WHO KILLED COL CAMERON,

A correspondent of the Richmond JYh;o

LEGION gives the following version Of the
affair:
"Wth your permission. will give you what
came under my own observation. On our
march from Manassas Junction to the battle
ground on the morning Of thesf fight, We were
joined by an individual who was known in
Charleston Harbor by the name Of 'Texsa,n (he
believe, hai!ing from that State, ) who inform
ed US that he had permission to volunteer dus
ring the battle, to fight where he pleased, and
seeing the Palmetto Dag: he concluded to join
US. During thess essheatof the bat tie, when the
famous seventySnint6g of New: York were
driven back ip some confusion, their Colonel.

sad havoc Of his regiment, was about three

THE INEFFIc1ENCY OF THE BLOCKADE.
Thaleading Northetn jonrnals freely admit
the inefficiency OF Lincoln's Blockade, that it
is "a mockery, a delusion and q share," and
that it has Become laughing stock to the
European powers Us. we'll as to oil the priva-
'teers on tho Southern coasts. Every 'tav af.
fords new evidence of the total inefficiency of
the Blockade The coasts of South Carolina
are described as perfectly easy of ingress and
egress, and advices from Havannah and Hall
lax constantly announce the arrival Of vessels
loaded with cargoes from the various Southern
ports. Privateers are constantly running the
Blockade in the absence or in the teeth of the
enemy vessels of war. praying upon his com
merce, md then again returning with their
prizes into port. The number of privateers
at sea, will in itself demonstrate the ineficiency
of the blockade At,leass fifty of the enemy
vessels have been captured and many Of these
prizes have been sold zip,Southern ports On
the other hand only two Of the privateers have
been captured. and only a few of their prizes
have been taken. Our prvateers roam the
seas without let or hudrance; they have ..al-
ready been seeen on the extreme coasts of South
America and seem bound to cruise all over tho
world.
The total ineficiency of the Blockade, has
given just reason to the Lincoln Government
to fear the speedily Intervention of the Euro
pen powers, and various indications point to
aueh " result. It is said that Lord Lyons and
the French minister have joined in a remon.
STRANGE on the subject: whilst the military pre-
parations in Canada. the presence of large
fleet on our coast, the tone of the foreign jour-
nals and the current remor all foresbadow
the end-the recognition of the Southern Con-
federacy, and the termination of the Blockade.
Such result the North is begniug 10 realize,
and is hence assuming very belligerent atli-
tude towards the foreign powers. Foreign in
tervention will almost inevitably produce
war with France aud England; and in that
event we will have just matter of congratula-
tion, whatever may be the sel6sh motives
prompting to foreign interference,

The Confederate War Tar R;II

We published yesterday, full details of this
OIL ana mentioned the fact that it had been
passed by the unanimous vote of Congress.
Inc circumstance of this unanimty affords
anotherevdence of the patriotic disposition of
Congress, as we understand that there was CON-
siderable opposition to the bill osthe part of
members until the necessity of its passage be-.
came evident, when the minority determined
b yield their views and to give the bill pa-.
triotic supPort'on the definite conclusion of Il.
becoming law.
ihe estimates of the amount of revenue that
this bill is calculated to yield are various. We
learn that the Finance Committee, after ma
ture estimates of its provisions, were of opinion
that it would yield thirteen millions af dollars.
mr. Memminger, Secretary of the Treasury,
thinks that it will afford considerably larger
revenue; while estimates of members made in
the course of the debate were as low as ten
millions. The estimate of the Finance Com
mittee, as a medium between extremes and as
the result of deliberate and mature considera-
stion, may probably be accepted as correct, OF
as nearly 80 as It is possible to be-
The calculationof the taxable values in the

these values are to be taken as existing on the
1st Of October next, and as market value
being thus subject 10 oil the depreciations Of
certain values and certain amounts too value
from the operations of the bill, complicate the
calculation which, at best, cannot be made on
any positive basis.
We. learn that the objectsof Congress, in
providing for the redemption of the Govern
ment issues at date after the conclusion of
peace, is 10 secure, in the revival of trade and
commerce. consequent upon peace, a revenue
adequate to meet the demands of its floating
debt.
In the meantime. it is to be observed that
the revenue ACQUIRING from the war tax is ap-
Pi!cable not only to the interest Of the public
debt ank the ordinary expenditures, but is to
be used in praying off such portions of the
principal of the debt as may be possible and
con venient in'the discretion Of the Secretary of
the Treasury. This application of the revenue
| 10 in consequence of distinct pledge made by
Congress in the May loan bill, which pledge It
was bound to protect in Justice to the loans
negotiated under it. The present issue is to
replace the thirty millions negotiated under
the act of May 10, for which bonjs.were issued
with the provision then made of9a tax Of ten
millions, to be le7ied within the present cal
endnr year. to :proviJ iJe for. the ultimate re-
demption. Of the debt-Riehmond Examiner.

There are now about $4,000 Confederate troops
