HOUGHTON, NISBET & BARNES. I ^ ill our brethren of the press give this no tire a few insertions ? The Rr.alt, From official and unofficial returns we are sat- i>fied that Gov. Brown is re-elected for the third arm by a large majority. The official returns c mie in slowly. Wo publish them as far as received, and will continue to do so, until the List is completed. To ('«rrcs(iou<!ciit«. We have s*veral communications in relation to the Governor s election that have cotne to hand since (lie election. As they were all in favor of Gov. Biowd, and ns it is now certain that I10 is eiectid. we do not think it necessary to publish :i i m. We have one interesting letter from our v utileers ia A irginia which shall appear in out n?xt. Tlic Prrs« nml Cor. Brawn. He lore the election, 1 lie opponents of Governor Brown boasted that the press, with a few excep- t oris, were opposed to Gov. Brown, and gave that as a good indication, that Gov. Brown would !»• deb ated. They claimed ‘21 papers for Judge N.sbet. and gave Gov. Brown five or six. The re st::: not only shows that the five or six for Gov. brown have the largest censtitnsncy, but it shows, even in the large cities, where Governor Brown had no friendly papt r to advocate bis cause, that bis opponent bad but small majorities. *aJ in one city, Columbus, Governor Brown dis tauced his opponent. So much for the vaunted influence of the Press. The people were ahead of the press, in the late election, and have ad ministered a rebuke to their zeal, which is no diubt fully appreciated by all interested. The I'x|f«»riation of t'otfon. We copy in another coinniu, .... article from the Charleston Mercury, which fully expresses our own opinions, as to the policy of exporting cotton while the blockade lasts. Lincoln will readily permit English and French ships to come after the cotton if we will only agree to let them have it. To appease these two nations, and remove the necessity for raising the blockade, Lincoln's government will consent . vessels into all our ports. But o know whether cotton is really king or not. If England and France must have cotton they will break the blockade and get it. If they cin do without it, then cotton is not king, and the sooner our government and people learn the fact, and begin to depend on theirother resources, and own strong arms, the better for us all. To allow the cot:on to he shipped while the blockade lasts j would do our cause groat injury and retard tin- peaceful settlement of oar difficulties. The gov ermr.ent can contrive a way to furnish the planter with a currency to pay his debts and buy what he needs, if the people will receive it. But more about this feature of the subject, hereafter. We hope onr planters will keep their cotton at home for the present. Uratli of I.lent. I&t-nry Trippe. The remains of Lieut. Ilenry Trippe of the 2nd I! giineni of Georgia Regulars, reached here on Wednesday last and were escorted to the grave by the Baldwin Blues Jr. and a large number of f :snds. Lieut. Trippe died in Virginia of disease incurred on duty with his regiment. Cut down iu the (lower of youth and in the midst of use- f 1 .less to his country, his death is to be deplored »• a public loss. Like many other gallant Geor gia boys, he has fallen at his post, and his name dserves to bo treasured by the side of the gallant deal who have fallen fighting fo. their country and liberty. Lieut. Trippe formerly resided at Fort V alley, Oa. Hi* Darents reside at Midway, and we deeply sympathize with them in their great bereavement. He was a young man, and a phy sician by profession. Tlic way of the Trcinsresior is liaril. The Savannah Republican feels bad. But we fear it is net so much on account of any sincere repentance for the evil which he attempted to do, as because he did not succeed to any great extent. We come to this conclusion because he never made any explanation until after the election about that infamous letter signed Joe Brown, and evidently calculated, if not intended, to make honest men believe that Gov. Brown had with drawn his name from the contest. It is too late now that the election is over, to pretend that h» did not intend to deceive the people. Sev- eal men in adjoining counties either came or sent to Milledgevil.e, to know if Gov. Brown had with drawn his name, giving as a reason for making the enquiry, that they had been told that he had Pluhshed a card in the Savinnah Republican to that effect. These meu did not read the Republi can themselves and did not know it3 char a ter, and therefore should not be called fools for believing any thing found in that paper. Because we exposed this miserable trick, the Re publican aocuses us of slandering him. Slander indeed' Why it would be impossible lor us to intent anything one half as severe agaiust him as to tell the plum truth. That is severe enough in a conscience. The Republican has for a long tune been afflicted with the Broicn-phobia, and w efear that the crushing rebuke given him by the P"Opli-of Georgia, will not improve his condition- An Important Prophecy. The Savannah Republican of the 5th inst, says: I he reasons that elevated Gov. Brown to a tnird term will be strengthened two years to come, •til continue to increase in cogency until the Alnnghtv shall think proper to remove him from terrestrial affairs.” T* e put this prophecy on record for future use, f r we consider it an admission on the part of the Republican, that Gov. Brown will make a better Executive for the next two years, than ever be- ” p ,snd also that lie will continue to get better ^r-d better as long as he lives. Hurrah for Joe ro "n, and may the Republican in this respect be like him. F^Kev. C. W. Lane* will address the citizens M dkinson Co., at Irwinton on Saturday next, t " inst. at 11 o’clock, upon the war, and the -fxsity 0 f providing for the sick and wounded of our army. Thai Crottfed Swell. 