WAR WARRANT, No

New, from the Treasury Department we
expected Treasury notes, Treasury drafts,
Treasury acquisitions, and all other sorts OF
paper nancy with new names; but we never
expected to see the War Department 90
into the manufacture Of paper money rags.
This note, however, has been beautifully
engraved Cor the War Department. and is
issued from il just as $l0O bank note is
from any bank in Wall street. Il passes
just as any other bank note does, and is
rather better currency, because it is without
IdiscosRt in any other part Of the Union.
So We have at last, and already, Under this
hard AaOney Administration, the Governs
meut banking System established both ia

a GSrcnt Mistake.

The Washington Union says-"the long
agony is now over."-This is gross error
1.-The agony has Just commenced, and when
il will terminate no one can fOrcsee. The
passage Of the new Tariff bill has already
had a seriously injurious eject upon busi>
ness Of all kinds. Men are brought to
dead stand, not knowing in which direction
TO move. Stocks have fallen dry goods
have decreased in Value-the coal and iron
business will have 20 be susPonded--ihe
price Of labor viii be reduced, and opera
tvcs will be thrown out Of employment; and
yet the official editor has the folly and the
impudcncc TO assert, that the agony is over.
a triumph has been obtained over the in
dustral portion Of the people, and English
interests are victor lOus over American: but
the official editor shouts "the long agony
is over" and thus mOcks at the calamity Of
those who have been ruined by their repre-
sonlalives. Could he hear the breathings
of "decp damRatiOn" which are vented
against the authors Of the new Tariff by
their political friends, he would be convinc.
cd that the agony is not over and that those
who have taken upon themselves the res
possibility Of passing the British bilL will
be held to strict and severe accountability
for the deed which they have done. II will
cause a return TO the times Of 1912, wheE

ners, and bad scarcely wherewithal to keeI
"soll and body together" Can he thiRG
that men in this situation will throw Rp thei
caps, and unite with him in the cry Of 18th,
long agony is over" Men will hardly praise
the hand which snatches the bread from tht
mouths. Of themselves and families; ant
hence the editor Of the Union need not an
icpa;e that the shout Of "glofy" will b.
glRcp, by those whom he has contributed Il
ruin.
A course Of the most reckless legislation
has been puTsued.-Exlravagan dpprOpria
tons have been made, whilst the means O
obtaining revenue have been reducetl-but
as il members of Congress were resolve,
TO cap the climax Of their folly and injustice
they have aimed fatal blow at the prosper
ity Of those " no fOolishly cOnfdcd in thei
judgment and honesty. Never were 5
many inconsistent acts Of legislation befOt
witnessed. Bot there will be a recOil whic
will smitc the authors Of the wide .sprea
ruin which has been brought upon tho couu
try-and we rely with confidence upon th
arrival of the period, when those America
politicians in British interests will be swer
from Our halls Of legislation, and good me
and true substituted in their places. Their

that "the lo0g agony is over"

of letter, received IN this city yesterday
from Cheraw, 5. C., which states that conN
siderable excitement prevails in that place,
in consequence of a man named DORSEY,

Of respectable citizens, that he was cogni>
zant Of the fact, that plot had been laid
for stealing or eniicing away negroes from
their masters; lhatit extended from Virgin
IA to Texas, and that some of the most re-
spectacle citizens were engaged in it. lie
further stated, that he had an engagement
to meet one of the aUmber the following
night at MarlbrO and that those who doubted
his revelations might accompany him, and
satisfy themselves. A n9mber did so, t6rst

WINGED that they will not make more than

continue its depredatiOns a week longer,
many planters will fall far short of that.
We learn from CreditablO sources, that on
some Of the plantations in this county,
where three weeks since it was thought that
200 or $50 bales would be picked not over
100 can be picked. All this damage, We
understand, has been done within the last
ten or twelve days. In addition to the great
destruction by the army worm. the constant
rains with which we have been visited Gots
the cotton which is opened and prevents
other bollS from opening.
