsti ucted supply of
! the gieat Southern staple, especially Gieat
j Britain aud France. ’J he stoppage ot the
i supply would soon cause gieat distress
I and suffering among the operatives in the
j British factories, and consequent riots and
i tumults of an alarming chaiacter, w hile it
would reduce many manufacturers to tiie
i vetge of ruin, paraly ze commerce general-
; ly, and probably lead to revolutions and
: scenes of anarchy aud bloodshed dreadful
to think upon. Biitish statesmen know
the peril, and are not blind to the proba
ble consequences, and we teel assured that
they will avert the danger by energetic
measures witbont delay. In the present
disturbed state of Europe, and with the
prospect of a general war. British state-
men have additional pressing inducements
to remove all obstructions to the free sup-
tions of Geoigia and the < arolinas, and the

millions to the bout hern Contedeiai-y.it
by so doing they could see their way cleai

future national greatness! A respectable
nation, certainly, hut not the one that
could grow up between the great lakes and
the Gulf Mexico. Six months will cer

as well believe it. If you have virtual!}

if }ou have not, then you will find new

Yon may say their publicly avowed posi

much opposed to war, and mere vvar bur
dens, that it would he impossible to get up
a war, particulaily with America, without
a show of a cause, and that pietext cannot
be found immediately.
But let some Biitish sailors be found
privateering and hanged, let a blundering
English skipper try to run a blockade and
get captuied, or let a British Admital, ap-

bare-faced false plea that it was done for