01 !< i a fte r fke adjournment of that ill- ouu-ued Convention which met in Milledgeville > i« I til of Steptemher, the Editors of several wapapers professed to see a perfect ground * of puhiic opinion in fav or ot - their pr0 ce,d- ‘'■srs. his notable discovery, we believe, was . r * " laJe hy the Editors of the Columbus T imus, ie news was caught up and echoed and re- s 1 01 if ^ 6 ^' onven, i° n press throughout the i.cent developments have proven that sue, «as in the imagination of these editors, nit an in public opinion. T'nire has indeed en aground swell of public opinion that has c tnp etcly overwhelmed the getters up and the a„ o.s.nt iat Convention. The people had deter- »nned to re elect Gov. Brown long before the Con vention met, and the efforts made to choke down public opinion, made the people angry, and ! IC ver< f' t:t which they have given at the ballot OOX, is intended more as a stern rebuke to the Convention, its aiders and abettors, than as show- * an y d slike to the amiable gentleman who was so unfortunate as to receive the nomination of tin Convention. V e think those Editors and pol iticians, who figured in that Convention, and iliose who gave aid and comfort to them after wards, will have reason to remember the ground swell which they have raised. * timely Arliclr—TV 111-re do the goods route from ? The following timely and pointed article we ,ake from tiie Richmond Examiner. It is strange indeed toat certain articles disappear, and are straightway supplied, and it is equally strange hat a lew men generally have the articles needed, and charge any price for them they can squeeze out of the customer. Where do they get their goods from 1 \\ o agree with the Examiner that the subject ought to be brought before the public fo action : There is little doubt that the business of smug gling is going 011 at this time on as large a scale as was ever known before in the history of the world Nobody meets with any difficulty in find- ng any article of goods or provisions that he desires. Wiiatever the article may he. it can he tiad; hut it can only be had at a tremendously high price. Ir is not that the supply of merchan lise is limited, for like the oil 111 the widow’s ruise, it does not diminish in the hands of the few provident dealers by the drafts made upon it : bat it is, that those who are fortunate enough to posses unfailing stocks, have a monopoly of the trade, and can exact what prices they choose to put upon their goods. It is given out that, as to those brought into Richmond, Maryland is the source from which these constant supplies of goods and merchandise are procured. It is said that they are brought into Virginia by small schooners plying from Bal timore, which know how to run up into the creeks fth>. Potomac and the Bay. Be this as it may. certain it is that the goods do come in large quan tities into Virginia, and that the trade is in the hands of a few enough men ami firms to enable lieni to command what prices they may choose to fix upon their property. No matter what may be the channel through which these goods are brought into the South, it juite certain that they are procured from the North. They are brought in in defiance of our revenue laws, and they are. paid for in defiance f our sequestration act. The business is fraudu lent from beginning to end ; and the high prices exacted by the smugglers of the goods operate as a salvo to the consciences of the smugglers. But th« is not the only form in which a large lass of the community arc manifesting a disposi tion to speculate upon the condition of the eoun- ’ry. Tiiere is a general tendency among all classes of dealers, in all classes of articles, to de mand exorbitant prices for their commodities.— And this tendency is not confined to the dealers in those articles that are not produced in the South, and would naturally become scarce during the suspension of external trade. It is tli ’ case as to every article that is bought and sold, except those produced by the farmer and the husbandman.— He alone, of all the people who have commodities 11, is forced to take half prices for his farm produce, while he is compelled to pay double prices for the supplies for which he goes into market. It is a very curious phenomenon that a farmer may find any article of trade which he can possi blv desire in the market, from a hogshead of sugar to an ounce of quinine, from a camel’s hair shawl to a papir of pins, and can command it by pay ing double prices ; but the moment he offers his own farm pn ducts for snle. at once he must drop his prices to half rates, and listen to ingenious ar guments to convince him that he may thank his stars that he can get even them. This disposition to speculate upon the yeomanry of tho country on both sides of the account book is the most mortifying feature of the war. It is a species o. ia.iKeG tiuk i.itrt ill assorts wiin tiie nobles cause in which the country is engaged.