TEE PoToMAo oBLooKADED.-The Richmond
Examiner says the Potomac has been effect
ually closed by powerful batteries, and the
water avenue TO Washington under strict
blockade. The force in defense of the bat
teries is sble to. defy all corners, and should
any of Lincoln's craft hereafter attempt the
navigation Of the river, they are very apt to
be sunk.

FLAX CoTToN.-If King Cotton is not likely
to be dethroned by his uncrowned rival,
Flax, he is destined to get a severe poke in
the ribs, which will make his seat uneasy.
We have seen several specimens of the new
commodity to day, which come nearer to the
genuine article than any that have yet fallen
under our notice. They are to be seen at
the office Of Latson & Abbott, No. 149 Water
street, where fabrics of the same material are
also to be inspected. Flannel, calico, drill
ing and thread have all been made of the new
fax fiber, and with a remarkable degree of
perfection. New processes for preparing the
fiber give great encouragement to those who
ere embarked in business. Mills for the
manufacture have already been erected in
New York and in New England, and will
soon be in operation, not only working the
flex by itself into fabrics, but working it in
connection with wool and cotton. American
ingenuity is about TO succeed in q line which
the English and French have hitherto failed.

INACTIVITY OF THE SOUTHERN ARMY.-A
letter in the Savannah (Ga) NewS, dated
August 27, says:
The chief topic here is the inactivity Of
the army. Much criticism has been passed
upon General Beauregard, and those who are
believed to direct the movements of the
army, more particularly respecting his fail
ure 10 occupy or destroy Alexandria and
Washington City. Congress called for infor-
nation on this point, and the President re-
ferred the inquiry to General Beauregard
who, in his answer, placed the blame where
it really belonged. He had been for weeks,
almost beseechiDg the War Department to
supply him with the material needful to carry
on the war-men, ammunition, provisions
Wegons-but the quartermasters and com
missariat departments being in incompetent
bands, the day Of battle came, and found our
generals without the means of carrying the
army forward. Quite an acrimonious debate
sprung up in the House, upon the reading of
this answer, in which Messrs. Miles and
Chestnut, of South Carolina, who had been on
the staff Of General Beauregard, at Manassas,
and supported him in most gallant manner
during that eventful day, found it necessary
to vindicate their great chief from the as
persion which certain members were dis
posed to throw out against his military repu.
tation. Since the 2lst of July, many circum-
stances have combined to keep our troops in
O stationary position. Rain has fallen in
great quantities, and almost necessarily, rem
dering the roads impossible for heavy wagon
transportation, and the marching of large
bodies Of troops, and there has been a great
deal of sickness among our soldiers-prob-
ably twenty per cent are at this time
unfit for duty. Our generals, however, have
been strengthened by new accessions almost
every day, and the railroads continue to
transport regiment after regiment.

they are not satisfactory, and show the
workings of secret consciousness that this
is not the way that a great and respectable
people should carry on an important and
solemn war. These plans are che product of
vindictiveness, not of sense of right; and
victories won through their means will
neither rebound to our honor, nor inure to
our benefit.
What is the occasion of this strange de
parture from that state of feeling which
should prevail among people as far ad-
vanced in civilization and Christianity as we
profess to be ? 1t is the result, in part of
old and bitter party feelings, and in part of
impatence to have the war brought to an
end-the latter intensified by a knowledge
of the unftness of the Government for the
huge task that it has undertaken to perform.
We long to return to our ancient ways. The
state Of war is iIksome TO us-the more so
because of our want of habitude. We see
the little prospect there is of the accomplish
ment of this great contract by such war as is
likely to be carried on under the direction OF
the Administration of Mr.. Lincoln: and,
therefore, greedily attach ourselves to the
train of every new man, however untried
who promises to bring some fresh energy to
the work, and rashly iudorse every new pro.
ject, however unpromising or illegitimate
that seems likely to aid US in beating our
enemies. We forget that great people
must do its work in a great way--that in
such transactions, the means are part of the
end and that it is not enough for our enc
mics to be beaten, but that it is incumbent
for us, if we desire any benefit from the
event, to beat them in fair, open, honorable

Rebels.
The Richmond correspondent of the Mem
phis Appeal, writing under date OF Septem-
Der 6, says;
But while the Yankee journals nre glorify-
ing the Yankee general, it is gratifying to US
to be assured that every effort is making by
the Confederate Government to retrieve, as
far as possible, the updeniable reverse of
Fort Hatterss. Not a soldier, as I hare said
before, apiU be WithdrGtCB from the army ofthe
liotCmac IN consequence, nor aUiD the forces at
Norfolk or Yorktown be tpeakened for the de.
fenSeS of North Carolina. We have troops
enough unemployed to drive back any body
of men that shall attempt TO get a footing on
the main land, and they are in readiness for
the service. An eminent citizen of Rich
mond, educated at West Point, has been ten
tered the command of the defensive opera
tions in that quarter, with the rank of Brig
adierGeneral, and will probably go thither
in a very few days. AS yet his acceptance
of the position is in allegiance, but if he de-
clines some one else, equally we'll qualified,
and quite as little in mortal terror of Boba-
dill, will be entrusted with the command.
There is a resolute purpose to repair the
mischief, and this will be done.
The Richmond correspondent of the Peters
burgh Express writes under date of the 9th
Our enterprising townsman, Joseph R
Anderson, has been appointed Brigadier
General and assigned TO the department o.
| North Carolina. He embarked on the
Southern train this afternoon for Newbern
A large number of his friends congregated al

