state that the necessary negotiations
have been concluded for the intro

spun cotton yarns into the Europe

banking house takes the agency for
northern Europe, and one of the
first Greek houses here accept the
agency for the Mediterranean, We

The factories Of England, now furnish
snun COTTON for the whole of the manuiae-
turing districts of England, The Southern
States furnish the cotton far Europe aud
she does the spinning for the rest OF En-
rope. For some time past, project has
been on foot to establish spinning fa,ories
In the Southern States and thus enable our
own people to realize the full profits on
their staple production. England has been
richly rcmuncrated, in converting the raw
material into spun eotton,-enough so, to
justify her in paying heavy prices for it.
Then why cannot these profits be realized
by the producers as by the exporters? We
are glad that the South is in fair way to
deyclopc her untold resources,

The New COnfedcracy.

The Convention OF the seeded
States, at Montgomery, has prompt
ly executed the most important du-
/ ties for which it assembled. 1t has
adopted the Constitution of the old
] United States, so far us applicable,
as the basis of the new Government,
and has elected Gen.-Lelfepson Da-
Wis of Mississippi, and Alexander Ii
! Stephens of Georgia, Provisional
President and Vice President, re-
spectivcly, Of the Southern Contcd-
eracy.
The Convention, we think, has
acted wisely and well. The Con-
stitution of the old United States
was a good Constitution, and one
that the South never found fault
with. 1t was the North that was
in the habit of abusing and quar-
rolling with it, and avoiding its
plain provisincs, wherever it suited
their interests or their passions.-
1t was the North that was accus-
toned to construc that Constitution
Just as it chose, twisting it and per-
vcrting it, and drawing from it au-
thority for every kind of wicked
and oppressive legislation. The
South always construed the Consti-
tuition strictly, and lived up to all
it's requirements. The north gave
it latitudinous construction, and
pulled it all to pieces, to accomplish
cherished object. They protessed
great love for it, too, all the while.
Whenever, by no stretch Of con-
struction, they could find warrant
for any villainous undertaking, they
then assumed the ground that there
was " higher law which justified
them, and that ones own private
opinions were to be set up in supc-
riority to the supreme law Of the
land
We suppose the Northern Confed-
eracy will work along also under
the old Constitution, and tlfus we
shall have the curious spectacle Of
two nations, with territories ada
cent, both with the same form OF
Government, and yet unable to get
along peaceably in Il general onlon'
The gentlemen selected for the
two highest offices of the Southern
Confcderacy are so well known that
it is hardly necessary to do more
than mention their names. Gen.
Davis is less n Statesman than Il
warrior. lie has fought bravely
and galIantly on the tented field,
and has illustrated his patriotism
by distinguished services in the Sen
ate and the Cabinet. lie is Il man
of coolncss and of ncrvc-of pru-
dcncc, and yet of. great decision Of
character. lie is not afraid of re-
sponsibility or of anything clse.-
As President of the Southern Repub-
lie he is the right man in the right
place, and it is fortunate that we
have such a man in the present cri-
sis. If the North should make war
upon us. the quick military intcii'-
,,nncc of jefferson Davis, and the
;nsnirotion of his bold, brave heart,
will be of incalcuablc service to the
Southern cause.
Mr.. Stephens is almost as well
known. lie will prove, we think,
AS true and trusty champion of
the South as he was of the Union
when the Union existed.
Such are the auspices under which
the Southern Confedcracy takes its
stand among the nations of the
earth. That its career will be bril-
liant, prosperous and happy, we
have an abiding and assured conf
dence.-CresceRt.

An Armstrong gun OF large call
bre arrived at Charleston few days
ago from Europe via Savanna. Its
destination is Georgetown, and it
comes to the order of Mr.. Weston,
wealthy planter, who resides in
that locality. He has also imported
one hundred and fifty muskets, at
his own expense, for a volunteer
corps in his own neighborhood.-E
This munificcnt libcrality was
purely voluntary. Wonder if the
Union croakers wont say it was a
forced loan?" That portion of the
Union party that has its eyes and
hearts always in it's pockets, makes
no note of the vast sums volunta-
rily expended by the friends Of Sc
cession and independence, while ev-
ery idle rumor about forced loans
and enormous taxes, fills them with
virtuous indignation. They might
indulge, occasionally, little virtu-
GUS admiration of loans and contri-
buttons, which are not forced.

Chemical Rlunllcr.


I We find Il writer in n widely cir
culatcd paper saying g:-"Phosphatc
oflimc is not fixed salt, neither So
luble nor volatile, and when rcmov'
cd from the soil must be replaced.
/ In the last clause is n fiat contradic.
ton of the first for ifthis compound
were neither soluble nor volatile, it
would be absolutely impossible to
remove it from the soil. You could
not do this without removing the
soil itself, and then it would not bc
removed from the soil, but only re-
moved with the soil, and the soil
after the removal, would be just as
phosphate rs before. The truth is,
it is soluble, slightly so, to be sure,
but to such degree that every
wheat crop, as well as most other
crops, takes = little Of it, which it
could not do, if it were, as the wri-
ter says, neither soluble nor vola-
tile" The fact of its solublity, by
which the crops, are always abstract
ing it from the soil, should induce
the farmer to preserve carefully and
and return the soil all the farm fer
tilizcrs, and then if need be to pur-
chase and apply others. Bones,
bone dust, the shavings and saw
dust from comb factories and the
superphosphates sold by honest men
are we'll adapted to re-supply this
valuable ingredicnt.-Ddy Booh.
This salt is absolutely essential
to the maturing Of all the cereals,
and exists largely in the soils of our
Texas lands. The experiment of
wheat growing in this State, has
demonstrated that successive crops
in the same fields, have not for
years exhausted the chemical COM
poncnts of the soil, as shown by
the improved character of each sue
cecding crop, and all without the
tedious process of manuring resort
cd to in the older States. The rich
ness and fertility Of Texas lands,
and their superiority over all others
forms the great desidcrata of farm
ers, large yields with small labor
and little expense. When this is
fully appreciated, Northern Texas
will become the granary of the
South and secure complete inde-
pcndence from Northern markets.

a NEW STATE TO BE CARVED OUT
OF ILLINoIs.-We are not in favor
of agitating a dissolution of the
Union, but every day that passes
and every mail that comes to hand
convinces US of the impracticability
of a compromise between the Two
sections of this country-thc Re
publicans, with few exceptions, in
sisting upon a course that would
subject fifteen States of this Union
to a state of abject slavery, which
they will never submit to and which
thousands in the North will never
permit. We are for the Union from
the ground up, but if she splits on
the issues now before the people we
are for the South-the formation OF
new State, to be called "Egypt,
and attaching ourselves to the
Southern Confedcracy. We want
TO belong to government ruled by
"white mcn-not by those who
would reduce themselves to the lev
el of a negro. Hurrah for the
State of Egypt and the Southern
Confederacy-no affiliations with
the negro-equalizing cohorts of the