— The “army worm” never appeared in the countrj in such formidable array, with so ferocious an appetite, or so destructive a voracity, as it has appeared in the South within the last month 01 two. While the speculators are devouring the sub stance of the people, and defrauding the Govern mentol ils revenues, the Government itself is un wittingly aiding and abetting them in their vo- - cions work - The excuse alleged for the high u m'-lassos. meat, fuel, and all taken possession ot the rai »ui» to u*- ransportation, and that the transportation of the puhlic is at a stand still. Hundreds of car loads of sugar and salt and merchandise of many de seriptions are said to he lying in the depots ot ihe West, unable to make their way to Eastern markets, by reason of the action of the Govern ment. There is doubtless some truth in the numerous allegations on this subject; but it is simply in credible to suppose that the railroads could not bring down tiiese articles, if they used the propei energy, in sufficient quantities to meet the current demands of the community. The tact that what ever articles a person may want can be readily found, and can he procured by paying the enor rnous prices demanded, proves that they exist in sufficient quantity in market for the wants of the community, and are made to command the ele vated prices at which they are sold hy combina tions of speculators. We will not say that the body of speculators is large and powerful enough to influence the policy of the railroads and to oh struct their freight operrtions. for we do not know the fact, and could not designate the names ot the conspirators or the railroads; but we d< state the undeniable /act that the public firmly believe that such combinations and conspiracies exist. Whatever obstruction the Government occa sions in the freight operations of the railroads is but temporary, and will he removed when the ne cessity for it ceases. We have no doubt that Government has laid its hand quite heavily upon the roads tanning from this city to Manassas and that a people dependent upon these roads foi supplies have suffered greviously from the neces sity Government was under to monopolize the trains ; but this fact does not hold in regard to the roads running 8-utilward in connection with th> Southern markets ; and it is these latter roads against which the public feeling is more particular ly directed. There have been various convocations and Conventions held in the South, since the war, with reference to currency. Government loans and other matters of public moment. It seems to 11s that the prevailing high prices, the ttnconsciona ble speculations going on in the necessaries of life, the deficient transportation of the railroads ami the wholesale smuggling that is rife, also af ford matters weighty enough forthe deliberations of a Convention of the people. A beautiful thought There have been so many beautiful things said and written about death, and so many consoling and happy conceptions of the soul’s existence alter death that he must bo a bold writer indeed to es say to engage the reader's attention with an ex tended article on this subject. A few days ago while reading an article in the Eclectic Magazine of a recent date, we were touched with the closing paragraph. It the reater does not agree with us that the ideaand language of this writer is “beau tiful exceedingly” then we think he has never touched his ear to the lips of a dying child. “Never think, reader, that the dear ones you have seen die, had tar to go to meet God after they oarted liom you. Never think, parents who have Le p n your children die. that after they left you, they had to traverse a dark solitary way, along which you would have liked (if it had been pos sible) to lead them by the hand, and bear them company till they came into the presence of God. Yon ditl so, if yoti stood by them till the last breath was drawn. You did bear them company into God's very presence, if you only staid beside them till they >iied. The moment they left you, they were with him. The slight pressure of the cold fingers lingered with you yet; but the little child was with his Saviour.” Calhoun CrtJ».

Nichols, of the Governor’s Horse Guards, and Lieut. McGregor, of the Baldwin Volunteers, are also here, and would be glad to get a few more recruits for their respective corps. The ranks of the Blues, we believe, are full. Comparative pay of the Northern and South ern Armies. We have heard many persons complain at the excessive amounts received by our officers in the Confederate Army, and some have contended that they receive double the pay of the Federal Army | ,j 0 j t 1 officers. This was our own opinion until re cently, when we saw the following statement in the Richmond Enquirer, which that paper has ob tained from reliable data. This statement shows that while there is an apparent difference, yet in fact the Northern officers get the most pay Our plan is more direct and honest, theirs more indi rent and thieving. Theie is however too great a disparity between the pay ot the private and his officer. The latter has none of the drudgery of the camp to perform and is far less exposed to sickness and danger The pay of Liucolu's private soldiers is $13 per month, ours receive only $11. Ihe following is from the Enquirer. MONTHLY PAY OF A CAPTAIN OF INFANTRY IX TIIE CNITEIl STATES SERVICE. For the Southern Fedefal Union. CITY TAXES—KETRE.VCIlIIEiYf Messrs.