riotic cause in which he has embarked. Gen
eral Anderson will make capital officer
He is graduate Of West Point, where he OBJ

From CUBA-We Confederates Not Re
cognized The correspondent of the New
York Times, writing from Havana under
date of September 10, says:
"The great event in these thirteen days
has been the order issued by the Spanish
Government, and privately given to the ad-
ministrators of the several Custom. houses of
the island, to allow free entry to the vessels
OF the Confederate States of America in all
the ports of the Island, and to be admitted to
discharge and receive cargoes, as belonging
to nationality not get recognized, but hav-
ing all the privileges of foreign vessels, with
out consular representations for the trans
action of their neediul business"
The Spanish Minister at Washington called
upon the Secretary of State on Saturday, to
explain that no recognition of the rebels is
intended by the action of the Captain Gen
eral, but that the terms of the Queens proc
lam alton will be enforced.

ORAToRY OF Hon. J6sEPH HoLr.-Hon.
Joseph Holt, late of the Postoffice and War
Department, delivered one of those eloquent
Union speeches, for which he is so distin.
guished, at Irving Hail. in this city, on the
evening of the third inst. Robert J. Walker
once remarked in our presence, that Mr..
Holt was "the most eloquent man in the
world." Governor said we, "that is saying
a great deal" l know it is" replied Mr.
Walker, "but it is nevertheless true" We
never heard public speaker, not excepting
Henry Ward Beecher, who produced more
thrilling effect upon an audience than Mr..
Holt. The great secret of this il, that both
these orators speak from the heart. The in
fuence which Judge Holt is everywhere
exerting upon the Union cause is very
powerful. By the way, all our living Ex-
Postmaster. Generals, as far back as we can
remember, are savagely down on rebellion,
namely. Hon. G. A. Wickliffe, Hon. Cave
johnson, Judges Colamer and Hall, Mr.. Holt,
ard Hon. Horatio King. We need hardly
add the name of the present worthy head OF
the Department as one of the most devoted
and viRilant champions of the Union cause
with which the country is now honored.-

Mr. EDITOR: Last summer I in Montreal,
Canada on the day when the Prince of Wales was
received by the subjects of his illustrous mother,
Queen Victoria. | was at the landing-was one
among thousands who witnessed his triumphant
march through the city upon that great gala day
Montreal had been weeks preparing for the coming
Prince and she made very handsome exhibition of
her 10y atty to her future King. The Boston Fusil-
liers a splendid company Of Infantry had been in
vited there for the occasion, and as II. r. H., with
the long retinuc Of soldiers societies and citizens
wound their way up from :he triumphal arch at the
landing, stationed at the corner leading into Notre
Dame street were the Boston Fusilliers. When the
Prince and suite arrived, the German band struck
I'D God Save the Quecn." compliment gracefully
acknowledged by those for whom it was intended,
and then falling into line the rear the Company
passed IN procession to Victoria Bridge. Preceding
the procession in carriage, with several gentlemen
" from the States" we had arrived at the bridge
some time in advance of the procession. When 1t
did arrive we had a most favorable opportunity for
witnessing the very interesting proceedings. We
attentive listeners to the address OF welcome to
the Prince and also to his very brief, though excel
lent response. The two speeches were read in the
open provided expressly for the occasion-the
Boston FuSiers occupying the platform alongside.
One by one the officers were introduced, the Prince
bowling very gracefully, chapeau in hand. The
ceremony ended with nine cheers for the Queen and
six for the Prince, given by the Company, and fol-
lowed by God Save the Queen" by the band.
And what next? Ask the free citizens of the
United States of America who were there from all
the glorious phalanx-ask them, one by one, when
:" Hail Columbia" and that other national air which
has warmed the hearts of the brave patriots on
many bloody battle-ield-time honored " Yankee
Doodle"-and when above all, the banner of the
stars and stripes hoated proudly, what would be
the response? Why, sir, it was the proudest day
of my life our national airs my country flag,
honored and upheld on British soil And, sir, let
it not be said are the first to strike the blow
Let us give up none of our embems, let us stand by
the right stand by our Whole country stay the rash
hand wherever uplifted; and to those who have left
the great national family let offer the words Of
wisdom and Cancellation, for believe the strength
of the Union guarantees far than dismembered
fragments thereof
