Siveet M ork.—The Confederate Government
during the past three or four days has been
m&king a general descent upon all the sugar,
molasses and -rice in town, in the hands of
wholesale dealers—that is to say, all which
could be found. Up to yesterday the seizures
of sugar had amounted to about200.'hogsheads,
or about a million and a half in value, in cur
rent rates, or fobrteen thousand dollars’ worth,
old style. What has been done in molasses
and rice wo do not know. No price is fixed
upon -the seized goods, as they are to bo aps
praised in the terms of ’ the impressment act.
The impressees take it pretty coolly, consid
ering what profitable speculations this sort of
business spoils.

A CARD.
My Planting Friends: I desire to say to you
through this medium, to save answering let
ters, that I am not buying provisions, lard,
bacon, syrup, meal, corn or flour. I havo not
made profits on corn, meal or flour for months.
Since prices have been high, what I have sold
has been sold at less than fair commissions, as
I did not desire, or do I now, profits on the
absolute necessaries of life, to-wit: Corn;
meal, flour and bacon. ’ I have, as is well
known, bought flour at cost—$23, and sold it
to families at $25, when $35 to $40 could have
been gotton for it—same profits in rolation to
every man buy his provisions from first hands
as far as I am concerned. The reason I do
this is, that many of our citizens complain
daily that our merchants charge high prices for
provisions, forgetting that they cost merchants
high, as my planting friends know; and as I
was dealing moderately in such articles, being
my legitimate business, at little or no profits,
I do not feel disposed to be complained at un
justly, and therefore retire. Among those who
recently complained at high prices of provisions
in our midst, are a few of our wealthy pro
ducers, and I can point them out who have
large quantities of corn and peas, and perhaps
bacon, and no doubt : can spare considerable
quantities—they are the last men to complain
at high prices when they do not sell their own
product^ at more reasonable rates; at any
event if they do not desire to sell their surplus
at reasonable prices, they ought to bo silent
in complaining. This proposition I will make
those who say prices aro too high, and who
have corn to sell, that if they will sell me corn
at $1 a bushel, and it cost 10c -to lay it down
that L will furnish clerks and house room, and
sell to those who are needing the advantage of
low rates at one dollar and ten cents, or if you
cannot afford it under one dollar and twenty-
five cents, cost of transportation ten cents, I
will take it at that and sell at $1 35—same

THE SITUATION IN KENTUCKY.
The war seems to have broken out afresh in
the West. The Northern papers report active
movements by our men in Kentucky, and the
whole State is ablaze again with excitement of
a “ rebel invasion.” Our troops aro reported
moving towards the border, and the revolu
tion in the gallant old State seems to be re-,
vived in good earnest So rapid has been the
advance of onr men that the Union .men have
become- greatly alarmed,.and the Washington
Government has been appealed to for inline
diato aid. Skirmishing has commenced be
tween the two lines, and it was feared in the
North that our forces would push on before re
inforcements could be got there. ExsSecre-
tary Guthrie, the leader of the Union party
of Kentucky, has appealed to Lincoln for
troops to be immediately sent out, and the
news we get from the North shows that the
whole .Yankee concern at Washington is in
great fears of an uprising of the people of that
§wie, so long overawed and held in submis
sion by the bayonet at the cannon’s mouth
This is a new movement on the part of our
irto—Jj. itFTSoiktjjcky, and if not cru-heil by
overpowering numoera-of the enemy before
it shall gather strength, it may bo tno means
of redeeming and disenthralling that unhappy
State from the grasp of the Yankees.—Rich,
miner.