S. officers is greater. For instance, in the U. S. army, field and staff officers draw commuta tion for forage at the rate of eight dollars per month, whether they actually keep the horses or not In the C. S. army, commutation for forage can only he drawn when the horses ore actually kept and mustered into the service. In both ser vices, nine dollars per month additional pay is allowed for every five years service. In the Artillery and Cavalry the same proportion is ob served. If we take, for example, the office of Colonel, the comparison will stand thus: The pay of a Northern Colonel, exclusive of forage, is $2(10 40 per month. The pay of a Con federate Colonel, exclusive of forage, is $195 00 per-month. The Northern Colonel is allowed for the forage of three horses, whether lie keeps horses or not—a further sum of $24 per month—while our Colonel receives forage only when he uses horses, and for the number used. In the U. S. Army, the pay proper is less than one-half of the entire compensation received by the officer. In the Confederate services, the pay is in full nj all allowances, except for fuel, quar ters, forage, and traveling expenses when travel ing under orders. Commutation for fuel and quar ters is only allowed when public quarters cannot be furnished, forage only for horses actually inns tered into service, and traveling expenses at ten cents per mile. Commutation for fuel and quar ters. and travelling expenses, is allowed iu the U. S. service, in addition to the allowances enu merated above. It is thus seen that, when the case is fully stated, our officers rece'vo /ess than the officers ot the Northern army, instead of more than double, as has been supposed. The misapprehension grows out of the fact that we state the pay hon estly, and they smother theirs up in extras. 4BJIY ('OK RESPONDENT'S. Camp “Bartow,” near Fairfax C. H. Va , l September 2<>th, 1801. V Messrs. Editors : Being “off duty” to-day, and having my hands full of nothing to do, I have concluded to dispel the ennui consequent to such a condition, by wri ting a rambling letter to youi ..-Liable paper. I am, at the same time, convinced, that, howevei devoid of intrinsic worth the letter may be, it will yet be of interest to those who have friends and relatives in the Grand Army of the Potomac The great events which have tran-pired here have given to this part of Virginia, not only a vast amount of historic interest, hut the Army of the South now stationed here, composed as it is ot the tiower of the must cbivalric people on earth, has bound it by a closer and dearer tie to the gal lant hearts of our sunny elime. Knowing all these things, it is a difficult matter for a “tyro” to gather the most important items from tho vast For one, I say, let us cut down the City expenses Who says nay ! The election takes place in De cember. Let us see to it, that our new Govern ment is founded on retrenchment.

I regret very movements of our Regiment from l..o ti. *hn time ot its en campment near Aia::„ •• v --e been informed by the ,-w The long interval of rest, which we er. seijuent to that movement, was interrupted on the afternoen of the 10th by the order to be ready to move at day-light on the next morning. The bustle in Camp consequent upon preparation, had hardly subsided, when the morning call was beaten and we took up the line of march towards Fairfax C. II. Arriving within four miles of that place, we again encamped and prepared to forget the fatigue of the day in that calm deep sleep which is the greatest blessing of the weary soldier. But vain was the hope, for but few had sunk into forgetfulness, when a quick call rang along the lines, and in ten minutes more we were again en route with nothing but our arms. It was a wet and miserable night, and our march was along a terrible road amid daikness so intense that it could bo felt. The men were falling on all sides in the deep mud, and it was impossible even to see those who were touching you, but the hope of meeting tho Y’ankees kept up our spirits, and the difficulties of tho way were made matters of jest and laughter. It had been reported that before the morrow's dawn we would meet the foe, and our disappointment can be imagined when we were halted at midnight and told that the enemy had been met and repulsed. We lay on our arms, in tho rain, until morning, and then marched back to our Camps, feeling decidedly “sold” but not otherwise injured. We remained in Camp until Sunday, when we were moved forward two miles, b-ingnow about that distance from Fairfax C. H. Our eueampment here is a very pleasant one. Tho lines were laid out in such a manner as to throw the officers’ tents of our Company on the highest point of ground, giving us the benefit of plenty of fresh air, and a fine view of the sur rounding country. The other Regiments of our Brigade are encamped near us: as also two Com panies of Artillery, the one from Martiusburg, Va., and the other from Americus, Geo. The health of our troops is rapidly improving under the 6trict hygienic regulations which have been adopted here, and I am in hopes we will soon be able to report a clean list As lor tho .prospect of ba'tle, that lies in the untried future, and around the future of our operations an impenetrable veil of mystery is drawn. I indulged in a ramble yestetday for the purpose of looking up some of the Oglethorpe “boys,” who are thickly scattered about this place. I succeeded in finding the Camps of several among the S- C. forces, but uii much to see most of the old members of our company act so miserly and indifferent towards the company’s interest. Mr. N. Hawkins and Mr. .I'-'s Stiles have each given me a horse.

