WILL COTTON COME FROM TILE

SOUTH?

The belief in this country appears to be that the
successes of the Federal arms in the Southern States
will not lead to any material or early increase in
the supply of cotton, accompanied as those successes
are by a wholesale system of cotton-burning by the
Confederates themselves. It is only by a collation
of the very conflicting accounts received from the
spot that truth can be elicited. We therefore give
below an extract of a late number of the Union, a
journal published at Nashville, Tennessee,where the
Federal authority has recently been re-established.
Our readers must make such allowance as they may
deem requisite for the bias of the local reporter :
There is a great briskness in the cotton market at
this point. Loads are constantly passing through
the city on their way to the river. One boat, the
day before yesterday, left with some 200 bales.
Buyers are scouring the country in all directions, as
far as the protection of the Union lines extends, and
even further. The planters are acting like men of
practical sense, and are quick:to trade. Good mid-
dling readily brings 16 to 17 cents in specie or
United States Treasury notes, and 22 to 25 cents in
current Tennessee paper. There is no holding back
on the part of the planters. They all fully appre-
ciate the immense benefits which reviving trade
will scatter over an almost bankrupt country. One
thing has forced itself upon the minds of those even
who were unwilling at first to admit the fact—inter-
ference with private property, which has not been
included in th 3 rebellion, will not be made by
Union troops. All parties now feel secure in this
respect. Our fiends abroad may hail this as a sign
of reviving ennmerce in Nashville.—from the
Money Market-Review.

THE GERMAJ CONFEDERATION.—ACCOrdiDg to
information which we receive from a good channel we can
give the important fact to our readers that next month will
witness an assemby of Plenipotentiaries of different German
States at Vienna, in order to deliberate on the project of a
reform of the Confederation. The objects of their delibera-
tions will be, first, the convocation of delegates of the Ger-
man Constitutionhl Chambers, with a view to a general
legislation for Gemany ; secondly, the composition of an
executive power ; and thirdly, a Supreme Federal Court of
Arbitration,—ooo /02011 d.

The committee of Spanish certificate holdets have
received a letter from the chairman, in which he
informs them that in consequence of the advanced
state of the session, and the engagements of the
Finance Minister, he is aware that justice cannot
he done to the question during the remainder of
the session, and that it is therefore his intention
not to ask the Minister of Finance to bring it for-
ward until the Cortes meet again in October next,
when he expects the Minister will be prepared
with a measure to submit to the Chamber for bring-
ing the matter to a close.

business, however, was entered into. South-West-

GREAT TAKE OF SALMON IN THE SUIR.—Ga
Thursday Mr. Matthew Blake, Golden, killed six excellent
new salmon with one fly, on the Suir, in the neighbourhood
of Golden. On Saturday the same lucky angler caught two
large salmon, one weighed 261 b—a cock fish of as fine pro-
portions as ever greeted the enraptured eyes of a successful
disciple of old Isaack Walton, On Monday Captain Bag-
well Purefoy landed threo capital salmon with hie rod, near
Ballycarron, the gallant captain's piscatorial feat being
accomplished in a very brief period. These are but a few
instances of the unexampled good luck enjoyed this season
by the habitues of the salmon-abounding Suir.—Linierick

Sir W. ARMSTRONG said there were so many
figures that he could not go into their refutation
without consideration. He therefore suggested that
the discussion should be adjourned until a. future
occasion, when he would not only refute what had
been advanced, but would also state his own views
with regard to the best guns for vessels.
After some discussion, in which the lecturer's
calculation and deduction were severely criticised,
the meeting was adjourned.

THE SUN.
LONDON, TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1862.

The rejection of the British Museum Bill, last
evening, by so overwhelming a majority (consider-
ably more than two to one) comes, as
another sig-
nificant hint in favour of retrenchment. For it is
solely upon the score of economy, that the measure
has thus been thrown out upon the motion for its

second reading.

It should be observed, at once, that here again, in
regard to the British Museum Bill, as recently, in

itself that is in any way unpalateable. It is simply

TREATY WITH AMERICA.

