consider, but Col. Kenly replied h,s orders were
immediate, and proceeded to the Marshsps Office,
taking possession. The Commissioners then
directed the officers TO obey the military authority
and declared their intention to prepare protest

( Hon. Robert J. Walker, is out in the Northern papers in Union saving letter. We make the following extract:
 Eff our fathers fought through seven long years of gloom, and poverty, and trial, to establish this Union, amid every sacrifice of blood and treasure, with their homes and prin- cipal cities often occupied by hostile arms, shall we, their children, refuse to encounter equal or even greater sacrifices to mantain un- broken this great and glorious Union ? But thanks to a gracious Providence, this Is not required. The war has not reached single Northern States or city, and by prompt action we can suppress the rebellion within the next few months. We can replace the American flag over every acre of American soil, open every port to our commerce, and then only will the prosperity of New York and whole Union be re-establlshed."
 Still ssharping on my daughter;" the ''glori- ous Union," The immortal Robert J. is of the opinion that rebellion may be suppressed within the next few months He seems to be just now where Mr. Lincolon was when he first called out his three months men, He has evidently been asleep and has not heard of what has transpired since last May.

Gg Drafting has been ordered to be discon- tnued in the North, for the reason that if the volunteers can't stand before us, it was useless to have the mere dead wood of raw conscripts. As the New York Times says: "The man who fights simply because he is compelled to do so, will be very likely to forget his devo- tion to his country, when bullets are whistling around him, and prove his devotion to himself by running away" The truth is, the North has little stomach for the fight, especially fanatic New England-and while a half mill lion of volunteers cannot be had, itis idle, and indeed dangerous, to draft soldiers in demo- cratic, free-sufrage country. The conscripts will not make soldiers, make but may make mutineers.

N1y- The Richmond correspondent of the Charleston Courier mentions as singular coincidence that among the prisoners captured at Manassas was Calvin Huson, jr., the demo- cratic competitor of Alfred Ely, for Congress, in the last election. The two candidates are good friends, and have been confined together ever since their arrival in Richmond. Huson is now very ill with typhoid fever, and his constant attendent is his old political op- ponent few days ago the prisoners pres ented Ely with a wooden sword, for which he made an eloquent speech of thanks. He looks fat and clean, behaves himself, and curses Lin- coin semi-hourly. He is well treated by Gen. Winder, and is, in fact. rather favorite with his custodians.

DIED.

Near Ashwood, Bolivar county, Mississippi, on the 5th inst, HARDIN s. ADAMS, Esq, in the 64th year of his age.
 "The young may die, but the old must die" Thus has passed away another of the warm hearted and noble of our race. The deceased was a native of Tennessee. He was soldier in the war of 1872, and fought under Gen. Jackson at New Orleans. Ever ready to re- lieve the distressed, he had many friends who will mourn his death, and shed tears of re- gret at his loss. Though he diedfull of years, and by the course of nature could not have survived long, yet his children and many rela- tives, at distance, will learn with, grief that he is no more. He died of congestion of the lungs. He was confined to his bed some ten days before his death; but every means which kindness could bsstow, or affection suggest could not save him.
 Farewell departed sire,
 Thy race is run"

Cotton-Racon.

The North feels most acutely the want of cotton; Great Britain will soon feel the need of it also. The Confederate Government has wisely legislated to prevent its export, except upon it's own terms and in its own time The. people should not attempt to thwart the de- signs of the Government as we learn by our exchanges some of them seem tempted to do. But knowing that Great Britain needs cotton and hoping to delay, and if possible prevent the recognition of our Government by that of Victoria, the Lincoln usurpation promise to capture enough for both countries and supply the British manufacturers. Hear what the New York Herld of the 18th says:
 elf the English government and English cotton manufacturers and stock operators will only Keep perfectly quiet, we will undertake, in two months from the present time. that our
 Federal army, with the military movements now in operation, will penetrate to the very centre of the cotton States, and supply them with all the cotton they want, say 4,000 900 bales, value two hundred millions of dollarso Rather big talking, that!
 This is the Lincoln programme. Let us adopt one to meet it. The South needs bacon -she will probably need it worse before she |gets it. While the North is seeking to pene- trate to our cotton depots and plantations to take our cotton, let us march to their bacon depots and smoke houses, and corn and wheat and flour Repositories, and take their provi- sions. Let us show them that the game they propose is one that two can play at, and that we can1Play at it as promptly and expertly as the North. These commodities are very low in the Northwest, and there must be super abundance of them
 The Government needs and will need large quantities for the troops, and the best, cheap est and surest way to get it, will be to go where it is, and get it.

THE COTTON QUESTION IN EURoPE.-Ihe Liverpool Journal, of the 7th inst, says that ssthe cotton question is perplexing in Europe; that the war in America is especially hurtfui to the commercial world that consequently, the European States are anxious to see some arrangements made that would restore trade to health; that France and England are in per feet accord on the business; that one won't move without the assent of the the other /; that the iron clad steamers have reference to Amer ican affairs, and not to European crisis; that France. in fact, wants cotton comparatively as badly as England, and that she wants bread stufs worse that she is not in condition Tn any way to challenge the world to battle; and that she will not fight Great Britian-wlll not fight where English sympathy is against her; that if there be action at all, it will he ullted one, and in the case of America.

A few days ago United States Marshal arrested man named Henry Stussy, at the Continental hotel, Philadelphia. A dispatch says:
 The accused had in his possession the sum of $6200 in drafts upon the house of Peabody S5 Co.,, London Information reached the marshal which induced him to believe that Stussy, who was from the South, was the agent of mercantile house in New Orleans, and that he was en route for Europe to pur- chase goods, which were to be sent to Loui- siana in English vessels, via Havana. The arrest was, therefore, made as stated, and the seizure of the money was followed by the dis charge of Stussy.

dT In recent article on the charges of the American system, the London Times de- liberately takes the position that the United States of American has ceased to be. s'Enough has now been learned to show that subjuga- ton of the South is next to impossible, and it's submission in the highest degree impro- bable. The Territories of the old Union will be divided, nor will the partition be territo- rial only. Between North and South there will be barriers of feelings, interests and tra- ditions. They will long look upon each other with jealousy and suspicion, ifnot with still worse sentiments, and the frontier will re- quire the same garrisons and observances as that between two monarchies of the European continent''