Editors: We are gettiug up hospital stores, such as are essential for our wounded and sick soldiers for the last company which has left us for our defence, the Governor’s Horse Guards. We know that none of our patriotic countrymen of Baldwin will hesitate a moment to be our soldiers friends, in giving such necessaries for our absent and sick or wounded soldiers as may be in their power to furnish; w ho could hesitate to give to the lips of our countrymen what sickness and wounds may demand for their comfort, perhaps for their lives, thus risked in our behalf. We name some of the requisites. Arrow Root, Rice, Flour, Tapioca, Wines, Brandy. Mustard, Quinine and medicines w hich are of use for such occasions. One of our ladies, is going on as a nurse who is doing her patriot duty and she will cairy to the needed spot whatever may be furnished. Come countrymen with the sick soldiers requisites and hand what you can to Scott &. Caraker. Tinsley & Nichols or Grieve & Clark and receive for your reward the luxury of a high heart and a good conscience. TIIE SOLDIERS FRINED. A gentleman who had returned to Arkansas from a visit to St. Louis, communicates to an Ar kansas paper a good joke 011 General Fremont, who, it seems, got up, mounted and equipped a body of troops as a special body guard ; their horses were gupeiior, and their arms and appoint meuts of the finest description. He was proud of it. It lvas to be his pet. But one day this fine body went out to pL-rform snndry evolutions at about two miles from the city, and they never came back. They were last heard of in General Hardee’s camp, where they accidently found their way. If any one wants to see Fremont mad, it is only necessary to mention body guard in his presence. [Special Dispatch to the Daily Morning News.] Charleston, Oct. 4.—The Hon. P. Phillips, lady, two daughters and Miss Levy, the ladies recently imprisoned by Lincoln, have arrived here and will leave for Savannah to morrow. l<inroln’H Fleet off New Orleans. New Orleans, Oct. 4.—The sloop-of-war Vin cennes, a large propeller, the steamer Water Witch, and two sloops of-war, names unknown, a schooner and pilot boat are now lying at the head of the fortunately the Regiments were on j icket duty, j Passes near Munson's Hill. Deceived by what the Vir-! A Frru. h Ha.i-of^nr 'i.. the Mississippi ginians call ‘•miles,” 1 walked on until I found j yesterday evening says the X. O. Picayune, of the myself in Bonham’s Brigade, around which the j 24th. Coin. Hollins received a telegraphic dispatch from main body of the Army is encamped. Here 1 found one of my Classmates, and, standing in front of bis tent, I was at the bottom of an in c ined plain of vast extent, while upon its gradual slope the Brigades of our Army were encamped in almost countless numbers. It was the hour of the evening drill, and from that single point thousands of bayonets could be seen dashing back the sunbeams in wavering lines of light. It was a scene I loved, and I lingered till the sinking sun reminded me that I was many miles from Camp and in a strange country. Retracing my steps, I reached Camp in time for supper. One of my Classmates has died near this place. His name, Hugh Montgomery, was well known in Midway and vicinity, and no doubt many friends will regret his early death. Bat I havo already trespassed too long on your patience. The health of our Company is remarkably good, and under the drill of our efficient Captain are being rapidly perfected iu all that makes the soldier. Already the palm is yielded to it in the Regiment, and should the time come when the storm of battle shall burst upon ns, old Baldwin-need not fear for her fame, when entrusted to the brave hearts and stalwart arms of the “Baldwin Volunteers.” LIEUT. « ' -Q g 2 S3 2 COUNTIES. 3 3= a!

Departure of Alien Enemies.—We learn with sur- prire that thr ee hundred residents of this city and vi cinity, who have hitherto been regarded as good Southern citizens, have announced and registered them selves as “alien enemies,” and requested permission to withdraw to the North; and we hear with amazemeut aDd alarm that the authorities have given orders to al low them to depart, with passports blank as to the de scriptions of their persons.

