MONDAY MORNING, JUNE 5, 1861.
TIE ELECTION TO-DAY.

An election, heretofore regarded as important,
for municipal fapctionaries, takes place to-day.
Only one office is to be filled wherefor the voting
is general throughout the city-that of the Comp
trollership-to fill which our worthy and popular
young friend, Charles W, Cuberison, is candi-
date. If elected, of which there appears to be
little or no doubt, the affairs of that important
branch of the city government will be faithfully ad
ministered as long as they remain under the con-
troll of MIR. G. a Recorder is to be elected in the
Second District, to fill the vacancy caused by the
death of ]. L. Fabre, Esq, In the First District
two Aldermen are to be 'chosen-one to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of Sidney
Story, Esq, and one for the regular term. In the
Second, Third and Fourth Districts, one Alderman
for each is to be chosen and for the First Second
Third, Fourth, Sixth, Ninth and Tenth Wards As
sstant Aldermen, for each, are to be elected.
So little interest is manifested in this election
that we are particular in informing our readers
that it viii certainly take place in the manner and
form prescribed by law Therefore, LET all who
are entitled to vote exercise the "inestimable,"
etc, or let it alone, just as they please. Enough
votes will be poed to constitute an election, and
good men will undoubtedly be selected.

UNDILUTED FALsEHOOD.
The following is from the Cincinnati Gazette q

The following is from the Cincinnati Gazette of
the Goth ult:
The, Confederate State authorities at New Or
leans nave taken possession Of all the provisions in
that city, and given in payment Southern Confede-
Eaey bonds: This, we should say, was a mighty
cheap purchase 10 the Coniederates 1t also indi-
caves an alarming scarcity of supplies.
the above is undiluted falsehond-~there not
oeih8 particle or even a semblance of truth
apoul It, Nothing of the kind, as stated, has ever
occurred in New Orleans or any other Southern
ery' me state Government has plenty of hard
cash with which to pay for all its purchases. and
the Confederate Government is well providel in
that important respect. The intimation that .,on
alarming scarcity of supplies prevails is as ILL.,
founded as the remainder of the statements arc
untrue. There is no scarcity, nor is there roinr
to be any scarcity. On the contrary, there is
plenty of everything; and in a few weeks our.
granaries will be fairly bursting with abundance.
OF cereals, we viii raise a three years. supply if
the season continues propitiOus.
# downright, nnmitigated, persistent lying would
win battles, the South would have been oyerrun
and sabjugatad weeks ago The Northern press
pours forth Niagara of ialsehood each day, and
they appear to improve as they industriously prac
tice the Infamous act.

THE UNITED STATES LoAs.-Abouta week since
! the telegraph informed us that Massachusetts
would take at par five millions Of the new Treasury
loan advertised for by the Secretary of the Trea.
sury. TWAS also confidently asserted that several
times the amount asked for would be freely offered
at par. The bids were opened on Saturday last
and the story now reads somewhat differently. 1t
Is to the effect that five millions of the loan have
been awarded at eigttgJfve, discount Of fifteen
per cent, while generous Massachusetts is not
even alluded to. It is not many years since the
bonds Of the United States were bought up at six
temper cent. premium. That was before the Abo.
litionisfs took control of that Government.