Earl RUSSELL laid on the table a copy of the treaty
lately entered into between her Majesty's Government and
the United States of America for th 3 suppression of the
slave trade. The treaty gave a mutual right of search and
other extensive powers for the carrying out of its
provisions. The American Government had been most
active in preventing the fitting out of slave cruisers
at New York, and one captain of a slave ship had already
suffered capital punishment. He trusted that the treaty
would have the effect of entirely suppressing the nefarious
traffic..

?'he Bishop of OXFORD expressed his great gratifica-
at the announcement of the noble earl. He felt the tre,tty
was the one step in the right direction that was wanting to
make all the efforts this country had made for the suppres-
sion of that horrid traffic successful. All that was wanted
was that the flag of the United States should not be allowed
to cover and protect vessels in the slave trade.
Earl STANHOPE felt great pleasure at the announce-
ment which had just been made. He should like to know
whether the treaty was for an indefinite period or for a term
of years. _

Earl RUSSELL said the treaty was for ten years, but it
could be renewed.

Earl GREY was rejoiced at the completion of the treaty.
He thought in the present deart.i of cotton efforts should be
made for its cultivation in Africa.

8,000 of whom are soldiers. In 1831, under strong
popular pressure, the ELECTOR gave his people a
constitution substantially resembling that of Eng-
land, but, by the help of his soldiers, abolished it
almost immediately, and recommenced his absolute
course. Of course his pecple and be have been in
political antagonism ever since. The late Prussian
Chamber passed a decided vote in favour of Hessian
liberty—that is, of the restoration of the constitu-
tion of 1831. The KING of PRUSSIA had the
adroitness to accept this vote as the means of
strengthening his position as the great leader of
Northern Germany ; but Austria also, whom we
are now to regard as a Liberal power, hought well
to share the bid, and joined in demanding that the
Elector should recal an obnoxious scheme for elec-
tions) recently issued, and summon a Parliament
according to the law of 1831. Thus the two great
German Powers agreed to squeeze the Elector to
his duty. The King of PRUSSIA, however, took the
strongest measures, sending one of his Generals to
demand compliance with the views of the Federal
Diet, and assembling troops as if ready to use them:
This, however, he has not yet done. Indeed the
Federal Diet has not yet formally made its requisi-
tion on the Elector, but the KING tells his house that
a final solution shall soon be arrived at without
hesitation.

Altogether, the progress towards some degree of
constitutional liberty in Germany is becoming esta-
blished. The late Prussian elections will do very
much to confirm it. They will reassure all the
numerous petty States of Germany of the liberal
tendencies of the Prussian people itself, and show
that the KING must follow their lead. Austria
herself will gradually be led to convert her sham

. .
place in Germany ; and the smaller States will seek
the co-operation of the larger ones in obtaining
their freedom, much in proportion to their convic-
tion of the sincerity of each. It may be slow work,
but if not disturbed in any way, it looks as if it
would be real, and that the score and a half of
petty German despots would before long become
constitutional rulers, to be all followed, some day,
by German unity.

GREAT TAKE OF SALMON IN THE SUIR.—On
Thursday Mr. Matthew Blake, Golden, killed six excellent
new salmon with one fly, on the Suir, in the neighbourhood
of Golden. On Saturday the same lucky angler caught two
large salmon, one weighed 261 b—a cock fish of as fine pro-
portions as over greeted the enraptdred eyes of a successful
disciple of old Isaack Walton. On Monday Captain Bag-
well Parefoy landed three capital salmon with his rod, near
Ballycarron, the gallant captain's piscatorial feat being
accomplished in a very brief period. These are but a few
instan
habituescesofthey theexanpled good luck enjoyed this season
by the salmon-abounding Suir.--Limerick

