SIR II understand that the Collector
of the port of Louisville, has represente
that you are the general agent of the
United States Government at this port,
exercising supervisory control over all
shipments by water from Louisville. /
further understand that the application of
the Quarter Master of the State troops, for
a permit to ship necessary equipments for
the State forces at Columbus, Kentucky,
you refused your sanction after the Collec.

claim the right to prevent the State of
Kentucky from exercising the clear right
of furnishing her own militia with what is
necessary for their equipment, and that

The FEELING AT THE SoUTH.--TAe N
York World says ID @ j7 H
A gentleman, established at New Or
leans, arrived yesterday in this city. He
says that the feelings against the North are
intense and vehement; that the troops Of
the Confederate States consist largely OF
planters sons, accustomed to the use Of
firearms and to fatigues, aud are excellent
soldiers. The people Of the South are
much less excited than those of the North
they have a sense of strength, and do not
at all doubt OF the success Of their cause.
There is no lack of provisions; according
to his report the crops are excellent and
abundant. They rely On the importance
Of their cotton crop. Europe must have
cotton, and will interfere forcibly for it,
New Orleans has never been so quiet, 80
peaceable, as since April last no MUIR
ders nor assassinantions have tecn COM
mitted as before. Their available forces
are moving to the North. Money will be
raised in the South, he says, with more
facility than in the North, as the South is
unanimous in carrying on the struggle
aud disposed to make sacrifices.

The Recognition of the Confederate
.Statesby Great Britain and FFance.--Tbe
fact that the leading powers of Europe
are dispatching their fleets to America,
and that Great Britain has ordered three
or four full regiments to Montreal and
Quebec, in Canada, is beginning to fully
arouse The fears of the North. That Sec
tion, by its control of the telegraph, and
the foreign news, has thus far succeeded
in suppressiug the truth in regard to the
position Of England and France, but the
following extracts from the Paris cores.
pondence Of the Independence Beige are
to the point:
told you that Mr.. Rost, Deputy to
Europe from the Southern seeded States,
appeared to have returned very we'll sat
ished with his trip to London. l can now
give you some details. Mr.. Rost has OBJ
tanned from Lord Palmerston the iosmal
promise of the recognition of the South
ern States at a period more or less remote
Perhaps the English Minister had, as
by-view, the intention OF waiting to see
whether the seeded States will be able to
resist the efforts of which those of the
North are going to attempt against them.
According to the impression brought
away by Mr.. Rost, there was no under
standing between France and England in
regard to q Simultaneous recognition OF the
Southern States. But it appears that the
recognition will be made separately by
these two powers. 1t is foresoon that this
determination of the English Govern.
ment would excite lively irritation in
the Northern States. | do not know
whether it is supposed that that irritation
will go as far as a declaration Of war
against England by those States But
am pretty positive that the British Gov
ernment is preparing for any emergency.
The English forces in Canada and Nova
Scotia are being largely increased.

ped at Evansville and at Cairo, and not
allowed to proceed unless the Collectors Of
those ports we're satisfied. Re also told
us that he supposed his consent would be
sufficient to secure the safe transit of the
articles TO Columbus, but that he bad heard
suspicious reports about the State Guard I;
that il was well known that Gov. Magofin
was suspected, aud that he was therefore
unwilling to take any action in relation to
the matter
We assured him that the articles we
wished to ship would not be carried out Of
the State ; that they were for the sole use
of Kentucky troops acting under the laws
of Kentucky on Kentucky soil He said
1t made no difference 10 him whose troops
they were, or how they we're acting; If he
suspected them, he would not consent to
anything being shipped to them, no mat
ter whether it was paper of needles, a
hogshead Of meat, or camp kettles. His
whole conversation was cunning and eva
sive. At times he denied that his author
ity was superior to that Of the Collector
but from it we believe that, if the articles
are shipped by water, they, will not be
permitted to reach Columbus, notwith-
standing the permit of the Co!le,tor Of
this port Wethink there will be more
danger of their being lost if shipped by
the river than if sent by rail through Ten

There is sentiment pervading here a.

Still it is the feeling, and one which, |
believe from common rumor, the President