| Our babies maidens and matrons have walled in
death agony in the streets of ST. Louis, where they
were shot down in cold blood by Abolition myr-
midons; and regiments composed of the scum of
Northern cities have been told that the "womeD
of the South were renowned for their beauty
connected with unmistakabe outgivings that there
was plenty Of plumber in the South What blacker
deeds than these did the Sepoys of India ever com
nit, or propose to commit?
And, in immediate connection with this, in order
to be as offensive to England and the South as pos
sible the Chicago Tribune says that the Sepoy re-
volt was merit" that the Sepoys "were more
numerous and not less highly civilized" than the
Southern people; that they had more means of
maintaining successful war than the people of the
South" and had "justas much of Navy to assert
their claim to share the dominion of the seas to in.
sttute blcckades and to provoke admonitory utter
ances of other maritime powers"
With these quotations we will submit the con-
GLIDING paragraph Of the Chicago Tribune's ar
ticle:
Mr.. Buchanan fool and knaue as he is. had not
the temerty to warn people to Keep hands off,
IN such way as to make the reYolted provinces
the equals of the British Empire, and Nena Sahib
the peer OF the occupant of the English throne He
would have been booted out of the Presidential
chair had he printed such paper; and all Christ
endom would have decided that his punishment
was not unequal to the crime that invoked it, He
failed to do that ULich the Queen has done With
haste that IS, to sag the least i3ldecen-almost be-
fore the arrival Of the diplomatic representative of
our Government, certainly before his explanations
to the Crown could have been digested--8hen makes
thus proclamation that will SOW seeds Of bitterness
IN the American mind, the fruit Of which years can
not eradicate.
We have italicsed a portion of the above, in
order to draw particular attention to its unmanli-
ness and offensiVeness. Ex-President Buchanan is
called " fool and knave," and comparison is then
instituted attempting to show that, g fool and
knave" as he is, he was too honest to act as dis
honestly and indecently as the Queen of England
has IN the issuance of the proclamation which has
aroused the wrath of the editors of the Chicago
Tribune! None but rotten-hearted Abolitionist
could make such comparison. Queen Victoria
that 7irtuQus and noble woman guilty of dis
honest and Indecent acts, which a "fool and
knave " would not commit!
Well, we imagine the British Government will
pay about as much attention to the threats and
calumnies of the Northern Abolitionists as We of
the South do. We intend to whip them into a
peaceable frame of mind, before we get through
with them, and if they choose to pitch into John
Bull in the Meantime, it will be all the worse for
them. They will be thrasbed SO badly that some
honest and decent ideas may possibly get into
their heads.

HAMPTON, VIRGIHGA.-The following. compiled
by friend, fir ON the Historical Collections of
Virginia, will be read with interest:
Hampton, the county seat of Elizabeth CITY
county, is situated on Hampton Roads, So miles
Southeast Of Richmond Is miles from Norfolk and
q from Yorktown.
1t is an old town, and one of historic interest.
Its site was first visited by Captain John Smith, in
1907, on his first exploratory voyage up the Poto-
mac, previous to the settlement of Jamestown
Burk says: While engaged in seeking fit place
for the first settlement, they met five of the natives
who invited them to their town, KeCOnghtan or
kichotan, where Hampton now stands Here
they were feasted on cakes made of Indian
corn, and RECALLED with tobacco and dance In
return they presented the natives with beads and
other trinkets." The Episcopal Church is the
Oldest public building in the town and is said to
be the third Oldest in the State.
Hampton was attacked by the British under
Lord Dunmore, in the Revolutionary war and was
repulsed by the citizens, aided by Colonel Wood
ford, with 100 mounted riQemen of the CulpGDer
Battalion, who poured such d we'll directed fire into
the attacking transports that it was impossible to
get man to staad att the helm, and the commander
plunged into the water and escaped TO the opposite
shore
Admiral Cockhurne, in June, 1873 after being
repulsed in his attack on Norfolk by the gallant
defence Of Craney Island proceeded to attack
Hampton, which he captured and delivered up to
unrestrained pillagn by the Suders for two days
a movement OF shame and disgrace to the British
nation.

REDUCTION IN RENTs.-ln other cities since the
inception of the present difficulties, landlords,
knowing the stagnatel state Of trade have reduced
the heavy rents in the business streets to Oue.haf
of former rates. As Memphis suffers to some ex-
tent from the same causes that depress other
cities, her landlords would do well to ntermit at
least portion of their exorbitant demands till the
war is over 'Tis not right that our merchants
should be paying rents such as they paid
when peace, dollars and trade regned supreme