by their compounds; but there is nothing in the
genius of the Greek or German equal to the genius
of Mr. Byron. We have no hesitation in saying
that there is no other living humorist who could
have concocted such a name. It stalks out upon
the ear with all the muddy grandeur of the old
Coburg in the days of Davidge. The owner of
this title is a count, who, having in his younger
days unconsciously appropriated a silver fork (he
calms his remorse by believing it was plated) at a
fashionable supper at Naples, has been driven in
consequence to the hills and brigandage, where his
band consists of his lieutenant—Spangalette (Mrs.
Mathews)—who is always swearing devotion to
him and always attempting his life. Here he is
followed by his daughter, the Lady Luna, who
carries the evidence of her father's innocence—the
fatal fork—in her pocket, and who, hiving been
wandering about for twenty years, finds it conve-
nieut to sit down. As every heroine in such a
position sleeps, her father takes advantage of her
unconsciousness to pick her pocket of the fork, and
thus arousing her, his petty larceny further arouses
her slumbering filial instinct. She recognises her
father, and rushes into his arms. A maniac
then enters. A wild woman of the hills,
who is, of course, the wife of the bandit count and
the mother of the L idy Luna; and though her
reasoning faculty is unsettled, has remarkably good
spirits, and hops about to a negro melody with the
greatest possible enjoyment. This interesting
being, receiving a mortal injury, is only to be re-
vived, like the Adelphi " Vampire," by being
placed. in the light of the rising moon; but, as
the moon on this occasion won't get up to do a
good action, she is revived by being placed
under the light of a policeman's bull's-eye, and
directly after her enemy, taking a tremendous
header from a bridge, the other strong sensation
features of the "Colleen Bawn" and the "Peep o'
Day " are in some measure illustrated,
and the Count and his daughter recover-
ing not only their character and their affec-
tions, but also their best clothes, with an appro-
priate song and dance, bring this powerfully con-
structed'sensation drama to a close.

Written with great humour, and very admirably
acted, the mysterious and remorseful brigand con-
trasting as happily with the more demonstrative
disposition and wi-,skers of his lieutenant—as the
exuberant maniac mother—relieves the classic
sadness of the child—each of which were
embodied to the life by Mr. and Mrs.
Mathews ; this burlesque elicited very hearty
laughter and applause, and when a little shortened
will become the very best thing of the kind that
has been witnessed for some years.
The entertainment, therefore, we are happy to
record, was entirely, and deservedly successful.
Mr. and Mrs. Mathews being aummoned at the close
of it to receive the congratulations of the audience.

embody views on which the present bill was founded.

COLONIAL.

TEA.—The market has been dull, and prices generally
have shown a downward tendency, particularly for inferior
descriptions.
suGAß.—West India descriptions continued in moderate
request, but only good and superior grocery qualities have
supported previous prices. In the refined market no mate-
rial alteration can be recorded as regards prices.
COFFEE—During the last few days there were no public
sales of importance, at ,d the business done privately was at
about previous quotations.
RICE.--The market shows rather more animation,
although the operations latterly have been on a limited
scale. Little- change of importance, however, can be re-
ported in prices.
SALTPEME.—The demand for British refined is steady,
and full rates are current for all qualities.
INDIGO.—At the public sales of East India, just con-
cluded, there was a limited attendance of buyers, and the
prices realised, compared with those of the previous auc-
tions, were fully 3d to 6d per pound lower on shipping qualities, and is on superior descriptions.
TALLOW.—The market has shown rather more activity,
and prices have shown a slight improvement for both pre-
sent and forward delivery.

Yesterday three ships were posted at Lloyd's as
missing—a notification implying that all hopes of their ever
being heard of is past—namely, the Britius, Isabella, and
Tiberius, all homeward bound from New York to Liver-
pool. They were, with their cargces, insured at Lloyd's.
The depositors in the Bank of Deposit have been
declared by the Lords Justices creditors, and not contribu-
tors, thereby reversing the juogment of the Master of tl e
Rolls. Messrs. Nesbitt and Monday (depositors) have been
chosen "creditors representative" to act on behalf of the
depositors generally, and Mr. Charles H. Edmunds has been
appointed solicitor. The decision of the Lords Justices
will relieve many depositors from anxiety.