Leavenworth, Sept. 28.—Reports from Gen cneral Lane's command, say, that after a suc cessful engagement, “the rebels” at Papinsville. made a forced march to Osceola, surpris.ng and capturing a supply train. Jefferson City, Sept. 28.—Capt. Walter, from Col. Marshall’s regiment, has arrived here trom Lexington, which place he left on Tuesday noon. He says that the main body of Price’s force was at Lexington when he left. All of the Federal ifficers had been re leased on parole, but Mulligan, who refused to give his, for private reasons. Price, probably, has 35,090 men with him, and confident ly expected Gen. Hardee with 8 or 9,000 men to join him on Thursday. Ten thousand “rebels’” bad been sent across Missouri from Lixington on Thursday, with the avowed intention of attacking Kansas Lane. It is said that the Federalists had no cartridges, grape, or other shot, and no shells left at the time ot tho surrender of Li xington; but lost two or three hundred kegs of powder. The Confederates were casting all kinds of ball: and the Lexington foundry was running day and night. 1 he Confederates were greatly encouraged by their victory, and confidently declare that St. Loui: will soon be in their possession. Gen. Price’s official report of the battle of Lex ington has been teceived. The following is the closing paragraph: “Our entire loss in this series of engagements amounts to 25 killed and 72 wounded. The ene my s loss was much greater. The visible fruits of this almost bloodless victory are great. We have taken about 3,590 prisoners, among whom are Cols. Mulligan, Marshall, Reding, White, and Grover, aud Major Van Horn, together with 118 other commissioned officers, five pieces of artillery, andtwo mortars, over three thousand stand of in- lantry arms, a large number of sabres, about 759 horses, many cavalry equipments, teams, and ammunition, more than $i0tt,990 worth of Com- missary’s siorts, and a large amount of other property. In addition to all this, we obtained the restoration of the great seal ot the State, the pub lic records which had been stolen from the proper custody, ami about $960,999 in money, of which the Banks in this place had been robbed, and w hicb I have caused to be returned ” A Federal officer from Lixington says that a tew members ot Gov. Jackson’s Legislature had assembled in that town, and passed the Ordinance of Secession. When the informant Iett, they were discussing an act for the confiscation ot property. Parsons was opposed to the Southern Confederacy. CAPTURE OF A BARK. Philadelphia, Sept. 27.—The U. S. steamer Brooklyn has arrived from the mouth of the Mis sissippi.

AFFAIRS IN MISSOURI. Memphis, Tenn.. Oct. 4.—Gen. Hardee and his troops are at Columbus, Ky. Gen. Jeff Thompson’s force is at New Madrid, bound to St Louis, and will join with Gens. Price and McCulloch. Gen. Clark is moving hence in the same direc tion, with 29 pieces of cannon. Eight thousand Confederates have moved to wards Paducah from Columbus. The Kentuckians are redeeming Kentucky from Federal thraldom, and they predict that the Southern winter quarters will be in St. Louis, Louisville. Washington and Baltimore. No Cotton from Charleston. The Mercury says it is now settled by the patriot ism of the shippers, and tho will of the people ot Charleston, that no cotton will be shipped trom that port to foreign nations. The embargo which Coni*-“»« lias failed to put upon the exportation ol ’ ° — h’na have ini- for the people of South Carolina oa , of selt-sairifice and patriotism, unless it . ported by the people ot the other States in out seaport towns. If cotton is exported from Sa vannah, Mobile or New Orleans, the policy tails. Foreign nations, hy obtaining partial supplies ot cotton, through a blockade rendered inefficient for the purpose, will hope for more; and thus be in duced to withhold that decisive action, which should be enforced, to rid themselves and us of a blockade which no nation should respect on ac count of its illegality, according to the law of nations. 'These views have our cordial endorsement, and we hope to see perfect unanimity on the subject in the Southern ports. As for rice, turpentine, &c , we would let them go. They are perishable commodities, and to keep them we should ha tar greater losers than any one else. And besides, ships must have back freights of some sort, nr they will cease to come to our ports. It is cotton that keeps the industry of the world in motion and saves empires from disorder and overthrow. Lotus direct our atten tion exclusively to that article, and not lose our commerce altogether, and have valuable products rotting in our storehouses and barns, from a too stringent prohibition on exports.
